The Daughter of ''BObs. y

One of the most admired and
talked of young women in all
England to-day is Miss Ada Ed
wilma Stewart Roberts,, the eldest
daughter of Lord Roberts, famil-
iarly called "Bobs," Commander
in-Chief Of the Queens forces in
the Transvaal.
Miss Roberts has always been
popular, but since her fathers
victory over the intrepid and
daring Cronje she may be said to
occupy a peculiarly enviable po-
sition in the public eye.
She is the eldestof two daught-
ers, both of whom we're born in
India. They we're reared ia a
very atmosphere Of adventure,
for. during their childhood and
early girlhood. there was scarce
ly a year in which their father
did not take part in some des-
perately dangerous campaign.
For the past few years. how
ever. Lord and Lady Roberts and
their children have lived in Ire
land, on the outskirts of Dublin.
It is there that the daughter of
"Bobs" finds the greatest pleas
ure. as she, with her mother and
sister, occupy charming quarters
in the old Kilmainham Hospital,
the home of those Irish army
pensioners whose past services
entitle them to the privilege.
Miss Roberts has always taken
an active interest in the welfare
of these old soldiers. She has
at all times been interchangeable in
her kindness to the pensioners,
and nothing affords her more de-
light than to organize various
forms Of amusement for them.
"Bobs" daughter is, however,
popular with all sorts and condi-
tions Of me and women, and ia
this respect displays a tact that
is markedly democratic. She has
been especially fortunate in at
tracing the good opinion Of the
Queen, to whom she was pre-
sented several seasons ago.
Notwithstanding that English
men all over the world are at
this time singing the praises of
"Bobs," the Roberts household
is Ia a state Of gloom over the
untimeIy death Of Lord Roberts
only son, Lieutenant Frederick
Hugh Sherston Roberts, who was
one of the first to fall in the cam
paign for relief Of Ladysmith.
For his signal bravery at the
battle Of Colenso the Queen con-
ferred upon Lieutenant Roberts,
the Victoria Cross, after his
death-a very unusual proceed
ing. Her so doing marks the first
instance in the history Of the
cross wherein it has been borne
by father and son.

 QUEENS SPEECH TO BE COLORLESS There Will be a Short Refer ence to War. NO IDEA OF STOPPING WAR She Will Express Qualification at the Patriotic Offers of Various Troops to Help Fight
 the Boers

London, January 29-It has been learned speech at the re-assembling of parliament tomorrow will be colorless There will be a short reference to the war, chiefly con- fined to regrets at the terrible bloodshed and econiums of the men who have laid down their lives for their country. The whole proclamation indicates that there is not the slightest idea of giving up the war until Great Britain's ends are gained
 The speech will further say that rela- tions with all the foreign states are very friendly, and will express great pleasure and qualification at the patriotism shown by the colonies at critical period in send ing troops to South Africa, and at the pa- triotism existing in the empire generally. It will also express qualification at the offers of troops from India native chiefs, and will allude to the satisfactory comple- ton of the treaty relating to Samoa
 A cabinet minister, who was interviewed by reporter of the Associated Press, said:
 "I do not believe the session opening to- morrow will materiaNze into any serious controversy. Some of the Irish friends may try to expire on the floor, but I find in moments of serious national crisis, Irish eloquence has little effect and such ora- tions generally take a back seat. The da- tribes the government will douhtSass be little more vicious than formerly, but I believe sober-minded men of both parties realize, however much there may be to criticize, that the government is doing it's best and it would be most unpatriotic to attempt to tie its hands at such a time. We are not nervous as to the result Of the ses- sion"

MT. Hill, indignantly, ito charge the sec retary of the treasury with fraudulent in- tent Furthermore, if he had gone deeper into the investigation he would have as- certained that the city couldl not loose the taxes upon the property"
 Mir. Richardson replied in a two minutes speech. Neither MT. Hopkins nor MT. Hill, he said, had made any answer to his ques- ltlon as to why the secretary of-the treas ury had not taken paper credit for s3,265, 900 instead of $3,215.0OO. He also ques- tioned the right of the National City Bank, with capital of s7Oo0.O0o, to buy real tate to the amount of its capital. In clos ing the debate MT. Dalzell of Pennsylvania said the whole question of referring the subject to the ways and means committee had been used to renew charges that had been answered over and over again by none better than prominent democrats in the house and country.
 "Who are they?" cried several demo- crats.
 MT. Dalzell paid no heed to the cries. Tine resolution was adopted.
 A bill was passed to appropriate $60,000 for a military hospital at Fort Leaven- worth, Kan, and also bill to require pi- lots of steam vessels ito make oath to their applications for licenses, and providing penalties for perjury. The bill developed considerable opposition from members hay ing constituents engaged in small river traffic on the Ohio, Tennessee and Missis- sippi rivers.
 The house then considered the bill for the reorganization and improvement of the United States weather bureau, and consid- cred opposition to several features of the measure The house at 3:35 D. m. was forced to adjourn, leaving it the unfin- ished business
