DR.. LEYDS rs CONFIDENT
Says Beers Have No Occasion for
Mediation and That BeleaGuered
British Are Merely Prisoners.

BERLIN. Jan. 27.-The North German
Gazette this afternoon says Dr. Leyds, dip
lomatic agent Of the Transvaal, who has
arrived here for the celebration of the
nr'peror's birthday. was received by Count
Won Buelow, minister of foreign affairs to-
day. The Lokal .Anzeiger publishes the re-
port Of an interview with Leyds, in which
he is quoted as saying his presence in Ber-
lin has nothing to do with politics. but is
due merely to an invitation to diplomatic
dinner, which he had received from the
imperial chancellor. He proposed to re-
main some days, but had no political de-
signs.
Regarding mediation. Leyds said. the
Beers had no occasion to appeal to any one.
Everything was going splendidly. AS to the
conclusion of peace his personal opinion
was that Great Britain would have TO re-
turn large portion OF the territory she
had seized from the Beers and the federal
republics would. of course, obtain every
guarantee that not hair of the heads of
their kinsmsn would suffer.

UNCLE SAM'S CREDIT.

The speech Of Mr. Roberts, treasurer
Of the United States, delivered before
the bankers of Virginia at their recent
session which was held in the city OF
Richmond, was most excellent one.
1t quickened the pulse of every patri-
otto American citizen to know that the
financial standing of this government
is better than that of any other nation
OF earth, and it is gratifying also to
know that some Of their fellow-citizens
can borrow money at per cent, but
why the number is so limited gives
some Of the rest of us great concern.
If the average citizen could borrow
money at 2 per cent just as his govern
ment does, we mean of course to the
extent of his ability to give security
we would then enjoy a prosperity i'm
the land general in its scope and wide
spread in its blessings. But will the
happy day ever come? We wish MIR.
Roberts or some other prophet would
tell us. 1t may not be best that it
should come, however, and if not, then
let us bear the burden and get bless
ing out of it, 1t would not do for all
of us to be rich, for there must be some
"hewers of wood and drawers of
water" and some people to do news
paper work.

THE ECLIPSE.

ION the 2Sth of this month the moon
will cover the face Of the sun and shut
out every ray Of light from half mil.
lion of people in our country. The sun
is enormously larger than the moon,
for the latter is servant of the earth, to
carry candle on certain nights. 1t
was once part of the earth, but like a
prodigal, it left home, or rather, like a
bad boy, "cut of without a shillingp
and kept at arms length. The mo-
ton OF the moon is an attempt to come
back to the earth, fall on us, but our
planet is flying so fast that the effort
to drop down on New York or into the
Pacific results in the moon revolving
around our globe, which, runs from
under Luna before it lights
The above is from the Richmond
Christian advocate, and as is his wont.
whatever the brilliant editor writes or
says he writes and says in captivating
style. you want to see darkness
during the day" you must be in the
belt, and Norfolk is the most accessible
point for us. Mans knowledge of
earth, sea and sky is wonderful even
now, but the wise men are making
earnest preparations to learn more, es-
pecially Of old Sol, in this moment of
darkness. They will tell us all they
may know, and yet will still confess
there is so much to know. This is true.

During the siege Of Mafeking, which
lasted for seven months, by consent Of
Briton and Boer, the Sabbath days
were not desecrated by the shocking
sounds incident to battle. For one day
out of seven peace reigned DER the con-
tending armies, rigid guard duty was
relaxed, there was no scream Of shell
or whizz of minnie, and men were al
lowed to worship God according to
the dictates of their consciences, with
none to modest or make afraid. What
an impressive lesson this should be to
our government, our corporations and
our citizens.
Remember the Sabbath day to keep
it hOlyn is not obsolete.
