ENCOURAGED BY
THE BOER WAR.
Future Of the Alpine Republic Be-
NeYed to be As
cured.
THE REPUBLIC HAS DECLINED
To Bind Itself to o Provision Of
Tho Hague Convention That Il
Would Prevent War.

LONDON, Dec. 1f!-DoubtlesS the ca
BILE has already informed you that the
Swiss Confederation has declined to
ratity by the vote Of It's legislative bod,
les that part Of the resolutions Of The
Hague convention which appeared to
fetter or curtail the right Of nations to
resort to the lcvee en- masse for the
defense OF home and country. The
Swiss people have in fact been greatly
encouraged in regard to their national
future by the long struggle in South
Africa between a great power and two
small and poor republics, and they are
strenuously resolved to increase in ev-
cry possible way their powers of resist
ance to aggression by the powerful
states by which the, Confederation is
absolutely surrounded.
It is in pursuance of this resolution
that the levee en- masse will be retained
in its most rigorous form. and that the
work of Matchmaking the Swiss rail-
ways is at this moment being pushed
with all possible speed. AS recently as
last Wednesday the national council at
Berne discussed the scheme Of taking
over the Central Railway Company's
system. and ultimately ratified. by 1O1
votes to 8, the agreement between the
federal council and the company. This
agreement has already been approved
by the stockholders assembled in gen.
ercl meeting. by the executive board OF
federal railways. by the federal council
and by tho national council. All that
remains to complete the transfer to
the nation is the sanction Of the council
Of states. and this will be surely given
during the present session.
State Railroads.
That will complete the first stage in
the acquisition by the state of the five
great railway systems Of Switzerland, a
policy which was authorized by the
Swiss people in referendum by an over
whelming majority. 1t is hoped that
the stockholders OF the various compan-
les will be patriotic enough to come to
terms with the government without I'M

Special reports upon the war in South
Africa are being prepared for the in
formation and guidance OF the Swiss
council Of national defence. and it Is
thought to be extremely probable that
next year the Confederation will spend
large sums Of money, large that is to
say for such a very frugal people. in
improving the national ornaments and
the military organization. In the light Of
experience gained from Beers and Bril-
tons.

with medicines. Last summer my lit
tie daughter had the dysentery in lis
worst form. We thought she should

of, but nothing seemed to do her any
good. | saw by an advertisement in
our paper that hamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was
highly recommended and sent and got
a bottle at oEce. 1t proved to be one
OF the very best medicines we ever had
in the house. 1t saved my little daugn-
ter's life. | am anxious for every
mother to know what an excellent
medicine it is. Had / known ii at first
it would have saved me great deal OF
anxiety and my little daughter much

A BIRD IN BIG BUILDING.-The
New York Life building has bird
mystery that is worrying the corps Of
janitors and engineers. The mystery
is to find the bird which has concealed
itself in the srched ceiling of the rotun-
da and is continually keeping up cry
for-help chirp. Although it is evident
that the sound comes from somewhere
above, no one has been able to lind the
bird. The head janitor believes the
bird is crippled and is attempting 10
attract attention in order to get help.
Although ladders have been used 10
find the bird the hiding place has not
been dscovered.-[New York Times.
