Ind.frer,nt Toward the Fair Sex

Cecil Rhodes is keen observer, philoso- pher. shrewd of wit, not given to long speeches, brave and lavish with money when he thinks it profitable to be so. His countenance is not an encouraging study for the sentimental. In the knowledge of South Africans he has never shown attention to any woman. Disappointed-,n-love stories about him go the rounds at intervals, but are never verified. There seems to be lit tie room in his makeup for that sort or thing. He treats the gentler sex with in- difference and even rudeness. For his two sisters alone does he exhibit fondness, and they, in turn have the reputation of being ''manhaters.'
 NciJhing aggravates MT. Rhodes more than for one of the Chartered company employees to get married l came down from Beira on a German steamer Wruh newly welded couple Who were returning to England most dejected. The bridegroom had been a trusted lieutenant in Rhodesia, and went home on "a leave of absence at his generals suggestion. When he returned with a rosy-cheeked bride, however, 2 Rirodes received him coldiy, and remarked' shortly that the climate in South Africa was ruinous ito a womans beauty.

His Faith in the Anslo-saxon

MT. Rhodes does not spend great sums on philanthropy unless improving the con- dition of the African native may be so con- strued. Religious projects also engage lit- tile of his sympathy. MT. Rhodes concep- ton of religion is not adherence to any particular creed. but mans fixed idea as to his duty and destiny here, his vital re- lations to the universe Rhodes will tell you frankly that he believes he was put on earth to develop South Africa with the aid of Anglo-Saxons. I was about to say English and Americans

AWAITED in strange and exciting lit
erature." The Washington Post tells
this OF him. n il is a very fiattering
and engaging picture:
Representative W. T. Crawford. of
North Carolina, is an omnivorous read
er OF the literature OF the ring. Do you
KNOW he SAYS. that / have e about
everything in that line / could lay my
hands on from the time that Heenan
and Sayers fought down to the present
day. 1 am not very much Of a sport,

erS and their battles have a great fas-
cination for me.
The North Carolinian is able TO con-
verse about the characteristics OF by
gone fighters for an hour al a time. He
does not claim knowledge o. the pro-
f~essional jargon OF the ring, like
Jumping you man in de Stats and

THE WAR AGAINST THE Beers

The African war shows some real
gain for the British. French gained a
victory of some Importance. He had but
1000 men. Thus far the Beers have
not met the British man for man or in
the open field. They have avoided hi
and it has proved gooG tactical skill.
In beseiging towns defended by a small
British force they have not succeeded
well. The New York Tribune says:
AT Mafeking, al Kimberley and at
Ladysmfth the Beers have for weeks
been beseiging British forces from one
fourth to .one-tenth their own size, and
they have thus far beer held in check.
In view of that, they are not likely to
advance upon fortified British camps
nearly II quite equal in garrison II
their W armies.
1T is reasonable TO aSSume then, tina.
the Beers will remain upon the defen-
sive. except for continuing their ait
tempts to take the three beseiged towns
and will await the British advance"
Soon or late the coarse of the var
Will be changed.%L Lord Roberts knows
how to fight. The Beers will have TO
fight some times not behind breast
works. a London cable dispatch of the
1st instant stated that the Beers had
over 5000 men engaged with Genera
French'S 1000. The London Standard
takes the position that until the Tuge-
la has been crossed and Ladysmith re-
lieved 1t would be idle to deny that the
political position in Cape Colony is one
of very great danger. and il, unhap-
PLY, General Butler is again defeated
it will be necessary to dispatch 100;a00
additional men to keep the Dutch in
order"
Already according to the dispatch
Lord Roberts has on the way enough
men,, with those now in the field, 10
swell his command to 200,0 00. 1t says:
Thirty thousand are now afloat or
ready to embark. Military experts, in
view of wha1 these figures mean canno
see nov the British can fail TO crush
the Beers by mere force of numbers"
The Beers must max hay rapidly
while the sun shines. Thus far the
war has abous killed for the time b.
johannesburg and Bloemfontein. Amer
lean Consul Stowe, at Cape Town,
writes:
Johannesburg, the largest CONNER
cial centre in South Africa, has, so far
as trade is concerned, ceased to exist.
This once busy busting city, produc-
ing monthly caused fifteen tons of gold
and yearly $50, 0oo. 900 worth, is SILENT"
The British gold hunters, who really
crave the war, have packed their slts
and skipped.

NORTHERN OPINIONS AS TO TEE
ELECTION TfI~ EAR

There are in h north many republi-
can politicians and newspapers who do
not favor McKinley's non nation, as
there are some who do not believe that
he has a dead sure thing in the mat
ter of being elected. One ''chrewd re-
publican politician" from the northwest
according to an instructive editorial IN
the New York Evening Post, not =
democrat, has been discussing the
chances and probabilities. He thinks
that there may be contingencies that
will give Colonel Bryan more than a
fighting chance of being elected" The
figures used to prove the case are OF
course we'll nOwn. They amount TO
this, that Mckinley secured 271 of the
447 votes in the electoral college in 1896,
and polled owe $780, 900 more ballots
than Bryan, while nearly 135, 900 other
votes were diverted from the demo-
cratic candidate by the Palmer and
Buckner cke In other words, Bryan
waS in a minority Of almost three
quarters of a million ballots, to say
nothing of the votes cast for the pro-
hibitioniSts and the socialist-labor can

any one save only through the divine
power and illumination of the Holy

ing these verses of Paul., says: Learn
hence, That as spiritual wisdom, or the
saving knowledge of divine mysteries,
is necessary to a Christian; so those
who w a good measure of this grace
already received, ought not to sit down
satisfied with it, but aspire after farth-
er measures and degrees of it; spiritual
knowledge is as necessary for increas-
ing grace, as it is for working in the
SOUL" The law of true religion is
growth in grace. The true Christian
is always progressing, growing in
grace, going on to perfection" The
more he knows, the more ne receives,
the more of the illumination of the
Spirit, which is wisdom and revela-
tion," the more humble he is and the
less boastful of his attachments in the
Divine life. We stop here at the 18th
