DUKE AS A PILGRIM.

New York, Dec. 2s.-A dispatch to the
Tribune from LondOn says:
The Duke of Norfolk headed band of
over 200 English pilgrims who have just
started for Rome. 1t has been alleged
that he is paying the travelling expenses
of the bulk of this party, but this Is
absurd The cost of the journey and stay
in Rome has been cheapened by tourist
agents until the figures are almost the
lowest on record for continental travel
Cardinal Vaughn will join the pilgrims
in Rome and the Pope will receive and
address them.

We have never been much given
to "feenance" nor the intricate

and warrant mathematics and
computation, and the Cherokee
system seems not to elucidate
matters. For instance there were
retired this last quarter Of the
fiscal year $104, 900 in round num-
bers Of Cherokee warrants. The
interest in round numbers on this
amount was $47, 900. OF course it
is really nothing to the Times, it
is nothing to nobody but the
Cherokees, but the system is
peculiar, perhaps proftable-for

STRAIGHT-FRONT CORSETS.

The straight front corset is very con-
spicuOus in the shops just now, and
that 1T is worn to a large extent is
shown by the figures of smart women,
whose gowns are cut in the latest Lrode
to agree with these stays.
Within the memory Of most of US who
have arrived at years of discretion the
appearance Of the female form divine
has changed at least three times We
are constantly startled by news that
waists and hips are to be worn smaller
or larger, an announcement that Is
coupled with other equally remarkable
anatomical intelligence, but these are
merely slight alterations that are die
tated by the fashions Of the day and
are not to be considered; the three
noted, however. We're so great as to be
worthy Of attention.
The women Of our mothers day had
small waists and large busts and hips.
Often the waist was quite out Of pro-
portion to the shoulders, and the belts
worn, If they showed any deviation at
all, were slightly higher in front than
In the back.
NOW artists and dressmakers declare
wehave reached he ideal because Of the
natural figure. The shoulders are broad
the waist pTOpnrtionate in size and
slanting in front, the line from bust to
waist is straight, and the former is low
and not displaced by high corsets, such
as were once worn.
The hips are "ot unnaturally large

THE THEATRE OF WAR.
To Catch the Adventurous Comm an.
does that Have Been Creating Mis-
ehief-The Power Of the Boer. ne.
lieved to be Deereasing-L London
Anxiousiy Awaits Favorable News
for the British.

London, April 17.-4:1s p. m.-Lord Rob-
erts has spread his net far and wide TO
catch the adventurous commandoes that
have been making mischief in the south
eastern part Of the State. The net has not
yet been drawn; but at the headquarters
Of Lord Roberts the impression exists
that the power OF the Beers is decreasing.
A Daily News correspondent reports them
deeing northward, a Standard correspond
ent reports them fleeing southeast; a
Daily Telegraph correspondent says that
some are going north and others south; {;
while a Morning Post representative says
II is not known what the Beers are do
ing.
Evidently the feeling at Bloemfontein
is that the dispositions of Lord Roberts
are such as to enable him - concentrate
a large force rapidly at any point. The
Beers being aware of this are presumed
to be thinking now chiefly of retreat.
The investment Of Wepener. according
to a special dispatch from BloeInfontein.
has absolutely been abandoned. AccoI ding
to Bethany dispatch the Beers are un-
able to retreat northward, because the
British strongly hold all roads.
Diverse reports come from Natal, one
asserting that the Doors have retired be-
yond the HiKEerssurS range and another
saying some of them are close to Lady
smith.
London waits confidently for almost i'm
mediate announcement of news favorable
to the British.
Distrust exists however, as to any
rapid. continuous advance toward Preto-
ria, chiefly on account of the lack Of
horses. many Of which die in the long voy-
ages. Letters from the Cape say that the
three days journey by rail is made in
open trucks, that the arrangements for
feeding and watering are inadequate, and
that the unfortunate animals break down
in consequence of these hardships.
Despite the energy of it's buyers abroad
the War Office foresees much difficulty
in supplying the enormous number OF
horses required.

THE SOUTHERN NEGOTIATING FOR
ANOTHER ROAD.

New York April 16.-J. P. Morgan &
Co., authorize the announcement that the
Southern Railway Company is negotiating
for the requirement of the Louisville.
Evansville and St. Louis Air Line, and a
plan for the reorganization of that COM
pany will be issued, based on an agree
ment by the Southern Railway to take
over the property after the reorganiza-
ton. An agreement has been reached with
the holders of the s., 600 of first mort
gage bonds by which they will receive par
in new per cent. bonds for the principal
and cash for an agreed amount of the
interest due on the old bonds.
A large proportion of the consolidated I
per cent. bonds of the company, which
are first mortgage on the west end OF
the road, have been purchased by inter
ests said to be friendly to the Southern
Railway. A decree for the sale of the en-
tire main line has been allowed under
foreclosure of these two mortgages. II
is therefore believed that the reorganiza-
ton will be promptly entered into.
