FINEST NEW YORK PULPIT.
Beautiful Work Lately Completed
for All Angels Episcopal
Church.

All Angels Episcopal church. West
End avenue and Eighty-frst street,
has just acquired what is described
as the finest pulpit in America. 1t
is the work of Karl Bitter. and was
given to the church by Mrs. Sarah
Cornell in memory of her husband
and two sons. The style of the pull
pit is italian renaissance. changed
slightly to conform with the interior
of the church, says the New York
Herald.
Standing against column, the pill
lar has for its foundation a repre-
sentation of Moses with the tablets
of law, and corbels presenting the
head of the prophets, intended to
symbolic that the Gospel preached
from the pulpit is based upon the law
and the prophets.
A choir rail, which leads up to the
pulpit rail and surrounds the pulpit
itself is decorated with a procession
of angels. Above the pulpit is can
opy of oak, surmounted by an angelic
figure holding trumpet, and forming
an apotheosis of what is begun below
in the procession.
There has also just been used for
the first time in the same church an
altar and reredos. erected by mem
bers of the Hoffman family in men,
ory of the most liberal patron of All
Angels church. the late Rev. DR..
Charles F. Hoffman. The altar is sur
mounted by canopy of brass, per-
haps the only one of the kind in this
country, although such are common
in northern Italy. The new rectory
of the parish, costing 100000, is al
most completed.

H. RAYMOND HAYS
Popular Young Man Dies at His Home in
ReWp9rt.

Again lit is the sad privilege of the
Leader to chorincle the death of one Of
Washington county's young men, that
of H. Raymond Hays, which occurred
yesterday at the home of his parents,
Mr., and Mrs. Harry Hays ar Newport.
Death was caused by complication of
troubles, chief among which was an
abscess of the liver.
Deceased was about 22 years of age.
and one of the most popular young
men in Newport, where he counted his
friends by the score, for his was a
most excellent character and to know
him was to like him.
He was am alumnus of the Newport
High School, from which he graduated
with honor. He had been a resident
of Newport nearly all his life until
little over year ago when he Went
to Poughkeepsie, N, Y, where he took
a course in Eastman Business College.
Later he located in New York City,
where he was connected with a large
piano firm. 1t was here that he con-
tracted the troubles which proved IA
tai. "A little over two months ago he
came home to take short vacation.
and rest up, but he was never able to
return.
His DEATH was not unexpected, for
he had been gradually failing and for
some time it has been known that his
case was hopeless, but is none the less
hard to bear. just why young man

thus taken away, is one Of the strange
dispensaltlons of Providence which

who knowest that it Is SO, can recon-
Ncile us to the belief that 1T is best.
To the bereaved family and espec
tally to the mother, who is nearly
prostrated with grief a sorrowing
community extends its heartfelt SYM
pathy.
The funeral will be held at Newport
this afternoon at 2 o'clock.

In SOUTH AFRICA.

LONDON, Feb. lathe latest dis-
patches from the front show the real rea-
son of General Buffers retirement and
his intention TO try again. They also
quite destroy the comforting and in
genious theory that the movement was
an elaborate feint to facilitate the main
advance of Lord Roberts, a theory
which obtained acceptance largely be.
cause of Mr.. Baliour's misleading
statements to Parliament. The SEEM
ingly useless reticences and prevarica-
tons on the part Of the government
and the war Office are beginning to be
criticised severely.
The London newspapers have be-
come accustomed to checks, and main
tain a hopeful tone. The situation,
however, is much more threatening
than it seemed to be week ago.
Proofs OF the terrible strength and mo-
bility of the Boer artillery, together
with the rumor that Gen. Joubert is
taking the initiative with the object Of
cutting Gen. Buffers communications
are in no ways reassuring. Even the
most sanguine persons begin to see
that it is quite hopeless to expect the
relleI OF Ladysmltn, Wnlle IL Is ear
that if it be impossible for Butler to
reach Ladysmith it is equally impossi.
BILE for the garrison, exhausted by sick
ness and privations, to cut their way
out.
Startling intelligence comes from
Kimberly in the Cape newspapers re-
cei' ed today by mail. 1t appears that
since January s the rations have been
for the most part horseilesh, 80 repug-
nant to women and children that many
refuse to eat. 1t also appears that the
death rate has been heavy and that the
privations of the garrison have been
increasing steadily. The news is
startling because the censor has not
allowed it to be cabled. Possibly such
conditions explain the presence of
Lord Roberts at Modder river and the
apparent preparations for an advance
at that point.

Lady Moreover, General Butler
remembers that hi3 army is the only
army for the defence Of the rest of Ma
tai. Therefore, he decided to withdraw
aud try elsewhere.
"Another fierce attempt will be made
to force the Tugela. Great Britain
must realize the ugly fact that the re-
lief Of Ladysmith would strain an army
of 10000 and that 100000 men would
not be too many. The country, there.
fore, must be prepared for heavy loss
and perhaps disappointment.
Remembering that considerations
of honor, more than policy, demand
ceaseless efforts to relieve Ladysmith
the whole army, despite disappoint-
ments and retreat, regards General Bull
Ter with sympathy and trust, such as
are seldom seen even in fortunate cir
cumstances.
"The security of Southern Natal is
our important consideration. The me-
cessity of obtaining control OF Delagos
Bay is very apparent. The ingress of
foreigners and war material is cease
less"
riosity is felt as to Buffers report OF
his retirement from Vaal Krantz.
Nothing has been made public, but the
report is known to have been received.
1t is rumored that the cabinet is afraid
to issue it because Butler says the re-
lief of Ladysmith is a physical impos-
sibility, but is willing to try again for
sentimental reasons.
LONDON, Feb. 12.-General Roberts
reports to the war office that he has re-
ceived the following despatch from
Butler under date of February "Ii
was necessary in selling Wal Krautz
to entrench it as pivot to further
operations. However, after trying two
days to entrench, found it impractic

tions dominate ours. 1t is essential to

smith has run up against these natural
obstacles and Butler has been again
compelled to turn back and recross the
Tugela. They had captured one of
these natural fortresses, but it was q
repetition of the capture of Spon Knp.
The position was under the fire of the
Beers from the latter eminence on the
left and from another on the right.
There were "kops" to The right and
"kloofs" 10 the left and "kopjes" in
front, volleying and thundering-a
whole series of intrenched and fortified
positions. These are defended by
rifles and artillery, deadly in the &C.
curacy of their fire and sweeping the
whole range of approach. SO Butler
finds himself baked again. Continued
advance would invite too great sac
rilice of life.

Hon. Thomas B. Reed said q few
years ago that this was billion dollar
country. To day it is two-billion dol
lar country. Last year, the foreign
commerce OF the United States exceed
ed two billion dollars in value, and the
official treasury figures for the first
week in February, 1900, show that, for
the first time in our history, the
amount of money in circulation in the
country exceeds two billion dollars. 1t
will not be forgotten when the time
comes for she people to vote again, in
national election, that it was Repub-
lican administration and Republican
Congress that first made it necessary to
use ten figures to show the business
condition of this, the most prosperous
country on earth. This is two-billion
dollar country. Impress that colossal
fact upon your minds, Democrats, Pop
ulists, Republicans, and people of any
other or no condition of political pref
erence or belief.

And so Bryan is coming back to Yer

down in Wiudham county. That is all
very nice. But the chances are that in
June, Bryan will. have his hook baited
for fish that never swim in Vermont
trout streams, and he will be too busy
in watching the bob" to come to Will

"wealthy New Workers." But why
should this denouncer Of wealth, this
par excellence champion Of the farmer,
or the poor man Of any condition of
servitude to trusts, or octopuses, or
wealth in any other hideous miep, be
the guest of wealthy New Workers
while in Vermont? Why doesn't be, if
he is coming to Vermont again, take up
his abode with some good Jackson (not

Vengeance and bloodthirstiness
seem to be the dominating sentiment
of the British mob and the Joe Cham
berlain contingent in the continued
prosecution of the South African war.
No more inspiring war cry than Gre
member Majuba Hill" is heard. But
the Beers are animated by memories
of the hangings at Scblaagter's Mex,
the multiplied hardships of the "Great
Trek" the expulsion from Natal, and
nearly hundred years OF experience of
the "uulimited despotism" that has
characterized British government in
South Africa. Is there "No hand on
high to shield the brave?"
