And London Newspapers Charac
terize the Statements as
Boosting.

LONDON. Feb. 1.-When the nation
had almost resigned itself to the fall CT
Ladysmith, there comes from all quar-
ters all indication that General Butler
will make another attempt to relieve
the bcsicged place. If the Daily Nails
report OF General Buffers statement,
that he hoped to be in Ladysmith within
week, could be implicitly relied on,
news Of further serious fighting would
be expected shortly. But the papers
are loath to believe what the St. James
Gazette characterizcsas "unwarrantablc
boastlng" is true. Moreover, the war
office throws cold water OH the dispatch
by issuing a statement that it has no
news contirmatory of such IL move as
General Buffers speech indicates. Yet,
the dispatches from Ladysnith and
Cape Town give strong impression
that there Is something more than ru.
NOR III all these reports. So, while all
definite opinion must await further
news, 1t does not seem at all unlikely
that another desperate effort will be
made to succor General White.

DEFENSE is WEAK.
British Ministers Criticised For Their
Speeches at Opening of Parliament.


Speeches ut Opening, of Parliament.
LONDON, Feb. 1.-The London press
is unanimous in criticism Of the weak
defense Of the ministers to the bitter at
taclls Of the opposition in both houses
Of parliament. Not one Of the speakers
is considered to have risen to a height
bctitting the gravity of the situation.
While Lord Salisbury professcd ignor-
ance regarding the Boer strength and
ornaments Mr.. Balfour and Lord Lands
downe declared that these were accu-
ratcly known. Not one Of the minis
ters had Il word Of enlightenment to Of
fer regarding either the past or the flu.
ture and the leaders Of the opposition,
while perfectly ready to attack and crit
icize the government, had no suggestion
to advance matters in South Africa nor
an alternative policy to expound.
Mr.. Chamberlain preserved discreet
silence. though throughout the speeches
of Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman and
Mr.. Balfour he
Displayed Unusual Excitement,
embarrassing both by frequent CON-
ments. He kept turning towards Mr..
Balfour during Sir Henry's speech with
suggestions for argument to which Mr..
Balfour did not seem to respond with
much enthusiasm.
Mr.. Balfom's speech was repetition
of his rather fippant orations outside
the house. Lord Salisbury was pale and
looked careworn, showing traces of his
recent bereavement. Lord Lansdowne
seemed much depressed.
Lord Rosebery's speech was the only
one which made strong impression
and it is interpreted in many quarters to
indicate readiness in the event of a
change Of ministry to assume the bur.
dens Of the premiership. His remarks
were uttered with great force and
earnestness. He demanded of the gov.
ernment what it was going to do and
added that the country would shrink
from no sacrifice which the burning
emergency might demand.

MOBII.IZING HER FLEET.
Precautionary Measures Taken by thu
British, Cabinet.

British, Cabinet.
LONDON, Feb. lit is now knowr
that the cabinet devoted much of it's dis
cussion on Saturday to the mobilization
of the fleet. Nothing was settled except
a measure Of further security to the
home coasts has been obtained by the
naval preparations and that the Eighth
division should not be sent to South
Africa. The admiralty issued orders
that the Channel squadron, instead OF
leaving Portland this week for Gibraltar
as previously directed, shall assemble on
Feb. s off Eddystone and Bantry for IA
fortnight's exercise off the Irish coast,
thus keeping in home waters for time.
This decision to delay the Eighth divi.
sion at time when rcinforccments are
SO urgently required may mean only
that transports are not yet available and
that the
Division May Yet Embark
when the shipping is available. Their
detention, if such Il course was deter
mined upon, would be of the utmost i'm
portance. There is nothing in the intel
ligence possessed by the public to cause
the cabinets prolonged discussion of
this matter and the Inference is that the
fleet may be mobilized as Il general
warning to other countries to keep their
hands off the Transvaal situation OF
that the ministry may have definite
knowledge that the neutral powers pur.
pose to take advantage elsewhere while
England is busy in South Africa. One
thing is certain-10,O00 men all ready
go to South Africa are detained fcl
reasons Of which the public has 1t
knowledge.
There is talk Of AZ military battalons
being embodied. These are all Of the
militia not previously warned. A SHARP
lookout is being kept OH volunteers fo1
the various South African regiments.

1t was almost the only time he had
spoken of his work since that scene in
the studio four months before. He had
passed those months alone, working all
day and far into the night.
Rizpah guarded the door of the studio
and guarded Marks secret, so that no one
suspected the fears that held her. But the
strain wore her, until her face matched
Marks in its haggardness. And yet the
light in his eyes when he came from the
studio, the exaltation that conquered his
weakness, gave her hope. His work salts
fed him. His restless moods were over.
He was like a man sighting triumph. She
shared his triumph in secret. When his
picture had won fame and success. the
evil spirit would go out of him, and he
would came back to her.
But for three days and three nights he
had been behind that locked door, and she
had sat on the stairs in an agony of dread.
The wood was like coffin lid hiding her
dead from her. But she silenced her fears
and quoted the beating of her heart. He
would come out as soon as he had finish
ed. The picture of Death would be the
Angel of Life.
1t was very still in the studio. She had
not heard a sound for hours. She leaned
against the door. her ear to the panel.

of joy, even of love. But she had no
regret for what she had done. She would
have borne the pain and disillusion of her
marriage hundred times over for Marks
sake. And If this picture were triumph,
had she not helped towards 1t?
