The Queen Gives Out This Impor>

WAR OFFICE DOES NOT CONFIRM IT.
Lord Roberts Brilliant Strategy Does
Work General Butler Not Given
VlctOrs Laurels.

London, Feb. 2l.-The war office
declares that it is unable to substan-
tiAte the reports of the relief Of Lady
smith, but this does not prevent the
public from believing that the queen
has again forestalled the authorities
at Pail Mall and preferred to commu-
nicate the glad news direct to the
public, through the mayor of Wind
sor, just as yesterday she dramatically
announced through Lord w liam Ce-
oil, commander of the militia corps,
the tidinGs of Gen. Buffers success
hours before the war office was able to
relieve the anxiety of the united
kingdom. Nevertheless, as the queens
words are not actually quoted in to-
days announcement, official conflrma-
tion is eagerly awaited. Public in-
terest and anxiety swAys unceasingly
between Ladysmlth and Bloemfon-
tein. The practical relief of the form
er place is regarded as due more TO
Lord Roberts brilliant strategy il
drawing Off the Beers than to General
Bulles's numerous assaults, and The
news Of the results of the battle be-
tween Krtchenir and Cropje rs-in-
forced by forces thus drawn off
from Ladysmith, is expected al
most to synchronize WITH the an
nounoement that Gsp. Butler has
reached his objective The accom-
plishment of the latter event, howev-
er, isregarded with greater confidence
than is the ability of Kitchener to
thoroughly cripple Cronje.
Further details of .he attack made
by Col. PIumer's force on the Boer
position Offended by a l2.poupder,
near Crocodile pond, show that as the
British were struggling up the hill in
the dark, through net of barbed
wire, they alarmed the Boer watch
dOgs, who gave the alarm. The Beers
opened fire and the British charged
bat the Beers exploded dynamite
mines, doing much damage, and the
British retreated.

Ladies, Knights and Gentlemen
When l received the invitation Of
Ogletborpe and Rathbone lodges TO be

my former visits to the fair Oity hard

Indeed, memory is one OF the most
benefoent gifts Of God to man. Per-
haps no other faculty Of the mind
contributes more to life's pleasures or
giveslmors faithful warning to life's
dangers. The days speed by on the
wings Of the morning, chroniCling the
years as silently as fall the evening
dews, while the noiseless foot of time
runs ever to eternity. But memory,
with never tagging zeal, keeps the
record Of human conduct, and is at
once the companion, friend aud teach
er of man. A very phonograph of the
soul, it preserves the record OF life,
and, at the touch of recollection yields
its priceless treasures to cheer, to
chasten and to guide. It is the hand
maiden of wisdom, the conservator Of
hope, and the inspiration to human
progress.
The utility Of so vine a gift is not
circumscribed by the narrow limits Of
personal experience. The lives Of
otsers, the traditions of families and
communities, the history Of nations
and all the records Of time unite their
influence to shape individual and ma
tional character, and to inspire indi-
yidual and National ambition, gand to

face expressive of great concern to his
companion.
Pardon me, madam, but will you be
kind enough to recover the paper for
me? 1t is of vital importance, l as
sure you"
The woman hesltated, and regarded
him with evident suspicion. He quietly
waited for her to comply, with no trace
Of the uneasiness which he felt. AS she
continued to hesitate he turned and re-
peated his request.
1t was an anxious moment, while
each sought furtively to learn the 9TH

yet to refuse to do SO meant only to

not yet within the cover of the woods,
where an attack might be safe. The
judge had considered this and the spot
was well chosen. A moment more the
woman ~hesitated, while her eye trav-
eled eagerly to the wood, but for an
instant only, when she began to de-
scend carefully from the carriage.

IN his attitude, but scarcely had her
feet touched the ground when with
terrific force he laid the whip across
the back CT the astonished Juno. Mad
dened by the blow, she sprang like a
rocket into the air, and then dashed
wildly on, while a volley of oaths fol-
lowed by three pistol shots in rapid
succession revealed the fate which had
awaited him.
Pursuit was impossible, for Juno

JUDGE LOWELL.

Judge Lowell chirruped cheerfully
and frightened the reins over Juno's
back. Pick up your heels faster than
this, miss" he said, addressing him
self to the pair of glossy chestnut ears
ahead, "and remember, an extra meas
ure of clover grass tonight if you
bring up at the Willows before sun
down"
The sound of her masters voice with
so fair a promise, for a time inspired
Juno to renewed e%xertions, but the
long country road stretched like an
arid waste ahead, and before long her
efforts, which had been none of the
bravest, ceased altogether, and she re-
lapsed into her former easy gait. This
fragrant breach of good faith passed, as
that animal had sagely calculated, all
~unnoticed by her master, who, re-
turning home, was meditating upon
the events of the day, and paid no fur
Their heed to Juno's slackened pace.
A voice, apparently at the judges
elbow, recalled him, and he leaned for
ward to see what was wanted, while
the opportunity was not lost upon
Juno, who had already halted with
cheerful alacrity, and now stood, a
dusty and perspiring statue.
A woman stood by the roadside, q
long linen cape completely envelop-
ing her figure, while on her head was
a bonnet of such size as to have gone

thick veil. IRON beneath this a pair
of sharp eyes scrutinized him as she in
CURED how far it might be to Wilton.
At his reply that it was some two
miles ahead she looked meaningly at
the empty seat beside him, "You
don't happen to be going that way
yourself, and could accommodate a
poor woman with a lift, eh?"
The judge hesitated, while he owned
to a feeling as disagreeable as it was
also u~naccountable. 1t was not an un-
common request, however, and, asham-
ed of his seeming rudeness, he politely
made way for her beside him. 1t was
then that he understood the feeling
that had Influenced him, for as she
stepped in his keen eye detected that
that foot which she drew into the
buggy was incased in the stout leath-
ern boot of a man.
Though ordinarily most courageous,
for an instant he felt the blood turn
cold in his veins as he realized his
danger. What was to be done, how
ever; Juno lad already started on, and
to frame an excuse now would prob
ably result only in arousing the sus-

picions of his unwelcome guest. Mean
while she remained silent, evidently
not caring to engage in conversation,
while the judge made no effort to do
so. Occasionally he perceived her re-
garding him furtively from behind the
folds of her thick veil, a fact which
did not tend to allay his suspicious.
1t was certainly an unpleasant posi-
ton in which he found himself. Well
known throughout the section as a
man of wealth, he now for the first
time realized to how many rogues this
fact might prove a temptation, and al
though that portion of the journey
which they were steadily approaching
lay through dense woods, he had never
before calculated the danger which
might arise. He was totally un-
armed, save for his driving whip,
which he carried more for the purpose
Of Ticking flies from Juno's back than
for any more active service, and which
he now felt offered small chances
against the cold muzzle of a revolver
which might at any m be pre-

his only weapon, as he saw the woods
through which they must pass growing
nearer and nearer. AS yet no plan
which had presented itself had seemed
entirely feasible, but he realized that
to delay longer might prove fatal, so
he prepared to carry out one which he
could only hope would rid him of SO
suspicious a character. Should he fail
all further attempts he knew would be
useless, but he determined to make a
noble stand against the rascal, for he
was of too fiery a disposition to yield
tameless to his insolent demands.
With a deliberate air he took from
an inner pocket a notebook which he
proceeded to examine leisurely. A mo-
nent later a cry of we'll feigned dismay
escaped him a a leaf futtered from
his grasp and rested at some distance

this story to tell of an experience Of
his down at Fort Monroe. He was

who made his acquaintance were two
gentlemen. One of them was a Metho-
dist clergyman from somewhere in
Kentucky, and as his companion had

a Methodist. The mention of the town
where the Methodist preacher lived re-

asked. "Yes," was the answer. The
reverend doctor smiled his kindly

sions with him. The time came, how
ever, when he experienced a change of
heart. He was converted and joined
a peculiar sect called Complexities, or
Christians, a church of very recent
origin. For several months he kept
him to the straight and narrow way,
but one day he happened to be driving
a very fast horse, when he passed a race
track. He drove in and despite his
good resolutions, he fell from grace
and presently SEN his horse around
the track IN the fashion of his unre-
generate days. Somebody saw him and
reported him. He was summarily
turned out of the church. A day or
two afterward a friend met him and

him. Lew was unexpectedly cheerful.
He was not at all cast down. No.
said he. 1 think it served me right.
I ought to have known better than to
join a scrub church with no pedigree "
The Methodist preacher laughed inn
moderately. His companion smiled, but
in an embarrassed way. The Methodist
finally dried his eyes. And now, DR..

President Mckinley, in speaking at
a town in South Dakota a few weeks
ago, remarked that the little folks now
had a good deal of geography to learn
that he did not have when a boy.
This is significantly true. Africa, in
the old biographies, took up little
space; it was the dark continent.
Australia is also a comparatively new
chapter. So is a great part of the
United States. South Dakota, where
the president spoke, was a wilderness

and he was IA years old before it's first

About ten years ago there sprang up
among the metropolitan papers a riv-
airy that led to some interesting as
well as awful developments. Though
the Sunday issues were chiefly affected,
the changes did not apply to them
alone. 1t seemed to be-and it was
the effort of-some publishers to give
IN the columns of their daily issues
not only the news of the world, but
illustrations Of the leading events, and
pictures of those who took part in
them, with literature Of all kinds, and
it's criticism thrown in as a side dish.
From a dozen, the Sunday issues ran
up to twenty, forty, sixty, and ONE
times to a hundred pages. Very often
1T might almost be said generally
the quantity was offset by a dilution
of the quality, and it became a puzzle
to discover who read the mass of ma
terial the presses turned out every
Saturday. The reaction has been not
ed for some time. Pictures have dis
appeared altogether from the columns
of the leading papers, not only in New
York, but in other great cities. There
has been a return to the older idea
that a daily newspaper has an ample
field for all it's energies in seeking to
give to clean-minded readers all the
clean news of the day. With the tre-
mendous expansion of the news service
OF the press-an expansion that has
brought the ends of the earth together,
1t may be said-this is a task that can
give the greatest energy and enterprise
full employment, and the execution of
which can secure to the intelligent
readers of a daily paper the most
profitable satisfaction.

RELICS OF GETTYSBURG.
Germantown Man Tells of a Factory He

germantown Man Tells of a Factory He
Found Near the Battle Field.
According to a facetious German
town man., who has just returned from
Gettysburg, there is hidden away in
the woods a mile or two from the bat
tleteld, a relic factory, says the Phila-
delphia Record. 1t is a two-story build
ing of brick, 80 by 100 feet; twenty
nine hands are employed in it, and the
weekly pay roll averages $500. The
value of this years production will be
not far from 10000, an increase of 40
per cent over that of last year. The
relic factory was only built in 1895.
The production, the Germantown man
says, consists of old bullets, old IAN
o balls, soldier buttons, buckles,
swords, pieces of bone and sabretaches.

worn appearance. These are the cheap

of all the officers slain upon the battle
field. The factory makes nothing in
advance, thus avoiding o~yerstocking.
1t only runs on orders, and by night
the customers call for their goods.
They are the inn-keepers, the grocers,
the saloonkeepers, the bakers and real
estate men of the town, and whenever
it is moonlight they may be seen dis
tributing the rare relics cautiously and
judiciously over the field. Visitors
there now are more numerous than
they used to be. 1t is NJ longer usual
to poke about all day without unearth-
ing so much as a single bullet, and
tourists appreciate this change.
