Jameson Raiders Rob England

London, April From statement
made by Mr.. Chamberliu, the colonial
secretary, in the house OF commons to
day, it appears that the South African
war has relieved the British Chartered
South African company OF all financial
liability in regard to the Jameson raid
the colonial secretary admitting that the
claims OF the Transval mad passed to
Great Britain as the result OF co.. quest.
Mr.. Chamberlii's announcement that
the British Chartered South African
company has escaped the payment Of .e1,
ooO0OO as indemnity in connection with
the Jameson raid. has given rise to con
siderable dissatisfaction.
1T reveals scandalous state of things
says the Cronicle. ministers owe it to
their own regulations and to the repu-
taton OF the country to take action even
at the risk OF failure, to recover this
money"
The daily Graphic also regards it as
most unfortunate that the company
should thus escape the penalty of its
misdeeos.

 Among the most enjoyable trips the writer ever took in his life, was the one to Buffalo.
 Starting at Russellville, the home of his dear parents, he was carried with ease and comfort over the Saint Louis Iron Noun tain 6 Southern to the city of Roses, From there he was hur- ried across hills and vales by the new and well equipped choctaw, until he reached the Far Fam ed Fountain of Youth, " There can not be found 6 more hospit- able people on Earth than Arkan- sas and Hot Springs is at the very apex of this worlds hospi- taity. The Eastman opened wide her doors for the important deliberations of the Press Asso- citation. The writer, being new member, refrains from reporting on it's meetings and a leaves that to older mem bers.
 Language, time and space, fail us in describing the many acts of kindness shown us by the good citizens of Hot Springs. The luxury of the baths must be experienced, for that is one of the few experiences of life that words are not reveal. Many a Ponce De Leon has there regain ed his health and fortune easy to his roof.
 After a two days stay in the city of vapOrs, we enjoyed the Feast of the ass-oyer-The St. Louis Iron Mountain & South ern." The Iron Mountain rail way deserves our com bined thanks for the royal manner in which she carried the pen-push- CTS of Arkansas to St Louis. It was through one of the most fertile belts of country anywhere and this accounts for it. prosper ity. Judging from the work that is being done on the road bed and the excellent service that it gives, the road officials are doing all in their power for the comfort and ease of the travelling public.
 From St. Louis, the well known Wabash railway took us through the fertile fields of Indiana, Hi nois and Michigan, crossing the picturesque river at Detroit in a transfer boa t;then passing along through Canada, along the shore of beautiful Lake St Clair, final ly, we reached Buffalo. After spending day at Buffalo. a day at the Pan American Exposition, and day at the climax of God s creation Niagaro Falls, we re turned home refreshed and de termined to see more of God s handy work whenever time and opportunity presents them selves

Troubles That Never Happen.

AS the story runs, once there was an
old man, broken by years and wrin
kled by worries. who laid him down
to die. Summoning his seven grown
children to his side he delivered feebly
to them with his parting breath this
last message:
MY children. I have lived long,
toiled hard and worried much. But as
look back upon my life 1 fad that
my greatest troubles have been those
that never happened"
In other words. the good man had
spent much of his time in crossing
bridges that he was never to reach
in borrowing trouble that he was never
to experience.-New York World.
