A FALSE MOVE.

Whenever an official OF govern
ment does something in lieu Of the
salary he receives Of special nature,
he feels himself entitled to Especial
recognition" We could mention
some one in connection with the
small farces of 1898, aud 1895, who
took all in sight. For theiv special
benefit we publish the following
paragraph in regard TO Lord Roberts,
who evidently knows a guinea when
he sees it.
'LoSDoN, July Blu the House
of Commons today, prop ,sins
resolution granting F,eid Marshal
Lord r ,berts 100000 for his ser
vices in South Africa. A. j. BAlfour,
the Government leader, in the
course of eulogy Of the field mar
shal, said thera was no doubt that
but for Lord Roberts daring and
strategy and the rapid!ty with
which his plans were carried out,
Kimbarley aud Mafeking would
have fallen, 1l,00O British would
have been starved into submission
at Lsdysmith and there would have
been general rising OF disloyalists
in South Africa. The country was
saved from his by the genius OF the
man he now invited the House to
reward by unanimous vote, irre-
spective of political differences.
"The state ment called forth pr :
tests from the Irish members. The
Liberal leader, Sr Henry Campbell
Bannerman, concurred in the
motion.
"John Dillon, Irish Nationalist
strongly opposed the vote. He de-
clared Lord Roberts had shown The
greatest inbumanity in South Afri-
ca and said he had employed bar
barous methods and had proved
himself dismal failure.
"Labouchere. Radical, protested
against granting gratuities to mill
tary men while nothing was given
to civilians who were doing some
thing for the benefit OF theil
country.
"Keir- Hardy, Socialist and In ie
pendent Labor, took a similar view
He declared that in the opinion oil
experts at home and abroad, Lore
Roberts failure primarily was re
sponsible for the continuance OF th'
war.
"Swift MscNeil, Irish Nationalist
said he considered Lord Robsrts
operations were conducted with /
maximum of cruelty and a minimum
of humanity and that his farewell
speech at Cape Town was horTib
hypocrisy and blasphemy.

There are many interesting aspects

Native Christians for Troubles.
MOHAMMEDANS ENTER PEKIN
Bent on Making Trouble German Troops
Warned TO Look Out for Danger
Address on Our Trade With
China.

PEKIN, Feb 5.--The foreign ENJOYS
met this morning to consider an edIct
presented by the Chinese plenipoten-
tiaries regarding the suspension OF ex-
aIninations for FIVE years and also the
punishment Of officials guilty OF not
helping SUPPRESS outrages upon foreign
ers.
The ENJOYS objected to the wording
of the edict, which made Il seem that
the troubles were entirely due TO the ac-
tions OF native Christians. Being sat
sfactory in other respects, It was al
tered tc suit the view of the ENJOYS
aud was then returned 10 the Chin Sc
plenipotentiaries.
1t Is reliably reported that more than
10000 MoIiammedans have reappeared
IN Pekih during the last four weeks
with the object Of creating disturbances
during the Chinese celebrations at New
Years. The Germans have accordingly
issued an order to their troops that no
one shall walk alone and no one 20
unarmed. Tie order directs the Ger
man troops to search all Chinese and
never under any consideration to enter
Chinese private houses on invitation
unless IN considerable numbers.
The more widely known the demands
OF the foreign ENJOYS are among the
Chinese, the more the belief spreads
that the court will not accept them,
especially the demand for the punish
ment of Lung Flu Hsiang. who practi-
cally controls the entire Chinese army.
