time in his conduct of the Grand female

sartorial marvels and in themselves are
quite an attraction, particularly to the
feminine portion OF the audiences. The

Matt OFT, who were formerly members of
their deceased brother Joe's company.

An aged resident of Caroline Couny,
Nd, was hailed IN court the other day
to stand trial for the alleged larceny
of nine eggs. Extra jurors had to be
summoned, and 1t cost tho county
$3.50 to try The case. Counsel for the
defendant (who WAS 73 years olD said
Chat he had known his client as an
honest and upright man for forty
years, and that it was incredible that
he should steal eggs. He argued
furthermore that the State had not
shown that the eggs were sound, and
nine rotten eggs would have no value
at all Tho jury returned Il verdict
"not guilty."

END OF METHODIST YEAR.
There Will be no Shake up Of Appointments
This Year.

The pastors of the Methodist
Episcopal church in the Harrisburg
District are closing up their business
for the fiscal year, and getting their
reports ready for presentation at the
conference which meets at Chambers
burg, Pa, on Wednesday March 81,
10 remain IN session until the calendar
Is cleared of business.
This will be the first meeting since
the general conference decided against
a general exchange of pastors at the
close of each year. AS result there
will be comparatively few pulpits
exchanged this year. This revision
of the rule is agreeable to most of the
ministers of the conference who say
that it will be rebound to prosperity
of the church in general. A number
of those in the minor charges do not
favor it, as they say 1t glvesthe "good'
pulpits of the conference to few for
life, and confines others to lives oi
hardship for themselves and families.
This view is not generally taken how
ever, for the reason that 1t is true in
church circles as we'll as business that
a man who is worthy always has his
material reward and the able man
always reaches the top.

BOTHA DECLINES.
Kitchener's Peace Terms Not to His
Liking.

LONDON. March 20.-In the house of
commons yesterday Mr.. Chamberlain,
secretary for the colonies, said that Gen
eral Louis Botha, commander in chief of
the Boer army, had informed General
Kitchener that he did not feel disposed
to recommend the British terms of sur
render to the consideration of the Boer
government. General Botha added that
his government, through its chief officers,
agreed with his views. Mr.. Chamberlain
said he would make Lord Kitchener's
terms public at once.
The issuance of parliamentary papers
on the negotiations between Lord Kitch-
ener and General Botha is delayed. Gen
eral Botha's refusal to accept the peace
terms offered him is commented upon
with an evident sense of relief. The idea
that Lord Kitchener initiated the nego-
tiations instead of General Botha, as had
been supposed, is unpalatable to the Brit
ish press. The Daily Mail, under the
editorial caption Our Rejected Suit, v
asks why the government instructed Lord
Kitchener to sue for peace after the muir
der of the peace ENJOYS and concludes
as follows:
LET the war be pressed to the utmost
and let further re-enforcements be pre-
pared, for they may be needed, but above
all let us have no more negotiations
