hruger'S Historic IledSe Relative eo
the Boer War Fully Redeemed.
Evidences are accommodating on ev-
cry hand, writes a London correspon-
dent, of great wave of public alarm
at the incalculable danger to the en-
pire arising from the paralysis which
has overtaken England in her attempt
to subdue or exterminate the Beers
There is fierce public indignation at
the inconceivable levity and ignorance
with which the enterprise was begun
and the criminal stupidity with which
it has been conducted.
The opening of the third year,
campaign is signalized by the publ
cation in both lingo and the anti-war
press of retrospects of the govern
ment's war, the record fully just1fy1ng
the gloomiest apprehens.ons. 1t was es-
timated that the cost of the war would
be $5OO0O,OOO with a field force of
sured would complete the conquest Of
the republics in three months.
Today, when prospect of conquest
was never less certain. it has cost
500, 1000, 900, besides $4,000 lives. the
aggregate of casualties being $4,000.
Since Lord Roberts declared the war
ton a year ago it has cost $3.50, 0OO,-
600 and 5000 lives. The total number
of casualties within that period is
$4,000.
The proclaiming of martial law in
Cape Colony is the most desperate
venture yet made by the British. 1t is
Known here that the Cape premier
warned both the imperial government
and Lord Kitchener that it inevitab bly,
would mean the ultimate loss of South
Africa, but the government gave Lord
Kitchener absolute discretion and he,
rendered reckless by the hopeless en-
tanglements of the desperate situa-
ton, refused to listen to reason and in
sisted on having his will obeyed. An
iron curtain of rigorous military CEN
sorship has now been drawn over the
South African conf1agration.

sits in a wretched little back room in
London, suspected of weaving vast
plots while detectives representing at
least four nations Turk outside watch
ing in vain for some clew on which to
hold him, are more strange and dra-
matte than any of the fiction that has
been written about him. Malatesta is
his own name and his family is one
of the oldest and most respected in
Italy today. AS the eldest son he in
herited the title of count and would
have come into considerable property
if his family had not disowned him on
account of his revolutionary tenden-
cies. He has a brother, Henry, who
is in the public service in Italy today.
Malatesta was intended by his
father to be a scientist, and after an
excellent education under tutors was
sent to Milan University to prepare
for the study of medicine. He was
turbulent, headstrong youth, and soon
became the leader of the more restless
spirits at the university. Before he
had time to graduate he was arrested
as the leader of a revolutionary move
ment. and although his people man
aged to get him out of Jail, they in
formed him that henceforth they
would have nothing to do with him,
unless he changed his views about the
iniquity of all forms of government
This Malatesta promptly refused to do,
and was invited by the family to go
and be hanged.
He plunged into all sorts of plots
against the Italian government after
that, and for his completely in the
riots of 1893 was imprisoned again.
After his release he went to America.
He seems to have spent most of his
time there in quiet conferences with
anarchist leaders. Emma Goldman
and Johann Most were his intimates-
Four years ago he came to London and
has since lived in a suualid district
in the North End known as Islington.
Malatesta's Work shop.
Malatesta's shop is bare little
place with one or two broken bicycles
about, odds and ends of LEAF pipe and
a few old gas meters. He is a keen
student of chemistry and electricity
and is said to have one or two electri-
cal inventions that would have
brought him money if he had not been
opposed to the idea of patents. If he
had not been so busy promoting an
archy he might have been as useful
citizen as his fellow countryman,
Marconi. To all seeming he is one of
the most quiet, mild and peaceable of
men, He is known to have expelled
from authority among London an
archists one or two men who talked
too violently.
Just before King Humbert, of Italy
was slain Malatesta disappeared from
London and turned up in Italy. al
though the police there didn't know of
1t then. He was back in London by
the time Bresci Lad fired his fatal shot.
Malatesta, of course, disavowed all
knowledge of this deed, but had TO
admit that he was well acquainted
with Brescl, for the fact was gener-
ally known He was watched by Lon

Several cases of the great power ex-
ercised by growing fungi are given by
an English paper. Many years ago,
it says, Basingstoke was paved and
some time afterward the pavement was
found to be uneven; this increased, I'M
til some of the heaviest stones were
completely lifted out of place by the
growth of enormous fungi underneath.
One of these paving stones was twenty
two inches by twenty-one and weighed
eighty-three pounds. DR.. M. c. Cooke
had a similar incident brought under
his notice-a large kitchen hearthstone
being forced out of its bed by the
growth of a fungus. Sir Joseph Banks
relates a still more startling occur
renee. A cask of wine leaked, and
after time a fungus grew from the
leakage, finally filling the cellar and
lifting the cask to the ceiling.

MaIatesta-Did He Plot MckinIey's
Death?

Perhaps the most dangerous anarch-
list in the world today is Errico Mala-
tesla, whose address is now London.
There is no reason to suppose, writes a
correspondent of the New York Press,
that this genuine Italian count, who
apparently earns a modest living in
London by mending bicycles and by
doing odd jobs of plumbing and me-
chanica1 tinkering, occupies a much
more important position than has been
generally assigned to him and knows
considerably more than Emma Gold
man about the murder of President
Mckinley.
Under Police Surveillance.
Malatesta is considered by the de-
partment of criminal investigation at
Scotland Yard to be the real leader of
the organized anarchists in England,
band numbering between 1000 and
5000 members. He is known also to
be in close touch with the anarchist
organizations in America, France and
Italy, and he is suspected by the Lon
den police of being tie actu l head and
moving spirit of the international af-
iliations of anarchists. He has a few
Intimate friends here outside of an
lrchistic circles-or outside of the in
ner circles, at least-and from talks
with some of these 1 gather that they
fully believe Malatesta to be the an
Rrchist director general.
He is not only watched continually
by the police today, but any one who
undertakes to see him is followed.
Since he settled in London four years
ago he has been so cautious that no
definite charge of melting to violence
could be brought against him.

An outward application for bron-
chial difficulties is many times far
more effective than syrups, cough mix
ture, cod liver oil, &C., simply because
it penetrates through to the direct
cause, which is, as a rule, an accumu-
lation of matter or growth tightly adj
hered to the bronchial tubes.
St Jacobs Oil, possessing as it does
those wonderful penetrating powers,
enables it to loosen these adhesions
and to induce free expectoration. Cases
have been known where expectorations
have been examined after st. Jacobs
Oil has been applied, and the exact
formation was clearly shown, where
the adhesions had been removed or
pulled off the bronchial tubes. All ir-
ritation of the delicate mucous mem
brane of the broncha is quickly re-
moved by the healing and soothing
properties of ST. Jacobs Oil. In cases
of croop and whooping cough in chill
dren st. Jacobs Oil will be found SUI
perior to any other remedy.
ST. Jacobs Oil is for sale throughout
the world. 1t is clean to use-not at
all greasy or oily, as its name might
imply. For rheumatism, govt, sciatica,
neuralgia, cramp, pleurisy, lumbago,
sore throat, bronchitis. soreness, stiff
ness, bruises, toothache, headache,
backache, feetache, pains in the chest,
pains in the back, pains in the Shout
ders, pains in the limbs, and all bodily
aches and pains it has no equal. 1t
acts like magic. Safe, sure, and never
failing.
