JOKE ON KITCHENER.
sents the British General an
Rip Van Wrinkle.

London. Dec. 9.A letter Just re-
ceived from an officer in South Af-
srica says that a subaltern drew a
caricature of Lord Kitchener as Rip
Van Winkle leading centenarian
soldier up a kopje. A staff officer
showed it to Kitchener, and the
chief gave one of his grim smiles
and said:
1T is an ugly prophecy but il
necessary we will hang on here un-
til we are that age. Our duty is to
win, and we will"
The subaltern was paralyzed with
terror until assured that Kitchener
had not asked for the artists name.

HUMOROUS SIDE.
An Absent-minded Minister.

An Absent-minded Minister. From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
 Some few weeks ago noted minister went to one of the local railroad sta ti0ns to meet friend. Upon en- tering the station and looking around he saw an elegantly dressed woman, who apparently was about to board a train.
 She was carryinga number of parcels in her arms, and, besides. had with her three or four children that with great difficulty she was trying to help along. The clergyman approached the lady and offered his assistance, which she accepted, afterward thanking him very graciOusly for the kindness.
 he train moved out of sight and he went on his way thinking of the end less opportunities one has for doing good. When all at once he discovered he was carrying a beautiful silk um- brella with pearl and gold trimmings.
 Since that time the reverend gentle man has very little to say on the sub ject of courtesy to strangers.
 And the umbrella is still unused.
