London. March ia dispatch from
Lord Kitchener issued this morning Is
so studously silent upon the subject OF
the peace negotiations that II leads to
the conclusion that nothing has been
accomplished Of a sufficiently definite

Nor do Gen. French's movements indi-
cate a cessation of hostllities although
possibly. as no date IL given, his cap

ing Gen. Dewet's arrival at Senekal,

he has oisv a small following Dewet IL
nearing q district where he Is likely to
receive considerable achievements,
and probably intends to pick up rowing

During the month thirteen-year-

cation in st. Paul, a sixteen-year-old
boy put upon trial for holding up a
young lady when, as he claims, he was
drunk, and the usual number of di-

disorderlies, ETC., had been docketed.
But this was not enough. Had not
Minneapolis recently had high-toned
whisky murder? st. Paul must have
one too.
It occurred on st. Patrick's Day. Al
though it was Sunday, liquor flowed
freely in the city named after another
saint. This produced much drunken
ness which is. of course, not only very
naughty, but also strictly illegal, even
on week day.
Two drunken men got into street
fight with two others, strangers to the
first pair, and J. ]. Barry, a respect
ably connected young Irish Catholic,
was killed. Conroy, who is supposed
to have committed the murder, is

A REMARKABLE STORY.

Rev. DR.. Talmage some months ago
In an address in Philadelphia gave
this remarkable illustration of the
power of consecrated printers ink. "a
good many years ago there was an un-
known woman who passed along
road and thought Here is a religious
tract. I will just drop this on the
road and offer a prayer, and who
knows but what some bad man will
come along and pick up this tract,
and 1t may save his SOUL So the
woman passed on. Sure enough q
little while after there came a very
bad man along, and it was Richard
Baxter. He picked up that tract, and
it brought him to God, and was the
means of his eternal salvation.
Richard Baxter wrote a book en-
titled the Call to the Unconverted,'
which brought thousands into the
kingdom, among others Philip Dodd-
ridge. He wrote a book entitled the

Jesus Christ as Savior, and all that

dist says:
The most remarkable thing about the

On the same point Rev. J. s..
