of the Iowa Supreme Court in hold
ing the Titus amendment void leave s
Senator-elect Fred N. Smith in a
peculiar position. He was elected to
fill the unexpired term OF Senator Me-
Arthur, who resigned when he was
appointed United States clerk. His
term of office expires the first of jan
uary, 1902, and consequently, though
elected for year, he will not serve
one day of that term or receive one
cent of pay. The new legislature,
which NESTS in January, 1902, was to
have sworn him in, but his term will
expire before that time, and his sue
cessor, to be elected in November,
will be sworn instead. Mr.. Smith is
out several hundred dollars for elec-
ton expenses.

It is not generally known that De-
larey, the Boer leader who rushed the
British rear guard at s:Vlakfontein a
few days ago and thereby precipitated
sharp and bloody engagement, was
one of the few conspicuous Beers who
opposed the sending of an ultimatum
to England. He neither liked nor
trusted Kruger, and during his IL
years of service in the volksraad he
Invariably discouraged any policy cal
culated to provoke friction, between
the two dominant races of South At
RIGA. His service in the field has been
marked by energy. skill and Judgment
and by powers Of refrigeration which
are simply wonderful when one con-
siders the Vigor and effectiveness Of
his attacks at Vlakfontein in connec-
ton with his disastrous defeat some
months ago at the hands Of Gen. Bah
bington. He has suffered privations
innumerable during the progress of a
war of which he did not approve, and
