In restful. white serenity

And feltsno chills
OF winter winds that blow
From lands Of snow.
How quick the change!

Crashing. crushing sound.
The air filled full
OF blazing. bllstering dust,
The sun shut out.
The riven, groaning ground
A-vomit with a fiery food

The boiling. burning sea,

London May 2I.-Dhe Mail this
morning says the cabinet council to-
day will decide upon the points in de-
tail mostly of financial nature which
have been raised by the beers in the
peace negotiations Great Britain's
decision will then be communicated
10 the Vereeniging conference by del
cgates at Pretoria, and, being the best
obtainable terms, they will almost
certainly be accepted. The results
should be announced officially Thurs
day or Friday. Peace is quite certain,
saws the Mail, and the delegates at
Pretoria are only endeayoring to gild
the pill for the Vereeniging conference
TO swallow.
Beers Yield.
Pretoria. May 27.--Forty six beers,
with their wagons and cattle, surren-
dered at Balmoral, Transyaal, yester-
day.
Views at Pretoria.
Pretoria, May 27.-The prevalence
Of optimistic feeling in regard TO peace
negotiations is hardly based upon
solid facts. The protraction OF the
conference at Vereenging is not a
hopeful sign. Delegates to the con
ference, although they have aban-
doned hopes of securing independ-
ence, still have many points o. differ
ence with the government, while the
obstinate minority continues to re-
gard the resumption of hostilities as
the best outcome of the present situa-
tnon. At any moment these points of
difference may be accentuated into a
refusal to continue negotiations. 1t is
most unlikely that those who are in
favor of peace will throw up the
sponge as long as a decent minority
is DESTROYS of continuing the struggle
and all these dissonant elements must
be taken into account before it is pos
sible to give any sort of prediction as
to the issue of the present negotia-
tons
Continent Wants Peace.
Vienna, May 27.-The Neue Freie
Presse, says the Vienna correspond
ent of the Times, publishes an article
on the peace prospects in south Afri-
ca which is interesting Tor two
reasons.
In the first place, it confirms the
idea that peace is desired almost as
eagerly on the continent as in Great
Britain. Secondly, the change of tone
of this and other Austrian papers in
regard to the south African war justi-
fies the inference that since the Ger
man tariff bill and other incidents
have opened the eyes Of Austrians to
the duplicity of their eXacting allies,
they have ceased to take their cue
from the pro-boer Prussian papers.
Says Hitch Occurred.
london, May 27.-Just before parlia-
ment rose after midnight last night,
rumor reached the Hobbies that a
hitche had occurred in the peace negO-
tiations Nothing official could be as
certained, but the Associated Press
dispatch from Pretoria may be regard
ed as an indication that such a hitch
has occurred.
