LONDON, March 1f.-DeIarev wbo
has proved himself the most able of al
the Boer generals, has, within a foct
night, gained a second decisive victory.
His first victory was the capture of
Won Donops convoy, when the British
casualties in killed, wounded and men
made prisoners, totaled 632, and he has
now added to- his laUrels by the capture.
for the first time throughout the cam
palgn, Of prominent British general
ana by 1nhicting what is generally admit
ted to be one of the worst reverses the
British have suffered throughout the
war;
Inc newspaper correspondents in South
Africa have not yet been allowed to de-
scribe the affair. The only additional de-
tails available are contained in a further
dispatch from Lord Kitchener which Mr..
Brodrick, the secretary for war read lust
as parliament was adjourning. This dis
patch shows that the first confusion was
caused by native boys with led horses
who galloped through the mule CONVOY
as the latter was endeayoring, by Lord
Methuen's direction, to close on the OK
convoy. The disorder among the mules
communicated itself TO the mounted
troops, and the Beers, dressed in khaki
and riding alongside the wagons, frus-
trated all the attempts Of the British Of
heers to rally their forces.
1t is feared that Lord Kitchener's in
complete accounts have not told the
worst, but among newspapers and the
public there is a tendency TO suspend
judgment pending the receipt Of details
Distinguishing features of the editor
ials in this mornings papers on this mat
ter are, first, the outburst of sympathy
for Gen. Methuen; and, second, the
fierce denunciation of the Irish members
of parliament who INDUCED in hiIaritv
at the reading by Mr.. Brodrick in the
house of commons of the dispatch an
nouncfng Lord Methuens capture. AT
the same time the papers fully admit
the extreme gravity and even the hunil-
iation to British prestige abroad, involv-
ed in such a reverse inflicted by q body
of Beers of equal numerical strength
1t is recognized that although the dam
age is more moral than material il will
certainly have the effect of proIonging
the Boer resistance for many months.

Good music and plenty of it-cleyer
comedy and just enough of it; pretty
girls. beautiful costumes, handsome
scenery and splendid cast, headed by
a prima donna who looks her part and
sings 1t magnificently-that is what the
Metropolitan opera house offers for the
engagement of 1.-THE Princess Chic this
week. This comic opera, with Marguerite
Sylvia in the title role, was the musical
hit of last season; with Miss Berri as
the princess the play loses nothing in
either singing or acting, and the sup
porting company this year is in some re-
spects superior to that which appeared
at the Metropolitan last season.
Sousa and his band will appear at the
Metropolitan in one concert next Tuesday

entertainment is Commendable in every
respect, and the business is more than
satisfactory.

Out of fifty-six wives or daughters

Washington society is puzzling its head

all women and many men since Fash
ion first held a court.
What, asks the New York World, are
the essentials needed to make woman
eligible for the smart set?" No COM
plete answer has ever been given to
this engrossing question, but certain
broad principles may safely be laid
down:
First. She must not eat peas with
her knife.
Second. But she may eat asparagus
with her fingers.
Third. She must know twenty wo-
men whom she does not recognize.
Fourth. But she should not recog-
nize any woman whom she does not
know.
Fifth. She need not know a pastel
from a chrome.
Sixth. She need not know a SYM
phony from a sonata.
Seventh. But she must know rag
time from Wagner.
Eighth. And she must prefer rag
time
Nineth. She need not know the diff
ference between a sonnet and an epic.
Tenth. She need not know a perora-
ton from a preamble.
Eleventh. But she must know how
to turn a nice compliment to her
enemy's face and neat insult TO her
friends hack.
Twelfth. She need not worship
wealth unless its possessor knows how
to spend II agreesbly on her.
Thirteenth. She should talk at the
top of her voice.
Fourteenth. But she should say
nothing that any one can remember.

queer themselves right here than any,
where else. No living human being is
entertaining for more than thirty min
utes at a time, or endurable for more
than two hours at a stretch. In that
time any man can say everything he
has got to say worth hearing, and IL he
fingers along until the clock begins to
yawn in his face he is simply defying
fate and inviting disaster. Many a good
impression is spoiled by too much of it.
And when you get up to go. go as if
you were fired out of gun. Don't linger

Most girls wear shoes three sizes too
small for them, and when a man keeps
them standing on the doorstep while he

she is regretting that all the stories

would be willing to pay out good money
