Have Exciting Adventure Getting
Away from Fire.

ST. Louis, Jan. 29.-Two hundred
and thirty guests of the Linden hotel

the corner Of Seventh street and
Washington avenue, and for thirty
thrilling minutes threatened to
sweep away the hosiery. Women
were carried from the upper floors
by elevator and down the stirvays in
a fainting condition. Mothers with
infants in their arms CROPPED their

WHEATON NOT TO BLAME.
War Department Says the General Did
Not Criticize Senators for Express
gIOns on the Philippines.

Washington, Jan. 29.-The war de-
partment is not disposed to take any
action respecting Gen. Wheaton's ut
terances, which were quoted in the
senate Monday. This is because the
officials, after studying the Manila
dispatch in which Gen. Wheaton was
quoted, are satisfied that the debate
in the senate proceeded upon an en-
tire misrepresentation of what Gen.
Wheaton was reported to have said.
It is found that Gen. Wheaton did not
criticise- the United States senate or
its committees and it is thought at
the department that the misappre-
hensiOn on that score arose from
general statement in the dispatch at
tributing such criticisms TO other
persons than Gen. Wheaton.

ENGLISH COUNTING THE COST.
Great Britain staggers at Rs7sla-
tion Of SOuth African Returns.
Since the War Began over $4,000 Of
the Kings Soldiers Have Lost
Their Lives and Expenses AE-
EreEzfe over billion Dollars.

London, Jan. 2s.-As the months
progress it is becoming more and
more apparent that the price Great
Britain viii pay for supremacy in
South Africa will indeed be one that
wiz stagger humanity" In the fate
ful period before the outbreak of the
war stolid John Bull regarded as mere
bOmbast this prediction by President
Kruger. Even the great disasters i'm
mediately following the outbreak of
hOstilities only annoyed, did not alarm
the average BritOn. But as the days
and months and even years have
passed and the casualty list has stead
lily mounted upward, with peace even
now not IN sight because of ministe-
rial rejection of BOer Overtures, his
ton that Dom Paul possibly knew
whereof he spoke.
Up to January 1, 1902, the British
had lost ,s64 men in South Africa by
death and 81, $50 had been invaIided
home. Despite this appalling record,
and despite the growing anger against
the ministry for not seizing every pos
sible opportunity to put an end to
the hostilities, the farthest idea from
the mind Of Britons- is that Of any
thing looking like surrender.
Taking the period from the COM
mencement of the military operations
until March 81, next, the total amount
ear-marked for war purposes in South
Africa reaches e151, 100000 paid out
by March 81, 1902. Provision viii have
to be made for carrying on operations
vigorously until the Beers lay down
their arms, and experts affirm that
they may look. forward to the ex-
penditure Of further $50, 600, 900 to
gain the desired end. On that basis
the total cost of the war will approx
innate 100000, 900.

A Wonderful Curc.

Wright City, Mo. Dec S0.-Medical
men are still wondering over the Symes
case, which has aroused such wide
spread interest in this neighborhood.
Mr.. Joseph G. Symes had suffered
very severely with 1nfiammatory
rheumatism, enduring pains which
were something terrible, and which
made it altogether impossible for him
to work by day or rest or sleep at
night. In spite of all treatments he
grew worse, and his case seemed to de-
fy all the usual remedies.
He began a treatment of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and very soon noticed a
marked improvement, which increased
as he kept on till six boxes were used.
when he found himself without trace
of pain or ache. He Is now able to
work all day and sleep all night, and
his rapid and complete recovery Is re-
garded by the doctors as little short OF
a miracle.

Hopes Of the Future.

With the coming OF the New Year
all our hopes OF future good for our
selves and For humanity at large re-
receive a new impulse and an accession
OF power. If we are alive to the wide
extension of knowledge, the conquest
of the material world, the imminence
of new and important discoveries and
changes which shall make the POSSIBLE
tiles of life more interesting and beau
tiful, we cannot but rejoice that we
are born into this wonderful epoch.
Tennyson's poem, written in the flush
of young manhood, voiced the scien-
tific fact in eloquence that can never
be forgotten, but the thoughts OF men
are widened by the process of the
suns. 1t is truly to the thoughts of men
that we owe all the triImphs of civil
ization, the triumphs Of religion, art,
industry md science, as in the last re-
sort all that is and all that we hope
for resides in the thoughts of men and
in the feelings ard emotions which
give birth to these thoughts, ard be-
tween which there is such constant
interaction.

From Asbury Grove, in Essex county.
comes piteous story. to the effect that
the site of the summer camp meetings
is haunted By troops Of starved. miser-
able cats. These animals were pets of
the families who occupied Asbury
Grove in the summer. 1t is assumed
that most OF the families went thither
TO be near the camp meeting. IL Is.
however queer brand of religion
which viii justify any human being in
deliberately abandoning an animal 20
t. slow tortures of starvation. Humane
agents Of Beverly have lately taken
action, with a view TO putting these
neglected animals out of misery by
some painless poison. Whatever may
be their fate, the story is extremely
discreditabls to the summer community
