A British soldier, according to the
Chicago News, tells the following ex-
perience in the Transvaal: zone night
| went to the door of our tent rather
late, ana was at once attracted by an
Unusual object straight before me
went up to it, and found it to be the
figure of a man turned upside down.
and apparently fixed so in an everlast-
ing station. I turned the figure over
and found it to be a friend of mine in
the regiment endearingly known as the
'Dubs' (the Dublin Fusiliers, that isl

In making a tour of the Transvaal to
acquant himself with it's people, Lord
Miner is following the example which
Sir George Grey set in South Africa
y
day in the history of a household on
the veldt when Grey called and took
coffee and spent half an hour in talk
The chair he sat on was sure to be
preserved as q memento. But this re-
gard for him had a very amusing con-
trast in an experience of his at a little
up country hotel. When the bill was
being paid, one of Grey's companions
drew attention to a rather excessive
charge which the landlord put against
|. the eggs he had served to the party at
breakfast. Grey, who liked his little
joke, said on taking leave of the land
lord: by the way, eggs seem to be
rather scared up here" No." said the

An officer went for holiday to Kol-

Hungary, and duly reported the fact

to write the War Office, and headed
his letter Grand Hotel, Klausenburg
this being the German name of the
town. Almost by return of post came
letter from the authorities asking
why he dared go from Kolozsvan to

Humble Homes of. the Poor.

From the Portland Oregonian.
Come away from the crowded centres
OF the city's throbbing life;
The palaces grand on every hand,
The noise and heat, and strife;
From the fever of pride and passion,
That the grave can only curve,
And walk with me in the twilight hour
BY the humble homes of the poor.
Here is pride that scorns dishonor,
Not the pride that gives others pain;
Ambition that seeks it's loved ones
joy
Not covet's another's gain.
Here is happiness free from envy,
Here is sympathy quick and sure:
For the hands that give the poor most
help
Are the humble hands of the poor.
Here the father comes home in the
evening
From care and from danger free,
As the little ones run to meet him,
With their innocent shouts of glee
No hireling's hand has nursed them,
Nor will guard them at night secure.
For the mother is all to her children,
In the humble homes of the poor.
1 love to walk in the twilight,
Where 1 see through the open door,
Some busy with household duties,
Some at play on the simple floor.
No luxury makes them heartless,
No idleness makes impure:
The menace to souls where Mammon
rolls
Cannot enter the homes of the poor.
Come away from the hollow pleasures
OF the ball room and banquet hall;
For the children's hour in the cottage
Has joy that exceeds them all.
Come away from the proud, for their
riches
Take wings ard shall not endure,
Their pride will not weigh in the judg-
ment day
with the humble homes Of the poor.

ROOFS ARMY PLANS.

A few days ago President Roosevelt
issued an order reducing the United
States army to $1,000 men-the mini
mum provided by law. Many of the
Republican newspapers seized upon the
order as a text from which to preach
a sermon against timidity, directed to
those who had alleged a fear of i'm
perialism and militarism when the
law was passed giving the President
power to increase or reduce the army
in accordance with the dictates of his
judgment. Now, what goes with your
predictions" they said; "see, the Pres
ident has reduced, not increased, the
ARMY"
The President did the proper thing at
the proper time. Yet it is not out of
place to remark that If the danger of
nilitarism ever existed at all, it did
not cease to exist when the President
issued his army reduction order It Is
in proof of which one has only to look
to the recommendations of Secretary of
War Root in his annual report.
Secretary Root adheres to his plan
for a general staff, to be appointed by
the President Under the proposed plan
junior officers might be promoted over
the heads of seniors and given direc-
ton of army affairs; and they would
be responsible to the President directly
for their preferment. Leonard Wood or
Fred Funston might be appointed chief
of staff and general commanding the
army, leaving Miles, Chaffee and other
distinguished fighters in subordinate
positions. The general staff is a fea-
ture of European army organizations,
where militarism obtains.
Furthermore, Secretary Root desires
that there shall be provided a reserve
of arms, accoutrements and ammuni-
ton sufficient to supply instantly the
maximum strength of the army. 100000
men, and also to equip 10000 men of
the National Guard. These latter, the
state troops, are the reserve of the
by the Secretary organizing the Ma
tional Guard and defining the powers
of the President in issuing a call to 1t.
The Secretary wishes to have the state
| troops well organized and drilled, and
armed with regulation rifles, so that in
the event of the war these troops
would become Immediately available.
| We do not mean to say that all of
| this is a menace to the country. We do
not think that it is, under our system
of government. 1t is merely in the
line of preparing against emergencies.
ed we were caught wholly unprepared.
Many of the troops went into service
armed with Anticipated weapons and
with minimum supplies of ammunition.
There was a painful lack of necessary
supplies of about all kinds. 1t was
necessary to organize almost from the
ground up" and it was both a tedious
and costly process. Had our antagonist
been a powerful nation, we should have
had occasion to lament our state of I'M
| preparedness. Luckily, however, we
had a weak enemy, so we were not Sc
| riously incommoded.
In asking for a reserve Of arms and
men. it is Secretary Roots purpose to
provide against contingencies. In
time of peace he proposes to prepare
for possible war. And yet whatever ar
gument there was to show the danger
of militarism in this country remains
as before. The reduction of the army
did not change it.

Little Chance for Him.

They tell this story of Western tele-
graph operator says the Chicago Post
He was trying to call up small town
where the office was in charge of a
young woman, and for some reason he
couldn't raise her. He was about to
give up in despair when another opera
tor broke in with the inquiry, What
do you want 20
Il want Miss Brown of Wellsburg, y
was the reply I've been trying to get
her for the last half hour"

there who's been trying to get her for
the last two years and he hasn't sue
ceeded vet"

Austria has always been one of the
most conservative of European coun-
tries, and her people have been noted
for quiet industry and equable dispo-
sitions. But it seems that human ma
ture is the same the world over. Aus
tria has passed a national law against
a man getting drunk more than a
certain number of times during six
months, 'and providing that he must
not take bottle home with him. In
other words, if a man feels that a
jag is an absolute necessity ne must
accumulate it publicly. The dispatch
fails to state whether or not the law
gives credit for sprees that were &C.
cidentally or otherwise skipped during
the SAX months,

Judge Crimson was eminently correct
when, in his charge to the grand jury
in Augusta the other day, he emphasiz-
ed the fact that Democratic primaries
must be kept free from any suggestion
of fraud and debauchery, The Demo-
cratic party is in supreme control in
this state, and it can well afford to
make all of its actions above criticism.
Were fraud and sharp practice to DOM
mate the primaries, the party would
be apt to find itself seriously embar-
raised thereby. Clean politics and a
square deal is the only safe rule.

It is said that a bill will be intro
duced in the next legislature allowing
emigration agents the privilege of So
Letting, without taxation, ex-convicts
to leave the state. This law would
have the merit of getting rid of a
number of bad and worthless negroes
whose terms of criminal service have
hardened them to all descriptions of
law-breaking. The emigration agents
could be depended upon to locate the
ex-convicts and work on them.

Each of the national legislative bodies
now in session has a jolly row on hand;
the British Parliment because the

Chamber because the schools are to be

church; and in the German Reichstag
the trouble is with respect to grain and
other duties. AS soon as our Congress
has assembled we. also, may expect
some lively times, in the consideration
of duties.

a kick to the Treasury Department be-
cause he was charged S4s duties on "a
few trifies" for his grandchildren
which he brought home with him from

Treasury Department will not do any
good. The department cannot change

good taste for Gen. Otis to kick at
paying duties on Injuries so long as
duties are charged on beef. coal. cloth
