Experience OF a Candidate.

He cometh up like a flower and re-
tireth busted. His friends fill him
with false hopes and atmosphere. He
swelleth like toad and thinks the
earth his'n. He smileth upon all man
kind and sloppeth over with humor.
He kisseth the children and scattereth
his microbes among innocent babes.
He privately cheweth a Glove when he
meets preacher, and as he convers-
eth with him he standeth in the lee
ward and curbeth his breath as with
a strong bit. He goeth home late at
night to his dreary wife with berry
breath and cold feet. He riseth up
before time and hiketh forth before
breakfast, saying, 81 go to see a
man." The dead beat lieth in wait
and pulleth his leg to aqueen's taste.
He "naileth life'' but before election
he runneth short of nails. He giveth
literally to the church, he subscribeth
good sum to the band, contributeth
good sum to the poor, whose barn
was burned. he sendeth a small keg
hither and a large key thither, he
yieldeth up his substance with appar-
emily alacrity. After the elections he
goeth back of the barn and kicketh
himself and teareth his hair and calls
himself Rotterdam fool.-Alta Oh.

British Foreign Office First Investigat.
ing to What Extent Holland and the
Boer Delegates in Europe Represent
the Burehers in the FieId-If Salts.
factory Guarantees Are Secured Ne.
sotiations Will Begin.
London, Jan. 29.-The government
leader, A. ]. Balfour, announced in the
house of commons during the day that
no overture for peace had been receiv.
ed from anyone authorized to speak
in behalf of the Beers. A comulAca-
ton was, however, received late Sat
urday last from the Dutch government
which was now under consideration.
Mr.. Balfour hoped shortly to lay the
communication and the reply to it be.
fore the house.
Regarding the statement of Mr.. Bal
four it is learned that the government
of Holland has offered in the most
friendly terms to help in bringing
about peace in South Africa. In
communication to the British govern
ment the Dutch government suggests
that it might be permitted to act as
sort of diplomatic agent for the Boer
delegates. The government, however,
expressly disavows any attempt at in.
tervention and does not mention any
terms.
1t was learned by a representative
of the Associated Press that the Brit
ish government infers it would not
have been approached unless the
Dutch authorities were convinced that
the Boer delegates now In Europe were
willing to accept the cardinal points
of the British peace terms, so frequent
ly announced in parliament.
Lord Lansdowne, the foreign Sec
rotary, replied in friendly terms to The
Netherlands proposal, but instituted
inquiries in order to ascertain the eX-
tent of the powers delegated to Mr..
Kruger and the other Boer representa-
tives in Europe to act in behalf of the
burghers in the field. A great doubt
is expressed at the foreign Office here
as to whether any negotiations carried
on by the Boer delegates through the
Dutch government or other channels
will sprove effectual. If satisfactory
guarantees in this respect can be Sc
cured, negotiations will be begun i'm
mediately. This doubt in regard to
the. authority of Mr.. Kruger and others
to speak for the fighting burghers is
perceptible in the statement Mr. Bal
four made in the house of commons,
as detailed above.
A supplementary army estimate of
95,000,000 was issued during the aft
ernoon, making the total expenditure
