of it. AS special favor to Presi-
dent Kruger, he will not be asked
to acknowledge the ascendancy of
England. Lord Kitchener, through
whose efforts the war was pushed
to the end, will be made a Wis
count and be granted gift of
$3.50, 900. The terms Of peace

if they will accept them in the
proper spirit, but many will still
refuse to submit.

THE LAY OF THE LAZY MAN.

Winter is too cold for work;
Freezing weather makes me shirk.
Spring comes on and finds me wishing
could end my days a-fshing.
Then in summer, when it's hot,
say work can go to pot.
That's the way the seasons run,
Seems l can't get nothing done.

Four secret service men made a

obucL duu L W6uL uOWu 10 camp,
Along with Captain Goodwin,
Where we see the men and boys
AS thick as has hasty-puddin.
There was Captain Washington
Upon a slapping stallion.
A-giving orders TO the menl
| guess there was a million.
And then the feathers on his hat,
They looked so tarnal fine.a
| wanted peskily to get
To give to my Jemima.
And then they had swappin' gun,
Large as big long maple,
On a dueced little cart
A load of fathers cattle.
And evey time they fred it off
1t took horn of powder;
1t made noise like fathers gun
Only a nation louder.
| went as near to it myself
AS Jacob't underpinin'
And father went as near again
| thought the duce was in him.
Cousin Simon grew so bold,
l thought he would have cooked
it;
1t scared me so, shrinked right
off,
And hung by fathers pocket.
And Captain Davis had a gun,
He kinder Clapped his hands on
it,
And stuck a crooked stabbing iron
Upon the little end of it.
And then / see pumpkin shell
AS big as mothers basin,
And every time they touched it off
They scampered like the nation.
And then see a little keg,
Its heads were made of leather;
They knocked upon't with little
sticks
To call the folks together.
And then they'd fife away like fun,
And play on corn-stalk fiddles;
And some had ribbons red as
blood,
All wound about their middles.
The troopers, too, would gallop up,
And fire right in our faces;
1t scared me almost half to death,
To see them run such races.
Old Uncle Sam come then to
change
Some pancakes and some onions,
For lasses cakes to carry home
To give his wife and young ones.
l see another snarl of men
A digging graves, they told me.
So tarnal long, so tarnal deep,
They tended they should hold
me.
1t scared me so, l hooked it off,
Nor slept as | remember,
Nor turned about till / got home,
Locked up in mothers chamber.

New York is said to be the most
charitable city in the world, and it
should be, with all the people of
vast wealth it has. A notable
charity is that of the establishment
all over the city of milk booths,
where the poor may get bottle of
prepared milk for children at one
cent a bottle, or of the ordinary
kind, pure, for nothing. This
charity has been dispensed by Mr..
Nathan Strauss, a millionaire, for
ten years past, and last year S0O,-
600 bottles were sold and given
away, and millions of glasses were
sold at cent glass. The milk
depots are kept open only during
the summer months.

PRINTING SHOP RAIDED
NY OFFICERS AND uNIoNIsTS
Has Printed Blue Labels for Cigars
Undecided for a Long Num-
ber of Years.

CHICAGO, Dec. ll.--In a raid by rots-
stables and labor leaders easiy today,
II is believed the greatest plant in the
country for counterfeiting union cigar
labels was discovered, says the Inter-
ocean. The printing establishment
OF Hiram Meits was entered and 10
counterfeit plates were captured from
which IL is believed all the counterfeit
labels in the United States have been
printed. One hundred thousand coun-
terfeit labels were also confiscated.
Officers OF the Cigarnakers' Interna-
tional union assert that the plates are
the only ones in existence, Meits ship
ped the counterfeit blue slips in lots,
varying from 1000 to 1o.ooo 10 all parts
Of the United States.
For the past four years George ].
Thompson, label secretary OF the Ci-
Earmakers' International union. has
been using every effort to entrap the
makers OF this plate. Last night was
the fourth consecutive night on which
he and constables and members of the
union have watched the printing es-
tablishrnent- until after midnight
The printing shop was entered by
strategem. Constable Philip Spiro and
Charles Bueschel arrested Meits be-
fore he realized the meaning Of the sud-
den rush. A. f, Adeloff. president Of
the Cigarmakers' union, and William
Magruger, former president OF the
New Jersey State Federation OF labor,
were the other members of the party
which captured Meits.
The prisoner was taken to the conn-
ty jail in default of sl5oo bonds.
