MAKING rhemselres Userul.

The boys at the Soldiers Orphans
Home at Normal are not spending
their entire time in play these days.
The older boys are engaged in making
repairs on the school buildings, es-
pecially in the carpenter work, put
ting things in the best possible shape
for the beginning of school this fall.
They have also finished a neat fence
around the farm, which is an added
Improvement to the grounds. There
is always some little repairing to be
done in one or more of the buildings
or about the premises, SO that the
boys do the work simply because they
enjoy it, spending part of the day at
work and the rest in amusing them
selves by rOmping about. Much mon
ey is thus saved the state by those
whom Illinois supports. The home
presents clean, inviting appearance.
and was never in better condition
than it is today. The flower beds to
the front and over the grounds are in
full bloom and the variety and frag.
rance is delightful. The walls i'm
some of the rooms have been painted
and calsomined, thus refreshing the
apartments. One of the needed i'm
proyements of the home is a new roof
for the main building, as many leaks
have been discovered, and only last
week the heavy rains sent water
through and damaged the ceiling i'm
several places so that an entire new
roof will be among the things asked
of the state in the appropriation.

The retirement of Justice Gray of
the United States supreme court has
furnished text for many reminis-
cences of bis earlier days. While he
was a member of the supreme court
of Massachusetts he had an amusing
experience with certain Boston
lawyer, an exceedingly pious man
with a taste for evangelization, who
had his letter head printed with a
verse from scripture in large type fol-
lowing the name and address. On
one occasion, having to make an ex
parte preliminary argument before
Judge Gray in chambers. in which it
would be necessary to disclose GER
tain parts of his clients case which
he desired not to make generally pub
lie until the trial. he wrote the judge
note. asking that he be allowed an
opportunity to speak to him in pri-
Vate. He was somewhat chagrined
when his note came back TO him with
a scrawl across the bottom: Request
denied, with a suggestion from the
court that counsel base future pc
titions on more appropriate cita-
ton" For moment he could not
make out the meaning of this, as he

KITCHENER ON SOUTH AFRICA.
British General Says It is a New
America.

A dispatch from London yesterday says:
Amid tremendous enthusiasm, Lord Kitch-
ener was today presented with a sword of
honor, the gift of Cape Town. Colonel
Dimsdale, lord mayor of London, made the
presentation in the course Of a South Afri-
can dinner, which was attended by many
notable persons. When the enthusiasm had
sufficiently subsided for Lord Kitchener to
thanks for the gift and expressed the con-
f1dent hope that in South Africa, at any
rate, the sword would not again be drawn
from It's scabbard. Lord Kitchener eu-
logized Lord Miner, the British high COM
missioner in South Africa, and made
striking appeal, based upon his intimate
and personal friendship with and knowl-
edge of the South African administrator
that he be given the confidence and SYM
pathy of the British nation. Referring to
the mineral and agricultural wealth of the
new territory, Lord Kitchener said:
You may assure yourselves that you
have nothing less than the makings of a
new America in the southern hemisphere"
He said the question as to who would
supply the energy, brains and money re-
quired to carry out this great develop
ment was one more for his hearers than
for himself but when, as in South Africa
patriotism was Joined to self-interest he
was not afraid they would fail to SOW the
seed and reap the harvest for which he
hoped those who had recently been in
South Africa had prepared.
