Initiative On Part Of Holland Iastissied BY

london, Feb. 1.-The Daily News,
giving the alleged genesis of the pro-
posal from the government Of the Meth
erlands on the subject of the South
African war, says that from the first
DIR. Kuyper, the Dutch premier, stipu-
lated that he would take no part in
either arbitration or mediation, and
expressed the view that he would have
to bring pressure on the Boer delegates
to persuade them to abandon their de-
mand for independence. He explained
his position to an English visitor, who
went to urge him to take action. This
visitor afterward communicated to Mr..
Chamberlain, the colonial secretary,
and to Lord Lansdowne, the secretary
of state for foreign affairs, DR.. Kuyper's
views and his offer to become ''friend-
ly negotiator. I" Mr.. Chamberlain
courteously replied that he was inter
ested in the proposal, but could not rec
ognize any approaches unless they were
made by the Beers themselves. The
reply of Lord Lansdowne intimatedsthat
he had sent the proposal to Lord Sails
bury, and that there the matter had re-
mained until DR.. Kuyper visited Lon
don.
The Brussels correspondent of the
Standard declares that the peace initi-
ative on the part Of Holland was decid-
ed upon at the personal instigation of
Queen Wilhelmina, in cabinet council
at which she presided. The corre-
spondent says that Mr.. Kruger was in
formally and confidentially acquainted
with this proposed step, but declared
he could not charge the Dutch govern
ment with any mission of peace, as
long as Great Britain rejected the idea
of Boer independence.

cago, early today, one man was killed
and four Others were 50 severely injured
that they will probably die. Cold
weather is thought to have been the
immediate cause Of the accident. II is
supposed that the molten iron at the
top Of blast furanOe became chilled
and d'clogged at the top. When the men
opened the vent at the bottom to draw
of this metal, the whole mass slid
down, covering the workmen from head
to foot, with the white-hot metal.

Not 20 BE RplAed.

A comparison made by an old cars
penter twenty years ago may be apl
piled in much wider sense than he
had in mind. He was speaking of two
boys, brothers, who had been sent to
him to learn the trade. They were
bright boys, and their father, in telling
the carpenter of his pleasure at their
progress In their work, said he could
not see but one hand had done Just as
we'll as the other.
"Um-mr' said the carpenter. Il pre-
sumo to say their work looks about Of
Il piece, but I'll tel you the difference
betwixt those two boys. You give Ed
just the right tools, and he'll do real
good job; but Cy, II he hasn't got what
he needs, he'll make his own tools, and
say nothing about 1t.
"If was casted on desert island
and wanted box opened, / should
know there'd be no use asking Ed to do
It. without could point him out a
hammer.
"But Cy!' added the old carpenter.
with a snap of his fingers. "The lack
of a hammer wouldn't stump that boy!
He'd have something rlgged up and
that box opened, If there was any open
to It! | expect Cy's going to march
ahead of Ed all his life"
Twenty years have proved the truth
of the words, for while the boy who
made his own tools" Is rich, his broth
er Is still an ordinary workman.
