SEVERELY cRITlcIsE IT.
London Press Resent the 6oer Appeal
for Funds.

tor funOS.
London, Sept, 25.-Tho tone ara
contents of the manifesto OF the Boer
generals, which was issued il the
form of an appeal 10 the civilized
world for contributions to ASST iesti-
tute Beers and help in tho eda. alton
OF Boer children, excite the Utmost
resentment of the whole British press
and the document tends to Al; onate
the sympathy which has hitherto been
felt for the Boer people in many quar-
ters. It is regarded as manifesto Of
hostility to Great Britain and the work
not of Generals Botha, DeWet and
Delarey, but of DR.. Leyds. the Euro
pean representative of the Beers. and
Mr.. Reitz, former state secretary of
the Transvaal. another blunder which
the Beers will live to regret.
The statement contained in. the
manifesto that 10000 house, have
been burned is declared 10 be gross
exaggeration, and complaiIt ) made
that while the document presents, the
case against Great Britain in the
worst possible light, it dishonesty
ignores the fact that the British gov
ernment has promised the advance
loans free of interest for two years
to enable the Beers to resettle on the
farms. 1t is pointed out that even If
the Beers estimate of 10000 farms
destroyed is correct, the $15,000000
granted under the peace terms will
give each family $500. The idea that
the appeal is likely to result in getting
anything like $15O,0OO,000 is regarded
rs ridiculous as preposterous.

TyAv Cause of Vice.

Vice is due chiefly to inattentton; not
ignorance, but thoughtlessness. Il see
the better and approve, yet l pursue
the worse" In this case knowledge is
not absent, but defective. 1t is on the
margin instead of in the focus Of con-
seriousness. In the language of physio-
logical psychology a present appetite
presents it's claims on great pillows Of
nerve commotion which come rolling in
with all the tang and pungency which
is the characteristic mark of immediate
peripheral eXcitation. The future con-
sequences of the qualification Of that
appetite, on the contrary, are represent
ed by the tiny, faint, feeble waves
which flow over from some other brain
center, excited long ago, when the con-
nection of this particular cause with it's
natural effect was first experienced.
In such an unequal contest between
powerful vibrations shot swift and
straight along the tingling nerves from
the seat of immediate peripheral COM
motion and the meager, measured flow
Of faded impressions whose initial We
locity and force were long since spent
what wonder that the remote effect
seems dim, vague and unreal, and that
the immediate qualification of the in
sistent, clamorous appetite or passion
wins the day!-William De Witt Hyde

Then, darting forward, she tore it from

SnnT and a Crook.

Robert Pinkerton once told story Of
his father, the founder Of the detective
agency, which illustrates the elder
Pinkerton's caution. A noted criminal
was detained in Pinkertons Chicago
office. The elder Pinkerton left the room
and when he returned took the precau-
ton of holding a revolver in front of
him ready for use.
He saw the criminal standing by the
door with a snuffboX he had picked
up from Pinkerton's desk in his hand.
''This is good snuff" affably re-
marked the crook as he took sniff.
"For the eyes or the nose?" asked
Pinkerton, who knew that the crook
had intended to blind him in an effort
to escape.
"WelL" remarked the criminal, 'T'm
sorry to say that the nose gets it this
time"
