The King of Italy and the Peasant.

Here is little story, says the Wo-
mans Home Companion, about the
young King of Italy which is being
printed in the Italian papers, and which
is worth reproducing. The King was
staying in the country at his palace in
Raccorrigi. He is little known to the
people there, for in his walks about
the neighborhood he always strives to
preserve his incognito. Hence come
some curious adventures. One day,
while out tramping, he got very thirsty,
and seeing a woman milking COW in
field near by, he went up to her and
asked her for a. glass of milk.
Il can't give you any of this" said
the woman, but if you'll mind the
COW I'll go to the house and get you
some"
So the King minded the cow till the
woman returned with a glass of cool
milk. Then he asked her where all the
farm hands had gone.
"Oh, they're always running away
now to try to see the King" answered
the woman.
And why do you not go? Don't
you want to see the King?"
Some one must stay and look after
things"
well, little mother" smiled the
guest, you see the King without run
ming away from your work.
You're joking!" exclaimed the wo-
man, who could not believe that mon
arch could be so quietly dressed. But
when the King put a gold coin into
her hand she fell on her knees, while
he continued his walk, laughing over
the incident.

Lii Wrote to Both Men.

Many tales are told of the dealings of
Ii Hung Chang with his diplomatic
subordinates. and there is a charac-
teristic story afloat with regard to his
relations with the present minister to
England. Sir Chih-chen Lo Feng Luh,
says the Candid Friend. The time was
that of the siege of the legations in
Pekin, when all the civilized world was
in fear as to the fate of the beleagu-
cred, and when China, with her ennis
saries and all pertaining to her, was
looked on with no very friendly eve.
Ii Hung Chang was the virtual ruler
of China, and it was from him that the
various ministers and ambassadors re-
celved their instructions. There had
apparently been some fresh manifesto
ton of European displeasure, when one
day the minister in England received
from Lii message, the purport of
which was as follows:
I'VE are not satisfied with your eff
forts in London. The English are hos
tile, and you must do something to al
ter matters. You are not energetic
enough. You are neglecting to inf1u-
ence the government. The man who Is
doing all the work is your colleague in
Washington. WI Ting Fang. He is
the man you should initiate
Unfortunately for Lis little game SIR
Chih-chen and WI Ting Fang hap
pened to be close friends, and the min
lister here confided what had happened
to his friend in Washington. WI Ting
Fang was, to say the least of it, sur
Drised.
This is very extraordinary" he re-
piled. II also have had a message
from Ii Hung Chang. This is what
he says to me:
Your efforts are not giving salts
faction. We feel you should be more
energetic, and that you should try to
influence the American government TO
take our side in this affair. You are
not doing half enough and, if you want
an example, you should turn to Sir
Chih-chen Lo Feng Luh, the minister
in London. He is the man who is do
ing all the work

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Washington Post Qnd) says:
1.-THE governor of South Carolina talks
vigorously now, but the country is able
to recall that he is the person who neg
lected great opportunity when he
found pair of Senatorial designations
in his mail"
1--WE judge that the time is at hand
when the President must put himself
at the head of the forces that are fight
ing for duty and humanity toward
Cuba as President Cleveland took COM
inland of the forces that won the long
fight for the repeal of the ruinous Sher-
man Silver Purchase act
The Philadelphia Record (Dem.) says:
THE ruling of the Post Office Depart
ment that a subscription to a newspa-
per entitled to- second-class rates made
and paid for by one person to be sent
to another person with the latter's con-
sent is mott legitimate subscription,
entitled to pound rates, but must be
stamped in a seperate package, and
prepaid as the third-class matter at the
rate of one cent for each four ounces,
is obviously a strained Interpretation
of the law The subscriber to the pa
per may have it sent to his agent or
his wife or his mother-in-law for pur-
poses strictly personal. 1t is a matter
of business into which neither the pub
Usher nor the carrier can rightfully in
quire. The attempted twist given to
the law by the Department is farfetch-
ed, meddlesome and mischeivous."
The New York Commercial (Dem.)
says zone of the most cheerful re-
suits of the latest census of this coun-
try is the evidence it presents of the
growth of the South as a manufactur-
ing field. 1t is nearly a half century
now since the civil war Frustrated the
energies of the South and paralyzed
it's industries. But the awakening
came, and it's results are already ap-
parent in every part of the Southern
section of the land. Factories have
arisen on the bloodstained battlefelds,
and the gentle and profitable arts of
peace now hold sway in the old Con-
federate States. The Southerners' en-
terprise and courage have drawn to
their States capital and labor from
many lands, and their energy is MAX
ing both labor and capital receive gen.
erous reward for their employment. 1t
will not be long before the Southern
States will take a high rank among
manufacturing and industrial sec
tons"

GLOOMY OUTLOOK FOR THE BoERs

GLOOM1 OIILOOh FOH THE BOEHS
A few more such victories as that
gained by the British during the lat
ter part of last week. an account of
which appeared in our dispatches yes
terday. and the Beers will be without
the means of continuing the war. 1t
mas been tine cause OF wonder for a
long time where the Beers got the
men and supplies for continuing the
war. The sources of their supplies
must now, however, be pretty well
exhausted. They have made a defense
of their cause that has excited the
admiration of the world. If they go
down in defeat, and it looks as if they
would, they will have the satisfaction
of knowing that they have the sym
pathy of liberty loving people every
where.
The Boer delegates, Messrs. Vessels
and Wolmarans who arrived at New
York a day or two ago, will hardly
meet with the kind of a reception that
would be given them if there were
ground of hoping for the success of
the Boer cause. They will of course
have the sympathy of most of those
with whom they come in contact, but
they will be told that it is useless to
make an effort to help their country
men in view of the fact that they are
struggling against overwhelming
odds, and that it cannot be very long
before the Boer republics will be ut
terly exhausted Their arrival does
not seem to have made much of an
impression. That is not because there
are not sympathisers in New York,
but, as already stated, because it is
thought the fight in South Africa is
practically over. 1t is certain that the
British feel that way, OF else the dis
patch of Gen. Kitchener giving an ac-
count Of his victory of last Thursday,
would not have been read in Parlia-
ment.
There is an impression that the
Boer commanders are now considering
peace terms submitted to them by
Gen. Kitchener. 1t is said that these
terms are in harmony with the re-
Gently expressed views of Lord Rose
berry. King Edward is extremely anx-
ious that there shall be peace through
out the empire at the time of his cor
onation. That is the reason, 1t is said,
why the Beers are offered terms much
less humiliating to them than uncon-
ditional surrender. 1t is not known, Ct
course. exactly what the terms are,
but it is understood tina. it is pro-
posed that the two republics the
Transvaal AMI the Orange Free State
shall be united and bee )me a crown
colony to be governed by an appoint
i've council composed OF Englishmen
and Beers, the Erglishmen being in
the majority until the affairs of the
colony become settled, when the Beers
are to have as many members as the
English. Thu crown colony condition
is to exist only as long as it may be
necessary % a thorough paciiicatlon
of the country. When that is accom-
r'shed the Beers are to become
governing community.
There is of course nothing official
as to terms being offered. The fore
going is simply the impression of the
situation that prevails in London. If
peace negotiations have not been be-
gun it would not be surprising if they
should be very soon.

TILLMAN'S AND M'LAURIN's STAND

In the Senate the Tillman- McI.aurin
incident was closed when the two sem
ators We're censured in accordance with
the decision of that body, though Sena-
tor Tillman's intimation that the sem
ators' standard for dealing with such
matters was hardly that recognized by
gentlemen came near having other
consequences for him. But how will
the incident affect the standing of
Senators Tillman and McLaurin in
their state? 1t is doubtful if McLau-
rims popularity will be increased or di-
minished. The charge which Tillman
made against him, and which was the

ana had been used for all it was worth
from the standpoint of local politics.
The language which McLaurin
employed in the Senate in de-
nying it was little more
emphatic perhaps than that which
he had used in denying it III his ad-
dresses to his constituents. 1t is doubt
full if Eis violation of the rules of the
Senate, in using supplementary Ian
guage, will count much against him. 1t
looks, therefore, as if he would stand
about as solidly with his constituents
as he did before the trouble occurred.
With Tillman the situation is little
different. 1t seems TO be conceded that
he is not as popular at home as he once
was. There is no doubt an element

If such persons would lay their pref

two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets the
food would be quickly and thoroughly

Carried Millions on His Back.

When Baron RothschiId was paying
a visit to New York a reception was
given him in a certain great house,
SAYS the Ladies' Home Journal. The
affair was in charge of Brown, the
famous old sexton of Grace Church.
Another reception was being held the
same evening in house almost imme-
diately opposite, which was also in
charge of the sexton The Baron
wished to attend the second affair, but
the street was full of mud, the night
was disagreable and no carriage was
at the curbstone. He could not walk
across without soiling his boots and
evening clothes, and for the moment
he was in a predicament as to what
he should do. But he was soon relieved
of this dilemma. 'I'll carry you across
myself, said Brown jovially; now,
mount my shoulders" and grasping
him as if he had been a child he car
ried the nobleman across on his back.
