 Some c. A. R. members withdrew from a parade in honor of Gen. iFtzhugh Lee because some Confederate veterans hoist ed Confederate flag The c. A. R. peo- pie might have been right from their standpoint, but suppose some Confeder- ate veterans had refused to march un- der a federal flag. A howl would go up that would not only make the welkin ring, but would probably bust the whole thing to slivers. The prime mistake of the whole affair was Gen. Lee parading as federal officer.

outdoor sports and pastimes. When he was in Egypt in command of the Egyptian army and of the English troops in that country, his chief pastime was in playing lawn tennis. On one occasion, some years ago, when I was visiting a friend in Cairo, my friend invited me to go with him to call upon Kitchener. It was late in the he was afraid that Kitchener would be at his tennis; and in answer to my inquiry he said that Kitchener played tennis an hour every afternoon. Arrived at his palace, General Kitchener's orderly in- formed us that his master was out.
 At tennis?' my friend asked.
 ''Yes, sir," was the orderly's answer.
 My friend, turning to me, said: We need not send for Kitchener; he would not leave his tennis even if the Khedive himself were here"
 Later I was introduced to General Kitchener at the English Club, and a more charming man never met He was as frank and jolly and open-hearted as a school boy. Thinly clad in white flannel. every contour and muscle of his magnifi- cent figure was plainly discernible as he strode up and down the smoking room of the club. I could scarcely keep my eyes off the man, so superbly majestic did he appear. General Kitchener Is a remark ably abstemious man as regards drink.

The Life of n Con, Miner.

First, the boy of s or 10 is sent to
the breaker to pick the slate and other
impurities from the coal which has
been brought up from the mine; from
there he is promoted and becomes
door boy, working in the mine; as he
grows older and stronger he is ad-
vanced to the position and given the
pay of a laborer; there he gains the
experience which secures him place
as a miners helper; and as he ac-
uuires skill and strength he becomes,
when in the height Of his manhood
and vigor, a full fledged miner. II ne
is fortunate enough to escape the falls
of rock and coal he may retain his po-
sition as a miner for number Oh
years; but as age creeps on and he IS
attacked by some of the many diseases
incident to work in the mines he makes
way for those younger and more Wig
orous following him up the ladder
whose summit he has reached. He then
starts on the descent, going back to
become a miners helper, then mine
laborer. now door boy; and when old
and decrepit he finally returns to the
breaker where he started as child,
earning the same wages as are received
bv the little urchins who work at his
side. There is no incentive for amDl'
ton in the average miners life. He
cannot rise to places of eminence and
wealth; only one in 500 can even be
given place as foreman or superin-
tcndent, and these are positions which
few mianrs care to hold.-john Mitch
ell. in The Cosmopolitan.
