Leaders Make Recumn eudHtions to CO.
IOmiaI Secretary Chamberlain.
Pretoria, Transvaal. Jan. 8.-A meet
ing Uf influential burghers yesterday
drafted an address FOR presentation to
Colonial Secretary Chamberlain and the
legislative council, embOdying the views
OF the leaders. Among the recommen-
dations are general amnesty. the main
tenancc Of the TransvaaFs pre-War
regulations regarding natives, the i'm
portation of cattle by the government
and their sale to the burghers at actual
cost, and the abolition Of the South AZ
rican constabulary.
General BOtha, DeWet and Lelarey
strongly urged the necessity for a mod
Grated attitude and organization to as
sist the present government. General
Botha reported that $525,OOO had been
collected in America and Europe for the
relief of destitute Beers.
Chnlnberlntm Disseminated.
Pretoria, Transvaal, Jan. 5. - Mr..
Chamberlain, replying to the address of
the burghers, said the terms already
granted were decidedly generous and
there was no prospect of general am
nesty. He declared the government
proposed abiding by the terms of the
Fereniging peace convention, with
which the Boer leaders at the time Of
the surrender had complied. The cases
of the burghers now in Europe would
be considered individually on their mer-
its, said Mr. Chamberlain, and these
burghers should prove their loyalty by
accounting for the gold taken to Eu-
rope. The secretary said also that the
annexation of the Vryheid and Utrecht
districts to Natal was irrevocable and
that the natives would be compelled to
observe their obligations. He declared
he would have been better pleased had
the address Of the burghers, instead Of
consisting merely Of demands contain
ed some recognition of what his majes-
tvs government had already done for
the Beers.
Johannesburg, Jan. 8.-ColoniaI Secre-
tary Chamberlain arrived here to-day
and was demonstratively welcomed by
10000 people.

A HARMONIOUS BLACKSMITH

/ The artist policeman and the literary
shoemaker of England have a rival in
! Wales. He is a literary blacksmith,
known by his hardic name Of Myrdlin
Fardd-certainly a more distinctive til
] tie than his baptismal name of John
Jones. He plies his forge at Cwilog, in
| Carnarvonshire, and in the intervals of
| his trade has been for forty years an
active worker in the field of WEIGH lit
erature. He has written many books in
Welsh and many poems of considerable
merit. But his chief literary work is
that of searching for old manuscripts
in country and farmhouses throughout
Wales. He had collected a great guam
tity of these manuscripts, but has re-
Gently been compelled to sell them to
pay the expenses of the Illness Of his
son, who has recently died Of consump=
ton. We are sorry to hear that this
talented blacksmith is now unable to
continue his useful work owing to age
and poverty.
1t seems pity that something should
not be done for Myrddin Fardd. and
perhops the Welsh members may have
their attention drawn to this cose. He
has been visited by Principal Rhys and
Bishop Lloyd, who found great pleas
ure in his company. He has picked up
enough Latin to be able to read the
classocs with comparative ease, and he
is perhaps the best living authority in
his own peculiar subject of the old
Welsh bards.
But the antiquarian sphere of litera-
ture happens to be one which is pecu-
liarly unremunerative, and it is not
perhaps remarkable that a village
blacksmith, however harmonious,
should have found himself unable to
make living where so many 9TH
ers have failed. He is now sixty-flve
years of age, and in failing health. He
has had to part from the work at the
forge, which is his only means Of live
lihood. Surely there must be Welsh
men who con do something for this in
teresting man. and enable him to end
his life in leisure.-London Daily News

EXERCISE IN DANCING.

If the calculations of London medi-
cal authority are to be taken seriously,
dancing must be the most strenuous &C
tivity in all the range Of social exer-
tons. According to his statistical de-
auctions, the average waltz takes dan
GERS over three quarters Of mile and a
square dance represents distance of
half a mile. His reckoning on the two
step is not given, but it is reasonable to
conclude that nearly a mile must be
covered in one Of these dances. An
evening devoted to this form of enjoy
ment frequently includes as many as
twenty dances, generally divided even
ly between Waltzes and two-steps. Ac-
cording to the statistics above, these
dances would represent a distance of
nearly eighteen miles, heightened con-
siderabIy by the usual encores and ex-
tras One seldom stops to think of
such a material factor as distance when
dancing, but the effect of physical eX-
ertion is frequently experienced the
morning after. 1t is gratifying to note
the general tendency toward what is
called half time" in dancing, move
ment that not only serves to make this
accomplishment less fatiguing, but also
invests it with more of the grace and
courtliness of the minuets of our an
cestors-Town and Country.

The Baseball Prospects.
Captain Winsow of the Yale baseball
team met the candidates for the pitch
er's position last evening and discussed
the plans which have been outlined for
the seasons work The candidates will
begin practice this afternoon in the
baseball cage in the rear of the Yale
gymnasium. Twelve candidates for the

coached by professional twirler who
will be secured at once.
1t is the prevailing sentiment at Yale
that Harvard will produce the most for
midable baseball team of the coming
season, and that Princeton will rank
third. Despite these conditions Yale
will endeavor to develop a team that
will trounch both Harvard and PRINCE

BABy'S FUTURE
Something for Mothers
to Think About.
Lives of Suffering and
Sorrow Averted

II Assured by
CutlcuraSOap, Ointment andPilIs
When All Else Fails. 4.

Every child born into the world with
an inherited or early developed ten
dency to distressing, disiguring hui
mours Of the skin, scalp and blood, be-
comes an object Of the most tender So
licitude, not only because Of its suffer-
ing, but because Of the dreadful fear
that the designation is to be lifelong
and mar its future happiness and pros
perity. Hence it becomes the duty of
mothers of such afflicted children to ac-
quaint themselves with the best, the
purest and most effective treatment
available, viz, The Cuticura Treatment.
Warm baths with Cuticura Soap to
cleanse the skin and scalp of crusts and
scales, gentle applications Of Cuticura
Ointment, to allay itching, irritation
and Inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and mild doses Of Cuticura Resolvent
Pills, to cool the blood in the severer
cases, are all that can be desired for the
alienation Of the suffering of skin tor
tured infants and children, and the COM
fort of WORKOUT parents. =##
Millions Of women use Cuticura Soap,
assisted by Cuticura Ointment, for pre-
serving, purifying and beautifying the
skin, for cleansing the scalp of erusts,
scales and dandruff, and the stopping
of falling hair, for softening, whitening
and soothing red, rough and sore hands,
for baby rashes, itchings and chafngs,
in the form of washes for annoying
irritations and determinations, and for
many sanative, antiseptic purposes
which readily suggest themselves.

THE OLD-TIME MACHINE sH

THE OLD-TIME MACHINE SHOP.
The machine work fifty years ago
was not as good as it Is now, one rea-
son being that the machines themselves
were defective, not only In weight and
design, but in workmanship as we'll;
another reason was that in many cases
the filter had to go over the work again
in any event, so that it would be time
wasted to complete the lathe work in
the lathe. To be truthful l must add
that the fitting was by no means what
it should have been. not so much
through carelessness on the part of the
men as from the lack of Instruments Of
precision for measuring First and
last these consisted chiefly Of calipers,
inside and out, and a two-foot lockwood
rule. Now. if this last had been a con-
sistent member of large family, it
would have been in harmony with the
others, but the trouble was that it diff
fered in minute degrees Of assertion as
to the length Of an inch and fractions
thereof, so that where different men
went by various rules, all Of them Civ
ing false testimony, the results were
not at all surprising, and the lockwood
rules fell into disrepute as guides to ac-
curacy. Magazine.
