An English countess, grandee
dame, aged 60, shocked all England
and part of this country by marrying
her coachman. She was possibly
looking for a man and had to get out
side of the royalty. The English are
learning a good many things about the
common people, the greatest lesson
being taught by the Boer war, when
the real fighters were developed from
the men in the ranks instead of those
who were able to buy commissions.

We learn from Washington .dispatch-

some difference of opinion among Re-
publican leaders as to the phraseology

there would be. With a dozen trade
congresses and associations asking for
a modification of the tariff in the inter-
est of our exports, with tariff reform
spreading through the west and with

will mean what every Republican

in terms of wonder at its dimensions and it's cratic variety. The final break was from a rush to take profits on the days enormous trading and on a bear raid. The published assertion that the retirement of the Oregon Short Line participating bonds had been determin- ed on was the melting cause of this extraordinary movement. The truth of this report could not be learned from any official source. The exact benefits to accrue to Union Pacific were not .Nery obvious. Northern Securities stock, which forms the collateral for these
 bonds, makes the payment of interest a burden on Union Pacific; heavy capi-
 tai requirements would have to be met to retire them and the release of North ern Securities stock would be the only
 advantage pereeptible.
 But it was assumed, in spite of em- lphatic official disclaimers, that a set. tlement of the Northern Securities dis pute and a community of interest in lt the transeontinental railroad world was involved. The buoyant rise in St. Paul was regarded as corroborative of this
 assumption. The market was subject ed to enormous profit-taking through out the day and the result was constant Iirregularity and occasional weakness.
 The profit-taking in the low-priced stocks, which were most conspicuous in yesterdays market. was very obvious throughout, but was ignored until late
 in the day.
 Losses were the rule, running to be-
 tween 1 and points, and even more in many cases. The closing was decidedly weak and without recovery. Bear raid ing was active and rumors of further mob violence against the Russian am lbassador in London proved effective in
 breaking prices where former news was ignored The strong demand for gold
 from Paris and Berlin is attributed to preparations for further loans to Rus l sia.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
 par value, $11,O47, ,OO0.
 United States bonds were unchanged

AT ST. PAUL's PARISH HOUSE.
Missionaries from South Africa to
 t Speak ~

Missionaries from South Africa to Speak. & Rev. w. Spencer Walton, one of the Keswick convention speakers, also at Northfield this summer, will address a meeting in St. Paut's parish house to- morrow evening at 8 D. m. on the work of the South Africa General Mission of which Mir. Walton is founder and superfnt endent, This mission whose president is Rev. Andrew Murray D, D., is interdenomfnation and the members of all churches will find an interest and will be cordially welcom- ed, E
 The South Africa General mission was organized in London, England, in 1889. It's field of operations is the southern third of Africa It has over one hundred trained workers and a large number of native evangelists The expense is kept at q minimum by much gratuitous service in administra- tive and other departments The mis- sionaries receive help only in propor- tion to the income. t
 From small beginning at Cape Town, the work has spread now throughout Cape Colony, Orange River Transvaal and Natal colonies, and in the heather countries Of Pondoland Swazieland, Zululand. Tongoland Gazaland, and as far north as the Zambesi river, about one-third the immense continent which is larger than North and South American combined It is the purpose of the mission to make known the Gospel to all the heather in it's sphere of labor within the present generation. It is supported by prayer and freewill offerings. Those who will become home helpers will thereby assist very important work in the cause of Christ.
 MT. Walton and his helpers have had most thrilling experiences also in their work amongst the soldiers. Sometimes on the field of battle with bullets rain- ing around, and sometimes in the hos pital On one occasion wounded, on another struck to the ground by light ming and much injured, at one time in terrible heat, at another in the bitter cold; now dealing with some weary soul longing to know a personal Sa- viour, then addressing hundreds of the British soldiers, who crowded and packed the marque specially set apart for services for men, Such were some of the everyday experiences of those who represented the South Africa Gen. eral mission at the front.

A discussion on "The Chief Need of Our congregationalism' followed. This was opened in an in- teresting manner by Rev. Artemas J, Haynes and the Rev. R. R. Newlands, MT. Haynes in the course of his re- marks said that we needed revival oi spiritual religion and said that he be- lieved in saving the people in the churches before going into the streets to do missionary work. ]. By this he said that he meant that the people in the churches should first be fitted for the work of reaching helping hands to those outside. = ~
 MT. Newlands' remarks were of the same tenor. He argued that a spiritu. al awakening inside the church was necessary and gave statistics to show the decrease in membership in the churches and in the Sunday schools.
 The Rev. William W. Leete then read a paper on the Things That Are Coming Our Way; and Some That Are Going the Other Way" which was lis tened to very attentively. MT. Ernest c. Johnson followed MT. Leete with a few impromptu remarks. Afterward a long discussion followed in regard tc the subjects that had been taken up Nearly all of the different delegates Econtributed their different ideas and the discussion exceeded the time thai had been originally prescribed.
