Then they would trek back home.
Long before the sun rose for new

third of mile away.
In the dim light they at first thought
It a wild animal, and examined their
rifles; then, as the object drew near,
they made it out to he a man, and
that he was on foot instead of horse

more than a boy, ana that he was an

1t was the dry season on the veldt,
and the grass was burned down and
half covered with yellow dust Not
kraal was to be seen or a habitation,
not a tree or shrub so far as the eye
could reach-only the ocher brown

north and south and east and west,
and crossing the sun blistered waste
one little animate dot, the canvas COW
cred wagon of a Boer family trekking
with the sheep and cattle in search of
a water course that had not dried up.
For three days had the dot been
moving across the waterless waste,
and for three days had the sun left the
thirsty Sky line in the east only to
glare down pitilessly until it dropped
behind the equally thirsty sky line in
the west, and now the tongues of the
cattle were hanging from their mouths
and the sheep bleated piteously, and
the small quantity of water brought
along for the trekkers' own use was
exhausted.
BY the end of the second day they
had expected to find water, but the
stream counted on had proved but O
dusty, sun dried depression, and for
twenty-four hours they had followed
its course hoping to find some sinh

London, Feb. lO.-The most famous

Great Central the other night to cele-
brate, by a banquet, the Whitehall con-
ference, at which, $50 years ago, Oliver
Cromwell decided that there was no
law which forbade Hebrews to return

man read a letter from HIM in which,
among other things, the former minis
ter wrote:
IF continental Europe followed the
example set by this country for the
last ESQ years, its history would not
be stained by so many crimes and in
justices, which now stand on record as
perpetual reproach to civilization;
that in this country there is no Hebrew
question, that race prejudice, religious
prejudices, which elsewhere play so dis
astrous a part in the social organization,
are unheard Of here, is due in no small
measure to the fact that Hebrews have
proved themselves entirely worthy Of
the rights and privileges which they
enjoy as citizens Of this country, and
that the rights and privileges have
been granted them in full measure.
Long may these conditions prevail;
long may they bear all the good fruit
which they have so abundantly pro-
duced in the past

Biarritz, Feb. 10.-Courtship under
the hmelight has never been pursued
with greater apparent enjoyment than
that between the young king of Spain
and the blonde beauty, Princess Ena
Of Battenburg. They accept the pen
alties of their position with the utmost
good humor and instead of seeking to
evade public attention they have boldly
faced it to some extent and lived it
down.
What charms everybody about them
is that they both look like lovers, and
everyone who has seen Princess Ena
finds it quite easy to understand how
pleased the young king is with his
choice. All except his mother, the
dowager- queen, who has made no secret
of her dislike Of the match, which is
perhaps only natural and motherly, see
ing that the king fatty declined to con-
slider either of the Austrian grand
duchesses proposed for him. Alfonso
is the twentieth century king. He poses
for his photographs with the greatest
delight and asks the photographer
quizzingly to tell him exactly the kind
of expression he desires, whether tragic,
laughing or sentimental.
The Princess Ena, too, is in the high
est spirits and appears to realize that
the more widely her counterfeit pre-
sentiment is known in Spain the better
her chance of getting at the hearts of
the reserved and naughty race with
which her future is to be identified.

London, Feb. 10.-Tho the court has
peen thrown into mourning by the death
OF the king of Denmark, society was
hardly prepared for the great reduction
which King Edward has made in the
number of court entertainments for the
approaching season, There will be no
state balls at Buckingham palace this
year, and the dance which the king and
queen have usually been at Windsor
Castle the Friday in Ascot week will
not takeSplac It is probable indeed
that the queen will spend the race week
at Sandringham and that the king will
entertain small party at Windsor
/ Castle for Ascot.
| The four courts which are state cere-
monies will be held by their majestios
as usual tho it may be necessary to post
pone them until after Easter. "
One of the greatest; disappointments
/ of the week was the semiprivate
launching of Britain's greatest. battle
ship, the Dreadnaught, for which great
preparations had been going on, at
Portsmouth for weeks, but command
came from the king that the splendid
ceremonial arranged for the occasion
would be inappropriate in view Of the
bereavement sustained by the queen in
the death of her father; therefore there
must be no bands and no decorations.
So down in haste were torn all. the dec
orations and triumphal arches which
were nearly complete.
Again, the curtailment Of the Dublin
season was a great disappointment to
the Dublin folk. The principal events,
drawing rooms and balls, were post
poned till next month and in the inter
val society over there will have to
content itself with. a few charitable
entertainments and one or two private
parties. 81. ~, So

SCOTS ARE BANDED TO

Amateur Society Organized to
Spread the Sway of
the Pipes.
Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service -.
Edinburgh, Feb. 1O.-An amateur So
ciety has been organized for the diffu-
sion Of the cult Of the bagpipe. Hith-
erto instruction in the art of playing
the national instrument of Scotland has
been confined to the pipe-majors and
other non-commissioned officers in the
Highland regimental pipe bands. The
new society will endeavor to popularize
the bagpipe, not only in Scotland but
thruout the entire world. In this work
they appeal to music loving Scots all
over the world.
Among the greatest enthusiasts of
bagpipe playing is Lord Archibald
Campbell, brother Of the Duke Of Ar
gyll, to whom the increase of the popu-
larity Of the bagpipe in recent years is
largely due. Like several Of the heads
of the Scottish clans Lord Archibald
Campbell maintains very fine pipe
band of his own. The Marquis Of Butte
also possesses his pipers, who display a
selection Of national airs every evening
during winter.
There are many grades Of bagpipes
and altho plain set can be purchased
for $25, at least $3.50 is frequently
given by enthusiasts for instruments of
especial finish. Highland sentiment it
self is said to be largely responsible
for the number Of patriotic scotsmen
who cultivate bagpipe playing. In the
Highland regiments many of the officers
are proficient performers, and one or
two well-known Highland laddies are
reputed never to travel without their
pipes.

London, Feb. 10.-The number Of

that or 6 per cent of them cannot

A. baronet, while raised sufficiently
in rank above the commoner to become
impressive is not SO high up the ladder
of nobility as to make the false wearer
of the title xcessively uncomfortable.
An attempt is to be. nade, however,
to put stop to all this free masquerade
ing of title. The former home secre-
ttary, Mr.. Akers Douglas, before he left
office, appointed a committee to make
inquiries on the subject and the chair
man Of the committee, which will hold
its meeting the week after next, is
Earle Pembroke.
The terms of reform enjoin the com
mittee to report whether any, and if SO
what, steps should be taken to safe
guard the stations Of the holders of the
baronetcies and to prevent the assump-
ton of the title by persons who have
no right to it. It is also to be consid-
cred whether it will be desirable to adj

journal Special Service
London, Feb. 1O.-The authorities
of New Zealand are determined to
stamp out consumption in that colony.
Many intended settlers who sailed for
that section recently have been re-
turned TO England on the ground that
they are suffering from tuberculosis
One of these intended settlers had sold
his business in Bradford, and had emf
grated to New Zealand in the hope
that the climate would cure him. It
Is claimed that the medical authorities
only subject emigrants to superficial
examination before leaving, while the
authorities of New Zealand insist upon
q thoro test. In the desire to keep
its people immune from disease the
New Zealand government excludes emf
grants of any nationality SUFFERING
from mental affections, or contagious
diseases Of dangerous nature, and the
authorities are especially severe in the
matter Of diseases of the lungs So
far has public sentiment carried the
government in matters of this sort tha5
laws will be passed prohibiting the
marriage of consumptives under severe
penalties. It is said to be the desire
Of the New Zealand government to
have that colony known as the land
without consumption.
