He knew that a yearning glance fell
upon him, now and then. through a film
of tears, but he refused recognition OF II.
He pictured himself lying sick unto death

And he pictured himself brought home from
the river dead, with his curls all wet and
his sore heart at rest How she would
throw herself upon him. and how her tears
would fall like rain and her lips pray God
to give her back her boy and she would
never. never abuse him any more, But
he would lie there cold and white and make
no sign-poor little sufferer. whose griefs
were at an end.
He so worked upon his feelings with the
pathos Of these dreams that he had to keep

obeyed.
When the manager came down from his
nth and final interview he let II be known
that 1t was worth anybody's job to allow
a representative OF the press to get at his
distinguished guest again that day, and
then went somewhere where he could re-
cuperate.
One enterprising reporter who tried to In
terview Lord Kitchener told the following
story OF his experience. 81 saw the gen.
eral making for an elevator and made

the car. / started to ask him few ques-
tons. Young man.. he said. L really can't

Lord Kitchener is certainly not overload

war correspondents He holds that no rep
resentative of the press should be allowed
to accompany an army during campaign
on the ground; that IL Is bad for the discl-
pline Of officers and men and that the dis
patches of the correspondents must neces-
sariIy give news to the enemy. This is the
story told by one correspondent who was
with Kitchener in South Africa:

Lord Kitchener is probably more feared
by careless officers under him than any
other commanding officer IN the English
service The following is story told by a
young captain who had been sent for be-
cause OF some trifing dereliction:

one eye and Just looked at me for a few
moments. The other eye seemed to be row

he got me with both eyes felt that it was

Another story that is told on Lord
Kitchener is this: During the BOer war

The Lord High Commissioner is almost

Lord Beaconsfield made this latter
offer by way of joke. never dreaming
that Lord Galloway would accept it.
But the earl received it in all serious
ness, and accordingly, Lord Beacons-
field having pledged himself In writing
to get the office Of Lord High Commits
sioner for Lord Galloway, had no alter
native but to fulfil his promise, and in
1887 the Assembly of the Church Of
Scotland at Edinburgh was presided
over by Lord Galloway with due solem-
nifty and decorum.
1t was probably the inability of the
late Lord Galloway to understand the
humor of this particular joke of Lord

monarchs deputy should be an eccle-

agreeable TO Presbyterian ears than II

that since the kings delegate was to
