Reading the article about Lord Kitchen

reminds me of an incident which occurred
during the Boer war.
Three country laborers, Barbadians, came
into my shop for a soft drink. One was a
fine looking fellow of about six feet, and we'll
proportional. The Others were just ordinary
looking chaps.
Seeing the pictures of Kitchener and some
of the other generals tackled against the
shelves, my six f%ooters's attention was cen
tered on the hero of Khartoum, and he i'm
mediately remarked Hello boys, there's
Kitchener. Fine man, I would give my life
for that man. l saw him often when l was

Dear Nh. Editor,

The Editor st. Croic 1yiS and Bulletin.
Dear MIR. Editor,
Will you allow me q few words not about
a much spoken of accident itself in West End;
but about the manner in which the Public
hastens to the place Of accident and express
es its opinion.
1t is p~raiseworthy to defend a friend, but
it is not SO praiseworthy when in the heat Of
defense you throw stones ut the colleagues
of your friend,-especially anonymously.
If it is true, that other teachers are Just as
blameworthy or more, than the teacher in
question, then it would have been more cor
rect and more in accordance with morals to
stand forth ciM yoU' name stuck 10 50tn'
moral and have called the attention OF the
authorities concerned to the fact, when 1t
took place.
But-afterwards to put up a mysterious
face and say: many others have done the
same and have not been punished, has no
thing to DO with morals but much to do with
SANDER.
When you in private speak about these in
innate matters and n person present says:
oh! [ know about him or her., and you
press the person for proof, and he answers,
not alone with establishment but nearly Of
Tended: "Not alone l know, but my dear Sir
CCtI BOOU4 hftOUo -lulS INSt On CSSlOu 10
the standard proof Of all anonymous cow
ards-well then, if you have some morality
yourself, be it little or much, religious or
worldly, you shlug your shoulders at this
person and mutter: He had better shut his
mouth.
But as it is in private, exactly the same
1t is in public.
When you fling a stone at others aud
lack the moral courage to stand forth and
say l did it, and l can prove my reasons
why my moral feeling was reused, then YOU
had better leave alone tiingiug the stone,
for your own sake.
At all events don't speak so much of morals
and the ten comnandments-anOnymottsfy y.
With thanks, Mr.. Editor, for your hos

About the comedy advertised in the pres
ent issue we are able to give the following:
The farcical comedy "Behind Time, which
is to be presented at st. Johns Schoolroom
on Tuesday night 4th Feby.-was performed
at the New Theatre Royal in London in the
year 1865, when the famous comedian
MIR. j. L. Toole, appeared in the leading
part.
1t is to be hoped, that the public of St.
Croix will in large numbers patronise this
attempt to introduce an old English come
dy among us.
The scenery has been specially imported
from England for the occasion. The cos
tunes are copied from those Of the Mid
Victorian period.
The proceeds of the entertainment will
be devoted to the funds of St. Johns
Church, Christiansted
DR. Longfeld Smith, who plays the leading
part of Mr.. jeremiah Fluke, is ably assisted
by Messrs. Wultf-Hansen, Meyer 4 Bailey,

London, Jan. 25th-Sir Edward Grey aud
Mr.. Lloyd George yesterday received a
Suffragette delegation. One spokeswoman
warned them that all previous outrages were
pinpricks, compared with their intentions
after further disappointments. Mr.. Lloyd
George answered that he favoured suffrage
for women who were householders and
household wives, but he pledged the Gov
ernment's support Of the action of the House
of Commons, and declared that the Reports
regarding designations under certain condi-
ditions were untrue. He promised to do
his best III support Of the elision of the word
'male'' and stated that his insurance expert
ence had convinced HIM that among the
grossest injustices is the exclusion of wo
men from the direction of matters con
corning them, Sir Edward Grey gave SINH
lar assurances, bnt with the caution that the
opposition was formidable and would be re-
inforced by outrages.
In the House Of Commons Mr.. Asquith in
moving time limitations for the debate on
the suffrage, sad kat in the opinion of the
Government it leaves action to the free
Judgment of the House Of Commons. The
House 50 divided on Mr.. Bonar Laws
amendment, which was rejected by 259 votes
to 1871.
The Speaker, answering Mr.. Bonar Law.
said the Bill as introduced affected only the
male suffrage, and that the adoption of the
amendments regarding female suffrage would
so alter the Bill, but precedents would re-
quire its introduction as q new measure.
Mr.. Lloyd George said the Bill had been
draugbted in a form enabling the female
amendments to be inserted, and that there
was no precedent for the Speakers ruling
that the Bill was out of order. Speakers,
he sail, had suggested that bills should be
withdrawn, and such suggestions had some
times been accepted.
The suffragettes nre frantic, and precnu-
lions against oulrages have been redoubled.
The Daily Chronicle advises the Govern
ment to drop the Bill, giving immediate
facilities for bills embodying the respective
amendments.

Under the bill, peers for the first
time would be entitled to vote but not

certain, that If the Commons passed
the bill the Lords would refuse to ac-

that, as in the oase of the home rule
bill, three Houses OF Commons would
have to enact the measure before it
became a law under the veto act.

THE AWKWARD CHILD

The robust. tall, awkward child, who
promises to be a fine looking wom-
am but who in her early teens Is the
despair of many mothers, would look
ridiculous in a Kate Greenaway frock,
whereas she would forget her awk-
wardness in a well cut Russian b1ous-
es, where the low waist line would
detract from her height. Just as there
are women who always look well in
rem who have a certain style in the
simplest of costumes and who become
wholly commonplace in appearance
the minute they are dressed UP in
fri1ls and fur-be1ows 1t is far bet
ter to dress a girl of this type In al
plain little frock of soft wooden or
cashmere, if WASH material is not
desired, than in g, frock decorated with
lace and embroidery, with ruffles and
shirrings. On the other hand, there
are children who are fairly irresistible
