I d!:;. ENGLAND AND THE BOERS. Ingland is making largo prepara tion*. Her affections seem now to be rauterad In Africa. The telegram of luiyeror William, to the I’reside.it of tH* Honth African Republic, still ^tukl**. (rermTiiy is not satisfied with England's stand, and England loofc* i>4>ou (iermany as an intruder. Roothern Africa is developing ra[)- \*)f. especially since the rich gold vein* havi* been brought to view, •uropoau nations have not been slow to •olouise the dark continent, as ex plorer* opened the way. It is not ■arptfising therefore that Interests el*»h lu this formative state. Nor is It W he wondered at that England is ttaorting herself to maintain her iiower where she has so long exer- vhK'i it. Hngland however is cautious, and her Increased naval force, and her concentration of troops may be de fensive merely. The boors are in the way of England's progress, and at the gaiao time they seem to be the peculiar petu of Germany. When c&UArou quarrel, their mamas genei- ally come to their rescue. Germany miahos Hnglnnd to stand aloof and let the children settle their own differ ence#. t. THE NORTH ROLE. Ua* Dr. .Yangon been there—to tlie 101145 looked for Xorth Role? Report * ho has and is now on his home ward Jonrney to he lionized. Man is iadofatigablo. Because anything is Atlicalt of accomplishment is suffi cient Incentive to make him put (Orth his latest and best effort. He Wlfthc* to delve in the unknown and bring Borncthing to the surface. Its le »aid that Dr. Nansen had long bcca preparing for his northern jour ney. Dy patient study of the arctic currents he mapped out his course, sud when everything was read} — boat scientifically built, and manned with the hardiest seaman—he fearlessly committed himself to the wdnAs and waves. Other arctic explorers who have proceeded Dr. Nansen do not credit the report ns true. But if true, what then? Will it be of any practical benefit to the world to know whether at Hie polo Is an open sea or a moun tain of ice? Many lives and vast treasures have boon spent in the search. If Dr. Nansen has stood on the northern extremity of the earth’s uxi* is it worth what it has cost? rapidly an 1, so t smoothly through both HouscG dr OoPlgWss and:became a law. The States have power to control the .rowing nuisance, but Comrrcfs niu.-t overlook \ lie territo ries and the District of Columbia. Who : ::ys wo are not making prog ress when the lottery and prize fight ing have been banished from our do main, and the mails have been purged of the great volume of the ob scene literature that formerly flowed throng’.', its channels. Men are prone to gratify their lower propensities. These are nat ural, but lead downward, and the young are gen rally the victims. They should he protected, even though it takes the strong arm of the government to he thrown around them. The weight of its heavy hand should l)e fell wherever and when ever the hydra-headed monster rears its head. REPRESENTATIVE TALBERT. Again Mr. Talbert is brought to bis feet in the 1 House uf Representa tives. He watches, as he should, the public treasury, and opposed the paying of a pension to the widow of a soldier after the widow had remar ried. This wo' thy act called down on his head and, through him, on Hni'.h C iioiina tin* wrath of the Ca nadian born representative of a wes tern state. In a very quiet way he was fciloncul by t'e n-pr.'sentntive from l-'ou.h Carolina who faced the t iu'iny from b> ginning to end of the lute war and never once saw the ro doubta'do Canadian. Mr. Talbert will never sit idly by and hear his state traduced, without resenting the attack. In this he lias the sympathy of all true-hearted South Carolinians. He deserves well of his state, and she will not fail still further to honor him for his services. PRESS OPINION. GEORGIA TO THE FRONT. Sooth Carolina cannot hold all the honors In Congress. Tillman in the Sennto and Talbert in the House h*vo been the observed of all observ er*. b»t they cannot keep the monop oly. Crisp and Turner from Georgia have diverted the tide for a season. It might have been expected that the ex-speaker would lead the final charge of the froc-silver # men, but who would have thought that Massa chusetts and New York would have been passed over by the sound money men and a representative from Geor gia selected to round up the argu ment. But the sequel showed that the Ways and Means committee knew what they were about when they pnt up Turner as their cham pion. Turner Is hard to put down. In every attack—and they were many-—he showed hhiioclf «quid'tu tW« emergency, and in the debate eamo off with colors flying at top I mast. The yellow metal still holds its own and Is gaining friends. PRIZE FIGHTING. This brutal sport has likely met Its death blow through'congrcasionul uc» tion. Seldom has a hill passed so The 3. S.

INth.— Nothing definbe lias been learned concerning the whereabouts of Reese and Lackey, the accused asus ins of Williams, although it is said Reese is hiding in the immediate vicinity. Lackey’s trunk was shipp'd from this place to some point in Georgia, b it he has probably not gotten if yit. The office at that, place bus has been unified to ho on the lookout. Reese lias retained Lawyer Harr, of York- vi I lo, so it is.said. Hart has the repu- taion of being the best criminal law yer in the count}'. Interest in this unfortunate affair is quietly dying out.

It has been supplied by tho adventures of a let ter which M. Henri Rochefort wrote to a member of his family shortly after hi.; escape from tho seclusion of Deeos, a good many years ago now. It is dated from on beard tho mail steamer which was, at i ho time of writing, convoying M. Rochefort from Australia to San Francisco. It relates tho bold breast stroke tho writer made for freedom through a kou of sharks to tho British bark, in which ho presently vanished from tho gaze of his custodians. And it gives a lively picture of M. Rochefort and the skipper, Captain Law, peram bulating the streets of Sydney, the cap tain pulling up at every corner to clasp his shipmate to his heart in true British sailor fashion. Further details are re served for viva voce communication, and no doubt were communicated. But tho letter never reached its in tended recipient, and she reads it now for tho first time in tho columns of a Paris newspaper. For M. Rochefort had reasons for not troubling tho French post al authorities with its delivery. Ho in trusted it to a follow passenger. Tho latter got to Paris, but ho didn’t feel well. Ho ho put tho letter in his library. Thou fio died, and liis library was sold. Part of that got into a book box on the t^uais. Out of that book box a purchaser picked a volume. In tho volume he found the letter. Now, with the writer’s consent, he has printed it.—Pall Mall Gazette. Best Family Medicine. Mr. C. N. Jones, Girard, Ala., says, May Pith, 1895: ”1 was suffering from Catarrh in tho head and was cured by King’s Royal Germotuer. We keep it all'the time, and be lieve that it is tho best family medi cine there is on tho market today.” Gcrmuturo suits all ages in the home. It is so pleasent to take that all like it. It is so harinlphs that the tonderest babe and most deMcate invalids are always safe in using it. It cures when all else fails. New package, large bottleM, 10H dozens, ♦I. For sale by W . B. Dupre. DWARFS IN THE PYRENEES. A New Theory to Acconnt For a Race of Little I’coplo In Spain. There has long dwelt in tho heart of tho Pyrenees on tho old Catalonian bor der of Spain a curious race of dwarfs, supposed by some to bo of Tartar origin. A writer in a recent issue of Cosmos describes them and advances a theory of their origin in cousunauco with modern anthropology. They inhabit tho valley of tho Ribas in tho northwestern part of tho Span ish province now called Gerona. They never exceed 51 inches in height, and have short, ill formed legs, great bel lies, small eyes, Hat noses and pale, un wholesome complexions. They are usu ally stupid, often to tbo verge of idiocy, Highest of all in Leavening Power.— I, 1 ' .c&U.S.Gov’t Report "4 <5 ■A.y (T* rtf'' .'•j'iD ■Jw r/-~E .

Tho mountains rise about tho town to a height of 6,000 to 8,000 feet, and command an amazingly beautiful panorama of mountain, plain and river, with Spanish cities visible upon the one side and French upon tho other.

It is said that formal marriage in al most unknown among thorn. Tho w om en in some instances aro employed iu tho village of Ribas as nurses for chil dren, and an such aro found tender and faithful. Before communication through out tho region was an easy as it in now it wan thought lucky to have one of these dwarfs in a family, and the dwarfs were hired out and oven sold to bo used in beggary in neighboring cities. There aro somewhat similar dwarfs in other valleys of the Pyrenees, hut tho number is decreasing, and those of tho Ribas valley are reduced to a few individuals. The writer of The Cosmos article re jects the theory of a Chinese origin for tho dwarfs, and believes that they aro merely the degenerate descendants of tho ordinary natives, ill nourished for generations upon a diet of potatoes and black bread. Tho fact that with im proved means of communication the dwarfs aro decreasing helps to confirm tho writer’s theory, and ho behoves that with proper nourishment and decent shelter their descendants would gradu ally return to the normal type. Mean while tho neighbors of tho dwarfs look upon them with a curious mixturo of feelings. The fact that tho dwarfs driuk much at a particular mineral spring has given rise to a superstition that who ever drinks of it will become deformed, and tbo normal natives aro horrified to gco visitors experimenting with the dreaded waters. There is reason to be lieve that tho waters of tiio spring aro beneficial to the i;iomach:i of well nour ish d persons, but injurious to these who aro accustomed to an unwholesome diet, and it is entirely possible that tho ill fed dwarfs havo been injured by __ of girl v, h ati: faction in the c i of a man who ha *>•. <. n the . . imagine, finds a peculiar oni '• • ; appear probat , . . of the W’jcntls prcducec ectilo will l- 3 i prove amenable totf* 1 treatment.
