The reopening1 of Robinson's bank In
I'retoria is duo to the good offices of,
Mr. Hay. United States heeretary of
htate. Mr. Choato and Adelbrt Hay,
trie American consul nt the Transvaal
capital. When President Kruger cloteil
the bank he tried to commandeer the
Pritish staff, nnd on their refusal to
comply he threatened them with expul
sion. Adelbert Hay sent the protest
of the manager of the bank to Lord
Salisbury through. -Mr. C'hoate, with
the result that Mr. Kruger liberated
the bank's stair" and restored the com
mandeered gold.
President Kruger has Kent a fervid
religious appeal, with orders that it
should be read by all the ollicers to the
burghers, urging them to stand fast
and strive in the name of the Lord, for
unless they had faith in Him cowardice
would set in and their position would
be hopeless the moment they turned
their backs on the enemy. Their past
victories, he declared, shows that the
Lord was on their side. The president
beseeched the burghers not to bring
destruction on their progeny.
Ladymith has been relieved and all
England is jubilant. After being shut
up at Ladysmith for UM days (Jen. Sir
Jeo. White and his forces were re
lieved on the night of Feb. When
relieved the garrison were subsisting
on half a pound of meal a man per day
with occasional meat rations of horses
or mules. The relieved men will re
quire quite a little nursing before they
are lit for field service, as they were
greatly reduced in strength during
their long siege of fasting.
Pi re destroyed the famous cannon
factory at Le C'reusot, Prance, on the
-'Nth. whence the lloers obtained their
powerful "Long Toms." Two enorm
ous buildings containing gun material
and electrical stores, including a num
ber of artillery models, were destroyed.
The losses are estimated at between
800,000 and 1.000,000 francs. A large
number of workmen have been thrown
out of employment.
The Transvaal agency at Pussels,
Eng., confirms the statement that
President Kruger is read- to conclude
peace with (ireat Pritain on the basis
of the independence of the two repub
lics and that otherwise the struggle
w ill continue to the bitter end. The
agency believes that the Afrikander
clement in Cape Colony and Natal will
rebel rather than allow annexation.
Gen. J Srabant's colonial division, af
ter a night's march, on the morning of
the 4th attacked the l'.oers in a strong
position at La Pusehagne's Nek, on the
road from Dordrecht to Jamestown.
The engagement proceeded with great
vigor and the Moors gradually retired
before the Hritish shell fire, from three
positions. The Hritish loss was six
killed and 18 wounded.
The Pritish army estimates, issued
on the 1st show a total expenditure of
i:(51.4'.i'.JOO, an increase over last year
of iMO.S.sV-'M. The total number of
ollicers and men is placed at 430,000, an
increase over last year of 'Jb",147.
(ion. Cronje on behalf of his party.
and Commandant Wollmarans and
4,000 other prisoners, has returned
thanks to lien. Roberts for his kind
ness and consideration since they were
taken prisoners.
Prom a Pritish source it is estimated
that the lloers cannot place more than
4 ).O00 men to oppose Lord Roberts, ex
cept by a complete abandonment of
Natal.
According to a Pritish report Gen.
.Toubert is now assmbing Ao.UOO men
at Weinberg, TO miles northeast of
Pl )cmfonteiii.
The. Poer casualties at Colenso dur
ing the week ending Feb. 25 are re
ported to bo 31 men killed and 150
wounded.
When Gen. Cronje and his family
reach Cape Town they will be placed
on board a Pritish llagship.
A fierce lire broke out at midnight in
a tenement in New York on the 28th,
nnd the police and firemen made many
thrilling rescues. After the fury of
the flames bad been spent the bodies
of three children were found. A doen
or more people were rescind in a semi
conscious or unconscious condition.

'The blessings of Episcopal Lent
from a Presbyterian minister's stand
point Is the theme of this sermon. The
histories of hermits, ascetics, penances,
macerations, sackcloth and ashes, pil
grimages, monasteries, juggernauts,
human sacrifices and medicine men
prove that days of fasting and suppli
cation have been among the sacred cus
toms of all nations. St. Agnes day,
Candlemas day, St. Plaze day, Valen
tine's day, Hoke day, St. Patrick's day,
St. George's day, Shrove Tuesday.

Elizabeth, Barnabas. Simon. Jude days,
Holy Rood day, Martimas day, Cor-
pus Christ! day are only a few of the j
many we could name in the gleaming
constellations of past holy days, as j
well as holidays.
"The present close communion of the !
Covenanters dates back to the time of
Scottish bigotries, when Lord Clavcr- I
house, like Paul, 'persecuted them even '
unto strange cities.' As it meant lifo j
or death if an enemy discerned the j
worshipers, they had their tokens or
little pieces of leaden metal about the
size of an English penny. When these
Covenanters came to the door where
the communion was to be held they
presented these tokens, which were the
same as a soldier's countersign. S3
the modern custom of eating hot cross
buns on Good Friday finds its origin j
in heathen times when the devotees
would bring the sacred bread to lay
upon the altars. Down to the reign of
Henry VIII. the Catholic church, in or
der to celebrate the triumphant entry
of Palm Sunday, made a wooden ass.
nnd astride this ass they placed the
wooden figure of Jesus Christ, and the
people would drag it through the
streets before which the worshipers
bowed in holy rapture. As was quaint
ly expressed in the ancient poem:
"A wooden ass they have nnd Image
great that on him ride3.
But underneath the ass's feet a table
broad there slides.
Being borne on wheels which ready
drest and all things mccte there
fore. The asse is brough abroad and set be
fore the churche's door.
l"c:!t of the Jew.
"Not only did the Jcwa have the
feast of the Passover, the feast of the
Tabernacles, the feast of the Pentecost,
the feast of the New Moons, the feast
of Charity, the feast of dedication, the
feast of trumpets, the feast of the Sab
bath, for these feasts were only an
other name for fast, but In Zechariah
we read, "The fast of the fourth month
and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of
the seventh, and the fast of the tenth
shall be to the house of Judah Joy and
gladness and cheerful fasts.' After the
ascension, when they were all with one
accord in one place, the little band ot
120 disorganized followers cf Jesii3
Christ gathered together In an upper
chamber In Jerusalem, and there they
fasted and prayed day after day until
at last the Holy Ghost came in the
sound of a mighty rushiii? wind and it
filled all the house wiicrc they were sit
ting, and there appeared unto them
cloven tongues of fire and It sat upon
the heads of each.
"The 6acrtdness of the Lenten sen
son is the natural outgrowth cf heath
en as well as Christian worship.
Though we hold not allegiance to any
bishop, nor reverence the ia of apos
tolic succession, and use no; the Lit
urgy, let us gather next Ash Wednes
day in the different parishes under the
shadow of the cross, and frr forty days
bow the knee In worship, eide by eida
with those who are merely sheep of
another fold, of whom Jesus Christ U
the same 6hepherd.
"In the first place the text honors
the Episcopalian Lenten season be
cause it is a protest against social dis
sipations. In order to ditsipate seme
people believe one has to be a drunkard
like Edgar Allan Poo, a llbertino like
Lord Byron, or an opium fiend like
Thomas do Qulncey, who on account
of his physical infirmities made that
marvelous mind so weird and unbal
anced that in dreams he wandered
among the clouds. The stars were the
shining knobs which opened the dark
doors of the night. In the strange pal
aces of vision which fatal narcotics
built, he heard his little baby playmate,
the loving sister who died in childhood,
6ing the songs of the nursery. As an
artist he painted hia pictures, and a3
a magician waved his wand until vast
processions passed along In mournful
pomp, friezes of never-ending stories,
that to my mind were as sad and sol
emn as If they were stories drawn from
times before Oedipus or rrlam, before
Tyre, before Memphis. And at the
same time a change took place in my
dreams; a theater sccr.irvl suddenly
opened and lighted within my brain,
which presented nightly spectacles cf
more visions than earthly splendors.
A Morm Katie nt I. int.
"Pat at last in Thomas de Qulncey's
visions the angels of heaven and the
sweet Incense of the fields and the
bright eyes of hope were driven away
by the Satanic influences which sent
him flying and shrieking through
paco. He waa a maniac shivering in
the clutches of despair. Trfc cemeteries
were turned into mobs of ehatterin?

' ove;1 caea wcre stretching forth their
protesting arms across the dark
chasms of horrors Into which he must
fall and thoy could not change the
eternity of his woe.
"But there are 500 different ways of
read: 'And God said. Let there be
light, and there was light. And God
saw the light that it was good, and
God divided the light from tho dark
ness. And God called the light day
and the darkness he called night.'
Too Much Lie lit.
"In other words, those verses mean
this: In the beginning God ignited for
self-murder besides those found along
the poisonous highways of opium,
liquor and moral weakness. Tho de
spised worm destroys the monster
oak as well as the woodman's ax. The
little seed or the frozen stream cracks
the solid rock as well as the angry
dynamite. The flowing waters of Ni
agara river dissolve the mountains.
"In the first chapter of Genesis we
this planet two suns. The moon Is
nothing but a burnt-out sun. But aftr
the creation God felt too much light
would destroy the human race, so he
practically said: 'My children must
have a time to sleep. The flowers close
their petals in slumber. The trees be
come torpid in a winter nap to give
I forth the spring buds. Even tho ma
j chincry must have a rest or it will soon
I wear out. The angelus bell without
i quiet will cease to chime, so, in order
I to have man nnd woman sleep. I will
' show them my will. For ten hours at
j least I will envelop the earth in total
' darkness.' Like our grandmothers
with a cand!e-snuflcr, God reached
down and put out the light of that
sun which we call the moon. And this
Is the reason wo ought to go to bed
with the chickens and answer early to
the morning call of tho crowing cock.
"In the ne::t place, the text honors
the Lenten season because it is a pro
test against human perfection. If
there were any people on earth who
by physical contact were fitted for the
receiving of the Holy Spirit cn account
of their natural conditions, they were
the little baud cf 12) Christians, com
posed of Peter, Janes, John, Martha.
Lazarus, Mary, the mother of Christ,
and Mary Magdalene, who had the
seven devils, and the rest of the apos
tles who sat with Christ at the last
supper. They ato of his body and drank
cf his blood. Many of them knew
Jesus when he was in Galilee and made
the wine at the wedding of Cana. They
saw him crucified. They saw the tomb
which was rifled. They saw him and
talked to him and touched him when
he was resurrected. Paul said: 'After
that he was seen cf above 500 brethren
at once, of whom the greater part re
mains unto this pc-iiteccst, but some
are fallen asleep.'
ltrhw'd the AoMilon.
"They saw Jesus' ascension, when he
mounted higher and higher, until tho
trees were under his feet; higher and
higher, until his hair was moistened
by the halo of clouds, as the gardens
are besweated by the morning mists;
higher and higher, until other wor!d3
crowded around him in love; higher
and higher, until his white, flowing
garments became as the wings of a
dove; higher and higher, until earth
itself to him must have dwindled into
a star. Yet these disciples, before the
Holy Spirit came, had to gather in one
place, with one accord, for supplica
tion and prayer. Cannot you and I
train our eyes to See the tongues of
fire; Etrain our ears to hear the spirit
winds moving among the trees;, reach
forth our hards for the gospel heart-
clasp, and lift our lips for the kiss of
divine love
"One day among the arctic Icebergs
a whaling ship sighted a strange craft.
Its ropes were ropes of ice. Its sails
and hull and quarter deck were all cov
ered with ice. Its rudder chains cou'd
net move, for they were In the grip of
omnipotent ice. When the commander
came near enough to this strange craft
he lifted the trumpet and called, 'Ship
ahoy, ship ahoy. Whither brund; f;o:.i
what pert?' There was no answer. A
boat was lowered. Wh:n the rcocuin
party climbed over the bulwarks they
found the captain frozen dead in the
cabin; the sailors frozen dead in the
bunks; the cock frozen dead in the
kitchen; the wheelman frozen dead at
the wheel. For thirteen long years
that ship had floated helplessly about,
the sport of every current, the play
thing cf every wind, nnd tho only fu
neral dirge was sounded by storm
demons, shrieking and hissing In tho
rigging.
"So every man at 40 or CO years of
age is a derelict, a divinely pUted hu
man craft, drifting around with a full
cargo of decayed opportunities, with
his corpses of misapplied influences.
We must first throw overboard our
dead selves before we eia let Jcsua
Christ step upon the decks.
Art too lliat Com mind Contempt.
"By our actions we try to push our
selves down to the lowest depths of
God's great ocean of ccntempt. This
was not tha figure of tha pcntccostal
gathering. Methinks wo see them.
There Is Mary, the Mother, weak and
old, with her eyes red from weeping.
There is Peter, repulsive Peter, one
moment all faith, next all discourage

was baptized at her altars. As a little
child I went to sleep in her pews. As
a boy I found my Christ at her mercy

my bride. As a young minister there
I received tho holy touch of ordination.
When I lay me down to sleep the last
6leep at her pulpit I want to have
spoken over me the same words which
I have said, at the same place where I
broko the bread of the holy com
munion. But because a minister love3
his wife, that is no reason he cannot
reverence his sister. At the holy altar
of the Episcopalian chancel I have
bowed and wept. I have reverently re
peated the prayer: 'From all blindness
of heart, from pride, vain-glory, and
hypocrisy; from every hatred, malice,
p.nd all uncharitableness, good Lord,

"And I now plead with you. my Pres

call of Episcopalian Lent and go to tho

ORIGIN OF 'HOW.'
l lrst re! Iy tlie IndUm tin the VOatcrn
l'lil.n.
They were all sitting around a table
in the Gibson House cafe. Farny and
a few other congenial spirits. Some
one ordered a drink, nnd when it came
nnd every one was about to raise hi3
glass Farny said: "How?" It is an
expression that is heard in a cafe hun
dreds of times a day, and yt few peo
ple kuow its origin. Seated In the
crowd at the table In the Gibson House
was an army oHlcer, and someone said:
"Where in the world did this expres
sion 'how come from?" Then the
army officer laughed and said: "Draw
close, my children, and I will tell you."
And he did. "How" is an expression
used by every man when he drinks, but
It had its beginning in a joke. Years
ngo. when the army wa3 engaged In
driving the red man out farther and
farther toward the setting sun, the
officers had many experiences with the
Indians. Many pow-wows and meet
ings were held, and at those assembled
many Indians who could speak but a
few words of English. Army officers
are proverbially hospitable, and at
these pow-wows they always produced
a bottle and asked the chiefs to drink.
In those days the officers said to the
chiefs: "I drink to your good health."
The chiefs, who knew but a few words
of English, always replied "How." The
thing started as a Joke, but every army
officer fell into the habit of saying
"How," and now it 13 recognized as the
proper thing to say when drinking,
particularly when doing so with tho
sons of Mars. Cincinnati Enquirer.
Wine from Ap;le.
Science ha3 lately made it possible to
obtain pood wine for the table, which
has always been devotod to sparkling
cider, says an exchange. Experts have
been deceived In sherry, madeira and
- sauterne, which came from apple Juico
instead of grapes. Juice from the ap
ple is fermented with years of differ
ent kind? brought from the grape
growirg districts of Europe to thi3
country. For instance the flavor of
sherry is not due to the grapo, but to
the Infinitesimal fungus germs that
cause its fermentation. The American
crnipanie3 import these g?rms from
j the district in Spain where they flour
I ish, inoculate the apple Juice an l ob
i tain a fine wine. These yeasts are ob
j tr.ined from tho sediment In the vat3
i cf Europe. They are easily propagated
j and tho only difficulty i3 to separate
j the different kind3. As the quality of
j th-2 wine depends on these fungi, wine
' ciaker3 have usually left to chance tho
kind of w::i? t'icy piwiuce, depending
on the org-r '-".i? which float in the air
r.nd attach t.e:.:-:c ivc.i to tho gr ipes.
The yeasts are sold bottlad cud are

A Vindictive Woman.
An actor who is thoroughly con
vinced of the vindlctivenes3 of women
relate. thii anecdote in support of his
opinion: "I had a woman enemy once.
She wa.3 leading woman in the com
pany when I was leading man. Ou the
stage we were lovers. Off the stag3
we didn't even speak when we met.
I had a sceno with her in which I ha. I
to clasp her in my arms, while her
head sunk on my breast. I wore a
frock coat nnd a beautiful light satin
scarf. And what did that woman do?
She used to make up with grease paint,
snd when her head sunk on my breast
she used to rub her cheek on my tie,
and well, a light satin tie with red
and grease paint on it Isn't a thing of
beauty. I had to buy a new tie for
every performance. I stood It flvs
nights, and then another woman told
me what to do. I filled my scirf with
pins, polnt3 out, and when mjr lady
rubbed her damask cheek against my
breast that night sho looked like a
war map."
