WORSE SHAPE THAN BEFORE General White's Victory Offers Ko Re lief to Lady ami th. ' A London, Jan. 9 dispatch says; Gen eral White still holds out, , or did so sixty hours ago when the Boers,' ousted from their foothold Inside the works, suspended their assault at ' nightfall. England has taken, heart. The situa tion, however, is worse. The belea guered force must have expended large amounts of ammunition, which c&nnot be replenished and must have lost a number of officers and men,' which is counterbalanced, so far as the garrison is concerned, by the greater loss of tha Boers. General White still needs re lief, and , the difficulties ccnf rontrag General Buller are as great , as bef o re. The former's unadorned sentences, as read and re-read, suggest eloquent ly the peril in which the town was for fourteen hours, and how barely able his 9,000 men were to keep from being pvercoineT ' The chief concern for General White is in respect of ammunition. SLxty eight days ago, at the beginning of the siege, his small-arm ammunition . was vaguely described as "plenty." His artillery then had 300 rounds per gun.' Some of ,the batteries have been in action frequently since then-, and all were probably engaged last Saturday. His stock of shells, consequently, muf.t ,be low, and this will make, it difficult for General. White to co-operate in a movennent by General Buller.

Appleby, for several years the leading physician at Bristow, Butler county, Iowa, last evening,in a fit of insanity, killed a ten-months'-old child of Henry Wearly of this place while making1 an examination of it in Dr. Hobson's office. The parents had brought the child to Dr. Hobson's office to be treated for some trifling ailment, and before he had time to at tend to it was called out. Dr. Appleby, who was visiting' Dr. Hobson, was in the office, and he sug gested to the parents that Dr. Appleby should make the necessary examina tion, which, as soon as Dr. Hobson had left the office, he proceeded -to do. He took the child in his arms and handled it so roughly that the parents protest ed, bit to no avail. Suddenly he put his thumbs under its chin and with his fingers on top of its head crushed its face in so that blood - gushed out of its nose and mouth. Then jumjong up he seized the child by one foot and began swinging it around his head, re sisting all efforts of the terror-stricken parents to stop him, and it was not until help was gotten that the child was taken , from him. It was quite dead, and when , Dr. Rich a physician whochad been called in, prepared a stimulant to administer to the child Dr. Appleby knocked the spoon tht floor, declared that God had taken the child. The insane commission was - imme diatelyconvened and at midnight Dr. Appleby was on his way to the hos pital for insane at Independence. Three or four hours after the occurrence he seemed comparatively rational and said he knew what he was doing when he killed the child, but could not help it. The cause of his insanity is supposed to be religious excitement, , he having lately been attending protracted meet ings and manifested great interest therein. . ' No More Secret Cutting. Seventy-five railway executive offi cials, representing over fifty railroad lines, mostly in the west and south west, met in New York to consider tariff matters at the monthly confer ence under the auspices of the inter state commerce commission. It was the most largely attended of any con ference held since the passage of the law. Action taken practically insures support of present rates by more than one-half the railway mileage of the .United States, at least until the next meeting, to be held in this city in "March. Evory railroad represented pledged observance of the interstate commerce law, as well as a publication of all interstate tariff rates, with a general agreement tl-at these rates would .be enforced and that there would be no secret cutting undjer pub lished rates. - Grand Island Faper Suspends. The Grand Island Republican, under .the management of Messrs. P. P. and N. Fodrea, has suspended, the busi ness apparently being a losing one. The Free Press, fusionist, announces that it has made atrangements to sup ply all the contracts made with the Rebublican, daily, and that it has ab sorbed the weekly issue. At present, jn order to hold the contracts, the populist paper is appearing in the name of the Grand Island Republican. The paper belongs jto S. P. Mobley. When the latter left for Manila he leased the same to Fodreas for one year, but they threw up the lease and made arrangements with the fusionist paper to fill their unexpired advertis ing and subscription contracts. ; Farmer Drops Dead. ' While loading hogs into a waggon, Henry Hall, residing1 four miles east of Bladen, dropped dead. Mr. Hall has been afflicted with heart trouble,which, however, was not thought to be of a serious nature. ' He was , a well-to-do and, highly respected farmer. .Ho leaves a wife and several children.

Adjutant General Karry hears oc casionally of a member of the First Nebraska volunteers who did not come home with his regiment from San Francisco and who wants the state to reimburse him for the railroad fare he paid. The state secured subscriptions and thus made up a purse to pay the fare of the entire regiment. A few members of the regiment , came home before it started and some came strag gling home aftermard. ' The soldiers as a rule did not make application to be carried free when the regiment moved, and for this reason they . were left out of the accounts. The accounts were closed and the remainder of the state's fund was returned to the sub scribers. , " Before the accounts were closed pro vision was made for the return of the soldiers who were unable to return with the regiment on account of wounds oi' sickness.

"I believe," said the old maid, medita "tiveiv. to the elderly lady, "I believe '. begin to see the hand of Providence in my being in this dull place instead of in that much more interesting place where I was last year. I knew there must be i some occult reason for my having made the change. I believe I was m need of spiritual discipline. I know I'm getting it ergo, I must have needed it." The elderly lady was a picture of pa tient inquiry, and the old maid went on. "Did you hear what that sallow young Episcopal minister said to me at the dinner table? No? Well, I call you to witness my unwonted meekness of spirit on this Sabbath afternoon. The parson heard me tell some of the other board ers that I had spent the forenoon on my wheel and hadn't had time to go to church. He didn.t bristle up at that, but when he heard me speak of my pas tor with a femenine pronoun he turned and actually congratulated me on not having gone to church." v "I made up my mind that I didn't un derstand the' insinuation and that he would have to put himself on record in more unequivocal terms. By a series of peremptory questions he was led to state that the Salvation Army and the Uni tarians seemed to have more use for women than anybody else, modestly con cluding that he had always had a pro found respect for St. Paul's opinion as to the propriety of women's keeping keeping silence in the churches. Only think of having that old skeleton dragged out while one is eating Sunday dinner and is at peace with all the world.- Why! that superstition has almost as many lives as Bryan and free, silver. Every time any sane, fair-minded person meets it it is buried, and only comes to light when some old dry-as-dust has the bad taste to exhume it." . "What did I do?- I'm coming to that There's where the -spiritual discipline comes in.. ' I didn't turn and rend him. I didn't question the profundity of his respect for his old opinions which he called Saint Paul's. I didn't even sug gest that if I could see anything at all in the idea it would be well . if most of the men-who break the silence in the pulpit should cease the common super stitious twaddle we hear so much of and include themselves in Saint Paul's in junction. I could have shown the rest of the boarders a good time and made things almost as entertaining as a Lin coin school board meeting, but I didn't. I could feel the chip on my shoulder just wiggling with excitement. Now, observe what discipline is doing for my proud spirit. I calmly reached for an other piece of celery and in a dispassion ate manner remarked that while we had no authentic evidence of Saint Paul's ever having said any such thing, he made the greatest mistake of his life if he said it, and I modestly added . that the elimination of women from Ihe churches would.' make things rather lonesome for the ministers.

There is plenty of law to prevent thte trespassing, and it ought to be enforced. There is no greater nuisance1 than to have a lot of dudes and dog3 running over a man's farm. These people not only trespass but they are often very in- i solent. The way to get rid of them is to swear out a warrant and have them ar rested.
