CHURCHILL CANNOT nECOVEn.

tonight at thc dowager duchess oC Inrlbor

lying Iii , and was Informed by the doctor
,
that time present revival oC strength and I
Ilnrtal return of consclousncss could only
prove traasclent , and physicians would not bo
justfell In holding out thc smalest hope oC
rccovery. Lady flandoipli's unremiting
devotIon to her husband evokes time warmest .
admIration . She never leaves the sick room I
day or night , except to see members oC thc
family , nll has only been out doors for a
_ .q drive on one occasion since her return , nnd
; , then under orders from the doctor. Your
orreLJondcnt mentioned , last week that bad I
speculations In South Africa had Increased I
ChtmrhiIi's ' mental worry and _ mcceieratcd . his I
physlcnl breakdown. I have since learnel
that during his recent l.fnte tour , the In-
