How Bobby Achieved His End.

I when be came home from school, “haa Irony anything to do with tams” ~ “Nothing whatever, Bobby- Irony meaAis that we mean the apposite of what we say." ' Bobby thought a moment, and continued: “I don’t love you just a cent’s worth, mamma. Is that irony?” “l suppose so,” replied Ida mother, with a smile that she didn't attempt to repress. “Then,” said Bobby with an olr of triumph', “wasn’t it irony when you •aid the day before yesteniay that .you wouldn’t give me a quarter to buy a ticket to the circus to-day?” Whether It was or not, he went to the efßohs that Bazar.

Learning to Be Americans.

Within a few years the younger generation of Porto Rico will speak English. Already the extent of their vocabulary is surprising. And in this respect the street arabs, due to their personal contact with the American soldiers, are far in advance, of their compeers. The bootblack calls “Shiner’ as in the United States, and the newsboy is no less vociferous and persistent in crying in English the name of the daily he sells. “No good,” as a condemnatory expletive, has fairly been adopted into the Porto Rican Spanish, as has “all right,” with an opposite significance.—Leslie's Weekly.

Historical Tablets In Boscawen.N.H.

Though a town of only 1,700 inhabitants, Boscawen, N. H., has a full share of public spirit. A few days ago nine historical bronze tablets were set up within the town limits to mark the birthplaces of John A. Dix, William Pitt Fessenden, ex-Governor Currier, and Charles Sargent Coffin; the first law office and the residence occupied by Daniel Webster, and the sites of the old fort of Indian days, tbe first church, and the first pastor’s residence.

THE WAR WITH THE BOERS.

Fighting Still Continues, with No Important Besults. At this writing it 3s not apparent that any serious fighting has taken {dace in Natal between the Boers and British since the serious reverse experienced by the lather hetore Ladysmith. There is a dearth of news in London relative to the South African situation, but enough is known to beep up interest and create anxiety. Ladysmith is surrounded by the Beers in targe numbers and a force sufficiently strong has been sent sooth and has compelled the British evacuation of Colenso, the only town of importance between Ladysmith' and Durban, the chief port of Natal. This obviously improves' the Boer situation. It gives them the command of the Tugellh river, cuts off Ladysmith completely from communication with British headquarters at Pietermaritzburg, the capital of Natal, and {daces them, favorably for an attack upon any re-enforcement that Gen. finller may send north from Durban for the relief of Gen. White. Meantime at Kimberley and Mafeking, on the west side of the twin republics, the siege of these places is being prosecuted by the Boers. The inter are in greater numbers than it was once thought they could muster and England may find it necessary to send even more than one army corps to South Africa. I Friday night Capt. Fitz-Clarence and Lieut. Swinburn, with D squadron of the Proteetoijate regiment, made a magnificent bayonet charge upon the Boers’ entrenchment, driving them from their positions and bayoneting numbers of the Boers, who must have lost very heavily. The charge was most gallant and determined. The party could not hold the trenches and lost pix men killed, two prisoners and nine wounded in their retirement. A heliographic message from Ladysmith, received at Estcourt, states that the bombardment of that place continues, but thus far no harm had been done. The message adds that there is plenty of food, and all are well. The Boers are doing all the damage possible to the railroad south of Colenso, and are gathering in large numbers south of Ladysmith, the motive of these movements evidently being to hamper the British as much as they can in their efforts to relieve White. A dispatch from Kimberley says that the Loers are apparently shelling the town at the extreme range of their guns. Their fire has been futile.

BOOM IN CHOCTAW COURTING.

Mad Bush for Indian Bride* Made by Avaricious White*. Love-making of a fast order is now going on in the Choctaw nation, Indian Territory. About 5,000 white men have already won Choctaw bride# and the laud and money that accompany them. The 'cause of the rush is the recent announcement of the Dawes commission that after ;the first of the month persons not Choctaws by blood - will not be enrolled up the citizenship list. This means no white men who marry Choctaw women Will be allowed to share in lands and money of the Choctaw tribe. Hence quick love-making on part of civilised man. The Choctaw girls are rathW pretty and some are highly educated. Those who are not full bloods refuse to marry

TYPE OF CHOCTAW MAIDEN.

Indians, hence there is a great demand for whites. Choctaw girls marry at the age of 17. Because of their 550 acres of land (equal amount being given to their husbands) no trouble is experienced in #nding a suitable companion. These girls are of a kind and loving disposition, and are said by the white men who have tried to make excellent wives.

WAR NEWS IN BRIEF.

There arc no Boers nearer Esteourt than Colenso. A report declares that the Boers are marching into Zuluiand. Foreign interference, is now regarded as out of the question. • _ Gen. Butler did not expect to begin the campaign before Christmas. f - * ' > A complete wireless telegraphic apparatus has been seized on a vessel at Cape "Town. St. Petersburg reports cite the Uuaalans as marching toward the Afghan frontier. The troops arrived ot Cape Town now bring the total number thus far landed up to 120,000. The strict censorship of the British authorities prevents authentic reports in many instances. < The Portuguese Government has determined not to send troops to Delagoa bay before the end of December. Both Britons and Boers are accused of inhumanity, but these stories are not to be accepted without consideration of the source. ■ i i It is reported that the Belgian Government has warned Dr. Loyds, whose headquarters is at Brussels, that Belgium is a neutral country. The Basutos have expressed their sympathy for the British by quitting work on the Boers* fnrrns, and as a result the crops arc rotting. Durban advices report that a big force of the Boers was driven back from Ladysmith and that they suffered severely. Capt. Lambton’s arrival from Durban with 500 men and heavy gnus waa extremely fortunate for the British. The British have abandoned AHwalnorth, an important town on the Orange Free State border, and the Boers are now occupying the place. The humanity displayed by Jouhert ■Tid commented on by Gen. White has created a favorable impression, and will mitigate in favor of clemency If England goaqnera.

The Farm Beats the Mortgage.

There is s story from Buffalo County going the rounds that illustrates the resources of a Nebraska rarm: A farmer up there from Missouri got discouraged because he didn’t get rich the first year, and, as there was a mortgage of S7OO on his farm, was about ready to jump the whole business, but determined to make one more effort and sowed eighty acres in wheat. It happened to be a poor year for wheat and the stand was not very good. Concluding that k wasn’t worth harvesting he pulled up his stakes and moseyed back to Missouri, leaving the farm to fight the mortgage all by itself. The farm was equal to the occasion. The wheat ripened, fell down and deposited the seed in the soil again. Next spring the wheat began to grow lustily. Some of the neighbors were honest enough to write about it down to the fugitive ia Missouri, and he got interested enough to come back and take a look. Then he stopped and harvested his voluntary crop. He sold it for enough to pay off the mortgage and the rest of his debts and bad a tidy little surplus over, with which he moved bis family back and now declares there is no State like Nebraska. —Lincoln (Neb.) Journal.

Killed by Kindness.

A genuine ease of killing by kindness has taken place in Shoreditch. Sarah Hack, a child about 5 years old, daughter of a laborer, was exceedingly popular in the locality, and continually received gifts of nuts and sweets. After eating a hearty meal of stewed eels, meat pie, and kippers, she was rewarded with a quantity of monkey nuts and plums; and this diet brought on indigestion, from which she expired.— London Telegraph.
