REPORTS OF THE DISTRESS HAVE
NOT BEEN EXAGGERATED.

aerlweN Awful Scenes of Buttering.
Louis Ifrloppoh, of New York, who
has been hi India. visiting the faminee
atriolren districts and inspecting the
Work of relief, has jolts returned, He
says that the reports that have reach-
ed this oountry of the distress of mil -
hone of inhabitants Of India have not
been exaggerated, •and that while
large sums of money and quantities of
grain have •been contributed there is
much yet tobei done, to prevent many
thousands from starving.
Dr, Klopsoh made two trips into
the famine districts, going first five
hundreds tallies into the, interior. from
Bombay, and then an equal- distance
north, covering'more than two thou
Rand miles. Speaking of the result of
his observations and inquiries, Dr,
ISlopscli said:
INDIA A CHARNEL HOUSE.
"One-half of India to -day Is a great
obarmnl-house, in which countless
• thousands have already perished of
cholera, plague, dysentery and starve-
tion, and as many more are doomed
to a like fate. Twenty thousand new
eases of cholera weekly, with seventy-
five per cent, mortality, representing
fifteen thousand deaths every seven
days; plague on . every hand, dysen-
tery mowing down its victims right
and left, and' starvation staring mil-
lions in the face, reaping a harvest
unprecedented, sums up the horrible
story.
"On the day of our arrival in Bom-
baynth'e streets were literally crowded
with walking skeletons. Every step
of the way we were, besieged by men,
women and children in the last stage
of destitution, piteously begging for
mite that they might eat and live.
They held out their hands with a be-
seeching look, hoping that we might
drop a coin that would purchase at
least enough food to satisfy their hun-
ger just for ant hour.
"Gaunt men, emaciated women with
bosoms wasted with nursing diminu-
tive, hollow-eyed, sickly babies; chil-
dren with legs and arms like clothes -
pine and every rib plainly visible, all
ran after us, completely surrounding
the carriage and entreating us every
etep of the way.
"Houseless and homeless, these un-
fortunates sleep in the streets of Bom-
bay at night. They lie down just where
they happen to find themselves when
fatigue overtakes them. and it is no
exaggeration to say that I have see/
as many as 500 sleep on the sidewalk
of a single block.
DYING. UNDER BLAZING SUN.
"One experience which stands out
clearly in my mind is our visit in'Ab-
medabad, On the shadeless plaza be-
fore the gate were nearly 250 bundles
of rags containing as many human be-

It is like building a dweilingi•'h0uss—it

purpose, Jibe simplest houses are the
best. If the liquse is raised so that it
will bo two or throe feet off the

it should be closed under the floor on
three sides, the hens td lay, and roost

it gives two hundred hens to the acre,
But the tproper way is to have two

them from ono yard to the other,
which permits of spading the yards
and groavling green food in the one

THE TRAGEDY OF A POCKET.
---
THE COW IN SUMMER.
Sino° the .year one, luxuriant pas-
ture has been the ideal cow food for
making fine milk and butter. Even
this, however must be taken with a
qualification. The Dow tells ns that
to her taste the moderately short grass
of the pestture is better.' for her use
than the long, rank grass that grows
from bar droppings, for nothing but
semi -starvation will make her eat
that rank growth. This fact sug-
gests that the best milk cannot be
made from grass grown on ground
.that has been artificially made too
rich. The critical dairyman quickly
detects the strong, pungent odor of
milk made from cows feedingon rank
growths of red clover awl some other
grasses. Ile effect of fresh grass on
butter is always marked and some-
times radical. Under the new dis-
pensation of no artificial color the
affect of grass is a factor to be count-
ed with. Even under the old order
of things when the cows fed on red
plover, the Jersey gave such a deep
color to the butter that everyone
thought it artifically colored. How
are we to meet this difficulty 1 Per -
of destitution, misery, pain and help-
lessness made us so mentally."
Dr. lilopsoh describes his visits to
terruption in the work, and with a
minimum waste of time on the part
of mon and teams. The necessity for
first curing the food and tioten hand-
ling it again in storing is thus obviat-
ed. Such craps as are suitable for
being made into silage may be stored
in the silo under conditions of weather
quite adverse to the dry curing of the
same in the ordinary way.

di Experience of a films Who Tried to
Find a Key.
The man's wife had asked him to go
up -stairs and look in .the pocket of
her dress for a key she thought was
there, and being an a000mmadating
man he went at once.
Finally he re t:melt with empty,
hands, but with a peculiar look in his
eyes and a nervous trembling of ev-
ery muscle,
"I can't find any key in Lhe dress
of your pocket," be said with a painful
111103rt.
Why," she retorted sharply, "I

" I say I can't find any dress in the

ly.
His tone seemed to disturb her.

"I tell you I can't find any pocket

In a dazed kind of way.
She looked at him.
" What's the matter with you 8" she
asked, nervously.
"0 say," he said, speaking with
muoh effort, " that I can't find any
dress in the key oP your pocket."
She got up and went over to hum.
" 0 William," she groaned, "have
you been drinking?"
He looked at her,
" I tell you I can't find any pocket
in the dress of your key," he whisper-
ed. -
She began to shake him.
" What's the matter? What's the
matter?" she asked in alarm.
The shaking seemed to do him good,
and he rubbed his eyes as if he were
regaining consciousness.
"Wait a minute," hit said very slow-
ly. Wait a minute. I can't find any
dress in—no; 1 can't find any key in
the dress of—no, that's not it ; any

and a flood of light came into his lace.
" Confound it! 1 couldn't find any

Then he sat down and laughed hy-
sterically, and his wife, wondering
why in the name of goodness, men
made such a fuss over finding the

6iarunes—IIJd Sixteen Days is u Space

The Illustrated London News tells
au interesting story of the escape
from Pretoria and the subsequent ad-
ventures of Capt. F. N, Ire Mesurier;
of the Dublin Fusilliers, and Capt.
Haldane, of the Gordon iligbleoders.
From October, when Mr, Le Mesur-
ier was taken prisoners to last March
the thought of escape was never out
of his mind. The two friends realized
that their first idea—that of cutting
the main electric wires and escaping
past the sentries during the subse-
quent darkness and confusion—.would
almost certainly be doomed to fail-
ure. The way they finally resolved to
adopt was elaborate, physically pain-
ful, and full of danger, but on the
whole, it seemed to offer more chances
than any other.
While attempting to tunnel their
way out of the building where they
were confined, they had found that
under the room where they slept ex-
isted
sisted a certain spade, not three feet
high, but extending the full breadth
of the flooring above. It was in this
unutterably noisome spot, so damp
that after a few days mold covered
the boots of its inmates, that Capt.
Haldane and Mr. Le Mesurier spent
sixteen days. They had, of course,
provided themselves wilb a certain
amount of
FOOD AND WATER,
but neither was of good quality, for
both officers confirm the report that
the rations served out to the British
officer's were, considering the Man-
ner in which the Boer prisoners were
being treated within British lines, dis-
graceful in the extreme. One un-
expected complication which threat-
ened to ruin their plan was only dis-
covered by them after they bad been
some time in the narrow, self -inflict -
el prison namely, that the author;
ties, changing their minds, intended
to leave the prisoners in their press
cut quarters, instead of moving them,
as had been arranged, to a new part
of the town. Accordingly, during
the whole sixteen days spent by the
two officers in this terrible and dark
chamber of little ease, numbers of
prisoners, of course constantly in-
spected and visited by Boer authori-
ties, were in the room alone, this fact
making it extremely difficult for the
very few whom they had taken in
their confidence to band them clown
food and wester. Their only means of
oommuuicaticm with the living world
during the terrible fortnight was
through a tiny trop -door, made by
of the beds, under one and
the only touch of light glimmered in
through a ventilator placed under a
verandah. Alt least, when it appear-
ed that human endurance could endure
no more—during the greater part of
the sixteen days the two young melt/
had not been able to kneel or even
to sit on the hard damp ground, which
composed the only flooring of their
hiding apiece-tthey heard the wel-
come news that at last the room above

CLEARED OF ITS OCCUPANTS.
Early the next morning a sudden
tramping, followed by silence finally
broken by the coming and going of a.
crowd of townspeople, who roared
with laughter at the quaint carica-
tures of President Kruger and other
Boer worthies, due to the clever pen-
cil of one of ;the Britisb officers, prov-
ed that at last their chance might
come any night.
When they finally emerged through'
the trap-door which was their only ac-
cess to the outer world, they found
themselves quite' unable to stand.
Their legs, to quote the eloquent ex-
pression of one 01 them, "were as if
made of paper," and gave way under
them, end this although they had
spent a portion of ettoh day creeping
about on hands and knees in order to
keep up some form of exercise 1
They came up through the floor
about 7 o'alook p.m., and after a oon-
sidesable Interval, during which, gra.
dually, they found themselves reviv-
ing with the fresh air, and once more
regaining the partial use of their legs,
they made their way out of the desert-
ed building, and with infinite diffi-
culty surmounted the railings which
separated the ex -Deleon from one of
the principal Pretoria streets. Most

Britain's Experlellee of Dealing With
Huge Sabl;set l'eputations.
More than any other modern nation
Great Britain has bad experience of
dealing with huge subjeot populations
on an economical heels. In Egypt,
for instance, her "army of occupa-
tion" is only 5,000 men, and her civil -
lane of alp classes only all another
14,000 o•r so—barely 20,000 to balance,
administer, and control a native pop-
ulation of nearly ten millions, The
proportion works out at one Britisher
to five hundred natives. Compare the
Wrench occupation of Algeria, says an
English contemporary. Algeria has a
native population of throe and a half
millions policed by some 90,000 French
troops, supported by 250,000 French oiv-
Iliuus. Proportion, about one con-
queror to ten conquered. At the same
rate we should ,want in ;Egypt over
85,000 British troops and 700,000 Brit-
ish civilians. France polices her three
and a half million Algerian subjects
with 80,000 Frenchmen, we guard 290,-
000,000 Indians with loss than 75,000
British troops. Including civilians,
there is not in our Indian Empire more
than ono Britisher to 8,000 natives, If
the ruled in the East as France rules
in the South, we should have to dump
down on Indian soil three-quarters of
the population of those islands. These
instances serve to throw some light
on the terrific problem threatened by
the possible break-up of the Chinese
Empire. If China proved as difficult,
say, as Egypt, to rule, Europe would
need to fling into the country 700,000
men, military and civilian; if it turn-
ed out to be us easily managed as India
has been of late years, 150,000 men
would do, ,Our own share of either
number would not be sinal], for, in
Lha event of China going to pieces, we
have practically bespoken the valley
of the Yang -too river, which is said
to flow tor' over 8,000 miles through one
of the most densely -thronged ports of
the Celestial Empire.

of these unwelcome visitors necessi-

they squeezed tbem,selvea ander the

securely hidden among the packages,
they waited patiently till, with infi-
nite delight, they felt themselves mov-

When still on the wrong side of the

truck in which they were hidden was
suddenly detached from the train, and
left standing in the station. The
tarpaulin ;Vas roughly dragged off,
and a Boer, assisted by some Kaffirs,
began to search the truck. Presently
they went away. The two friends,
however, gave themselves up for lost,
for it seemed impossible that they had
escaped notice. For many long hours
they lay quaking, expecting every mo-
ment to fend themselves roughly jost-
