XEW YORK. March l.-Kin Ed
ward Is not expected to return to Lon
don before Monday or Tuesday, siys
the Tribune's correspondent. Hi will

ments In Buckingham Palace are com
pleted. The alterations wl'l be exten
sive, and while the gloomy exterior Is
beyond redemption, the Interior will
be made more comfortable and artistic.
The course of repairs and decorations

but Queen Alexandra's taste wl'll be
consulted at ever turn.
Marlborough House will be thorough

other palace which will be repaired
'and re-decorated on an extensive scale
Is Clarence House, St. James, where
the Duke end Duchess of Connaught
have their permanent London
home,
' "Tit functions will be resumed next

wear the p'nk uniform with plumed
hats which was used during the per

PITY AND BEAUTY
The most beautiful thing,
in the world, is the baby,
all dimples and joy. The
most pitiful thing is that same
baby, thin and in pain.
The dimples and joy have
gone, and left hollows and fear.
It is fat that is gone; gone
with it, comfort and color and
curve ; all but pity and love.
The little one gets no fat
from her food : has had none
for weeks : she is . living, on
what she had stored in that
plump little body of hers.
She is starving for fat ;' it is
death ; be quick 1
Scott's emulsion of cod-liver
oil is the at she can take. It
will save her.
Wt'll tend yoa a little to try if yoa like.
SCOTT &B0WNE, 409 Pearl ttreet, New York,
sn ot tne toriiico:nng armv order
tl .lt nil oilyers sh.ill dress in u.iiform
in:-i-a 1 of mufti in public, just like
privates.
This is the great topic of conversa
tion In smart ss.-!ety at present. The
order comts into force In April 2. It
ordains that all army officers wear
their uniforms in public aiut at theaters
and places of entertainment as well.
This appii.s t-1 ill household regiments,
ft. 'uguards and ,-avalry.
It cannot be sail that this order is
at all popular. It Is generally thought
that it has been Drought about by the
instigation of th? kaiser, when he was
over here. It do.s not mean, of course,
that the officers will always have to
appear in scarlrt or will have to wear
their long LralJel frock coats and
neaked cap?.
It is unilerstool that the whole thing
is supposed, to be an incentive to re
cru'l'nff. Eirl Roberts and the king
have had many long discussions on the
subject.

a day.
The failure of the boys to report

Hotel on the night of August 13, lsys.
the date she was murdered. 1 do not

of the receiving ship Vermont has de
vised many plans to increase the en
I'stnui ts. said:
mere is line danger mat tne navy
will be very short of men In the near
future. At the present the outlook Is
bright. About two years ago the alarm
was raised that the navy would soon
be without men to man the different
ships already In commission, much less
the nc.v ones in process of construction.
What might be termed the svare about
lack of ra-Mi s noiv over. With the
number of lew recruiting plans that
have been trlej the navy has found
new resources to draw from and there
l.f little doubt that we will b? able to
get enough men at all times."

respondent, being caused by reports that

with such precision that It Is suspected
that negotiations for th submission of
the Boer general have ben in progr.-ns
and that the time and place have been
agreed upon. South Africans In Lon

Botha was only holding out on a point
of honor, and would abandon the hope
