I( is true that Lord Roberts dis
atch leaves much unaid as to the
whereabouts oi the oUir foicct. bar
hose of G!.iera Fmifli and General
Run die. Nothing is udd about the
troops of Gcnerafijir?.ba.nt. Pole-Carew,

from AliwalXoith. i.h .v that several
small comrMndo4 aie iill hoverin r
the vicinity of Spriugiwld,' causing
certain ammnt of djjf:r. and the ad
vices from Dewetsdrop. iutlimng th

conclusion that it wi.i still be1-necessary
to employ a considerable fcody b.
troops to, keep the Fiec State clear of
the Boers C
The probability is that Boers, who be

is that the who!; l-nc must be again

AN ULTIMATUM.
Constantinople." April 26. -The Amer

ter of Foreign 'Affairs, Tewfik Pasha,
on Tuesday, is couched in peremptory
-terms, demanding immediate payment
of the indemnity several times promised
to 'Minister Straus by the Sultan. The
(note does not : fix a time limit fur n
answer, but its tenor is not far from the
character of in ultimatum. It has pro
duced a great impression upon the
Porte, whiehl however shows no dis
position to. modify the attitude hitherto
maintained, namely, repudiating the re
sponsibility and seeking to -diminish the
importance of the matter. It is pre
sumed that the Porte's reply will be in
khis "sense, and hence it is feared the
United States government will be
obliged to take steps to enforce its demands.'-

weeks ago he decided to submit to an
operation.' going to the St. Vincent's

the operation, which, it was hoped,
would result in giving him relief, and
restore him to health. He had, how
ever, waited too long, his system hav

rebatlding of the Brownsville' mill in
1873, Mr. Kay leased the building and
operated the mill for Ja term of two
years. At the end of that time he or
ganized the Brownsville Woolen Mill
Company, purchased the ! mill and ma-
chinery, and continued fts business he
was superintendent and was also a.
member.of the board of directors, JL Mi"
Moyer being president.) This business
was conducted very- successfully until
1888, when a disagreement arose in the
firm and thef business was sold out.
'Mr. Kay then took anCxtcnsive trip
abroad, the first long vacation he had
igiven himself in thirty!, years; he was
accompanied by his w fe, and after a
mdsf pleasurable tour returned to Sa
lerid.a Here the citizens offeredrhim a
cash 1 bonus of $20,000 if he would build
a $100,000 mill in this city. The pro'
position was' accepted, land in August,
1899, he began the j construction of the
building; he purchased four acres with
a fine water power on 'lill creek, con
venient to the railfoadj Then visiting
Eastern cities he :mad , an inspection
of large factories, and bought his ma
chinery at. Lawrence 'Massachusetts,
iiich-.ding all the latest iilnprovemnts.
This mill burned down jin 1896. but was
at once rebuilt on a larger and grander
scale, and is today thej leading woolen
factory on the 'Pacific coast.
Mr. Kay organized the Waterloo
Development Company, which corpor
ation purchased the Oakland Hosiery
Mills, one of the largejst on. the coast;
this mill was removed t'o Waterloo,
.where, the company owned valuable
water power, and was joperated in con

had a capacity oif 200' hands, and was
opened ancf put in operation -.n the sum

perhaps, was the greatest and most

an address basing his remarks on the

l4 18. The speaker said, he selected the
text because of its appropriateness and
spoke of the insufficiency of human
svmnathv. however deep and sincce, to
coin fort the bereaved, with which he
contrasted God's sympathy which neve
failed to reach the wounded beart. It
w-as right for the Chrisian-ta-mourn the
departed brother, but not without the
hope of eternal lite, which was posses
sed by the Christian. The faith of the
Christian was another source of c-rrn-
fort. this faith was two-told. It ac
cepted the death and the resuerrection
of Cbri-st. The two are inseparably'
linked. The deduction is thai the dead
will rise ami be with Him. The ground
for this faith is the promised the resur
rection. All are awaiting the coming
of Christ when His mission will be ful
filled. Nothing was lost by dying be
fore the coming of Christ.
: After; reading a brief- biographical

became more personal in bis remarks.
The deceased had for twenty-five yea's
Held membership in the Baptist church,

was ever faithful. "None were more

ways in his place and never failed to
Ierform his part. He lived the lite of
Christ. iAt -what stage is- our brother

conies the awakening and the entering
