The farewell came, tfaje sad adieu, and every heart was, full of j love's gopd-by. He stooped to kiss the1 one woman of his life. Her arms wefje about his neck as she 'clung to him. faint and weeping. His brow was stern anfl his jaws set, for his Engiish honor compelled him to shed never a , tear. . So T he raised her from the ground to his lips and set her down with a parting' that was al most chill, thortgh his full heart was puising like a fire engine. Then her people took her and set her on - some baulks of tim1er, wrapped another shawl about her for they knew all too well; how frail she was and let her weep,-as they,1 too, were weeping. . Every one who knew her, except her soldier lover himself, ! knew welt that they had parted forever in this- world, ior her days were numbered by , the an gels. .. : :-h..:"i I -V. . ;..t 'Her great eyes wefe like lamps in which the spirit of hcifjlrfe was fast con snming. filer beauty was not of earfh.

Well is it that love is blind. j The quay was line! with groups of people- waving : their tearful farewells. Steam whistle and aingry snorts from impatient engines rent the air. The great hawsers strained taut and were let go, as the dockmen shouted to the pilot. Then, from thej crowded soldiers on the ship, swarming bareheaded at the bulwarks and clustering on the rig ging, and the shrouds, came 'hoarsely long. loud, rcverberalting cheers. The screw churned the harbor waters, and out to sea, out into the mist, passed the troopship. . j : -' ; Wild-eyed.- with wet rose blossoms on her cheeks, still sat she there gazing gazing gazig, seeling one soldier only, till the ship was a little speck at sea and they, led her away. Poor, stricken soul! Not'fotr her would ever come the joy of wedding bells. The veldt was like a furnace. The hot South African sun blazed .on high. The men in khaki were stretched upon the burning sand.' athirstj on the waterless plain. Ahead of themn. beyond the ant heaps amid 1 which tihejr sought some trivial shade and cover.-stood a kopje full of the Boer enemjf. And there water was or death. - y - All day those bravet English boys lay under the burning sun. Little wreaths of sand curled up and; eddied and swept away into the distance like a beautiful cloud. Particles of siilica and specks of impalpable dust hung like a mist over the torrid earth, ami the' sun, plaved with these glittering! particle. grldUng and painting tlie;irik scent beauty.-But k wai an agony aihI a horror la endtfrc.

VoIley;atter volley was given back, until out ran the stirring cry, Fix bayonets!" ' . i .There was a ring of merry steel and a 'loud hurrah. '.But the crack of, the Mauser rattled yet " from bush and bowlder.; ' Many;' a ; Briton fell before the Boers , were met," and then theh there wai carnage and fierce bayonet work, grim ftglittrtg and deeds of rage and battle and blood.

One wiped rhe foam from hisi mourh and put a cup to his lips, and he 'drank, greedily. But his head fell on one side, -so they laid -hint too sleep under the stars. And when the morning broke it was seen that this - hero among a band of heroes, where all are heroes, -was dead. AH his manliness and; ? courage had passed away.

IN Tire human race has use ior all the India rubber it can get .'at . present. This country required 10,000,000 pounds niore last' year than the year before. The great demand in America and Eu rope and , tbr resulting higher price of raw rubber'Tiave led to the "fitting but of expeditions to (find new fields. Sonne explorers sent out by syndicate last year to the rubber regions of Para and Amazqnas reportetl that the further thev ascended tlie Amazon and its trib- iutaries tlw more .rubber thev tmind? land also that rubber gatherers we-j -working only a small part of the. frees, ,T1,.t ;f ,.f ,i.'a Uhat the demand for rubber is corrstant- ly growing, while Brazil's production of the article is scarcely equalling that of earlier years." - . . It is now asserted that forests of rub- bcr trees in the Amazon valley will yield 50 per cent, more product witb some cultivation. There is an increas--ing tendency to open rubber planta tions on the. Amazon and the same means of enlarging the output i likely " to be introduced on the Congu. Vhere the law already forbi(ls killing the rub ber vine and requires all villages to plant a certain arniount of rubber every year..: ; '. : r " - The .new discowries in Africa are just now regarded with "much interest by he 1 rubber trade of Europe. For some, time the. upper Congo lias been the largest, source of rubber outside of Brazil. Its product has about ' trebled in the past two years: but the stories coming from the southern Cameroon in the past eight months' give reason to believe that this German territory is even richer in rubber than the Bel gian Congo. .Last "summer Dr. PIchn. whom the German government sent to study tire resources-oi the Cameroons. reported that . he had found a great abundance of caoutchouc all along-the river banks. A little later Lieut. Von Stein, also a government agent, on a mission of commercial exoloratton. de clared that the Landolphia vine.- the source of most of the Congo rubber, is so abundant in the forests, and the rub ber trees, known as kixia. are so nu merous in other parts' of the country; that the southern Cameroons alone might be depended upon to supply the -world with rubber for many years. Finally, the information just brought to Europe by Mr. Schlechter fiully con firms the reports of his predecessors. He was Instructed by the German Co lonial Industrial corrwnrission V study Ihe -methods of collecting rubber at Lagos, on tlie Congo and in the Cam eroons.;, lie congratulates the South Cameroons Society on their valuable territory, which he says is . tfic finest rubber Tegaon he has seen in Africa. He thinks it is perhaps richer than the ' most celebratedrof the Congo river dis tricts While on the Congo, a laborer is expected to collect one pound of nibber a day, the daily yield .in the Cameroons is about ifive pounds a dav. or nearly as much as the collectors ot Para rubber obtain. wherethe yield is the largest in the world for the amount of labor expended. , ' Brazil supplies us with more than half of our raw ruliber. Thouirh we receive Very little African- rrrt-4ir.ii,- direct, a considerable quantity comes here from European forwarders. TJie whole world is interested in the devel opment of the industry and the con servation of the sources of sunnlv. A yet. Para rubber has the stamp of high est approval, but other retrions will probably yield an equally satisfactory supply. The cultivation of the numer ous rubber trces'and vines will in time improve this great industry, now in its crude and early stage, so that the yield ' will be the best possible in mtalitv and - quantity. iN. Y. Sun. WANT A PARDON. Governor T. T. Geer is in receipt of a petition, nuj mcrously signed, for the pardon of Thomas Voght. a young man sent to the penitentiary from , Portland in March, 1800. for the crime of burglar-1 izing a pawnshop, and whose sentence s three years, ihe petition is headed by Rev , Henry A, Barden. a I ortland c.'ergjiman. lite petitioners state -that the young man was not a criminal un til he fell in with evil companions, who nduced him to join them in the crime, . and that, when the pawnshop was burn glarizcd, he took no part in the actual work, but was stationed as a watch out side,. They further urge that the young mau, if pardoned, will return to his lome and make a useful citizen. . . As an additional reason why. clemency should be shown in his case the fact is set out by' Rev. Barden thatthe pris oner served as a member of Light Bat tery A..
