Bovril has layed such a conspicuous part in South Africa that it forms no in- considerable feature of the story. The "Lancet has had frequent references to Bovril in the reports of the officers of the Royal Army Medical Corp Nearly every newspaper correspondent has had to refer to Bovril to make his story complete. Rudyard Kipling and Baden-Powell have written their Bovril stories. Over 500 British hospitals and similar public in- stitutions use and prescribe Bovril, not 1587 beef tea, but Bovril.

The reason is not far to seek. Bovril is KING ED WARD
ancurnisher as well as a stimulant. It
contains the albumen and fibrine, the HOTEL
sustaining properties of the beef. It is this fact, together with its absolute purity, that commends Bovril to physcians and scientists, and proves in practice what it demonstrates in analysis.

The committee discussed at some length the effect on British trade of the transfer of merchant vessels to foreign ownership and enumerated the British 'lines sold to Americans, including the Morgan syndicate, and to Germans.
Dealing with the Morgan transfer, the report says: If the American railroad management unites with the steamship management a very influential undertaking may perhaps be formed, but too many interests are often involved to make such combinations quite as powerful as they might be supposed to be. It remains, however, quite certain that the transfer
of British ships to foreign tags, whether owning foreign subsidies or otherwise, may cause serious results, such as developing new trades in which British shipowners,

MR JOHN BARRETT AND THE JAPANESE.
A Washington despatch dated the 9th

Department today and asked many in-

age, diplomatic experience, prominence in WHEN I HAVE TO PRETEND THAT I DONT, YOU KNOW.

convey to Secretary Hay in the most BRITISH AMERICAN TOBACCO
delicate manner imaginable that Japan would much prefer the appointment of some other man. Minister Takahira did
not go to the extent of making a protest and gave Secretary Hay to understand that
if Barrett were appointed his government would make no objection. But the hint was suficient.
A cablegrain was sent to Barrett some days ago asking him if he would serve at Tokio. Another cablegram was sent fox. day, it was understood, indicating to him that a declination of the proffered honour would relieve the Administration of some embarrassment. Secretary Hay said to- day after the Takahira interview that he did not understand why a young man with Barrett's fine position should wish to change for the comparativo obscurity of the Japanese mission.
No one is able to discover the real reason for Japan's objection to Barrett, unless it
gave
is because that Government believes more prominent man should be accredited to Tokio. Barrett was well received in Japan recently and before leaving here A dinner to Minister Takahira. It was conjectured that Parrett incurred the displeasure of the Japanese by advocating the exclusion of laborers of that race from the United States, but this was denied fatly by an attache of the Japanese mis- sion, who said Barrett waa personally popular with the Japanese.
Senator Bard is keeping a close watch on the situation and will press the claims of Dr Chester Rowell for the place if Barrett declines the appointment, as expected. The entire California delegation has signed- an eloquent indorsement of Dr Rowell, and they are ready to call on the President in body to present it. Senator Hanna, whose influence procured the appointment of the late Minister Buck, told Senator Bard that he had no successor to Buck in mind, but that he might look around and find one. Bard is trying to enlist. Hanna's support for Rowell.

We admitted at once that one or more of the plaintiffs being a minor or miners, this release was not a valid legal document, but we hold that, the defendant having been bound to take some sort of acknowle gment from the plaintiff's when the estate was distributed "in accordance with the forms of the will in April of 1893, if the accounts show that there has been no misconduct on our part, then the release will hold good.
The Chief Justice-He must be kind. Mr Sharp He is a relative. The Chief Justice--An uncle ? (laughter). Mr Sharp-said the account would show whether the plaintiff had acted fraudulent ly or not. The question of costs, in view of the fact that no inquiry had yet been made, should be left until after the account was gone into. Then if misconduct on the part of the defendant was proved ho would be liable not merely for these costs, but probably for all the costs in the action.
The Chief Justice--The release was set aside by consent.
