' Mr. Wadsworth had , wth him pack ages illustrating the way : in which oleomargarine would be presented t the trade under his bill arid he claimed that the requirement' for imprinting the word "Oleomargarine" in large letters in the oleomargarine roll and not only upon the wrapper but upon the boxes enclosing the package would insure the public "against fraud. He said the oleo margarine Industry was periecny legitimate so lonpr as purchasers knew what they were getting.

London, Jan. 16. Lord Roberts has further emphasized the unsatisfactory condition in South Africa in a letter to the mayor Of Portsmouth, postponing the presentation of a sword of honor, from that city. He says: "It is most distasteful to me to be honored and feted and called upon to rejoice while so many are in bitter grief, and before we can properly re turn thanks that the cloud is being rolled away which has for more than ai year darkened the homes and crushed the hearts of so many in our country.'.' There is a good deal of uncertainty as to the exact intentions of the gov ernment in regard to the questions of reinforcements for South Africa. The announcement made sd positively by the Post that the enrollment of the BadenrPowell's police force had been abandoned is officially contradicted. v Probably the Post was led into error by the confusion of official plans, as it is now stated rthat in addition to the constabulary the war office intends to dispatch to the Cape 5000 men to 'BIBBIBBflBBIalBBBBl&BBSIBBHBtSBBB LA GRIPPE.
