meekly gte- The baby's coming often looked for ward to as a time of dread and danger. Many women are physically unfit to be come mothers. I They are sick and weak !n a womanly way and may well look with fear toward the time of maternity. Intelligent preparation for this time is most essential. An athlete " trains " for months before his trial. Most women do not ' train " at all and yet their trial is to be fifty times as severe as. the athlete's. I - During the period of gestation every woman should use every means to strengthen the organs that are to be tried. They should be kept in perfect health. . The faintest symptom of dis-" order or disease should be promptly eliminated. I Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is designed to do this very thing has been ' doing it for over; thirty years. It is the one sure medicine for all female com plaints, It is the- only medicine that may be absolutely depended upon to practically abolish the pain and danger of childbirth. It is the only preparation of its kind that is the invention of a reg ularly graduated physician a skilled and experienced specialist in the cure of diseases of women. 0 Mrs. Emerson Allen, of Dorset, Ontario Co., Ont., writes : " I was in very poor health for a long time, dating from the birth of my little girl. 1 tried different doctors and different medicines. I took four bottles of ' Favorite Prescription and seem to be perfectly well again." WHEN THE TIDE IS LOW. LIZZIE CLARK HARDY. Some time at eve when the tide is low I -shall slip my mooring and sail away, j With no response to the frieu&ly hail Of kindred craft in the busy bay. In the silent hush of the twilight pale, When the night stoops down to em brace the day, And the voices call ia the waters' flow , Some time at eve when the tide is low 5 I shall slip my mooring and sail away. Through purple shadows that darkly I1 CMX . 0!er the ebbiDg tide of the Unknown' Sea, I shall fare me away, with a dip of sail And a ripple of waters to tell the tale Or a lonely voyager, sailing away To Mystic Isles, The craft of those! where at anchor lay who have sailed be- fore O'er the Unknown Sea to the Unseen ' Shore. j A few who have watched me sail away Will miss my craft from the busy bay; Some friendly barks that were an- chored near Some loving souls that my heart held dear j In silent sorrow will drop a tear, But I shall have peacefully furled my sail I In moorings sheltered from storm or gale, And greeted the friends who have sailed before, j O'er the Unknown Sea to the Unseen Shore. I SUNDAY SELECTIONS. Truth is by its very nature in tolerant, for every truth is the denial of its opposing error. Luthardt. . - The household in which God dwells, however poor it may be in other respects, is nevertheless, rich in essential things. Xever lay out all you can afford; for he who lays out everything he can afford lays out more than he can , afford. Arab Maxim, If we strivej to become what we strive to appear, manners may often be rendered useful eruides to the performance of our duties. Sidney Smith. There- were many rooms in Noah's ark, but only one door. There are many denominations among evangelical Christians, but there is but one door into the kingdom of heaven, he who says, "I ami the door; by me, if any man enter in, he shall be saved." The Christain life is a gofng to the Father. Some travel swiftly, some are long upon the road,' some meet many pleasant advertures by the way, others pass through fire and peril ; but though the path be short or winding and though the path be quick or slow, it is a going to the Father.

Reported That the British Have Gained a Great Victory ' Over the Boers. ATTACKS UPON MAFEKING. The Boers Repulsed But Fljhtlnf Still Continues Another . Armored Train Blown Up No Engagement at Ladysmlth-More Troops. i Hy Cable to the Moraine Star. London. October 14. Further de tails are. at hand regarding the destruc tion of the armored train at Kraapan. These show that Captain Nnsbitt, who was in command of the train, was warned at Maribogo that the Boers held the line. He replied that he was bound to proceed. "Nearing Kraapan the train dashed into a culvert that had been blown uo by the Boers, who were lying in wait for the train. The Boer artillery immediately opened fire and a desperate fight appears to have en sued, lasting four hours, with the odds greatly against the British. The Yre cise details are uncertain. It seems, however, that a police pa trol, attracted by the firing, approached within about . two tnousana yaras of Kraapan, saw the tr.ain ditched", with the Boers' artillery still pounding at it. but noticed no -response. The Boers seemed afraid to approach until the wreck was complete, and the police patrol feared, as there was no sign of fife near the train, that the entire force had perished in a desperate attempt to get back to Mafeking, where they knew it was anxiously awaited with its load of guns and ammunition. It is reported that the Boers lost heavily, but there is no means of verifying this. Two miles of rails were torn up. The Rumored Battle in Natal. There , is no authoritative confir mation of the report that a battle has been fought in Natal between Gen. Sir George Stewart White and the Orange Free State troops, although there is no question that the Boers have crossed the frontier at several points. They are said to have eighteen guns ; but as it is reported the engagement began before the Boers had formed a laager cr thrown up earthworks, the British cavalry and artillery are liable to have had the best of the fighting. - It is even already reported that the British have gained a great victory, that two thousand Boers were killed, and that the British loss was very slight, but this may be without founda tion, as another report has been pub lished to the effect that Lord Roths child was in receipt of news of a great British victory, but when the Asso ciated Press representative questioned, him regardingthe alleged dispatch he replied: "lam sorry that I have not received anything of the sort.' A Disquieting Report. London, October 14. In connection with a rumored attack upon Mafeking a disquieting report comes from Pre toria, to the effect that theRustenburg and Marico commandoes have crossed the border and entered the Rooigrond territory between Lichtenburg and Mafeking, blowing up the bridge over the Maloppo river and destroying a train load of dynamite and the track. As aMfeking depends upon Rooicrand for its water supply, the significance of this move is evident The Boers, it is reported, have seized the railway station between Vryburg and Kimberly. Fighting is still con tinuing in the neighborhood. According to dispatches from the front the Boers have made several attacks upon Mafekin?. all of which have been repulsed. K . Another Train Blown Up. The Exchange Telecranh Comnanv has received a dispatch from Cape Town, dated this morning, saying that the Boers have blown up another armored , train, carrying telegraph operators from Mafeking.

DISMAL SWAMV CANAL. Re-opening Celebration Visit of Inspec tion Prominent Business Men Reception at Elizabeth City. By Telegraph to the Horning Btar. Norfolk, Va., October 14. The re-opening of the old Dismal Swamp canal was celebrated to-day and the canal officially opened to traffic. A party of one hundred prominent rail way and steamship officials, repre senting many of the great lines of the Atlantic seaboard, went over the canal on the steamer 'Ocean View. The start was made from Norfolk this morning at 8.30 o'clock, and Elizabeth City, N. C, was reached about 5 o'clock. The fleet of inspection included the steamer Ocean View, tug Nettie, of Norfolk, and the torpedo boat Talbot. All three were locked through the locks at one lockage. The reception at Elizabeth City, was an ovation. As the fleet reached the wharf, all the mill and b' at whistles at Elizabeth City let loose at once, the wharves were crowded with cheering thou sands, the brass bands of the city played and the mayor and his staff re ceived tbe guests with an address of welcome. This was followed by a banquet at Hotel Arlington. Tbe party then, returned to Norfolk ou a special traiu over the Norfolk and Southern railway. The canal begins at Deep creek, connects with Pasquotank river aud is twenty two miles long: Traffic through it has opened in good shape, and barges drawing eight feet are go ing through without difficulty. The new water way enables all light draft shipping to take the inland channel and avoid the dreaded Diamond Shoals. It also opens up to improvement thou sands of acres of fertile land and a great area of good hard wood and pine timber. MOVEMENTS OF WARSHIPS. Rsce Between Naval Vessels from United States to tbe Philippines Vessels Sail This Week. By Telegraph to the Horning Star Washington,' October. , 14 The Navy Department has" been informed that the New Orleans will be able to sail from New York navy yard for Ma nila next Friday. The boilers were found to be in a much better condition than was at first reported. The navy people are watching with interest what promises to be one of the finest ocean races on record between naval vessels from the United States to the Philip pines. The Nashville got away to day, starting from San Juan and bound first to Suez. - The Marietta sails Monday from Lambert's Point in Hampton Roads. The fast Brooklyn is also expected to sail Monday from Norfolk, while as before stated, the New Orleans sails Friday. These dhips all go by way of Suez. From the other side of the continent there will start during the coming week the Pan ger first, probably, this boat having been substituted for the Badger, and then the Newark. Although handi capped by nearly a week, these vessels have the shortest course, and the naval officers here believe that McCalla will land the Newark at Manila ahead of the faster eastern bound ships.
