RECEPTION‘OF JACK TARS.

GREAT DEMONSTRATION IN LONDON.

The annals of service demonstrations probably show nothing to parlilel the ethusiasm with which the naval heroes of Ladysmith, the officers and crew of the British first class cruser Powerful, were greeted in London. The scenes were remarkable and in spiring. The whole route was a float ing mass of color and the enthusiasm displayed was of the most frantic char- | acter. The flags of all nations, banners and mottoes formed an almost | continuous canopy for Captain Lamb- | ten and the contingent of the Powerful to pass under. Stands were erected at all the points of vantage, the houses were crowded with sight-seers, viewing with ene another in honor- ing the gallant sailors. There was one continuous roar of greeting, waving of handkerchiefs, flags and hats as the} naval brigade, with the khaki colored | guns marched from the depot to the | Horse Guards’ parade, where the Prince of Wales, in the uniform of an admiral | of the fleet, accompanied by the First Lord of the Admirality, Mr. George J. Goschen, and a number of high naval and military officers, inspected the blue jackets.

They were surrounded by thousands of privileged guests who so warmly ap- plauded the defenders of Ladysmith, but whose reception of the sailors in no way equalled the intense enthusiasm. | displayed in the streets.

; + ;

After the inspection by the Prince | | know, are revelling among streams of

of Wales and others, the parade form- eda square with the officersin the, centre and the First Lord of the Ad- | miralty and the Prince of Wales spoke briefly in terms of admiration of the work and valor of the seamen and offi- cers, and then Mr. Goschen individual- ly introduced them to the Prince of Wales, who shook hands with them and said a few words to each.

The Princes of Wales introduced Captain Lambton to the Princess of Wales and the brigade was afterward entertained at luncheon, preparatory

to marching through the city. After the men sat down to luncheon the

Prince of Wales, the Princes of Wales,

| Mr. Goschen, and others traversed the | rooms and were heartily cheered.

Around the Masion House the jackies’ admirers were clustered in numbers that al business way suspend- ded. From all parts of the country men and women had come and they were determined to get a glimpse of Captain Lambton, his tiny midshipmen and the trusty tars, and so they struggled to get on lampposts and win dow ledges and forced their way into private offices. There they waited patiently until an occasional cheer broke into a roar, announcing the com- ing of the sailors. Captain Lambton, riding, wearing a cocked hat, followed 100 mounted policemen, who had to prepare the rouie. Behind Captain Lambton was the blue-clad Cold- stream Guard's band, after which came the blue-jackets. Amid thunderous cheering and the waving of flags {rom several hundred thousand people they entered the Royal Exchange and sat down to tea. This finished, they marched back to the station in the evening and returned to Portsmouth. HUMBLE SERVITORS OF THE

QUEEN.

The question of remounts is at pres- ent being greatly agitated. How much they were needed:is vividly proved by the account ot The Daily Telegraph's

} military correspondent at Stellenbosch. } He was ordered to inspect horses re-

turned from the front and report if any or how many were again fit for service. He thus describes the result of his inspection :—

I will attempt no vividly drawn pic- ure. But had you seen those bags of yones looming through the twilight, on heir way to the morning feed, it would save started you no less than it did me

and would have brought before you,

you have sympathies for the horse as wellas forthe men. The less dis- crepit among this awfu! band of skele- tons had been back from the front about a month, the worst cases about a fortnight—representing, with others I was yet to see, in great part the rem nant of General French’s good cavalry chargers, with which he forced his way to Kimberley. How these ragged frame works still supported lite, even on the improved diet of their present quarters, was in itself a marval.

most of them moved forward, some

even blithefully, to thei: food—squeez- | ing their gaunt, projecting hips into the | ‘ | some |

crush along the feeding truugh. few still bore signs of wounds scarce healed, Their destrainment at

Several were dead in dead at the station, a few more on the way tothe farm, while on most days afterward one or more would succumb from sheer weak- ness. If it be true that the convoy of 120 wagons, captured by the Boers on Riet River,contained the forage intend- ed for the cavalry force, and that up- ward of fifty hours afterwards the horses of the force had to continue their march without any nourishment whatever, no wonder they fell down to

| die by the roadside in hundreds, or

that this great deed of the relief of Kimberley was costly to a degree that makes one shudder for very pity for the poor animals that had to be sacri- ficed.

It was the same at the next farm, and atthe third, I care not to call up the rememberance of those angular, almost transparent, frames and totter- ing limbs, Of the whole six hundred only four could be feund against whose hoof numbers one could write “Fit for service.” Of the others not half are likely to do service again for her Ma- jesty. The remainder, it is pleasing to

cold water, in wide, if not very luxuri- ant, pasture, and twice a day come to

'the troughs for what the Americans

term “a good square meal.” For my humble part, I should venture to con- sider the meal both better and squar- er if its component parts were more suited to digestive organs already en- feebled by starvation. Wheat, eight pounds, and straw chaff unlimited (as per contract), are hardly calculated to coax back flesh and stamina exhausted by prolonged fatigue and hunger. But this point, I have reason to believe, has been duly presented in the proper quarter, and is likely to be remedied. For—it is satisfactory to add—out of about one hundred and fifty similar cases arriving at Stellenbosch camp 4 month or five weeks ago, and there fed freely frcm linseed, bran and oats, more then forty have already returned to the front in tolerable working con- dition. I now quit this rather sad sub- ject.

PRETORIA’S WEAK DEFENCES.

The ‘Politken, Capenhagen, prints a letter sent from Pretoria on March 9, purporting to be from Captain Allum, ot the Norwegian army, who went to South Africa on behalf of his govern- ment to study the war. He describes the Boers as being busily engaged in

< uffering caused by Piles

ls Quickly Ended when

Dr. A. W. Ghase’s Ointment is applied

Resides the intense agony caused by the itching, burning sensations of piles, there are other symptoms which produce 1 sstlessness and at times excruciating gains known only to the

ictim of piles. What aan one give to be free of this terrible disease? And yet there is a cure—@ ositive cure—which does not cost much andis not painful or difficult to apply.

Dr. A. W. Chase's Ointment is, so far as is known, the only absolute cure for blind, itch- ing, bleeding and protruding piles. It gives relief at the first application and affords a per- fect cure in the mos: aggravated cases.

Mr. Isaac Fester, Erieview, Ont., says: “7 was troubled with itching piles for two years and could not sleep at night. | was half crazed and tried everything. Finally seeing Dr, Chase’s Ointment advertised i tried it and found it good. After a second application I found relief, and one iarge box cured me, Have never been bothered since, and I can re-
