Tn. Revolt of tn. K.mr..

PRETORIA, South Africa. Aug. 1.-THE
rebellion of the katfirs is assuming an
alarming condition. The Transvaal police
detachment, which has been attempting
to relieve the garrison at Agatha has been
repulsed with serious loss. Emboldened
by their success the Kaffirs pursued the
retreating troopers and attacked the main
column of the Boer forces. The Kaffirs
were driven back, but the advance of the
column was retarded. From the Boer
settlements all along the Letaha river
come repors of severe fighting between
isolated parties of retreating Beers and
Kaffirs, who are burning Boer home
steads all along the river. The
Beers are fleeing before the Kaf-
property, but large quantities of provis-
ions and cattle have necessarily fallen
into the hands of the Kaffirs. The latter
have murdered n number of Beers and
their wives and children, and the fiercest
feelings of the Beers have been aroused
against the rebels. In all the disturbed
districts mail and passe niger coaches have
been stopped, passengers killed. coaches
looted and destroyed, and mules stolen.
The Murchisen road is entirely closed.
The Beers are reported to have erected
strong barbados across ii at the point
where it passes between two hills. and
they are said TO have prepared to defend
the mails. The government is reinforcing
its troops as rapidly as possible. and IL is
expected that an advance In force will be
made upon the Kaffirs today or tomorrow.

SEATING THE AUDITORIUM.

The EAGLES proposition Of how to seat
the auditorium seems to have struck re-
sponsive chord There had been no action
upon the part of the officials, consequently
no committee appointed. 1t was only a
suggestion. However, as one gentleman
stepped into the EAGLE Office yesterday
aad subscribed five dollars, which would
pay for ten chairs or more. the EAGLE will
receive the names and subscriptions Of all
those vino find it the handiest, if there are
no objections, publishing the names or
otherwise. Late last night the following
note was also received from Rev. David
Winters, pastor of the First Presbyterian
church:
To the Editor OF the Eagle.
Your suggestion in the columns of the
EAGLE OF the 9th inst, relative TO the
seating of the auditorium, is an excellent
enc. l will pay for TWO chairs.

His institution has large interests here.
and being in a state where there are no
Coxeyites he feels that they are perfectly

While st Grand Island, Mr.. Newbery
saw the Coxeyites under the generalship
of Kelly. and be regards that gentleman AS
the brainiest leader in the movement.
This is Mr.. New bery's first visit to Wich-
ita and he is delighted with the city.
especially the fine trees that shade every
street outside of the two main business
streets. He says Wichita is undoubtedly
the nucleus of very large and important
commercial center, and regards her power
of endurance through adverse times as
something remarkable. He has already
obtained = correct idea OF the resources OF
the surrounding territory and hence re-
CARDS investments here as perfectly good.

SHOT FIRED.

Last night, when everything was serene
and quiet, the explosion of a pistol was
heard in the Citizens bank building and a
fat policeman came to the scene at $40
gait and rushed in expecting to encounter
the grim visage of Bill Dalton standing
over the PROSTATE form of a martyred
cashier. or see some young clerk lying
stark and stiff on the floor pierced through
the head with a suicides bullet. No Dali
ton or no dead man was there, but a young
man pale as the moon and rembling
like the school ma'ams on the witness
stand during the recent Doodle case. The
young man was going out TO play the
heavy villain in amateur theatricalS and
was unloading his revolver when it went
off accidentally into the solid brick wall.
