Capetown, March 28.--Despatches re-
ceived here from Buluwayo to-day am
nounce that Frederick c. Selous. the
explorer who left that town Yesterday
at the head of strong detachment OF
volunteers and police, has met and en-
gagged the enemy, killing large
number. Five of the troopers were
killed. The prompt action of the au-
thorities has had a great effect on
the rebellious Matabeles, who did not
expect to be attacked for some time to
come.
The Matabeles have burned a large
store, about forty miles from Bulu-
wayo and executed a medicine dance
around the flames,
The transport riders are abandoning
their wagons in all directions and are
hurrying into the towns where armed
men are gathering for defense and for
active operations against the rebels.
Many fiendish murders have been re-
ported and the settlers are terror
stricken. In nearly all cases they have
abandoned their homes and are en-
camped in laagers while awaiting to be
rescued by the mounted police and
volunteers. Others have placed their
houses in a state for defense, and have
determined to fight until assistance
reaches them
The gravity of the situation has not
been exaggerated although it is still
hoped that the promptness of the au-
thorities in commencing operations
against the Matabeles may result in
checking the spread of the rebellion.

London, March 28.-The Governor Of
Cape Colony, Sir Hercules Robinson,
telegraphs confirming the report that
the explorer Selous has been engaged
with the Matabeles who were driving
away many looted cattle toward the
Melangmani hills, where the natives
are believed to be mastering in force.
The cattle were Te-captured. Sir Her
cules Robinson, also confirms the re-
port that the native police have de-
serted and ne adds that one inspector
was murdered.
Eighty men and few women have
arrived at GwelO, which is considered
to be safe from attack. The TUli road
the governor reports is still open and
Ruiuwayo has been placed in a state
of defense: but more rifles and am
munition are needed there.
Finally the governor of Cape Colony
confirms the report that Lobengula's
son has placed himself at the head of
the Matabele rebels.

THEY TRIED rosTEAL HIS CHILD.
Now kidnappers are Writing Threaten
ing letters to Ralph Modieska.

Chicago, H., March Within the
last two weeks two attempts have been
made to kidnap the four-year-old
granddaughter of Mime. Modjeska, the
actress, in this city.
The first attempt was made while
d nurse girl had the child out for a
walk a man seized the child and
started to run. The nurse followed
him several blocks screaming for help
before she succeeded in recovering her
charge That night Ralph Modjeska,
the father, received an anonymous note
warning him to leave the city under
penalty OF losing his child If he refus-
eel.
The second attempt 10 steal the child
was made a few days ago. Since then
Mojeska has received numerous threat
ening letters and has been taking ac-
tive steps to ascertain their source.
He says he cannot account for the at
tempts to steal his child and drive him
out Of the city.

all caused h storm of indignation. and

A CHURCH AT WAKE FOREST.
A House of Worship to be Built by the
Baptists There.

Wake Forest, N. c., March 2s.-CSpe-
cial.) e. Y. Mullins important
series of lectures before the college on
The Missionary Interpretation of
Christianity" was given on the 18th
and 10th of the present month. For
the six months before, he has been
associate corresponding secretary OF
the Foreign Mission Board at Rich
mond, and these lectures were the last
service rendered by him in that rela-
ton. He went directly from here to
his new pastorate in Newton Centre,
Mass.
An action which concerns very in
timately our whole community and
in which the Baptists Of the State are
interested, was taken last Sunday at
the close of the sermon by the pastor,
DR.. Gwaltney. Upon motion of Presi-
dent Taylor, and after remarks by him
and Prof. Gulley, the church and con-
gregation, by rising vote, decided to
undertake the erection of church
building. The following building com
mittee, with plenary powers, was at
once appointed: n. Y. Gulley, chair
man; G. f Reid, w. IT. Haywood, w.
j. Ferrell, w. NJ. Dickson, w. J.. Poteat,
IT. e. Holding, z. v. Peed, and J. b.
Carlyle. On Mr.. Reid's declining to
serve, Mr.. M. sPurefoy was put in his
place. The committee have already
begun their labors. They speak of a
house which win accommodate 500
persons, costing about $1,000 or $4,000.
II is thought that many old students
of the college and many friends
throughout North Carolina will show
a practical interest in the building.
Sunday evening, the 22nd, a local
society Of the Baptist Young Peoples
Union of America was organized here
upon motion Of DR.. Gwaltney.
The Literary Circle met last night
at DR.. VI. b. Royals residence. A

TRIED TO POISON HIS FATHER.
A Drug Clerk at Elkin Puts Arsenic in
a Prescription.

Winston, ~ c., March 28.- Especially
DIR. j. w. Ring, q practising physi-
clan and druggist, and one of the lead
ing citizens of Ellfin, Surry county,
and several members of his family
have been critically i'll for several days.
1t is announced to-day that the sick
ness was caused by an attempt Of the
doctors sixteen-year-old son to poison
his father by putting arsenic in pre-
scription which. the young man, clerk
in the drug store, was given to fill.
One of the States leading physicians,
who was summoned to EIlkin to see
DIR. Ring and his family, says that an
overdose of the poison is the only thing
that saved their lives.
The sons excuse for his action was
that he wanted to kill his father be-
cause he did not allow him such privi-
Ieges as he thought he deserved. To
prevent his arrest the father gave the
son money and sent him to the far
west The affair has produced lively
sensation.
