was practically beseiged for weeks.
Various operations. some of them re-

Cecil Rhodes was an active figure, have

natives, but they We're apparently in

dispatch from Cape Town, says that af-
ter Hurrell left there on July 12tth to
join his forces at Fort Victoria, he had
a sharp engagement with the enemy at
BalingWe, which lasted for four hours.
Three of his troopers were killed and
Major Hurrell afterward joined the
forces at Fort Victoria and proceeded
from there towards Noeman's kaal.
Heavy fling has since been heard, but
the result of the engagement was not
known at Gwelo when the telegram was
dispatched.
The unfavorable news from Rhodesia
renews the suggestion for the dispatch
of additional imperial forces to assist
against the Matabeles.
The Chronicle publishes a letter from
Buluwayo this morning. giving a char
acteristic description of Burnham, the
American scout, who has done such ex-
cellent service against the Matabeles by
his shooting of Mlimo, the Matabele
sod, in a cave in the Matoppo hills.
while he was in the very act of perform
ing some of the religious mummeries by
which he has maintained his hold on the
superstitious natives.

that the boats were recalled because the
other foreign warships present failed to
follow suit The Daily News cores
pondent goes on to say:
Private information reaches me that
the insurgents in strong force approached
within cannon shot of Retimo and en-
gagged the Turks successfully, the inhab

housetops. The English men, of-war
boats witnessed the fighting and cheered
the insurgents to success.
THE Turks were hard pressed and
telegraphed to Canea for reinforce
ments."
This correspondent also says of the
outbreak in Macedonia:
The Macedonian insurgents are said
to be everywhere received with open
arms by the inha abitants, many of whom
are joining the insurgents. The Greek
government has arrester several officers
of the Trkala and Jarssa garrisons for
abetting the insurgents in Macedonia,
but no government will be able to long re-
sist the public enthusiasm, which, as re-
CARDS Macedonia, is a hundred times
stroger than that guarding Crete"

 Lord Sholto Douglas and John Coker have sent their first installment of series of articles entitled "A Thou sand Miles on a Cayuse," which was recently published in a Los Angeles paper. The story is presumed to be the faithful representation of incidents and a description of the country over which the two have travelled while en route burro back; but it is a noteworthy fact that as yet the worthy couple have not undertaken their journey in the manner described, nor will they. Doug las is washing out gold in Humbug and his supposed to be company, Cooker, is in the city. In spite of that fact a very interesting tale of adven- lures while seeing the country from the hurrican deck of cayuses is faith fully presented. Consistency is a jew el which these two young Englishmen evidently do not prize very highly.
 Jerome Mining News: The latest strike in the Cherry creek side of the district was made yesterday in the Jes- si lR. mine, now under lease and bond to Butler & Murphy. They had cleaned out an old shaft to the depth of ninety feet when work was stopped to await the arrival of track from Prescott, and a drift was started west on a small streak of rich ore, and within four feet it opened up to twelve inches of black iron ore which is sprinkled with free gold, and with this streak there are three feet of good milling ore, and But Ter, who Is an old miner and has made many rich strikes, says that this is the richest discovery he has ever made, taking into consideration the advan- tages surrounding the discovery, as with the mine there is a mill site with water enough to drive a ten-stamp mill, which will put the price of mill ing the ore at not more than $1.5O per ton.

tered into between the plaintiff and one Aggie De La Vergne.
 The plaintiff alleged as his cause for action that while in business in Cam eron, Clinton county, Mo-, he became acuuainted with the defendant. In January of this year he called at her home and was met by her father who conducted him to a room and with a loaded revolver he threatened the young man with instant death unless he married his daughter Aggie. In fear of his life if he refused Evans con- sented to the marriage and the father and the two were made one, but not until the ceremony was over did the father put away his weapon.
 Evans took flight as soon as he could get away from papa" and his gun, and came to this city where he immediately commenced suit for divorce. The young man made no attempt at con- cealment and was not surprised when he was arrested on warrant charging him with rape. Although he will not say much it seems that the relations between himself and the young lady were not as they should have been or else the girls father was needlessly alarmed.
 The young man says that he does not see how he can be held on the charge preferred, as he is married to the young lady and says that it is a scheme for the angry father to get him back there so that he could conveniently kill him.
