Kimberley, Nov. "a (by way Of Klokfonteln,
Nov. 2T-There were a few rifle shots early
to-day from the direction Of Wrghts farm but
this was regarded as merely Of the numer-
GUS Boer tricks to draw our men out by in
ducing us to believe that the relieving forces
are drawing near. L.
This afternoon the Beers blew up two large
culverts near the rifle butts the railway line
toward Spytfontein.
The news Of the proximity of the relieving
forces greatly cheers the garrison and the in
habitants A few Beers were seen to-day, but
it is believed that the enemy is in only small
hands around Kimberley. lots Of fifty or So the
greater part having gone to Spytfontein, where
firing is believed to have been heard about noon.
From Kaffir sources comes report that there
are two large Boer laagers at Olifants DAM
with $50 wagons for water supply. The Beers
have cut the existing dam three miles distant
allowing the water to run down toward their
laagers into an old dry dam on the farm. This
is believed to be the Free state Dase OF opera
tions on the western border
The official estimate places the number Of
Boer shells fired during the bombardment Of
Kimberley at about one thousand. and ours at
no fewer than six hundred. AS the enemys
shells so frequently hit soft sandy ground. the
explosive effect is greatly neutralzed
All our wounded are In very satisfactory
condition
An armored train proceeded toward Dronfeld

enemy's cordite gun. and the train returned
after the fifth shell had been hred.
