BRlToNs' BITTER PILL.
Public Apprehensive That News is

Being Suppressed.
London, Nov. 4.--News that Colenso
has been evacuated was another bitter
pill for the British public, and is arous-
ing fears that the statements Of a SER
ious defeat of Gen. White may prove
true. A significant fact is that the war
office does not say when Colenso was
evacuated, so the statement emanated
Thursday from DR.. Ledys, the diplo-
matte representative of the Transvaal,
who is located at Brussels, that the
Beers had occupied Colenso was pos
sibly true. There is much apprehension
that the war office is suppressing bad
news
A special dispatch from Cape Town,
dated Nov 2 says the Beers occupied
Colesbufg, Cape Colony, Wednesday,
meeting with no resistance from the To-
cal police, who yielded to superior force.

THE CREW OF THE PELoTAs.
All Were Saved by the Dungeness
Coast Guards.

LONDON, Dec. 30.-The Hamburg
and South American liner Pelotas,
from Santos for Hamburg, struck on
the sands on the east side of Dunge-
ness, the southern extremity Of Kent,
soon after midnight in the midst of a
terrific gale which ragged all around
the coast. The storm was the worst
of the winter, and seas Immediately
began breaking over the steamer. For
a time it appeared as though no one
on board of her could be saved.
The Dungeness coast guards, seeing
the Pelotas' signals of distress, made
desperate and for time unsuccessful
efforts to launch the lifeboat in the
heavy surf beating the shore. Finally
the coast guardsmen succeeded lin
reaching the Pelotas. They remained
alongside the steamer all night, and
eventually put the rocket apparatus
in operation, saving the crew.
During the whole time the wind
blew with hurricane force, accompa-
MED by heavy rain and hail. There
were no passengers.
The Hamburg and South American
line, owners of the Pelotas, have no
connection whatever with the Ham
burg American line sailing to New
York.
Later in the day it became known
that the Pelotas was driven ashore ow-
ing to the loss of her rudder.

Christmas time is the only season of
the year which finds the travellers all
at home, and for that reason the first
annual union was held last night.
Senior Councillor James B. Treadwell
acted as master of ceremonies. and well
and truly did he play his part, assisted
as he was by the sixty of his brethren,
and applauded by the invited guests.
He, in opening the smoker, had some
thing to say, and he said it well, as fol-
lows:
Sacramento Council bids you all well
come to this, their first informal
smoker, and I trust that all members
and guests will partake freely of the
good things that we have here, and
that each one present appoint himself a
committee of one to make his neighbor
happy.
