Fine Performance at the Gaiety.

Miner & Vans Bohemian Bur
lesquers are among the troupes that
fill the bill as promised on advance
paper. This company of stars, head
ed by the only Billy Van, is by far
the best that has appeared at the
Gaiety theater this season. The per-
formance begins with an olio in which
the dainty Esmeralda Sisters gave a
pleasing exhibition in acrobatic dane
ing
Fred Wyckoff, the character come
dian told many new and original stor-
les that captured the upper tiers, and
Fisher and Clark gave the most laugh
able performance in the way of grot-
esque tumbling ever witnessed ON the
Gaiety stage. Mitchell and Cain ap-
peared in a very noisy as well as hum
orous act. - Billy Van and Vevie No
briGa i'm a new sketch entitled MY
Busy Day" were as funny as ever.
They were ably assisted by Bobby
North in the musical numbers.
The performance ends with a musical
burlesque entitled " Beauty's Apple -
in which the entire company appeared
which was characterized by dazzling
costumes and scenery: bright music,
and continuous fun. There is scarce
ly a dull line in the performance given
by the company and much that is new
and original is presented. The Bo-
hemian Burlesquers will he at the
Gaiety theater today and tomorrow
afternoon and evening.

Sunday Nights Fire Causes Great
Excitement-Special Meeting Of
Council This Evening-Personal
News.


Sunday evening at o'clock flames
were seen issuing from the cupolal
over the Delaware and Hudson breaker
blacksmith shop. The watchman at
the breaker a few moments later dis
covered the fire and sounded an alarm.
BY this time the fire was burning
fiercely and in a few minutes had eX-
tended 10 the carpenter shop which
adjoins it. The Artesian Hose comp,
any were the first to respond to the
alarm and they deserve special praise
for their promptneSS The Crystals,
who had much further distance to
travel, also made a quick response and
both companies worked hard in subdu-
ing the flames. In doing so they We're
badly handicapped by the low pressure
of water and had their been a brisk
breeze blowing it would have been
n most difficult fire to subdue with
the little water they We're able to pour
upon it. The interior of both shops
was considerably damaged, but for
tunately about all the mems tools were
saved.
The cause Of the fire is unknown and
is somewhat of a mystery as the black
smith who was working during the
day left the shop at o'clock in the
afternoon when everything was ap-
parently safe.
1t was at first reported that the
breaker was on fire and much excite
ment prevailed. The services at the
churches had just commenced as the
alarm was sounded and so great was
the excitement it was deemed advis-

opened lire but with no effect. This
was kept up with considerable vigor
until about noon. Then the fire ceased
and the British officers imagined that
the Beers had given up the attack and
would probably withdraw from the
pass. But after the lull in the firing
had continued about an hour, a roar of
rifle reports was heard at the edge of
the plateau and it was found that the
Beers had thrown Off everything that
impeded progress and by means of
vines, grass and shrubs had crawled
up the rocks, where it seemed impos-
Sible for men to go, and were face to
face with the British. And the scene
that ensued is certainly one of the
most discreditable in the history of the
British army, an army, by the way,
that for pluck, determination and per-
sonal valor, has proud record. The
British were superior in number to the
Boer force that at first reached the top
of the height. They were all armed
with breech-loading modern rifles and
had an open space for their use. But
instead of either firing or charging
they turned and fled, panic stricken,
for the paths by which they had scaled
the heights. The total lack of courage
they displayed is clearly shown by the
fact that of the attacking Boer force
only one was killed and one severely
wounded while half of the British
force was killed, wounded or taken
prisoners, in fight that lasted but five
minutes after the Beers gained the top
of the height.
These defeats at Laing's Mex and
Majuba Hill virtually terminated the
war. 1t was determined by the British
government to push forward sutfi-
cient force to put down the rebellion of
the Beers and to vindlcate these dis
asters to the British arms and honor,
and a large body of splendidly equip
ped troops was sent to Natal for that
purpose; but as the result of a weak
and vacillating policy the English
government gave away all they had
previously gained except purely nom
inal sovereignty.
