TRANSVAAL WAR.

The British are successful in the
daily fighting at Mafeking.
The boer army which is besieging
Kimberley has been reinforced.
Beers entered Zululand, looted a
town and burned the pubic buildings.
Officials in London regard the war
outlook as darker for the British than
ever
Col Baden-PoweIl refused to surren-
der Mafeking at the demand OF the
beers.
A boer force is marching on Kuru-
man. in the center of British Bechuan-
aland.
Virtually the whole British army is
to be modified in view Of the latest
news from south Africa.
A severe battle was fought when the
beers captured Colenso and cut all
way communication from Ladysmlth.
A boer command marched on Co
Ienso and reported cut to pieces by
British cavalry turned up at PETER
station.
The beers report great destruction at
Mafeking in consequence OF the polh-
bardment The British said only one

store.
The beers set fire to the veldt at
Kimberley with the design of explod-
ing British dynamite magazines. One

magazine is in danger.
Reports of great British victories

RAPID RAILROAD BUILDING

Two great railroad systems-the
Southern and the Seaboard Air Line
are giving exhibitions of railroad
building in the vicinity of Columbia
that have never been equaled before in
the south, and but few times in the
railway history of the country The
Seaboard is building from Cheraw to
Columbia, so miles, and from Column
bia to Cacey's, three miles, but this
three miles is all trestling and in
cludes a 5O0-foot steel bridge over the
Congaree river. At Cacey's it connects
with it's recent purchase, the Florida
Central and Peninsular, connecting it
with Savannah and the south. This
latter road has no bridge of its own
over the Congaree, it's entrance to this
city having been over the Southern 8
bridge and tracks.
The Southern is building from
Cacey's to Perry's, on the Western
Carolina, 80 miles, where it will have
Connection with Savannah and the
south via the western Carolina, which
it has acquired, and the Plant System,
from Yemassee to Savannah. The
Southern now gets across this gap
from Columbia to Savannah by the use
Of the Florida Central and Peninsular
but it's lease of that road expires on
January 1, when the Seaboard takes
possession of it.
Failing to complete the 80 miles OF
road to Perry's in 60 days, the South
ern will be cut off from connections
with the south, and can do no through
Florida or West India business.
If the SeabOard Air Line does not
complete the 80 miles of road and a big
river bridge in the same time, it will
be also cut off from the south, and
the Florida Central and Peninsular
road, 140 miles long, will be dead for
through business, not being able to
communicate with this city.
This extraordinary situation is the
cause of the unusual measures taken
to expedite the work, and explains the
route of new roads through woods and
swamps, being defined at night by a
blaze of electric light. Work never
ceases for minute. AS one exhausted
relay goes for rest, another comes on.
Engines and little dynamos furnish
light for night work, and building is
being conducted all along the lines at
once.-Columbia Is. c. State.

Secretary Long is going to recon-

most important recommendation is

In Chicago a municipal pawnshop,
operating under law passed by the

exhibition on a stage Of that city. Bail
was furnished and the men released

The New York board of trade
adopted resolutions asking congress
to enact a law establishing the gold
dollar as a standard and measure Of
value and providing that all bonds and
notes Of the United States and all paper
money, including national bank notes,
shall be redeemable in gold.
Ex-Gov. John w. Holt, ex-chairman
of the national commission to promote
the establishment of the university of
the United States, said that the resolu-
tons adopted by the National Educa-
tional Association committee would
not cause the friends of the project to
cease their efforts in it's behalf.
Alderman Thomas McCluskey Of
Harvey has sued John G. Shortall of
the Chicago Humane Society for
$4,000 damages because McCluskey
was arrested IN May, 1898, charged
with frequenting cock fights McClus-
key says the boys who testified that ne
attended cock fights later confessed
perjury.
Among the business transacted at the
board of Methodist Episcopal bishops
in Philadelphia was the adoption of
the plan Of Episcopal visitations for
the first half of the year of 1900. The
board chose indianapolis as the seat
of the next bishops conference, which
will begin on the last Wednesday of
April, 1900.
In accordance with an act to provide
for an appropriate national celebra-
ton of the establishment of the seat
of government in the District of Col
umbia, approved Feb. %, 1899, the pres
ident appointed the governors of all
the states of the union as members of
a committee from the country at large

from the citizens of the District OF
Columbia to prepare plans for an ap-
propriate national celebration in the
year 1900 Of the first session in the
District and the establishment of the
seat of government therein.
