The school board of the east side,
backed by Prof. Winham, gave the
children a holiday today to take in
the circus, Professor Winham has
been in the schoolr room long enough
to know that a circus in town dis
tracts the attention of the children
from their books to such degree
that it is impossible to get them TO
knuckle down to study and he rea-
soned as a philosopher when he
gave his recommendation for the
holiday. Professor Wimham has
been longer in harness as a teacher
and principal of the school than
any other teacher the east side has
ever retained, and he has thus far,
given entire satisfaction to both the
people and the children under his
charge. Long may the good feel
ings exist under his management of
the present school as principal, as
well as the teachers under him.

MACRUN RULED OUT.
American Consul Not Allowed
to Act as Intermediary.
Is roo FRIENDLY TO ENGLAND.

Rumors of British Victories Arc Not Con-
hrmed Direct from Lady.
smith Do not Mention Them Com mmuni-
cation with Estcourt Cut on.
LONDON, Nov. 22.-Callers at the
United States embassy today were in
formed that the United States was no
longer able to forward messages or Sc
cure information regarding British
prisoners. President Kruger having re-
fused to permit Consul Macrum to
transmit list of prisoners. Though
Mr.. Macrum still remains, apparently,
the nominal representative of Great
Britain, he is apparently deprived Of all
powers pertaining to the position. 1t ia
understood that President Kruger OBJ
jected to Mr.. Macrum on the ground
that the United States claims for neu
trality were prejudiced by her evident
friendship for Great Britain.
LONDON, Nov. 22.-The announce
ment from Durham that communication
with Estcourt is interrupted seems to
confirm the report that Boer com
mando has established itself at Willow
Grange, near the Mooi river, and has
cut the telegraph wires. Nevertheless
whatever definite news the British COM
manders may have obtained from the
scouts of the disposition Of the Boer
commands in Natal and the conditions
of the beleaguered Garrisons particu-
larly, nothing has been allowed to de-
velop for public information. 1t is GER
tain that owing to the heavy work of
debarkation and entraining at Durham,
the preparations for the advance Of the
relief force are in no wise SO far ad-
vanced as had been supposed. This
may be due 10 the necessity of pushing
stores and provisions to the front in
needful quantities before the troops are
sent. On the other hand the celebrity
with which troops are being pushed for
ward from Cape Town equally tends to
show that all such preparations regard
ing forage and provisions were already
well advanced before the troops arrived
at Cape Town.
The reoccupation Of Naauwpoort is
good news for the British. 1t is moi
| kuOWu ueIc liOLu WlLLt pOAnG tuc UIOOps
came, but it is presumed they were
from De Arr, in which event it will no
be long before Stormburg is also reoccu
pied. Naauwpoort commands the gal
il the Kikvorshberg, the last strong
fighting position south Of the Orange
river, and w2s admirably suited to Boe,
tactics. Colonel Royston's dispatci
from Ladysmith finally disposes of al
reports of another great British victory
there last Wednesday.
The latest direct news from Lady
smith strangely conflicts with the reit
Grated reports of tremendous battle!
and great British victories" Wednesday
and Thursday. Neither Of the message!
above referred to, though dispatched or
the days following the date of the al
legged fights, mention any great engage
ments nor Boer defeats. On the con
trary, both distinctly state that beyond
false alarm on Tuesday evening and {
little increased shelling Thursday and
Friday, causing little damage, every
thing was p rfectly quiet and the gar
rison was chatting under its enforced in
| activity.
