WHITES GOOD ROLLING.
Kettell Defeated in a To-
String Game at the
Hancock Alleys.

The first individual candlepin match of
the season was rolled at Hancock alleys
last evening, A. Frsd White and Frank
j. Kettell contrasting for 10 continuous
strings. White, who twice defeated his
opponent last season in a similar match,
repeated the trick last evening, winning
by 81 pins. He made a total of 1885, aver
aging $50 pins to a game. As new pins
were used in the match the score is an
excellent one and shows that White is
rolling in as good form as he did last
year when he won the championship of
the club at this style of bowling.
White took the lead in the first game
with an ordinary string and was never
headed. His opponent rolled very poorly
In his opening string but picked up and
in the last half rolled a stronger game
than White despite a single of 102 by the
latter White made two strikes and seven
spares in the match and Kettell nine
spares. Good fortune attended White in
the fifth string. When the game started,
White led his opponent by SO pins Ket-
tell was the first to finish and put up a
string of IS. In the eighth box White was
nine pins behind the score of his oppon-
eht in the corresponding frame, and 1t
looked like Kettells string. In the ninth
box, however White opened with a strike
and in the 10th got a spare which gave
him total of IL pins over Kettell in that
string alone. White won six strings and
kettell three, the men being tied with IS
on the second string.

the past have made it sufficiently clear
to us that we can not rely on the most
solemn promises and agreements of
Great Britain, when she has at her
helm government prepared to tram
pie treaties, to look for feigned preteXts
for every violation of good faith by
her committed. This is proved among
other things by the unjust and unlaw-
full British intervention after we had
overcome an armed and barberous
black tribe on our eastern frontier, as
also by the forcible appropriation Of
the dominion over part of our territory
where the discovery of diamonds had
caused the desire for this appropria-
ton, although contrary to existing
treaties
For years past, British troops in
great hunters have been placed on the
frontiers of our sister republic in order
to compel her by fear to accede to the
demands which would be pressed upon
her, and in order to encourage revolu-
plans of those whose greed for gold is
the cause OF their shameless undertake
ings.
These plans have now reached their
climax in the open violence to which
the present British government now re-
sorts. While we readily acknowledge
the honorable character of thousands
OF EnSilSnmen who lOathe such deeds
of robbery and wrong, we canot but
abhor the shameless breakings of trea-
ties, the feigned pretexts of the trans
gression Of law, the insulation of inter-
national law and of justice, and the
numerous rlght-rending deeds of the
British statesmen who will now force
war upon the South African republic.
On their heads is the guilt of blood,
and may just providence reward all
as they deserve
'Burghers of the Orange Free State,
rise as one man against the oppressor
and the violator of right. In the
strife, TO which we are now driven,
have care to commit no deeds unwor-
thy Of a Christian and of a burgher of
the Orange Free State. Let us look
forward with confidence to a fortunate
end of this conflict, trusting to that
higher power without whose help hui
man weapons are of no avail. Nav
he bless our arms. Under his banner
we advance to battle for liberty and
for fatherand.

sTEYN's CALL TO ARMS.
Ringing Appeal to Orange Free State
to Resist the Oppressor.

New York, Nov. 6.-The consul gem
eral of the Orange Free State in this
city gave out today the full text of
President Steyn's proclamation to the
Free state Beers to support the Trans
vaal. The proclamation read in part
as follows:
"Burghers of the Orange Free State
The time which we had so much de-
sired to avoid the moment when we
as a nation are compelled with arms
to oppose injustice and shameless
violence, is at hand. Our sister re-
public to the north of the Vaal river
is about to be attacked by an unscru-
pulous enemy, who for many years
has prepared herself and sought pre-
texts for the violence of which she is
now guilty-whose purpose it is to de-
stroy the existence of the Afrikander
race.
With our sister republic we are not
only bound by ties of blood of sym
pathy and of common interest, but
also by formal treaty which has been
necessitated by circumstances This
treaty demands of us that we assist
her If she should be unjustly attacked,
which we unfortunately for a long time
nave had too much reason to expect.
We therefore can not passvely look
on while injustice is done her and
while also our own dearly bought free
dom is endangered but are called as
men to resist. trusting the Almighty
firmly believing that He will never
permit injustice and unrighteousness
to triumph.
Our own unfortunate experiences Ii

PLURALITY OF $500.

Portland, Me, Nov 6.-Amos L. AL
len, republican candidate for congress,
in the first Maine district, was elect
ed today by majority of more than
1890 votes over Luther F. Mckinney,
the democratic candidate. With the
town Of Dayton, in York county, to
hear from. Mr.. Aliens majority is 1857.
Dayton will doubtless change it, but not
enough to bring 1t below 1900
The first Maine district was Speaker
Reeds district last year. He had ex-
Congressman Mckinney as his oppo-
>nent AT that time Mr. Reeds plural
ity was 5526 over his opponent, but
there was a prohibition candidate who
polled 673 votes, thus reducing his ma
jority to 1891.
There were only two candidates this
year, but 1t is evident from spoiled bal
lots that considerable number of pro-
hibition voters made the mark in the
prohibition square. although they had
no candidate. Last year the total vote
in the district was 23,670. This year
it amounts to less than 100000 A small
vote is always expected in an off year,
and especially in an off year special
election
Congressman elect Allen is known in
national life as Speaker Reeds secre-
tary for many years. Otherwise, he
was not prominent figure, even in his
own state and neighborhood.

Bayliss, composing the board Of COM
missioners of the National Lincoln
monument, today let the contract for
the restoration of the monument here to
the Culver Construction Company, it's

work viii begin at once on the restora-

A temporary hall for the keeping of
the trophies, now in the monument,
will be built. Just what disposition
will be made of the bodies of the presi-
dent, his wife and son Tad Lincoln,
has not been decided upon. Probably
a temporary vault will be erected and
a Waterman employed to guard it.
State Superintendent of Public In
struction Bayliss in speaking of the con-
tract, said:
THE monument when completed will
be as near like the present one as pos
sible. Every piece of material now in
the monument found available will be
used. The shaft will be about Is feet

A BRITISH SUCCESS.
Thirty Mounted Beers Captured a
Tathan's Farm.

Estcourt, Nov. A reliable messen-
ger has just arrived from Ladysmith,
passing the Boer lines during the night,
who reports that heavy fighting oc-
Cured Thursday around Ladysmith.
The hottest engagement was on George
Tathams farm, on the Orange Free
State side of Bester's. The British
drove the Beers back from their camp.
The enemy suffered great loss and 80
mounted Beers were captured.
A large Boer force with artillery under
John Vessels, has taken up position
on the left of Beacon, locating on the
Woodhouse, Picciones and Langvracht
farms, facing Besters, and a small
command is now encamped on the
south side of Peters station command
ing the railway. The Beers have torn
up the culverts of the railway near
Peters station and have burned the
wooden portions. No, damage has vet
been done at Colenso.
The houses, stores railway and iron
bridges remain intact. The messenger
says he heard that the Beers would be
in Colenso today and that the volun-
teers were leaving. Much regret is felt
at the unnecessary alarm being created
at Maritzburg, when there is no need
for it. The Natal naval corps, with
guns, will return to Maritzburg today
to reassure the inhabitants

Beers BIG BOASTS.
They Claim to Have Been Victorious
in Most CT the Engagements.

Cape Town, Nov. GA dispatch from
Maseru, Basutoland, dated Friday eve
ming, says that the magistrate Lag
denis warning that interference with
the Basutos would cause an uprising
The Beers have been letting Basutos
across the river into Basutoland. The
natives, however, continued to com
plain that they were being robbed of
their savings by the authorities.
There is no Disgusting from the ma
tives that the British suffered a reverse
at Ladysmith and it has been explain
ed to the Europeans as a mere incident
of the war and they are regarding ii
as insignificant. 1t was thought better
that everybody should know the truth,
the dispatch adds, and not follow the
republics methods of concealing re-
verses from the Europeans and the Ba-
sutos, who have implicit faith in the
imperial government.
The fighting on October % is claimed
by the Beers to have been a brilliant
Rcer victory, and they say that at
Elandlaagte the British fled, and at
Ladysmith the Beers retired because
they had expended their ammunition.
The Beers also assert that Gen. White
was killed and that documents were
found on his body. Certain residents
of Colesburg are freely communicative
with the Boer force across the river.
