NEW YORK. Nov, ga dispatch 4
the Tribune from London, says:
Long after midnight an official dis
patch was received at the war offic'
bringing news OF hattie fought b,
General Methuen at Belmont with th'
Free Staters, the result being a com
pIete victory for the Kimberly relief
column. General Methuen found the
Beers strongly intrenched and provided
with plenty OF guns.
The ground they chose to defend was
cleverly selected and In driving them
from their position the British troops
had to carry three ridges in succession
which seems almost a repetition Of the
battlefield Of Flands Laagte. The last
ridge was carried at the point OF the
bayOuet by the guards. The British
losses as officially reported were three
officers killed and p wounded; IS men
killed, $50 wounded and % missing.
The Beers lost heavily and 40 prison
ers were taken, besides a great guam
tity Of stores.
This victory is Of special importance
because it is the first blow dealt by the
British force acting purely on the Of
fensive and IS part OF the development
Of the British plan Of campaign.
II will doubtles open up the road 70
Kimberly. at all everts as far as the
Nodder river where the advance Of the
column will probably be again oppos-
ed.
Further details Of the fighting will
be anxiously awaited by the British
public although it is already clear that
the victory is decisive.
A dispatch is also at hand from Gen
eral Gatacre. who in reporting the lat
est disposition Of the British troops
makes omsnious mention Of the contin-
ued Dutch rising in the Broken Nail
district A party Of armed Dutch is
said to have left Cradock on the east
err line to Port Elizabeth TO Join the
Botrs taking armed natives with them.
General French who was reported toI
be moving east from De Aar has
found the Beers holding a strong po-
sition at Arundel a few miles north Of
Maauport. The British force withdrew
with three wounded.
There is no news from Estcourt, but
q rumor has reached Maritzburg that
General White has made a successful
sortie from Ladysmith, capturing some
Boer positions with guns and material
and inhicung loss on the enemy.

Why Low Vitality IL dangerous.

Low vitality, bad blood and shattered
nerves are the cause of a majority of
diseases that affect mankind. Nervous
exhaustion in both men and women is
the evil of the age, and tax the skill
of the greatest medical specialists. Or
binary practitioners make no serious
pretence to the successful treatment
of such cases. DR.. Greene, the leading
specialist in curing nervous and chronic
diseases, invites free consultation in all
cases of chronic and lingering COM
plants. DR.. Green is especially desir-
Gus of being consulted in cases that
others have failed to cure. His Office
is 80 West 18th Street, New York City,
and he makes no charge for consulta-
ton and advice. If it is not convent
ent to call write Dr. Greene a letter
describing your symptoms, and you will
receive a prompt and satisfactory re-
ply.

Tribute of Respect.

The last tribute of respect and love
that one brother who survives another,
can pay to the departed is to give vent
to those feelings which are born in the
human heart and only make themselves
known in the hour of distress. The
members of Wheeling lodge No. %, of
the Benevolent and Protective Order of
Elks have lost a brother in the sad
death OF Milton B. Mabis. We feel
that our loss is, however, overshadOwed
in the bereavement his immediate fam
lily have suffered. We condole deeply
with the stricken mother in the
hour of mental suffering and our fond
est hope is that she may find that the
lapse of time will to some extent at
least smooth the ragged edge of grief.
With her we sympathize most deeply.
AS to ourselves we will ever remember
our departed brother, as one who had
just attained the prime of his manhood,
and who with all of the prospects of a
life time before him was in the mys-
FERROUS doings of that Divine Provi-
dence, to which we bow in humble def
erence, called from this life. We will
remember him as a true gentleman and
an Elk in all that this implies, and to
the end that his virtues may be writ
ten on the tablets of our memory, we,
the members of this lodge of Elks low
ingly inscribe this tribute to him who
has gone.

THE WOMAN'S CLUB CONCERT.
A Comparatively Small Attendance at the
Recital. Last Evening


The open concert by the Woman's
Musical Club, at the music rooms Of
Milligan, Wilkin & Co., last evening,
attracted but comparatively small au-
dience. The programme embraced but
eight numbers, and one OF these was
necessarily omitted, owing to the in
disposition of Miss Vardy.
The opening number was ave
Marie" vocal, and Mrs. Flora Williams
and Misses Mary Vardy and Margaret
Harvey gave a faultless Interpretation.
The piano duet by Mrs. Ewalt and
Miss Ella Altmeyer showed many of
the beauties of Grieg's Norwegian
Bridal Procession" Miss Gertrude
Becker is one of the younger members
of the organization, and her vocaliza-
ton of Cantor's 20 Fair, o Holy Love, =
gave promise Of future accomplish
ments of a high order Misses Ella
Brice and Miss Amanda Spell well di-
vided the honors Of the evening as
piano soloists. Miss Bnice's number
was the Chopin Valse OPP. "a, No. /,
and her execution deserves the adjec-
tive splendid, it being a brilliant and
finished performance. Miss Spells in
depreciation of the GODDARD Mazurka
OPP. 81, entities her to the highest
