THE QUEENS PRIVATE MUSEUM.
Some of the Curious Things Victoria
Has Got Together at Windsor Cas-
From Tit-Bits,


There is at Windsor castle a private mu-
scum. which is of very recent date and
in the formation of which her majesty
has taken an immense amount of interest
its treasures are in many cases of unique
value, both from their associations and
their intrinsic worth.
In 1896 some workmen engaged in clear
ing out set of apartments that had long
remained unused, and which were situated
in the tower, came upon some old lumber
as they imagined it to be- ina passage
which was quite blocked up with it. On
closer examination however, the "lunl-
ber' turned out to be collection of most
interesting relics. whose very existence
had been forgotten for generations.
Her majesty took great interest in the
find, and in conjunction with the inspect
or, conceived the idea of making a pri-
vate museum for these and similar treas
ures in the lower vestibule, an apartment
near the equerries' entrance on the ground
floor.
1t was just at this time that Sir Herbert
Kitchener now Lord Kitchener of Khar-
toum, paid a visit to Windsor, on the con-
clusion of the Dongola expedition. 1897
He brought with him several trophies Of
the campaign which the Queen promptly
ordered TO occupy the hrst case of her
new museum. These treasurers consisted
of Wad Bishara's red banner, with its
tin rattle, which was captured a the bat
tie of Firket; also a crusaders sword
found In his house, and with a Spanish
motto in Roman characters, which says
DO not sheathe me without honor" In
this case. too, the Queen has placed the
Afghan trophies presented to her by LORD
Roberts ten years previously
The second contains several notable ar
ticles, chief of which is fine specimen
of executioner's ak, which has evidently
seen great service, and wich was given

Although the usual water supply of the
town was cut off. there was ample water for
the needs OF the town.
A small body of Beers approached Kim
berly on Wednesday and Major Chamier
made sortie with reconnoitering party
and some guns on board an armored train.
After few shots had been exchanged, the
burghers fled precipitately. There were no
casualties on the British side.
The police garrisons OF Fourteen Streams
and Taunms have arrived at Kimberly.
Everything tends to confirm the statement
that Col Baden-Powell temporarily worsted
the Beers at Mafeking, and It appears true
that upwards of three hundred wounded
Beers have arrived at Johar nesburg. The
Beers, however. appear to have reoccupied
the scene of the lighting. as an attempt to
recover the bodies of the British failed
owing. 1t is alleged, TO the Beers refusing
TO recognize the Red Cross flag.
The news from Glencoe aroused immense
enthusiasm among the British residents of
Cape Coloney. and this is rapidly spreading
to Basutoland, where 1t is feared it will
further infiame the desire of the natives to
participate in the operations against the
Beers.

LONDON, Oct. 21-The stirring develop

that wearisome period of procrastination
and suspense which preceded the outbreak
of the war. though Parliament has quickly
and dramatically sanctioned the momentous

worthy Of the name has been fought, and

in this century, is now on the way. bent
upon administering an eternal quetus to

other striking points in an epoch

LONDON, Oct. a.-The earliest dispatches
regarding yesterdays battle conveyed the
idea that the whole affair was over in a
couple or hours, the British artillery silenc-
Ing the Boer guns and infantry and then
simply charging right over the hill. Accord
ing TO the latest advices, however, the bat
tie lasted eight hours, and nearly seven
hours elapsed before the last Boer gun was
put out of action. The Irish Fusileers and
the Kings Rifles, meanwhile, had advanced
to the assault and were shooting their way
up the hill, driving the Beers back from
shelter until the final rush OF the British
carried them to the summit. 1t was bright
clear morning, which enabled the staff off,

their fire.

guns was an immense help, and the success
Of the assault was greatly due thereto An
enormous quantity of ammunition was ex-
pended. Once the British bayonets showed

not object to the appointment of a re-

Judge Napton's decision was in part as
follows:
The lien of $50, 900 on the company's
property is a prior lien on all the real es-
tate owned by it. While this realty has
been attached, together with the personal
property, in the suit of MacCallum &
Cloutier for $4,475 and that of the Butte
Hardware company for $3.50, the lien
would stand prior to these claims. so the
attachments are good only for the per-
n property, which is considerable.
This personal property embraces a large
amount of gold on the plates, a great deal
of unnlilled ore, machinery, a quantity of
wood and other articles.
