FOUND BY ROHN.
MADISON MAN MAKES IMPORTANT
ALASKAN DISCOVERIES.
Finds the Headwaters of the Copper
and Tanana Rivers-Crossing
a Glacier
Madison. Nov. 81

Madison, Nov. 81.
Oscar Rohn of Madison, who during
the past two years has been in Alaska
with government exploring party, has
returned home for a visit and has an
interesting story to relate of his dis
coveries and adventures. Last sum-
mer Mr.. Rohn and a companion ex-
plored the unknown region about the
sources of the Copper and the Tanana
rivers and discovered the headwaters of
both these streams, which had not
been found until searched out by him.
Mr.. Rohn acted as topographer for the
military exploring party under Capt.
w. R. Abercrombie which was then
surveying new route through Amer
lean territory from Port Valdez 10
Eagle City, a distance of 400 miles.
While in this work the party found a
new pass leading from the coast to the
headwaters of the Yukon and over this
pass the government is now building a
road to Eagle City. The pass is LOO
feet high and is called the Lone River
pass. This is now the all-American
route and is in big demand. Andrew
Holman, Madison man, who two
years took party of 40 Scandi-
anvians to the Copper river country,
has the mail contract for this route.
the most of his men being now en-
ployed by the government in various
Mr.. Rohn decided to try to find the
headwaters of the copper river last
summer, it being supposed great beds
of copper existed there He had much |
difficulty in getting anyone to accom-
pany him as the country was entirely
unknown and of very forbidding ma
ture. 1t was believed by many that
the Copper river flowed from under a |
great glacier behind which it was i'm
possible to get. Mr.. Rohn and a young
set out to cross the range
the source of the river. |

LAWTON AFTER AGUINALDO,
But the Willy Filipino Cannot Be
Located.

Manila, Nov. 19.-The first reports
from Lawton's columns in three days
say he is on the road between San
Nicholas and San Manuel, west of Ana
go river. The swollen rivers prevented
him from reaching Wheaton. Major
Swigert, with two troops of the third
cavalry, met with heavy resistance at
Pozzorubia. He believes Aguinaldo is
there. Young is at Santa Ana. Col
onel Vessels scattered battalion met
the insurgents near Santa Ana Thurs
day and killed four Filipinos and cap
tured fifteen, without loss. Thirty-six
guns were taken. The balance of the
twenty-second regiment had skirmish
at Matabelan bridge, near Rosales
The people Of Rosales welcomed the
Americans. Slaven's scouts reached
Paranque, north Of Tarlac, and found
four locomotives wrecked and thirteen
cars sound. Macarthur is at Corona,
where the troops were welcomed by the
people.

London, Nov. 21.-Reports of heavy
fighting at Ladysmith last Wednesday
have not been confirmed. On the con-
trary the most reliable adVlces from
Estcourt indicate that there is nothing
more than a desultory cannonade. Be
yond the fact that the beers are daily
receiving fresh reinforcements and
supplies, there is practically nothing
new from the front. The bOer invasion
of Cape Colony continues steadily and
rapidly. There are 1900 beers at
Colesberg, and news is that Lady
Grey, near Aliwal North, has been de-
serted by the British and is now in the
hands of the enemy. A Pretoria dis
patch declares that the British on Sun
day made two unsuccessful attempts to
GUST Rustenberg, the boer commander,
from a position near Mafeking and that
severe fighting took place. From Del
agoa bay comes reports of the arrival
of more German officers and artillery
men who volunteered to serve with the
Transvaal forces. There is an uncon-
firmed rumor that more troops have
been ordered from India to the Cape.
The plan of operations on both sides is
slowly unfolding itself. Gen. Joubert
is evidently moving south to prevent,
if possible, the junction of the British
relieving force with the forces at Est
court and Ladysmith, while on the
Orange river the border beers are
believed to be concentrating at Donker-
poort to oppose General Buffers adj
vance 1t is said 5000 beers have al
ready laagered at DonkerpOOrt. The
English plan seems to be three-fold, tC
advance from Durham to LadySmith
from Orange river to Kimberley and
from East London to BurgherdOrp
The debarkation of troops at Capetown
is proceeding in a most satisfactory
manner Over 1850 railway carriages
have been collected for the conveyance
of troops northward and there is talk
of suspending the suburban traffic sc
as to accelerate military work. The
Daily Chronicle says: 1--WE find sus.
picions that some of the meat supplied
to the government for use on British
transports was meat which had beer
rejected by the United States during
