SummOning of Volunteers

London, Sept. SO.-Otficers at Wool
witch believe that an army corps will
be started for South Africa about Oc-
tober I, with Gen. Sir Redvers Butler.
There appears to be unusual excite
ment in the admiralty departments.
1t is rumored that unexpected compile
cations have arisen, and that extensive
preparations are to be made to guard
against contingencies. Indications
lead to the belief that, in view of the
message to be sent to the Transvaal,
which was agreed to at meeting OF
the cabinet yesterday, the Beers will
probably commit an overt act which
will bring on hos tilities before the as
sembling of parliament. All the latest
dispatches from the Transvaal show
the iveiest act witty on the part OF the
burghrs. kilograms from Pretoria
announce that artillery is being rap
idly loaded at the station from the
front and military trains have pref
erence on all lines. The Cape mail is
delayed in consequence of the large
amount of rolling stock reserved for
the forces
A large body of burghers left Thurs
day for the Natal border a nd another
for Middleburg. Detachments of cy-
clists are being distr ibuted among the
different commanders 1t is under
stood that the first contingent of the
Pretoria force will leave for the eastern
border to-day.
A dispatch to the Times from Preto,
ria, says: ut is generally expected that
a state Of war will be procl aimed at
any moment"

is impossible to act on the lines desired
without losing Independence"

Probably the saddest case Of this

She was evidently a beginner and
more than half afraid of the bicycle,
and when. in attempting to pass a
sprinkling cart, the wheel steered Itself
toward 1t she yielded to the bike and
rode directly against the rear Of the
cart. Notwithstanding the fact that
the sprinkling apparatus was in full
play and that she was almost enyelop-

loudly for help.
