ADJUSTMENTS.

The Elleford Company played at the
Opera-house last night Oliver Doud
Byron's melodrama "Ten Thousand
Miles Away" 1t was well played-but
such a drama, the yellowest of the
yellows; the oldest mixture of men,
women and things in a social plot with
out head, feet or body, that ever hui
mainly saw. What it was all about;
why things were as depicted; why the
villain was rascal and the hero a
gallant man, no one knew, and just
what business a third of the charac-
tiers had in the play no one found out,
or ever will. The piece Is incoherent

a Hollander who is consul general for the
and consul for the Netherlands.
Pott is the principal Medium between
Pretoria and DIR. Leyds in Europe. He
controls the Netherlands railroad through

Transvaal customs. He is also head of
the Dutch East Africa and has
the ear of the Portuguese governor as We'll

hours before others what is happening.
About him gather all the other consuls.
the Portuguese officials and the German

Capetown, Dec. 2S.-Colonel Reescard,
commanding the Canadian contingent of
troops, is to join the staff of Butler, all
members of which are proceeding to Ma
tai, indicating that Buffers sphere will
shortly be confined to Natal.
A man named Green, a former sergeant
major of the British balloon department,
is among the Boer prisoners captured at
Magersfontein. Green, who deserted
from Aldershot in 1898, admitted he had
been some time in the service of the
Beers and had instructed them in in
trenching. He say there We're $4,000
Beers at Magersfontein, q 1000 of whom
We're engaged the day of the battle. The
Boer losses, he asserts, We're heavy, the
trenche being full of dead. Green fur
Their declares that if the attack had been
pressed the Beers would have yielded.
He says the Boer horses have to be taken
to Modder river as water is SO scarce at
Magersfontein.

and departed. An hour or so later the
druggist discovered that his assistant had
changed the bottles about on the shelf,
and in the cleaning he had mistaken
the laudanum for the paregoric bottle,
with the result that he had given the
farmer a dose of that deadly drug suffi-
clent to kill three ordinary men. 1t was
too late to rectify his error, and how
he got through that night and the fol-
lowing day the druggist could never re-
member. Nothing happening, however,
he began to breathe more freely by Mon
day. although every time the store door
opened he expected the sheriff to enter
and arrest him for murder. He didn't
uare to make any inquiries, though. and
TINS added to his suspense. Tuesday came
along, and about noon the door was filled
With the mammoth form of the farmer,
and the druggist was so glad to see him
that he said afterward he could have
kissed him. The farmer said: Joel, what
was that there stuff you gave me Sat

was all l could do to keep awake until
l got home. and when l did so to sleep
l didn't wake up again until the next

STRONG MAN.

New York Tribune: "The present pois-
on murder trial in this city," said George
r.. Fletcher of Chicago, at the Waldorf
Astoria, 'reminds me of a mistake a
druggist made n upon a time in my
native town in Maine. There used TO be
a family living OF a farm about four
miles out, the head of which was known
throughout the country side on account Of
his p%rodigious and remarkable physical
strength. l can just remember seeing
him as a small boy. and so enormous
was he that he scared me almost to
death. All sorts of stories of his feats of
strength survive there to this day; how
unaided he pulled a horse out of a 10
foot hole into which he had fallen; how
he held up a heavily loaded wagon on
his back while a broken wheel was re-
placed, and many others. One Saturday
afternoon about dusk he came into the
druggists, and complaining of a tooth
ache, asked for something to ease the
pain. The druggist fixed him up a dose
of what he supposed was p%aregoric,
which the farmer swallowed on the spot

formation that it was the shipment prin-
cipaNy which caused the British warships
to take action. Therefore the advice and
opinions of specialists in international
is being sought by shippers regard
ing flour as a contraband of war.
The New York agents of the milling
mpa admitted hat their entire ship
ment on the three steamers for Delagoa
bay was consigned to merchants in Jo-
hannesburg, although they disclaimed
any knowledge of it's being intended for
use by the Roer government.
a. J. ToGney. one of the milling ccln-
pany's agents.. said that they were not
certain whether their shipment had been
seized or that the vessels had simply been
warned away from Lorenzo Marques. In
either case. he said, his company was left
in a peculiar predicament owing to the
fact that the various papers dealing With
the shipment had gone by mail to Jo-
Harrisburg houses and could not be re-
covered Immediately. w have no other
shipments in transit to Delagoa fortu-
nately, and under the circumstances it is
not likely that we will have said Mr..
Toomey.

question. The value of our entire ship

1t consisted of ordinary merchandise. We
are confident that the British govern
ment, whatever disposition it makes of
the goods will pay we'll for them, as 1
do not think it will put needless obstacles
in the way of American merchants. The
chief Importance of this matter. of course,
lies in it's relation to international law"

Maine Heroes Buried,

Washington, Dec. 2s.-The remains Of
$50 victims of the Maine disaster. brought
from Havana by the battleship Texas,
were buried today with full military
honors upon a knoll in Arlington ceme-
terry. The exercises We're exceedingly
simple. They We're in charge of Capt.
Sigsbee, now of the Texas. who was cap
tain of the Maine on that fateful night
when the ship was blown up in Havana
harbor two years ago.
They We're attended by President Nc
Kinley and the members of the cabinet,
Admiral Dewey, Maj. General Miles and
his staff and many other officers of the
army and Navy stationed in Washing
ton. Among them We're Lieut.. Conn
mander Wainwright and Lieut.. Bowers,
both of whom who were on the Maine
when the explosion occurred. All the
army and navy stationed in Washing
form. Several troops of cavalry from
Fort Myer, a battalion of marines from
the navy yard and a detachment of sail
ors from the Texas were drawn up about
the flag draped caskets which We're
ranged row on row along the brow of the
hill, each bearing a beautiful wreath of
galaX leaves.
Despite the snow and nipping cold, over
a thousand spectators pressed against
the rope enclosure to witness the cere-
monies. The marine band played the
dirge Safe in the Arms of Jesus and
