BoERs MOVING BACKWARD.
Invasion Southwark In Natal Seems
TO Have Spent It's Force.

London. Nov. 27.-For the moment
the .Boer invasion southwark in Natal
seems not only TO have spent its force
but to have developed into a retrograde
movement. though with forces so mo-
bile as those of the Beers. it is difficult
to surmise where they VIII appear next.

| Inns has arrived and has established
himself temporarily at the Richmond.
His family will join him here later.
He may not remain at the Richmond
after their arrival. but the matter is
not yet determined The senator says
he expects a very interesting session
of congress and looks for the consid-
Grafton of many important legislative
| problems. He believes that Repre-
sentative Roberts will retain his seat
| without difficulty, and will take an ac-
tive part in his behalf.
| The principal development of the
| Roberts case is the assertion on the
part of some prominent Republicans
| that they mean to make the congress-
mans expulsion a partisan question.
Several Republican leaders are exam
lining the case. 1t is said that the Re-,
publican caucus may take the matter
up on Saturday and pass some resolu-
ton on the subject.
Democrats Will Stand By Him.
It can be positively stated that if any
such course is taken, all doubt about
Mr.. Roberts retention in the house will
promptly vanish, for when it becomes
a partisan instead of a. question of al
legged religious principle, the Democrats
him. Mr.. Roberts said to The Herald
this evening that he did not intend the
question should be made a partisan
one, and that he believed he would be
supported in his right to a seat by a
number of the best lawyers in the
house. The Star tonight says:
Those who have the case in charge
are now pursuing their investigation in
new direction; that is, whether this
should be a, case against the represen-
talon in congress of the state of Utah
rather than a personal fight on Rob-
erts. This line of investigation was
recommended by member of the com
mittee which passed ON the act admit
ting Utah as a state.

well to see if Utah has not violated the
compact with the general government
when the territory was promising all

More than 100 wives of representa-
tives have signed a petition to their

The Ants Intelligcnce.

German physiology is attacking the
intelligence Of the ant. Professor Bethe
Of Strassburg thinks he has found q
purely materialistic reason for 5heir
recognizing each other. He cleansed
ants taken from one hill in solution
of alcohol, dipped them in decoction
made Of ants from another hill and
placed them in the strange hill They
were not attacked as Strangers even
when Of different color and conforma-
tion. On the other hand, ants treated
in this manner when put back in their
own hills were not recognized by their
tribe, but at once attacked and killed.
Professor Bethe infers from this that
ants must give out some liquid whose
odor guides them and that each colony
must have its own peculiar smell. He
goes further and assumes that the odor
emitted is different in going from and
returning to the nest His test was to
cut out section in an ant path and to
swing it half round circle till the ends
joined the path again directly opposite
their former position. When the ants
came to the break, they W ere complete
ly bewildered, but as soon as the Sec
tion was swung back into its original
position found their way again without
trouble.

An Empire of Savnxes.

There now remain only one people
and one little valley south of the equator
whose sovereignty has not been claimed
by some European power. 1t is the val
ley of Barotse, so 1T 60 miles wide,
north of Lialui. in South Africa
And the only reason why the Marotse,
who inhabit it, have preserved their in
dependence is that England and Fortu-
gal both claim it, and therefore the
work of ''civiliZation is at standstill.
1t may not he SO easy to conquer the
Marotse when the time comes, for they
are a tall, we'll set up race albeit yer }
black in skin. In manners they are
courteous and in bearing dignitied.
Every full blooded Niarotse is by birth
q chief and takes his place i'll the aris-
tocracy of the empire
The bare fact that he is IL Marotse in
sures the respect of the subscrvient
tribes; and us lie grows to manhood a
sense of superiority usually inplants in
the native the dignity Of self respect. -
