An Essn,p,~ of h1yaity.
New York, Nov. IA dispatch TO
the World from Escourt says: Trust
worthy information concerning the
actual state Of affairs In Ladysmith
comes from two civilians who arrived
to-day, having escaped from the be-
s'cgcd town by evading the British pa
,.o.s and stealing through the Bocr
lines. They say that both the town
and the British camp are completely
invested and that artillery firing back
and forth II continuous. The bonn
bardmcnt Is heavy, but Its effect In
represented to be- petty.
"The Beers are slightly superior In
strength, but the British forces main
tain n vigorous defense, fighting daily.
There were engagements ON three sides
OF Ladysmith last Friday. the accounts
OF which, previously received through
native runners (Kaifirgrams), were
greatly exaggerated. Gen. White
II ..... .s
"Active operations continued on sun
day. Gen. White requested Gen. Jou.
bert 10 permit the women. children and
non -combatant males to withdraw
from Ladysmi,h In order to escape
from the bombardment Gen. Joubert
replied by inviting them all to come
under the protection OF his guns In
Ismbulwana hills. but said he should
consider the men who accepted this
offer of security, having borne arms,
~ prisoners of war. The mayor OF
Lad ysmi,h called n mass meeting of all
the inhabitants on Saturday to coDsid'
or the proposition. The townsfolks
resolved to accept mo terms from the
enemy emphasizing that decision by
singing the national anthem with the
spirit characteristic Of the colony"
Buiisr's F,rst Move.
London. Nov. lit seems that Gen.
| Buiicr's first move will be- To free Gen.
White, thus somewhat departing from
the earlier plan credited To him Of ad-
vancing through the level country Of
the Orange Free State and southwest
ern Trnnsvaal. IL has been apparent
for some davs that the situation nj La
dysmith could not De- indefinitely pro-
ionged. and II II understood that in
formation has reached the government
to the effect that the quic,ccncc Of the
Beers will shortly be- changed by the
arrival Of the siege train from Pretoria
into determined attempt To deliver n
telling stroke.

 TIE following is the bill intro dueed by Harry Carpenter and vetoed by the governor for the foI- owing reasons:
 Council bill No. 92. This bill required the county superintendent of schools of Yuma county to pay from the general fund of h+ county to the trustees of school district No. of the town Of Yuma &620 50, but did not say for what purpose, nor direct in any way the disposition of the money. Investigation develop ed that the purpose of the bill was to Fettle certain indebtedness created on the part of school dis trict No. by its trustees at the time 1t was proposed to issue bonds for the erection of new school house, and it was originally intend sd that the indebtedness thus creat- ed would be paid from the proceeds of the sale ot the bonds. At an election the issuance of the bonds was defeated, and while it is un- fortunate that this unauthorized Indebtedness remains unsatisfed, to pay it out of the general school fund Of the county, making every dis trict in the county a contributor to school district No. 1 of Yuma, is So palpably wrong that it requires no comment, even If the debt was legal yn every way. This is especially true in view ofthe difficulty n keep lsg the schools open the usual time ascausQ 9f lnge{Fcieut funds,
