MAFEKING CLOSED IN.
ATTEMPT TO STORM THE PLACE ENDS
IN DISASTER FOR THE BOERS.

IN DISASTER FOR THE BOERS.
LONDON, Nov. 8-News has Just arriv-
ed from Mafeking showing that up to
October 25 the Beers continued the
bombardment, firing as many as 300
shells in thirty-six hours, though caus-
ing but little damage, and wounding
only four men.
That day they closed in all around
the town and made determined at
tempt to rush it. The garrison turned
out to a man and delivered terrific
rifle and Maxim fire, which speedily
stampeded the Beers, who were driven
over mines which exploded and scatter
ed them in all directions. 1t is believ-
ed al Mafeking that the enemy suffered
heavily and is not likely to make an
other attempt to storm the town.
Estcourt Natal, Monday, Nov. g.
The Natal field artillery left camp to-
day escorted by troops of the Imperial
Light Horse, Carbineers and Natal
police. The destination of the force is
unknown.
Firing was heard this morning in the
direction of ColensO, from which it is
believed the Beers have resumed the
bOmbardment of Ladysmith.
AS LONDON VIEWS IT.
THE SITUATION BASED ON THE RE-
PORTS RECEIVED AND SPECU-
LATION.
London, Nov. 8.-General Joubert,
| the latest advices would indicate, drew
in his horns after Fridays engage
ment and has since withdrawn the
/
only outposts on the line from Lady
occupied Colenso about the middle ot
last week retired without damaging
Bulwer bridge over the Tugela River
or the railroad as far north as the
village. of Nelthrope, seven miles
south of Ladysmith.
AT Escourt and Petermaritzburg the
defensive works have been greatly
strengthened within the past few days
and they are now safe against any Boel
force which General Joubert would a.
at the present juncture risk sending
against either town. Both are likely
to be strengthened before the end o
the week is out by further naval force
and even by the first detachment O
General Buffers army corps.
The situation looks brighter at Mafe
king, where the Beers are, apparently
disheartened at the unexpected resist
ance, large body of their force having
been detached to the south to assist il
the investment of Kimberley, aroun(
which the Gordon is drawing tighter
The Beers intend to make concentrat
ed effort to capture Kimberley and thai
arch enemy, Cecil Rhodes.
Further reports of the GroblerslOo
affair tend to confirm the statemen
that the British were successful. 4
Kaffir declares that fully 100 Boer
were killed on the hilltop by the linen
women" which is supposed to indicat
that the Gordon Highlanders were
there.

THE BOER WAR.
They Gain No Advantages and Suffer
Repulse at Ladysmith.

Colenso is small town south of
Ladyship, on the railroad from Lady
smith to Pietermaritzburg and Durham.
Estcourt is small place south of Co.
lenso. Bearing these facts in mind
will enable the reader to understand
better the following dispatches.
NO FURTHER ADVANCE.
The Daily Telegraph publishes the
following dispatch from Pietermaritz-
burg, dated Saturday evening:
"Since their occupation of Colenso
| the Beers have attempted no advance
further south. Estcourt is now becom-
ing strong and growing camp. Ma
jOr Wolfe Murray is in temporary com
| mand.
The enemy bombarded Colenso or
Thursday until sunset at the extreme
range of his nine centimeter Krupl
guns.
Confirmation was obtained of the re
port that General Schalkberger is thu
| Boer commander at Vryburg. 4
| general Boer advance is not though
probable.
"Means have been taken to secure
Pietermaritzburg against any possible
attack and also to relieve Ladysmitl
before the enemy can come farther.
WORK OF LYDDITE BATTERY.
Widespread rumors of both Dutcl
and native origin have been curren
since yesterday that, during a recon
naissance from Ladysmith northwar'
toward Mattawan's Hook and Nichol
sons Mex, the British troops engaged
the enemy. 1t is said that lyddit
battery drove the Beers into a valley
where the British cavalry charge,
through them. The Boer losses in thi
engagement are said to have reache'
200, the British losses being onl
about 100.
1t is fact that General Joubert DIRE,
in his line today, and that the Boer
now have only outposts at Colensc
Runners are bringing the name of tn

A RELIC OF COLONIAL DAYS.
A New England Indian Canoe That Is
Two Hundred Years Old.
CFrom the Boston Transcript


A very interesting relic OF the days when
life in New England was far from being
the peaceful, placid existence ii is today,
now floats on the lake which crewns the
summit Of Long Mountain in Otis The
relic is a dug g-out canoe eighteen feet IN
length hewn or burned from pine los-
Although its present owner, A. B. Heath,
estimates its age al over 200 years, II is
today perfect, save for slight signs of de-
cay along what might be termed its gum
vale. X was undoubtedly used BY MEM
bers OF the Pequabuck, Waramaug. or
Shinnedaug tribes OF Indians, who in CO.
lonial DAYS built their campfres and pitch
ed their wigwams amorg the hills OF wes-
tern Connecticut and Massachusetts, It
might even have carried the war-like Pc
quots, some of whom are known TO have
wandered into this region after their
crushing defeats by the colonists along the
coast. At any rate. it shows unmistaka-
bic marks OF Indian handiwork-
Mr. Heath found the canoe forty years
ago While tramping through the woods
he came upon it some little distance from
the shore so covered with moss and ferns
as to be almost unrecognizable. He launch
ed it on the lake, where il foated lightly.
Since then. year after year. it has served
the nineteenth century palefaces as fish
ing beat The lake, whose marshy shores
have wen II the unpieturesque name OF
Mud Pond lies in the midst of thick woods,
three miles from the nearest house II is
said 10 have been 2 fsvorite camping
ground for the New England tribes in
early days.

LABoRIoUs JOKING.
A Hotel Clerks Attempt TO BE Genial
Toward nm English Tourist.

From the New Orleans Times -DemooTat)
Talk about getting tired Of ths sunny
South gag" said the cigar stand man IN an
uptown hotel 1T was nothing at all tc
one I had to put up with while the cold
wave was waving Y'sea, there's very lit
tie room back here, and / have TO keep the
cash register on top OF the steam radiator
While the blizzard lasted the heat was Oh
ali the tire. day and night, and the regis
ter naturally got hot
SO I proceeded to dish out specially
warmed specie for change, and with that
my TROUBLES began. A customer would pick
up a coin, look surprised and then wink
the other eye.
Just made il. eh?' he would ask. And
OF course l was expected 10 make SONS
playful remark about having counterfeit
ing plant back of the cigar case.
After the jest had been handled 10 and
fro some 500 or 600 timss IL began TO get
slightly stale. bur each fellow thought il
was brand-new. and when / failed to grin
he set me down as stupid ass. ~ last
/ got desperate and concluded I'd anticipate
the blow. A big EnglishEan sauntered up
and. feeling certain he'd spring the joke l
got ahead OF him.
I just made this / said. handing him
a nickel that fairly sizzled. He looked
blank.
Ah-part OF your-er-pronts, L pre-
sume?' he replied.
No. says /. determined to make him
see the point or perish in the attempt. i

He frowned and pushed ii quickly
away. beg pardon he said. but really

that, doncher-know.'
Il tried TO make him understand that 1t
was simply Joke. for l don't know hoS
soon he might go TO the police about 1t.
But. pshaw, il was a hopeless job.

counterfeiting' he insisted.
Neither can l. / replied, and that S
exactly why made it, That happened to
be the actual truth, but il gave a final twist
10 the situation that hoored the English
man completely.
Then you consider it comic to get Oh
something comic because IL isn't actually
comic in the least, he repeated IN great
bewilderment. 'Pon my word, says he,
this American humor is too deep for me.
