LONDON, Sept ga dispatch to the
Daily Mail from Charlestown says:
Communicating is proceeding in the
Wakkerstrom district and probably
throughout the TransvaaL Two thou
sand burghers are assembled at Walk
kerstrom. which is eight miles from the
Natal border and eleven from Laings
Neck. Twelve hundred have been or
dered to Sandspail, thirteen miles west
Of the Natal border, where they Will
meet the Orange Free State artillery,
which has been lying low in this neigh
borhood for a fortnight.
The Pretoria correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says: THE Trans
vaal executives are absorbed in war
preparations. Many Beers oppose ag-
gressive action on religious grounds"
The Daily News, which appeals to the
Government to await President Kru-
gers reply before sending a second dis
patch. says: IF, as has been asserted
on behalf Of the Transvaal, all trouble
would have been avoided had Mr..
Chamberlain dispatch last Friday
said convention instead of 'cOnven-
-tfons.' we do not believe a British Cab
met would decline to clear the matter
up 1t is for President Kruger to speak,
If ii is indeed only matter OF a con-
sonant, for We are convinced that it is
in his power to get the consonant cut
off"
The Daily Chronicle says: I'VE un-
derstand, on the best authority, that
the delay attending the Boer reply is
due 10 hopes still entertained by the
Transvaal of peaceful settlement.
The Beers distrust Mr.. Chamberlain.
They fear that if they make conces-
sfnns ne will ONLY increase his demands.
Therefore. they have been trying to ap-
proach Lord Salisbury directly. They
trust the Premier as much as they dis
trust the Colonial Secretary and if
Lord Salisbury would give pledge

A BATTLE IMPENDING
CONSERVATION Prevails in the City
of Caracas, as the Enemy Is
Close to the Outskirts.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CARACAS, Venezuela, Sept. 2S.-Mar-
tin Sanavria, president of the Cassa-
ton Court; General Fonseca, Ortega
Martinez and others were banished yes
terday by the Government. Apparently
the. hostile forces are on the eve of a
great battle Negotiations for peace
have failed.
PORT OF SPAIN, Sept. 2S--A private
dispatch from Caracas reports that
President Andrade has left the Vene-
zuelan capital and is believed to have
gone to Porto Rico or New York. Gen
eral Castro's insurgent forces are
known to be within five miles of
Caracas. General Luciano Mendoza,
commander-in-c chief of the Government
forces, has only three thousand troops
with which to defend the approaches
from Castro's assaults.
Refugees in large numbers are arriv-
ing here by steamer. They report that
CONSERVATION prevails in Caracas. The
press censorship is exceptionally severe,
even mail matter being opened. Gen
eral Domingo Monagas, who has great
prestige in Barcelona province, prom
ised President Andrade troops from
Eastern Venezuela. He collected g con-
siderable army at Cumana, but on
landing at GUanta, in Barcelona, the
soldiers declared in favor of the revo-
luton, and are marching to form a
junction with Castro's forces.

riously they would venture upon it. We
regret TO say that this last effort has
been broken down, since Lord Sails
bury cannot go behind Nj. Chamberlain
without creating a Cabinet crisis.
ct is deplorable, nevertheless. that
state etiquette should be strong enough
to obstruct the path of peace. we
hope it is not true that Mr.. Chamber
lain intends to demand disarmament,
a heavy indemnity and the withdrawal
of DR.. Leyds, which could only result
in war"
The paper suggests that the Orange
Free State should appeal for arbitra-
ton under the arrangements con-
cluded at The Hague.
The Press Association issues the fol-
lowing statement this evening: We
learn that the centers of interest in the
Transvaal crisis are in reality at Lis
bon and Berlin, and this consideration,
it is thought in some quarters, may
cause a further adjournment of the
Cabinet.
The future administration and
financial control of the Portuguese
possessions in South Africa are held to
be an integral factor in the present
difficulty The friends of President
Kruger urge that it would be manifest
ly unfair to insist upon a partial re-
duction Of the forts at Pretoria and
Johannesburg so long as Lorenzo Mar
dues remains under the Portuguese
Government, and it IS probable that
the negotiations between London. Ber-
lin and Lisbon may not be concluded
until after the Cabinet council
The Odessa correspondent of the
Standard telegraphs rumor that
Germany recently suggested to Russia
the advisa bility of mediation between
Great Britain and the Transvaal and
that Russia declined to have anything
to do with the matter.
WELLINGTON, N. H.. Sept. 2S.-The
Government of this colony decided to-
day TO equip and send a force of 200
men to the Transvaal The House

stables up to December 81, 1898, and was

mittee's report. They approved Bishop
Potter's views and expressed themselves
as glad and thankful that the Bishop

greatest evils of the home.

A Letter From Mrs.

Chicago. Nov. y. 1899.

Chicago, Nov. %, 1899
Dear Sir: DR.. Dewey's visit TO the
Islands last summer and his course OF
lectures in the University Extension
work are well remembered by many OF
your readers. The school known as
the University Elementary School was
organized by him and has also been
guided by him ever since its inception.
a book entitled School and Society
embodies the aim of the movement,
and has just come out. I enclose an
editorial on it, taken from the Record,
which is far from being in active SYM
pathy with the University, and this
fact gives especial value to the clip
ping Hoping you can find room for
it at an early date.
Believe me,
Yours very truly,
MABEL WING CASTLE.

Simplicity of Science.

Science is always simple. It's only
quackery that juggles with jargon
Medical treatment of the past dealt
with ''simples," the pure vegetable
remedies provided by Nature. Sagwa
is compounded of simples. 1t is purely
vegetable. 1t is scientific, because il
is based on the known curative prop
critics of the herbs, roots, barks and
gums which it contains. It is the most
efficient blood purifier and blood build
er known. Ninety per cent of diseases
begin in the blood, and 80 per cent OF
diseases are durable by the prompt and
proper use of Sagwa. 1t expels from
the blood all the corrupting and cor
roding elements and builds up a new
body with new blood. There is no sub
stitute for Kickapoo Indian Sagwa.
