Beers Repulsed.

The Times, of Natal, publishes
the following, dated November Is,
from it's special correspondent at
Ladysmith:
The enemy made a determined
attack on Thursday, November 9.
Apparently all their forces par
ticipated. Their artillery opened
at 4 a. M, pouring in shells thick
and fast upon the British position,
although with no great effect.
They adopted the unusual tactics
Of advancing under cover of their
guns to positions on the ridges
and kopjes adjacent to those occu-
pied by the British troops, on the
left of our camp.
The Boer attack was most Ella
borate on all sides of the town,
The main attack, however, Was
made between the Free State and
New Castle railway lines by a COM
pany composed wholly of Johan:
nesburg volunteers. A brigade Of
the Kings Rifles corps made a
splendid defense. The Beers were
repulsed, but soon rallied and re.
turned to the attack. Again the
British fire, which was very hot
forced them to retire. They haC
made deep trench in front Of the
Devils Lake inter-ocean. (Devils Lake, Ramsey Co., Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1905, 1899-11-24

British lines, and while waiting
for their horses they left this un-
guarded when the Kings Rifles, ad-
vancing at double quick, occupied
the trench. This smart movement
was not seen by the enemy. who
soon returned with the horses.
Carefully reserving their fire, the
Kings Rifles allowed the Beers to
advance almost to the edge of the
trench and then poured volley after
volley into the astounded Beers,
who turned and fed from an awful
hail of bullets, boiling across the
open, where the artillery of the
British poured in terrible and
effective shell fire. The enemy
lost heavily.
The fighting was all over at
l1:l5. Promptly at noon General
White ordered salute of twenty
one guns in honor Of the birthday
of the Prince Of Wales. AS the
cannon doomed, cheer after cheer
rang out from the troops and q
scene of enthusiasm, probably with.
out parallel in history followed.
All our men are fit, we'll and il
good spirits. 1t is reported tina
the lyddite is terrifying to thu
Beers, who have to be driven te
their gun positions by revolver
pointed at their heads.
Ladysmith is able to hold ou
for months. On the other hand i
is reported that dysentery is work
ing havoc in the enemy's camp.

Oakes Republican.


Chr. Gorder has fully decided to
remove his machine shop from
Oakes and locate the same in Devils
Lake. He made a trip to that city
a few days ago, and there he re-
ceived sufficient encouragement to
warrant him making the move.
Mr.. Gorder expects to be ready to
leave about the first of December.
Mr.. Gorder has been a resident
of Oakes for about ten years, COM
ing here from Minneapolis. Dur
ing that time he has been engaged
in the business Of running a ma
chine shop and making steam boil
ers. He is an expert workman,
but during the past few years has
not found sufficient work here to
warrant him remaining, Oakes
will be sorry to lose Chr. Gorder,

The following interesting figures
as to the closing Of navigation on
