London, Dec. 12.-.rhc rcvcrses suf-
fcrel by General Gntacre at Storm
borg yesterday are regarded as another
case OF undcr.cstinntlon OF the cncmy's
forces and ability which has already
cost the British so much. The many
long forced marches 10y which Gatacrc
reached S,ormborg are characteristic
OF this commander. whom Ills men cnll
"Backachcr."
This sort of marching against Indian
AMI Egyptian troops was usually
crowned with sharp and brilliant sue
ccsscs. hut In the ease OF Boer fighting
II Is different. Gatacrc's troops were
not only surprised. but We're evidently
too fatigucd To Withstand the terrific
iirc which was poured over them.
The military expert OF the Morning
Post, who has followed the Bocr war
critically and dispassionntciy. warns
England OF the danger OF losing part
OF the empire through the parsimony
which Is displayed In the inefficient
forces with which she attacks the
lsocrs. This warning is the first hint
In amy British paper Of even the proba.
bility OF final defeat for England In
South Africa.

Gnincrc's casualties. his losses In miss.
at Nicholson Mex. being remarkably
disproportionaic to those " killed and
wounded.

A Revelation

Jacob Robinson, an old-time
plantation negro, who says he has
lived in Ocala eighteen years, told
q Star reporter yesterday that he
received ga revelation" about ten
days ago. His family was sick
with fever and in great distress.
He prayed for relief, when there
appeared to HIM a VISION which
told him to get a certain wood and
make of it tea, which would
cure any fever. He did so, and
gave the tea to his folks, who are
now we'll.
The revelation said be should
go out into the highways and by
ways and touch the suffering with
his tea and cure them. When
asked Wnat the wood was, he an
sWered: "Dat am de conundrum.' -

Imperial Minstrels

We clip the following from the
jackson, (Tenn). Daily Wing, of
January 6, 1899.
Negro minstrelsy pure and undefiled
was the Offering at Pythian opera house
last night. In the parlance of the gal
lery god it was hot stuff" The per
fOrmance last night was void Of eXtrava-
CANT stage setting and elaborate cos
tuning, but in its place were presented
genuine negro wit and ''nigger singing
such as is seldom seen in this age So
called ''latterday minstrelsy."
Taking into considerati n the fact
that the real aim and purpose of burnt
cork comedy should be the delineation
of negro character, the show last even
ing was pronounced and emphatic
success. To say the least it was fully
equal to any negro minstrel playing
here this season.
The Imperial Minstrels appear again
tonight, and if merit counts, the house
will be packed to the dome. Popular
prices prevail, the admission being %
and }5 cents
The Imperial Minstrcls will be
at the Marion opera house, Ocala

The Kaiser as a Talker.

We have had the German Emperor
from many points of view, even from
that of his barber. The latest pen
portrait is that of the shorthand writer.
William H., since he assembled the
throne, has always had shorthand re-
porter in attendance to take verba-
tim note of his speeches, and Herr
Karl Hempel has frequently acted in
that capacity. In sketch of his sub
ject he says that the Kaiser is easy to
report, for his voice is strong and his
articulation distinct. He only be-
comes difficult when he gets excited,
and on such occasions, though his
pronunciation is clear, he speaks with
