BULLER TO THE RESCUE.

There is a great deal Of anxiety In
England over General Whites predica-
ment at Ladysmith. They hope for the
best, but fear the worst. But every
thing, they feel, depends on Buffers
arrival. Major James Douglas Ora
ham, an English officer on a furlough in
this country, says of the British COM
mander: General Butler is a man of
the stamp of your Grant-first of all,
an aggressive fighter. He is disliked
heartily at home. officers under him
have never liked him; 1 don't myself.
He is to have free hand in Africa,
however. He IS not so much a strate-
gist as a hammer and anvil. He cares
nothing for mems lives, so he gains his
point. God pity the Beers if, defeated
in battle, their lines become broken.
Personally, I would like to have seen
a more rnagnanimous commander in
South Africa, but his worst enemy can
not deny that Butler is tremendous
fighter"
Why should British officer desire
TO be magnanimous TO the Beers, when
our own republic-reared imperiaIists
are praying for the determination of
the Dutch peasants and the destruction
of their South African republic?
Is the major a British copperhead, or
do they actually allow people to ex-
press themselves freely in Great Brit
ain without accusing them of treason?

Forest preservation is destined to be-
come a farce if. after all that has been
said and written enacted into laws and
given to government police in the way
of instructions. the commercial cutting
of timber is to be permitted under any
conditions. 1T is proposed" we read
by the National Park association to
allow the cutting of timber on the Min

From the Spanish Armada.
OonGon News.)


A few days ago the crew Of a trawler
engaged in lobster fishing near Kinsale
had great difficulty in getting their anchor
aboard, which was firmly fixed in some
massive hard substance in the sandbank.
With great trouble they succeeded in
bringing to the surface a very ancient
anchor of five tons in weight, the shank
being over ten feet in length and the
bend of equal proportions. with a small
antique cannon attached thereto. The
anchor, which probably belonged to one
of the ships of the Spanish Armada.
which was wrecked on this coast, must
have been embedded in the sand for up
ward of three centuries. and 1t is covered
with marine matter which, in the course
of centuries. has been converted into a
hard. rocky, fossil substance. The anchor
is, of course. considerably worn, but 1t
still presents a very massive appearance,
and must have belonged to a large ship
II has been brought TO the lower slip OF
the Kinsale pier, where 1t is at present.
and is an object of the very greatest in
fereSt and curiosity.

The arrest of a big gang of outlaws
in New York City is looked on as a
matter of course. The fact that they
were women, loaded down with re-
volvers. brass-knucks, masks and
plumber, excited little comment. If
such a lot of desperadoes should be
rounded up in some western state the
eastern press would express more
horror than it did over the Corbett-
t1tzsimmons glove contest in Nevada
All these things that appear so awful
in the far west attract little notice in
the far east. After all, this is to the
credit of the so-called wild and woolly
land of the setting sun.

gratitude; but most numerous were
those of King Philip ", with almost

he gives to the life. There was the
greatest variety in his treatment of
portraiture-half lengths, three-quar-
ter lengths, full figures, equestrian por-
traits. The figures at times stand out
against a pure tone, at times against
a drapery, and often are in the midst
of a delightful landscape in hunting or
riding costume, and perhaps with IA

masterpieces, such as the Don Balta-

ADJUSTMENTS.

Conditions were reversed at Salt
Lakes play-houses last night. The
Grand had the sort of farce-comedy
which is usually seen at the Salt
Lake theatre, and the Theatre had the
melodrama which has heretofore usu-
ally been witnessed at the Grand 1t
followed, also, that the audiences were
changed about in a like manner, and
the Grand was full, while the Theatre
had but a moderate attendance and
was top-heavy.
''7i" is the sort of a melodrama
which was invented before the days
of great scenic effects. It is of the
good old-fashioned kind which is COM
plete in itself without mechanical aid,
and has for its formula the triumph of
virtue and the downfall of villainy
Nj. a. w. Fremont, the star, holds
persistently to the center of the stage,
and delivers his lines in a manner best
described as STACEY" He carries out
the idea of heroism by using a louder
tone of voice than his fellows, and by
ramrod like bearing in the face of
unjust accusation 1t NAV be said
that he is admirably suited to the sur
roundings and play. The leading
woman is Miss Leona Lindstead, who
likewise INDUCES in a series of heroics.
The other members of the cast did
what was required of them. which,
fortunately, was not much. The play
is distinctly out of its element at the
Salt Lake theatre, and although popu-
lar prices in a measure lowered the
standard of the house for this en-
gagement. still ''7711'' did not find its
proper level.
That rollicking farce MY Friend
From India" found great favor at the
Grand last night, and caused one con-
tinuous roar of laughter. The farce
still is able to maintain its reputation
as one of the funniest ever written.

and there is no doubt that the engage
mept will be a big one at the Grand.

Charleston, S. c., oct. Lawrence
Brown, an innocent negro, was accused Of
incendlarism in Orangeburg countyin 1897,
and discharged by request of the prosecu-
tor and was subsequently lynched at Sill
ton station.
Under the clause of the new state con-
stitution and subsequent legislative acts,
the father Of Brown sued the county of
Orangeburg for $4,000 damages. It was
The first case under The new law and at
tracted very general attention throughout
the country. At the first trial in Septem-
ber 1898, the verdict was for the defendant
county. the judge holding that the act only
applied in cases where prisoners were talk
en- from officers and lynched.
The state Supreme Court reversed this
opinion and the case was called again in
court at Orangeburg yesterday. The tes-
timony proving the lynching was over
whelming though one Q he countys law
vers in spite of the fact that Brown S
body was rfddled with bullets and his
hands and feet tied, claimed that the negro
had committed suicide
The jury in half an hour returned a
verdict in favor of the county.
Notice has been given of a motion to set
aside the verdict on the ground that II is
a miscarriage of justice and the presiding
Judge Gage viii doubtless so order. and
his act will be approved by the best c.ti-
zens of Orangeburg county.
