THERE are but two ways to stop your
paper. One is to come up like a man
and say, "Stop my paper" giving your
reasons. The other way is to notify the
Office by letter or postal card, signing
your name. We have no authority to
stop a mans paper on account of an
anonymous letter. It would be injustice

BoER OFFICIAL REPORT.
Battie Of Juaeia River Described By
General Sehaikberaer.

General Sehsikberaer.
Pretoria, Dec. 25.-The official
account of the Boer casualties at
the battle OF Tugela river says that
thirty men were killed or wounded.
General Schalkberger's report of
this battle was dispatched from the
head Lager on December 16, and
says: Friday at dawn the long
expected arrived. The Pretoria de
tachment gave the alarm. General
Buller's Eadysmith relief column
in battle array was advancing on
the Boer position close TO Tugela
and Coienso. The center consisted
of an immense crowd of infantry
fianked on each side by two bat
teries with strong bodies Of caval-
ry supporting. The Boer artillery
preserved absolute silence not dis
closing their position. The two
batteries came within rifle distance
of our foremost position and the
Beers then opened fire with deadly
effect. Our artillery also COM
menced aud apparently, absolutely
confused the enemy. who were al
lowed to believe the bridge was
open for them to cross. Their
right flank in the meantime attacked
the Boer's southmost position. But
the Mauser rifle fire was so tre-
mendous that they rolled back like
spent wave, leaving ridges aud
ridges of dead and dying humanity
behind. Again the British advan.
ced to attack but again fell back,
swelling the heaps of dead. The
cavalry charged to the river where
the Ermolo command delivered
such a murderous fire that two
batteries of caunon had to be
abandoned, which the Beers are
going to bring here. Twice the
British essayed to bring the
cannon away. The first time
they succeeded in hitching onto one
cannon and on the second trial the
horses and men fell in a heap.
Then the British were in a fall re
treat to their camp from whence
they sent heavy shraPnel fire on
the Bulwer bridge, across the Tu-
gela to prevent the Burghers from
recovering the cannon. The French
attache, Villebys, and tie German
attache Braun, say the Eight could
not have been improved upon by
the armies of Europe. Generals
Botha and Trinchart were always
in the most dangerous positions OF
the fighting. Seven ambulance:
removed the English dead and
wounded. Such a tremendou!

British steamer Lost.


Norfork. Va, Dec. 25.-The
British tramp steamer Ariosto
struck six miles south of Hatteras
lifesaving station yesterday morn
ing and twenty one men were
drowned. The Ariosto, a vessel of
q 265 tons net register, sailed from
Galveston on Dec. II, bound for
Hamburg yia Norfolk, where she
meant to touch for bunker coal.
Dense fog has prevailed off this
coast for several days past, and
although this lifted last night, 1t is
believed that the ship had pr,-
viously lost her bearings and got
too close in shore. A stiff gale was
blowing and a heavy sea was run
ming when, at 4:30 O'Clock the
steamer struck on a shoal north
Of Cape Hatteras, near which SO
many ships have been lost.
Soon after the Ariosto struck the
waves began to roll over her, and
twenty-one men of her crew launch
ed three of her boats aud attempt
ed to come ashore.
Within plain sight of the watch
ers, including the crews of the life
saving station near, who stood
upon the beach powerless to help
them, the boats crew lost their
lives.
3n One after another the boats
foundered in the heavy seas. Not
one succeeded in reaching the shore
and not one of the occupants es-
capped with his life.
Capt. Barnes and eight men, the
remainder of the thirty souls aboard
the vessel, elected to remain on
the ship after she struck, and to
this act they owe their lives.
|. Strenuous efforts were made by
the crews of the Hatteras ani
Ocracoke's lifesaving stations dur
ing the day to save the imperilei
men on the Ariosto, and thes,
finally proved successful. Man!
Intellectual efforts were made t,
land line aboard the doome,
ship by firing it from the Lisle gul
ashore This was finally accom-
plished.
A line, which reached the stand
ed steamer, was by those aboar
. made fast to the mast and tn
breeches buoy of the Oracoke sta
ton crew sent out to the ship b
Capt. Howard of that station.
Soon, above the boiling seas,
maa in the buoy slid ashore on th
lifeline, while wild cheers aros
from those on ship and shore. Thi
was repeated at intervals during tn
day, aud before nightfall the las
man was ashore.
