COUP MADE BY DE- WET
Succeeds In Cutting Lord Roberts
Lines of Communication.
HIGHLANDERS CAPTURED.
KeIIy-Kenny Reports That All
Means of Communicating With
Pretoria Have Been Cut
M OF by the Beers.

London, July 23.-General De Wet has
again succeeded in cutting Lord Roberts
communications, both by railway and
telegraph, and has captured 100 of the
highlanders. The story of the federal
commanders bold raid comes in the form
of a telegram from General Forester
Walker, dated at Cape Town Sunday,
July 90, forwarding dispatch from
General Knox as follows:
"Kroonstadt, July 22.-Following from
Broadwood sent by dispatch rider to
Honingspruit, wired thence to Kroon-
stadt: Have followed commando since

so well informed about the doings and
of any Republican party? And
again we would like to know il it is
really possible for Every Evening to de-
fend Republican partyP And, further,
can party be Republican which Every
Evening defends upon positive knowi-
edge of its doings and purposes?
Our own opinion about this is that
any thing which Every Evening can de-
fend has ceased to be Republican. We
think, too, that this opinion will be
shared by very large majority OF the
voters of this county. If this is true 1t
would be difficult for Every Evening to
prove that there is an Anti-Addicks Re-
publican party in this State. 1t is Just
possible that we may be mistaken about
this matter, but we venture the opinion
that there is no such party in this State.
Every Evening will admit (?) that all
Democrats are Anti-Addicksites. 1t fol-
fows that all Anti-Addicksites are Demo-
Gratis. That appears to be logical, and II
it holds it esta ablishes the fact that there
is no such party in this State as an Anti
Addicks Republican party. This con-
clusion agrees with our faith in the Re-
publicans OF this State. To be an Anti
Addcksite involves fighting for Demo-
cratic victory in this State, and this
against all evidence and reason. Repub-
licans do not do that. The situation is
vastly different from that of four years
ago, when thousands OF good Republi
cans were led astray by the mis-
take made by the National Re
publican Convention in recognizing
bolter delegates from this State and en-
abling them to organize as a regular he
publican party organization under th'
Democratic election laws OF this State
That error has been recthsd. 1t i
reasonable to suppose that all those loya
Republicans who were deceived by tn
conventions former action, have beel
undeceived by its correction OF its error
: and have swung into line again in tn
old party and behind the old flag.
This, however, is not eating crow
= Union Republicans do not offer sue
h yiands to the voters who sit at thei
i table. Their spreads are banquets
which he who serves best sits in th
n highest seat, and every one is accorde
IL what he can fairly win. Under thes
'e circumstances there will be enoug
,r voters in the Union Republican party
le defeat the Democrats at the Novembt
At election, and there wont be an Anti-At
'e dicks Republican among them.
ell The Anti-Addicks cry is obsolete e.
s. cept in Democratic quarters.

IA BLOW 10 THE CAUSE"
Judge Ball Allied With Enemies of
Shirt Waist Men.

Judge Bal's objection to allowing As
sistant City Solicitor Cahoon to appear
in CITY Court coatless, inspired the fol-
lowing editorial in the Philadelphia
North American:
lit becomes necessary to modify the
statement that woman is the only foe Of
the shirt waist man. The judiciary has
Joined her in tyrannical oppression OF
the long-snffering sex. a lawyer in Will
mington screwed up his courage to the
point OF openly enlisting in the ranks OF
the satorial insurgents and appeared in
court without coat. When the Judge
recovered from the awful shock to the
dignity of the judiciary he frowned
liercely upou the insurgent limb of the
law and sternly ordered him to stop
that
"The order from the bench seems to
have been a little vague in terms, owing
perhaps to the paralyzing impact upon
| the judicial mind of an impression or
/ idea for which there was no precedent,
but the attorney, knowing that the dicta
| OF the bench usually say one thing and
mean another and that the language OF
| law is not weapon OF precision, under
stood that he was ordered to stop not
wearing coat, and he meekly retired,
surrendering to the enemy without firing
shot, and returned encased in the gar
ment OF servitude and discomfort.
"The surrender of Attorney Cahoon is
a serious reverse to the cause of the shirt
waist insurgents, coming go early in the
campaign, and the offensive alliance o.
the judiciary with the tyrant is ominous
II men on the bench traitorously betray
their own sex and make themselves th'
allies Of woman, the revolt of perspirinl
man is doomed to early collapse and viii
never achieve the dignity of a revolu
tion."

keep the coming year?
Come, sit beside me, maiden fair and
straightway you shall hear;
I've pledged myself to choose one girl
from out the throng so gay,
And love her with an honest love for
ever and for aye.
I'll work for her with brain and Drawn
with all my might and main,
Until I've won her everything that
honesty can gain:
I'll fill her life with all that's good,
till life itself is done
And while we train our minds and
hearts we'll not neglect the fun.
Now tell me, won't you. maiden fair,
what you have vowed to do
For I've laid bare my iamost soul to
no one but to you?
