It Is an interesting study in nomen- clature to run over the names of the presidents wives. There has been but one Mary-Mary Todd Lincoln. There were two Marthns-Martha Dandridge Washington and Martha Wayles Jef- ferson; two Abigails-Abigall Powers Fillmore and Abigail Smith Adams. Another maiden possessed of the com monplace name of smith became the wife of Margaret Smith, who married Zachary Taylor. There were also two Elizas-Eliza Kartwright Monroe and Eliza McCardle Johnson.
 There was a second Todd - Dolly Todd Madison. After Dolly, which was perhaps the most fanciful name, savorlng more of nickname, there were the two xather high sounding names, Letitia and Lucretia - Lctitia Christian Tyler and Lucretia Rudolph Garfield. Julia Dent Grant, Lucy Webb Hayes and Louisa Catherine Ad- ans had Christian names more modern and less sedate than Jane Appleton Pierce, Hannah Hoes Van Buren, Ra- chel Donelson Jackson, Sarah Childress Polk and Anhe Symmes Harrison. Frances Folsom Cleveland, Caroline Scott Harrison and Ida Saxton McKin- ley are familiar to all.-New York Sun.

 ''Nitrafs nek is about IS miles from here, near where the road crosses the Crocodile river. Ii was held by us in or der to maintain road and telegraphic communication with Rustenburg.
 ''The fighting lasted, more or less, throughout the day, and immediately on receiving information early this morning of the enemy's strength l dispatched re- achievements from here under Colonel Godfrey of the Kings Own Scottish Bor- derers. Before. however. they reached the spot the garrison had been overpowered, and the guns and Il greater portion of the squadron of the Grays had been captured owing to the horses being shot; also about 90 men of the Lincoln regiment.
 "A list of the casualties has not been received, but fear they are heavy"
 No further report from Lord Roberts has been received.

 The foreigners also went mad and kill ed all their women and children, shooting them with their rcvolvers instead of fir ing on the Boxers.
 When the heavy guns were loaded, they were all fired simultaneously, and the for egners were swept away like grass be- ing cut down. The Boxers rushed upon them and hacked and stabbed at the dead and the survivors. Many foreigners when the heavy guns were fired went back into the buildings. hoping to escape.
 The Boxers pursued them and were still in the buildings when the guns were brought nearer and the buildings were destroyed and burned. The foreigners who had sought refuge there and their purSuers were all burned together.
