''All boxers in north China; none in south," Bronx went on excitedly, trying to explain the character of the boxer organization, which he said was like one of the great poli- tical parties of the United States.

Colorado Navigation.

One would not think from the illus trated article in the Los Angeles Herald of last Sunday that the Col Orado rlver and Needles constitute any part of the great state of Cal ifornla The article is headed ''Steamboating on the Colorado" sand gives as an illustration the cut of a gasoline boat that has been slumbering beneath the waters of the river for, To these many years. They designate the illustration as landing freight at the mines, but, the picture was taken at Needles showing the pumping plant and the old reduction works and not within ten miles of a mine. Talk about just finding ways to navigate the Colorado, why, steambOats have been doing business between Yuma and Fort Mohave since the latter sos and have been in constant ser vice every day since. Steamboat ing on the Colarado is neither prim- itive nor crude. There are many thousands of dollars invested in boats on the Colorado river. The steamers Cochan and Mohave are boats of 200 tons burden and will tow barges with 150 tons cargo. these boats are strictly up to date fully manned, and have all the modern appliances for river naviga- tion. Less than a week ago the desert was written up from the cal window of a moving train. Now someone weaves story round ar old photograph. It hardly seems possible the writer of the article ever saw the Colorado river mucl less a steamboat navigating it' waters.-Needles Eye.

Hard Lines.

There are always good many Arizonans in town at this season and last Friday week was no excep- tiOn. That was the day of the free holders election and, as a matter of course, all the saloons were closed. It was a trying situation for the average Arizona thirst. Four fel- lows met in front of Third-street saloon and one said:
 "Well, we're all here together for the first time in six months. Let's go iE and hyste in some of th1s fel- ler's pizen,' He walked up to the saloon door to find 1t closed as tight as any mausoleum and nearly pushed his right side through the glass which formed part of the door "What kind of geewhallop- ingly gaul-derned town is this we've got hyur?" he shrieked with ve- hemence worthy of Bryan himself. "What. kind of one-horse village is this whar feller cant git his rations of piled corn eff he's got the money to pay for emp
 Perhaps you are not aware sir, quietly replied citizen who stood by, ''that this is an election day and, under the laws of this state, all sa- looms must be closed on that day"
 'Till when?" asked the sagebrush man.
 "From sunrise till sundown," re- piled the citizen blandly, and took his departure. Just then along came two little Italian boys with a harp and violin. They looked up inqulringly into the face of the man from the desert.
 Say, Bill, said one of his com paniOns, ''as we cant get in thar to bite the adder, s'posin' we have some music? Hyur, you youngsters, tune up," and he threw them quarter.
 The black, bead-like eyes of the larger boy sparkled as he inquired;
 '.Watta da tuna de signor lika me playa for him?'
 "Well, ; replied the thirsty indi- vidual, ''ef it's all the same to you, my sonny, you can play Just as the Sun Went Down. '"-Los An geles Times.

BoERs MOST CONSIDERABLE.
Kind Treatment of the British
wounded After the Fight.

Arundel, Saturday, Feb. II (Received by
dispatch rider.-Capt. Longhurst of the
British medical corps spent night at
Hobkirk's farm, attending The wounded
Australians. He says that the enemy were
remarkably kind to the wounded, provid-
ed them with mattresses and gave they
all the eggs they had.
The Boer commander and Capt. Long
hurst found that they had mutual friends
in London and were soon on the best
terms. The Beers and the British
wounded fraternized Noticing that the
bandoliers of the enemy were filled with
soft-nosed bullets one of our men said:
you ought not TO bring such things to
fire at u.s."
The Beers replied I'VE must use what
ever we can get"
This particular Boer contingent had
come from the northern district of the
Transvaal, where the Beers are used to
hunting big game along the Limpopo. The
men had obtained their ammunition for
that purpose. The Briton, whose thigh
had been shattered, replied to this ex-
PLANTATION: well l wish you had been
kind enough to shoot me lower down."
After the retirement of the British forces
the Beers held a prayer meeting and
thanked heaven for their successes. Then
they separated into small parties and
moved to their various outposts, chanting
hymns as they went.
Capt. Longhurst says that he was much
impressed by their considerable treatment
of the British wounded.

WAR SITUATION SUMMED UP.
Roberts May Now Try to Cross Over
and Join Gen. Butler.

and Join Gen. Butler.
London, Feb. dispenser Wilkinson, re-
viewing the military situation, in the
Morning Post to-day, says:
Lord Methuen's army can now be used
to assist the operations of Lord Roberts
Probably the march from Jacobsdal to
Bloemfontein will occupy six days. The
British right wing is acting on the de-
fensive in the country south of the Orange
river and is now holding it's, own, which
is all it is required to do for the moment.
THE army of Lord Roberts, in pushing
through the Free State, will probably have
the effect of disturbing the Boer army in
Natal because if the army remains there
he will run the risk of being caught be-
tween the armies of Lord Roberts and
Gen. Butler.
"While the two British armies are sew
eral days marching apart, it is possible
for the Beers to throw the bulk of their
forces against one, while acting on the
defensive with the smaller body against
the other. The Boer commander-in-chief
must therefore, now desire to strengthen
Gen. Cronje to the point where he might
hope to check or delay Lord Roberts. How
far he can detach troops for this purpose
depends largely upon Gen. Buffers action
''Dispa tches from Ladysmith indicate a
movement among the besiegers. This
may mean that they are sending reinforce
ments to Cronje or that they are prepar-
ing a new assault upon Ladysmith.
1T is satisfactory therefore, to hear
that Gen. Butler has occupied Hussar
hill"

Aged woman Watched Operation
without n Sign of Pain.

Chicago, Feb. 1S.-Mrs. Mary Arndt, In
spite of her SO years, watched surgeon
at the County Hospital to-day amputate
her right leg. two inches below the hip
without giving any evidence of pain. The
operation proved successful.
The operation was of great interest to
the surgical world. DIR. Samuel l.. Weber,
a member of the advisory staff of the hos
pital, had charge of the operation, which
It said to be the first of Its nature per-
formed in America and the second known
to medical men, the first having been
performed in Europe. Dr. Weber made a
study of the initial operation and con-
cluded that the method might be employed
for the lower limbs of patients who were
unable to withstand the effects of an
aesthetics The method consists in the
deadening of the nerves In the limbs by
the injection of cocaine in the vertebral
cavity above the point where the nerves
controlling the lower limbs branch from
the spinal chord. The patient, while los
ing all feeling in the lower limbs, had the
use of all her faculties.
She had suffered gangrenous affection
of the leg and amputauon became neces-
sary to save her life
