commanders, those Of Delarey, Eras-

the previous night took up positions
facing the lesser kopjes five miles north
of the W%onderboom range, but extend

break yesterday squadron c, Of the
Seventh dragon guards, advanced from
the regiments camp, near D%oornpoort,
on a scouting expedition. The regi-
ment had a long line to watch.

FREEZING WEATHER IN JULY

Would cause great discomfort and loss,
but fortunately it is seldom known.
. A vast amount of misery is caused at
this season, however, by impoverish-
ed blood, poor appetite and general
debility. These conditions may be
remedied by enriching the blood and
toning the stomach with Hoods Sar-
saparrilla. This medicine seems to
put new life into the whole physical
system, simply because of its Won
derful power to purify, enrich and
vitalize the blood, create an appetite
and i%nvigorate the digestive func-
tions. We advise you to get a bottle
and try it if you are not feeling just
right. 1t will do you more good than
a six weeks vacation. 1t is the best
medicine money can buy.

Great in Defeat.

To day Bryan the defeated candidate
for President facing defeat for the second
time, has lost not one whit of the love
and respect Of his followers. He has
come out of the campaign greater than
when he went in sacrificing no principle
and losing none Of his manhood and self
respect he is the one man of the decade
who has dared to fling his lance full in
the face of the corporate wealth of the
country and grapple in its Governed lair
on Manhatten Island the gigantic bank
ing trust Of America.
In all the hot battle of theipast few
months he has been where the fight was
thickest and not for single moment has
he tlinched in the face of the fire con-
centrated fire of the opposition.
Even in defeat, he STANDS today the
greatest living American statesman and
the principles which he advocates will
live as long as the Republic endures.
