CONFIDENCE IN ROBERTS.
British Faith in "Bobsv Is Strength.
ened by the Recent Victory.

Now that one of the most formidable
of the Boer generals has been summarily
disposed of, the London war critics are
justifying their confidence in "Bobs,"
whose good luck is proverbial, but is in
reality an infinite capacity for taking
pains. They point out that it took only
ten days to compel the surrender Of the
Beers at Paardeburg, while Mafeking,
Ladysmith and Kimberley, with very in
ferior forces, have held out for four
months. The comparison seems to graft
fy the national pride, somewhat humbled
as it has been by recent reverses and
hostile foreign criticism.
The capture of Gen. Cronje and his
troops cannot fail to have an immediate
effect on the war. Gen. Cronje's name
was one wherewith to conjure. During
the war of 1SS0-1 Cronje besieged Pot
chefstroom. After a long and gallant re-
sistancc the garrison was forced TO sur
render eight days after peace had been
declared. During all that time Cronje
had concealed the news from the British
commander. His conduct in placing Brit
ish prisoners in the trenches, where they
were killed by the fire of their country
men, earned for him the hatred Of the
British.

Majuba Hill,
Feb. II, 1881.

The disastrous defeat OF Gen. Sir
George COlley by Gen. Joubert at
Majuba Hill was retrieved by Gen.
Lord Roberts in the capture of Gen.
Cronjc on the Modder. The recent
British victory was a peaceful sur
render, while Colley's defeat, nine
teen years ago, was the most fatal
battle of the first British Boer war.
On Saturday night, Feb. 20. 1881,
Sir George Colley, with a small force,
moved out of camp at Mount Pros
pect and occupied Majuba Hill, which
overlooked the Boer position on the
fiat beyond Laing's Mex. Early Sun
day morning Gen. Joubert attacked
the hill. and, under cover of desultory
firing. three Boer stormlng parties
ascended the hill unseen. The Brit
ish were outfianked and surrounded
and a deadly fire was poured upon
them from all sides. The slaughter
was heavy. Sir George COlley was
killed just as he had given orders to
cease firing. The British fed, being
shot as they ran. So disastrous q de-
feat has seldom fallen upon British
arms. 1t was the last episode of that
war. Peace was established on what
was regarded as BOer basis.

DEWEY RECEIVES So, $40.
Award of the Court of Claims as Bounty
for the Manila Battle.

The United States Court of Claims has
rendered an opinion in the cases of Ad
miral George Dewey for naval bounty on
account of the battle of Manila, the opin.
ion being the finding of facts for a judg-
ment of $3.50. The opinion is that the
Spanish force in Manila bay was inferior
to that Of the Americans, and for that
reason the claimants for bounty will be
allowed 800 instead of 5000 for each
man in the enemy's feet Had the opin-
ion held that the Spanish force was SUI
perior, Admiral Dewey's share would
have been $4,000 40.

supported by great steel girders. The
general seating arrangement is modelled
somewhet after the plan of the Metro
politan Opera House, New York.
The floor space is divided into arena,
arena balcony. balcony and roof garden,
boxes skirting the arena and the arena
balcony. The stage is situated in the
center of the arena. The total seating
capacity is nearly 10000, and, with
standing room, the building is capable of
holding more than $4,000 persons. The
arena alone will seat 1000. To each
side Of the arena and under the first
balcony are numerous committee rooms,
which have their separate street en-
frances. The building has no stairways,
the upper seatings being reached by
means of inclined planes. Separate exits
are used for the balconies and roof gar
den, and 1t is estimated the hall can be
emptied at the rate OF 5000 persons a
minute. =
