A Fortunate MfStnlSe.

"There is a young man In Chicago"
says local physician, who now has
good business and bright prospects
who received his start in life by secur-
ing 81 that did not belong to him. l
hardly know under what to class the
incident of obtaining the money. will
let the story explain his actions.
"This young man arrived in Chicago
one day without funds, but with plenty
of nerve and push. He wanted money
to secure a meal and pay his room rent
until he could secure a position. Be-
lleving he could find some man who
would help him il he told his story in a
straightforward manner. he entered
cigar establishment in Dearborn street.
He was about to explain his condition
and ask for assistance until he could
get position when the proprietor look
ed up with fierce scowl. Hc turned
to his partner. and they held a consul
tation in a whisper for few moments.
Now, take this $4 and don't bother Inc
about that bill again. That's all you
will get. and now you can get out of
this place in a hurry exclaimed the
storekeeper.
"The young man was pushed toward
the door with the money in his hand,
and. try as he would. the storekeeper
would not let i'm talk. Once in the
street the bewildered fellow considered
the matter in every detail and decided
to keep the money. This he did. and
month or so later he again walled into
the cigar store and told his story and
returned the money" "-Chicago News.

IN GOEBEL'S FAVOR.
Kentucky Board of Contests Hurriedl

Kentucky Board of Contests Hurriedly
Agrees on a Report.
FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. 81. - While
William Goebel lay at the point Of
death in his room as the result of an as
sassin's bullet, the contesting boards,
which for two weeks had been listening
to the evidence in his contest for the
governors chair, declared him entitled
to the seat.
The boards having in charge the con-
tests between Goebel and Taylor for
governor and Beckham and Marshall
for lieutenant governor met in the city
hall to consider the evidence submitted
to them and prepare their report to the
legislature. A few legal authorities
were read to them at the request of Sen.
ator Allen, who wished light shed on a
few doubtful points. The vote was then
taken and by strict party vote Of 10 to
l, William Goebel was declared to have
been legally elected governor of Ken
lucky. The Beckham- Marshall contest
was then voted upon and
Strict Party Vote of Nine to Two
settled this matter. No announcement
was made of the reasons leading up to
the report being made SO hurriedly, the
boards taking everything at one leap.
Each one of the members of both COM
mittees announced that he had made up
his mind as to the merits of the case
and voted promptly as his name was
called.
In the contest for governor Repre-.
sentative Yarberry was the one to vote
in favor of Taylor, and in the Beckham.
Marshall contest Reid and Lilly were
with Marshall.
An effort was made by number of
the Democrats to get together quorum
of both houses and hold night session
and hear the reports of the two commit
tees at once and adopt them and declare
Goebel the governor of Kentucky before
morning. They were anxious to give
him the honor before he died.

provides that customs and revenue laws
shall be uniform throughout the United
States. In other words, it commits
them to the view that our new posses
sions can be governed as colonies and
that discriminating duties can be levied
gainst them. The question arose in
connection with the bill introduced 10
days ago by Representative Payne of
New York, chairman of the ways and
means committee, to extend the customs
and revenue laws of the United States
to Porto Rico and to make it collec-
tion district.
Payne's Bill Meant Free Trade.
This bill was designed to remove all
tariff barriers between Porto Rico and
the United States-free trade in other
words. Mr.. Payne stated at the time Of
the introduction of the bill that he had
offered it of his own notion after listen
ing to the hearings before the commit
tee on insular affairs. The Republican
members of the ways and means COM
mittee, to which the bill was referred,
decided to favor substitute which will

discussion in the full committee. This
substitute provides that the tariff of
Porto Rico against goods from foreign
countries, except the United States,
shall be the same as that against goods
entering the United States from such
countries, but that goods imported into
Porto Rico from the United States shall
pay 25 per cent of the tariff upon goods
of foreign countries.

VERY SEVI:nE LOSSES
BRITISH LEFT HUNDREDS OF DEAD
AT SPlON kOP.

Bocr Reports Say the Battlefield was Cow

BoER HEAD LAAGER, Ladysmith, Jan.

PRETORIA, Thursday, Jan. 25, via

One hundred and fifty prisoners. God
be thanked, although we had to give
brave and valuable lives.
LONDON, Jan. 29.-General Buffers
dispatch to the war office states that
Spion kop was abandoned on account Of
lack of water, inability to bring artillery
there and the heavy Boer fire. General
Butler gives no list of casualties. His
whole force withdrew south of the
Tugela with the evident intention OF
reaching Ladysmith by another route.

General Buller's Official Dispatch Describ-
ing the Fight.
LONDON, Jan. 29.-The following is
General Buffers dispatch, dated Spear
mans Camp; Saturday, Jan. II:
"On Jan. 20 Warren drove back enemy
and obtained possession of the southern
crests of the high table land extending
from the line of Acton Homes and Hon.
gers Poort to the western Ladysmith
hills. From then to Jan. 25 he remained
in close contact with the enemy. The
enemy held strong position on range
of small kopjes stretching from north
west to southeast across the plateau
from Acton Homes through Spion kop
to the left bank Of the Tugela.
''The actual position held was per-
fectly tenable, but did not lend itself to
all advance, as the southern slopes were
so steep that Warren could not get an
effective artillery position and water
supply was difficulty.
"On Jan. 23 assented to his attack
ing Spion kop, a mountain, which was
evidently the key of the position, but
was far more accessible from the north
than from the SOUTH On the night of
Jan. % he attacked Spion lsop but
Found it Very Difficult to Hold,
as it's perimeter was too large and water
which he had been led to believe existed
in this extraordinary dry season was
found very deficient. The crest was
held all that day against severe attacks
and heavy shell fire. Our men fought
with great gallantry. would espec-
tally mention the conduct Of the Second
Cameronians and the Third Kings
Rifles, who supported the attack on tho
mountain from the steepest side and in
every case fought their way to the top;
of the Second Lancashire Fusileers and
the Second Middlesex, who magnif-
Gently maintained the best traditions of
the British army throughout the trying
day of Jan. "a, and Thornycroft's
mounted infantry, who fought through
out the day equally well alongside Of
them.
General Woodgate, who was in COM
mand at the summit, having been
wounded, the officer who succeeded him
decided to abandon the top and did so
before dawn Jan. 25. I reached War
ren's camp at 8 a. m. on Jan. 25 and de.
cided that . ...
Second Attack Upon spion Kop
was useless and that the eneny's right
was too strong to allow me to force it.
Accordingly decided to withdraw the
force to the south Of the Tugela. At
a. m. we commenced withdrawing the
train and by 8 a. m. Jan. ~ Saturday,
Warren's S force was concentrated south
Of the Tugela without the loss Of man
or pound of stores.
''The fact that the force could with:
draw from actual touch-in some cases
the lines were less than thousand
yards apart-with the enemy in the
manner it did, is, 1 think, sufficient evi.
dence of the morale of the troops and
that we were permitted to withdraw our
cumbrous OK and mule transports across
the river S5 yards broad with 20-foot
banks and very swift current unmo-

has been taught to respect our soldiers

Butler Tells His Men He Will Be in Lady,

LONDON, Jan. 31.-The Cape Town
correspondent of The Daily Mail, tele:
graphing Tuesday, says:
General Butler has received the fol-
lowing message from the queen to Sir
Charles Warren's forces: Il must ex-
press my gratitude to the troops in a
most trying week, especially of those
regiments you specify, and accomplish
ment of your arduous march.
General Butler told the men that
they ought not to think because they
had retired from their position that all
their work was Of no avail. On the
contrary, in his opinion, they had gained
the key to the road to Ladysmith, in
which he hoped to be within week.
General Butler then called for cheers
for the queen, which were heard for
miles around,''

MODELLING THE FLEET.
Precautionary Measures Taken by til,
British Cabinet,

Precautionary Measures Taken by the
British Cabinet.
LONDON, Jan. .31.-It is now known
that the cabinet devoted much of its dis
cussion on Saturday to the mobilization
of the fleet. Nothing was settled except
a measure Of further security to the
home coasts has been obtained by the
naval preparations and that the Eighth
division should not be sent to South
Africa. The admiralty issued orders
that the Channel squadron, instead of
leaving Portland this week for Gibraltar
as previously directed, shall assemble on
Feb. 3 off Eddystone and Bantry for
fortnight's exercise off the Irish coast,
thus keeping in home waters for time.
This decision to delay the Eighth divi-
sion at time when reinforcements are
so urgently required may mean only
that transports are not yet available and
that the
Division May Yet Embark
when the shipping is available. Their
detention, if such q course was deter
mined upon, would be of the utmost i'm,
portance. There is nothing in the intel
ligence possessed by the public to cause
the cabinets prolonged discussion Of
this matter and the inference is that the
fleet may be modified as a general
warning to other countries to keep their
hands off the Transvaal situation or
that the ministry may have definite
knowledge that the neutral powers pur-
pose to take advantage elsewhere while
England is busy in South Africa. One
thing is certain-1O,O0O men all ready
60 to South Africa are detained for
reasons of which the public has no
knowledge.
There is talk of Al military battalions
being embodied. These are all of the
militia not previously warned. A sharp
lookout is being kept on volunteers for
the various South African regiments.
