Hatless and coatless men and boys
ran through the city alleys to see for
themselves the bulletins announcing
the good news and stayed to add their
voices to the throngs singing God
Save the Queen" Old men on tops or
omnibuses and aldermen from the win
dows of the Mansion house encouraged
the crowds to still further efforts. The
premature report of the fall OF the
Beers stronghold did not seem to have
taxed the edge off today's celebration.

to read Lord Roberts account OF the

burned this morning. causing a loss es-
timated at $4,000. For time other

London. June Sat 2 o'clock this af-
ternoon, almost eight months after the
declaration of war. Lord Roberts en-
tered Pretoria. While the commander
in-chief is fulfilling the promise he
made to the guards at Bloemfontein to
lead them into the capital OF the Trans
vaal, England is celebrating the event
with wild enthusiasm. Throughout
the length and breath OF the country
the news spread like wild fire. Based
on the recollection of recent European
wars, when the occupation of the enc
my's capital signified the end of hostili-
ties. Lord Roberts terse telegram was
taken to mean the practical finish of
the war. which has tried Great Bri-
tain's military resources as they were
never tried before. In London the Man.
sion house and war office almost in
simultaneously became the scenes for ju-
bilant throngs so large that traffic had
to be diverted through other streets.

MISCREANTS.
They Put Out Swltchllghts and
Blocked Switches with Stones
at Forest Hills.

Boston, June 5.--A track walker OF
the N. Y, N. III. and II. r. r.. early
this morning made the discovery at
Forest Hills station that the wicks had
been removed from the switchlights
and that the switches had been blocked
with stones driven in between the rails.
The police searched the vicinity, but
no tramps or suspicious characters
were found. The police continued their
investigation today, assisted by detec-
tives in the employ of the railroad
company. At 1880 last night trains
passed through the. station and the en-
gineers say the lanterns were lighted
and the switches all right. The rail-
road officials say that IL the persons
who extinguished the lights and
blocked the switches hoped TO derail a
train they adopted a wrong plan, as
with the switch lights extinguished
every engineer would stop his train
and investigate.
