London, May 1O.-Gen. Hutton's
mounted Infantry brigade, including
the Canadians. with IA part of Gen.

river Tuesday and began to work its
way cautiously along the railway
northward in the track of the retiring
Beers. About 5000 horsemen were
probably engaged in this advance.
Gen. Hutton. before he was Joined
by part of Gen. French's force, had
q sharp fight. This was on Monday
when lie reached the river and saw
the Boer convoy on the other side and
pressed forward. intending to cross
and capture them. The Beers, how
ever, opened fire with from eight to 10
guns, forded the river above and be-
low, seemingly in thousands, and
sought to envelope the British. Gen.
Hutton fell back several miles, the
Beers following until other British
cavalry reinforced Hutton. During
the night the Beers retreated. not fur

Lord Roberts, according to one cor

conditions as have been alleged to ex-

limestone. Extending for miles
along the edge of the valley
is an immense deposit of the Mo
brara period of the Cretacious
formation, yet chemical tests prove
that the composition of this one
particular bluff is different from
everything else in the locality, and
it is here that an immense cement
factory has been erected by the
Colorado Portland Cement COM
pany, which is supplying the Col
orado market with the product at
the present time. There is no
other artificial cement company in

to use either limestone, shale, clays

as firm and hard as sdamant The
same is also true of the viaducts
in this ancient city.
Portland cement is rapidly tax
ing the place of stone tagging for
sidewalks and street crossings in
this country, and contractors of ex-
perience claim that for street paw
ing it is vastly superior, and will
outlast any other known material,
not even excepting vitrified brick.
The streets of many European
cities are paved with it, among
others being Berlin, Germany.
The little city of Bellefontaine,
Ohio, put down Portland cement
street paving ten years ago, and it
is authoritatively stated that not a
cent has been needed for repairs
since, and that the streets are in
just as good condition today in
every way as when first construct
ed. This surely would not be the
case had brick or asphalt been used
yet the cost was no more than it
would have been for either of these
materials in the first place, The
only reason why Portland cement
is not used more extensively in the
United States for paving purposes
is because it is not generally
thought about and considered
along with other materials
The American manufacturers of
Portland cement guard the secret
of its manufacture and composition
as zealously as the Europeans do,
so ii is not possible to give the
formula,yet it is known that carbon
ate of lime is one of its principal
constituents, sand that the grade and
quality varies, depending largely
upon the nature and quality of the
raw materials used and the care ex-
ercised in its manufacture In the
matter of raw material for cement
Colorado stands preeminent, for in
this state has been found deposit
shown by chemical analysis to
contain all the necessary ingredi-
ents already mixed by nature in
practically the correct proportions,
something that never has been dis
covered anywhere else in the world.
The geological wonder is located
in Fremont county along the south
side of the Arkansas river valley,
six miles east of Florence. At
