Her eyes are almost blind;
For though she's lusty still she's left
Some foursc1re years behind
How dazed and dun she looks today!
What can the reason be?
That dog keeps Juggling at her skirts.
And yet she doesn't see.
She doesn't mind the kitten, too
He's climbed into her lap;
Nor feels that the canary bird
Has perched upon her cap

And tints her cheeks with red
On God, have mercy, Can IL be?

Beers GETTING RECRUITS
RUM0R FROM CAPE TOWN.
General French Supposed to Have
Entered JOhannesburg-Dela Of
ROberts-Casualties at Mafeking--
Large Number Killed.

Cape Town, May 29.-It is rumored
here that General French has entered
johannesburg.
Beers SheIIed Out of SennekaI.
Sennekal, May 29.-General Rumble
with artillery, Yeomanry, Wiltshires and
Middlesex and Leicester regiment, under
Major Dalbiac, has occupied Sennekal
whence the Beers were driven out by a
few shells. A field cornet and a number
of other Beers were killed. The British
casualties numbered IL. The Beers are be-
lieved to be concentrating near Bethle-
hem.
Beers Get Recruits.
London, May 29.-Advices received here
assert that supplies continue to 60 to the
Beers from Lorenzo Marquee, and that
foreign recruits for the Boer army pro-
coed from the same point.
No Serious Resistance.
London, May 29.-Although the fed
erals are said to be preparing for a strong
resistance at the Kip river, those who
have most closely followed the progress
of the war since the British and Boer
armies came in touch at Brandford are
skeptical as to the burghers seriously dis
putting Roberts advance even there. If
no stand is made at the Kip river the
safety of the Beers guns at LAing's mex
will be seriously imperiled, for there will
be nothing to prevent Roberts from seiz-
ing the Johannesburg Laing's Mex railroad.
Indeed, it is already reported that the
railroad has been cut and it is quite pos
sible the first official news will record the
occupation of Heidelberg.
Roberts may be forced to halt at the
Vaal river to repair the bridge and get his
guns and transport across, but the mount
ed men will not be delayed. 1t is said in
high quarters that the speedy announce
ment of the arrival of the British cavalry
at johannesburg will not surprise the war
office.
"A dispatch from Mafeking says the
total casualties since the commencement
of the siege were 83. Out of A officers %
were killed, wounded or missing, and 100
men out of 975 privates were killed,
wounded or missing.
