ST, March IA: The Beers advanced from
the south in considerable force this morn
ing. They first advanced from Goodies
siding. After a sharp little engagement
Lieut.. Col. Bodies advanced post was
compelled to retreat. The retirement was
excellently carried out to our main posi-
ton. The casualties included Lieut. Chap
man and a corporal, prisoners and two
missing probably prisoners. Five troop
ers were wounded. Chapman's horse fell
with him close TO the enemy, who i'm
medately surrounded him. The exact
Boer casualties are unknown, but several
were shot at short range. In the after
noon the Beers advanced further north
and shelled our position from a ridge on
our left. our twelve and one-half pound
er replied, the artillery continuing until
sunset Lieut.. a. J. Tyler has since died
Of his wounds. One native was killed. "
Methuen's Advance Not Hurried.
A dispatch to the Daily News from
Warrenton. dated Thursday, describing
Lord Methuens position there, says:
"A small firing force sent through Bosh-
off secured an important crossing where
the ferry had been destroyed. but fore
seeing this, Lord Methuen had another
pont built. which is ready TO be sent
thither when an advance is considered OPP
perfume.
The cavalry and infantry column Is en-
route for this point. Thus the position of
the Beers at Fourteen Streams is for
midably threatened.
Lord Methuen's advance has not been
hurried TO the relief of Mafeking, where
the pressure apparently has been relaxed
as a result of operations elsewhere, but
he is confident of his ability to push aside
the opposition on the Vaal river when
the proper time comes"

Ex-President Harrison is said to
have written privately to Secretary
Hay that she hoped the Beers
would find some place on the green
earth where they would have a
right to live unmolested by the
British. They have more than
once sacrificed their land and their
homes and moved on to avoid Brit
ish aggression" Let the Boers, if
they find they cannot hold their
place in South Africa, pack up and
come to the United States. There
are enough of them to make new
State in Texas. The British de-
olare their purpose to prevent the
Beers, if defeated, resorting to
their old plan of treking farther
north, in the direction of the equa-
tor in South Africa. If this is
made good the only way left open
to the Beers would be to wear the
British collar or treke across the
ocean TO the United States. Like
the Irish, they would bring n Brit
ish grievance with them.
