Fields for Investment.

Why doesn't some enterprising bus
mess man who wants to do well start
hot house for the raising Of early
vegetables, such as onions, lettuce,
radishes, rhubarb, etc.; green house
for the raising Of flowers; a hennery
for the producing of chickens and
eggs; a creamery for the making of
butter All of these industries would
no doubt pay well here and all of thsse
commodities are purchased else
where. Such institutions would
employ a large number of
men, enhance the value of prop
erty and keep the hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars here. instead of send
ing the money OF Of the county for
articles of commerce that might Just
as well be produced right here at
home.

Mafeking, March 27-News was
received yesterday of the advance of
the southern relief column. The
Beers this morning opened fire at
sunrise with seven guns including one
100-pounder. This has been the most
vigorous bombardment of the season.
The Boer siege alone has already
fred over sixty rounds. Under cover
of the fire the Beers advanced to the
northern face of the works but re-
tired precipitately on coming within
rife range. They also advanced to
the southwestern parts but were re-
pulsed. There was one casualty. The
Beers under Commandant Jan Cronje
are evidently falling back before the
advance of the southern relief col
umn, concentrating with two COM
mandoes who are retiring before
Colonel Plumer in order to make a
final effort to reduce the town. All
the forts and outlying positions are
manned, the troops standing to arms
and everybody under cover. All are
convinced this is the Beers last at |

A Good connnanv

A comedy drama of more than pass
ing interest is "The Burglar" play
that does one good to see. OF alb
sorbing interest, probably no drama
so strongly appeals to every emotion
or points a better moral, and no
mother or child whose desire is to
see what is pure and clean in the
drama should miss this performance.
It particularly appeals to children in
asmuch as one of the principal points
of interest in connection with the
story is the role enacted by little
child of about six years of age. At
the opera house tomorrow night, April

THE TEXAS FLOOD SITUATION

Washington, April 1O-The senate
committee on privileges and elections
has decided unanimously in favor OF
unseating Clark. of Montana. The
report is to declare his seat vacant

Harris, of Kansas, indicated the
most pronounced leaning toward
leniency for Clark. He did not ex-.
press any doubt that there had been
lavish expenditure of money in
Clark's behalf, but spoke in terms Of
strong condemnation of the tactics
pursued by some of Clark's opponents.
Pettus practically agreed with Harris
These two senators also expressed
doubt of the justification of the con-
clusion drawn by a majority of the
committee that Clark's candidacy for
the senate began in August 1898, when
he returned to Butte from New York.
The effect of this conclusion was to
Aharge up the entire $139,O00, which
Clark confessed to having expended
TO his campaign for the senate
Chandler and Turley were directed to
prepare the report. Clark was sur
prised at the action of the committee
but refused to make a statement until
after a consultation with friends and |
attorneys
