BRITISH DISASTER
Mas Caused RevuIsIon OF Feeling

LONDON, Nov. 30.-General Lord
Roberts telegraphs the war Office that
Dewetsdorp was surrendered to the
Beers on November %.
Four hundred men and guns were
captured by the Burghers. after the
British had lost fifteen men killed and
forty wounded.
Lord Roberts's dispatches furnish
the most startling proof that the war in
South Africa still has vigor. II is
poor consolation that the British have
since reoccupied the town after the
Beers had withdrawn.
The British disaster at Dewetsdorp
has caused very angry feeling here.

that General Lord Kitchener takes up

but all interested are parties who have
never failed in an undertaking. 1t will
be the greatest thing ever done for
Juarez for it will make that place the
liveliest city in Mexico and bring
sports here from every section of the
world.
The parties interested are men of
abundant means and are well able to
carry out any scheme permitted by the
Mexican government. They will have
the best horses in the United States
here for the meet on this side and all
the leading prize fighters in the coun-
try will pull off their combats in the
to make FL Paso one of the leading
fields for base ball. fot ball. and other
college games. The superb climate
here makes this city the most desirable
place in the United States for such an
institution and being on the border
sports can be anticipated in in Mexico
that are prohibited in this country.
II is said that the scheme will meet
with the hearty approval of the people
of JuareZ for it will redeem the losses
sustained from otherc auses. The lack
of water and the damaging features of
the free zone laws have left the city
and vicinity in a deplorable condition
and it is said that the government will
make many concessions that it would
otherwise not make to help those peo-
pie.
The plans of those interested are not
far enough matured to allow publica-
tion in detail but it is thought that
something more definite can be pub
lished within a few days.

Arthur Thornburg Arrested.

Arthur Thornburg, who had his
preliminary hearing on Thursday of
last week, resulted in his being bound
over. The charge against the boy
was non-delivery of a letter to Mrs.
Leviney Long, bearing special de-
livery stamp. Thornburg claims that
he gave the letter to girl that was
at Mrs. Longs home, Mrs. Long her.
self being absent. Thornburg brought
a signed receipt back to Postmaster
Richards which he claimed the girl
had signed for Mrs. Long. Some of
Mrs. Longs neighbors had told her
that boy was seeking her and had a
letter for her. This news brought
Mrs. Long to Mr.. Richards inquiring
for the letter. This inquiry raised
other questions thick and fast. The
Postmaster sent for Thornburg, who
did not respond until sent for the third
time. When he did come his expla-
tions were not satisfactory, and as a
result special postal inspector j. F.
Salman was wired for. Mr.. Salman
elected nothing more from Thorn
burg than has already been told, and
as the result of the trial, Thornburg
was bound over to the United States
authorities. On Friday last, United
States Deputy Marshal Lewis Hughey
came to Hillsboro and took the boy to
Cincinnati on the afternoon train. At
the trial before the Mayor the testi-
mony of Mrs. Long and Others was
fatty contradicted by Thornburg, but
the end is not yet.

Ordination and Confirmation.

In Scriptural phrase, last Monday
and Tuesday we're "high days" in the
Episcopal Church of this place. The
interesting conditions leading up to
period of high tension and pleasure
we're the exercises connected with the
ordination of Rev. 2. B. Phillips and
the confirmation of class of thirty
one members. 1t must be gratifying
to Rev. Phillips and his parish to be
able to make such showing at this
time, and the unusual attendance at
all the services showed that the town
of Hillsboro is alive to her best inter-
ests, namely, the encouragement to
and the building up of her churches.
This interest was heightened by the
presence in the town and participa-
tion in the solemn exercises of this
occasion of such men as Bishop Boyd
Vincent, Rev. Fred Williams, Rev.
Alex McCabe, Drs. Geo. H. Edwards
and Peter Finley, together with the
former pastor of that church, Rev. L.
M. Idleman. Those men of high stand
ing and influence lent much interest
to this more than ordinary occasion.
The result of the work of these di-
vines as has already been intimated
was the ordination of the young pas
tor, Mr.. Phillips, and the confirma-
tion of thirty-one to full membership
in the church. The exercises conferr-
ing priests orders on Rev. Phillips
were both solemn and impressive, and
the recipient was certainly worthy of
the position which he now holds in
that denomination. A newspaper no.
tice cannot do justice to all that was
done and said on this occasion. The
reader must therefore supply much
that is knowingly omitted.
The class confirmed consisted of the
following named parties:
Mrs. Jacob Frank, Emma Frank,
Bertha Frank, Mrs. Ed Sanderson,
Annette Holiday, j. w. Smith,
Edith Smith, Charles Utman, Mrs.
Charles Utman, Mary Schweinsberger,
Mrs. Geo. Beecher, Georgiana Beech

A CRY FROM NATURE.
A Warning That Should be Needed
by Every Sufferer.

Nature soon rebels when the human
machinery is out of order. Her ap-
peals for help should be quickly an
swered. Life is too short and dear to
us to neglect our health.
When the system becomes run
down, the blood impure, the liver tor
pid, nerves all on a quiver, and the
stomach refuses to do it's work, then
nature utters her warning note. 1t
may be sick headache, nervousness,
dyspepsia, catarrh, loss of appetite,
insomnia, languor, constipation, but
it is natures signal of distress.
The human machine should be at
tended to without delay.
The system needs building up, the
impurities must be driven from the
blood, the liver made to do its work
and the stomach placed in a natural,
healthy condition.
Knox Stomach Tablets are a new
combination of vegetable remedies
compounded by one of the best chem
lists in the world; and are guaranteed
to build up the whole system. They
do not act as stimulant, but are a
sarsaparilla in tablet form, contain
ing twice the medicinal properties OF
any other combination of remedies
known. They give health and
strength to the entire body and inn
mediate relieve indigestion and posi-
lively cure dyspepsia.
A single box will prove their power
to cure chronic invalids and make
them strong, healthy men and women.

Tablets of your druggist, send fifty
cents to the Knox Chemical Co.,
