A strange story comes from Susque-
hanna county, Pa. According to a
veracious correspondent three wildcats
at Fiddle Lake attacked a big eagle,
which is wintering among the trees in
a hemlock grove near the lake. AL
though attacked from three points, the
bird gallantly held its own ana slew
two of the wildcats. This Is the way
he did it: Singing out one Of the cats
the eagle grasped 1t tightly by the
neck, burying his talons deep in the
flesh; then. rising almost perpendicu-
larly for about 100 feet, allowed his
prisoner to drop on ledge of rocks.
Two falls killed the first victim. but
three were required to get away with
the second. The survivor, seeing the
fate of his companions. flew down the
mountain side.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

Tn. Produo, Of Cooper.

There has recently been published in
Germany an interesting book entitled
"A Century OF Copper" which shows
that the United States now furnishes
more than half OF nll the copper used
In the world While the production
has increased with great rapidity In
other countries, In none has the copper
industry developed so rapidly as In
the United States. In 1880 the total
value Of copper manufactured was OH

THE B0ER
Arrive in Philadelphia and MingIe
With the Republican Throng.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. June 16.-While
the delegates were arriving by every
train, the three representatives of the
South African Republics-Messrs. Fisch-
er, Vessels and Wolmarans, put in an
appearance. They took quarters at the
Walton, which is the centre of political
activity, and after dinner mingled with
the crowds in the lobby, talking famiI-
iarly to large crowds. Mr.. Vessels, when
asked if there was any significance in
the visit at the time of the convention,
aid
Not in the least. We had expected to
have a meeting here. but owing to the
convention have given it up. We are
here simply as observers. to see the
manner in which your nominations for
the Presidency are made"
D you seek a Boer plank in the plat
form?'
There win be no move of that kind by
US. Naturally, 1t would be gratifying to
US if such a plank were put in the plat
form. But if that comes about it will
be through the spontaneous action Of
the delegates"
The Boer representatives will remain
here until Tuesday and perhaps longer.

REPORT FROM ROBERTS.

LONDON, June 16.-The war Office
has received the following message
from Lord Roberts:
PRETORIA, June 16.-Rustenburg
was occupied yesterday by Baden
Powell. A column starts from this
place tomorrow to meet Baden-Powell
and repair the telegraph between Pre-
toria and Rustenburg.
"Hunter is moving from Potchefst-
room. His advance brigade expects to
reach johannesburg June 49,
Butler, l hope, is at Standerton.
Heidelberg will be occupied from this
place shortly, and then the Orange
River colony will be completely cut
off from the Transvaal.
"B~aden-Powell reports that the dis
trict through which he passed is settl-
ing down satisfactorily. Over one
thousand stand of arms were surrend-
cred and Hans Eloff and Pet Kruger,
son OF the president, were to make
submission to him yesterday, having
been previously disarmed on their
farms.
'Botha's army has retired and Is be-
lieved to be at Middleburg. His rear
guard was surprised and entirely rout-
ed by Ian Hamilton's mounted in
fantry."
The war Office has received the fol-
lowing despatch from Gen. Butler:
"LAINGS MEX, June Is (Friday).-
Now that Natal is clear of the enemy,
l wish to call attention to the dis
graceful way in which private prop
erty was treated in the part of the
colony they occupied. Their wilful
and needless damage is visible every
where and houses, when not complete
fy wrecked, have been desecrared with
filthy ingenuity. That this has been
done with the consent OF the leaders
is proved by the fact that while in
Charlestown every house was wrecked,
in Volksrust, two miles off, but in the
T~ransvaal, every house was intact"

DELEGATIONS ARRIVING.
California First in With Forty Men,
New York's Big Four Created a

Stir.
PHILADELPHIA, June 16.-The
rush of delegates and visitors to the
National Republican Convention be-
gan in earnest to-day. Those who had
not engaged rooms in advance were
turned away from the big hotels. Most
of the big men are in tonight.
The first solid delegation to arrive
came from California. There were
over forty persons in the party, head
ed by L. S. Grant, Jr., delegate at
large. All of them had on Scott
badges and they assured inquirers that
their candidate was in the field to stay.
The chief interest in to-day's ar
rivals was conferred in New York's
big Four" Shortly after 3 o'clock,
while the corridors of the Hotel Wal
ton were crowded, some one shouted:
Here. comes Teddy" Instantly there
was a shout and then most of the
crowd took to cheering New York's
Governor. After holding an i'm
promptu reception in the hotel office,
Governor Roosevelt went directly TO
his rooms and a steady stream of
cards was started to the apartments.
Senators Plat and Depew and State
Chairman Odell followed close on the
heels of Governor Roosevelt. Mr.. Plat
was Immediately surrounded by poll
ticians of all degrees and had difficulty
in reaching his rooms.
Other prominent arrivals included
Senator Gallinger, of New Hampshire;
Governor Shaw, of Iowa; John G. Nc
Cullough, chairman of the Vermont
delegation and Congressman Grow, of
Pennsylvania.
Seven members of the Nebraska
delegation and the representatives
from New Hampshire arrived this
evening as did also a part of the Vir-
ginia delegation. Oregon opened its
headquarters at the Bingham this af-
ternoon although the full delegation is
not expected before Monday.
Ex-Secretary of the Interior Bliss pr
rived this afternoon and went direcuy
to the Stratford, where he remained
until this evening when he attended
the banquet at the Union League in
honor of Senator Hanna. Mr.. Bliss
was asked for an expression on the
yice-presidential situation, but absol-
utely refused TO give any.
You must excuse me-" he said,
from being quoted in any way about
anything. 1 have been elected as a
delegate to the national convention
and my coming here was merely to
discharge my duty. Further than this
l have nothing to say"

DEMANDED SAVE CONDUCT.

LONDON, June 16.-A special from
Shanghai, dated today. says that 1t Is
reported that after the audience OF Sir
Claude Macdonald. British minister TO
China, with the Tsung Ii Yamen, five
foreign ministers demanded a safe con-
duet for their servants and their peo-
pie, notifying the Tsung Ii Yamen
that they could no longer maintain re-
lations with the government. The an
swer was Certainly not. What an
swer could be expected In a civilized
country" This was followed by an in
crease of the forces around the gates.
and the next night widespread incend-
iarism.
This incendlarism prevailed among
the foreign residences. The massacre
Of native Christians and other friends
of foreigners was also common. Tho
buildings of the American missions.
the customs. and a number OF other
structures were destroyed. The guards
alone saved the foreigners who 1t il
stated are huddled in legations very
short Of food and deserted by native
servants.

disposed to let the matter rest and
wrote Miss Steer as follows:
Madame further understand that
last night you materially altered the
business as arranged by me. and as it
was played under my direction by Mrs.
Kendall, Miss Anderson. Miss Rose Lee
lerck and, indeed, by every other lady
who has played Galatea under my stage
management during the last twenty
eight years. | must ask you
To Advance and KneeI
in front of Cynisca from her left, not
from the right, TO throw yourself on
your knees in front of her, without any
exclamation; to fall at Cynisca's feet
and not on any account TO cross Pyg-
malion, or. indeed, do any business not
arranged at rehearsal. II you do not
comply with my wishes in these re-
spects | will apply for an injunction TO
prevent your playing the piece, or
otherwise, as | may be advised
The next day Mr.. Gilbert wrote
again:
Il understand you in~terpolated sew
eral ordinations last night while Miss
Repton was delivering her important
speech at the end of the second act Of
'Pygmalion and Galatea,' thereby
greatly impairing the effect of the
speech and causing it to be indistinct
and confused. AS this was not done at
rehearsal, l had no clue to your inten-
ton, or | should have cautioned you
before this. AS it is, / must direct
your attention to the necessity of keep
ing silence during the delivery of the
important speech in question. AS, I'M
fortunately, experience has taught me
that a mere request of mine is not
likely to receive much consideration
at your hands, | have instructed Miss
Repton how to deal with the difficulty
should it arise again. My Instruction.
TO her are to stop short at the first in
terruption, remain silent until the in
again. Should the interruption be re-
peated she is again to stop until the
annoyance ceases altogether"
Miss Steer writes that
The Real Difference of Opinion
resulting in Mr.. Gilbert's ebullition
arose from quite another matter.
When arranging with Mr.. Gilbert for
the production of the two plays a
question which he made an imperative
condition was that | should engage
Miss Repton. who, apparently, is a
protege. for the part of Cynisca. On
Wednesday evening | requested her TO
wear the wig provided for the part and
she elrtly refused, whereupon Mr.. Gill
bert interfered and v~ehemently stated
he would not allow her to dislgure
herself by wearing a wig. After some
emphatic expressions of opinion Mr..
Gilbert left the theater."
Aside from this. theatrical matters
have been dull and the managers are
already talking of closing.
The Princess OF Wales, who is a
regular attendant at Covert Garden.
