Strong Devotion to an Old Home
Mystery of Disappearance Cleared
Up-Spoke Despite a Broken Wrist
Defender of His Father Acquitted.


A singular case of devotion to an Old
home is evidenced at Belgium, in which
Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Schreiner, an Old
couple, are the individuals. Last spring
Mr.. Schreiner had sold his farm, when
he had obtained from his father in 1901
and which his father had claimed from
the Government in 1916. When the pa
pers were to be drawn up Mrs. Schrelner
was unwilling to see the old home 60 and
refused to sign them, and the sale was
declared off. In December last the farm
was again sold for consideration of $S,-
400 and the necessary papers duly drawn
and signed by both. After the papers
were signed both Mr.. and Mrs. Schreiner
regretted their act and promptly PAID
$500 besides the purchase price to recover
their home from the purchaser. Sickness
and inability to run the farm any longer,
their children having all left the ola
home, compelled the aged couple to sell
their treasured home for the third time

JOY IN LONDON.
News of Cronje's Surrender Received
with Wild Demonstrations.

with Wild Demonstrations
The news of Gen. Cronje's surrender
reached London Tuesday morning during
a sudden downpour of rain and spread by
word of mouth almost before the extra
papers appeared. Englishmen thawed at
once. Absolute strangers stopped IN the
streets, shook hands and slapped each
others backs. In office buildings some
went down the corridors hammering
doors and shouting the glad tidings.
Many rushed to the telegraph offices,
while excited throngs blocked the win
dows and flags were run up everywhere.
A stranger entering London would not
have known the town. The usual stald
Englishman for the moment was insane
with joy. Proceedings on the stock ex-
change opened with the singing of God
Save the Queen" and then the Jubllant
brokers cheered Roberts, Kitchener and
everybody connected with the war again
and again.
Pail Mall was thronged, and the war
office packed with shouting and cheering
crowds. Congratulations were exchanged
on every side 1t was really the first
chance the public has had to jubilate, and
no one seemed to neglect the opportunity.
The fact that it was the anniversary OF
the battle of Majuba Hill added to the
effectiveness of the news, carrying as 1t
did the avenging of the disastrous defeat
the British had sustained nineteen years
ago. Gen. Cronje's surrender will have
a far-reaching effect. 1t opens the south
ern Free State to the British and iso-
lates the Beers in northern Cape Colony.
The Beers, it is known, are now collect
ing for the defense of Bloemfonteln,
where another battle is likely to occur,
but the Transvaal is still untouched. A
stubborn resistance is expected there.
On Saturday and Sunday, Feb. IL and
IS, an attempt was made to take CronJe,s
position by assault, but again the Beers
demonstrated their ability to stand off
infantry attack, and the British were
treated to a deadly fire against which
they could not advance. On Monday,
Feb. 10, Cen. Roberts arrived. He saw
the futility Of attempting to storm the
Boer position and ordered a cessation of
these tactics. Instead he brought up the
artillery around the Boer lager and
opened a terrific bombardment, mean
while employing the infantry in an attack
on the Boer re-enforcements who were
coming to Cronje's relief. Until Thurs
day the bombardment continued unabat-
ed and it was reported that the beleag-

Field Marshal Lord Roberts, V. c.,
the commander-in-chief of the British
forces in South Africa, to whom Gen.
Cronje surrendered, was born in Gavin
pore, India, in 1882. His early years
were spent in England. He did not know
his father until he was 20 years of age.
He received splendid military educa-
ton in England. The success he won in
the Indian mutiny led to his eventual pro-
motion to be commander-in-chief of the
Indian army. Roberts is quiet and retir-
ing, cool and a keen observer. He says
little and appears to be always thinking
out a great plan. He is devoted hus-
band. His love for his only son did not
prevent his unremitting zeal in perfecting
the South African campaign after the
news was sent to him that his son had
fallen in battle.

supported by great steel girders. The
general seating arrangement is modelled
somewhat after the plan of the Metro
politan Opera House, New York.
The floor space is divided into arena,
arena balcony, balcony and roof garden,
boxes skirting the arena and the arena
balcony. The stage is situated in the
center of the arena. The total seating
capacity is nearly 10000, and, with
standing room, the building is capable of
holding more than $4,000 persons. The
arena alone will seat 1900. To each
side of the arena and under the first
balcony are numerous committee rooms,
which have their separate street en-
frances. The building has no stairways,
the upper seatings being reached by
means of inclined planes. Separate exits
are used for the balconies and roof gar
den, and it is estimated the hall can be
emptied at the rate of 5000 persons a
minute.

George McCourt Not Guilty.

The trial of George McCourt, charged
with the murder of John Roehl in the
Circuit Court at Jefferson, is ended. On
March II, 1899, McCourt and his son
Philip drove with load of hay over a
meadow owned by Christian Roehl, and
did great damage The sons of Roehl
went down to stop them. In the quarrel
John Roehl brought his ak to position
as if to hit McCourt. Philip, seeing his
father in deadly peril, struck John with
a pitchfork, causing his death. The pros
ecution tried to show that the blow was
struck by the ak in the hands of Nc
Court. The defense brought evidence
that the blow was struck by Philip Nc
Court to defend his father. The jury
brought in a verdict of not guilty.
