The books tell us that the insects live

The child stopped crying as it took

man looked distinctly uncomfortable
and became interested in something
outside the window. The child looked
at the box a moment, then at the man
and, seeing nothing else, resumed his
wall, with much added wind. The
look of despair resettled on the face of
the woman with the headache, and she
gave convulsive shudder as she felt
her head beginning to jump.

baby and then leaned over to the stout

TRAPPED BY Beers,
Flower of the Army Walks Into an
Ambush Near Blomfontein.
SIX BIG GUNS CAPTURED
Vague Dispatches Say Few Lives wer,
Lost. But Make No Mention of
Prisoners.

London, April 2, & a. m. England is
reading this morning the story of an
other disaster to British arms in South
Africa. From bunshmans Kop comes
the story of a deplorable disaster to
Colonel Broadwood's force, which hap
pened 90 Saturday.
This force, which consisted of the
Household Cavalry the Tenth Hussars
two horse batteries and a force of
mounted infantry, under the command
of Colonel Pitcher was obliged to sur.
render in part, and lose six guns to a
Boer commander which ambushed a con.
voy sent out from Thaba N'Chu by Col.
Broadwood.
Vanguard of French,
Colonel Broad woods force was the
advance guard of General French's
cavalry division and has been as far
east as LadySrand in hope of intercept
ing Commander Groebler, who was
marching north with considerable force.
General French, owing to the rough
ness Of the county and the difficulty
of moving his transports and the conse.
quent weakness of his horses and men,
had returned to Bloemfontein with the
main force, after having learned that
Groe5ler had made good his escape to
the north.
Near to BlOemfontein.
Broaawood's column, however, con-
tinued as far east as Ladybrand, eighty
miles from Bloemfonteiu. Then,
French having withdrawn and several
bodies of Beers having centered about
Lady brand, Broadwood made hurried
match back to Thaba N'Chu, where he
went into camp, evidently feeling Sc
cure from the fact that he was so close
to Bloemfontein and General French
with his main force.
Very little has been learned SO far as
to just how the disaster to Broadwood's
force came about. 1t is clear however
that a large force of Beers attacked
the garrison, which withdrew in the
night to the Bloemfontein waterworks,
followed closely by the enemy, who
continued to shell the camp.
Forced to Surrender.
A convoy was made up and the two
horse batteries started toward Bloem.
