Detroit. March 13.-In the village
elections throughout the state there
was such a splitting OH local issues as
to make it impossible to calculate the
state of political feeling between the
parties. At Royal Oak, in Wayne
county, two tickets were in the field,
the peoples and citizens. The former
got two of the trustees, Gus Don
dero and Albert Rupert, two saloon
keepers who have figured prominent
ly in the circumstances surrounding
the pugilistic aspirations of the Rev.
Josiah j. AXtell, the lighting parson."
AXtell recently returned and announced
that he would give up muscular Chris
tianity and would fight the saloon on
other lines. Dondero, with whom he
fought a five round draw, was on the
same ticket with him as a candidate
for trustee. Out Of % votes cast Mr..
AXtell received IA.
At Plymouth a vote was taken as
an expression on the saloon question
and the ants won out by n vote of
151 to 81. The anti-salOon element
won at North Adams and Morenci.

EVERY FOOT CONTESTED.
Roberts Hard March from Poplar Grove
to Dreifoutei1.

to DreifOutei1.
London, March ia dispatch,
dated Dreifontein, Orange Free State,
March IL, says: General Roberts
advance yesterday across the scorch-
ing plains from Poplar Grove to this
place, was marked by the most severe
engagement since crossing the Modder
river. The Beers stubbornly contested
every foot of ground, only fleeing at
dusk, when Lord Roberts threw most
of his troops against the center of
their weakened line.
"At the point where Colonel Broad
wood turned the Boer left he found
himself under the fire of their o.
FOUNDER. The Beers, however, ulti-
mately holsted the white flag. When
Colonel Bradwood advanced he was
surprised to find the Beers had taken
advantage of the cessation of fire to
escape in the darkness. The Trans
vaal prisoners showed they were en-
trely surprised by Lord Roberts tao
tics.
"A Free Slater whose house Presi-
dent Kruger occupied during the Boer
flight from Osfontein, said he COM
planned to the president about the dep
relations of the Transvaalers, where
upon the president replied No won
der we are beaten. The burghers en-
tered into t'le war to fight for a right
eous cause but now they have devel-
oped into horse and cattle stealers.'
