Government receded from its contention

of> s,lzerainty over the affairs of the
South African republic. Within a few
hours the English premier replied
through the Office of the secretary of
state for the colonies that the question
was too grave Il one to he answered with
put reflection. and the mex day the in
-asion of Natal by the Beers began, three
columns pouring in from the Free State
and the Transvanl. So far as can be es-
timated. about $4,000 Beers were put in
to the field, and as every man was Il fine
marksinan, fighting behind defenscs prac-
tically im%pregnable. the burghers had nd
vantages on their side that only numeri-
cal superiority, patience and time could
overcome. Therefore. the Beers scored
man, successes, the British suffering sew
rral disastrous defeats before they learn
ed the art of var as practiccd by the willy

President Kruger. having ut last come
to u realization of the hopelessness of the
situation, left Pretoria. the capital of his

as possible and make no report OH them

gone ahead of the eavalry to male arrange

The press dispatches from tae head-j

all agree that the Beers retired and tlat|
the British casualties We're slight.
While some newspapers regard tllej
practical surrender of Pretoria as thej
end of the war. there are others that dol
not venture such Il %s;nguinc opinion, con-;
tentins themselves by saying it IS the be-,
ginning of the end. They reca;. the fre-i
uucntly reiterated intention of the Bocrsi
to withdraw to the mountains Mt Lyden-i
burg, and find confirmation OF this Intent
ton in the fact that President Krugeri
has gone to Waterfalllioven From that1
place the main road runs du. north toll
Lydcnburg. They agree that il the prcs-l
ident was merely seeking to escape cam
ture he would continue his Journey to
Lourenzo Marques instead of hating at
Waterfallhovcn, which is no miles wcstl
of the eastern frontier of the T'rnnsyaal.
There remains, apparently, the possi-
bility of guerrilla war. but as this would
be hopeless and unavailing it is probable
the Beers, with Il certain hard good scnse;
which lies at the bottom of their charac-i
acter. will perceive the uselessncss OF
further resistance. The British autl.o1i-i
ties at Buluwayo think the Beers will! res
tire into Southern Rhodesia. Eyentsi
elsewhere in the field of WAR secm toi
dwindlc in comparison. Gen. Hunter re-
entered the Transvaal ut Muribogopani
Tuesday. The advance was made off the.
railway. Water is scarce, and all the
farms are deserted.
Maribogopan is half way between Vry-
burg and Mafclins. Gen. Buden-powell
is invading farther north. without oppo-
sition. In Northern Natal Utrecht has
surrendered to Gen. Hildyard, and Gen.
Lyttletoh is moving to Vryleld. Three
different correspondents estimate the
number of Beers at I.aing's Mex Mt abn,,t
10000.
There has been little fighting since
Bloemfontein was entered. Boer i,lnics
have retreatcd steadily, abandoning one
position after another, md offering no
opposition to Lord Roberts advance. The
Transvaal capital has been considered
'~'impregnnble." 1t is certainly so situate
ed and fortified that, had the Beers chos-
en- to defend it. a protractcd siege and
much sacrifice of life and treasure would.
have been required for it's reduction.

Media, Pa: Two children were dragged
from a burning house on the truck farm of
Stoer Bicklee May 81 =, their ~S-year-old.
brother, who. driven out by the flames.
was forced to leave his mother and he.
baby to perish. His mother, while carry
ing a baby and a lamp, fell ON the stair
way, the lamp setting fire to the house.
The carpet, saturated with oil from the
lamp burned fiercely, ard the boy realiz-
ing the house was doomed, dragged out
his brother and sister, who were intent on
rushing through the fire to their mother.
Then he returned for his mother, who
clasped her baby, but her weight was too
great for his little arms. and as the flames
were closing in on him he gave a last de-
spairing look AT the doomed woman and
fled, heart broken. To a place of safety.

AS for the Beers. whose brave and de-

odds commanded the admiration of the
world. they lose an identity which never
benefited them to AZ particular extent
and an independence which existed only
in name. President Krrgcr's govern

chief executive was more of u despot
than Russia's Gar; the burgher was not
a freeman in the American sense; he en-

thinking was lone for him and he cast
his ballot as directed. The South Afri-

women occupied an inferior position; re-

Preventing Strike Benefits.
New York: Justice Andrews, in the
suprcme court, has dissolved the sweeping
injunction against the Cigarmakers' Union
which prohibited the payment by MEM
bers of the union OF strike benefits, and
practically made it unlawful to contribute
to the support of a strikers family when
the head of the house was out of work.
The injunction dissolved was to restrain
temporarily the members of Cigarmakers'
International Union No. 144 from intcrfer-
ing with the business of tile plaintiffs, $.
Levy Il Co.
Justice Andrews says temporary in
junction was granted properly on the pa
l'crs before Judge Freedman, but that the
defendants have met the allegations. which
were largely on information and belief,
with specific denials of the material allie
cations by the different individual referred
TO i'll the moving papers. SO that the in-
Junction cannot lie continued. The aiie-
gallons OF the plaintiffs of threats Of in
timidation, the justice says. are not borne
out on all the papers presented.
With regard TO the payment of strike
moneys, the justice finds that the plaintiffs
have not proved the alleged purpose of the
payment. The plaintiffs said the moneys
were paid to keep up the strike and injure
the Plaintiffs. Judge Andrews finds that
the moneys were not paid to interfere with
or injure the business Of the plaintiffs, but
That The moneys were paid to the strikers
to support them and their families pending
the strike, for which an injunction will! not
lie.

CHRISTIAN GNoEAvoReRs.
Their Worlds Convention Promises to
BE 81 Great Gathering.

BE Il Great Gathering.
Tho first worlds convention of the
Young Peoples Society of Christian En-
dcavor will be held in London. beginning
July 10. This convention, promises to he
the greatest o m record; 10000 Americans,
the largest delegation that ever crossed
the sea i'll 4 body, are expected to be
present, and with the Endeavors in the
United Kingdom and those from the con-
tinent and other foreign countries, the to-
tai number will probably reach 10000,
representing 4,O0N.0O0 members. The
convention is to be held in the Alexandra
Palace, IN immense structure Just out Of
London proper.
The task of caring for such a great
crowd is one of no mean proportions and
many difficulties havc arisen in the path
of those who have in charge the arrange
mcnt OF the details for the reception of
is to find boarding places for the dele
gates. Every bed in the hotels, boarding
houses and private homes of the Endcav-
orcrs has been engaged for the cventful
week and still 5000 of the expected
guests would have no place to lay their
head, to shy nothing of filling their stom-
stSllS. LID ulhiCuItS CHu Dc uNefIeu,
however, in the minds of the managers.
1t is planned TO lodge these 5000 home
less ones in the Alexandra Palace. The
structure has a great banqueting hall
II this large room will lie divided off
into dormitories, enough of them to hold
1000 young women. This leaves $500
young men to be cared for and for this
army the managers planned to erect a
mighty encampment under canvas, like
n other army would have. One thou
sand tents are needed, but the job of get
ting them is a herculean one. All the
tentmakers of any consequence in Eng
land are engaged in turning out tents for
the great army of British soldiers who
are at war in South Africa. The munag-
crs of the convention were therefore
obliged to place their orders with small
tentmakers who arc also rushed with
work and so they hardly know where the
tents are coming from, but they do know
that none of the guests will be left out in
the cold. Another setback for the dele
