LONDON. Feb 1G.-The following des-
patch was received at the War once at
( a m. today;
..JACOBSDAL, Feb16-t2 a. mD.-French,
with a force Of artillery, cavalry, and
mounted infantry. reached Kimberley this
evening. Thursday. ROBERTS.
This despatch shows that General French
relieved Kimberley last evening and that
Cecil Rhodes is no longer in danger OF De
ing captured by the Beers.
When the news that Lord Roberts had
succeeded in pushing General Frencas
force forward. and had relieved Kimberley.
was received at the War Office, none Of the
officials were present, but hurried mes
sages brought them. consultation was
held. and then Lord Roberts message, at
$50. was posted on the bulletin board.
Its date. "Jacobsdal'' shows that Rob
erts has also captured that Boer strong
hold. The fact that no information has
been given out as to what fighting, II any,
French and Roberts did. is taken 70 mean
that General Crouje, upon realizing the
strength and object OF Roberts movement
has retreated.
There is also the possibility that cronie
at Magarsfontein has been hanked on the
cast by French, and that the major part
Of his force is now cooped up between
Methuen. at Modder River, and French at
Kimberley. with Roberts on his left, at
Jacobsdal and no chance for escape TO the
west.
1t is hardly possible that the Beers hive
been able to retire to Bloomfontein for the
route OF Roberts and French lay across the
path thither from Magarsfontein. II they
have attempted to retreat northward it has
been an inglorious rout. with undoubted
loss OF their Ieavy guns. followed by pur-
suit which will annihilate the force
Many critics, however, are not inclined
to take such a rosy view Of the matter,
and 10 is believed by them that the Beers
retired and permitted French TO reach
Kimberley which is of no especial mill
tary importance, and that a Bocr surprise
may result
The relief Of Kimberley, after four
months close investment. is also a relIts
to England. When the War Office issued
the news this morning few persons, be
sides the newspaper men, were in the
building, but crowds quickly assembled.
Other excited crowds assembled at the
Mansion House TO read the bulletin.
In his dispatches TO the War Once,
Lord Roberts makes no mention Of what
opposition General French met. The de-
spatch is dated Jacobsdal, which has hith-
erto been Cronie's base OF supplies.
Il is thought likely that large numbers

That Dawson Camp will at no dis

generally conceded by those who are
intimate with the locality and the
work done. The work is not confined
to one or two properties for men are
developing claims in every direction
from the Copper King; still the latter
property is being the most vigorously
pushed.
A short time ago car load of ore
was shipped to Pueblo for treatment
and the returns show q value of $l8.-

pectstion of the ownerA
The main shaft is down l37 feet
and as soon rs $50 feet is reached,
which will occur next week. a level
will be started. From this level the
ore will be shipped for mother test.
The rock is getting muA harder and
indications point to finding the rock
in place before the I5Os;feet in depth
is reached. Another good indication
is the fact that from the 100 foot
depth to the present ~ gold value

One thing which has puzzled the
owners has been supply OF water
how to obtain one. Prospecting was
done in Csssedy Gulch, south Of the
mine, and at a depth Of only eight
feet flow of water was struck, the
flow Of which was SO strong that the
workmen could not bale it out of the
hole. As soon as this water can be
taken care of the hole will be sunk if
possible to bed rock, when q cement
bottom and wings will be constructed
and the water piped to the mine.
There is sufficient water now to run
small mill.
At 100 feet depth the mineral vein
is SO feet wide, all the ore making
good concentrates, the gold values Of

makes it good shipping proposition.

Greenwood Post No. 10, G. A. R.,
of this city has just started a move
ment having as its object the erec-
ton of a monument to the unknown

one dollar each. As soon as the
amount, $75, is raised the monument
will be erected.
Greenwood Post does not often ask

the expense of erecting such q monu-
ment, the comrades do not feel able
to bear alone, therefore, ask the citi-
zens to contribute at this time.

ng students:

The object Of the visit to this city
was to study field geology through
examining the mountains so as to
ascertain the outcrops, dips, etc., of
the rocks. Also to gather fossils in
which this region is rich. The work
was dif6cult and laborous yet the
young gentlemen donned the miners
rough garb. and armed with specimen
sack and prospector's pick scaled the
mountains sides and were richly re-
warded for their toll. Prof. Hollick
says the visit to Cahon was not upon
the original itinery, but being at
Victor thought the trip could be
easily taken and now that he has seen
the territory II wonderfully pleased
that be turned his course this way.
