BUT FEW TO OPPOSE HIM.
Butler Captured Hill Held by Very
Small Force.

London, Feb. "a dispatch dated
Frere Camp yesterday. probably written
within the advanced lines Wednesday
says:
1.-The forces of the enemy are on both
our TANKS and continue TO render our
position extremely difficult TO MAINTAIN.
This makes it evident that Gen. Butler
after devoting Wednesday to bringing
more artillery and troops across the Ill-
celia. was badly in need of reinforcements.
1t is still more patent that it is infpoSSl-
BILE for him to advance until the artli-
lery has been enabled to take up forward
positions for the purpose of subduing the
Boer guns on both TANKS. Upon the
length of time occupied i'll this opera
tion depend the duration of General $
R1lJler's maintenance of the defensive.
Almost all the critics now point out
that the mere pushing through to- Lady
smith without securing decisive victory
ON the way there would only add danger
to what is already a critical situation.
Another Frere Camp dispatch says a
Boer prisoner asserts that the burghers
expected General Butler to cross at
Slziot's Drift and that thousands of Beers
were being posted at Doom Kloof to op-
nose such a passage, while on the cap
t7rred hill there were only Il few hundred
JChannesburghers.
This tends to increase the anxiety of
those who believe that General Butler
has scarcely begun the serious part OF
his advance, though encouragement Is
cleaned from the news that the heavy
naval guns after repeated attempts dur
inc which the mules rolled down the hill,
have succeeded in reaching the summit
of Zwart's kop, whence they are doing
excellent practice.

THE REASON WHY

The inquiry is sometimes made, why
is it that the Greensboro Institute for
the cure of the whiskey and morphine
addictions so far outstrips all other
branch Institutes?" 1t is simply Il mat
ter of cause and effect. The manage
ment is of the best and the physician
in charge thoroughly understands this
branch of the profession. The patient is
made to feel that he is at once among
friends. and he accepts the remedies of
fered him. in good faith. The result is
that a speedy cure is an absolute GER
tainty.

The fires in northern Minnesota are

and unless a heavy rainfall comes
great damage is likely to result. The
conditions are similar to those of the

Northern near Stony Brook are re-

report has reached Duluth from
Lakeside, a suburb six miles east,
that timber few miles north of there
was burning and the fire appeared to
be widening its area rapidly. The wind
is from the south, but not strong.
There has been no loss of life in the
bush fires in Manitoba so far as known.
All the persons missing have turned
up. Fires along the Southeastern were
still raging Monday, and the exact
amount of damage or loss OF life is
not ascertained. The drivers and
bushmen have scattered in all direc-

are known to have reached a place of
safety. The remainder are doubtless
struggling desperately through the

THE DEWEY-SPANISH EPISODE.

Europeans have often accused Amer
leans of neglect of the diplomatic pro-
prieties, and the charge is likely to be
repeated now. in view of the invita-
tion which was sent to the Spanish
minister at Washington to be present
at the celebration soon to take place
in Chicago in honor of Admiral Dewey.
OF course the invitation to the Duke
d'Arcos was an oversight. All the 9TH
er diplomats in Washington were to
be asked to appear. and the clerk who
wrote the invitations sent one to the
Spanish minister without thinking Of
the impropriety of asking that official
to take part in festivities to commem-
crate an event which was disastrous
to his country. The apology which has
just been made by the American min
lister in Madrid to the Spanish govern
ment will make it plain to Spain that
no offense was intended.
