HIMSELF IN.

A very interesting little story is told
by a former associate of Mr.. Miller.
The actors ability in character parts
is beyond question, so it has not been
surprising TO see him occasionally in
roles such as he had in Sowing the
Wind and THE Master" His friend,
realizing that popular young leading
men, as a rule, do not like to appar in
the characters of old men, said to him
one day: My dear MILLER, aren't you
you afraid hat playing the characters
of old men will affect your popular
standing as a leading MANI"
"Oh. no." replied Miller. IF | play
the parts of old men while | am young,
they cant accuse me of being forced
TO play them when | grow older" st.

Undoubtedly the Burghers know the
peril of being caught between two ar
mics, to which they are exposed, and
as they all along have been eXcellently
served by the scouts, the movements
of General Butler are perhaps by no
means mysterious to them.
Generals French and Gatacre have
both been busy making reconnaissance

and the latter in the direction of Mol

T
Most Encouraging Condition of Pa
tients Reported.

Nearly four days have passed since
the shooting of Fred G. BOnfi,s and H.
II. Tammen. by Attorney w. w. An
dersOn, and the condition of the two
wounded men are steadily improved.
The doubts in the case of Mr.. Bonfils
have been by degrees swept away, I'M
til yesterday it seemed as If it were
practically certain that he would re-
cover. He talked pleasantly with his
attendants. and some of his more init
mato friends were permitted to visit
him at his room. His temperature was
normal, and his greatest annoyance
seemed to be his appetite. OF course
the danger of pneumonia or septic pois-
oning, the doctors say, is not necessari-
ly past. but the members of Mr.. Bon
fills family feel that his chances are
greatly increased toward a favorable
outcome.
In order to avoid the possibility of
exciting Mr.. BOnfils, he is not encour-
aged 70 talk of the shooting. He has
not been told about his wounds, so that
it is believed he is not aware of having
a bullet in his body. If he is kept on
his back, the bullet will probably re-
main in a fixed position, and it is
hoped it man encyst and cause no
further trouble.
DR.. Hart told Mr.. Tammen last night
that he was a remarkable instance of
a man having a normal pulse after hav-
ing gone through his experience. He
lost so much blood during the opera
tion Sunday that this struck the physi-
clan as strange. Mr.. Tammen said he
expected to be at his office within ten
days. He remarked last night that he
felt like a well man already, but was
remaining in bed to avoid all risks.

4 MASONIC TEMPLE.

erect a handsome temple in Rawiins.
A meeting Of the prominent mem
Lers of the order will be held at the
Masonic hall this evening to consider
The plans, location, etc. Every Mason
who has becn approached on the sub
ject is enthusiastic. II is proposed to
build a handsome three story brick or
stone with a frontage of 80 feet, max
ing We handsome double stores on the
ground floor. with the second floor di-
yided into offices and the third story
fitted up for a lodge room and banquet

Such a building would be "A mOnu-
ment to the order and the pride of the
own. By erecting such a building the
Masonic lodge would do more to ad-
vance the interests Of the city than
could be accomplished in any other
way.
Several sites have been discussed
but the two most in favor are the lots
now occupied by ]. A. Donnel's harness
store and ChatterLon & Fishback's law
office and the Candish blacksmith shop
corner.
Now is the opportunity for the Ma
sons to demonstrate their public spirit
The order is in a splendid financial
condition and the building of a hand

the members and instill new life into

.
London, Jan. 1.-THE silence regard
ing Natal is broken this morning by a
single item Of news from Pietermaritz-
burg that very heavy firing was heard
Monday in the direction of the Tugela
river. From this it is possible that the
hard fighting has begun, and that the
British are not being allowed to cross
the Tugela without fierce opposition.
On the other hand, it may be only a
bombardment preliminary to an as
sault on Colenso, or merely a heavy ar.
tillery fire meant to cover the flank
operations which are now generally be-
li"yed TO be going on in force on the
British left and to the eastward at
Potgeisters drift.
Reports emanatins from Durham and
trere that General Warren has moved
toward Weenan are now regarded as
officially inspired to distract from Cen
eral Buffers movement. No informa>
ton is allowed to pass as to the posi-
ton of the various columns which are
now forcing a passage of the Tugela.
One version places General Warren at
CClenso. According to another he is
with General Butler north of Spring
field.

ed during the past few days are not to

But, while the public is being kept

saying that the war office has not on
ly received Jews from General Butler
which it is keeping secret. but that
news has been of a most satisfactory
nature.
| am told on good authority. that
since Sunday morning the war Office
has been in possession of news which
1t cannot give out until the aim of the
combined movements of General Bull
Ter and Warren have been accomplish

in the demeanor of the high officials
of the war office in the last few days.
