There must be several hundreds Of

These structures look strong enough
to bear any weight. The same can be
said of the iron bridges, especially Of
that which crosses the Seine from
"Old Paris" to the Transportation
building. In fact, every bridge for
which the exposition authorities are
directly responsible may be said to
be perfectly safe. In the Midway"

not 70 true. Light and airy bridges
Of plaster, staff and stucco, are to

the celebrated painter. will be buried
at Budapest. ~ -s..tt. NJ
The real name of the great painter
was Michael Lieb. This he changed
to Michael Won Munkacsy, from the
little Hungarian village of Munkacs,
where he was born on October 10,
1916.
Munkacsy was carpenter before he
became painter. His parents were
very poor, and the artist had to work
with all his soul to attain anything
like prominence. His pictures are not
what is described as fine art by the
best critics, but they are known wide
ly and the masses in many lands and
climes have seen them and admired
them. Munkacsy has been universally
known as painter for twenty-five
years. In 1870 he exhibited in the
Paris Salon the first painting he felt
was worthy Of his genius. 1t was the
now celebrated picture. "The Last Day
of a Condemned Prisoner" Although
severely condemned by the critics Of
all countries and of every city, the
Magyar carpenter made the world talk
about him and his work. His reason
was detroned a few years ago. .s

Thabanchu, May 3 (afternoon).-
Gen. Hamilton's division was engaged
yesterday and today in forcing pas
sage northward. At Houtney the Boer
front held line of hills commanding
the sides Of the mex. The Canadians
and Gordons attacked the hill to the
left, and the Shropshires and Mar
shalls horse, supported by q battery,
also made an attack on the enemy,
who finally fed, leaving many wound
ed, and the passage was cleared. The

removal to safer place. The Beers

London, May 3 a a. m.).-Fighting,
heavier than any since Ladysmith,
seems to be imminent near Thabanchu.
The dispatches of Lord Roberts dated
Monday and Tuesday show that the
Boer rear guard, stubbornly resisting
his advance, forced the British on Sat
urday and Sunday to act chiefly on the
defensive. Gen. French, who is direct
ing the operations, has at least $4,000
men. Some estimates give him 10000.
The Beers are estimated to be at least
5000 strong and possibly 10000. Ac-
cording to q dispatch from Pretoria
dated April % they were expecting to
give battle and have numerous artil-;
lery. So long ais the Beers engage the
attention OF half OF Lord Roberts
force at Thabanchu his advance toward
Pretoria will be delayed. No one here,
however, considers that Gen. Botha
will be able to stand longer than few
days. The feeling is that he must be
beaten on by the masses of Lord Rob-
erts. A dispatch. dated Ladysmith,
May l, says: There is renewed &C
tivity among the Beers on this side
of the Drakensberg mountains. Prep
arations here to check an advance are
complete"
me Beers attacked the British out
posts at Boshof, the headquarters of
Lord Methuen, on April %, but with
out result. The British guns at War
renton shelled the Beers out of their
half-constructed trenches Sunday. A
British accommodating party fell into
the hands of the Beers near Windsor

from Mafeking to Ootsi, sixty-one
miles north, on April %, with dis

lies. That to the Morning Post says:
I'VE can stick it out for two months or
more. Nobody minds" Col. Plumer,
who appears to have been reinforced
lltely by more Rhodesans, seems, to
be advancing again. A dispatch to
the Times from Mafeking, dated April
20, says: "A side light is thrown upon
the hungry condition of the garrison
by the fact that the united efforts of
the white and natives have recently
been devoted to catching a swarm OF
