These are the Candidates

The republican county nominating
convention meets at Bangor next We'd
nesday. Following is the field of candi-
dates for the principal offices:
Sheriff-W. j. Thomas, the present ef-
ficIent sheriff, will be renomInated with
out opposition.
Judge of probate-J. III. Johnson has
no opponent, and will be renominated
for a second term.
Clerk-This is the only place for which
there is any contest. There are two
candidates, Charles Il. Robinson of
Lawrence and Frank N. Wakeman
of Covert. Both are good repub-
licans and competent for the position,
and the friends of both are claiming
a nomination.
Treasurer-John Marshall will be re-
nominated without opposition.
Register. +. Taylor will be renomi-
mated without opposition.
Prosecutor-There is no candidate in
the field except David Anderson of Paw
Paw.
In view OF the situation, the convention
will probably be tame affair; there will be
no ballot except on the clerkship, and as
there are but two candidates for the posi-
ton, one ballot will settle it. There will be
nothing in the county convention to en-
gender factional differences this year

nearly 100 pupils, and will be in the

Magnet to pr.x a n,t

The hardened end of bit, or chisel,
broke of in bore hole 800 metres
deep, put down near Ostroppa, In Up
per Selisia, by Zoellner & Co.; and this
obstruction effectually prevented fur
ther boring of the hole, because all
the diamond crowns wore away, says
the London Colliery Guardian. After
the most various attempts had failed
to remove the piece of steel, the follow.
ing plan was hit upon by Engineer
Degenhardt of Gleiwitz. A soft steel
bar, 10 metres long and of seventy
millimetres diameter, was covered by
a single winding of india-rubber tape,
and magnetized by the current of n
small dynamo driven by the portable
machine employed for the work of bor-
Ing; and the current was kept constant
mt about thirty amperes by means Of Il
simple resistance coil. The steel bar
was let down into the hole unmagnet-
lied; and; when 1t reached the bottom.
the current was switched through the
conductor enclosed in the rope for let
ting down and drawing up. On the first
day that this method was employed the
piece of steel was drawn up to the sur
face, so that boring could be resumed.

London. April 24.-The strong body
Of reinforcements which Lord Roberts
sent to assist the relief OF Wepener and
to endeavor to envelop and cut on the
Beers from a retreat nerthward fur
nishes further evidence that the Beers
are assembled In much larger forces
around Wepener thn1f hnd hitherto
been supposed; and, aesthe Times, in
an editorial this morning remarks,
whatever may be the difficulties of
roads and rains, the Beers always ap-
pear to have guns, and sometimes big
ones, where they want them.
Karriefontein, mentioned In Lord
Roberts message to the war office, Is
nfteen miles southeast Of Bloemfontein.
Leeuw kop is two miles further south.
Apparently the British captured
faarde kranl Sunday night. The Beers
evacuated Leeuw kop during the night,
removing the gun, and the British oc.
cup1ed the kop the next morning.
Although the Beers appear to be of
fering stout resistance TO the British
advance, their position is dangerous.
They can scarcely delay further their
retreat northward without incurrins
the risk of being cut off. Usually they
nave been well informed regarding the
British plans and theysare not likely to
run such risk, especially as they have
partially accomplished their object In
drawing large forces from Bloemfon-
TEN on long marches and have there
py delayed the advance on Pretoria.
The Bloemfontein correspondent OF
the Standard, discussing the operations
at i-eeuw kop, says:
