these the advance was made. The horses

and intrenched heavily. Between the
lines Of trenches was an open veldt,
which had to be rushed under q heavy
fire not only from rifles but Of lyddite
and shrapnel from field guns.
Three forces assembled the three spurs
co.ordinately, under cover of fire from
the Free State Krnpps, a Creusote and a
big Maxim. The English tried to rush
the Beers with the bayonet, but their
infantry went down before the Boer
rifle fire as before a scythe.
The Boer investing party advanced
step by step until 2 in the afternoon,
when a white flag went up and $50 men
in the front trenches surrendered, being
sent as prisoners to the head lager.
The Boer advance continued on the
two kopjes east of Spion kop. Many

Toward twilight they reached the sum

further. The British Maxims belched

ter, under this pressure, gradually gave
way and broke, abandoning the posi-
ton.

Q. m. we commenced withdrawing the

Warren's force was concentrated south
of the Tugela without the loss of a man
or a pound of stores.
"The fact that the force could with
draw from actual touch-in some cases
the lines were less than a thousand
yards apart-with the enemy in the
manner it did, is, I think, sufficient evil

that we were permitted te withdraw our

QUEENS SPEECH.

Great Regret For the Loss of Life In.
Cured in the War.
LONDON, Jan. 31.-That portion Of the
queens speech at the reassembling Of
parliament relating to the South African
war was as follows:
"My Lords and Gentlemen: The peace
which hadrecently been broken in South
Africa, when last I addressed you, has,
unhappily, not been restored, but other
wise my relations with other states are
friendly. In resisting the invasion Of
my South African colonies by
the South African Republic and
the Orange Free State, my peo-
pie have responded with devotion
and enthusiasm to the appeal which
I have made to them, and the heroism
of my soldiers in the field, and my sail
ors and marines who were landed to CO.
operate with them, has not fallen short
Of the noblest traditions of our military
history.
II am deeply grieved that SO many
valuable lives should have fallen a sac
rifice, but I have witnessed with pride
and heartiest qualification the patriotic
eagerness and spontaneous loyalty with
which my subjects, in all parts of my
dominions, have come forward to share
in the common defense Of their imperial
interests. I am confident I shall not
look to them in vain when I exhort
them to sustain and renew their exer.
tions until they have brought this strug.
gle for the maintenance of the empire
and the assertion of it's supremacy in
| South Africa to a victorious conclusion.
II Will Require Funds.
"Gentlemen Of the House of Com
mons: The estimates for the public
service for the year will be laid before
you. The provision for military expen
diture must be largely increased on &C
count Of the charge for military opera
lions in South Africa. The experienc,
Of a great war must necessarily affort
lessons of the greatest Importance to tn
military administrations Of the country
You will not, I am convinced, shrin]
from any outlay that may be required t.
place our defensive preparations on
level with the responsibilities which tn
possession Of SO great an empire has lait
upon Us. At q time when several othe
nations are perfecting their naval pref
arations at the cost Of increasing effort
and sacrifices, the solcitude with whic
you have provided for the efficiency c
GU navy, and u coast defenses will a.
suredly not be relaxed"

A Liberal Offer.
Bismarck, N. D

The Northwestern which is
conceded the largest circulation is the
Minneapolis Tribune. AS an all round
purveyor of information and entertaining
reading it's popularity is the best proof Of
it's ascendency.
What the Daily Tribune is to the city
people the Twice Week edition of the
same publication, the Farmers Tribune,
is to that great majority of the people of
the state who are too busy to read a
daily paper.
The Twice-a-Week Farmers Tribune,
is. to all intents and purposes, the farm
er's daily. 1t is a condensation of the
news for the three days preceding the
date Of publication and it contains the
very latest news up to the hour of going
to press.
The Farmers Tribune does not pre-
sumo to take the place of the home
weekly, but it supplies the place just
outside of the sphere of the home paper,
and in this capacity it is of the highest
value to a large majority of the people of
the northwest.
The Bismarck Tribune has made ar
engagements with the publishers of The
Farmers Weekly whereby it is enabled
to make the most liberal and astonishing
offer we ever made.
If you are now a subscriber for the
Tribune we will send you The Farmers
Tribune (t~wice-a-week) with your paid
in-advance renewal Of subscription to
the paper. You thus get the two papers
for SIPS. No stronger inducement
could be offered.
The same offer is also extended to new
subscribers.
Do not delay taking advantage of this
offer. 1t will not be continued long.
You cannot afford to let this splendid
opportunity slip by. Send in your sub,
scription to the Bismarck Tribune and
get with it The Farmers Twice.a-Week
Tribune free.

PARLIAMENT ON
Lords and Commons Listen to the
Reading Of the Queens
Speech.
Deeply Regrets the Very Great
Loss of Life in South
Africa,
But Sees No Other Way Than to
Carry the War to Success
full Issue.

LONDON, Jan. 91.-The preparation
for the reassembling of parliament COM
menced in chilly, cheerless weather.
The members began to arrive at an un.
usually early hour. Hon. William
Massey ainwaring, Conservative mem.
Der for Central Finsbury wa the first
to arrive, entering the precincts OF the
house at 4:30 a. M, half an hour ahead
Of John Cumming Macedonia, Progressive
Conservative member for the Rother-
hite division Of Southwark, the second
arrival. The other members then began
to appear at shortening intervals. About
100 seats had been reserved by 10 o'clock,
when the yeomen Of the guard arrived
from the tower and with lighted Ian
terms carried out the usual search Of the
subterranean chambers and passages.
Met Under Exceptional circumstances.
There was nothing in the conversation
of the early arrivals to suggest anything
In the nature of a panic, and there was
little to indicate any keen desire to en-
barrass the government, but there were
evidences on all sides that members
keenly realized that they were meeting
under exceptional circumstances, when
preparations We're necessary to meet q
grave crisis.
Among the curious features Of the sit
uation, the house Of commons was to be
treated to the singular spectacle of Lord
Edmund Fitzmaurice, Liberal, member
Der for the Cricklade, or northern divis-
ion Of Wiltshire, moving a vote Of cen
sure on his brother, the marquis of
Lansdowne, secretary of state for war.
The session opened at 2 p. NJ, after
the customary formalities.
The gentleman usher of the black rod,
General Sir M. S. Biddulph, summoned
the commons to the house of lords at
2:05 p. M, where the lord high chancel-
Tor, Earl Halsbury, read the queens
speech.
The attendance Of peers and of the
public was not extraordinary.
After the reading of the speech the
house adjourned until 4 p. III. and the
commoners returned to their house,
which also similarly suspended its sit
ting until 4 o'clock.

Washington Lumbermen Fear Their Best
Lands Will Be Gobbled.
SEATTLE, Wash, Jan. 31.-The lum-
bermen Of the state are much alarmed
at reports that the Weyerhauser syndi-
cate, which purchased the Northern Pa
cific lands, has cruisers in the lumber
regions endeavoring to secure the best
lands. It is feared that the syndicate
will grab all the best ground. The ar
rival Of ex-G overnor Clough and other
members of the Clark Nickerson syndi-
cate recently formed in Minneapolis has
added to local lumbermen's anxiety. 1t
is believed that the two great concerns
will shut out local men from lands,
which they hold by a slight title. A
strong association here will consider the
situation at a meeting to be held soon.
Both new concerns are looking around
for sites for mills that promise to be
larger than any in the state.

LONDON, Jan. 30.-3:26 p. m.-Great
anxiety has been removed by the an
nouncement that Lord Dundonald'sc cav

isolated among the hills in the neighbor-
hood Of Acton Homes, are safe on the
south bank Of the Tugela river.

MAR1NETTE, Wis, Jan. 31.-Six men
were carried out on the ice during the
afternoon just north Of Menominee.
They are fishermen. When last seen
they were six miles out and drifting to.
ward the lake rapidly. A rescue party
left in a boat, but prospects Of rescuiag
the unfortunate men are small.

Usual Attempts to Minimize
South African Situation
Lacking.
Disposition Now to Face the DE-
ticulties and to Find a
Way Out.
Buffers Official Account of IT,
Fight and Some Comment
On 1t.

LONDON, Jan. 30.-2:17 p. m.-The
usual airy attempts to minimize the Sc.
riousness of the situation in South AT.
rica are entirely lacking, and it ia
frankly acknowledged that the most Sc
rious effort of the present war has dis
mally failed. There is no sign of awish
on the part Of the leaders Of public opin-
ion to disguise the ugly facts, but on the
contrary, there is a disposition to face
the full difficulties and discover the best
way out. In short, the policy voiced
everywhere is gathering up Of forces for
more effective blows. All hopes Of the
speedy relief Of Ladysmith have been
abandoned, and the consensus of expert
opinion urges the immediate shifting of
the theatcr of war from the rocky kop-
jes Of Natal, to the open veldt of the
Free State. One thing appears certain
another long pause is inevitable un-
less the Beers assume the offensive, be-
cause, even in the event Of General Bull
Ter further attempting to reach Lady
smith, the planning Of Il new move will
necessarily occupy time.
Afternoon Papers Draw Parallels.
The afternoon newspapers are draw
ing attention to the cloScness of the par
allel between the Federal attack Oh
General Lee, at Fredericksburg, and the
operations on the Upper Tugela.
C%uriously enough, too, there is visible,
especially i'll military circles, an under
current Of relief at the news that the
British are safely south Of the Tugela,
for the JUNIORS of Saturday had conjured
up visions Of an immense catastrophe.
The St. James Gazette returns to
scathing criticism of the language of
General Buffers reports. It says:
General Buffers reflection on the ter
ror he put into the foe reminds us of
things we have heard about Chinese
mandarins.
A Question of Troops.
The afternoon newspapers are dis.
cussing whence are to come the troops
Tor q p%rotracted campaign. It is be.
coming generally recognized that some
form Of compulsory service is more I'M
minent than previously thought of.
The st. James Gazette, however, sug-
gests that the solution of pouring more
and more troops into South Africa sa-
vors Of the Spanish action in Cuba, adj
ding that the solution Of making better
use Of the thousands already there has
never suggested itself.
The queens speech at the reassem-
bling OF parliament is awaited with un-
usual interest in the expectation that a
considerable increase in the naval and
military expenditure will be necessitated
by the lessons of the war and be alto
gether apart from the special war vote.

BATTLE OF SPION KOP.

General Buffers Official Dispatch Describ-
ing the Fight.
LONDON, Jan. 30.-The following is
General Buffers dispatch, dated Spear
mans Camp, Saturday, Jan. 81:
"On Jan. 20 Warren drove back enemy
and obtained possession Of the southern
,crests of the high table land extending
from the line of Acton Homes and Hon
gers Poort to the western Iadysmith
hills. From then to Jan. rs he remained
in close contact with the enemy. The
enemy held a strong position on a range
Of small kopjes stretching from north
west to southeast across the plateau
from Acton Homes through Spion kop
to the left bank Of the Tugela.
"The actual position held was per-
fectly tenable, but did not lend itself to
an advance, as the southern slopes were
SO steep that Warren could not get an
effective artillery position and water
supply was a difficulty.
"On Jan. % I asscnted to his attack
ing Spion kop, a mountain, which was
evidently the key Of the position, but
was far more accessible from the north
than from the south. On the night of
Jan. % he attacked Spion kop but
Found it Very Difficult to Hold,
as it's perimeter was too large and water
which he had been led to believe existed

found very deficient. The crest wa
held all that day against severe attacks
and a heavy shell fire. Our men fought
with great gallantry. I would espec
tally mention the conduct of the Second

Rifles, who supported the attack on tn
mountain from the steepest side and il
every case fought their way to the top

Here is an amusing episode in con-

respect to Gen. Gordon, had. placed q

their brains for a suitable present, UNI

of dogs, was suddenly struck With the
idea OF presenting toll Hung Chang a

was the owner. It was sent to Ii Hung
