After c. G. & SHAY Open Road
Through to Charleston.

Negotiations have been opened
again for the acquisition OF the Char
lesion, Clendennin and Sutton rail-
road, In view OF extending it through
TO connect with the Baltimore & Ohio
system, and to open up for develop
ment the coal and timber wealth
along the line says the Gazette.
The deal would have been consummat-
ed some time ago but for an unfavor-
able report made by minerologist on
the coal deposits of the Elk region.
This report was made after a mere
superficial survey had been made OF
the coal deposits OF the Elk country,
and in the absence Of any prospecting
OF critical examination OF the seams,
either as TO number, thickness or
quality. With more thorough aud
complete report of the coal deposits,
which will give favorable showing,
it Is believed that capitalists can be
induced TO take hold of the line and
push 1t through. The Elk river coun-
try abounds In vast natural resources
and there will be no difficulty la find
Ing capital ready 30 invest In their de-
veiopment IL they are made apparent.
Not only would the completion OF the
line open up region rich in natural
wealth, but 1t would also form a
leading line for travel and traffic
through the center Of the State from
North to South. The completion OF
this road means much to Charleston,
and the negotiations to that end will
be watched with great interest.

They had Been Playing Since the
Season Closed.
Ike Hickman was In town on Fri
day. He said that Charles has reach
ed home from Cuba where he has
been playing ball for some time. The
New Yorks and the Brooklyns went
down there after the close Of the sea-
son to spend the winter A boycott
on the part OF the Cubans spoiled the
plan and they came home.
A Cuban team wanted to play with
the Americans aud share the receipts.
This was refused at first and the Gu
bans organized boycott which soon
resulted in the series being abandoned
and nearly all OF the players returned
home. Enough were left to play with
the Cubans.
Charles says that he doesn't want
any more Cuba in his. There were
six hundred cases Of yellow fever in
Havana and the sanitary conditions
were awful. He will leave in a few
days on trip to England.

he saw him. and learned that instead
of being crazy the fellow was getting
over drunk and was perfectly harm
less. The man had a $50 bill changed
at a certain place Monday night. but
last night when he was at the same
place he did not have cent. The sup.
position is that all his money went for
drink.

two dinners and drank twice as much
wine as they wanted waiting for the
distinguished Nebraskan to arrive. At

a hearty welcome. He remained about
an hour, Mayor Van Wyck joining the

FROM BOER SOURCES.

Story of Sundays Fight on the Uppe,

BoER CAMP, Upper Tugela River,
Sunday, Jan. 21.-After Commandant
Botha checked the British advance yes
terday morning it was expected there
would be no further action until tomor.
row. This afternoon, however, signs
were discerned of an intended move
ment in the British northern camp.
When the heat, which was more fright
full than any yet experienced, had worn
off the British cannon started i'll full
force and the infantry advanced in ex
tended order.
Generals Botha and Cronje held the
high hills over which the read to Lady.
smith passed. When the Mauser fire
opened a pandemonium of sound filled
the air. The vindictive crash of lyddite
shells, the sharp volleys of Lee-Met.
fords and the whiplike crack of Mausers
were interspersed with the boom of the
Maxims. The
Battle Ended With Darkness,
but not without evidences of execution
among the British that were manifest at
sunrise. Field Cornet Ernst Emilio
was killed.
At the central position, Swart kop,
where the other road to Ladysmith
crosses the hills, the British advanced
from low kopjes on the banks of the Tu.
gela unmolested. Then they entered
the zone of Mauser fire and, although
their naval guns kept up the usual
racket, the advance was stopped and tbs
British had to count out their dead and
wounded.
Commandant Villejoen and two
burghers were knocked senseless by an
explosion of lyddite, but Commandant
Villejoen recovered. Field Cornet He'll.
bron was wounded and on refusing tc
surrender was shot.
