TAkEN BY SURPRISE.
Lord Roberts Again Drove the Beers to
Hasty Retreat.

London, March S.-The following was
received today from Lord Roberts:
Poplar Grove, March s.-Two brigudes of
cavalry with horse ARTILLERY and Kelly
Kenny's division, marched tod ten miles
eastward.
The Beers we're taken by sur prise yester.
day. They moved off 80 hurriedly that
they left cooked dinners behind. We cap.
tured "A Krupp gun aud several tents and
wagons. The total casualties were; Killed:
Licuts. Keswick and frieslick.
Wouudeds Lieutcnants Bailey OF the
Twelfth Lancer- aud D~ecrispigney OF the
Secohd Lille guards, both Sc vercly, and
Lent. Smith Of the Shropshires, who is
believed to have been picked up by n Boer
ambulance. Two men were killed, IG were
wounded, and one man is missing.
Gatacre reports that he intends occupy
inc Burghersdorf tonight. Repairs To the
railroads towards both StOrmbcrg and
Steynsbers ARE being pushed.
Clements now occupies Norvalspont, on
the south bank OF the Orange river. The
bridge was blown mp in February and the
enemy are holding the north bank of the
river, but not believed ia any great
strength.

Ing that his sentence Ii extremely
light for the crime committed, and
that there should be no interference
on the part OF those In authority.
This seems To be the opinion OF the
court officials and a majority Of the
jurors before whom The case was
tried. In soliciting signers we are
informed that the impression was
given all that Judge DuBose would
intercede in Dryers behalf-giyen
doubtless through misiniormation.
His honor says he has not intimated
any such purpose, though he has
been approached in the matter. He
positively refused to sign the petition
or give it his sanction in any form.
1t is due to the Judge of this district
TO make this point clear.
As to the Hurst petition, it merely
asks the governor TO make an inves-
tigation into the matter, and il the
facts are as represented, to exercise
executive clemrney. There il no harm
in signing such n petition, as the de-
mand is moderate and reasonable.
But in many cases there il n strong
appeal to the sympatbies which but
few can ignore, and justice Is
likely to be thwartcd through n lack
of firmness to withstand the plead
ings OF those who suffer for the
wrong-doing of another.

The NOME GOLD FIELDS

The first map folder or circular respect
ing the klondike gold strike of 1898 was
issued by the Northern Pacific Railway.
Ii is more than u coincidence that the first
map folder or pamphlet OF the Nome Min
ing district comes from the same source.
The present folder not only contains n
good map OF the Nome district but is EN-.
bellished with several cuts Of views at
Nome City and on the beach where the
method OF mining is clearly shown. All
Information obtainable regarding sailing
dates from Seattle and Tacoma, through
rates, ETC., is given in this book and the
public cautioned to go to the agents OF the
n. Z. Ry., who are supplied with diagrams
Of the Alaska Steamers, and arrange in
advance for their accommodations rather
than put off this very important business
until they reach Puget Sound. There is no
doubt but what there will be a very con-
siderable passenger business from the mid
die and eastern states and a very heavy
business from the Pacific Coast States to
the Nome district next spring.
For folders, rates, ETC., call on A. d. Edgar,
General Agent n. p, Helena, Montana, or
Chas. S. Fee, General Passenger Agent, st.
Paul, Mimi, and he will mail you the
Nome folder.

PEACE PROPOSALS
OF President Kruger Communioa ted through
American Ambassadors.

Paris, March IL, G:35 a. m.-The
Gaulois publishes the folio wing from
it's London correspondent:
According to good authority,
President Kruger and President Steyn
have not made a formal proposition
Of peace, but have asked the British
government, through the United
States, the conditions IL would ac-
cept for opening of negotiations on
the basis Of the independe nce of the
republics.
President Kruger Is alleged to
have said that he would accept med
iation, but the United States govern
ment, in transmitting this cOmmuni-
cation, took care to declare that it
did not assume any responsibility
for the initiative in mediation"
The London corresponds of the
MatiD says; II learn that United
states Ambassador Choate received
last evening a long and important
cable from the United States govern
ment relative TO South Africa which
he will communicate today to Lord
Salisbury"

Scarcity of Office Seekers.

C. W. Ellingwood Of Butte, chieI clerk OF

plenty OF applications from the thickly

The positions will furnish employment
to about 200 people. The compensation

Ia densley populated districts, the enum-

- cents for each farm and 20 cents Tor

In spursely populated districts higher per

to say that 1t il through no fault of

DEEPENING LAKE ERIE.
Project to Dam Niagara River 10
Meet the Elimination Of
Water.

The commerce Of the great lakes Is 5 o
vast that the lake waterway has be-
come almost as important as the path
across the Atlantic. In the lake navi-
gntion scason of 1899, more than $780,
NO bushels of grain, nearly 100000
barrels of flour, l3,0Or,0OO tons of iron
and 1000, 100000 feet of lumber passed
through the Sault Sainte Marie canal,
bound toward the cast and Europe.
Practically all this traffic, and an
additional amount from Lakes Mich
igan and Huron, pass through Lake
Erie. Erie is the shallowest Of all the
lakes, and the fac; is apparent that its
level is lower than il was formerly.
The possibility of its falling still more,
as a result Of the diversion of some Of
the water of Lake Michigan through
the great drainage canal from Chicago
to the basin OF the Mississippi, leads to
an apprehension that sooner or later
the effect will be harmful.
Now a project has been devised, and
a bill introduced in congress to carry il
into effect, 10 meet the diminution Of
the water of Lake Erie by constructing
a dam in the Niagara river near Buffalo,
and raising the level Of Lake Erie by
about three feet. Such n dam would
deepen the water of the Detroit and ST.
Clair rivers, and wnuld render more Sc
cure and easy the navigation of this
great waterway along which so impor-
tant a part of the food supply of the
nations is borne.
But 10 raise the level of Lake Erie
means to flood lands along its shores.
II means 10 food certain Canadian
lands, as well as americans; and this
would necessitate international ar
rangement and costly compensation.
For This reason. rs well as for the rea-
son that great pubic enterprises al
ways slowly. the conversion of
Lake Erie into n vast mill-pond will
probably be deferred FOR a long period.
