that existed in Washburn have

but few quarantined houses at the

spread of the disease since it was
known that small pox really existed,
and the few cases that there have
been were all of a very mild type.
The scare that existed has complete

disease is felt in the city.

The base ball games around the bay
are fast loosing all traces of their for
mer amateur performance, but there
Still remains the one characteristic
OF a genuine amatuer layout that
seems to hang on with a logged
tenacity. The umpire, about every
other inning is subject to an arrant
calling down by any one of the play
ers, and being deprived of the power
to either ''bench' or fine a "kicker. D
is compelled to put up with the
abuse of anyone who takes it
iuinnon himself to call him down. I"
This is not only a nuisance for tie
delaying of games, but in the major
.ity of cases is simply disgusting to
spectators, and some kind OF a
remedy by the management would
be highly appreciated by the patrons
of the ball park. Give the umpire
the power to put a man out of the
game, and then if the manager is un-
able to permit his being ''benched y
let the umpire fix fine of, say not
to exceed 800, for any one offence.
This we think would have a tend
ency to do away with some of the
ag-chewing that invariably accom-
panies ball game.

Of them in line. There will also be
numerous fl >,ts, each representing the
travelling men of the different GEN.

date, with elaborate costumes suited
for the occasion. They will also show
the different methods by which they
travel. including the pack mule, stage
coa ches, buckboards, freight trains and
Pullman cars. The hotel accomoda-

trips. The boys are making special

London, August 27.-Lord Roberts
reports as follows:
"Buller's division marched to Van.

yesterday. His casualties were 20.
''Paget reports from Hammanskraal
that Baden-Powell engaged Grobler's
rear guard all day yesterday. Grobler
was driven back east OF Pinaar river.
Baden-Powell occupied the railway
station of that name. During the
fight Baden-Powell's advance and that
of the enemy galloped into each other,
the Rhodesians losing Colonel Spreck-
ley and four men killed and seven
wounded. Many of the Beers were
killed or wounded. They we're at Cy-

Hickman were closely pursuing them.
"It seems certain that Dewet finding
it hopeless to make his way eastward
has recrossed the Magaliesberg with a
few wounded, with the intention of re-
turning to the Orange River colony.
He was in very different condition
from that when he left Bethlehem with
six or eight guns and 1000 men. His
