The LAWTON FUNERAL.
Attended By High officials and Throne
of Citizens.

Washington, February S.-Maj. Gen.
Henry w. Lawton was buried to-day at
the national cemetery at Arlington.
Services at the grave We're preceded by
services at the chruch of the Covenant,
where President H. M. Stryker, Of
Hamilton College, New York, delivered
a. funeral oration seldom equalled in
beauty Of expression, nor could it have
been in more perfect accord with the
spirit Of the solemn occasion. Never In
the history Of THE capital has there been
more representative gathering of the
to the nations thonored dead. Mo mark
of military ponp and ceremony the reg
ulations could provide was wanting to
render the occasion solemn and impress
sive. Nearly all the available troops of
the regular establishment remaining in
this country were called out. Three
Thousand men, infantry, cavalry and ar
tillery, followed the flag-draped coffin
to the grave. Every department. Of the
government paid official tribute. Flags
hung at half mast The president and
cabinet, representatives of the supreme
| court, the house and senate, the army
and navy, combined Ito fill the darkened
church to the utmost. But these official
| representatives OF the people were lost
in great crowds that surrounded the

ARIZONA WORK NEARLY ENDED.
The Business Of the court Of Private Land
Claims Nearing Al End

The United States court of private
land claims is in session in our city.
This term will in all probability close
it's work, so far as Arizona Is concerned.
The court has done the territory and
the government good service. Its deci-
sions are accepted as equitable and just.
The good results which have come to
Arizona and New Mexico through the
arduous labor Of the judges and other
officers of the court has been a triumph
for law and able judicial decisions.
These satisfactory results speak we'll
for the membership of the court and Its
efficient officers. The Star hopes in the
interest of the great west that congress
will enact a law enlarging the jurisdlc-
tion Of this court to all public land and
mine controversies, and then make the
court permanent. Such a court would
prove a great relief to the supreme
court of the United States, as we'll as

HOT TIME ON TUGELA
Beers Again Drive British Across
That Troubled Stream With
Constant Smelling.
SURRENDERED A KOPJE
Held a Hill Top Long While, But Con-
cluded the Beers Gould Have It and
Vacated Under the Fire Of the
Dutchmen.

Koodoesberg Drift, February 9.-The
Beers yesterday made "a determined at
tempt to drive the British from a hill
commanding the drift. Mounting two
7-pounders at the northern extremity
they shelled the positions Internationally
the whole day. The SeaforJfl highland
ers gained a position ON a rocky sum-
NIT and kept up a Sustained rifle fire,
but suffered somewhat from the Boer
Smelling. A battery was sent and sue
ceeded in silencing the Boer fire. Mean
while two companies Of the Argyll
Highlanders advanced along the plain
in a westerly direction and found the
Beers intrenched at a small drift. A
sharp engagement followed, lasting the
whole day. General Macdonald now
only required sufficient TROOPS in order
to completely surround the Beers. Cen
eral Darlington was dispatched from the
Modder river with large force of cav
airy and two horse batteries, but failed
to reach here, although he started early
enough in the day to enable him to get
here early this evening. This morning
the infantry still remain in the old po-
sition. General Methuen has ordered a
retirement to the Modder river, which is
now proceeding. The British losses are
fifty men.
Head Lager Ladysmitfh, February Z.
Am arnored train yesterday made a
so1'tie from Chieveley toward Colenso
and landed 1000 British troops on the
right of the Boer position. The Beers
immediately crossed the river and made
an attack with rifles, the artillery fore
ing the withdrawal of both the train
and troops to- Chieveley. The fighting
on the upper Tugela river lasted until
$3.50 O'Clock yesterday evening. Partic-
ulars ARE lacking. The firing at Colenso
and along the upper Tugela has been
proceeding since % clock this morning.
London, February 9, 2:35 p. m.-There

way would only add danger to what is
already a critical situation. General
Hector MacDonalds retirement from
Koodsdorp created disappointment. But
the operation was apparently only in
tended as a sortie, and its success or
failure could scarcely have resulted in
any material effect on the campaign.

TRA1PS, THEN.

The two things that now worry and have
worried the democrats are the improved times
and the loot of the school fund. This lost
thorn in democratic flesh we pass over just
now, in Iorder to take up the prosperity
issue and look it square in the face.
During the latter years of Cleveland's add
ministration there were stimate to be
4 600, 900 tramps, composed of boys, men,
women and children. But most of these
tramps were young men.
Now let our democratic brethren come
right up this proposition and take a square
look ut at.
Did all these men, women and children
tramp for fun? Did they freeze, sicken and
die of cold and hunger just for fun? Did
the father put the last penny that he had
into his wife's hand, that she and her child.
might not starve, and then hit the ties or
railroad tracks for the city in search of work
and find none, Just for fun?
Did 4,000,0 600 people tramp? Yes, and
many of them persisted. Many a young
nice Christian home, was forced to tramp
and hunt for work or stay at ZONE and
starve in the midst of poverty. He wouldn't
do it, but tramped, and while he wandered
pinched, starved, spit upon, up and down
the earth, many a sad-hearted mother sat
at her hearthstone alone, amid the squalor of
poverty, and as she thought of other days
when her husband and boys were with her,
she sang in a minor strain, as the tears rolled
down her cheeks, "Where is my wandering
boy to-night?'
All this for democratic days. All for
Cleveland days. And shall we see 4 ,O0O,0OO
of our people again sent out on the road to
%starve and die Just for fun? Just to have
, Bryan elected? just to have Is to |? Just
to make ridiculous asses Of ourselves on
'militarism' and ''imperialism?' Well,
Z hardly. The mothers, fathers, sons and
daughters have not forgotten the days that
j We're evil. and they were democratic and
{ they don't want them to return.

Nearly Ons-Figbth Of the Country IL
Kept for Their Benefit

A recent parliamentary return gives
some startling figures In relation to
Scotch deer forests. The returns re-
late to the six highland croftlng coun-
ties only--the counties OF Argyll. In
verness. Ross and Cromarty. Suther-
land. Caithness, Orkney and Shetland.
In the Orkney and Shetland islands
there are no deer forests. SO we have
practically to deal with four counties.
In these four counties there are no
less than 2.2s7. 297. or more than two
millions and a quarter, acres given to
the preservation OF deer. Foresting
has proceeded apace during recent
years. Since 1883 nearly 600, 600 acres
have been added 10 the forest acre
age. The whole area Of Scotland In
acreage is about $500. 900; 1t follows
that, reckoning the forests In four
counties alone. one acre in every eight
and a half is kept waste Cor the rear
ing of deer. In order that On a few
days In the year a few person may
enjoy the killing Of a certain number
OF these beautiful animals this vast
area Is. for the most part. sealed
against the intrusion of man. No one
but the owner and his friends and
keepers may set foot ON mountain or
glen. The total area under tillage in
Scotland is about $500. coo. If.there-
fore allowance Is made for the for-
ests in other highland counties. II
seems probable that the total acreage
of deer forest is not far short OF that
under crop, II Is some consolation to
learn that in the four counties In
question the forests are assessed 10
rates at over fl00. 900. Certainly the
subject with which Mr.. Bryce now and
again essayed to deal is one which
grows IN Importance every year.-Lon-
don Times.
