UP IN BETHEL

The Bethel country Is now connected
with Yorkville by telephone. The Bed
ford Phone company recently compile
ted its line to Glenn G. Riddles store,
and within a few weeks nearly the
whole township will be within reach.
A line was built to the residence of
Mr.. John F. Williams last summer, and
extended to the residence OF Mr.. John
F. Gordon and the Johnson Bros.-Mes
srs. H. E. and S. N. Last week the
extension was completed to Glenn G.
Riddles store, by way Of Mr.. G.. c..
Ormands and from there it is to go
to Riddles mill, by way of DR.. T. N.
Dulins. From Riddles mill, present
plans contemplate an extension to Mr..
Rufus J. Davis's, thence to Mr.. ]. S.
Harper's,' John McLean's, Perry Fer
guson's and DR.. Isaac Biggers, with
probably other stations along the
route.
The line described above, pretty
nearly follows the mail route from
Yorkville to Yorkville, except that
part of the Lincoln road between this
place and Johnson Bros. For the pres
ent, all the phones will be served by a
single wire; but as soon as the neces-
sary arrangements can be perfected, a
central office will be put in at john
son Bros.'s, adding to the convent
ence Of the subscribers mentioned.

THE B0ER WAR.

In view of the general impression
that the Boer war was about over, re-
cent developments in the Transvaal
have been the occasion of more or less
astonishment throughout the entire
world
Although almost everybody, except
the Beers, have long since conceded
their ultimate conquest, that is not
now so certain as it was. Indeed it be-
gins to look as if, after all, the sturdy
Dutchmen may at least win the most
liberal terms possible, If not actual lib
erty.
Although courage and numbers gen.
orally count for much, they do not
count for everything. That has been
fully demonstrated in the present war.
The existing conditions are not to be
overcome in this way-not in this day
of long ranged small arms in the hands
of people who know how to use them
and to get about quickly.
The Beers have the sympathy of the
entire population Of the Orange Free
State and Transvaal. They can get
supplies and shelter for the asking.
These things are even thrust upon
them The British have to pay for all
they get and can trust to the natives
for nothing, except hostility, open or
disguised, as may be more convenient.
The Beers have not yet developed
any military discipline; but they are
bound together by common interests
that serve the purpose as we'll. They
can manage to get along very we'll
without money, and If they can only
continue to hold the British up to the
present strain, something will soon
have to give way.
AS matters look now, it is not at all
improbable that the brave Dutchmen
may win out.

CONGRESS has appointed commit
tee to investigate the case Of Cadet Os-
car Booz, who died recently at his
home in Bristol, Pa, it is alleged from
his parents, from the effects Of abuses
received at the hands Of hazing West
Point cadets. Before he died. Booz
told his parents that the hazers had
made him drink a bottle of tobasco
sauce. An army court of inquiry has
the matter under investigation at this
time, and during the past few days has
examined a large number of cadets
who went to West Point as plebs with
Booz i'm 1898. The testimony before the
court, so far, has been to the effect
that Booz was not treated worse than
other cadets, and all Of the witnesses
insist that there was nothing brutal
in the hazing to which they were sub
jected. They make it appear that
Booz was a babyish. cowardly fellow,
and that he exaggerated the situation
to his parents. The congressional COM
mittee proposes to investigate the
matter thoroughly to the bottom, and
will probably be engaged upon it for
several weeks.

MASSACRE OF HRISTIANS.-Furthel
details of the massacre of Christians ir
Macedonia by Mussulmen, have beer
received from Salonica, says Vienna
dispatch of December 20.
Horrible outrages have been commit
ted in the village of Bituch in North
ern Albania. A horde of Mohamme
dams crucifed every Christian male In
the place, fixing them to trees with
stakes driven through hands and feet
Many of the women were outraged ano
all carried off to Mohammedan harems
Children were chopped up before their
parents eyes.
At Gruma, south Of Butcha, women
were violated in front Of their hus-
bands and fathers, and the men terri
by mutilated, having their ears, nm
gers, toes and limbs cut off, Many
children were drowned.
At Ribaritz, the entire population
was massacred after the victims flesh
had peen sliced off.
At Banishka, a bonfire was made OF
20 Christians, and at Genovitza priest
Of the Melukonics was tied in a sack
and thrown into the river.
The ringleader of the Mohammedans
is the fanatic Haiduk Islam, who boasts
of having slaughtered 200 giaours dn-
fidels) with his own, hands.
The Servian consul at Mitrovitza es-
Inmates the number of Christians killed
ed at 47O men, ITO women and 43O child
rem. He places the number Of Christ
ian women outraged at 3S5.
The Turkish authorities are indiffer-
ent to the outrages, though they were
committed in the sultan's domain.

MERE-M ENTI0N.

An Omaha, Nebraska, dispatch says
that Edward, the 15-year-old son OF
Edward Cudahy, the rich packer, is In
the hands of kidnappers, who offer to
return him for s25,00O.. Manila
cable says that there is reason to be-
lieve that many volunteers whose
term of service is about to expire, will
re-enlist. General Wood is report
ed to have summoned Marshall K. Mel
son, the famous scout who served un-
der General Lawton, to Cuba. The sig
nificance Of the summons Is mystery.
The government Of Chill has appro-
priated $500,000 to have the resources of
the country properly represented at
the Pan-American exposition to be
held at Buffalo, New York. ......A syn
dicate of Britishers has been organiz-
ed to buy a great ship and anchor 1t
three miles off the British coast, where
it will be used as a gambling place.
80. The record of prices for seats on
the New York stock exchange has been
broken again. A seat sold last Thurs
day for s51, 900. . The Russian pa
pers say that while Russia is not es-
pecially interested in the Nicaragua
canal question, the sympathies OF Rus
sia are naturally with the United
States. The Texas agricultural de-
partment estimates the cotton crop of
the state at 3,250,000 bales... ...There
has been talk of the resignation OF Sec
retary Hay because of the refusal or
the senate to ratify the Hay-Paunce-
fote treaty; but this talk is apparently
without reasonable foundation. The
senate is said to be rather inclined not
to repeal the tax on bank checks. 80.
There is a probability that Oklahoma,
Arizona and New Mexico may be ad-
mitted to the Union during the present
sessions of congress-. ....Turkeys are
worth 12l cents a pound in New York.
...... British capital is seeking invest
ment in American ship building plants.
.....At a meeting Of the Southern Ho-
seiry Spinning association, held in
Charlotte. Wednesday and Thursday, 1t
was agreed to advance the price OF
yarn to II cents pound on basis of
No. 10s.. Dispatches of yesterday
report heavy fighting in progress be-
tween the British and Beers. Colo
mel w. l.. Scruggs, of Atlanta, will
probably he appointed minister to Por-
tugal. Southern congressman and
senator's who have recently called up
on President Mckinley, say that the
president has decided to appoint only
white Republicans to office in future.
=. THE closing argument in the case
before the supreme court to decide
whether Porto Rico and the Philip
pines are parts of the United States or
colonies, was made Thursday. 1t will
be several days probably before the
court hands down an opinion.

A CORRESPONDENT of the Atlanta
Journal, a few days ago, secured from
ex-President Cleveland what The Jour-
nal claims to be the first authentic in
terview the ex-president has given out
since the general election. The gist of
the interview is to be had in this state
ment: I'm my opinion, the great need
of the Democratic party is to return
to first principles. The Democratic
party has not been fatally disorganiz-
ed; but it sadly needs rehabilitation
on purely Democratic lines" The At
lanta Daily News asked Mr.. Bryan for
an expression Of opinion concerning
Mr.. Cleveland's proposition, and Mr.
Bryan replied: "It is impossible to dis
cuss Mr.. Cleveland's interview until he
sets forth in particular what he con-
siders the first principles of Democ-
racy." On Thursday morning there
