London, May IA dispatch from
Reit Spruit, dated May 10. describing
more fully yesterdays successful oper-
ations says: General HaHllton's
SCOUTS had on two previous days ascer-
tained the Beers position and strength.
Wednesday night the Cheshire regi-
ment crossed the river and entrenched
themselves. prepared to hold the pas
sage for the regiment following. AT
daybreak on Thursday the main body
crossed at two or three points. The
mounted infantry was then in action,
driving off the advance OF the Beers,
preparatory to a general forward move
rflent. The Boer right first gave way,
but Tucker and Hamilton had "a tough
er task on the left. The Beers had six
guns, and served them well, working
with great determination, but the Brit
ish worked up closer and closer, their
guns meanwhile firing necessarily. The
East Lancashire and Sussex regiments
by IL o'clock had worked well to the
front. The order was given, and like
flash the two regiments sprang for
ward simultaneously and in a few mo-
ments secured the two commanding
ridges. The advanced line was now
within twelve hundred yards of the
Beers main trench, and the latter
were already losing heart from the
demonstration on their flank. but kept
up rapid. though wild fire. At this
moment the final charge was ordered
and away went the Lancashire and
Sussex regiments again, and the Beers
bolted and the rout of the Beers along
their whole line was then completed.

Chicago, Oct. S.-By the organiza-
ton of the International Forest. Fish.
and Game association Saturday, low
ers of wild game animals made the
first preparation for an exhibition to
be held in Chicago, which will put
on view and alive practically every
American game animal, bird, and fish
from the moose to the brook trout
and Bob White"
The association proposes to hold
annual exhibitions. From the success
which has attended similar exhibit
tions held in Boston and New York it
is believed that they will prove equal
ly successful here. The display will
go further than the exhibition of ami
mails, birds and fish, for it is planned
to have representatives of as many
Indian tribes as possible here, with
the general purpose of showing in the
most complete form possible the wild
life Of the country.
The primary purpose of the exhibit
tion is of an educational character
purely.
