London. April 27--The following dis
patch was received at the war office
from Lord Roberts:
"Bloemfontein. April 26.-At the re-
quest OF the high commissioner. War
ren has been appointed military gov
ernor OF Griqualand West, while that
country is in a disturbed condition"
This dispatch constitutes all the war
news received up to this hour. The
peculiar reference to Sir Alfred Miner
lends itself to the inference that the
commander-in-c In chief Of the British
forces in South Africa scarcely APP
proves and that the previous report
that Warren had been recalled was
correct. but he was saved from coming
home by the action OF the British high
commissioner
The latest authentic estimates OF the
Boer forces place them at 10000, OF
which 1900 are at Kroonstadt, 5000 at
Fourteen Streams, 5000 in Natal, zoo
about Mafeking. and 1000 at Pretoria
The work OF entrenching Pretoria is
proceeding.

lie Gives hIs Idea of Queen Esther" I'm.
tertainment Last sight.
A large and appreciative audience
assembled at the new Albuquerque
theater last night to witness the second
performance of the sacred cantata,
queen Esther" rendered by some fif-
ty ladies and gentlemen of this city.
Everything went of smoothly. and
there was not a single hitch or halt
either in music or acting.
The chorus was strong. well-balanced
and rendered the various numbers with
great accuracy and beauty.
The costumes stage setting and
groupings were artistic in the extreme
and would have been a credit pro-
fessionals
The music, while not Of a high clas-
steal order, was tuneful and pleasing
throughout the entire score.
There was not in It an Indifferent
number. Some OF the choruses were
animated and spirited in the extreme,
such as the laughing chorus In the first
act. and the prayer chorus ITO Thee,
q Lord We Raise our cry
To enumerate all the good points in
the solo work would be to say that
each part was rendered in an artistic
and capable msuner; nnd while the
musical part of the performance was
rendered in superb style. 1t may be
added that the acting was OF no in
ferior order.
The scene between Frank Lee. as
Haman, and Miss Taylor, as Zeresh,
Hamans wife, was perhaps the strong
est. dramatically. although the acting
Of queen Esther" CMrs. Knightlin-
ger) and the King" (Mr Newton)
was forcible and graceful at all times
Miss Margaret Lee. w. J. Francis
w. Kempton, sam Pickard and Others
OF the cast assumed difficult parts and
won the plaudits OF the audience by
| their acting.
The chorus work was excellent at al
times and the painstaklng efforts OF
the director. Mr.. Newton, should com.
mand the highest praise.
| The costumes were elaborate ant
very beautiful. each member OF th,
cast, Persian and Jew, looked thei
part.
| The song OF the beggar, +. Grimmer
was a strong piece OF character worl
and ELECTED hearty applause.
| The dancing OF Miss Jeannette Wal
| ton before the queen" proved
| pleasing feature of the cast and tn
young lady was generously encored.
The presentation of the cantat!
showed what capable work the younI
people Of Albuquerque are able to ac
compllsh in a musical way and 1t 4
to be hoped that another effort II
the same direction will be made at al
early date
The cast OF characters was publishe,
In The Citizen yesterday afternoon.
The ladies OF st. Johns Guild. espec
tally Mrs. Crossan and Mrs. Yewell
worked faithfully and hard for the sue
cess OF the play, from a financial pon
Of view. and the treasury OF the churcl
has undoubtedly been enriched severa
hundred dollars by the two enterta n
ments. Mrs. Hazledine. on behalf o
the st. Johns Guild, called at this of
flee and desired that The Citizen ex
tend the thanks Of the ladies OF tn

cellent service for the Harvey house

employers by allowing himself to be-
come fascinated with the pastime of
gambling and suuandering other peo-
pies money on the green cloth. Last
night he appropriated si25 Of Harvey's
earnings and started out TO play em up
to the limit. He was dead game to
