ADVANCING IN FORCE.
The Msie British Army is twenty Mil


The Msir British Army is Twenty Miles
North of Kroenstad.
Associated Press Dispatch by Special Wires.
| London, Eng, May %. Once moro
Lord Roberts is advancing in force.
already the main British army is about
90 miles north Of it's former resting
place.
Judging from the dispatches of Lord
Roberts at lioning SpruIt Station.
while flankiug him OBJ either side oil
| the raiircad, Gen. Frennh's cavalry
and Gen. Ian HaTnilton's mounted
infantry are both slightly in advance
of Lord Roberts, and threatening 10
enveiop the Boer position, which ex-
| tends for 90 miles due Forth. Gen.
Fronch probably crossed the Rhenoster
River near the junction with Honing
| Spruit, which runs thence to Honing
Spruit Station. The main British army
will probably advance along the rail
road, while Gen. French congerges
from the west and Gen. Hamilton from
the east. Against this overwhelming
force, the Beers will Ihobably follow
their usual tactics of retiring to
positions which doubtless have been
prepared in advance for their occu-
patton. Gen. French and Gen. Hamil-
ton are separated from each other by
about 40 miles, while Lord Roberts is
within IL miles Of Gen. French and 30
miles of Gen. Hamilton.
Since the last dispatch left Honing
Spruit. yesterday, Lord Roberts has
doubtless still further advanced, and
by now is either engaging or following
the retreating Beers.
The Vaal River has not yet been
crossed, as nearly 40 miles intervene
between 1t and Lord Roberts, advance
flahkers. The small number of casual
ties sustained by Gen. Hamilton in his
occupation of Heilbron bears out the
theory that the Beers will make no
strenuous resistance until the Vaal is
reached, or until even later. Dispatches
to the Associated Press from Heilbron
say that Gen. Dewet had 1900 men
POSTED on an adjacent hill, but that
he retired when Gen. Hamilton ap-
preached. President Steyn fled from
Heilbron May Goth, and his destination
is not known.
The War Office has issued dispatch
from Lord Roberts, dated Honing
Spruit, Nav 22d, announcing the re-
celpg Nv MIN OF Une following message
from Major General Baden Powell:
"Mafeling, May III am happy to
inform you that Mafeking was success
fully relieved today. The northern and
southern columns Joined hands on May
18th, and attacked the enemy yester-
day, and, after small.engagement, en-
tirely defeated them. The British
casualties were three killed and %
wounded. The relieving force marched
into Mafeking at O'Clock this morn
ing, and the relief and defence forces
combined, and moved out and attacked
the enemy's head lager. We shelled
them out, and nearly captured Snyman.
and took one gun, a flag and a large
amount of ammunition, stores, &c.
/ i've dead and Is wounded Beers were
found. The enemy appears to be re-
treating in all directions, except one
commando. which is lying low, possibly
to cover the retreat of the remainder.
Capt. MacLaren and. Corporal Murray
were found in the Boer hospital, They
are doing we'll. The townspeople and
the garrison Of Mafeking are heartily
grateful for their relief. ~

Allentown. Pa, May 20. frank j.
Krause was hanged in the A lIentown
Jail yard at 1907 o'clock today, for the
murder of Miss Maggie Guth and Owen
y. Kern, at Cedarville, on March Sd,
1899. Death resulted from strangula-
ton. in Tia minutes.
Krause had an affecting leave. taxing
from his family yesterday afternoon.
He spent throo hours last night writing
statement of his crime, which has not
yet been made Public He slept we'll
from midnight until 5 o'clock. and ate
heartily of breakfast His spiritual
advisers called'early, and remained with
him until 10 o'clock, when Sheriff
Wayne Biting entered the cell to per.
form his duty. Krause, with his eyes
closed, was led forth. and the march 10
the scaffold began. Two hundred per-
sons were assembled around the gallows
when Krause assembled the platform.
After the usual preliminaries, the trap
was sprung, and the body fell 49, feet.
The Moose Slipped under the chin, and
his neck was not broken, death result
ing from straneulation. The body was
left hanging 90 minutes, and was then
removed to his parents home, at Get
roma, where it will be buried.
The crime for which Krause was
hanged was prompted by jealousy. He
was an hostler at the hotel at Cedar
vile, and had been paying attentions
to Miss Maggie Guth, one of the SER
wants, Owen o. Kern, the proprietor,
and his wife advised the girl against
Krause, and Miss Guth refused 10 en-
courage his advances. This led to fire.
quent quarrels between the pair, and
on the evening of March Sd, 1899, they
engaged In q violent alteration in the
yard Of the hotel. Mr.. and Mrs. Kern
expostulated with krause, who, in a
frenzy of rage, drew revolver and
began firing Miss Guth was instantly
killed, and Mr.. Kern died from his
wounds about two weeks later, Mrs
Kern recovered from her injuries.
Krause was convicted April l4th, and
sentenced to he hanged January 9th of
this year. He was reslited, and later
the Board of Pardons was petitioned 10
commute his sentence to life imrrison-
meDt, but it refused,
