KRUGER APPEALS TO BOERS
VIII Resist to the Last--Three
British Armies in the Field.

British Armies in the Field.
LONDON, March "a special to ths
Times from Lourenzo Marquee, dated
Sunday. March 4th, says:
Persistent rumors continue that The
Transvaal republic has opened negoti
ations looking to the securing OF peace
On the other hand, it Is asserted thai
the Beers will make a stand at Glencoe
and LaiDg's Mex, and that In the mean
time intrenchments at Pretoria are be.
ing extended In anticipation of a siege.
President Kruger has sent a fervid
religious appeal, with orders that II
should be read by all the officers to the
Beers. urging them To stand fast and
strive in the ime OF the Lord, for un-
less they had fifth in Liim. enwardice
would set in, and their position would
be hopeless the moment they turned
their backs To the enemy. Their past
victories, he decldr d, showed that the
Lord was on their side. The President
oese, ching the bu, ghers not to bring
destruction ON their progeny.
Continuing, the special says that a
high authority in Bloemfontein declares
that in the event OF the repulse of the
Free State forces, the latter will retire
toward the Transvaal aud unite with
their brethren there, maintaining the
struggle to the last.
LONDON, March 5.-There are now
practically three b itish armi In the

Colony and the other in Natal.
All that Is known about the frst and
more important Is that it Is in close

method OF General Roberts advance

which. according To the last dispatches,
seems almost accomplished.
With the exception of sorties, a se-
rious movement can hardly be expected
from the Natal army this week. When
it will be ready to advance lts move
ments must greatly depend upon how
much distance the retreating Beers put
between themselves and General Butler.

expected any day. Colonel Plummer's

Some Rich GaIena.

David bennett brought to our Office
last week as fine specimen OF galena
ore as we ever care to see. 1t was from
the Lookout mine, situated seven miles
east of Ely, and represents the first
class ore that is being sacked by the
owners for shipment. Besides 81 per
cent lead 1t contains 172 OF. of silver
per ton. The amount OF this ore thus
far encountered is not large, but sec.
ond grade, which will also stand the
high shipping charges, occurs in con-
siderable quantities. We are informed
that over 90 sacks have been taken out
by Messrs Kent and Peters. in sinking
shaft so feet, and carload will be
ready for shipment in short time.
This is one of the most promising pros
poets that has been struck in this vic
Unity for a long time past and promises
to pay the cost of its own development.

visited the place where her uncle and
cousin are buried. the vision represent
ing that the missing men were mur-
dered and their bodies deposited in a

was the description given by Miss Pen

they will succeed in finding the bodies.
"A great deal of interest and conf

those most conversant with the facts,
as this girl has at nine different time,

The results of the search have mo-
