Heavy Losses of the American Scouts
 Capture of the Irish Corps,
 London, May 17.-A despatch from Vredefortweg, without date, via Lour- enzo Marques, May 16, says
 Some American scouts before leaV- ing Kroonstad Sunday morning set fire to the goods sheds after having had trouble with the British residents.
 "HazelFs American scouts have sui fered more heavily than any other corps during the war. In the last six weeks out of force of one hundred strong, they have lost thirty-seven in killed, wounded, or captured. Their stormng of the British position at Tobaberg was grand. They simply wiped out the de- tachment holding the post and captured Captain Cheyne and six men.
 "Melan's cavalry added to their laurels last week, but lost heavily in propor- tion to the burghers.
 Tt is believed that Blake's Irish Corps, captured at Kroonstad, were or dered to retreat, but remained drinking the rum left by the commissariat."

It is redolent of New York life, full of pretty girls, bright crispy dialogue, the most excru- ciatingly comical situations and the numberless other features which appeal to all tastes A big company, including the exclusively feminine chorus, will in terpret it.

 That splendid Swedish dialect comedy "Yon Yonson" was presented at the Grand opera house last night to a large audience. Arthur Donaldson as Ton Yonson thoroughly demonstrated the fact that he has no peers as a Swedish dialect comedian. His work was highly appreciated, if the enthusiastic encores are to be considered evidence. The company is, in fact, an excellent one and wholly capable of supporting Mir. Donaldson in proper manner. Beatrice Norman as Grace, the heroine, inter prets the character of the girl who rec ognizes in the big g-hearted Swede more than appears on the surface in a charm ing manner Annie Mack Berlein as the Irish woman repeats her former success in the part, and Daisy Grogan gives a clever performance of the part Ol d DUys ILulIld tDltSbl dS Jtlllllt llbl only acts cleverly, but gives in the last act a dancing speciality that it not only clever, but new, and which took so well with the audience last evening that she was forced to repeat it until entirely out of breath.
 The Lumberman's quattette is espe cially worthy of mention, as it is one of the best quartettes in every respect which has been at the Grand opera house this season. The play is one of human interest. A Swedish brother and sister, bereft of parents, become separated at an early age. Previous to the fathers death, however. he perfects an invention, which, together with his children, he gives into the keeping of friend The friend proves false, and, seeing the value of the invention, schemes to enrich himself.
