Cronje May DO Surrounded.

London, Feb 90, 3.45 ma
member of the cabinet told II w
Lucy tonight that the War Office
had received telegram announc-
ing that General Cronje was hope
lessly surrounded. Mr.. Wynd-
ham was be.et by anxious mems
bers of the House, but would onl
reply that the governments news
was extremely satisfactory. The
sole explanation of the govern
ment withholding tho good news
is that confirmation and more de-
tails are awaited.
The Chievsley correspondent of
The Daily Newe, teIegraphing
Yesterday, says: "We now occupy
all the hills to the right of Colen.

Beers evacuated last night (Sun.

ing dispatch, dated Monday, from

ported that Sir Redvers Butler
had captured Hlangwane hill.

in full retreat and Gen KelIy-
Kenny harassing his rear, hopes
run high that 4 decisive action
will occur if 1t has not already
been fought. Dispatches from
Jacobsdal confirm this belief, saw
ing that Cronje has been obliged
to outspan, in other words to
form n lager or camp. This
explains Kelly-Kenny's latest
dispatch referring to the shelling
of lager. Gen Tucker, with
the Seventh division, is able to
effect tho projected junction with
the forces of Kelly Kenny, while
the Ninth, under Gen CoIville, is
rapidly coming up from the rear.
Kitchener should have sufficient
forces to decisive y engage Cronie
and prevent him reaching BIoem
fontein with an effective force.
Every commanding general along
the line of FIVE hundred miles is

A startling incident, of which
MIR John Oliver Of Philadelphia,
was the subject, is narrated by
him as follows: 81 was in
most dreadful condition. My
skin was almost yellow, eyes
sunken, tongue coated, pain cons
tlnually in back and sides, no ap-
petite-gradualIy growing weaker
day by day. Three physicians
had given me up. Fortunately,
a friend advised trying Electric
Bitters:' and to my great Joy and
surprise, the first bottle made
decided improvement, | continued
their use for three weeks, and am

saved my life, and robbed the
grave of another victim" No
one should fail to try them. Only
