FRESH GAINS By BoERs.
Date Set by Kitchener Sees Several
Victories Achieved.

London, Sept. 21.-While President
Kruger and DR.. Leyds are drawing up
petitions to President Roosevelt and
the car asking them TO intervene, the
hghtlng Beers are helping themselves
IN South Africa by celebrating the ex-
piration of the period in which Lord
Kitchener proclaimed they must sur
render by four notable successes, kill
ing slXty-e1ght officers and men,
wounding sixty three and capturing
i've guns and 800 men.
The situation is singularly like the
opening of the war two years ago. the
names of the same places recurring
in the dispatches. Utrecht, where Ma

scene of a similar ambuScade eighteen
months back Acton Homes, where

Possible Legislation.


Chicago, S 'pt 21--The Marquette
club. which adopted resolutions for
the extirpation of ansrchism at it's me-
mortal services in the Auditorium
Thursday night, does not intend to let
the matter drop with the passage of
the resolutions. Tonight the members
of the club held a meeting TO appoint
a committee to formulate ways and
means for the carrying out of the cam
paign against anarchy. The plan of
the Marquette club is to work as hard
as possible to bring the matter before
congress when il assemblies.
Laws against anarchi&m as stringent
as the constitution Will permit and
along the lines contemplated by the
Marquette club We're talked of by q
party of national lawmakers returning
yesterday from President Mckinley s

Canton. IN a discussion of anarchism
and the dangers of its teachings il de-
veloped that all were practically of one
mind on the main question-the neces-
sity of repressive measures against
promoters of the cult.
The plans suggested ranged from de-
tons of anarchists to some lonely

PIcKPocKErs AZ WORK.
Many Midway Visitors Relieved Of
Their Cash

Their Cash
A gang of about as clever pickpock-
cts as have operated in the city for
some time We're actively engaged III
plying their vocation on the carnival
grounds Friday night, and as result
of their work no less than seven per-
sons reported to the detectives yester-
day that they had been touched for
small amounts. There are believed to
have been many other victims who did
not report their losses and the police
believe that the clever crooks are reap
ing a rich harvest from the unsuspect-
ing. From the reports yesterday the
gentlemen with the nimble fingers were
evidently very active among the
crowds of the midway. but their work
was so clever that the victims did not
and found 1t gone. The names OF all
the victims of the thieves could not
be secured, but about $50 was taken
from them. in amounts from IS to $40.
One victim reported that the money
had been removed from an inside coat
pocket, but he was unconscious of the
deed when it was done. S. A Iawer,
a visitor from St. Joseph. Mo, was
touched for his ticket from ST. Joseph
to San Francisco
A lady visitor was relieved of her
silver watch while taking in the sights
of the midway Friday night. An en-
ployee of the Utah Light & Power COM
pany was relieved of $11 by some nim-
BILE fingered thief. The money was in
his hip pocket when it was taken.
Several special detectives were de-
tailed to keep strict watch for pick
pockets in the carnival grounds last
night, but none were detected The Of
ficers believe that they will be able to
land some of them in the Jail soon.

FAD Fun With josh.

Josh Davis. the well known Chinese
impersonat tor, who is representing the
Atlantic Tea company on the carnival
grounds, convulsed the kangaroo court
and spectators yesterday afternoon.
Josh was run in on a charge OF being
on earth. a crime which he couIdn' [
very well deny. He affected the con-
stitutional stupidity Of the average
Chinaman in most effective style.
Most of the spectators were deceived
into believing he was the genuine
article, especially when Josh couldn' [
be made to understand that a fine of
So had been assessed against him, and
that he must either pay or leave his
queue as security. The play went on
for five minutes. and when the i'm
personator finally left the box he was
