TIE M WING SHOT.
Capt. Bogardus Has a Dangerous Eek.
perience But Comes
Out Unlnurt,

Ferris Wheel Park, Chicago, Nov.
4th.-Capt. A. II. Bogardus, the cham
pion wing shot of the world, has
spent the summer here. His shooting
school has been one of the features
of the Park during the season. He
has given many exhibitions and his
skill with the rifle is superb.
The Captain tells of a very close
call he once had when living at Elk
hart, Ill. He had been a sufferer from
Kidney disease for several years and
it rapidly developed into Bright's Dis
ease. All his friends told him that
this vas incurab1e and that he would
never get better.
To say that he was alarmed is to
put it very mildly. This plucky man
had faced many dangers and it made
him sick at heart to think that at last
he was to be conquered by such a
cruel foe.
At last he heard of a medicine that
a cured many such cases,-Dodd's
Kidney Pills. He used them and was
completely restored to good health.
He says:-"I attribute my present
good health to Dodd's Kidney Pills
n to nothing else"

WAS A BLOODY ENGAGEMENT.
While the British Lost Heavily, the
Beers were RepuIsed with
Much Greater Loss.

Pretoria, Nov. 4.-Further details
have been received regarding the at
tack by the Beers under Command
dant-General Louis Botha last week
upon Col. Benson's column near
Brakenlaagte, eastern Transvaal. 1t
appears that Gen. Botha, who had
been joined by another big comman-
do aggregating a thousand men, at
tackled Col. Benson's rear guard, Oc-
tober 80, on the march, and captured
two guns, but was unable to retain
them. Col. Benson fell MORALLY
wounded in the fight.
Mai. Wools-SampSon took COM
mand, collected the convoy, and took
up a position for defense about 500
yards from the intrenchment pre-
pared by the Beers. The captured
guns were so situated that neither
side could touch them.
The Beers made desperate efforts
to overwhelm the whole British force.

British lines, and being driven back
each time with heavy loss. The de-
Tense was stubbornly and successful
ly maintained through the whole of
the following day and the succeed
ing night, until Col. Barter, who had
marched all night from Bushman's

of November 1. The Beers then re-
tired. Their losses are estimated as
between three hundred and four hum
dred.
Col. Benson did not long survive.
Not only did Gen. Botha direct the
attack, as already cabled, but he per-
sonally shared in the fighting.

PLAIN talk FOR FIL1pINos.
Public Discussion of IA Draft OF
the Act Against
and SedItion.

Manila, Nov. 4.-There was a pub
lie discussion before the Philippine
commission, yesterday, of the draft
of the act against treason and sedi-
ton. Many prominent Filipinos were
present. Vice-Gov. Wright explained
the object of the bill, saying that the
Spanish code was unsatisfactory.
There are a number of people Hv-
ing in the Philippines remarked
Mr.. Wright, "who, SO long as there is
no punishment fol- treason, will take
advantage of the fact to clog the
wheels of the insular government. IL
must not be overlooked that turbu-
lent spirits exist in the pacified prov
inces. The masses of the people are
susceptible of infiammatory utter
ances, and liable to be Influenced by
scheming demagogues. 1t would be
inexcusable weakness ON the port OF
the commission to allow the people to
be aroused to deeds of violence who
are now gradually drifting to the pur-
suits of peace.
1.-THE recent renewed attempts at
instruction in the island of Samar
and the province of Batangas (Luzon)
and at a few other points, due to
noisy Filipino agitators, have caused
a feeling of unrest in the minds of
both Filipinos and Americans; and
the effect of their continuance would
be to make impossible the very
things these agitators claim they
most desire. Such endeavors serve
to recruit the ranks of the insurgents
and to postpone the era of good feel
ing and fellowship which must come.
mo excuse exists for secret po-
litica1 organizations. Their intent
must be evil. No matter what may
have been the opinions of the Fill
pinos regarding the sovereignty of the
American government, the fact re-
mains that the Americans are here,
and, moreover, here they intend to
stay"
The bill was then read in Spanish.

SUPPLIES FOR INSURGENTS
Mostly Carried by Small Boats on
Dark NiGhts-Capture of Lus-
bans COnnissary.

Manila, Nov. 4.-Advices from Cat
balogan, Samar, say it is we'll known
that in spite of the fact hat all ports
of Samar are closed, supplies still
reach the insurgents. Most of this
work is done during dark nights by
small boats from the island of Leyte.
Every available gunboat is now en-
~deavoring to prevent this.
The capture of Lusban's commits
sary has proved a great blow to the
insurrection, as it renders future sup
plies very precarious.
Conditions in the island of Leyte
are very annoying to Gen. Smith. A
large number of junks are used with
the express object of aiding the insur-
gents in Samar, covering the move-
ments of fugitives and landing pro-
visions and clothing.

Mr.. WI referred to the strife which
is almost constantly being waged be-

"It is said that capital is antagonis-

essential to the other. There should

should unite. Why should not dis
putes between capital and labor be
taken into the courts like civil suits

Referring to the immigration laws
of the United States, Mr.. WI said:
"This country needs restrictive i'm
migration laws of general scope and
not laws that single out one ace.
The special laws against Chinese i'm,
migration are the result of Ignorance
of the facts.
"China has $4,000, 900 people, and
her immense territory is able to sup
port this population. All Cinnamon
love home, and have a horror of trav'
cling abroad. All Cinnamon except
diplomats who leave China come from
the Province of Guam Tung. The
Chinese barriers in this country
should be removed"
Mr.. WI said that the treaty of 1885
was made to stop Chinese labor, but
since laws had been passed keeping
out Chinese merchants and trades
men; consequently the high and
worthy Chinese could not get into this
country. Nh. WI said the best way
was to go by the golden rule.

BRITISH BADLY DEFEATED.
sosrs Attack Col. Benson's Rear Guard In
N Mist-CoI. Benson and Many
hers Killed.

London, Nov. 1.-The following is
the text of Lord kitchener's dispatch
from Pretoria, November i:
ST have just heard of a severe at
tack made on the rear guard of Col.
Benson's column when about twenty
miles northwest of Bethel, near
Bro~kenlaagte, during a thick mist.
1.-THE strength of the enemy is re-
ported to have been a thousand. They
rushed two guns with the rear guard,
but it is uncertain whether they ere
sble to remove them.
ST fear our casualties were heavy.
Col. Benson was wounded, but not Sc
riously. A relieving column will reach
him this morning."
Later Lord Kitchener t~elegraphed
as follows:
Sol. Barlow, who marched from
the constabularly line yesterday,
reached Benson's column early this
morning (Friday) unopposed. He re-
ports that Col. Benson died of his
wounds.
''The other casualties are as fol-
lows:
Killed-Col. E. Guinness, Maj. F. d.
Murray, Captains NJ. w. Lindsay and
r. T. Thorold, Lieutenants E.. V. L.
Brooks and r. E. Shepherd, and Sec
ond Lieutenant A. j. Corlett.
"Died of his Wonnds-Capt. Eyre
Lloyd"
Lord Kitchener then gives the
names of 13 other officers wounded,
most of them severely, and announces
that 81 non-commissioned officers and
men were killed and 100 wounded,
adding hat four of the latter have
since died of their wounds.
The dispatch then says:
81 assume that the two guns have
BEEN recovered and the enemy has
withdrawn, but 1 have no further de-
tails.
81 deeply regret the loss OF Col. Ben
son and the other officers and menwho
fell with him. In Benson the service
loses a most gallant and capable Of
fcer, who invariably led his column
with marked success and Judgment.
"The fighting was at very close
quarters and maintained with deter
mination by both sides. The enemy
suffered heavily, but L have not yet
received a reliable estimate.
