RELAXING THE CHASE.
Protest Against Progress of Bosr War Is Be
ginning to Have It's Effect

New York, Nov. 27.- The CORES
pondent of the London Times and
the New York Times at Pretoria says
the fact that Commandants Touche,
Myburgh and Vessels have been left
alone for some time in Northeast
Cape Colony is adduced as a sign of
relaxing British efforts in the colony.
The correspondent declares that this
is only another instance of unrea-
sonable impatience recently manifest
ed in regard to the progress of the
war.
The mistake was once frequently
made, after clearing one district, of
pursuing the Beers Immediately into
another, and allowing them to break
back into the first. To obviate this,
now that he has cleared the midlands.
General French has been obliged to
allow the enemy to remain in COM
parative quiet in the Barkley East
district until he has made sure that
they will not break west, when he
will proceed, against them. The
building of a line of blockhouses
from the north, southeast to Dord-
recht, which is now in progress, will,
it is expected, prevent the Beers from
breaking west.
The columns now operating in this
district, if they succeed in clearing
the country, will practically free the
colony, east of the main line from
Cape Town to De Aar, of Beers.

TRUE TO THEIR THREAT.
Union Miners Put Up Another Tent on Site
ol Camp Broken Up.

Darlington, KY, Nov. 2S.--True
to their threat to maintain the camp
at Nortonville, the union miners
erected another tent today on the site
of the camp which Judge Hall broke
up only yesterday and hauled to
Madisonville. At that time the
leaders who had command of the
camp, were not arrested. The re-
newal of the camp today was great
surprise.
The union men are relying on
Judge-elect Givens to again permit
the camps in Hopkins county after
January 1, although Judge Givens
announced that he would stringently
uphold the law. Some of the local
companies who have not been protect
ed are taking steps to secure foreign
charters and get under the protection
of the United States courts.

BRIGANDs' uLTIMATUM.
Threaten to Kill Miss Stone and Companion
Unlesr Full Ransom Is Paid.

New York, Nov. 2S.-Commenting
on the report that the brigands have
sent a message to American Diplo-
matte Agent Dickinson that unless he
accedes by January l to their original
demand for $4,000 Turkish lira, or
pounds ($110,000) ransom, they will
kill both their captives-Miss Ellen
M. Stone and Mrs. Tsilka-the Sofia,
Bulgaria, correspondent of the World
says:
This report comes in private ad-
vices from Dubnitz, the Bulgarian
frontier town which is the present
headquarters of the secret agents
through whom Mr.. Dickinson has
been communicating with the
brigands.
''The message is said to be the rob-
bers' answer to the ultimatum re-
ported to have been sent to them by
Mr.. Dickinson-but which he denied
sending-offering as ransom $4,000
Turkish Ira, 1852, OOO), and no more,
and giving them until next Saturday
to accept that sum, after which time
that and all previous offers would be
withdrawn.
Mr.. Dickinson, who was the United
States Consul general at Constanti-
nople when he was appointed diplo-
matte agent at Sofia, went to Con-
stantinople Immediately after the re-
port became current that he had sent
an ultimatum and he is still there.
The report that the brigands will kill
their prisoners is not believed at

ary and involving $3.50, 600, can be

While the farmers of Kansas are gaz-
ing ruefully at thsir burned and wither-
ed crops, the Colorado farmers are busy
gathering one of the greatest crops in
the history OF the state. And yet there
has been no more rain here than in
Kansas, indeed, not as much. The
secret OF the difference in results is irri-
cation. The Kansas farmer consideres
himself in luck if he does not lose more
than two crops out OF FIVE. The Colo
RADIO farmer expects his bountiful har-
vest every year and gets it as matter
OF course. The irrigation ditch may
cost something, but it certainly pays.
1t not only assures regular crop, but
every year plat OF land is irrigated it
becomes richer and more productive.
Farming in Colorado is business In
Kansas it is a gamble. Kansas is a
great state, but the time is not far dis
tant when Colorado will lead Kan sas in
agriculture.
