British Faith Tested.

New York, Sept Accommodating on
recent South African proclamations,
he London correspondent or the Trlb-
the says.
British faith In the efficacy OF procla-
nations Is severely tested as the time
limit set by Lord Kitchener and Mr.,
Chamberlain approaches. The war.
which was declared by Lord Roberts to
" practically over on the eve Of the
general elections, win be technically at
an end in eleven days.
Lord Kitcheners weekly report has
disclosed the average list OF Boer cas-
usltes and British captures. but the
results are hardly commensurate with
be efforts made TO scour the country
BY a large number OF mounted columns.
i Is evident that these columns are
marching through empty districts, and
hat the bands Of guerilllas well in
formed respecting their movements,
keep out OF the way, and when pursued
break up into small squads. Never was
there more eXasperating fox hunting.
Gen French's work is the most diff
cult and there are few signs Of progress.
Commanders ranging from 300 to 100
men and boys, are here. there and
Everywhere, and when the trail seems
hot Il Is lost and the commando re-
appears at the end of week a hundred

Moreover there is no sense Of secur-

BIBLE IN DRAMA.
John the Baptist is the Hero OF the
Piece.

San Francisco. Sept. A notable
theatrical event was the production at
the Central theater for the first time
on any stage of a biblical drama by
Edward Elsner, entitled "a Voice from
the Wilderness In which John The
Baptist is the leading character. The
action Of the play takes place in Judea
just before the advent of Christ. The
chief variation from scrlptural history
consists In the Introduction of a scere
between John and Herodias, the con-
sort OF Herod, who declares her love,
but is treated with scorn by the evan
gelist These characters were effective
ly impersonated by Robert Downing
and Annette Marshall. The play was
presented by Balasco and Thai with
artistic scenery and remarkable at
tention to detail and historical accuracy
and scored success.

Colonists Suffer.

Durham, Sept. S.-Representatlons
have been made to Lord Miner that the
British refugees are not nearly so well
treated as are the Beers and are suf-
ferlng terribly. The transportation by
railroads of supplies for the Boer refu-
gees prevents the British returning to
their homes. Foreigners, It is said, are
allowed TO move about as they are in
cined. The refugees are threatened
with ruin through accommodating liabili-
ties. The feeling prevails that the pro-
posed settlements are not fair TO the
new colonies. and that Just proper
ton Of the responsibility for the war
and expenses involved is not shown by
them.
