WISCONSIN, people all regret the

he is thus far wholly unable to work

STEUBENVILLE, o., February 1O-The
council of this city has given a franchise
to the Pleasant Heights Street Railroad
to construct an electric line from AHams
and Third streets. this city, up over Pleas
ant Heights to the Union cemetery. The
road promises big returns when put in
operation. Two other electric railways
of this city have planned to commence
work on extensions within the next thirty
days. and right of way is being secured.
Trouble is anticipated over loops several
of the roads propose to construct, as they
will pass over streets now occupied or
proposed to be occupied by other lines as
the citizens do not want two tracks on GER
tain streets. The Steubenville-M ingo rail-
way will begin work on its extension to
Brilliant in several weeks. 1t is to be
met at that point by an extension of the
line from Martins Ferry. Within thirty
days the Steubenville Traction Company,
now owned by Philadelphia capitalists,
will begin its extension to Toronto. At
several points along the river immense
cuts will be required. They will touch
near Browns Island, which it is intended
to make a summer resort. In all, fully
$500, coo will be spent in the extensions.

THE ICE BLOCKADE

In the Rivers About New York Still
Continues.
NEW YORK, February 10.-The ice
blockade in the North and East rivers
and in the harbor still continues but
is was not as severe to-day as it was
on Saturday Still there was great
inconvenience on the North river for
the persons who were trying to catch
trains. The ferry boats made better
time than they have for several days,
but they were from five TO ten minutes
late on each trip. The ice was thickly
packed on the New York side of the
North river and on the Brooklyn side
OF the East river because the wind
drove the ice in that direction. There
was very little travel on the East river
ferry boats because travellers preferred
to take chances across the bridge. The
boats Of the South ferry and Hamilton
avenue lines had the greatest difficulty
in making their slips on the Brooklyn
side. The Staten Island boats by taxi
ing a course in toward the Jersey
shore made their usual trips on sched-
ule time. NV q IAci4 say lHeit ohO VI
two days Of warm weather will break
up the blockade.
On account of the ice which is solidly
packed in the slip at the foot of Nor
ton street North river. the French lin
er La Champagne, which reached quar-
antine this evening, was compelled to
anchor there for the night. Tugboats
will be engaged to smash the ice in the
slip tomorrow morning.

He expressed his qualification at the
loyal response the colony had made
to the call, emphasized the great value
of mounted men and complimented the
officers and all concerned upon the
excellent work already done in stem
ming the Boer invasion"
1T has been said that the enemy
would never come to Cape Town, but
any one who, in the face Of the events
of the last few months will say a thing
is impossible because it seems impro-
bable is too silly to be argued with. |
am aware that l risk being called an
alarmist, but it is better to be called
an alarmist than to run any risk
There was a time when it was re-
garded as impossible for the Beers to
penetrate the extreme west and south
of Cape Colony, but they have reached
one and are within few miles OF the
other. Therefore it is necessary to
take every precaution. Most men pre-
fer to be called alarmists and TO safe
guard their property. That is better
than to be called fine plucky fellow
and to lose your property"

And NOrthfieId" the Subject of an
Address Yesterday in New York.
NEW YORK, February 10-"The
influence of Dwight L. Moody, and

dress this afternoon at the West Side

Of Calcutta, India. secretary in charge
of the Y. NJ. C "A work in that land,
said that Mortified stood foremost
among the places from which spiritual
influences have gone forth in the past
generation and in the present "a
highly spiritual impulse" he said,
comes inevitably to men who come
in touch with the influences at North
field. Mr.. Moody was too wide in his
syrnpathies to confine himself To one
place or State. His influence has been
eXerted throughout as wide a sphere
as that in which the Anglo-Saxon race
predominates, and it has been a
mighty influence for God, which we
must perpetuate'
The Rev. James McConnaughy, of
Mount Hermon, Mass. made an APP
peal for funds to help ensure the con-
tinuance of Mr.. Moody's work at that
place and at Mortified.
Prof w. w. White, Of Mont Clair,
N j., principal of the Bible Teachers
Institute, spoke of Mr.. Moody's per-
sonal characteristics, especially as
shown in his last sayings on the day
of his death, which he called his coro-
nation day.

EAST LONDON, Cape Colony, Feb
here of severe fighting at Tabaksberg
mountain, forty miles east Of the rail-
way and about midway between Small
deel and Bloemfontein. Major Crewe
with a composite column, travelling
southwest, sighted the mountain on the
morning of January 31st. He heard
heavy fighting and knowing Col. Pill
cher'5 column was on the other side
of the mountain, he concluded that this
officer was in action. Consequently
he hurried forward, only to meet Beers
streaming down and evidently retiring
from Col. Pitchers lyddite Shells I'm
mediately Major Crewe brought three
15-pounders and 'pompom" to bear
on the Beers, who, however, were
found to be so numerous that it was
impossible to head them Orders were
given to return to camp about two
miles from the mountain. The column
rested until four in the afternoon
when the march was resumed south
west
Major Crewe was just touching the
southern point of the mountain when
a terrific rife fire opened from a large
force of Beers who were in ambuscade
on the mountain. The fight soon be-
came general. The Beers outnumbered
the British five to one and were at
lacking them on both TANKS and rear.
The British "pompom" damned and
became useless. Major Crewe grasped
the situation and by a brilliant move
got the convoy into safe position.
Between seven and eight in the even
ing the Beers charged the position and
turned both TANKS. The British am
munition became exhausted and Major
Crewe was obliged to retire and aban-
don the ''pompom" after the advance
party had endeavored to save it and
had sustained severe losses.
A rear guard action was fought by
Major Crewe into the camp, where the
wagons had been laagered He per-
sonally superintendent the retirement,
the Beers harassing him throughout.
Entertainments were thrown up during
the night.
When morning came Major Crewe
started to join Gen. Knox, twelve miles
southwest. The Beers Immediately re-
attacked him, compelling him to fight
a second rear guard action for a few
miles. Gen. DeWet personally COM
manded the Beers, estimated at $500.
Major Crewe's force was only 700.
Eventually the British officer joined
Gen. Knox and returned to Bloemfon-
tein. Lord Kitchener has highly COM
plimented Major Crewe upon the
achievement
