SLIP THROUGH THE NET
But the Latter Are Steadily Drawing
a Gordon Around Their
Enemies.

Dundee. Natal. Oct. 7.-During the prog
fess OF a big movement such as Is now
being conducted by General Lyttleton in
the southeast corner OF the Transvaal,
the news consists mostly of a record OF
the movement Of the Beers from farm to
farm In their attempt to escape the cor
don which is being drawn around them by
the British troops. In the country in
which the operations are taking place 1t
is impossible to prevent groups of Beers
from slipping through the columns. II
Is we'll known large number Of Beers can
melt away in an almost incredibly short
time. On the present occasion it Is to be
feared that the burghers, though massed
IN greater number than usual, will be
alarmed by their experience at Fort
italia and will avoid further action.
The main body OF Beers, which remains
under the leadership of Commandant
General Botha, the Boer commander in
chief, Is within the Gordon and is press
ing north from the Zululand frontier
On the eastern frontier of Natal the
danger of invasion seems to have beer
averted by the rapid movement of the
British troops. Throughout the eastern
Transvaal the scouts continually sight
armed Beers. Most of these do not belong
to any particular commando, but watch
the movements of the British and are al
ways ready to snipe from safe distance
when oportunity arises.

THIRD WEEKS BUSINESS
Lieut.. Commando HOdgsOn Describes
the Battle Anew,

Washington, Oct. THE Schley court
of inquiry to-day entered upon the third
straight week of Its sessions. 1t had
been expected that the navy department
would be able to complete its presenta-
tion by the close Of last week, but when
the court opened to-day Captain Lemly's
list of witnesses still contained almost
a dozen names. Prominent among these
is Captain Chadwick, who was Admiral
Simpsons chief Of staff and who was in
immediate command of the flagship New
York during the Santiago campaign. -
The program for to-day, including those
called for correction Of testimony, the
names Of two new witnesses and of two
who have hitherto been on the stand. The
new witnesses who were present when
the court convened with the expectation
of being called to the stand during the
day, were Captain w. M. Folger, who
commanded the cruiser New Orleans dur
ing the bombardment Of the CristobaI
Colon on May 81, In which that vessel
participated, and Lieutenant NJ L. Bris-
tol, who, as an ensign, was the watch
officer on the battleship Texas during the
Santiago campaign. Lieutenant Com

understanding that he probably would be

OFF CAME The TOES
Lieut.. Johnson Was Bound to Serve
His Country.
HIS COMMISSION is ISSUED
Medical Examiners Objected to De-
formed Toes and He Had
Them Amputated.

1t remained for Walter H. Johnson 10
discover new way Of shedding his good.
red blood for his country's sake. 1t was
a somewhat startling proposition, but a
second lieutenant s commission in the reg
ular army which has just been issued to
Mr.. Johnson bears testimony to the eff
ficacy of the plan employed.
Lieutenant Johnson is son Of J. H.
Johnson of the undertaking firm of John
son & Lands. At the breaking out of the
Spanish war he was in Company F, First
regiment M. N. G. and went to the Phil
ipplres as a corporal in his company.
When the Thirteenth was mustered out
he had risen from corporal to first lieu
tenant He then received appointment as
lieutenant in the Forty-second volunteers,
and when that regiment was mustered out
at San Francisco not long ago, young
Johnson determined to continue his mil
formal application for lieutenancy in the
regular army, and was a short time after
wards called upon to take the examina-
tion. His military experience and his
natural aptitude in many ways made the
ordeal an easy one for him, but the mill
tary branch of the government does not
need officers as badly as it did a few years
ago, and Johnson was held up by the med
ical examiners. The slight defect which
had proved absolutely harmless through
his previous military career, was in the
shape Of two deformed toes, one Of the
lesser members on each foot being turned
under.
Gentlemen" he said to the examiners,
''if you will not take man with deformed
toes, will you accept man with eight
toes instead of ten?" They laughingly as
sured him that no toes were preferable
to deformed ones, and supposed that they
had heard the last Of the applicant. The
young man, however, was made of stern
stuff, for he straightway sought out a
surgeon and had the offending toes neatly
amputated. AS soon as the wounds had
healed he reappeared before the examin-
ers and passed without bit of trouble.
The sequel is now announced from Wash
ington in the shape of dispatch stating
that he has been commissioned.
