There was never q time in the
history of Vinita when there was
less excuse for street loafing by
able. bodied men. Every man or
boy who wants to work and earn
money may do so, for work is
plentiful. But the crowd OF street
louhgers and box.whittlers is un-
diminished Notwithstanding the
urgent demand for laborers on ey-
cry hand.

proceeded beyond the picllets rode into
a Boer force and We're driven back.
The Beers followed them, rushed the

handing the British camp. 1t was
necessary to drive them from this po-
sition at all costs, and this was done
by the Derbyshire regiment and the
Scottish Horse. The fighting was at
such close quarters that the bayonet
was used. This made the casualties
heavy. The name of the Derbysh1re

disconcerting circumstances was MAIN
tanned, while the Scotci, horse did cX-
cellent work. Devenish and seventeen

The story told by Lynch to the grand

exceeded anything that has ever been
limited at.
According to Lynch's story court
officers and iurymen have been cor

the present time in the courts of Cook

his knowle ,e. have been guilty of

Canadian Yacht club. Gooderham is
immensely wealthy. and his sporting
diversions run to fine horses and
yachts. Commodore Jarvis of To-
ronto would be manager OF the boat.

railway king, and with him would be

have their boat designed in England,
but the iron and steel syndicate would
have George Herrick Duggan design
and manage her.
