HUNTED TURNED HUNTER.
How the Beers OutmanueVered and
Out fought a British Command.

Pretoria, April "Details received
here of the rear guard action during
the night of March 81, between the
Second dragon guards of Colonel
Lawley's command and the Beers,
near Boshmanskop, show that force
of 200 British, while endeavoring to
surprise the Boer lager, rode
straight into a force of 400 Beers.
The night was dark and the Beers
were hidden in the drift and opened
fire from almost under the legs of
the British horses.
A fierce hand to hand struggle en-
sued, in which both sides freely used
the butt ends of their rifles. The
British regained everything they had
just lost and began rear guard ac-
ton. In the meantime a strong force
of Beers had barred the road back
to the British camp. The coming OF
daylight enabled Colonel Lawley to
see that the guards were hard
pressed, and he dispatched reinforce
ments with two guns to their assist
ance. The re-inforcements soon com

British had a very hard fight anG

The Beers disputed every inch of the
road and continually attempted tt
rush the guards, shouting hands up

The British appeared in diminished
numbers, for as it grew lighter the
aim of the Beers improved proper

Wealthy Filipino Wants an American
Son-inLaW.
GIRLS HAVE A BIG DoWRY
Will Give Five Daughters to Ameri-
can Army Officers With Dowry of
$5ooooo, But There Have Been No
Takers.

San Francisco Dispatch: The at
tention of American army officers is
directed to the curious advertisement
of a wealthy Filipino, who has two
daughters whom he wishes united in
marriage to commissioned officers.
His advertisement reads as follows:
WANTED-An American army Off
Ger to marry either of two Fill
Pine girls, each with a dowry of
$500,000 None but commissioned
officers of the American army need
apply. Offer made by Gen. Cavite
Ozario of Cavite, father of the girls.
This golden opportunity held out
by General Ozario is, according to the
men recently returned from the Phil
ippines, only one of the many induce
ments constantly offered to American
soldiers to take dusky brides. The
husband with shoulder straps is at
a premium, and the millionaires of
the islands cavil little at the price
and conditions.
The two Senoritas OZario hold the
best social position, are the daugh-
tiers of one of the richest natives, are
attractive, as Filipino girls go, of a
gentle good nature and indolent hab-
it's. The lack of intelligence and alb
sence of physical symmetry that dis
tinguishes all the bellies of that cline
are atoned for by a perpetual smile
and a docility that are popularity re-
garded as desirable qualities in a
wife. In native costumes these gen.
erously lowered maidens have pic
turesqueness that is wholly lost in
American clothes.
Once deprived of their loosely flow
ing garments and confined as to waist
and hips, the most seductive of brown
charmers become dumpy and dowdy
in outline. 1t is possible this fact
that has deferred even the most
needy of wooers, for, despite the dot
that is forthcoming, so far no suitors
have appeared.

In America a cup of tea is not the
universal and everyday occurrence it is
in England and her dependencies. Orig
inally, perhaps, climate had something
to do with the introduction of this Gus
tom from abroad. Then, too, the late.
ness of the foreign dinner hour made
the habit almost necessity. But now.
according to the Boston Cooking School
Magazine, we, who are inclined to copy
what we like wherever it may be found,
have taken this pleasing and informal
form of hospitality for our own, and
the ; o'clock tea table has become
familiar object in our homes. More
over, we, in addition to the delightful
custom of offering a cup Of tea to the
chance caller Of the late afternoon,
have instituted all sorts of teas"
There are private and public teas,
church and club teas and teas to intro

Asparagus Tongs.

Asparagus is now served as a sepa-
rate course and with individual tongs
instead of fingers, as heretofore. The
little tongs are pretty as well as con-
venient-the claws solid or perforated,
the ends curled to hold firmly on the
delicate stalk. The handles resemble
the old style sugar tongs. but of course
are much shorter.

BURIAL OF ELECTRIC
g
WIRES is RETARDED
Companies Are Willing, but Find
Trouble in Getting Material-Gas
Company Gets Big Shipment.

Ten big spools of electric conduit
cables, each valued at $1,50e, were re-
ceived yesterday by the st. Paul Gas
Light company, and will be used by it
in complying with the ordinance re-
quiring the lowering of all overhead
wires in the underground district.
"The shipment of CABLE" said Presi-
dent Lathrop, "is nothing out of the
ordinary for us even if it does repre-
sent a cash outlay of $4,000. It is
simply a part of the improvements we
are continually making in the lowering
of the wires. Our construction of con-
Quits this year will be no larger than
usual. We are constantly dropping our
wires, and this years work will simply
bring us that much nearer to the low
ering of them all.
AT the next meeting of the council
the latest demand for the removal of
all overhead wires in the underground
district will be acted upon. Some of
the companies say they are agreeable
to its passage, but they cannot obey it
in the entirety, for the present at least,
because of the lateness of the season
and the scarcity of conduit material.
In Minneapolis the paving of several
streets has been badly delayed because
of inability to secure conduit pipe, and
it is feared the same trouble may be
experienced on West Seventh street,
which is now being torn up for paw
ing purposes.
Every electrical and telephone COM
pany in the city is preparing to put
down conduits on the street, where
such do not exist, but they are unable
to get the material from the factories.

1t is expected that $4,000 children
will present themselves at the public
schools of st. Paul when they open
Monday morning after the long sum-
mer vacation. The enrolment will ex-
coed that of last year by 1000.
The new Indian Mounds school will
be opened Monday for the first time.
Miss Mary l.. Dallas has been appoint
ed principal The new school building
contains six rooms and will accom-
modate as many grades. In a general
way the district of the school is bound
ed by Hudson avenue on the north,
Mendoza street on the west, St Paul
park on the east and the Burlington
tracks on the south.
There will be few changes in the
corps of teachers, the only important
change being the resignation of Miss
Brooks. TIL school board feels that
heavy loss has been sustained in her
departure.
Crowding Is Inevitable.
Supt. Smith says that even with
the new schools and the addition
al. rooms there will still be croWding
and half day sessions will be necessary
in many districts. The new Mckinley
school will not be ready for occupancy
before Oct. Is, and the high schools
will be especially crowded.
Principal Bryan and Mr.. Carol, of
the Central High school, have returned
from their vacations and will be on
hand at the opening Monday morning.
Miss Nix, the instructor in German
at the Central High, is expected to
return later in the week.
In the lower grades a simple method
of manual training will be introduced.
The little folks will be instructed in
basket, making and articles of that
class, using rattan for the purpose. The
boys in the fifth grade will do wood
working and the girls will be taught
fancy needlework and to make difficult
patterns of baskets.
Cooking Lessons Are Planned.
In the sixth seventh and eighth
grades the equipment for wood working
is already provided, manual training
having been previously conducted in
these grades at many schools.
In short time cooking will be a
part of the regular scheme of instruc-
ton In the public schools and it is pos
sible that it may be introduced in some
schools in the eighth grade this term
Ultimately 1t will be regular thing.
This year there is an unusual de-
mand for admission to the high schools.
The plan for the relief of the Mechan-
ic Arts School was rejected by the citi-
zens, and this will handicap the work
considerably. Just how far, the conges-
ton IN that particular school will en-
barrass the situation remains to be
seen.
According to Supt. Smith, there
has been growth in the interest
of the students in the study of Greek,
Spanish and trigonometry. An exam
ination of the high school curriculum
will show that St. Paul has as varied
a course as any high school in the
country can furnish. A student grad
uating from the full course can enter
any college, university or technical
school in the land.
