BoLos ATTACK AMERICANS.
Seven of the Eighteen Were Killed and
 Nearly All Wounded.

Victoria, B. C., February 5.-Manila pa pers received by the steamship Empress of China have particulars of the recent attack by bolomen on company of the North Infantry in Samar, which resulted in the death of seven of the eighteen at tackled. wounding eight others, five se- riously.
 The detachment from Company was struggling through thicket near Dapoad Pueblo, when a large party of bolomen rushed upon them. A bloody hand to hand combat ensued. The detachment clubbed their rifles and standing back to back they swung them at the heads of the enemy. Several eventually managed to bring their rifles into play and the bolo- men gradually fell away, leaving the small force of Americans with but three of them unwounded. The bolomen lost heavily detachment of native soldiers, attracted by the sound of the firing, hur- ried to the scene but arrived too late to take part in the combat. It is believed the unexpected arrival of these reinforce ments caused the bolomen to retreat thereby saving the detachment from an- initiation.

ENGLAND IS DEPENDED.
Count Sternberg Says Gold Fields Did
 Not Cause the War.

New York, February 5.-Count Adelbert campaign and who declares that the treatment he has received from the Brit ish press and official and non-officlal Englshmen leaves him no cause to be an anglophile, has written letter to the London Times, says the London corre- spondent for the New York Times, in which he says that while England is hated the Englishman is respected and loved. The continent does not understand the Boer war, and attacks England's po- litical morality because it misunder- stands the political principle which Eng land represents, the principle which made England's greatness political egotism.
 The economical advantage to be derived from the gold fields, says Count Stern berg, was merely a contributary cause of the South African war. The real cause making action imperative was the Eng fish principle the essence of which is free trade and straightforward competition.
 Count Sternburg says he always thought England was the enemy of the continent until he visited the United States and studied the economic conditions there. He now believes that the continental hatred of England is ungrateful and that the continent ought to awake and recognize that it's true enemy Is arising in the west like a great sun of gold whose first rays already have been projected across the Atlantic Germany and all Europe should join with England.

 Monkeys are hard animals to train. They never stay still any length of time and I consider the poses struck by Mrs. Murphy as the greatest task l ever ac- complished. She will not move mus cle for five minutes at time.

 After the act was over the little seven year old pony was brought off the stage. He weighs 112 pounds. One of the att tendants proceeded to remove little rub Der shoes from his feet. MT. Woodford explained they were to prevent his slip ping. Many children and grown people are attending the Auditorium this week to watch these animals at their work and none have been disappointed. Kindness is used entirely and a blow is never struck one of the animals unless it be- hayes badly. They are all like children, says MT. Woodford, and he has to treat them as such.

Rocholz to appoint commit ee of 10 to appear before the Board of Aldermen last night to ask that the franchise on Third avenue and on Twenty-flrst street, petitioned for by the Birmingham Rail way, Light and Power Company, be re- fused.
 The committee appointed was MT Gus Rocholz, MT. J. H. Roll, MT. Jake Bur ger, MT. Simon Klotz, MT. w. D. Wood, Mir. H. H. Sinnige MT. George Cleery, MT. B. H. Cooper, MT. J. B. McVeigh, MT. Ferd Marx and ex-Mayor VanHoose. The resolution was as follows:
 Be 1t resolved, That it is the sense of this board that it Is not to the permanent and best interests of the city and citizens of Birmingham and Jefferson county to grant the franchise on Third avenue and Twenty-frst street, as per the applica- tion of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power Company. This board is of the opinion that the issues at stake are so far-reaching that further time should be granted the citizens to investigate the results of the granting of this franchise. The disturbance of values of property by the frequent changes In the routing of car Is dangerous precedent and sl ould be carefully considered before it IL further It appears lO InlS board that Third avenue and Twenty first street are the only remaining avenue and street now unoccupied by the present railway system, and that this avenue and this portion of Twenty-f1rst street should be kept open for the convenience of the public in carriages and vehicles pending the time when other strong and indepen- dent railway, light and power companies may apply for them and give evidence to the city and the citizens of Birmingham that they have the intention and the money sufficient to occupy them perma- nently with strong and independent com petition.
 Your attention is specially directed to that portion of the application which seeks to lay tracks in Twenty-first street from First to Second avenue, constitut- ing, as it does in our opinion, a further and unnecessary blocking up of the ap- proach to the Twenty-frst street bridge, said bridge having been built for the safety comfort and convenience of the people, who desire to avoid the dangers of the railway crossings on grades.
 "It. is the judgment of the board that at least 60 days delay should be asked in this important matter"

Yesterday after the matinee he spent a few minutes telling a reporter of the time and patience it takes to train ani- mals
 Patience is virtue when you are training animals" he said, although some times you pick up one which is natural performer and takes to the work just as people do. An instance is the dog which dives from the ladder. I formerly had a monkey to do the act. One day the dog saw the monkey perform. He at once went to the ladder, climbed to the top, and when called by some of the men around, jumped into their arms. His case is, however, exceptional.
