Taper Published by
the English.

London, April &c. A parliamentary
paper was issued by the government to-
day, dealing with operations in South
Africa. 1t states that since June of last
year the Beers destroyed farms in TWEEN
ty-one districts of the Cape Colony and
Natal.
The official London Gazette publishes a
dispatch from Lord Kitchener. mailed
from Pretoria in March, reviewing the
operations since Feb. 10. 1t adds little
to what has already been published.
The full details of Lord Methuen's re-
verse and capture had not been received
at the time the dispatch was written
1t describes the sweeping movements i'm
the Wilge river and Kip river districts,
eliminating in Gen. Dewet's partial sue
cessful break through ON Feb. %, when
Col. Garratts new Zealand corps had
ffty-eight casualties.
The dispatch says that their conduct
reflected the highest credit and nothing
could be finer than their behavior. Lord
Kitchener mentions ninety officers and
153 non-commissioned officers and men
for conspicuous gallantry. Many of the
latter are dead. 8.

field & Iron leiver.

Washburn, April 26. = 1t is learned
from the most reliable sources here to-
day that the Northern Pacific directory
has made an offer for the property of
the Washburn Bayfield, & Iron River
railroad and there is every reason to be-
lieve that Receiver A. c. Frost will
accept the offer. The road has been idle
for several weeks. There has been an
endless amount of litigation over the
roads affairs and the case has been be-
fore nearly all the state and federal
judges, one phase of the litigation being
the sentencing of the district attorney
and sheriff to the Dane county Jail Cor
sixty days and the fining of a half dozen
more prominent citizens for contempt of
the federal courts orders. The present
deal will likely go through in which
event it will be an advantageous thing
for this city and will likely terminate
the litigation which has been pending.
