OREGON; MONDAY, JANUARYS 1896.
IN HEnORIAH.
Amoni; tba "dates to bo rememberad"
found in lbs New Year'a edition ot tbo
Roseburg Review is tbe following:
"August 1. Mrs. Langley Hall, p:o
neer of '53, died at her home east of Oak
land." Only two lines in a newspaper's col
umn, but wbo8bali moasure tbo space it
occupies in tho hearts of theso who knew
and loved ber.
"In somo far away land tho twilight
lingers longer than with us; tbe evening
clow pauses upon the hill tops, lies lov
ingly upon sea and shore, fades slowly
and is lost in btar-llt night." So was it
ordained that ber lifo should pass into a
sunsetbeauty that softened and mellowed
with a touch of tbe divine in all things it
Bhono upon. Her dear, aged face, that
tho passing years had touched so lightly,
seemed transfigured as she watched tbe
light of earth's sunset. Watched alio the
fading light alone? I think not. Often
for her the gates of the New Jerusalem
must have been in those clouds of glory,
and her heart been full of tho joy b!ib
looked for. Who shall say fcho saw uot
sometimes in her mnsingd, the tiny girl"
in dear, old England, going to school
and ii-.aUirjg glad tbe hearts about her,
acd then tho light-hearted English
maiden w bo there found ber early love
and, later started with biui forth ujon
the long lifj journey. They "climbed
the bill together" most time in sunshine,
sometimes in the shade. Many children
came to bless their home, and the bonee
was rilled with laughter. Her room was
the hoart of the household, and a great
heart it was. Strauger and friend camo
to her for comfort and care. Did her
patieuce and sympathy never fail? Was
there a store sufficient for all t ie deruan Js
upon it? If it failed none ever knew.
There whs Email time for work outside
tbe wide home circle. Who will say her
infloenco was- less great aud lc?s far
reaching?
The years passed on and crowned her
face with white roses. Tho golden wed
ding came and went. After the gather
ing twilight night nine one. Her room
was bright with the sunshino and sll
that loving bauds could offer, and I think
that wo did not quite realize that tiod
had left with us one of his own, until her
chair was empty arid the blessed pres
ence had passed into a blessed memory.
The resurrection song was in the air
when tbe twilight for her had ended,
and she lay in eternal sunshine. A rtre
and wondrous legacy did sho bequeath
to ns to whom was given to know and
lovo her. An ideal she gave us. A 6tar
is set in our firmament to gnide us over
upward. It is an ideal of unselfish, beau
tiful womanhood, o! trusting, simple
faith, of bigh hope and patient endeavor,
od help us to move toward the star, to
keep" always in our hearts its golden
gleaming. lyoia.

'GRAPH NEWS
A Stubborn Fight.
Cape Tow.w Jan. 0. It is learned that
after Wednesday's fight Dr. Jamicaon's
column, containing originally about 700
men, moved southwards, fighting bard
all tho way throughout the night, and
eventually reached Viakvonteis, six
miles from Johannesburg, Thursday
morning, when the column was com
pletely surrounded by 4800 Boers. In
spite of this, Jamieson's followers
fought stubbornly until noon, when all
their cartridges were exhausted. In ad
dition they had not tasted food for '.2-1
hours and were worn out, but the white
flag was not hoisted by Jamieson's or
ders. It is known Jamieson expected
2000 Uitlander3 to join him at Krugers
dorf. The Dutch press is jubilant at this
lowering of British prestige, and advo
cates the incorporation of "Rhodasia"
with the Transvaal republic.
The news that Hon. Cecil lihodes, pre
mier of Cape Colony, has resigned is
conGrmcd. It is not known if his resig
nation lias been accepted by the gov
ernor, Sir Hercules Robinson.
Bonds Issued.
Wasiuxuton, Jan. G. The announce
ment last night that the secretary bad
asked for bids for a bond issue ot $100,-
000,000, was a surprise to the subordin
ate officials of tliu treasury department.
It is probable no one here lint tbe presi
dent, and probably Secretary OIney,
knew of Carlislo's intention. Indeed, it
is believed a conclusion was not reached
until latu yesterday afternoon.
The new bonds will not differ iu any
respect from those issued to the syndi
cate, and will be printed from tho old
plates.
Persons well qualified to judge of the
resnlt of the issue, do not look for large
subscriptions from private individuals,
and the opinion is expressed that tbe
syndicate's bid for tbo t ntiro issue will
be accepted.
His Loss Heavy.
Loxnov, Jan. 6. The governor of
Natal, Hir Walter Francis Healey Hutch
ison, telegraphs, upon Beor authority,
that 130 of Jamieson's followers were
killed, and 3" wounded. On the Boer
side, it is added, three were killed, and
five wounded. The statement cabled
tbe United States by a news agency that
Dr. Jamieson had been released from
custody at Pretoria is officially stated to
be without foundation. All sorts of
rumors are in circulation, due to tbe
delay in receiving accurate news from
Cape Colony.
It is reported the British government
is hurrying troops from India to Cape
Town, but there would seem to be no
necessito for such a step, as a concen
tration of military forces from other
British African colonies could be
quickly made there if necessary.
The City of Havana.
Havana, Jan. 5. Havana bus passed
a day of nervousness and anxiety, and
has been in hourly apprehension of an
attack by the insurgent army, or a part

Manv hundreds of noncombatant in-

Havana to await tbo passing of tbe

class of tho opuation is iu a state of
consternation and dismay, and epreads
an infectious spirit of panic through all

The authorities no longer make the

At Johannesburg.
London, Jan. 6, Delayed dispatches
from Johannesburg arriving today show
that Tuesday last there was intense ex
citement there, peoplo hurrying into
town from tbe mines and outlying
country. The cential committeemen
constituted themselves a provisional gov
ernment for tbe town, and announced
that ample provision would be made to
defend it against any body of Boers.
The provisional government estab
lished iteclf in the tonsolidated gold
field building and three Maxim guns
were placed in advantageous positions
about it. The new govornment then
sent an ultimatum to tbe government of
President Kroger, who proposed a con
ference at Pretoria the following day,
Wednesday. Tbe committeo hesitated
to go to Pretoria without a conduct, and
Dr. Jamieson at that time was hourly ex
pected at Johannesburg.
Crowds surrounded the consolidated
gold fields building and the work ol re
cruiting was in full swing. Numerous
peoplo left town during tbe night in
bands of 50 each.
Later tho committee sent the following
communication to Sir Hercules Robin
son, governor ol Uupe tjoiony: "we
have obsolute information that a large
body of Boers have been commanded to
immediately attack Johannesburg and
snoot on sigut ail who nave Leen con
cerned in tho agitation. Affairs are so
critical that we ask you to intervene to
protect tho lives of citizens, who haye
long agitated legally for their rights."
