BOERS REPULSED
AT ALIWAL
Commando of Two Hundred Tried In
effectually to Cross' Orange River.
Cape Town, Jan. 11. A. commanao,
about 200 strong, crossed the Orange
river near Aliwal. It waB met on the
borders of the Aliwal, Wodebouee and
Harkle East districts by a body of police
and mounted farmers and was repulsed
with some loss. It will probably attempt
to cross the river again.
Dewet was last reported in the neigh
borhood of Bothaville. All the towns
in Orange Colony on the main line of
railway are strongly held by the British
and the Boers show no disposition to ap
proach them.
The British warship Sybil has anchored
in Lambert's bay and landed a force of
bluejackets and a number of guns. This
force has constructed entrenchments.
Hertzog's mam body, 700 strong, with
two gunB has crossed the Koggeveld
mountains and is now Drobably in the
neighborhood of Elaand's Drift, 50 miles
eaEt of Clan William.
Hartzog'e intention, apparently, is to
move toward Ceres and Worchester
Only a few passes aie passable for the
guns and the whole country is difficult
to traverse. The passes are narrow and
easily defended. According to latest re
liable reports another party of 500 Boers
haB reached the Doom River, 70 miles
south of Calvinia. The British are doing
all iu their power to meet the situation.
Refugees from Calviniaand Clan William
are flocking to Piequetberg road. They
state that many poor whites are certain
to join the Boers, as are also many bit
ter bondsmen in the neighborhood of
Clan William and Malnsberg, who open
ly declare they intend to join the in
vaders.
Attack on Machadoilori.
London, Jan. 11. The following dis
patch has been received from General
Kitchener, dated Pretoria, January 10:
"The Boers attacked Machadodorp laet
night, but were driven oil' before dawn.
"Hertz3?'9 commando is in the neigh
borhood of Sutherland, Capo Colony.
Settle is organizing n column to head
him oil.
"In ttie Midlands and eastward the
Boers have broken up into small bodies,
some leturniiig north and some hiding
in the northwest of Jamestown."
Knir.'ss to Have Kttixe Force.
Chicago, Jan. 11. A special to the
Record from Vancouver, B. C, says:
Captain P. L. Jickhart, correspondent
of tiie Loudon Times, in China, who ac
companied General Gaselee's relief force,
left for New York, en route to London,
today.
Speaking of the situation in China, he
said : "I think that so far as Li Hung
Chang himself is concerned, he is per
fectly etucere in his position as mediator,
but my observation leads me to judge
that any agreement the Chinese make
now would be kept by ttiem no longer
than it suited their convenience. The
empress dowager will by Spring have a
tremendous force of men armed with
modern rifles ut tier command, and
neither she nor Prince Tuan has the
slightest chance of falling into the hands
of the allied forces. Next summer will
see the great struggle between the well
organized Boxers under the Empress and
Prince Tuan and the allied forces in their
attempt to seat the young emperor firm
ly on the throiie."
Colrt SU'fl or Death,
"There is but one small chance to
save yonr life and that 1b through an
operation," was the awful prospect set
before Mrs. I. B. Hunt, of Lime Ridge,
Wis., by her doctor after vainly trying
to cure tier of a frightful case of stomach
trouble and yellow jaundice. He didn't
count on me marvellous power of Elec
tric Billets to cure stomach and liver
troubles, but she heard of it, took seven
bottles, was wholly cured, avoided eur
geon,s knife, now weighs more and feels
better than ever. It is positively guar
anteed to cure stomach, liver, and kid
ney troubles and never diseapolnts.

Utnllli Iiiilltx to IIh Ours.
Copenhagen, Jan. 11. The negotia
tions for the sale of the Danish West
Indies to the United States are seeming
ly approaching settlement. The matter
haB been placed in the hands of the
linance committee of the Higsdag, with
the view of arranging the difference in
the price asked and offered. The King
and Ministry are in favor of the sale, but
final action may be delayed by powerful
opposition both in the islands and here.
A Might of Terror,
"Awful anxiety was felt for tho
widow of the brave General Burnham of
Machias, Me., when tho doctors said
she could not live till morning," writes
Mrs. S. II. Lincoln, who attended her
that fearful night. "All thought she
tii u st soon die from Pneumonia, but she
begged for Dr. King's New Discovery,
saying it had more than once saved Iter
life, and had cured her of Consumption,
After three small doses she slept easily
all night, and its further use completely
cured her." This marvelous medicine
is guaranteed to cure all Throat, Chest
and Lung Diseases, Only f)0o and $1.00.
