' New York, Nov. 2. A dispatch to
the World from London says: Gen
eral "Joubert's movement, to cut off
- General White as Ladysmlth from Co
' lesno is being carried out, and it is
probable that Pietermarltzburg,' the
capital of Natal, will fall into General
Joubert's hands before General Buller
y and reinforcements can arrive.
The South African situation is again
causing the' deepest alarm. The si
lence of the ' war office, which today
received several dispatches from Cape
Town and Durban, the holding back of
of the list of casualties at Ladysmlth
and finally, the announcement of the
mobilization of the second army corps
on the 10th of this month, all combine
to show that the position of British
power-in -South Africa ds in gravest
peril.
The World's correspondent learns
that the Dutch uprising In Northern
Cape Colony has assumed menacing
proportions, owing to the Boer suc
cesses, while the native unreet all
along the Transvaal and the Orange
Free State has become more menacing.
The natives cannot be relied on by
either side, but will probably fight for
; their own land. . - : t

Cape and Natal Dutch, the natives

WHITE'S RETREAT
CUT OFF
Boers Have Control of
Colenso. -
London,
has Usued
Nov. 5. The war office
the following announce
ment;
"The cononial office has received in
formation to the effect that the British
troops have withdrawn from Colenso
acid have concentrated futfaer south,
but we-have no news of any erigagment
in that neighborhood.". - .
The evacuation of Colenso is un
doubtedly a most serious matter for the
British In Natal, as It not only testifies
to the complete investment of Lady
smith by the Boers, but makes the
relief of General Sir George Stewart
White an extremely difficult operation.
Cole d so is the point where the railway
from Ladysmlth crosses the Tugela
riyer, which is now in flood. The
town itself is of smell importance. It
is dominated by the hills on the north
side of the river, and so was untenable
if the Boers have advanced, as they
seem to have done. Moreover, only a
small naval and colonial force was sta
tioned at Colenso.
The seriousness of the evacuation,
however, lies in the fact that Commandant-General
Joubert, while com
pletely investing Sir George White at
Ladysmlth, can seize this Tugela
bridge, and, if be has aufficent troops,
can detach a force and- sent it south
ward on Pietermaritzburg, and, inany
case by destroying the bridge and rail
pay, can prevent any relief expedition
reaching Sir George White for some
time.

Convicted In Idaho After a Noted Career in
the Northwest.
Colfax, Wash., Nov. 6. -Word has
been received from Silver City, Idaho,
that Chet Hardesty and W. O. Starr
have been convicted- of grand larceny,
The convicted men are two of the most
noted horse and cattle thieves ; that
have ever operated in the Northwest.
They were the leaders of, a gang of
thieves ' that . during .the past . three
years-haye stolen thousands of bead of
cattle and horses in Eastern Oregon
and Washington aod Northern Idaho,
and through the completeness of their
system of ' espionage have during all
this time succeeded in escaping arrest
and conviction. "
In Januaay- of this-year Hardesty
and Starr, who at that time was gen
erally known by the name of Casey
passed through Whitman county, ' and
on the way gathered up a numbe f
horses belonging to other people. . The
sheriff was notified within a few. days,
and the stolen horses were located in
Walla Walla county. A man was em
ployed to watch the horses, while fur
ther search was made for the thieves.
The two men were located in Umatilla
county,' 'Oregon, and Sheriff Canutt
went to Athena, where .the men were
reported to be. That night the horses
were stolen from the guard and the
men struck out into the .blue moun
tains. The next heard of them was
when' they were arrested by the Idaho
officers, after a battle in which Starr,
or Casey, was shot through the body.

Lowell yesterday passed sentence up
on Edwin L. Mims, convicted of man
slaughter in the killing of J. Henry
Miller on the night of August 23, 1899,
in Miller's saloon. The defense had
moved the court for a new trial, and
for the setting aside of the yerdict,
setting up the finding of new evidence,
and . the' fact that the jury had merely
copopromised in reaching a verdict
and intimating . that the jury, instead
of considering the rights of the 'de
fended, bad been actuated by motives
of economy in saving the county fur
ther expense, which would be incurred
in case of a disagreement. This mo
tion, Judge Lowell denied.
When he came to the passing of
sentence, the oourt asked Mr. Mima if
be had anything to say why the judg
ment of the court should not be passed
upon him, and he replied:
"Nothing, your honor,- excepting

Artlllei y Duel at Ladysmlth.'
London, Nov. 4. A dispatch from
Ladysmlth, dated November 2, morn
ing says:
"During the night the Boers moved
near the British position and mounted
guns in fresh places. Meanwhile the
naval guns have been moyed to more
favorable ' positions, nearer the town
and commanding some of the Boer
batteries. At 6 o'clock this morning
General White ordered the bombard
meat ' of the enemy, and the blue
jackets opened the ball. The Boers
replied vigorously. They fired straight,
and some of the British were hit. A
terrible artillery duel has been pro
ceeding for over three hours. So far
the naval guns are the only ones that
have engaged the enemy."

Than Sherman's March to Sea. i
New York, Nov.- 6. A dispatch to

brief account of a 'brilliant sortie by

Later came a : message by pigeon
post, forwarded by General Buller,
showing the town holding out on Fri
day and hard fighting going on. There
was also a .brief reference' to a Boer
attack upon Colenso, the sequence, of
which had already oome in the tidings
from the colonial office that the Brit
ish garrison bad fallen back and aban
doned the defense of the bridge over
the Tugela. -.-,....
General Joubert's object was appar
ently secured In breaking communica
tion with the coast and preventing the
movement of reinforcements to Lady
smith, but some military men predicted
that he would set a large force in
motion for Pietermarltzburg and Dur
ban and ' complete the conquest of
Natal before the arrival of the British
armycorps. . ' ' -
This would be a bolder and moie
reckless movemoot than Sherman's
march to Savannah, since the British
fleet commands the seacoast. 'The
more probable theory is that Joubert
has closed in upon Ladysmlth, after
driving the English out 'of Colenso,
and is making strenuous efforts to
overwhelm White's army with; his
superior force. . ' . ; - .. i
A rumor of a' general uprising' of

Continental Ke ports of Disasters Proven
to Be Ontrne. .
London, Nov. 6. An immense
weight has been lifted from the public
mind by a brief official dispatch pub
lished this morning, by which the con
tinental stories of disaster at Lady
smith are proveu to be false. From
the fact that General White is able to
take the offensive and shell the Boer
camp, it seems that Ladysmlth is not
so closely besieged as was supposed.
The movement of the Boers in Cape
Colony is beginning to awaken the
British fears that they have greatly
underestimated the forces they will
have to meet, and that Bailer's task
may not be so easy as anticipated.

HOW THEY SAVED THEIR H011E.
They started their new happy life of love
and hope together in a tnm-bnght-tlnted
little house that stood back upon a terraced
lawn. A smooth path led to the broad
" stoop " and hospitable piazza. The long
weep of roof, the wide-curving "bays"
and the little western turret with oriel
windows bespoke ample roomJand light and
air and gorgeous sunsets.
O. how thev loved that little home I He
was industrious, frugal, ambitious ; she a
tender wile with a heart full of devotion ;
and both of them determined at any cost
of struggle or sacrifice to earn and pay for
this cherished dwelling place, and possess
it as their very own ; a cosey nest In days
'of sunshine, a refuge in time of trouble, a
fireside, a home.
HOW TROUBLE CAMB.
At first it seemed smooth sailing. He
was glad to work over-time, and she being
deft with needle and scissors helped the
neighbors with their, gowns. In snch
ways a few dollars were added to the
small, home-making fund. Day after day,
early and late, theT earnestly planned and
toiled, never realizing that they were going
beyond their strength, until the little break
downs began to come.
. Many a morning he would rise with his
head feeling as he expressed R,"Uke a
tnmp of lead," and no stomach for the
dainty breakfast she had prepared. "O,
you must eat 1 " she would exclaim anxi
ously, "You can never work without it"
And all the time trying to smile, she would
pass her hand lightly across her own fore
head as jt to brush away the pain that
snapped and darted underneath.
Then came days when he could neither
eat nor work at all ; when his sight was
blurred and dizzy, his -limbs weighted
down as if with shackles ; his whole Dody
full of sickness and nausea and distaste
of living, and his mind dark with dismal
forebodings. Describing this terrible time
afterward he said to a friend :
"What troubled me most was that I
could not understand what was the matter
with me. The doctors said it was con
sumption ; they did me no good. I knew
something was killing me by inches.
Finally I had to give up and go to bed. I
could hardly lift my head off the pillow.
My brother wanted to write to Dr. Pierce
of Buffalo, and brought me three bottles
of his 'Golden Medical Discovery' and
begged me to take it. I didn't have much
faith but said to my wife :
"What's the use? The doctors don't
help me a bit and nothing else will, i At
this rate I'll die anyway. .This ' Discovery '
canhnrt me; it may help me; I'll try these
three bottles just to please Jim. He was
right too. The first bottle we fit straight to
my digestion and gave me an appetite so I
relished my food. I felt as if every mouth
ful was doing me good and making good
blood in my veins. I began to feel better
and pick up my flesh; my bowels came
around right and I guess my liver sort of
waked up. My cough stopped. I got good
and strong and in four weeks I was back at
work again like a man." -
HOW TROUBLE WENT A WAT.
"Mv wife never let on how miserable '
she was feeling all the while; when I,
found it out I made her take tne discov
ery too and Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion for her nerves, and she says she's just
made over new again. I sent for his great
' Medical Adviser. ' It's the grandest dook
you ever saw. If we'd had it before, we
would have saved hundreds of dollars.''
Then came new hopes, new plans, new
Sower and fresh achievements. The little
ome in time became their very own,
earned and paid for by the erstwhile
nerveless hands and brain now restored to
vigor and activity by the most remarkable
life-renewing " Discovery''' that medical
science has ever revealed to man. And
when at length a sweet, fresh little life
came to bless their lives, they felt that
happiness was complete.
This is a true story and it cannot be told
too often or too strongly. What this great
" Discovery " did for this man, it has done
for thousands of men and women in every
corner of this Union, and in every civilized
country on the globe.
The " Golden Medical Discovery" is sold
by all good dealers in medicines every
where.
