LONDOX, May 13 (Sunday, 4:30 a. m.) The situation at the; seat of war in South Africa is as satisfactory, from the British view pyint, &i the most stngunine friend could hare hoped a week ago.

It isa evident that that strategy ot Lord Rel-' erts and the rapidity of his advance have bewildered afnd disheartened the Boers.: as their resistance since the British reached Zand river has been slight.

London. .May 12. President Steytt fed last evening, after vainly endeavor ing to persuade the Burghers to con timc' pposition. The Transvaalers said they could no longer fight bnj Orange Free State soil, and made off for the Vaal river. The Free Stater? accused the Transvaa!er5 f having ma le use of them and then deserting. ' Many of the Free Staters .have gone to their homes. I Lord Roberts, in telegraphing the war'oflice. regarding his entry imp Kn.onstadt, says:.

As the bulk of me l.rnisii opinion does not contem plate for a mo-nent that Mr. ' Fischer ami ms companions will achieve siic cess, u is only natural that serious inniiRiit is not contHiicntiv devoteil to prognostication of J.h.e date when . the warjin the TransvaarwiTl be ended. i.Mosi siimaics concur in tiie agree- in- tnat hostilitte will have ceased bv June, when President Krurrer ; learn mat tne last country appealed to. name ly, ine unueu states, wui attonl no help, and that he has no alternative in he lace of the overwhelming force n.w victoriously sweeping into his territory, but to sue for peace. What Great Bfit . ain's answer to that request' wilt be was unmistakably defined by Joseph Cluim- oeriain. secretary -oi state lor he col onies, at .Birmingham, yesterday, when he declared that the Boer republics must become crown, co.omes whose initial stage of organization will fx controlled by -the military administration. i J By agreeing to these terms President Kruger must, of course, give up alitor wnicn ne nav teen hgrttmg. ; isut. on he other hand, now that the terms have been so emphatically annunciated, they mrst either be granted or England will stitid defeated. The latter alt ernative however, does not enter England's cate gory of possibilities. Her people jarc firmly convinced that Lord Roberts Will steadily advance, perhaps with delays and losses of dare-devil unit, and, pos sibly, without indicting a crush ing defeat "until he occupies the Trani vaal. His forward progress, thev be lieve, will be stopped only when Presi dent Kruger. learning lot "the failurW of I-'ischcr's mission, asks for peace. 1 t AN AMERICAN POSTOFFICE. j Washington, May 12.

The fed eral' authorities found alleged cause for interfering, this evening, in the street car strike, inaugurated this morning, by the union employes of the Metropolitan Street Railway Co. Judge William C. Hook.' .of Leavenworth, sitting in Kan sas City, issued, from the United States district court tonight, an injunction that is more absolute and sweeping in its term than any injunction ever before secured in this district in a contention between labor and capital. The injunction is nuidc absolute for a wtek, the matter being set for hearing Saturday next, and if its restrictions shall be observed by the strikers, thj Metropolitan Company has its fight ivon. for -the strikers' hands are tied tor seven; days, and in the meantime the Metropolitan Company can go about a reorganization of its disrupted forces.

While there will not be by any means a full, crop of! fruit in the Willamette vatlcy this year as a. con sequence of ths late frosts and 'unseasonable' rains, there will 1m.1 no such failure air that of last Tear which was unciuestionably the most disastrous ever experienced by Oregon's ti nit ; growers. As a rule; orchardists becoine unnecessarily alarmed and make the extent ot the damage done and the prospective yield and the result is that the harvest is very unsatisfactory. 1 lie time lias come wnen growers I are enaSled to make a fair estimate re-j ganling the prospect tor tne lur.nn prune crop" remarked an extensive and conservative grower, yesterday afteri noon.- "While! in some localities the earlier estimate as set forth by the Statesman, have proved to be better than expected, still if considered fr the standioint of the state at large or as a commercial pr(iosiuon. it s believe tcday by thosei in a position to know that irontli to 1-1 of a normal croD 0 Italian prune would cover the situation The Red Hills ; south of Salem in and about Liberty and Kosedale seem to have been, specially favored, in many rases 4 ol a crop being now in sight.

I 'An Amusing 'Device That May Be I Made Out of Paper. The little folks in Japan make some very interesting paper toys, and none is mofe interesting than the irog mft ttfactured out of green paper. First cat a piece of paper into a square mitch larger than you -expect the frog to be. 'Draw lines from the corners oi 'the square and f from t hr middle of rhe sides. First fold the paper along the diagonal Jines, : then turn t't over on the other side and fold it along the lines from the sides. It will then form a kind of ?tx which can Ce pressed to gether along the folds in the shape of an unequal diamond. Now seizing the paper below the ends of the cones, fold- it backward so as to -have two more regular eyual points. When, this has been done to each of the eight cones the result will be a perfect diamond in the centred Then each one of the cones must be folded again so as to get all the points around the centre. Care must be taken to get the points as even and WquaL ai possible. To finish the frog -turn the upper points; out so that they spread 'aiid form the forelegs, and the lower points so that they form the hind legs. When it is finished a fine thread may be at tached to the frog's body, and by care ful jerks it almost stems to leap around on the floor or table. The pa per used should be stiff enough to re tain the folds as given to it, but not ,so brittle as to break; under the handling. Do not be discouraged if the first frog you make is lame,, for then it is cer tain that ihe points have not been folded evenly. SALES OF A WEEK IIOV CJROWERS ASSOCIATION SOLD i 5 760 BALES. California Grower Take Preliminary steps Toward Reg-slating the Question ot Over-Prodaetlon. (From Daily Statesman, May 13.) Manager James Winstanley, of the Oregon Hopgrowers' (Association,, yes terday reported that during the past week the association had made the :ale of 760 bales of hops, at prices that were satisfactory to the schedule of quota tions fixed by the association. .California: hop growers have takcri preliminary steps towards effecting an organization that is to be made in all 01 tne nop growing districts 01 tins country for the purpose of restrict:. ig the production to the legitimate de mand. The growers of the vicinity of Sacramento held a meeting last- Satttr- dav and a marked copy of the Record Union, of Sacramento, of Sunday, the 6th inst., and containing an account of the meeting, was yesterday received by the managers of the Oregon Hopgrow ers' Association. In part the account was os looows: 1 he meeting of the nop growers called for yesterday at Cavanaugh's Hall, though fairly well attended, was not as large as had been desired. The meeting was called for the purpose of formulating a plan for the organization of an association that will regulate the production of hops by restricting the acreage, and to take general charge 01 the industry, not only in this state, but in all the hop-growing states of the Union. "A general discussion was had as fo the advantages of forming an associa tion to regulate the production and prices ot Hops, and nearly all present took occasion to excess their views. Everyone favored thei idea. "Letters foni a large number of Oregon growers to 'Mr. Brewer the originator ot the proposition were read and the writers all heartily ap proved his idea. ""Mr. iBrewer said fhat ail that confd be done this year would le for the California growers to soon come to gether, organize an association and get it into working order. Tne growers in other states could then take it up and soon all could have associations work ing in harmony. " 'The hop growers have it in their power, said Mr. Brewer, 'to so regu late the production as to cause hops to bring a reasonable and paying price in the market. It is simpjy a question of demand and supply. e know what the demand i; to cut down our acre age and regufate the supply according ly. It is a simple proposition and can be carried out successfully if growers will only get together and agree what to do. "The following resolution was adopt- cu nv I'n.inimous vote or the meeting "Resolved, that it is the sense o the hop growers now assembled :r convention at Sacramento.

It would run throUglthe Grand Ron le valley and through the pafs in the Coast Range mountains a little to ilu n''.i oi the wagon road, at a poim where the elevation.. is nA tnore than (too feet . above sea level.
