(15y camel post to Nasrl.) The sirdar, General Heibcrt, Kitchener, with the Khal ifa's black standard, captured during the battle, entered Omdurman, the capital of Mahdiam, at 4 o'clock this afternoon, at the head of the Anglo Egyptaln column, nfter completely routing the dervishes and dealing a death blow to Mahdiam. Roughly, our losses were 200, while thousands of the dervishes were killed and wounded. The Anglo-Eyptlan army en camped at Agalza, eight, miles from Omdurman. This dervishes were three miles distant. At dawn today the cavalry patrolling toward Omdur man discovered the enemy advancing to the attack In battle array, chanting war songs. Their front consisted of infantry ' and cayalry, stretched tUiree,Br fjmmUe.8. Countless. banners II uttered oyer their masses, and the copper and brass drums resounded through the ranks of Mie savage warriors, who advanced unswervingly with all their old time ardor. Our infantry formed up outside the camp. On the left were the llrst bat talion Northumberland fusileer., the second battalion Lancashiic fusileeis and the first battalion Grenadier Guards, witli the Maxim battery, manned by the Royal Irish fusllcers. On our center were the first battalion Warwickshire regiment, the llrst bat talion Cameron Highlanders and the tirst battalion Lincolnshire regiment, vlth Maxims, worked by a detach ment of the royal artillery, under Ma jor Williams. On our right were the Soudanse brigades, commanded by General Maxwell and General McDonald.-The Egyptian brigades held the reserves, and both Hanks were sup ported by Maxim and NoidenfeM bat teries. At 7:20 a. m. the enemy crowded the ridges, above the camp and ad vanced steadily in enveloping forma tion. At 7:40our artillery opened lire which was answered by the dervish rlllemen.

But the withering lire maintained for 15 minutes by nil our line frustrated the attempt, and the dervishes, balked, swept toward our center, upon which they concentrated 11 fierce attack. A large force of horscrtien, trying to face a continuous hall of bullets from the Cammeron Highlanders and other companies was literally swert away and whose dead strewed the field. The dervishes planted their stand ards and determined to die at their side. Thus thousands perished and their rmd lea were left In heaps on the Held. FAMILY POISONED.

Hunter returns to Tell of Hardship and Death. This morning's overland brought G. M. Hunter, of Salem, to his home from the camp of the Oregon and Washington troops at the Presidio. Mr. Hunter Is crippled with rheuma tism and ptherwlsolnyalluedfrom tho treatment received at Camp Mcrrltt. For weeks he has lain in the hospital In San Francisco suffering from the exposure underwent since offering himself to the government to uphold the Hag and the name of our country. He Is pale and imaclatcd from lack of ordinary comfort and necessary food, and weak and debilitated from the awful experiences be has undergone. When Mr. Hunter enlisted he was In Eastern Oregon and went with the Washington boys, and has been sta tioned at the Presidio barracks so that he has been In nnrc comfortable quarters than the majority of the soldiers Slekness there is rampant and from one to live deaths occurr dally as the result of undue exposure and Insuf llclcnt food. Pneuinolnla, measles and typhoid fever are doing their deadly work and the brave boys must still suffer and die In a land of plenty and their native home. Mr. Hunter saw the Salem boys and reports them doing as well as could be expected under the conditions In which they are living. They have a comparatively good camping ground and arc making the most of the .sit uation.

Bein thi j Ihe Kind You Kate Wvrjts Botih' THE AMET. Edison s Wonderful New Invention in Salem, The exhibition of the great Edison Amct, at the opera house Saturday night, was attended by u large and attentive audience of at least one hundred different people. That Is, they were different for the first half hour, during the showman's decidedly thrilling encounter with his gas ma chine. After that many became Indif ferent. The long struggle between the exhibitor and Ills "Amet" was not so Interesting, from the fact that the Amet had decltiedly the best of it all the way through. It seemed to be a machine with a mind of Its own, and It sauntered along with a soothing deliberation, spurted with llghtnlng-llkc rapidity or stopped altogether, Just according to the vagaries of Its own sweet will. This lent a charming variety to the entertainment and rendered many of the scenes decidedly unique. For In. stance no one ever before saw a cayuse buck with such -calm Indifference to the pasMigcof time, as did the one In the scene portrayed. No one will eycr again witness a lapse or the laws of gravitation, so that a galloping horse mny remain suspended In the air for such a length of time, while he. care fully and unhurriedly gathers up his feet, counts them, and makes sure that they are all there, brings, them leisurely forward and. after mature deliberation as to how the would rather have them placcd.Jwiien In the fullness of time he again shall reach the ground, eventually gets things to suit him, and once more, colncs to a short rest on terra llrma. The bull light also was a curio, more particularly because it had been made up by pasting together fragments ot the 111ms from six or eight different lights. When you are watching a large black bull, standing, close by and bidding dellance to u villlanous looking Spaniard, and he Is Instantaneously transformed Into a small, red and white bull, away over on the farther side of an alto nether different arena, lumbering slowly along, in uninterested pursuit of an altogether different Dago, the effect Is decidedly novel, to say the least. However, there was one sec tion of this film which was evidently Intended for much slower reproduc tion, and this brought up the average 'forspech. i Tlic-traHasr sliooliffg around the arena with such astonish ing celerity that the unaided eye couldn't distinguish what be was, ex cept during the momentary pause, when ho rammed a horse up against the fence. There Is another Interesting thing In connection .vlth the "Amet." It has a habit ot rearing back a little and raising the scene until the upper half thereof disappears above but takes Its position below. This seems to be something new. The grapophono deserves especial attention, and If the audience had been provided with bricks It would hayc been the recipient thereof, at the time. The genuine magic lantern show, of which the entertainment jiy consists alSO contains some scenes nearly as good as you see In the shop windows, particularly tuo por traits which were announced as 'General" Sampson and "General Slay." Rut space forbids the extended re view we would like to give because the showman agreed to buy a hun dred copies If Tin: Journal would give him a good write-up.

It is the one certain and infallible cure for that depleting disease. It has been tried in many countries an4.upder. various conditions, and has never been known to fail. An old veteran yrites: " You may be interested to know my ex perience many years ago with Ayer's Ague Cure. The year before the war I was in Kansas. Some twenty of us were engaged in farming, and suddenly all were taken with fever and ague. We tried almost everything w thout gottlng any help, till at Ias(.I sent to the city and procured a bottloof Ayer's Ague Cure. I recovered at once. The others fol lowed my example, and they, too, recovered. Every one in camp took tho remedy and was cured by it.
