A Boer account of the skirmish with
the British armored train south of

the Burghe while they were destroy-
ing the railway. The third shot bit
a truck, and the train then steamed off
after which the Burghers did the work

A motion by Mr. Balfour. appropriat—
ing the entire special session for gov-

votcs against forty—eight.

to the speech from the throne was then
resumed. Philip James btunhope, Lib-
eral, moved an amendment strongly
disapproving the conduct of the nego—
tiations with the Transvaal. He at-
tacked the policy of the secretary of
state for the colonies. Joseph Cham-
berlain. and demanded that the hitter
should clear himself of the charge of
complicity in the Jameson raid. After
dcnouncing the action of Cecil Rhodes
and the South African League, Mr.
Stanhope said:

"The British high commissioner in
South Africa (Sir Alfred Milner) is
lacking in qualities to a diplomntlst in
his poaition. While entirely acquitting
the government as a whole of any con—
nection with these doubtful transac-
tions and believing that they are ani-
mated by pcaceful motives. i am con-
vinced that the secretary of state for
the colonies and the British high com-
missioner in South Africa have. for
the last twu years, been fully deter-
mined that wnr and only war should
end this crisis, and that they have
worked for this consummation during
the last year."

The amendment was seconded by
Samuel Thomas Evans. Liberal mem-
her for the middle dlvmlon of (Humor
gnnshlre.

The calling out of the militia and the
militia reserves occasioned widespread
Wonderment. Old stories of prepara-
tions against Continental combinations

value for their money.

The predominant colors are greys,
from the medium to the Oxford,
browns in herringbone stripes
lending, blues and blocks which
are always in proper taste.

The light overcoats are made of
soft materials extensively, and
the Covert coatings are more pop-
ular than they were last season.
For heavy coats soft materials
also predominate. such as Vicunas,
Cheviots and Undressed Wors-

to duplicate it anywhere for the
