BIERS ABOUT 1,000 STRONG ou iH -------- INTEREST ATTACHES TO THIS NEW ADVANCE. The Boers Are Piling Up Supplies In Bushman Land Where They Hope To Retire--Their Pur- suit Will be Difficult and Cam- paigning Very Arduous. Pretoria, Feb, 25.--Gen. French has inaugurated a "move against the Boers, in Cape Colony, similar to that recently adopted by lord Kitch- ener against Dewet's - forces. Great interest - attaches to this advance against the combined commandoes of Boers and rebels who have for many weeks been making themselves at home in the north-western part of western Cape Colony. The strength of the enemy is unknown, but it is probably not less than 1,000, many of however, are . said to be un- armed rebels. Commandant MWaritz, in antivipa- tion of the British advance, has been sending large quantities of grain into Bushmanland, the vast and partly un- surveyed region bounded on the west hy Namaqualand, and on the nor)' by the Orange river. It is expected that the Boers will retire into this district, where pursuit will be difficult and campaigning very arduous owing to. the scarcity of water, ---- A GOVERNMENT ROAD. The Bill For Its Construction Passed The "House. Toronto, Feb. 26.--The bill for the construction by the government of the Temiscamingwe & Northern On- tario railwey passed its second read- ing in the house last night. The road, Mr. Latchford said, in moving the sec- ond reading, would have North Bay as its southern terminus. Mattawa was unsuitable, because the country north of that point was so diffioult that the road could not be built ex- cept at enormous cost and such a line would be paralelled for a distance of forty miles by a line on the Quebec side of the river. . Moreover, North Bay had superior advantages as a distributing point, Saving eonnections with Western Central and Southern Ontario and with Georgian bay and lake Nipissing. The cost of the road which is at present contemplated, would be 106 miles in length and would cost between $1,750,000 and $2,- 000,000, A BIG LEGAL FEE. Lord Milton Will Have To Pay $1,250,000. "London, Web. 26.-The death of old lord Filewilliam will make a very reat difference to his grandeon, lord Milton. the successor to the title. The Pitawilliam property is enor: mously rich, and the new peer will have to pay legacy duty to the ex- tent of something like a million and a quarter dollars, © some people say more than that, as a grandson al- ways has to pay more than a son' in England. Strange to say, the Fitzwilliam pro- perty has never been entailed. It is jerstood there is not a par- ticle ofMewelry for the new lady Fitz: william. She is the second daughter of lod ana lady Zetland, a very bright, clever woman, and a capital amateur actress. Fell In Love In A Snowbank. Binghampton, N.Y., Feb. 26.---A ro- mantic wedding was the result of the snow blodkade, the contracting par- ties being Miss glithel King, Jefferson, Wis., and Willis Hall, an oil magnate. Miss King had been visiting friends in thix section of the éountry and had started for a western trip. The train on which she was travelling became blodkaded in a whan Tar from any station. The thee succeeded in getting food passengers by raiding nearby farms, and the pas- sengers proceeded to make themselves comfortable. They quickly fraternized, and in this informal mavner, Hall met Miss King. It was a case of love at first sight, and Hall, who is noted for his business energy, applied it to his love-making with such swecess that 06 [within six hours Miss King had pro- mised to become Mrs, Hall. The room then seoured the services of ¢, Fred. Cummings, who was on the train, and there was a wedding in the presence of all the passengers who could be accommoda: in one oar. Discussed Referendum.

ON A QUESTION OF RETURNS RESULT CAUSED UPROAROUS DEMONSTRATION. The Defeat Was Due Tq The Slack- ness of The Ministerialists and the) Abstention of Some Mem- bers From Voting Out of Sym- pathy. Londen, Feb, 26.--Just before ad- journing, at midnight, the govern ment was defeated in the house of commons in a division on a question that does mot involve the govern: ment 's stability, but tends to damage its prestige. The subject under dis- amsion was the hours of railway em- ployees. Maj. Cecil Norton, a liberal, complains that certain railway com- panies were not complying with the law and overworking their servants, and he moved that the companies be compelled to make retuned every six months with the view of checking the actice. Gerald Balfour, president of the board of trade, on behalf of the gov: ernment, opposed the motion as it stoorl, although he was willing to accept it in a modified form. The house divided on Maj. Norton's motion, which was adopted by a vote of 151 to 144, the government being thus defeated by a majority ol seven. When the result was announced the opposition burst into uprvaripls cheers, the Irish members being es pecially triumphant. An Irish wag awakened peals of laughter by shout ing, "a serious railway accident." The defeat was due to the slackness of some of the ministerialists and the abstention of othérs from voting ow- ing to their sympathy with Maj. Nor. ton's motion. Many members con- demn Mr. Balfour's handling of the subject. Presenting Petitions. London, Feb. 26.--In the house of commons, yesterday, the Right Mon. J. W.

Mr, Mellor presented other petitions to a like effect from the colonies of New Zealand, Canada, and the West Indies and from British subjects in India, China, Jerusalem, and the continent of Furope, and within England itself to the number of 281,647; from Scot land, 56,000; Ireland, 16,000, and Wales, 6,570. Mr. Mellor's activity in parliament is in, favor of the abolition of Bivhop vote" ai the defence of Protestantism within the Church" of England.

Hamilton, Ont., Feb, 26.--The second séetion of train No. 3, from Niagara Falls, ran into the rear of the Tovon to express, standing on the main track at the Stuart street station, this morning.

The engineer of No. 3, the baggage car and the rear coach of the Toronta train, were morg or less in jured. The cause of the accident can not be definitely determined. Practical Temperance. London, Feb. 26. Within the last three years the London county eoun cil has devoted more than $1,256 000 to the practical work of tempérance. It is 'one of the consequences of the extensive improvements being made in London at present. When soquiring property for the necessary widening of different streets many public houses, with licenses and good-will, come into the possession of the council. These properties are very valiatle, bmt the council, instead of renewing them for ises in the neighborhood, is de liberately civing them up, seeing at the same time that no new licenses for these localities are issued In this way the number of public houses in London has been diminished by aa, which were valued at 81.372, Trying To Whitewash Him.
