ill, in a dispatch from I'ietermaritz

that the relief of Ladysniith rose out
of I,oiil Roberts' operations. "On the
contrary." Ik? says, "the operations of
Lord Huberts were assisted by the fact
that General r.uller kept 1(5,000 Boers
occupied. It would be a cruel and
unworthy thing to deprive the Natal
army of their hard-won laurels and
none would more vigorously repudiate
such a suggestion than Iu-d Iiberts

London. March 21. The following
dispatch has been received at the war
office from Lord Koberts, dated Iiloein
fontcin, Monday, March lit: "I have
received tlie following reply to my tele
gram of March 11 to the presidents of
the Free State and South African Re
public: " 'Your excellency's telegram reached
me yesterday. I assure you nothing
would grieve me inore than that my
burghers should make themselves
guilty of a deed such as that laid to
their charge by you. 1 am, however,
glad to say that you must have been
inital:eu. 1 have made iM-rsoual in
quiry of Ceneral lelarey, who was In
command of our burghers ut the place
mentioned by you.
" "lie denies entirely that our burgh
ers acted as stated by you, but ho
fays that on Saturday (the date being
illegible) the Lritish troops, when they
were about lil'ty yards from our posi
tion, put up their hands as well as a
white ting, whilst at the same time
your cannon bombarded the Bald
troops, with the result that Command
ant le 15 er was wounded. Yesterday
morning the head commandant wrote
in his account of the battle as follows:
"The soldiers hoisted the white flag,
but we were then lired at bv the Eng
lish cannons and comix-lied to charge."
"T'erhaps it is not known to vour
excellency that the same thing hap
pened at Spion kop, where, when a
portion of the troops hoisted a white
nag and put up their hands, and whilst
our burghers were busy disarming
them, another iNrtion of the troops
lired on our burghers; but some of
the I'.riiish troops were killed. It has
also been reported that at the last
battle of the J ngeja Knglish cannon
lired on troops who had surrendered.
" 'W ith reference to the explosive
bullets found in Cronje's laager and
elsewhere I can give your excellency
assurance that such bullets were not
purchased or allowed by the govern
ment. I, however, have no reason 'to
doubt your statement, as I know many
of the burghers of this state and of
the South African Republic took a
large number of Lee-Met ford rifles and
dum-dum and other bullets from Brit
ish troops.
" 'May I request your excellency, as
tlie c.uie Is closed to me, to make my
reply known to jour government, and
the neutral powers by cable?
"'STATE PRESIDENT.' "
The dispatch from Lord Roberts con
cludes as follows: "As inquiry Into
that matter proves bis honor's allega

In the evening a Da-lor sociable was
held, Mrs. Herold kindly opening her

decorations of flowers and potted

From Wednesday's Dally
The three boys In the county jail,
wbo were sentenced to the peniten
tiary several days ago by Judge Jessen,
together with joiiDgLee, the man who
stole a large number of railway tick
ets at Louisville recently, tried to gain
their liberty yesterday, but their plans
in that direction d d not materialize.
They succeeded in removing several
small iron bars from a chair in the
Vui.ding, aud utilized these instru
ments in an attempt to dig a hole
through the floor of their cage.
Wh n Deputy McBride brought the
men their breakfast this morning, be
noticed that a hole, about four inches
square, had been started in the floor.
The work had evidently not pro
gressed very far,as only a thin layer of
the metal hadbeen removed, and it
would have taken the men about six
months to complete the undertaking
with the facilities at their command.
They all denied any knowledge of the
matter, but the colored boy, Sam Jones,
told the deputy that Lee and one of the
Reade brothers were the promoters of
the scheme.
A thorough investigation of the in
terior of the jail was made, with a view
of ti'iding more tools, but none were
brought to light, Hie men were evi
dently not aware of wh it the basement
of the cell is composed of, or they
wou'd never have undertaken such a
hopeless tsk.
It is not tnought they will make any
more attempts to escape.

Mrs. Lefa M. Hoffmln, of Cardington, Ohio, says she was afflicted with Scrofulous sores and Kcienia
from birth. Her face at times became so badly swollen that she was not recognizable, and her limba
and bands were very sore. She was treated by all the doctors in town without being benefitted, aud in
her researches for relief, was told by an old physician to take S. S. S. She followed his advice and was
promptly cured, and has never had a return of the disease. This was seventeen years ago. She sincerely
believes she would have been in her grave vears ago but for S.. S. S., and adds, " what it hat done for me
it will do for others."

everything went smoothly uniil the

Murphy made a dash for liberty ard
succeeded in escaping from the officer.
M1 efforts to capiure him were of no

It is safe to say that if Constable Mc

How to Save Doctor Bill.
We have saved many doctor bills
since we began using Chamberlein's
Cough Remedy in our homo. We keep
a bottle open all the time, and when
ever any of ray family or myself l,egin
to catch cold we begin to use the
Cough Remedy, and as a result we
never have to send for a doctor and in
cur a large doctor bill, for Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy never fails to
cure. It is certainly a medicine of
great merit and worth. D. S. Mear
