; <THE TRANSCRIPT. FRIDAY.... Dec. 29, 1899: “A PREDICTION CAME. TRUE. Englishman Who. Knew'.More Than the British War Office, Norman M. MacLeod, whose name is well known in connestion with South African affairs, publishes a letter received by him three or four years ago from an Englishman living in Natal, which seems to prove that the Boers meditated war even at that distant period, and contains some remarkable predictions as to the sort of campaign which would be necessary to subdue them. The writer says : “The Boers are playing a big game. _ Of course we know, being in the country. They have armed every man from 14 years old to 60 with Martinis, and 50 rounds, with orders to sleep on our cartridges. They gave my brother and ” myself the same instructions. If there is war, it will require about four columne of troops of not less than 20,000 in each column, as all-the Free State Natal and old colony Boers are going to join them for certain fact, and lots of young British also,who have everything in the country, and are a bit afraid that the imperial government will only half do it with small lots of troops, and have more reverses. They must remember the Boers can move about quick witheut commissariat, living on beef and water, and they will make a raid in one column at a time, so each colamn should be strong enough to stand any aetermined rush they may make In Pretoria they have 100 or more large guns, and from 150 to 200 men who are well trained. to the cannon; and they have lately, I hear, got out German officers. The Boer game is to get Natal and the old colony back, and make one big Dutch republic, they say with old Paul Krueger as the first President. British residents about the borders, such as Newcastle, Duudee, etc., are very uneasy how matters will turn out; but believe me, if it comes to a war, England will have to fight desperately to hold any possession in South Africa. There are such a lot of Germans with the Boers. I believe they will be able, with Natal, old colony and Transvaal, to put up about 75,000 really good all-round men, their average being equal to our best velunteers for shooting and riding, besides being up to the country, and I must say I ‘think it will take two or three to one of our ordinary men to beat them. Our columns should be very strong in artillery, and keeps scouts out at least five or six miles, so as not to be caught ‘io duugas, kopjes, ur drifts, as the Boers always shoot artillery animals in bad places to causea block. Ithink it will require eighty to one hundred thousand regulars to do the thing really properly.” CE ECV aide ae cane Puallman, Ill., Is Made Commonplace by a Decree of the Supreme Court. Pullman, Ill., used to be a model town to look at. It is no longer good to look at; people who live there say that it’s a better town to live in, hut there’s less fame in that. No more will traveling Englishmen exclaim at its wonders, or °*French monographists write learnedly of it without seeing it. The change of Pullman into an ordinary humdrum suburb is due partly te the extension of Chicago’s city limits, but mainly to a decision of the Illinois supreme court that the Puilman company was formed for building cars and not for landscape gardening, municipal government and the sale of cabbages and baking powder at retail. The company has five yearsin which to sell such of its effects as do not concern the making of cars. Two of the three parks are destroyed and _ the tracks of the [linois Central railroad run across the famous athletic field. once one of the finest in the country. The stone wall and gate that once fenced in the town are removed. Allits streets area part of the Chicagosysten . now. The Pullman Gas company = ha: been sold to the Chicigo gas trust, the + city has taken over tia water pipes and * the steam-heating may go out of business. The residents are ‘getting gas, ‘water and groceries cheaper—for Chicago marketmen ean now sell at their doors —but they are a little nervous about the prospects about getting along without steam beat. . A new company will probably be formed to take the residences and unused land under'a charter that will permit these functions. But the old Pullman company, is going to build ears and nothing else, The model village is a model no more. As a superintendent says: “The company has no more consideration. for its, employes. than the employes. have for the companv. It was their complaint that brought about the pete. ety attack upon Mr. Pullman and eniled in the décree of the supreme court. “They got what they demanded from the state, and why should they expect the company to continye the violation of its charter by maintaining parks for them? The company needs the land and will put it to use.” So Pullman as a model town dies with its founder.—-N. Y. World. . A New Year Feast. If. you likeroast turkey and’ ‘the good things that go with it at a fitst-clase » supper, visit the Council Chamber saloon. New Yeur. eve.

OldTimers Revisit the sit the Scenes of thelr Early Labors. Yesterday the fransonmr mentioned that Daniel A. Clark of Pawtucket, RB. I., and R. F. Habn of Boston were in foun. The gentlemen . left.on this morning’s stage for Rough and Ready. who had arrived the night before from San Jose where they had attended the Pioneers’ re-union and férmed the acquaintance of Hon. Niles Searls, disclosed the fact that they hed mined in this county in 1850-51, and: that the object of their visit was to take another look at the old stamping grounds. They had knocked around town all day without finding anybody that they remembered or a _ who could recall them. Mr. Hahn was one of the pioneer gold-hunters” of Coyotevillé just beyond the present Catholic cemetery on West Broad street. Mr. ‘Olark had a claim on Whiteside’s Ravine near Rough and Ready. > ~ “It makes.a man feel old to see 5 the changes that have taken place since we made our pile and left here in the early fifties,” said Mr. Hahn last night. “The whole face of the country has changed, . to say nothing at all about the people, . Then everything was hustle . and bustle and everybody was: striving to get rich as soon as possible so ae to return to the States. We expected the country would be worked out ina year or two more so there would be nothing bat a howling waste: left. Back we come after nearly half a century’s absence to find a modern and beautiful city of five or six thousand people who are enjoying all the luxuries of civilization, and your great quartz mines make our early day operations in gravel pale into insignificance,” “And the best of it is,” added Mr.’ Mr. Clark, “that the development of your quartz deposits seems to. be but in its infancy. It looks to us today that the man who comes back here fifty years hence will find as much change for the better as we have found in our ease.” “Ir THE Cap Firs, wear it.” If you have boils, _pim ples, _ecrofula, salt rheum, dyspepsia, rheumatism or eatarrh, you are just the one that should take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, for this medicine cures all these troubles. irritating.

Returning to his home near the schoolhouse about six o’clock he andressed and went to bed again. His wife noticed the odor of the acid and getting up lita lamp. He Jeave him alone. She was convinced that he had taken the poison and sent for a doctor, but the latter could do nothing for the unfortunate man who was soon dead. Besides the ails: Dyer leaves a seven year old daughter. He was « brother of the late John Dyer, a well known constable of Colfax. The Dyer boys formerly lived at Graniteville in this county.
