Throughout the work the Boer general has but slight praise for Lord Itoberts and little more for Lord Kitchener. C5enerul Knox is almost the only British general who seems to have struck De Wet as a commander with real military genius. Small Amount*—A Sad Story of tempt to Prove an Alibi'.

Boston, Dec. 1.—The trial of Joseph Wilfred Blondln, charged with the murder of his .wife Margaret In April, 1001, which promises to be a notable criminal case because of the many curious circumstances involved, has opened in the superior criminal court of Suffolk county before Judges Stevens and Braley. The indications are that the trial will be protracted, as more than fifty witnesses have been summoned by the government, while a large number has been called for the defense.

President pro tem Frye was In the chair in the Senate chamber, while Speaker Henderson wielded the gavel in the House. Long before the hour set for the opening, the public galleries yere filled and the corridors surrounding them crowded. Qn the floor, however, there were many vacant seats on both sides. There were more vacancies in the House than In the Senate. Nearly all of the leaders were In attendance, but many of the others were content to remain away from the preliminaries. The constabulary in the Zambales province reports a repulsive incident of cruelty perpetrated by ladrones. Several columns of constabulary had been chasing the ladrones with the assistance of friendly natives. Five of the frlendlies straggled from the column and were captured by ladrones, who amputated the tongue and gouged out the eyes of one friendly and then sent him back to the constabulary. The fate of the other four is unknown. 42 North Main Street, to Eagle Hotel. 5 large rolls of toilet paper, 26° China cups and saucers, remarkable value for, a set..... 10?

The comparative Immunity of the Boers from harm De Wet constantly and most fervently attributes to the Interposition of God. "If any reader," he says, "is eager to know how It was I kept out of the enemy's hands, I can only answer, although I may not be understood, that I ascribe it to nothing else than that It was not God's will that I should fall into their hands. Let those who rejoice nt my miraculous escapes give all the praise to God."

Berlin, Dec. 1.—The British government is telegraphing to all the German ports inn king inquiries concerning a number of Boer gold bars worth $650,- 000 which, It is supposed, have been brought to this country from South Africa within the past fortnight. The bars are destined for former President Kruger and Dr. Leyds and, It is presumed, had been concealed In the northern Transvaal. Great Britain will endeavor to legally attach the gold if it can be located on the ground that she Is entitled to all the assets of the Transvaal because she has assumed responsibility for the debts of that country, Including the bondB issued prior to the war. Blondin and' his wife roomed at 43 Green street, this city, and the latter was last seen alive by the landlady, Mrs. Halltgan, on April 27, 1901.

Frequently he recounts cases of desertion and panic among his own men whrth his entreaties and sjamboking were all of no avail. De Wet pays a tribute to General Cronje for his bravery, but declares he lost at Paardeberg only on account of his fatal obstinacy to leave the laager, as he was advised to do by General Botha and by the writer himself. v Swooned Ht Parting. I.OUK and Vain Search. A Good Shape Deputy Sheriff Curtis called at the house to conduct her to his own home, half a mile distant, where it was believed she could be better guarded. Search was at once made for Blondin, and it was ascertained that he had left the city, and for months the officers were engaged In traveling through the eastern and middle states and Canada running down all sorts of alleged clews, only to be disappointed when they had found the suspect. During most of this time Blondin was quietly at work in a factory in White Plains. N. Y., and it was not until Feb. 25 of this year that he was arrested in New York, where he had gone from White Plains to make application for a fireman's license.

General Botha requested them to turn over this gold, but Dr. Leyds refused, averring that the money was to be used in upholding the Boer nationality In the futuiy.

Washington, Dec. 1.—To properly run the TJflited States government during the-flseal year ending June 30, 1904, It is estimated by the various departments that $589,189,112.30 will be required.

Granulated Sugar, 22 lbs for Blondin was brought to this city on March 16, and, a true bill for murder was returned against him by the grand Jury of Middlesex county, It being the belief at that time, that the murder had been committed in Chelmsford. As later developments tended to show that the murder was committed at the Green street lodging house the evidence was submitted to the Suffolk county grand Jury, which promptly returned an Indictment for murder.
