Owing, . however, to the admirable conduct of the troops the enemy were unable to prevent us reaching our destination The brunt of the fighting fell on Gen Kelly Kenney's division, two battal ions of which the Welsh Essex turned the Boers out of two strong positions at the point of the bayonet" HELD STRONG POSITIONS.

At Dreifonteio, about eight mites ?oath of Abraham's kraal, the B>er* were found posted in considerable strength on the ridges connecting sev? eral kopjes, where they bad moanted gens. The action began at 8 io the morning with an artillery dael. Geo French7. cavalry aod Gen Porter's brigade 6up ported oar gaos. Tbe Boer artillery was accurately bandied, and the British cavalry found the task harder than thev had expected. Geo Broadwood, with dogged perse veranee, moved alcogetber six miles southward, tryiog to hod a means to get arouod, but the Boers followed bebind rising grounds and even at tempted to ouflaok him Meanwhile, the Sixth division cf infantry, advancing on the Boer left slowly forced the enemy to retire Had the iofaotry been able to move faster the Boers would have bees enveloped.

Washington, March 12 -There ie reason to believe that the United States government is using its good offices to restore peace .between Great britain and the South African -epublics Tilia has not taken the shape of a proffer of mediation. That would be distinctly repugnant to Great Britain and, according to the rule of international law which has, without exception, governed the state department in the past, could not be volunteered by us until it was known to be acceptable to both parties to the war But the United States might very properly serve as an intermediary to transmit an appeal for peace a?d the terms upon which peace can be secured. The United States has suc? cessfully served in this capacity in the past notably in the determination of the China-Japanese war, and its good offices in this line are BOW be iog extended, if this belief is well founded, then Adelbert Uay, United States consol at Pretoria, has been the instrument for transmitting to the British government, through the double intervention of the depart* ruent of State, and Ambassador Cboate an application from Presidents Kruger and Steyn, to be informed as to the term upon which the war can be ended The fact io the case will be fully developed in a day or two. Lord Pauncefote called at the State department late in the afternoon and spent half an boar with Secretary Hay If he was made acquainted with the tenor of any communica? tions relative to peace that may have come from Pretoria yesterday he gave no sign of the fact The officials of the department also main tamed a reserve respecting this sub ject that was impenetrable, and ali that could be obtained from them was an injunction to await the developments of the next 24 hours It is surmised from this that the de? partment is restrained from discuss? ing the subject by a regard for the diplomatic procedure, especially be cause of the requirement that the j person to whom a note is addressed should be permitted to receive it before its substance is made public In euch cases, presuming that Mr Cboate received a note only today, it is probable that be would not be able to inform the State department that he had delivered it to Lord Salisbury before tomorrow.

Mr Sheriff, but it ia against Gov Taylor's orders to let any one into the build ing today " Sheriff Suter then held a consulta tion with County Attorney Pols grove, Commonwealth Attorney Franklin and other officials Mean time the police force had been doubled and a detail guarded each of the entrances to the State house grounds to prevent tbe men wanted from escaping At the conference between the officials it was decided that the sheriff should summon a large reserve force of deputies, to be called into use in the event it was decided to attempt to enter the building by force to make the arrests and in pursuance of th's, the sheriff swore in 50 men, "who were stationed in the neighborhood of the sheriff's office during the afternoon Sheriff Suter made another attempt to get an audience with Gov Taylor this afternoon, but was unsuccessful The streets were fairly blocked with people in the vicinity of the State house, but there was no open demon stration, though it was evident that the populace was on the side of the civil authorities At 3 o'clock Sheriff Suter, having failed to gel any sort of understanding with the military authorities as to the arrest of the parties, submitted the question to Democratic Gov Beckham to de cide to what extent the civil officers should go to gain admittance to the building for the purpose of making the arrests It is said late tonight that Demo eratic Gov Beckham will not give an answer to Sheriff Suter s request for instructions til! next week and since the escape of Powers and Davis he may decide that the changed condi tion? of affairs does not necessitate the giving of instructions on his part The Triplett resolution author izing the expenditure of $100,000 in arming and equipping a State guard under Gov Beckham and Adjt Gen Castleman, will come up in the boose Tuesday, and it is said that early this afternoon-Gov Bockhara determined to wait until after the passage of the measure, when, if men wanted by civil officers were still barricaded in the State house, he would call on Adjt Gen Castleman and authorize him to muster in enough men to take the prisoners Since the escape of Powers and Davis, however, the con? ditions have changed, and what will be done now depends altogether upon their future movements The events of today served to show very forci bly that the State guard as at present organized does not unanimously recognize Taylor as governor. Lieut Sparks refused to muster in the Lon don company today in response to a telegram from Gov Taylor ordering him to bring the company here, and thc- Lexington companies also refus ed. Maj Robert Kennedy of one of the Lexington companies, came here tonight and personally tendered to Gov Beckham the services of the Third battalion of the Second reg-i ' ment He also stated that 50 men are tonight guarding the Company'? armory and will recognize oniy Beckham a3 governor.

March 10 -Almost I without warning the stou? centre of ex-iteiLcnt io the present gubematorial struggle shifted to Lexiogtoo tonight and until a late hoar the town wis in an uproar. Tbe 8 40 Chesapeake and Ohio train from Frankfort brought with it io one car to themselves Secretary of State Caleb Powers, Capt John Davis, capitol square policeman, and Lieut F. R Peake, of Covington Intelligence had preceded them that they were oo their way to Lexington aod were trying to make their escape. When the trai . pulled ioro the depot the entire polio force of the city under sheriff John ' McD Rose and Sheriff Heory B ?s worth, with a large force of depotie-. boarded the train Oo entering tb coach tho officers found thar it contr/io'-d about 25 soldiers with Powers ano Davis, tbe soldiers being undrr coai mand of Lieut Peake. Lieut Peak.1 sprang to his feet at once and com manded the soldiers to clear the car in an instant 20 revolvers were draw by the officers and they were all level d at Peake, who gamely tried to pul! hi owo revolver, but. as be drew it from the scabbord, a policeman smashed him across the hand with his dub and tbos prevented wbat would have undoubtedly resulted in a tragedy. The sheriff commanded the conductor to out off the car The conductor remonstrated, stated that the train carried United States mail, and the demand was not then pressed. A local attorney recognized Powers and also pointed out Davis. They were seized and hurried off to jail. As the procession swept toward the jai i some people started the report that there was to be a lynching, and soon the streets were packed with people, an enormous crowd gathering about the the jail Davis, Powers and Peake were harried to the upper cells, but Peake was later released on bond on a common warrant oo the charge of resisting arrest Tbe Associated Press correspondent saw Lieut Peake io compaoy with his attoroey. Bat he refused absolutely to say a word The correspondeot sought interviews with Powers and Davis, bu' the nfficers refused to permit anyone ti see them at. that time. Davis and Powers were both dis guised Both wore the regular soldier uniform complete,PVCD as to the leggin* Davis had shaved off his moustache aod goatee He bad $125 in money oo his person and a revolver. There was found on Powers ?1,300. Io tbs inside poelret of each- mao was found a pardon from Gov W. S. Taylor, duly signed aod sealed. Attorney W. G Dunlap. Postmaster F. C. Eikio and Attorney R. C Stol! called on Seoretary of State Powers later and to the Associated Press cor respoodeot they stated that Powers told Dunlap substantially that he was ? u fleeing from arrest. He was simply getting away from Frankfort to avoia lying in jail as Whittier bad done ; that he bad done nothing to fear arrest, as he was not guilty of thc charge, and that he was going to Barboursviiie, iv. . he Eleventh congressional district where Taylor's jurisdiction wa3 full\ recognized. Capt Davis bad tittle to say to them except that he thought hf had made a mistake in leaving home ; that he bad nothing to fear from a trial Neither explained his disguise Excitement ia Kentucky has Somewhat Subsided Frankfort, Ky., March 12-Thc situation in Frankfort has radically im oroved and public excitement has sub sided Nevertheless great uneasiness still exists, especially among Repabli cans. More arrests io connection with the assassination are rumored, the names including Taylor, Republican legislators, Acjt GJU Collier aod others The Republicans assent they will re? sist such arrests to the last, and the consequences of an attempt to arrest Taylor cannot be forecasted. Taylor probably will remain here instead of going to London, as urged After a oouference betw2eo Gov Beckham Mayor Debooev, of Frankfort and Sheriff Suter, 25 extra duputy s h e r i ff and 50 speoial policemen were sworn in The legislative expires tomorrow.

Why does a man sometimes bec violently insane, often a dangei raving lunatic? Such questions as these have pus our immediate fathers, who have 1 ly ever satisfactorily explained t away or indeed thrown much reli light, upon them. The human bra composed of cells, and each cell simple bit of nerve substance, ? one end of which, like an octo spring a number of tentacles, w from another part arises an arm ferent from them and of great len The long arm is intended for tr mitting impressions from one por of the brain system to another, it ing made to touch the tentacles short arms of the next one to it. latter in its turn effecting contact \ a third cell, and so on. Thus a message is conveyed and mind gets its news. The entire bi is made up of these cells, whose n ber is legion and whose full stree is grouped in systems, these syst< in turn being arranged in commi ties, the communities In clusters : finally the clusters in constellath by which divisions they are knowi physiologists. So long as the mind is in a heal condition each little cell, or brain topus. attends to its business faith ly and gives no trouble, hut as n generally is an animal who usually fuses to live the life spanned out nature nnd adopts instead the life 1 down by the modern artificial proe of living, instituted forsooth by c lization. mental disturbances frequc ly arise through the brain becom .abused in various ways,- from ov work and alcohol principally. Your octopuslike brain cell is a 1 ing little thing, and it can endure great deal of abuse from 3-ou. but you should go a little too far it reb and refuses to work any longer breaking contact with its compani colls, which it can do by withdrawi its long arm and getting itself out circuit. But this rebellion is conclu ed by whole groups of cells acting gether in full harmony. Now. the object of this "strike*' simply to avoid overwork, for ea tiny cell has stored within its mini; space only a certain amount of ener? but if you put on the high pressu this is easily consumed by the opei tion of the brain, and the organis breaks down from exhaustion. Xo take the first of the problems ju stated. When a person takes too mu< to drink, the cells in those patches the brain that are responsible for tl conduct of muscular movement h come affected and the mau staggers. When the dose is very large, tl cells, which, although stupefied, hai tried to keep their master on his leg now cease working, and the man sleei like one dead. Finally, if more tba enough of alcoholic drink be take; the effect on the cells is to paralyj them, and the unfortuuate man dies. There is some relation between e: traordinary activity of the mind an insanity. Geniuses are apt to exhib symptoms of mental alienation, an< singular to relate, their children ar usually inferior to those of av?ras men. For instance, not to go out of Eni land for example. Cromwell was hypochondraic and had visions. Dca Swift inherited insanity aud was bin; self not a little mad. Shelley wa-s eal! ed by his friends "Mad Shelley. Charles Lamb went crazy. Johnso; was another hypochondriac. Coleridg was a morbid maniac. Milton was of ; morbid turn of mind, nearly approach ing insanity (modern ideas of hade are largely formed on the descriptioi evolved by his diseased imagination) and Byron said he was visited b; ghosts. This mental alienation occurring ii the foregoing cases shows that cer tain specific groups of bro in cells hav< come under the baneful influence 01 i the guiding spirit called talent o] genius, which has used up all the en ergy stored in each cell and each grout of colls, to the detriment of the whole with the result that their ceasing wort has brought about various types ol insanity as depicted or. to phrase it more softly, induced disturbance ot I the mental equilibrium. The remaining problem is absent? mindedness. This is produced by a temporary disjunction of certain groups of cells. ,\ man boco mes se absorbed in his study of som?? partie j ular subject am! lends his whole ! mimi iv> thought thal the hard thiuk : ing disorganizes tho groups <t cells, j employed i:? the process ot' reflection^ ' their tentacles bei nu turned all om j way. ro tl ie detriment ..{' menta] ac } rion generally, and so the niau with ' the tentacles .?f his brain cells turned j in the one direction passes along thc j street-; lost to ::!! observation or mental inception :\v><\ ?!.>e^ .-?? manner of qrteer ; things because he ?< not ?;?msc:otjs ot : what he is dom : I'oars, ?n's Maga i zinc.

HE WASHED DISHES. The Hard Job One Boy Had All the Way to Europe. The girls who have complained in various keys because they had dishes to wash may be glad to hear of a young man who can look at the mat? ter through their eyes, perhaps more so. He had shipped as "boy" on a cat? tle steamer for Europe because be wanted to save as much as possible on his transportation, and-but the rest of the story sounds better in bis own words: "About 4:30 in the morning I was awakened and told to go to work. 1; hastily dressed, for the first and last time on board, for during the rest of the voyage 1 took care not to undress. It seemed scarcely worth while. I ar? rived on deck and found the steward waiting for me. He showed me into the pantry, introduced me to 'Pants/ as the pantryman was called, and told me that my chief duty during tbe voy? age would be to wash dishes. "There was already a large pile of. dirty dishes waiting to be washed, and' 1 rolled up my sleeves, fixed the bot water and began to work. I had these almost done when another and larger lot was brought in from the dining room. This proved to be the daily pro? gramme. 1 no sooner had one pile washed than others were brought in, and 1 was never done. 1 don't think I ever <;aw so many dishes before in! my life, and 1 hope 1 never shall again.' There were CO passengers aboard be? sides the cattlemen, and six meals waco served each day. From the dishes that came out to be washed, 1 think that each passenger must have used at least six plates at a meal." Detroit Free Press.
