SOME HEAVY FIRING REPORTED
And
a Number of Killed-Hostilities
to Have Actively Commenced.
Seem
SHOULD BE VIGOROUS WARFARE
So Says Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, the
Liberal Leader in the House of
Commons.
London, Oct. 18— Parliament opened
yesterday in extraordinary session to
consider the South African situation.
Large crowds waited in the precincts
of St. Stephen’s for the reassembling
of lords and heartily welcomed favor-
ites, especially Joseph Chamberlain,
secretary of state for the colonies. The
prince of Wales was largely cheered
while driving to the house of lords.
Within the house cordial receptions
marked the arrival of Mr. Balfour and
the other members of the government.
The house listened impatiently to the
usual orotest by Jas. Lowther against
the alleged interference of peers in
elections, but Mr. Chamberlain’s com-
ing put everybody into good humor and
was the signal for an immense outburst
of applause. He entered carrying a big
dispatch box.
The speaker read the speech.
In the speech her majecty v said in
part:
‘My Lords and Gentlemen: Within
a very brief period after the recent
prorogation I am compelled by events j
deeply affecting the interests of my
empire to recur to your advice and aid.
The state of affairs in South Africa
has made it expedient that my govern-
ment should he enabled to strengthen
the military forces of this country by
calling out the reserves. For this pur-
pose, the provisions of the law render
It necessary that parliament should be
called together.
“Except for the difficulties that have
been caused by the action of the fluth
African republic, the condition of the
world continues to be peaceful.
“Gentlemen of the house of com-
onsm: Measures" will be laid before
you for the purpose of providing the
expenditure which has been or may be
caused by events in South Africa. Es-
timates for the ensuing year will be
submitted to you in due course.”
Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman,
Liberal leader in the house of com-
mons, who followed Mr. Royds, said
parliament had been summoned to give
its approval to the early steps of war.
Never had the house met in circum-
stances more serious or amid condi-
tions engaging to a greater degree the
profound interest of the British peo-
ple. The demands made by the gov-
ernment of the South African republic
were such as to make it impossible for
the government of any self-respecting
country ever to take them into consid-
eration. (Loud cheering.)
“Actual hostilities have com-
menced,” said Sii Henry, “and an ac-
tive aggression has been committed
which it is the plain duty of our min
London, Oct. 18—A special dispatch
from Pretoria, dated Oct. 14, via Dela-
goa bay, says:
A cyclist dispatch was received was
received from Ottoshoep, near Mal-
mani, at 6 o’clock this evening assert-
ing that heavy firing had been in pro-
gress all day long north of Mafeking.
The British troops on board an arm-
ored train acted as a covering force to
military engineers engaged in repair-
ing kept up a continuous fire.
Conspicuous bravery was displayed
on both sides, but it soon became ap-
parent that the rifles of the burghers
were ineffective against an armored
train. The latter, however, was once
forced to retreat before a particularly
strong assault, but it soon returned,
accompanied by a British mounted
contingent, and the fighting was re-
newed fiercely. Fighting still contin-
ues, the Boers holding their position
well. A dozen Boers were killed or
wounded, but the British casualties can
not be assertained.
Heavy fining can be heard south of
Mafeking, where Gen. Cronje’s com-
mando is operating.
A corps of experienced continental
engineers, former officers, has left Pre-
toria for the southwest border, escort-
ed by a commando of picked Boer
shots. It is intended for large dyna-
miting operations.
A big engagement is expected short-
ly in the vicinity of Ladysmith. The
forces of Commandona Pievys are en-
camped on a mountain overlooking
Dundee, from which point they will be
able to observe the movements of the
British troops.
Blew Up Bridge.
Cape Town, Oct. 18—A dispatch from
Mafeking says that all was intact up
to Sunday night. At that time the
Boer artillery was being brought up,
but it had not been placed in position.
According to these advices the British
have blown up the Hcpetown railway
bridge over the Orange river, with a
view of checking the Boer advance
southward.
It is expected the Boers will cut off
Kimberley water supply; but the De-
Beers dam contains enough for a con-
siderable period.
Rejected Offer.
London, Oct. 18— According to dis-
patches from Pretoria the Transvaal
government received an offer from a
wealthy European recently to supply a
fleet of completely equipped torpedo
boats for the purpose of blowing up
the British transports on arriving in
South African waters. The offer was
curtly rejected. President Kruger even
refusing to consider it.
The originator of the scheme, who
was only in Pretoria twenty-four
hours, left immediately.
To Help British.
San Antonio, Tex., Oct. 18.—There
will probaly leave San Antonio within
the next two> or three days 300 men
bound for the seat of hostilities in the
Tranvaal, where they will take up
arms for the British cause.
Nearly all of the men who will start
from here have seen service in the first
British reserves and have been at one
time stationed i n the Transvaal or
have done police duty on the British
border of the Orange Free State and
the Boer territory. For several days a
British agent has been in the city
gathering men to volunteer their ser-
vices for the English cause. Each of
the men will receive a bounty of £100
The duties of the men who have vol-
unteered here will be as guides and
scouts. Nearly all of them know the
Boer territory and that of South Afri-
ca.
Upon their arrival at Cape Town
they will immediately proceed to the
seat of hostilities and join the British
army corps. The men will probably
leave here in a few days en
route to Galveston, from which port
they will sail for New York. At New
York the men will embark upon a
British transport sailing direct for
Cape Town, South Africa.
Among those who have volunteered
their services for the British cause is
Hector B. Smith, residing at 236 De-
vine street, who has seen service in
both the English and American armies.
His American army service was in
troop D, eighth cavalry, in which he
served five years. In the English fight-
ing branch he served for two years in
1884 and 1885. During almost this en-
tire time he did police duty on the
British border of the Orange Free
State. When seen by a reporter yes-
terday at his home, Mr. Smith had the
following to say:
‘I was for two years a member of
the Cape Town rifles. Most of our du-
ties were to police the British border
of the Orange Free States, I was a
member of a troop commanded by
Capt. Gilmore, and a fine man he was,
too. This was in the years 1884 and
1885, immediately after the Zulu wars
In South Africa. I think that by the
tme we get there the war between Eng-
land and the Boers will he ended. Out
of San Antonio and Bexar county there
will be at least 300 men to go. Oth-
ers will be picked up in various por-
tions of the state. The company will
not he organized in this country. The
organization will probably be made
when Cape Town is reached.”
Seed Done In Dallas Depot.
Dallas, Tex., Oct. 16.—George Lewis,
a negro, was shot and instantly killed
last night by John J. Reeves of
Mount Pleasant; Tex.
The killing occurred in the waiting
room of the Santa Fe-Cotton Belt de-
pot shortly after 10 o’clock in the pres-
ence of about 300 people. Three shots
were fired, two taking effect in the
body and the other passing through
the upper jaw.
Reeves accompanied by his wife and
niece and a party of townspeople,
came from their home at Mount
Pleasant yesterday at the fair. It was
their intention to return home last
night on a 10:30 train. Accordingly
they made their way to the depot and
found the waiting room crowded with
outgoing excursionists. After same de-
lay Mrs. Reeves secured a seat, and it
is alleged, was approached by Lewis,
who claimed she had appropriated his
position. She paid no attention to his
demands. He again approached and
attempted to eject her, in the mean-
time addressing to her insulting lan-
guage. Reeves coming up at this time
and seeing the negro’s actions and
hearing his words, drew his revolver
and fired three shots in rapid succes-
sion.

Knew a Thing or Two.
When a boy at school, the late Mr
Spurgeon took a prominent part i,t|
answering questions put to the class.
One cold day, however, the teachej
noticed that he was so very backwai
that he remained the whole time at th|
bottom of the class.
This went on for some time, and puz|
zled the teacher, until he noticed ths
the fire was near the bottom of thl
class. He immediately changed thj
class about, making the bottom at th!
top.
He then had the satisfaction of hear
ing all his questions fully answered bi
Spurgeon, and that young hopefi|
keeping the same seat, the only differ
ence being that he was at the top
the class instead of at the bottom.
Adopted Texas Flay.
Austin, Tex., Oct. 16.—At a mass-
meeting of the students of the Univer-
sity of Texas held Saturday afternoon
in the auditorium of the university,
Acting President Prather introduced
the following resolution:
“Resolved, by the faculty and stu-
dents of the University of Texas, in
massmeeting assembled, that we adopt
the Texas flag as the banner of the
University of Texas.”
This resolution was unanimously
and enthusiastically adopted. Presi-
dent Prather said:
“As the educational institution of
the state which draws its patronage
from all the people and from every
section of Texas, and which owes its
existence and perpetuation to the mu-
nificence of the fathers of the state,
there is a peculiar appropriateness to
this action of the university people.
For Abusing the Queen.
London, Oct. 18.—The Cork Constitu-
tion says that a few evenings ago Dr.
Charles Tanner, nationalist member of
parliament for the middle division of
Cork, was abusing the queen and the

Better Business.
Corsicana, Tex., Oct. 16—A banking
house in this city reports collections
unusually good this season and in evi-
dence of it cites the fact that since the
beginning of the fall season they have
collected umpatured obligations to the
amount of $90,000, the obligations be-
ing of the “on or before” class, and
they have been paid in advance of mar
turity by the obligations rather than
to continue paying interest. This evi
dence of prosperity is not the only one
in Navarro county, as all business men
here claim business to be better this
year than it has been for fifteen years
in the past.
Gnawed by Rats.

Love is of the opinion that the infant
was gnawed to death by the rats.
