Lord Roberts, in submitting Gen. Buller’s dispatches de: bing the Spion Kop and other operations from Jan. 17 to Jan. 24, deals severely with Gen. Warren, and even en. Buller comes in for severe criticism. ‘Thorny- eroft’s withdrawal from Spion kop Lord Roberts characterizes as wholly inexcusable. his di tch, written Feb. 13. has been in the hands of the war oflice tive weeks.

London, April 18. — The war office has received the following dispateh from Lord Roberts, dated Bloemfon- tein, Tuesday: “Our force at Wepener is still surrounded, but it is reported that the enemy are attacking in a very half-hearted manner and are anxious about their communications, hearing that forces are approaching Wepener from two directions — one under Gen. Rundle via Reddersburg, and another under. Gen. Brabant with Gen. Hart's brigade in support. via Rouxville. On the reoccupation of Rouxville April 14 the few Boers there retired and Gen. Brabant made some unimportant ar- rests. Violent storms of rain have somewhat interfered with the mareh of these columns, but it is hoped they will soon be able to make their presence decidedly felt.

When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear- ng, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucus surfaces. ‘We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case | of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure.
