LOS ANGELES, Nov. 2—One of the most remarkable campaign tours which has ever been made was that of Teddy's Terrors, a political organization of this city, which to-day chartered a special train and made a flying trip over the San- ta Fe's Kkite-shaped track, traveling | about 150 miles and stopping at thirty- | three towns along the route. In each of the towns speeches were made by mem- bhers of the organization and music was supplied by a brass band and a male quartet. The train left Los Angeles at 8 o'clock this morning and did not return until midnight. It was composed of two pas- senger coaches and a baggage car and carried ninety Rough Riders, under th= command of Captain J. W. F. Diss. Tho baggage car was filled with refreshments and extra ammunition. There were a ures of the trip. At Lamanda Park the train was “‘held up” by members of the Americus Club of Pasadena, who had donned black masks for the occasion. There was a hot exchange of blank cartridges, the sound of which attracted a large crowd to the train. At Santa_Anita the Terrors were met by the school children of the village, who had walked more than a mile to greet them. The children presented a bouquet to Captain Diss, Great enthusiasm was shown all along the route, a large number of women be- ing present at each of the stations, and everywhere cheers were given for Mec- Kinley, Roosevelt and prosperity.

St TLONDON, Nov. 2.—The South African situation s improving and Lord Roberts will shortly return to England with a majority of his staff. Arrangements are being made In Cape Town to send the batch of refugees back to Johannesburg, and accommodation Is being provided at Bloemfontein for a garrison of 7000, Nevertheless the activity of the Boers continues, On October 26 a commando of 300 captured a garrison of thirty men at Reddersburg, but afterward released them. Trains from the south to Pretoria are attacked by the Boers almost daily. On October 24 the burghers occupied Kof- feyfontein. On the other hand, General Knox has inflicted a reverse on General Dewet's forces near Parrls, capturing two guns, one of them a weapon lost by the Brit- ieh in the Sannas post affair. The daily tale of British casualties is heavy. During the month of October the British lost 167 killed in action, including fifteen officers, seventy-one of dled of wounds, 367 of disease, twenty-two of accidents and ninety-seven captured or missing, a total almost equal to the monthly average for the duration of the war. The Daily Express publishes a sensa- tional statement that the Boer revival is more_serfous than has hitherto been be- Heved, and that in consequence Lord Rob- erts' return 1s Iikely to be still furthes postponed. It says, also, that no con- siderable party of troops will return be- fore January or February, while the regimental drafts from England will con- tinue and 5000 horses will be sent out. The paper definitely declares that the Boers are well armed and abundantly supplied with ammunition, and that the campaign is likely to last another six months. In the best informed quarters, however, 1t 1s asserted that there is no ground for the pessimism of the Daily Express. JAMES TURNER IN THE TOILS. | Notorious Criminal Arrested for Highway Robbery.
