The total of those who Nave al- ready surrendered number 16,500 and the British are extending every possible kind- ness to the men who come in. The ap- pearance of General Dewet at the camp at Winburg was the signal for a great display of enthusiasm. When he arrived at the camp General Dewet was at once surrounded by thousands of Boer ‘men, women and children, who struggled and clamored to shake the hand of thelir hero. General Dewet mounted a table and de- livered an address. He warmly applaud- ed the stanch support that the women had Efiven the burghers during the war, which, e seid, had gmt]y encouraged the men in the field. Continuing, he recommended his hearers to be loy: ernment and said: Perhaps it is hard for you to hear this from . T fought until theré was no more hope of upholding our cause, and, however it may be, the time has now come to lay down our arms. As a Christian, God now demands that we be faith- ful to our new Government. Let us submit to Eis decision. Neither General Dewet nor Steyn, former President of the Orange Free Stare, was wounded during the war. Gen- eral Dewet has not seen his wife for two years. The repatriation committee, which has been formed to assist the Boers in return- ing to their farms, has a gigantic task before it. The concentration camps will be con- verted into su“ply depots to provide the returnlnfi burghers with the means to re- buiid and restock their farms. The wives and families of the Boers will, if desired, be inaintained at the expense of the Gov- ernment while the burghers are prepar- ing the farms for their reception. 0 thousand of the National Scouts, who fought upon the British side durin the war, will immediately be disband and each scout will be provided with a pony and enabled to return to his farm. , to the-new Gov- Strives for Another Bicycle Record. MINNEAPOLIS, June 15.—A. A. Hansen started at 4 o'clock this morning on his attempt to establish a 1000-mile motor bi- cycle record. The first hundred miles was made in 4 hours 27 minutes, the second 1n 4 hours 2 minutes and the third in 6 heurs 7 minutes. The slow time In the third was due to crowded boulevards. The 1000 miles will be made in about fifty-five hours. Hansen expects to accomplish the entire ride without taking any sleep. British Ship Falcon Goes Ashore.

TH HS 508 Well-Known Sacramen- tan and a Child Are Drowned. Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, June 15.—Frank De- witt, one of the three official court sten- ographers of this county, and his seven- year-old son, Perry, met their death by drowning in the Sacramento River this afternoon within a few feet of the water front of the city. Accompanied by, his young, sons, Perry and Harry, and his brother-in-law, Wil- liam Turner, Dewitt prepared to go on an excursion in his gasoline launch. They found at the outset that their supply of fuel was short, and it was decided* to proceed with the boat across the river to a point where it was thought more gas- oline could be procured. They met with disappointment, however, and started to recross the river to the Sacramento shore. The gasoine supply gradually dimin- jshed until, in midstream, the engine stopped altogether, and the boat began to arift in the direction of a barge moored near the Sacramento short. Dewitt called to a passing boatman to throw him a line and tow him into shore, but-before this cculd be done the boat was drawn close up to the barge. Dewitt and Turner arose i the launch and attempted to push away. but the current was strong, and carried their vessel back to the barge. In thelr efforts to free themselves from their perilous position they accidentally cap- sized the boat, and the launch and its four occupants were drawn underneath the barge. Turner and one of the boys, Harry, managed to extricate themselves and cry for help, but Dewitt and his son Perry remained neath the barge with the launch and were drowned. Harry Dewitt had seized the lunch basket when the dan- ger first .Hm:ed. and this act probably saved his_life, as the basket enabled him to keep afloat. Lines were thrown to him and Turner, and they were drawn ashore. 1t is thought that Dewitf, who was an ex- rt swimmer, was drowned by attempt- ng to rescue hisgson Perry from their common peril. Dewitt was extensively known in North- ern California as one of the finest court stenographers in the State. He leaves a wife, the sister of Winfield- J. Davis, a well-known stenographer. Dewitt was 32 ruu of age and was very popular. At a ate hour to-night the search for his body and that of his son was in progress. Epecfal Dispatch to The Call. RED BLUFF, June 15.—A robber, a pis- tol and a bucket were conspicuous fea- tures in the most daring hold-up that has occurred here in many years. It happen- ed last night about 12 o’clock, and several men have ever since been lamenting the loss of more than $200. The Grosdier saloon clock was ringing off the midnight hour when a man, pre- viously known in the saloon as Martin, stepped inside. He came from a rear en- trance and carried a bucket. Doc Bon- ham, the bartender, and four other men were in the place at the time and seated at a table, As he neared the table the newcomer raised a revolver and cautioned the five men not to move. Then he set the bucket on the table and gathered in all the coin in sight. The money amounted to $208, and no protest was made by those who were losing it. ‘Warning the men not to follow, the rob- ber backed out of the rear: door, crossed an alley and went through the Tremont barn to Washington street, there mounted a bicycle and rode away th the bucket of coin. In endeavoring to' reach Corning road he struck a blind street in the lower end of town and was obliged to retrace several blocks. The robber is about six feet tall, has a three weeks' growth of red beard, and ‘weighs pl’oblhl‘Vl 1% pounds. He is about 40 years old. e had lost $25 in a card game a few days before. The bucket tak- en by the robber was found in a field 4 {r.flde south of town on the Corning road o-day. - i Officers just returned lost the trail of the robber at Thomas Creek, eighteen miles south of here. They have learned that Martin served a three years’ sentence in the State prison for robbing a railroad car at Redding, and was \known there as “Red Willlams.” !
