This hora> is worth going further than Brighton to see. It knows |as many steps as a dancing master, and seems to take an artistic delight | in every one of them. As a last surprise it acknowledges the storm of ap- | plause, which always rewards its performance, by bowing repeatedly. The battle scenes come in the second half of the exhibition, The first is a vivid representation of the Battle of Colenso, he British are seen ade vancing, and almost instantly the naval guns are brought into action, The Boers open a terrific fire as Lang's and Hunt's guns dash up tn support. The Imperial Lighthorse next sweeps upon the scene {n a splendid chargo, | but the Boers stand their ground and finally capture the guns. By this time you are straining your eyes to see through smoke, and have attuned your nerves to the crack of the Munusers, the ripping of Maxims and the booming of heavy guns. The horses form an immensely interesting part of the spectacle, They behave splendidly and fall down, roll over and “play dead” with the best of the actors, One animal, pretending to be wounded, limps off the field, Another bends over its supposedly dead master and rubs his face against this. There are hundreds of other little scenes admirably acted. It is the second tableau, the Battle of Paardeburg, that brings Gen. Piet Cronje into striking prominence, ' The Boers, working in the trenches, take to cover when the British bugles are heard, and are eoon surrounded, A pitiless fire pours upon them, and a hand-to-hand fight, with the High- jand Brigade in frenzied action, ensues, Your sympathy goes out to the desperate Afrikanders when the explosion of their ammunition wagon is followed by British cheers, A bugle stlences the guns, and a few minutes later the defeated commander walks grimly through a lane of British {n token of complete surrender. Then, trailing along after the victorious army, comes the sorry procession of Boer prisoners, men, women and children, some seemingly broken in body, all broken in spirit. ‘ Tho thrill is renewed in the third tableau, showing De Wet's flight rough a cordon of British troops, and you come away with your heart tnglin) Jest night; gone into quarantine until 00. to-morrow on account of smalipox; will | Earthquake’ Killed Mis fa) io 1 i Ww cases," NOETO, be released to-morrow ff ne ea: -hquako at Scutari, Albania, killed | 100 p:rsons and injured 20, The town {Washington Statue, 1 eT Cate pendged BUDAPRST, Hungary, June &—Tho| wey'to seanch for bodies “It te feared National Club has decided to erect here| that the list of casualties will be con- f@ statue in honor of Washington as siderably increased, There were two evidence of ite appreciation of the | *UR°6% inaitants are now in the notion of the oltisens of Cleveland, O.,| open, while the foreign consuls have been’ provided ta.
