On Columbias and Ramblers,
The "Australia" having brought us a big shipment.
For heavy men those xtra stout Ramblers fitted
with 2-inch tires are just the thing For light men
the Model 49 Cohmbia is the proper thing.
These interested in 30-inch Wheels can be pleased
at our store. We have teen selling them for two
months past and they are alright.
Chainless Columbias are so good that all we have
on thi3 Australia are sold already. The factory is
turning out SCO per day and can rot catch up with
back orders so we can not get all we order each steamer.
Banner Lamps, the old stand by $3 lamp, ano
ther 100 of them by the Australia, so th-re will be
more light than ever now

Lieutenant Kohler. with two men. ad
vanced to meet it. This afternoon they
again showed a white flag, and acnin
two officers and an interpreter advanc
ed. When the Americana were within
about 200 yards of the rebel the latter
dragged rifles from behind thir harks
and opened fire upon :hem. but for
tunately without effect.
Hawthorne's battery fired two shell,
killing several of the enemy.
In accordance with instructions :o
the land ana naval force a general
order was Issued to-day directing thv
United States troops to give particular
attention to the specific duty of fur
nishing fun protection to the lives and
property of all German. Austrian.
Dutch, Italian and Portuguese resi

At 3 o'clock this afternoon the tem
perature was St degrees Fahrenheit,
and the heat Is intense, especially on
the lines, where twenty-fivemeu wore
temporarily prostrated during the day.
A detachment of General Hale's arid
General Wlieaton's brigades was en
gaged for two hours this morning
clearing the country in front of their
lines on both sides of the river, the
enemy concentrating with the apparent
purpose of cutting off the garrison at
the -water works.
The rebels holted at the first sign of
the advance, but they separated Into
small bodies whenever the cover af
forded opportunities and kept up a run
ning fire. By a series of rapid ad
vances, followed .by flank movements,
the enemy was completely routed as
far out as Guadalope on the right and
almost to Mariquinl on the left. The
casualties reported are Captain O'Brien
of Company F, First Wyoming Volun
teers, and two men slightly wounded
The rebel Joss was heavy.
MANY LIVES LOST.
NEW YORK. March 5 A Sun
cable from Toulon says: Great
loss of life and property was
occasioned by an explosion in
the naval magazine No. 1 a. La
Goubran. between Ia Seyne ana
Toulon, at 2:30 o'clock this
morning. By noon thirty-two
bodies had been recovered from
the debris of wrecked bui.rt.ngs
in the village and by 3 o'clock
this number had been swelled
to sixty. Some of the victims
are supposed to have been
blown to atoms, while others
are believed to have been car
ried into the sea and drowned.
The wounded numbered 110. and
the injuries of many of these
are serious. The magazine con
tained 50.000 kilos of black
powder.

BRITISH SHIPS AS TRANSIORTS.
May Bid for Carrying Freight to Ma
nila. SEATTLE. Wash.. March 7. A
Times special from Washington quoted
Col. Bird of the Transportation Bureau
of the War Department as follows:
"We are asking for bids for 7000 tons
of freight now stored at San Francisco.
If British shipowners offer the cheap
est rate they will get the contract for
transporting this freight to Manila. If
they bid the same as American owners,
the American ships will be given the
preference."
KIPLING CONVALESCING.
NEW YORK, March 7. Mr. Double
day tonight reported both Rudyard
Kipling and his little daughter Elsie
to be slowly but surely convalescing.
Mr. Kipling has not yet been informed
of the death of his other child and he
will not be told about it until he is
practically well. She was his favorite
and the physicians dread the possibil
ity of a relapse should he learn of her
death in any manner. Some of the
more important cablegrams and mes
sages are daiily read to Mr. Kipling,
and occasionally he is allowed to read
i-em himself. Every such message is
carefully censored, however, to prevent
the father from reading even an allu
sion to his loss. Great quantities of
flowers continue to be sent to the Gre
noble Hotel by friends of the Kip.ing.
THE LATEST.
L. B. Kerr's latest importation of
goods, just received per S. S. Austra
lia, and direct from the leading man
ufacturers of Europe, comprise 120
cases of dry goods, dres3 goods, lac.,
embroideries and artistic millinery. All
to be sold at prices that will astonish
you.
