The summer school would be a nucleus for a great educational gathering. The nearly co-operation of the Southern railway was assured. WHAT IS NECESSARY.

The subscription commute found the greatest enthusiasm in e gard to the Peabody Normal. Only two refusals were met, and the com mittee believes that if an attempt had been made to get a guaranty fund of $5,000 it would have been successful. President Nichols wired C. A. Bens coter, assistant general passenger agent of the Southern railway, at Chat tanooga : "Amount guaranteed over-subscribed und men still signing." The same telegram was sent to" M. V. Richards of the Southern at Wash ington, D. C.

The Boer attack 'Mi General Brabant's force at Wepe ner was resumed at dawn today. The enemy's attack on two or three sides ti Monday lasted until the afternoon, when firing ceased and it was believed the enemy had been beaten off, but it was announced this morning from Ali wal North that fighting had again be gun. l.'rabant's force, numbering 3000. holds positions in a rough country. It is not known what the numerical strength of the Boers Is, but whatever It may be, it is being rapidly aug mented. A body of 2000 Boers is march ing towards Sprlngfontein, between Wcpener and Springfontein. The de tonation of heavy guns was heard at Maseru Monday. Sir Godfrey Lagden, British resident commissioner of Pa sutoland. has left Maseru for the bor der. Events in the southeast portion of the Free State caused the Eighth di vision, which had been ordered to Fourteen Streams, to be dispatched to springfontein. The mysterious movements of troops at Bloemfontein is proceeding. News paper correspondents are not allowed to telegraph their destinations, and the presumption is that Roberts is making a disposition to cut off raids of Boer forces when they withdraw northward Horn the pursuing British columns. The reappearance of the Boers in the occupied country has caused a revival of warlike feeling among the Free Staters. Federal agents are busy get ting details of surrendered Boers, and. owing to British garrisons withdraw ing, the British residents are uneasy and have sent delegates to Springfon ti in to ask help. They were told that steps for their defense would be imme diately taken. The Boers are reported to have ven tured south of Biggarsberg and to be losting heavy guns four miles north f Klandslaagte. They are also said to have fortified the vicinity of Wes sols Nek. General Carrington has reached :''Bietown and is going to Beira, Por Kiguese East Africa, forthwith.
