commanding the 2nd Regt.C.M.R., dated Vryburg, May 14, the latter describes the work the regiment had to undergo since the fight at Hart’s River on March 31.Col.Evans says: “Every night when camp is made trenches have to be dug, and as mv regiment averaged trom 3 to 5 miles of front when the trenches were finished, and one has had his grub the men are only too glad to turn in for their well-earned rest.„ # If you could look in upon us you would observe a slight difference in our personal appearance fcafter two monttia’ steady work in the field.In all the drives and operations 1 the regiment always secures far more than its proper average of prisoners, cattle, etc., which are handed over to the proper autho rities.The regiment is very keen, likes hard work, and, considering everything its health is far above the standard.There is an armistic on at present, but we expect there will be some hard work before all the irreconcilables are taken.I see that we are to I have 2,0C0 more Canadians.It is | a great country to train in.Left by Former Russian Minister of the Interior.St.Petersburg, June Iff—An enumeration of the persons, including working people, expelled from various cities during the la«t two and a half years, or the administration of the late M.Sipia-guine, the minister of the interior, who was assassinated April 15, drawn up by the instructions of Von Pleliwe, who succeeded M.Sipiaguine, shows the enormous total of 60,000.M.Von Plehwe has decided to clean this slate so far as possible and permit the exiled people to return, as he does not desire to inherit the hatred inspired by M.Sipiaguine.It is said that Plehwe is inclined to adopt milder measures generally, but the reactionists, under the leadership of Count Sheremetieff, are still influential with the Czar.Pimples, Blotches and Skin Eruptions.How unsightly, sometimes even disgusting, and certainly very mortifying to the sufferer.They are merely an evidence of impure, poisoned

this station.This order must be rigidly enforced.’’ The cause for this imperious edict is said to be that during the rush of travel, which is particularly heavy in the month of June, the exits and entrances have been blocked by those anxious to exchange greetings and indulge in tender partings.The officials claim that the actual time lost each day in kissing at the Jersey City terminus is about

missing.On looking around he found that the show cases had been ransacked and a quantity of goods removed.On a further investigation he found that the shelves which contained the perfume had also been visited and a number of bottles containing expensive perfume stolen.The thieves evidently tried to pry open the till, and not being able to do so, it was removed from the store and it was found this morn-near the G.T.railway track.The contents, which amounted to about two dollars, were taken out and the papers aud other contents scattered around.The thieves effected an entrance through a window at the side of the building by prying open the catch.Chief Daviason went over the ground this morning and traced foot marks from the store to the track, the route evidently taken by the burglars after they had committed their depredation.Didn’t Marry For Money.The Boston man, who lately married a sickly rich young woman, is happy now, tor he got Dr.King’s New Life Pills, which restored her to
