THE QUEEN’S SPEECH.

Lonpsy, Jan 30.—The Quaeen’s epeech atthe reassembling of Poriamept this afternoon will be colorless. There will be a short reference to war, chiefly coufinsd to regrets at the terrible blood sed and gacoimn ums; for the men who hav- laid down their lives for their country. The whole proclamation wil! indicate that there is not the slightest idea of giving up the war until Greet Britain’s end shall be gained.

Tae speech will say that Great Britain’s r: lations with all foreign states are very friendly and will express great pleasure snd gratification at the patriotiem sbowa by the colonies at this critical period, in sending troops to South Africa and at tLe pa'riotism existing in the Empire gener- a'ly.

[t will also express gratificatisn at the off:r3 of troaxp3 from the Inlian native chiefs and will allude to the eatisfactory completion of treaty relations in respect to Samoa.

Kruger’s Complaint

Loxpon, Jan. 29.—A letter from Pre- toria gives the text_of a complaint which President Kruger made to President Steyn regarding the wantef co-operation on the part of the Free Statere at Modder River, and also President Steyn’s cddress to the Free Stater:. Mr. Kruger said he learned w.th regret that “only about 1,000 men of the Free State fought in the Just battle, and that many cthers remained in their camps, whiletheir brothers resisted and even defeated their enemy.” These state- meuts appear to give confirmation te the

ABANDONMENT JF SPION KOP

A Boer Account.

Boer Heavguarrers, Modder Spruit, Upper Tugela, January 24h. midmight, | via Lorenz» Marques, January 25.—Some Vryheid burghers from the outposts on (he highest bills of the Spien Kop group rushed into the laager eayieg that the Kop was lost andthe Knoglish had taken it.

Reinforcements were ordered up, but noth- ing could be done for some time, the bill | beiog enveloped in thick mist. At dawn | the Heidleberg and Carolina contingents, supplemented from other com mandos, began the ascent of the bill. Three spure, precipitous projections, faced the Boer positions. Up these the advaace was mad2, Tae horses were left under the first terrace of rocks. Scaling the eteep the Boers found that the English had improved the opportuaity and entrenched beavily. Between the lines of treacbes was an open veld:, which bad to be rushed under a heavy fire not | only from rifles but of lyddite and schrap- ne! from field guns.

Three forces sscended the toree spurs eo-ord'nately, uad-r cover of fi e from the Free Siate krupps, a creusot and’a big | maxim. The English tried i> rush the Boers with the bayonet ba: their isfaatry went dowo before the Boer rifla fire as be-

fore a ecythe. The Boer iovesting | party advanced step by step until twoin the afternoon when a white flag went up and 150 men ino the front

trenches surrendered, being sent as prison- ers to the head laager. The Boer advance continued on the two kopjes east of Spion Kop. Many Boers were shot but eo num- erous were the burgsere toat the gaps filled ,surematicaily Toward twilight they reoch-d the summit of the second kopje, but did not get further, The British Maxims belehed flame, but a wal! of fire from the mausers held the Eaglish back. Their centre under the pressure gradually gave away and broke, abandon- ing the position. The prisosers speak highly ef the burghers who, despisirg cover, stood against the +ky | ne edyes: f the summit ts shoot the Dublin Fusier , sbeltered ia the trenches. Firing con

ESTEEMED EXCHANGES

London Advertiser: The action of a few muoicipal councils ic the United States ia passing pro-Boer re-wlations, is another sign that the bighest iateiligence of the pubiic is on the Britith side, Mupic‘p«] councils over there usually buck against the highest intelligence.

A DOCTOR TALKS.

EXPLAINS WHY DODD'S KIONEY Pil.LS OURE MORE THAN LOCAL

KIONEY DISEASE.

Syplanation.

HALIFAX, N. S. Jan. 29 —One of the most up-to-date and advanced physicians of thss city, in a conve:ga ion with a press repre- sentative the other day, explained seme inter- esting points in relation to the marvellous cures Dodd’s Kidney Pills are making in this province.

**The great point is,” said he, ‘that Dodd’s Kidney Pills are an unapproachable medicine for the Kidneys. They are directly on those organs and eorrect whatever is wrong with them.”

“Yes, but Dodd’s Kidney Pills are making cures of diseases like Rheumatism. How does Rheumatism have any connection with the Kidneys ?”

**Well, that is easily explained,” said the doctor. ‘‘Rheumatism is uric .acid in the ood. Uric acid is left in the blood. by reasou of poor filtering on the part of the kid-

neys. Thev should stan all impurities like $ uric acid out ofthe system. Ifthey don’t something is wrong. Dodd’s Kidney Pills procure right to the spot and right that wrong.”

‘*And the uric acid is then stained out of the system ?”

** Exvectly. You see how naturally the cure is effected. The kidneys are the seat of the trouble, and itis no use treating the part where the uric acid happens to lodge. Take

the case of William A. Brown, Boiestown; reported a short while ago. He had Sciatica and Lumbigo. Both of these complaints are bnt local forms of Rheumatism. Sciatica is situated in the thigh ; Lumbago in the back. But as in all Rheumatism the cause lies in the kidneys, Brown felt relief, as he asserts, on the first box. And on the third box of Dodd’s Kidney Pilis he was cured. Now, how long would it have taken Mr. William Brown to have driven the uric acid out of his system by

externally? Not in a thousand years,” said the doctor, answering his owu question.
