Britons Moving Steadily Towards tlic Ooal of the Present Campaign.

THE ZAND IS CROSSED

IIutt on a ml French Moving Continually On tlic Track ol" the Departing' IJuers.

oliarj) Skirmishes Are of Daily currence, ami the Boers Are Not Panicky.

Thaba N'f'lm. May 10.—The Boers have moved their headquarters in this district from Ladybraud to Clocolan. They occupy .strong positions at Negathlings Nek. The British, including Gen. Brabant, are scattered anions a number of strategical points securing the country south from Wimlberg to Lady brand.

Accra, Gold Coast, May 10.—A rumor Is current here that Kumassi has fullen and it is believed that the Akims, Kwhus and Knornsas are secretly joining the insurgents.

The wires are down to Prahusu.

Maseru, May 10.—The Free Staters are moving in small parties with their herds from Ficksburg to Bethlehem, on their way to Ilarrismlth or the Yual.

Cape Town, May 10.—It Is reported that Gen. Buller is advancing on the Biggarsberg and that the Boers are withdrawing.

London, May 10.—Gen. Ilutton's mounted Infantry brigade, including the Canadians, with a part of Gen. French's cavalry, crossed the Zand river Tuesday and began to work its way cautiously along the railway northward in the track of the retiring Boers. About 8,000 horsemen were probably engaged in this advance.

Gen. I-Iutton, before he was joined by a part of Gen. French's force, had a sharp light. This was on Monday when he reached the river and saw the Boer convoy on the other side and pressed forward, intending to cross and capture them. The Boers, how ever, opened fire with from eight to 10 guns, forded the river above smd below, seemingly In thousands, and sought to envelope the British. Gen. Iiutton fell back several miles, the Boers following until other British cavalry reinforced I-Iutton. During the night the Boers retreated, not further contesting the crossing.

Lord Roberts, according to one correspondent, left Sinaldeel Tuesday to consult one of the Ilainiltons, 15 miles distant. The Boer attack on Gen. Hutton does not indicate any such panicky conditions as have been alleged to exist among them. Nevertheless tlie British advance rolls on steadily. Gen. Broauwood and Gen. Bruce Hamilton have penetrated 15 miles beyond Winburg.

According to Boer advices sharp skirmishes are of daily occurence and there was a brisk rule engagement outside AN liiburg oil Saturday. From Boer sources conies also the report that in a skirmish outside Mafeking May 5, Col. Baden-roweil was siightlv worsted.

There was an interesting contest on for the nomination for governer. The three candidates for nomination were Richard Yates, son of the "war governor" of Illinois Elbridge Ilaneey, Orin N. Carter and Walter Reeves. The contest was determined in the fourth ballot by the nomination of Yates, who received 071 of the votes of the convention. The ticket la as follows:

Governor—Richard Yates of Morgan county. Lieutenant Governor—W. A. Northcott of Greenville.

Secretary of State—James A. Rose of Pope county. Auditor—James S. McCollough Champaign.

Trustees of the University of Illinois—S. A. Bullard, Springfield Alex McLean, McDonougli county Miss Carrie Thomas Alexander, Belleville.

Senator Culloin said regarding the state convention and its work: "It was a splendid convention. It \sas representative of the people, as much eo as any convention can be. Its work will prove very satisfactory to the Republican party and to the people of the state. In my judgment Its nominees will be elected without much question. We will carry the state by a good majority this fall. Our nominee for governor 1s a splendid man whom I have known from his youth. lie is a good speaker and will make an effective campaign. He is an honest, capable man. and will make a good governer. The other candidates are well known, especially those already in the offices for which they are renominated, for everybody knows how faithfully they have discharged their duties.

Will NTot Have to Kneel.

Chicago, May 10.—Kneeling as tlie' attitude in prayer lias ceased to be. an exaction in the Methodist clnireh. The book of discipline recognizes the bending of the knee, but the city churches have gradually been drifting Into the more unconventional bowing of the head. The custom of Wesley prevails for the most part only in the counhead. The custom of Wesley prevails lor the most part only in the country. Delegate Tindall of Nebraska is a believer the devout kneeling form and yesterday sought to correct the tendency ol tlie latter day Methodists In departing from the ancient custom by introducing a resolution in the general conference emphazing the direction in ihe discipline. The conference refused to declare "we are as much sis ever in favor of observing the kneeling attitude. Tlie eltectivc argument was presented by a cit.\ minister who said: "We would have Io rebuild our churches. Pew space is too contracted to permit of kneeling."

The Nebraska preacher rose to urge adoption of his views nut the conference clamored far a vote and the more easv leaning of the body toward the back of the pew in front was approved.
