ROSSLAND EVENING RECORD, DECEMBER 7, 1899.

A FORTU
br. and Mire. Ken
covering From Thetr Injuries.

Dr, and Mrs. Kenning, who were
injured in a runaway last evening,
are much improved today. Mrs.
Kenning was badly bruised and it
was thought the doctor had sustained
internal injuries. Two broken ribs
were, fortunately, the extent of the
injuries. .

Dr. and Mrs. Kenning had
gone out for their usual afternoon
drive and when coming down First
avenue the horse was frightened by
dogs and bolted down the street.
At the Washington street corner
the doctor tried to turn the horse
up the hill, but was unsuccessful
and the, animal plunged into the
window of the headquarters saloon.
The doctor and his wife were both
thrown from the cutter. Many
witnessed the accident and every
possible assible assistance was ren-
dered the injured ones.

The gravest feature of the situation in Natal is the marked
improvement in the artillery practice of the Boer batteries around

Ladysmith.- While the naval gun had knocked out a big” how-
itzer two more seige guns had been brought up and, according to
the London Times dispatches, four big. howitzers, two batteries of
long range field guns, and other heavy ordnance .were working
steadily. The rations, moreover, had been reduced all around
the garrison. General Buller not only knows these facts, but has
provided so strong @ relief column that the siege will be practical-
ly raised as soon as Clery is ready to strike the first blow. The
British forces in lower Natal are now estimated at 27,000 and
General Clery will have not less than 20,000 men for operations
