LONDON, August 27.—The War Officehas received the following dispatch from
Lord" Roberts, dated Belfast," to-day:
"The Boers, have been beaten Joackby Bruce Hamilton, 'at. Winburg. Gene-ral Olivier has been captured."
.:The text of Lord Roberts's dispatch
shows that three of Olivier's sons .were.also captured in the attack which the
\u25a0Boers made, from three sides, on Win-burg..". .-..-\u25a0\u25a0
Lord Roberts adds that General Olivierwas "the moving spirit among theBoers in the southeast portion of theOrange" Colony during the war."
BOERS STUBBORNLY FIGHTING.. GELUiIS FARM, August 27.—GeneralPole-Carew came into touch with theBoers at the main ;position at Dalma-nutha on Saturday, and shelled a planta-
tion/ east of.Belfast. The Boers replied
with long-range guns.General French, on General Buller's
flank, exchanged shots with the Boers,but no damage was done. An artilleryduel occurred on the British front, also,the 12-pounders bombarding the Boers po-sition, and the latter displaying great en-terprise in handling their guns, whichwere placed in a strong position.
The enemy evidently intends to conteststubbornly the ground between here andMachadorp.;;: thirty mile battle front.
LONDON. August 27.—The followingdispatch was sent .to-day by Lord Ro-berts: .--\u25a0
"Belfast, Sunday, August 26.—Engagedthe enemy the greater part of theday over a perimeter of nearly thirty
I miles. Little's Division of two brigadesof cavalry, all undei- Builer, operatedsouthwest of Dalmanutha. French, withtwo brigades of cavalry, moved north-west of Belfast. As soon as Frenchreachel Lekenly, Pole-Carew advancedfrom Belfast in support. The enemy,in. considerable strength, opposed Bufl-er's and_ . Pole-Carew's advance. Hebrought three Long Toms and manyother guns and pompoms (quick-firingguns) into action. The firing until darkwas hot and persistent. Builer says hiscasualties will not exceed forty.
*
Pole-Caiew has not reported. j
The Boers are making a determinedstand. They have a large number ofguns: the country is difficult, and- wellsuited for their tactics and is less favor-able to cavalry than any we have hither-to gone over."

"What a. Dreadful Tiling-it is to wake up hi the night sufferingirom cholera morbus, and yet cases otthis kind are very common. The trouble,however, willnever become serious ifyou!keep a bottle of Pain-Killer at hand for

GENERAL I.F.E'S DEATH MASK.
Iteport That One irjitTßren Fonnrt In
Corcoran Proljaiilyun Rrror,
A special telegram to the BaltimoreAmerican from Lexington, Va., says:
A dispatch sent out from Washingtona few weeks ago ' to a. Chicago paper,stating that the death-mask of GeneralRobert E. Lee. taken by Clark Mills,wasrecently found in the Corcoran Art Gal-lery, of Washington, is erroneous, as faras can be ascertained here, where Gene-ral Lee, as president of Washington andLee University, spent the closing years
of his life. Professor A. L. Nelson, ofthe university, and M. Milley, a photo-grapher of Lexington, both of whomknew the southern hero personally, andwere thrown with him, frequently, saythat as well as they recall the incident,Mr. Mills was not in Lexington at thetime of General Lee's death. His visitwas made here several years previous tothat time/probably in the fall' of ISG7,when he made a cast of Genera.) Lee'sface, Mr. Mills, in talking to Mr. Milleyat;the time, said that he used a new-process just brought to this country fromEurope by his son. which process heclaimed to be greatly superior to theplaster method. The new process wasput on the face like lather, and gave bet-ter results. Itmade a thin mask andwas easily removed from the face. Mr.Mills procured of Mr. Miley a number ofGeneral Lee's pictures to be used inmodelling-, as he wished to get a groatvariety of facial expressions. Mr. Mills
'\u25a0wrote" to Mr. Miley after: his return . toWashington and requested the latter tohandle the life-size busts of G-eneral Lse,which he was at that time prepared to
make. After this.-\correspondence-
Mr.Miley never heard from Mr. Mills, lior,i;,i i1(?i1(? over h'?ar what became of themask. Persons here in a position toknn-vfav that no "mask was ever madeof General Lee after his death.
