BOER ORGANIZATION A letter from Colonel Deviliebois

Mareuil], General J oubert’s chief of staff,

ito whom the Boer victory at Colenso is t waainiy atiributed by the French'p: ; | mainly atiributed by the French,papers,

published. In the course of i this « unication the colonel says | ihat’two Creusot’s representatives ren- \dered the Boers valuable aid. One

named Grunbeng, he adds, is the head ' of their artillery, and the other Leon di- ' i. co rp ; | rected the posting of “Long Tom” to the dizzy beights around Ladysmith and also arranged for the victualling of camps, which he himself located.

The writer expresses admiration for the organization and commissariat ai— rangements of the Boer camps. The burghers he says get excellent meat, bread and biscuit, coffee, rice, potatoes and other condiments with surprising liberality. He pays ahigh tribute to the unsuspected military capability of Boer leaders and declares that ever) detail of the Boer organization works like clock-work.

COLONIALS AT SUNNYSIDE.

The part taken by the Canadian and Australian contingents at Sunnyside is thus described by a correspondent of the Times :—

The enemy were found ina laager in a strong position in some rather steep kopjes, and it was at once evident that they were expecting strong reiniorce— ments from surrounding tarms. Col- onel Pilcher at once extended his force so as to try and surround the kopje:. Whilst this was going on Lieutenannt Aide, with four Queenslander troopers, went to the far left of what was suppus- ed to be the Boer position. His orders were to give notice of any attempt at retreat on the part of the enemy. He did his work well. Getting close into the kopje, he saw a number of the enemy slinking off, and at once chal- lenged them. As he d‘d so, a dozen Boers darted out of the kopje, and Aide wpened fire on them, which caus- ed the Boers to fire a volley at him.

Interesting Particulars of the Struggle betwecn Great Britain and the Boers.

BLACK POPULATION IN SOUTH AFRICA. | Boston Globe,

* nn

Lieutenant Aide fell from his horse with two bullets in his body. One went through the fleshy part of his stomach, entering his body sidewise, the other j went into his thigh. A treopernamed | McLeod was shot through the heart | and fell dead. Both the other troopers | |

were wounded. ‘Trooper Ross caught a horse and hoisted his lieutenant into the saddle and sent him out of danger.

“Meantime the R. H. battery taking | range from lieutenant Aide’s fire, opén- ed out on the enemy. ‘Their guns put a great fear into the Boers, and a gen- eral bolt setin. The Boers fired as they cleared, and if our fellows formed | up in the style usual to the British | army in action we should have suffered heavily, but the Queensland bushmen nad drepped benind cover and soon had complete possession of tne kopjes. ; Another troopor named Victor Jones | was shot through the brain, and 14 others were more or less badly wound- ed.

The Boers then surrendered. We took forty prisoners and found about 14 dead Boers on the ground besidgs a dozen wounded. They were all Cape Dutch, no Transvaalers being found in ; the ranks. Wesecured 40,000 rounds ot their ammunition, 50q Martini rifles, and only one Mauser rifle, which was in the pessession of the Boer commander.

“After destroying all we took, we moved on and had a look at some of the farms nearby, as from some of the documents found in camp it was certain that the whole district was a perfect nest of rebellion. Quite a little store of arms and amunition was discovered by this means, and the oc- cupants of the farms were therefore transported to Belmont. Our fellows carried the little children and babies in their arms all the way, and marched in- to Belmont singing, with the little ones on their shoulders. Every respect was shown to the women, old and young, and to the old men, but the young fellows were closely guarded all the time. The Canadians did not lose a single man; neither did any of the others except the Queenslanders.”

OUR BLACK WARD.

A rather curious state of affairs has grown out of the fact that in this Boer } war England’s wards—the Basutos, the Zulus and Kiffirs—have remained loyal to England’s interests. As de- pendents they look for protection and in atime like the present for provisions. In the natural coarse of events this is not a question that it is difficult to grapple with, but now with the whole country in a tumult, with the regular life interupted and no opportunity for aught bnt the question in hand, the matter is assuming Serious proportions. Some 1,500 of the natives of Natal

ry > 79 ~ Ww 3 have been pressed into service as Was" |

— te SS oe ———— ‘

on drivers, stretcher-bearers and cou- riers; no more, however, than this num- ber can be employed. The thousands that remain are, according to the Aborigines Protective Society, threat- ened with starvation. Indeed, as long ago as Dec. 8, 1899, the Natal Sec-- retary for Native Affairs wrote that ‘there is already severe distress for want of grain’ but that ‘relief will be required

shoitly and of a substantial nature.’ |

While many funds have been raised for the benefit of the war all have been devoted to some specific use, so it has been found necessary to establish in London by the Aborigines Protective Society a syecial “Zulu Relief Fund” for the starving natives, for which con- tributions are being solicited through- out the United Kingdom. This applies to the Zulusand Kiffirs, as the Basutos are not starving and are well armed and well mcunted, This fact adds to England’s worzies, as the Basutos, un- der the guise of anxiety to show their loyalty to England by striking a blow in her honour, have at heart the re-- membrance of past injuries inflicted by the Boers. Itis largely owing to the firmness and personal] influence of Sir Godfrey Lagden that they remain quiet. Just what the consequence of an uprising among them would be none can foretell. But it can readily be seen that the armed conflict is not

the only on which the empire is grappling. WHAT CHURCHILL SAYS. Winston Churchill sends from

Chieveley Campa long despatch in which he says :—

“There are many encouraging signs that the Boers are wearying of the struggle with ever-deminishing strength against ever-increasing orders. The sky already brightens with promise of victorious peace.”

“Our losses inthe fight for Hussar Hill were about fifty. All the fighting was conducted at long range rifle. At last, for the first time during these operations, we had found the Boer flank, and had placed a strong force at right angles tohis main position. The fruits of this were plucked on the 18th (Sunday), when General Hildyard be- gan a vigorous attack across the nek on Monto Crise. Toe guns and the other brigades assisted. The boers now commenced a rear ¢uird action, which degenerated rapidly intoa fight.

The whole line of abandoned trenches, |

two mileslong, were captured witha

a

|

loss to the assaulting brigade of three |

men.

The Boers then fied across the.

Tugela river at great spead with dis--'

order, but bravely covered by their artillery. They ‘eft in their camp some prisoners and mueh material. The British loss was comparatively small, chiefly in General Hildyard’s brigade,

~a @ @ @ *® ooo’ @ @ @ SS @*,

which galla ily stormed the key of the

position, ‘The Bo. flank has been complete- y turned; s rong defensive positions

have been<a,,:ured, and valuable posi- tions for fur‘ner advance have been secured. The Boers have been put to flight for Use first \ime in Natal since Elandslaagte. British soldiers slept lastnight in Boer tents on top of captured hils, trom which they can see right i 'o Ladysmith, All ranks are encoura.: dand now, perhaps, with God’s heip we shal! succeed.”

The following extract from a letter of the Bishop of Mashonaland, dated October 20th, 1899, will be read with interest: Ar last dilatory, self-centred England is awake, and sees through ail the cant, ind shuffling, and clever- scheme of Paul Kruger and his Hol-- iander clique. This is England’s last chance. It she accepts her responsi- bilities, she can make Africa tbe ful- crum of her Southern Colonial Em- pire. If she vacillates again, she will be contemptible to Europe, and the despair of her colonies, and a mere mother-in-law to hersonsand daugh- ters, who will despise ber forever. But surely all the hesitating wiggle-waggling now done with, and mere arm-chiar academic theories exploded, we shal] have a Federal Union in South Africa, to unite with the newly-federated Aus-- tralia, and the established Dominion of Canada to form England’s triple colonial crown. Thenthe Empire wil unite with America for the federation of the world, under free institufions and equal rights for all. and if only the Church would hear the Master’s call and federate too, what a glorious cen-- tury thenext might be! A crisis then | in Church and State would be treated as a football, and we should play leap- frog with all difficulties, and we should then together face the great sore of the world, to heal it, and to bring in the Christ that isto be In the mean- time we have but to ‘hoe our patch,’ each of us, and it will all help to bring in the Master’s kingdom of righteous- ness and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.’

Scorching in Business.

The bicycler is not the only man who scorches. ‘There are business-scorchers, pro- fessional - scorchers, farmer-scorchers, me- chanic-scorchers and laborer - scorchers, The man who over- works, who scorches, no matter what his occupation, and at the same time neg- lects his health, will sooner or later pay a penalty in sickness and pos- sibly premature death.

If a man will al- ways watch his health and correct minor irregularities by a resort to the right rem- edy, he may do a reasonable amount of scorching without serious results. Nearly all serious maladies are the result of im- perfect nutrition. Imperfect nutrition is just another name for starvation. A man may eat voraciously and still starve. He may put on an eighth of a ton of sickly flabby flesh and have a big, corpulent stom- ach, and still be starving. He may scorch | until he goes to the opposite extreme and

ets thin as a rail, and he is still starving.

he trouble lies in the fact that no matter how much food is taken it is not properly assimilated. The blood does not receive the life-giving elements of the food that build firm, healthy flesh, solid muscle and vibrant nerve fibers. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery makes the assimilation perfect. It makes solid, healthy flesh, without raising the weight above Nature’s normal. At all medicine stoves.

E. M. Seavolt, of No. 477 Sancusky St., Vernon, Kudx Co., Ohio, writes: **I can heartily recommend your ‘Golden Medical Discovery" to any one who its troubled with indigestion and tor pid liver: I was that bad it was about chroni¢ with me. All the other medicines could give me no re- tief: but at last, what came to mv relief was that wonderful medicine the *Golden Medical Dis- covery.’ I could scarcely eat auvthing—it woul4 put me in terrible distress in my stomach, I had a dull aching and grind:ng pain in my stomach with pain in my right side and back. ard head ache. bad taste in mv mouth; at night I was feverish and the soles of my feet burned.

I took four bottles of the ' Discovery’ and two vials of the ‘ Pellets.’ Iam well and hearty anc tan eat as well aS any body can,—thanks to you!
