like, 400 rebels firing among us and we could not see a sight of them. It was ping ping over our heads and around our heads. I had half a dozen narrow escapes,

but they happened to miss me. In our sub-Divisionof 25men we had one dead and six wounded, the Imperial Yoemanry_ 15 killed, Dukes 3 killed. About 20 wounded men fell right around me but I di.i nut _ et I scratch. Looked as ifit vi as IO b?o

HERCHIMER & HUT]-ON STRUCK BY A TRAIN Who Has Travelled Twice Around

Tribute to Mrs. Kruger.

lv- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ __

Yesterday THE GUARDIAN published an

.interview with two soldiers who had lfought and bled at Paardeberg. This "morning we are enabled to give the opinion of a prominent American Lawyer and Journalist who arrived in the city cn Monday night by the Duchesse. When waited upon at the Revere Hotel our reporter was given a cordial reception and he said that he was always happy to meet the representatives of the press.

In conversation Mr. `;Be1l said that he

ent occasions and had visited HongKo:1g, India ‘and Australia and while in the lattercountry he visited and spent some time in all the leading cities.

BRITISH FLAG DENOTES FREEDOM.

Mr. Bell said that he was a loyal Ameri- ,

can, but at the same time he had the greatest admiration for Britain’s colonial Gt v ernmentsand for the home Government as well. In his travels- he was impressed with the fact that wherever the British flag is found there is freedom and liberty in the truest sense of the word. Owing to early teaching by history and in the schools sonrewhat of a prejudice is creat- ed,hut as one goes abroad all that idea vanishes. _'He believed that if crest Bri- tain and the United States were allied they would form a power that could do aboutyas they liked. Speaking of the fred

that he was very much _ Solllo

There were men lecturrngand giving ut- terance to all kinds -bf stun, but they were allowed to talk unmolestcd. Suchia thing could not hapi en in New York City. It would not be allowed _by the authorities. '

A BOER SYMPATHIZER AT ONE TIME. -

In 1se:sMr.Reil went to south Africa

and when he arrived there he was a Boer sympathizer, but he hadinot landed long when~he changed his mind. In fact he was only there six weeks when he chang- l

i ed his opinion. A study will soon disclose

that there is very little to be said in favor i of the Boers. They area base class of l people. Not degenerated because they l were never anything better. The average `

Boer is a thick head, a numskull, heknows nothing and does not amount to anything. .

'run KRUGER ADMrlvIsrRA'rIoN.

When asked about the Government Mr.

Bell said that itwas difficult to depict the I corruptness of the administration. It was simply beyond measure. The duties, exacbed are enormous, for instance, duty f to the extent of 600 per cent more is paid fl than the gocds cost in Cape Town.

The Boers do not want to see any person

that is British. On one occasion while driving through the country'M,`v-. Bell and party became thirsty anduaked for water but received “V_olsack” which does. not mean yes. ' -

When giving hislecture in Waterbury

Mr. Bell first threw a picture of J oubert on the screen. He afterwards placed Gen. Buller alongside. The crowd hissed the latter but Mr. Bell told the audience that if they were present in the House they would dcprecate such actionsas they were both friends. Mr.Bell said in conclusion “those who loved the Boers most must know them least,” Mr. Bell has a happy wayot narratingastory and his lecture on Moriday will no doubt be a Success.
