THE TRANSVAAL SITUATION,

Arrival of Troops From India.

MASSING OF THE BOERS NOT FEARED.

They Can do Nothing Yet For Want of Forage.

(Spacia, to Tae Examiner’)

Loxpoyn, @ct 6.—Nothing important has developed in respect to the Transvaal situation.

The Daily Telegraph’s despatch an- nuncing that the Boers have invaded Na- tal and seized Laing’s Nek now seems to be without foundation.

The British position at Natal was con- siderably strengthened by the arrival yes-

ments of 2,500 infantry, cavalry and

to the front by train.

The military authorities, apparently, no longer fear the massing of the Boers alung the border. In fact, it has been provided that the Boers shall not make a sudden in- the _ territory of Natal. The authorities are rather pleased with tuis tecause, they argu that the tengion of waiting wil! tell se- verely as to the Boer-, liscipline and more~ over they will soon have exhausted what little forage they have and what is near the border, and be compelled to ‘fall Lack on their base.

OPINIONS OF THE LONDON PRESS.

Lonpvox, Oct. 5.—The Post eays What are we waiting for? is the question everybody isasking, but cannot answer.”

The Chronicle says :—“It is on al! bands admitted that from a military point of view the Boers are and must for a jong time re~ main masters of the situation.”

I'he Standard says :—The situation is full of danger, and no ove wil! be seurpris~ ed to hear al! further talk of peace rendered futile by a collision between the Boers aod tne Imperial troops, or by some hasty raid across the frontier.’

The News says: “From a purely tactical point cf view there seems to be absolutely no reason why the Boers should not attack us at once if they are really determined to fight, rather than to give away. To play a waiting game would simpiy be to ensure the presence of an overwhelming British force.”

TheGlube says: ‘‘But one deduction is to be drawn from the telegrams received during the last 43 hours from South Africa. They mean war, end that speedily. Indeed, the movilization of troopsin the Transvaal appears almost completed, and even now the frontier may have been ciozeed and a deliberate ac: of aggression committed,”

The Evening Standard says: “It must be feared that Kruger could not prevent war if he tried. Things Lave goneioo far.”

The Echo eavs: “Every day’a delay in Commencing war with the Transvaal is strengiheniog the peace treaty.”

The Mail declares: “There appears to be every probability that the Boer re- ply to the last despatch of the British Government will take the form of lead.”

The Leader says: “What is hoped of the Boers by those who wish them. ill is that they may put themselves in the wrong by beginning the hostilities.”

Moor: & McL20d's Display

The writer has just acquired a much enlarged idea of the population of Char- lottetown.

He attended the millinery opening at Messrs. Moore & McLeod’s last evening.

From 8 o’cloc« until 10 the second floor of their large building was thronged with ladies eagerly examining the great dieplay of new fall hats, bonnets, trimming ma-~ terials, ete.

Ifone might judge from the comments heard on all sides the exhibit wasa great success.

Waadering round among 80 many dainty creations it was very hard to say which was most worthy of comment.

For the benetit of those who were unable to attend there follow a few descriptions :

For example there was a large violet velvet bat, trimmed across the front with an alsatian bow of white, mauve and violet peau-de-soie ribbon—and a large grey~ bird. Crownedged with steel and black sequin trimming, two ¢mall grey~birds underneath the rim,

Then came a large hat with stitched blue velvet rim, etitched crown of brown felt trimmed from side with rosettes of white chiffon, brown plume, quill effect, finished underneath with rosettes of chitfon and bright buckles.

A dainty little bonnet had a rim of green chenille, soft crown of green velvet, trimms ed in front with a bow of green taffeta rib- bon, two white coque feathers, rich ties, finished with fancy ornaments.

The exhibit was the best possible guar- antee of the artistic taste of Miss M.G. MciKeiver, who has charge of the millinery department,

The store, ail through, presented a very handsome appearance. The first floor was very tastefully decorated with new silks, ribbons, trimming materials, etc.

Many were attracted by a very fine ex- hibit of new dress materials arraged u pon tre front counter.

A very interesting counteralso was the one upon which the furs were shown,

Mess:s Moore & McLeod are indeed to be congratulated upon the success offlast evening’s display.

(LILIUM HARRISII)

One of the grandest wirter- flowering plants in culti- vation.

Pure pearly white, deliciously fragrant

characterize this charming and celebra Easter Lily. Its popularity and sales have increased wonderfully and deserved- ly, for without exception, it is one of the most valuable bulbs for winter flowering in the house. A profusion of bloom may be bad from Christmas until spring, if a number are planted and “brought | in” at diffzrent times. Bulbs after flowering can be ripened and rested a couple ot mvaths by withholding water, aud will taen pro« duce another crop of flowers frequently equal to the first. It isa magnificent variety for church decoration at Easter and tens of thousands are grown for this purpose. The flowers are pure wite, 4 or 5 inches long (and frequently muze) anc of the most delicions fragrance.
