THE STRONG HAND Christian De Wet has certainly tried—or did try in the earlier days before his case was so obviously and hopelessly forlorn—-to check those ex- cesses among his men which have been too often tactily permitted, if not openly encouraged, b. other guerilla leaders in other times. Theft irom prisoners he has endeavored to put down with the utmost severity. Thus, aiter the Derbyshire Miitia had capit- ulated tc him at Rhenoster River on June 7, it came to his ears that an officer had complained that, in spite of the general’s mandate that private p operty was to be respected, a air of field glasses had been taken frem him. To the officer in question comes De Wet. who says that in the con- jusion attending the capture of so many nen itis aimost impossible to keep all his troops under contrel, but ‘Sif you can point out the man I will make an example cf him. I will blow out his brains with my own hand.” And he would have done it, too-- dared to do it with the certainty that none cf his men would have murmur- ed. That is more than would have been the case with anvof the other | : . | tight place. hoer generals, whose hold over their | . subordinates has ever been of the most , fragile character. But it has truly been said that De Wet has his men under sort of charm—they do his bid- ding whether they will or no. He is severe vpon them— if any t lagging or faultering in the face of a heavy fire, sjambok in hand ue ve rounds them ¢ ff or flags them back © their places like so many Kaffis, while for their physical needs he -hows 'itie corcern. VW hen food was sowing hort ard cur troops were him hard, some of his men complained cf the poorness ot their ations. In reply they got the stoical one: “A burgher who can't live on m at and mealics is no man fer me.” Yet be is not feared by his men—- they relate these things of him with side and affection in f io say: “See what a fine fellow our ciicralis!” They respect and ad- thes rong hand, even though °t ‘rushes them. De Wet knows what sort of material he has to do with. ressimy LENIENT AND CANDID, The lot ef a prisoner can never be a happy one or even an ea.y one, but I do not think De Wet has ever done anything unnecessarily to embitter the path of th: se who have falien into his hands.

It is quite a mistake to suppose that De Wet in rapid fights and doublings has taken all his ferce with him. On the contrary, he has never had the same set of men with him long, barring, perhaps a handful of stalwarts who have fought hard fiom the early days of the war. He has | found the pursuers hot on his track; he hus breken up his force and fled: safe away, he has picked upa few men here, a few men there, ard so got together a considerable party once more; and this the power of the man’s magnetic personality and the glamer which hts exploits have shed over his name have enabicd him to do again and yet again. But his force is dwindling and ail his toil can avail him littlein the end. A bold and cunning guerilla leader he has shown hims:If to be; but what has he accom- plished? He has got away times out of number very cleverly, has shown himself an adept at getting owt of a And that is reaily all. fi He has never shown himself to be 2 genera!; more, he has never attempted anything in which great generalship His line of conduct in these latter days is en- couraging his men to a resistance which he knows is futile, is criminal; he shows himseljf here in his true colors—-as a guerilla leader pure and ‘simply, albeit as a ran he is net wiih- ‘such he will out his redeeming qualities.
