ONE OF LEYD’S TRICKS. The London Empire gives promin- ence to tlie assertion that the recent stoppage of the German liner Bund- ersrath by British cruisers off Delagoa Bay, as well as the seizure of other ships on suspicion of having arms on board forthe enemy, was dueto a deep-laid plan of Dr. Leyds, who caused most definite information to fall into British hands, giving parti- culars of contraband on board. The British fell into the trap, and the inci- dent was then promptly used by Leyds to stir up through the German papers the most violent animosity against England, SHELL DODGING. According to a British sergeant-ma)j- or of artillery, quoted in Pearson’s Weekly, “shell dodging” on the battle- field is quite an art. In all his long experiences, and he took a somewhat prominent part in the Khaitoum battle of last summer, he said he only seen three or four shells actua!ly in the air, and they came from the gun he himself fired. He explained that there are a few guns with a somewhat slow muzzle ve- locity, and the men firing these can sometimes catch a glimpse of the shells in their flight, but it would be impos- sible for any man to see a shot coming toward himself. Dodging shells is done by getting under cover immediately before a gun is actually fired. “For instance,” said the sergeant- major, “if I were climbing a hill at the top of which a gun was directed against me I could tell exactly when a shell was likely to come bounding along. Before the order is given to fire the men in charge of the piece ‘stand clear,” and that is a warning note, so to speak. Keep your weather eye on the gun directly against you and when the gunners stand clear you dodge the shot. “T’ve dodged many a shell,” said the sergeant, and I’d forfeit a month’s pay — _— had Mad | in the House of Commons, I believe The foolish foreign critics may talk of that side of the question if it entertains them, but itis not to be even thought of in London. The London _news- papers are discussing, rather, what | disposition will be made of the Orange Free State and the Transvaal; when they are subdued, waat rights the Boers will be granted, the construction of the Parliamentary machinery, local and federal, if the lines of the systen:s in Canada and Australia are to be! followed, and what degree of severity is to be used to those Cape Dutch, who, after fair treatment rebelled and joined with the Boers. Another iliustration of this same , spirit is given in the despatch stating that in the Commons a member en- | quired of the Government what pro. tection it was proposed to afford the British prisoners in Pretoria when that | city was bombarded. To this, Mr. George Wyndham, the Parliamentary Secretary for War, replied that this would be left to the discretion of Lord., Roberts. It may take time to reach | Pretoria, but it will be reached ; it may ' take time to reduce the fortress there, | but it will be reduced. FEELING IN ENGLAND- | “In London,” says Mr. Grier of! Montreal, just returned from the Old Country, “the heavy lossesin South | Africa have had a tendency to cast a | gloom over the people, and it is not | surprising as it is difficult to meet with ' those who have not a relative at the | front, or who are not in mourning for | those who have already lost their lives fighting for the Queen and Empire. There is a good deal of criticism heard, and you hear it inthe most vairied and contradictory form, yet there is one thing upon which all agree, and that is the idea of strengthening the hands of the Government and carrying on the war toa satisfactory ending, let it cost what it may. “In fact,” he said, ‘‘you cannot meet an Englishman who will cry quits while we have a man in the field, and in spite of what the Irish members say —. in their secret hearts they are thorough- ‘at the hands of ihe Boers are set wec ‘ad Voor ly in field.’ sympathy with the men in the NEW PROBLEM IN WARFARE. The London ‘Daily Mail” has re-- ceived a letter from Julian Ralph, who is at Modder River. He tells in clear language of the new problem of war- fare w:.ich the English are now forced to solve. He says:—“British defeats due to the fact that the method of modern warfare have been brought to a pause | ' _by the demonstrated power of the weapons of to-day. The essential qualities of the army of twenty years ao are no longer the supreme neces- sities for success. The man_ behind ever. Dig atrench and line it with goud shots, supported by modern artil- lery and no enemy can advance in the face ofthem. They may be outflank- ed or starved, but while their ammuni- tion holds out none can oust them. They can fill the whole place over a radius of at least 4.000 yards with such a withering blast of shrapnel and rifle bullets that no troops can stand in the open before it.” as MORE TROOPS FOR SOUTH AFRICA. The War Office is making prepara- tions to continue the stream of troops for South Africa. Four large steamers have been chartered. Japan agrees to let the Armstrongs transfer to Eng- land four naval quick.firers that were built for her, consenting to wait forthe execution of her own order until the hostilities in South Africa are over. Several European powers, by similar consent as to the guns being construct- ed by Vicker, Sons & Maxim, enable England to secure 100 Maxims. ‘Two thousand men are constantly employ- ed at Woolwich arsenal; and all the gun and ammunition factories are working night and day to execute Gov- ernment orders. The weekly output of four firms is four million rounds Outside of the requirements for Souch Africa, Great Britain is accu:nulating immense stores of war material. Con- siderable divergence of opinion exists as to the adequacy of the Government's military proposals even now. A GLIMPSE OF THE BETTER SIDE. Father Grimes, a member of the Anglican Society of Mission Preach- ers of St. John the Evangelist (Eng- land), who has lately returned from Africa, gives some incidents which re- lieves a little the horrors of the present war in the land :-— “When the British troops had storm- ed the heights near Elandslaagte, and found 200 of the enemy at their mercy —— vf) Na f t iy we!

A tele- gram was received in the House of Commons: ‘The wounded Boers are } receiving the same treatment in hospital |as the English’ It was received icheers.

The joan desired was a (the gun stands more supreme than | big one, and, although Dr. Leyds held ' long conferences with the directors of | two of the leading banks, he was un successful. It is also learned that the | probable reason why Dr. Leyds’ pro. jected visit to St Petersburg was abandoned likewise was financial. He ‘had asked M. de Witte, Russian ; Minister of Finance, to grant the same ‘Joan which he endeavored to place in | Berlin, but the Russian decline to do ' so, VISITED BOER CAMP. An Australian newspaper correspon- dent, Mr. Reay,’ paid an interesting visit to the Boer camp on Sunday, to make enquiries as to the fate of his missing colleague, Mr. Hales, of The London Daily News, who was captur-- ed by the Boers on Feb. 7, at the time Mr. Lamie of The Melbourne Age was killed. Mr. Reay arrived at the camp, blindfolded, just as church service was commencing. He sat blindfolded throughout the service. When he was taken before commandant Delarey his eyes were unbandaged. Delarey was most corteous to the correspondent. He said he deepiy regretted that a non- combatant had been killed,and express- ed his sympathy with Mr. Lamie’s widow. Mr. Reay was then escorted to Mr. Lamie’s grave, and the latter’s watch and other personal effects were handed over to Mr. Reay. ‘The escort informed Mr. Reay that the two repub- ‘lics had 120,000 men fighting, and were able to continue the war indefinite- ly, The Montreal Gazette remarks that the proposal to offer 10,000 mounted men for service in South Africa is be- ing endorsed in some places. The pro- moters’ hearts are in the right place, but they lack a little in judgment. In matters of this kind it rs not well to offer what we might not be able to de- liver, To provide 10,coo mounted efficients out of Canada’s available re-- sources would be a big order. | Minard’s Liniment Cures Diphtheria. - ~—= GENERAL BULLER AND HIS STAFF EXAMINING.
