At this writing the British force of all arms at Ladysmith is about 10,000 to ll.000 strong, the latter being out-side figures. Their artillery is thirty four _ 15-pourider field guns, three 12-pounders landed by the Powerful, two quick-iirers captured from the Boers at Elands- laagte, and eight 7 or 9 pounder muzzle -'- loading pieces with the Natal local forces-in all 47 guns. The Boer forces are variouslyesti- mated at from 20,000 to 30,000 men with “plenty of artillery.” A report of a few days ago stated that the British water supply had beencut off. This reference to the fortified positions in the hills, but it is quite clear that the belea uered army still has ossession water that is needed. It is believed that military stores and food are suhicient for weeks, if not for months to come. As to the ability of the British army to stand a siege of some weeks, now it is surrounded,the case of Plevna in the Russo-Turkish war of 1877-8 is cited. In that case a. force of less _than 40,000 Turks, with 90 guns held out for 143 days against a. Russian army of nearly 100,000 men and 482 guns, many of which were heavy pieces- The Russian force, accustom- ed to siege operations, had with them at the time General Todleben, the de- fender of Sebastopol, and one of the greatest military engineers of the time. Admitting that the position at Ladysmith is not so strong as that at Plevna the disproportion in artillery and weight of metal is by no means so great as in the Russo-Turkish siege. And the Beers, while excel- lent field fighters, or as soldiers under eover,have had little experience in siege operations and are ill adapted for it. Military critics lay some stress upon this feature. So far in this war the Boers have had no suc- cess in assatling British intrench ed positions. and t-hero is therefore strong hope that they will be unable to cap- ture Ladysmith. ' on the continent of Europe has been receiving reports of the capture of General Wltite’s army. These reports have so far proved untrue, and we may expect to hear other rumors and reports of ia like nature. equally un- true for days to come. ---1--¢-_----- Lieut. Cel. Hughes, whose name has received such frequent mention in connection with military matters, holds his military position in the 45th Ontario Battalion. He is editor and proprietor of the Lindsay Warder; a member of Parliament of strong Con- serva.t.ive convictions; a Methodist in creed, a prominent Orangemen, Free- `mason and Oddfellow. He was born fn 1852. It appears that the Ottawa Ministers were quite willing that Col. Hughes should be attached to the Canadian Regiment going to South Africa, but Gen.Flutton was strongly opposed. But Col. Hughes, while having no omcial connection with the Contingent was permitted to go with them on the Sardinian to South Africa. _Ho carries with him a certifi- cate showing his standing in the Can- adian militia If things don’t go rich; THE COSTLIEST SPORT. “ Enormous Expense of the Columbia Shem- rock Contest. ` To the men immedtately interested, international yacht rat-ing is the cost- lieet >port in the world. The btll for the yachts themselves, for building, al- terations ard repairs will amount. to fully $250,000 for each ;the expenses of l racing them will cost their respective owners easily $250,000 more. Here is a cool million just for building and rac- ieg the boats. '1`he satis alone coal as, muah as an ordinary sailing yacht. V The Columbia‘e rails are ratd to have i cost $8.000, and the Shamrot-k’s even; more, for hers were woven to order from Egyptian and Sea Island cotton, mixed with silk. The expense of mein- gaining tho* crew was, or ratter is, enormous, for the boats are not yet out of commission. It is said that the skip- per of the Columbia received $2.000 for his services. The sa.ary or the mute is $100 a month; the second mate $40; the four quartermast rs $85 a mr-nth each, and the the 82 members of the crew each $30. Food for the crew cost easily $600 a month: each tender accompanying the yachts cost $4.000 for the few weeks of the season, and doo kage and tonnage cost about $8,000 more for each yacht. 'dstimates of the total cost of the Shamrock have been placed all the way from $150,000 to $450,000. Probably Sir Thomas him- self does not know exacfly what his lit- _ tie sport has cost him; tuere are doubtless stack a of btlls yet to be presented-such bills as $16,000 tor the charter - of four t=nd\rs. and $5.400 wages for 20 men Erin. $100,000 more in fitting her out, and another $100.00() in entertaining ` guests during his visit. The most - im. pressivefeature about this- array of costs is that the yachts upou which so much has been spent. are useless -after the races. The Columbia, for instance, can race no more for they will pro- bably be no yacht fit to meet her, and could hardly apply to the town as a.___for cruising _she would be a faiiuro.In a river runs beside it. It probably had YUM' 01' ‘W0 her dfllcate hull Wm b° worth only the mttal of which it is made. _ The money spent by yacht owners in entertaining reaches fer into six figures. g P , ofasnflictent area. to obtain all the Commodore* Morgan entertained at least 100 guests every race day, and' _,Howard Gould and John Jacob As°or entertained evena .argl-r number.- Gibeon Wilers in Leilie’s Weekly.
