THE WAR N NATAL.

The news OF the defeat OF General
Butler at the Tugcla river IL the most
serious 30 far received from the South
African scene OF conflict. Great con-
fidencc has been placed In the ability.
experience and valor Of this British
commander. II has all along been sur
posed that his arrival at the front would
change tho coursc Of events. But u
now seems the ilocrs have succeeded In
checking his advance for the time be-
Ing. General Butler reports the loss OF
eleven guns. and from the wording Of
his dispatch II must be- inferred that the
loss OF life was heavy.
The total loss 10 the British. so far.
including prisoners, reaches IN the
neishborhood OF G,oOo. not counting the
casualties OF General Buffers forces.
This already exceeds the number OF
killed ana wounded on the American
side In the war that crushed Spain's
power In the western hemisphere. No
wonder II feeling OF depression IL felt
at home. as the magnitude OF the South
African undertaking Is receiving pub
lie demonstration.
II Ia too carly 90 speculate on the
possible effect of the reverse sustained
by General Butler. but It would create
no surprise n the rivals Of Great Brit
ain should at thls time make some
movements 10 the detriment OF her vast
interests. There are various rumors
afioat OF a disquletlng nature. One Is to
the eject that France In about to buy
from spain the fortress Ceuta on the
African side OF the Strait OF Gibraltar.
while Russia Ia negotiating for Tarlfa.
on the European side OF the Strait.
What such deal would mean 10 hard
to conceive at present In the hands
OF strong naval powers these positions
would block the entrance 60 the Medi-
terranoan and render the Suez canal
practically valuelcss to England us a
hiyhroad to India.
Another rumor declares that the
Negus OF Abysslnia. In accordance with
Russian plans. II preparing for an at
tack on the Sudan. while the Amecr OF
Afghanistan In said TO show a dispose
ton 90 alv himself with Russia. stili
another rumor has II that there are
signs OF unusual military activity at
Port Arthur and Talienwan In China.
There may not be any desire 10 pre-
cipltate a world-war but the numerous
rumors OF military activity prove the
uneasiness that prevails. and that tho
great powets are preparing for posslbll-
tiles that may arise. England's extra.

proportlonally well remunerated.
In England the society has 100 sta

seems to be the distribution OF tracts.
In London alone were distributed dur

London not a single convert was made
during the year. For the entire Eng
land, twenty eight converts were re-
ported, twenty OF whom were children

four were probably paupers, glad to re-
