Among the latest appliances received
In Anaconda for grading for THE new

The wagons are drawn by three horses
and each vehicle has a capacity of two
yards of loose dirt. The wagons are low,
making it easy for the shovelers to fill
front end, dumps them in the sameman-
ner as an ore car, namely, by turning a
lever allowing the bottom of the wagon
bed to open when the contents are emp
tied in a moment. A dozen of these
wagons were received today and are be-
ing set up ready to put in use.

the neighborhood of Winburg and twist
ing and turning through broken coun-
try all the way up 10 Hellbron. or prac-
tically 10 the Naal river. This railway
has played very important part i'm the
South African campaign. 1t is essential
that this line OF communication be kept
open. and that necessarily implies cam

Ter on that sea of kopjes that rolled
across Natal and also flung a broke n
English division on that reef of Spion
lop. where so many goodly British SOL
diers were sent to their everlasting
sleep.
This little something was the fact
that numbers alone do not always
count There are, indeed. many other
considerations in modern campaigning
besides mere numerical strength. One
OF the most important of these consid-
eratons is the character Of the country
in which any given campaign lis to be
carried out II has taken the British,
who We're ideal enough strategists on
the smooth fields Of Aldershot, a long
time to learn this lesson, and IL they
have not even yet learned IL Ii Is no
fault of the astute Boer. The burgher
knew IL long ago. and. in fact, has made
the most of the knowledge. When In
doubt, says the Boer take to the hills
He knows that broken country is the
only place for him to make stand
when force OF vastly superior strength
rolls against him. This fact has much
to do with the present situation in
South Africa.
When the victorious Roberts marched
into Bloemfontein. Great Britain went
mad with JOY. The Boer. like "Br'er
Rabbit" lay low and said nothing. He
knew what he knew. He was not ach-
ing To make a last stand against the
British hordes in the open and level
country that preyails in the lower part
OF the Orange Free State He had to
have his hills. and for that reason he
fell back toward winburg. When once
among his beloved kopjes again he let
his lines spread out up to Kroonstad.
A thin line II must have been, nearly
200 miles long, but the Boer officer
knows very well that one man well In
trenched is worth ten men attacking.
This country i'm the northern half OF
the Orange Free state is well worth
studying. III the British had studied
that territory little more closely, Il
is more than probable that they would
never have allowed the Beers to fall
back into such delectable country.
There We're. OF course, special reasons
why the British did not strike some de-
cisive blow sooner. When Roberts ar
rived In Bloemfontein. he was i'm more
or less demoralized condition. IL was n

YTlSIORY has its little ironies as
II two great wars OF England have
i shown. When IL was Elizabeth
who sat on the English throne and not
Victoria, and when the pompous Philip
OF Spain sent his great armada swag-
gering up the channel to crush the
power of the lnsolent Anglo Saxon for
all time, 1t was the Britisher i'm those
days who occupied very much the same
position as does the Boer OF today.
In the present South African war
Great Britain has been the swaggerer
The Transvaal has been the little coun-
try battling for its independence. Eng
lsh generals have boasted that they
would two step into Pretoria and waltz
into Johannesburg. That was practi-
cally what good King Philip, three
centuries ago. said about London and
Chatham. He had behind his boast a
fleet that was stupendous In It's mag
nificence and apparent strength. The
Spaniard was a great fighter I'm those
days, and Spain thought England would
be easy.
Just so with the British and the army
that went down to the Cape. But there
was something which neither the Span
lard of the Eiizabethan era nor the
Briton of the Victorian period counted
on. 1t was that forgotten something
which i'm each case led to the humiia-
ton Of the more powerful nation. II
was that forgotten something which
cast CONSERVATION over the great gilt
tering galleons of King Philip when the
little, quick sailing English cruisers
dogged their heels and sent them scat
tered and broken along the coast Of the

swell the Boer forces TO the figures
which reports OF few weeks ago cred
tied .Qom Paul's people with having.
IL has already been said that the
British army in Africa has been operat-
ing good deal like the Spanish armada
in the English channel. one OF the rea-
sons why this great army. the largest
force Great Britain has had in the field
during all the century. has proved so
unwieldy and so snaillike and cumber-
some Ia it's movements h the fact that
the ccmmissariat department OF a di-
vision OF Tommy Atkinses has devel-
