Methuen's Demonstration in Force.
MODDER RIVER, Jan. 17-There was a
demonstration in force under Gen. Methu-
en- yesterday, a division being engaged
with the object of ascertaining the
strength and disposition of the Boer forces
and also in order to try to draw the
Beers from Kimberley. where lately they
have been active.
The British discovered the Beers in
great force. and had been reinforced from
the direction of Jacobsdahl At 4.30 the
artillery opened fire, the shells dropping in
the Boer intrenchments with great pre-
cision. The attack was directed against
the Boer left. The firing continued until
sunset, mostly with artillery. although the
guards on the right fired at long-range
volleys. The Beers reserved their fire
until the British were returning to camp
In the darkness, when six shells followed
them. There were no casualties among
the British troops.

followed up the movement by shelling the

This news completely disposes of the
statement that Sir Charles warren's
force went in the direction Of Weenen, and
1t tends greatly to restore confidence in
Gen. Buffers tactics. The supposition that
he divided his forces into three columns
had given cause for anxiety. 1t is now
seen that such a view was erroneous, as
Gen. Buffers forces are concentrated.

The Boer Repulse at Lndysmfth.
The Standards vivid account Of the as
sault upon Ladysmith shows that the gar
rison was surprised, and that several times
the situation was critical. Out of de-
tachment of thirty Gordon highlanders
who surrendered, every man was wounded
says the correspondent. Curiously
enough, this is the first mention of the
capture of the highlanders. The Boer re-
pulse at Ladysmith wss the heaviest
counter stroke of the war.
No More Reinforcements.
The government is relaxing it's efforts
to send out reinforcements. 1t is quite
undecided as to when the Eighth division
will be shipped.
The war office declines the offer of a
third battalion of Northamptonshire mill

sent abroad. 1t seems probable that only
5000 instead Of 10000 yeomanry will be
mobilized.

derstanding that the buildings shall
remain the property of the Hawaiian
Government.
Councillor Gear thought there was
ample room to house the people now
n the present detention and relief
camps; but he thought it might be
better to accommodate them at some
place nearer the work they may find.
Yet he thought the Government
should not be hasty in building on the
and before it had reached definite
understanding about the ownership of
the buildings after the expiration of
the very short period of one year. If
no satisfactory arrangements could be
made, a relief camp might be erected
on some other Government land.
Minister Young stated that Mr..
Richards offers to sell the land in
question for $4,000.
Councillor w. G. Achi: ''The price is
too high; the land was sold only
year ago for $4,000. I believe we
should vote now for the appropriation
of $4,000, but the question of the own
ership of the houses should be first
settled. Until then no money should
be spent"
Councillor Robertson agreed with
Mr.. Achi. These people should have
clean quarters to go to. AS it is. the
people are herding together and have
no place to go. The matter is simply
business proposition for the Govern
ment to settle in providing for them.
He thought it was safe to vote the
amount of $4,000 asked for.
Councillor Gear said that nobody
could force the people from the de-
tention camp to go to the relief sta
lions; If they prefer to go to their rel
atives and friends. there they will go.
The Government should get lease OF
five years for the location at Vineyard
street; they should procure a similar
lease for the Punchbowl street camp
premises, with the privilege OF giving
up the lease at the end OF one year and
to remove whatever buildings might
have been erected.
Minister Young said he would at
tend to this part of the business, as
suggested.

beauty and the Bath,

THE complexion is one of the points
that are noticed first in a woman APP
pearance, writes Mrs. Humphry, in
The Ladies Home Journal, telling plain
women how they may be pretty. 1.-The
bath is a valuable aid to the necessary
purity of the skin, but, like all bene-
fetal processes it is liable to abuse.
The hot bath especially is misused to q
great extent. A warm bath, as distinct
from hot one, is seldom injurious, but
the safest is the tepid or the quite cold
one.
THE test is simple one. If after
cold bath, when the skin is dried, the
surface of the body glows with heat
and is sutfused with a pink tint, all is
well, but If this reactionary warmth
fails to respond to vigorous rubbing
with the towels the bath is injurious.
A chill often follows the hot bath.
which proves how dangerous it is. If a
chill follows the cold bath, it must be
abandoned at once and the tepid tried.
Much depends upon the circulation,
whether it be brisk or sluggish. If the
former, the cold bath may almost GER
tainly be ventured upon with uniform
ity and become daily delight. but if
the circulation be slow and defective a
large can of hot water should be added
to the cold.
''Only short time should be allowed
to the bath proper, whether hot, warm,
tepid or cold, but the drying process
should be thorough and vigorous
