LIKE THE lRIsHMAN'S FLEE
b the Willy BOer. When Johnny
Bull Puts Ills Finger on Him,
He Isn't There.

When Roberts thought to capture
Cronje In his works at Meggersfontein,
he found neither Boer nor big guns
there. When Butler thought to cap
ture Joubert's army at Ladysmith, he
found the Beers had left, taking every
thing In sight. When Roberts expected
to capture the Boer army at Bloemfon-
fein, he found it had vanished. Then the
willy Boer began to pester the scatter
ed British forces south of Bloemfon-
tein, captured several small forces, and
besieged the British force at Wepener,
sixty miles southeast Of Bloemfontein.
"Now I've got them just where I want,
them," was evidently Lord Roberts
thought, and he sent forces in four di-
rections to prevent their escape and cap
ture them. Just before the gobbling
was to be done, the Beers slipped out o.
the trap, and trekked away to the
North, leaving nothing but the posi-
tions they had occupied. The British,
1t is said, are in pursuit, and the Beers
are said to be in sore straits, short o.
supplies, &C., but they will have plenty
of time to trek, unless the British get I
move on them.
Meantime, Roberts is said to hav'
gathered large army, immense sup
plies, and Is organizing large cavalr
force, for strong forward movement
Many BOers Of the Free State, VIII
went to their homes and took the oath
