London, April S, 1 a. m.-Press accounts Of
the surrender Of the British garrison at Red
dersberg still meagre and unsatisfactory
General Roberts reports that the Boer force was
1920 strong. with five guns and that the British
garrison included 591 men. of whom Il were
either wounded or killed. While the British in
fantry We're outnumbered the losses do not in
ticate desperate fighting. The force was with
out artillery and surrounded and exposed
70 enfiading fire. IT is clear that the Beers
are not in great force, but are bent upon NOV
ing rapidly from one exposed point to another
and swooping down upon defenceless detach-
ments Their tactics are excellent and it is not
easy for General Roberts % counteract them
The Beers by these raids can threaten the Brit
ish communications and harass greatly the su-
peTior force. yet always be able to retire TO the
eastern hills and to keep the door open for their
retreat northward TO Senekal. This is their best
expedient for deferring General Roberts's march
northward
The original plan Of campaign the Boer
side, as explained last October by sympathizers,
included these tactics, and described the district
from Wepener to Ladybramd and Senekal as
highly favorable for their employment. The
reE held in official circles is that General Rob
erts will not allow the Beers TO draw his forces
away from the railway line toward the noun
tains, but will send the bulk of his army north
ward. with the expectation that in this way he
will compel the raiders TO concentrate directly in
front.
Fresh details of General Methuen's little vic
tory indicate that General de Villebois Mareuil,
with a small force was scouting and recon
noitring with a view to conducting raiding
operations in the Kimberley district. The re-
port is confirmed that voey fired by the
Beers after they had raised the white flag, and
that several marksmen repeatedly used their
rifles after eurrenderng
The War Office gave out at midnight small
list Of casualties in Methuen's engagement but
there was nothing from General Roberts re-
spectng the raiding operations near Bloemfon-
tain There is complete silence from Natal and
only vague report of daily artillery fire be-
tween the two forces at Fourteen Streams. The
reason assigned semi-offciaIly for the inaction
OF Roberts and Butler is the delay in receiving
remounts, but this difficulty is now said to have
been overcome by the arrival at Cape Town and
Durham OF immense shipments OF horses from
Buenos Ayres and elsewhere. 1t is to be hoped
that the armies viii not become stiff from their

Filipinos Protesting Against Its
Introduction. They Fear
Intoxicated Soldiers.

Rev. Frank NJ. Wells, formerly chap
lain of the first Tennessee volunteers,
addressing the Baptist ministers of
New York, said the statements of
President Schurman as to the evils
from whiskey in the Philippines
were not eXaggerated-in fact, they did
not tell all that might be told. He
added:
Il have direct knowledge of the es-
innate which the Filipinos place upon
the American soldier. When he is in
toXicated they regard him as a very
bad man indeed. When they are sober
they regard them as clever and kind.
They really wish to take on American
ways, but their greatest objection to
American rule is that we have intro
duced whiskey into the island.
II know from observation and not
from heres;ry that there are 300 whis-
key saloons in Manila run by Ameri-
cans. My statements have been de-
MED by some officer, but | shall chal-
lenge an investigation
The situation is just about the same
in Cebu and IliOilO as in LuZOn. In the
city of Cebu pative women sit about
the streets with baskets full of bottles
of whiskey and they sell drinks to the
soldiers in cocOanut cups much as pea
nuts are sold in the street here.
Il ask that the administration shall
abolish the regimental canteen and
suppress the private whiskey shop.
Secretary Long stopped the sale OF
liquor in the navy and Secretary Root
can do the same in the army if he
wishes. General Otis will not permit
the American soldier to go into the
business in the Philippines when his
term establishment is up and he is
mustered out and if he can exercise
any such power at that surely he has
power to close the gin mills. The
president could do it by touching a
button

WHEN COMES EASTER7
Some DOUBT as to the Exact Day. Two
Possible.

Which is TIE true Easter day in
1900? Some people think Easter should
be kept on April % and not on April
10. The rule is: Easter Gay is always
the first Sunday after the full moon
which happens upon or next after the
DIST day Of March. and if the full
moon happens upon Sunday Easter
day is the Sunday after. The Rev.
Allen WhitwOrth, vicar Of All Saints,
Margaret street, who is an expert III
the matter. explains in The All Saints
Magazine that in order that the church
might not be dependent on future as
Economical calculations he adopted
set of rules by which to determine the
dates on which the full moon should
be assumed to fail. This fictitious full
moon can always be found in the ia
bles at the beginning of the prayer
book, and by the common consent OF
western Chr;stendom this tabular full
moon is used in the determination OF
Easter.
This wear the tables give Saturday.
April Il, as the date of the Paschal
full moon, but the actual moon in the
heavens is not full until 90 minutes
after mdnight-that is. the astronom-
zeal full moon falls on Sunday, April
Is. If we followed the astronomical
moon, Easter Sunday would be the
following Sunday. April %, but as we
accept the ecclesiastical moon we keep
Easter on the 10Th. 1t should, how
ever. be noted that the Jewish deter
mination of the Passover depended not
on the full moon. but on the fourteenth
day after the new moon. And the
Christian rule is founded on the Jew
ish. Now the ecclesiastical moon is
new On March 80 april II. so that
what is called the full moon lin the
prayer book falls correctly on the
fourteenth day Of the moon, though
the astronomical full moon just misses
that date.-LOnGOn News.
