Christmas Is survival. an adoption
of the centuries old pagan festival of
the winter solstice celebrated during
the week preceding Dec. rs. 1t was q
season OF present-giving and good
cheer and that good will to man was
made practical, for quarrels were dis
continued, debts remitted. prisoners
liberated and absolute equality pre-
vailed among the people. This festi-
val was adopted by Christendom. and
modes of celebrating the day varied
as 1t spread into other climes and as
the tastes of the different peoples die
tated. In making the circuit Of the
seasons the sun reaches his lowest
point on Dec. 81, and for three days is
apparently stationary; on the 25th day
he begins to rise-is born again. The
Christmas legend is a very pretty one.
and when given its proper application
1t is very practical reality. ~

The Cape Colony Cabinet had an i'm

appears that the Beers have destroyed
a railway bridge ninety feet long,
about twelve miles south of De Aar,
and no Cape mails have arrived at
Bloemfontein for three days. So
Further anxiety has been caused In
Cape Town by the discovery that dur.
ing the last two months public bodies
In out of the way places have reluisi.
toned supplies of dynamite. The co.
lonial government Is now endeavoring
to recover possession of these ex.
plosives and is removing all stores OF
arms and ammunition from suspected
depots.
Other advices from Cape Town re.
port the Dutch element In Cape Colony
as greatly elated over the southward
passage Of the Beers and as Boosting
that the whole district of Victoria
West, will Join the raiders. 1t is sus-
pected in Cape Town that the force
travelling from Zootpan's Drift is not
a body of Beers. but one of Colonials.

London, Dec. 24.-Lord Kitchener's
dispatches, breathing confidence
hardly justified by their contents. are
almost the only available news from
the seat Of hostilities in South Africa,
but kilograms from Cape Town depict
the situation in anything but roseate
hues.
Without believing the assertion of
the Transvaai agency In Brussels, that
60OO Beers have invaded Cape Colony,
1t is quite evident that the invasion
was serious and well-planned affair.
In connection with this correspondent
sends an extremely interesting letter,
dated Bethulde, December 1st, describ-
ing General De Wet and his doings.
DE Wet has never been taken SER
iously enough, says the correspondent.
1T is Of little use to pursue him. as he
fights q rear guard action and gains
twenty miles while he is being fought.
"He is = born military genius, whose
wonderful powers have kept up this
phenomenal resistance.
