The last week has been marked with
at least two noteworthy eamoles Of
these Boer tactics. The first was at
Korn Spruit. east of Bloemfontein,
where crack British organization
walked into a shrewdly constructed
Beer trap with disastrous results
Close upon that came the affair at
Reddersburg, forty-five miles south Of
Blomfontein, where FIVE companies of
British troops werebagged by the
Beers. Now comes the report of Beer
activity in force at Wepner That is
sixty miles or more southeast of
Bloemfonetin, in the angle formed by
The Caledon river and the Basutoland
boundary. A commensurate was cred
tied last week to the British when
Lord Methuen killed or captured the
whole of a Boer force at Boshof, kill

had been, it is said, the stragetic gen

him which we imagine does injustice
