London, Feb. 13.-As the conviction
grows in Great Britain that the war
will be long, the efforts fOT providing
for the sick and wounded and the fami-
lies of the soldiers at the front, are re-
doubling. There is scarcely woman in
England who, in addition to making ar

and in the hospitals is not working for
and contributing to some social fund.
Mrs. Arthur Paget's entertainment

families of the household troops, in
which her husband is a colonel of the
Scots guards; the mansion house fund
exceeds G690,000; the Daily Telegraph
fund amounts to e119,00O and the Daily
Mails totals G77 coo. These amounts
cover only the larger London funds
and do not include numerous provincial
funds of large amounts being raised to
equip volunteers.
The equipment of the YOemanry hos

the hospital going for six months and
have issued an appeal to the British

THE Beer army is barred from the

on the road by Boshof it would be eX-
posed to a flank attack during the

General Cronje, en- learning of Lord
Roberts dispositions on Tuesday and
yesterday. must nave had an interest
ing problem. He had to consider
whether to hold on to mis- position at
Jacobsdal, at Magerstfontein and to
seize Kimberley, or to raise The siege
and move off-and, if so, in what diTec-
ton, whether to BloemfOntein or north
ward across the wall.
These events form the brilliant open
lie; of a new campaign which is being
marked by concentration of purpose
and by an energy and rapidity that
augur we'll for the future. The public
must wait patiently for the result of
those operations, remembering that the
