of Warren's reverse in Buffers dispatch

Of the place, leads to the belief that the
Beers led the English into a death trap.
Artillery was probably placed on the sur
rounding kopjes with which the Beers
poured a constant and calling fire into
Warren's garrison on the kop all day

English that they had to retire under

HOW KRUGER PREPARED.
Far-Sighted Boer Statesman Made
Ready for the War.

Ready for the War.
Never since the time when war was
chronic and universal has there been such
an example of foresight and preparation
as that offered by President Kruger. For
nearly twenty years the Boer statesman
was making ready for what his sagacity
told him was certain TO come. The dyna-
mite factories at Zorfontein were the Gre
alton of Kruger's brain. These factories
are easily the largest and finest of their
kind in the world. They were built and
planned by the hest German mechanical
experts. All their equipment is of Ger
man manufacture. and they are operated
by German and Dutch hands and by
Kaffirs. The factories lie between Pre-
toria and Johannesburg, and they can
turn out any kind of explosive known TO
science. Not less careful has Kruger
been in the fortificatiOn of Pretoria, mis-
capital city. The town itself is sur
rounded by tremendous forts, equipped
with the heaviest and latest artillery, Iii
the hands of competent Boer and Euro
pean officers and men. The only way III
which the invading army could take Pre-
toria would be to starve it into submls-
sion. But it will be marvellous army
that will reach within striking distance
of the city, The entire country for miles
around bristles with forts, while all avail
able passes are guarded and armed. In
Pretoria are thousands of trained soldiers
who have not yet been called into ser
vice. All these things are being learned
only now by Great Britain. When Presi-
dent Kruger predicted that the Beers
would be conquered at a price that would
appal the world, he was only calmly
thinking Of the preparations he had been
making TO sell his liberty as dear as
might be
