heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is

picture the Beers as utterly demorallzed
and disheartened by Lord Roberts unex-
pectedly rapid advance and by his over
turn of the carefully prepared positions OF
the Beers. There was practically no fight

give respecting the occupation of Kroon-

1t appears that the Beers at Kroonstad
had been reinforced by 800 men from Natal
last Friday, and that altogether 10000
with twenty guns trekked from Kroonstad
on the approach Of Lord Roberts
The Beers made an Intellectual stand at
Boechrand and had elaborate intrench
ments in front of Kroonstad, which offered
great facilities for rear guard action,
Their only anxiety, however appears to
have been to get away safely with all their
guns and conveys, which again They have
successfully accomplished. The few stores
they were unable to carry away they

President Steyn is represented as having
