London, April 5.-It looks to-
day as though the Beers had
conceived the audacious plan of
attempting to investigate Lord
Roberts at Bloemfontein, or at
least, to endeavor to delay his
northward advance by harrass
ing the British lines of commu-
uicatiOn.
On his side Lord Roberts is
concentrating his forces andpre-
pairing to take every advantage
of the bold but risky tactics o.
of the enemy. He is not likely
to strike at any other forces
until he is certain of delivering
a crushing blow.
The situation, IN the absence
of any official dispatches from
Lord Roberts, is both mystify
ing and interesting. There is
little doubt that Lord Roberts is
hampered by the necessity fol
remounts and transports, ant
the loss of the convoy guns ant
all of Col. Broadwood's baggage
was a serious matter. The BOer:
are now trusting to what the.
believe to be their superior mo
bility.
The special correspondents a
the front are now denouncin:
Lord Roberts policy of lenienc,
toward the Free Staters and ar
calling for an abandonment o
that policy.

NEW PUBLICATIONS.

Immediately upon her return from
Europe, last year, Mrs. Schuyler
Crowninshield began work upon a
society novel in which she designed &c
exploit some phases of life never before
touched in fiction. The book will
shortly he issued by Mcclure, Phillips
4 Co., and those that have read the
story say that it shows contaminated
know ledge Nof the world and pene-
trating insight into human nature such
as only writer of very wide and ex-
eeptional social experience could have
possessed. The entire back ground is
genuine; the scene being laid in an
abbey which belongs to Madame Juliet
Adam, late editor of the Nouyelle Re
view. Madame Adam has not only
given Mrs. Crowninshield permission to
use the abbey as the ground work of
her story, but she has accepted the
dedication of the book in charming
letter TO the author. It is needless,
perhaps, to say that the course of the
story was not run in Madame Adams
abbey, but we have the authors word
that the main plot is founded on fact.
Mrs. Crowninshield says that the
criminal part Of the plos involving, as
it does, the lives of several people, Is
all true, but she has taken care to
veil with fictitious names the real
actors Of the terrible drama. The story
is illuminated by novel love affair
and enlightened by representation of
living modern society. 1t possesses
many claims upon public attention.
