GENERAL KITCHENER MAKES AN OFFICIAL
REPORT ON THE SUBJECT.

London. July 2I.-"The Daily Mali publishes
Lord Ktchener's official report regarding the
Vlakfontein affair, which is as follows:
Lieutenant w S. B. Duff has given me the
following information: On the day after the
fight at Vlakfontein on May %, Lieutenant
Hearn told him that. while lying on the ground
wounded, he saw about twenty yards from him
Lieutenant Spring and Sergeant Findley, both
slightly wounded. They were binding up each
others wounds when a young Boer. with a
pink puggaree around his hat. came up and
shot both dead. Lieutenant Hearn lay quite
still. The Beers. thinking him dead, contented
themselves with taking his spurs and legSings.
Lieutenant Hearn also said that others of our
wounded shot by Beers.
Lieutenant Duff collected the testimony of
eight privates and non-commssioned officers
who affirmed that they saw Beers shoot our
wounded.
Several of the men saw a Boer evidently some
one in authority. trying TO stop his men from
shooting wounded.
The foregoing is taken from Lord Kitcheners s
first mail report the subject. He has wired
that he would supplement it by sworn testi-
mony.

Now we have always been very
quiet when Welch made boasts of
their great volume of business for

yet when the railroad agent who,
by the way, is one of our most re-
spected and truthful citizens, makes

A PROTEST

From "a Baptist" Because of Lack
of Interest in Church Work.
Reapers, oh reapers, why idle so long
The day is fast waning, the night
cometh on;
The sun high in heaven a warning
| should be
We are all fast approaching an eter-
nifty.
Reapers, oh reapers, the harvest is
white,
Come, thrust in your sickle; don't
wait for the night.
The Master is calling; your work is
not done:
Awake from your slumbers! Come on,
OH come on.
These lines were suggested to
my mind last Sunday while listen
ing to Brother Patterson deliver an
eloquent discourse. He said che
had worked hard to give to his
people the very best and was
deeply disappointed to see so few
out. But it seems that some peo.
pie are content to let their pastor
bear their burdens for them while
they loaf on the street or lounge at
nome. Can a true Christian be
content by so doingP We all have
duty to perform; first to God,
hen to our pastor and charge. We
WELD an influence whether for
,ood or bad; if bad we alone are
esponsible, and it is certainly a
ad example these non-going
hurch members set. Sometimes
'e meet one who stays at home
undays because some one we dis.
ke very much won't stay at home.
Yell, God pity such an one."
Now, Mr.. Editor, if these lines Z
not find their way to the waste 4
aper basket may call again. Y
