THE AFRICAN CAMPAIGN
It Has had a Curious Effect up
on Some of the British
General Officers.
VERY FEW HAVE WON LASTING LAURELS
GEN. Buffers Official FeIO de Sc Dis
cussed - Public Dissatisfaction
with Progress in South Africa
Due to the Optimistic Prophets
Predictions.

London, Oct. 13.-The South African
campaign has a curious effect on Brit
ish generals. Public attention is cen.
tered on Gen. Buffers extraordinary
exhibition, while society is gossiping
about the remarkable action of an
other general. This one is a knight
commander of the Bath, holding a
high command in South Africa. He is
over SO years of age, has been a wild
over for two years and has engaged
himself, by letter, to marry a woman
of so whom he has not seen for 90
years. The .bride-elect, who is an
Irish woman, is preparing to go out to
South Africa.
As for Gen. Butler, he seems to have
forever shattered every vestige of his
reputation.
He Had Received Hints.
A press representative learns that
previous to Gen. Buffers speech of
Thursday he had received several
plain hints from the war Office ex-
pressing the hope that he would not
accept invitations to make speeches.
His appointment to the command of
an army corps was made in a spirit
of generosity. 1t was thought that
Gen. Butler could not do much harm
in the two years remaining before he
retired
Days of Sinecures Passing.
One of the highest officials o II
nected with the administration of the
army is quoted as saying:
1.-THE utilitarian spirit of the age
has taken away those sinecures, such
as governor of Tilbury and command
er-in-chief of Berwick, with which, a
hundred years ago, Butler might be
shelved and at the same time reward
ed. We had no alternative but to re
ward Gen. Buffers long and conscien-
tious period of service by kicking him
out or giving him a command that his
rank demands. Of the two evils we
chose what we thought was the least.
Our justification is perhaps somewhat
sentimental, but no army can be u
without a certain amount of senti-
ment.
Optimistic Prophets mi
"As for the public dissatisfaction
with our progress in South Africa, l
fear that Lord Roberts and other OPP
timistic prophets are. Internationally,
more to be blamed than any one else.
No one got up and said the Burmah
war was over, or hat it would be
over in a foolishly short time. 1t
lasted nearly four years, and the
British public took it is a matter OF
course. The South African war has
probably got another two years to
run, developing, like the Burmah af-
fair, into a s~ubalterns' campaign.
Faith in Kitchener.
To supervise such work we know
of no one better than Lord Kitchener.
His chief difficulty, which seems to
have missed the attention of the crit
les, is that, having non-combatant
natives populating the war area, he
is prohibited from destroying sup
plies to any degree of military thor
oughness. If we could concentrate or
deport the natives I think an effective
devastation would quickly end the
campaign.

HER LIFE IS I'm DANGER.
Appeal to the People of America
In Behalf OF Miss Ellen
81. Stone.

Boston, Oct. 12.-The misunder-
standing existing in various parts Of
the country, indicated especially in
private advices received here, as to
the of the fund to ansom
Miss Stone, the missionary, is consid-
cred to be sufficient reason for the
issuance of another appeal for funds
by the clergymen who signed the
first one. The idea is to impress upon
the people of America the danger
which still threatens Miss Stone.
The second appeal follows:
Boston, Oct. IL, 1901.
"To the People of America:-The
promptings of our hearts compel us to
issue a second urgent appeal to h
people of America to come to
the rescue of Miss Ellen NJ.
Stone, the American missionary now
held captive by brigands in the
Balkan mountains for a ransom of
$4,000. Nearly one-half that sum is
yet to be raised.
Private advices received yesterday
were to the effect that it was abso-
lutely necessary to raise the full
amount at once. The story of a 30
days respite is absolutely discredited
in the best-informed circles.
"To-day's information from Wash
ington is that. the outlook is far from
being so reassuring as was hoped yes
terday.
THE public should not be deceived
by the idea that the American board,
as such, will pay any of the ransom.
1t has officially declared that it could
not, although its members have unan-
imously expressed sympathy with the
movement.
"Win not pastors, tender-hearted
women, patriotic men and representa-
tives of commercial and financial
activity everywhere; will not every
one aid by giving and soliciting until
the entire fund is in hand.
"a life is at stake, the life of a
Christian, a missionary, a patriot and
a noble American.
"All contributions should be sent
direct to Kidder, Peabody & Co., lis
Devonshire street, Boston, or Barring,
Magoun & Co, Is Wall street, New
York.
"All money contributed will be re-
turned to the donors in case its use
is not necessary or in h event of its
being hereafter returned by Oh
