All the nations engaged in the
mighty struggle in Belgium and the
north Of France are silent .as TO- ac-
tual happenings in that battle-scar-
red zone. So far as known there has
been little progress on either side,
but from accounts flltering through
from various sources, this stern en-
gagement, which has been going on
incessantly for several days, may be
characterized as the fiercest of the
whole war.
Thousands upon thousands of Ger
man reinforcements have been added
to the great masses OF troops endeaY-
oring to force their way to the north
ern ports of France.
1t Is said this ceaseless pushing
forward OF vast bodies of German SOL
diers Is by direct order of the en-
peror, whose eye is fixed on England,
against which an early campaign is
considered among the possibilities,
provided q suitabel base can be found
from which to direct the forces.
Similarly the Allies have been
strongly reinforced and among the
new troops at the front are the Brit
ish Indians, who. according to all
accounts, have been bearing them-
selves well.
A new rebellion in the Union of
South Africa has given cause for anx-
tety both to the British and the South

The extent OF this rising is not

can government has issued n procla-
nation to the people calling for their
assistance and has taken measures to
quell the rebellion.
