The Buera are oonatructlog forts for the purpose of shelliUF Klinbeily, where Cecil Rhodes Is In trenched with les thau 1000 soldlera. His capture will probably follow, as a price has been placed on Rhodes' head. London, O 't 31 The greatet-t couaternatlou prevails In thla oily aud especially at the war department where news of a most disastrous character have arrived from the Transvaal. The war office hns just issued a bulletin admitting that the Hrltlsh forces of 15,000 soldiery at Ladysmith have been sur rounded by the Hoers. Whole regiments of Infantry and Ueueral Whito's Royal field artillery have been captured. Londou streets are scenes of greatest turmoil ever witnessed and the surprise of such stupeod ns defeat Is disheartening In Ita ellects on the populace. At the war office scene are no less quiet. Usually methodical and dignified officials are exoited forced to make the confession that such a disaster is Inexplicable. One of the prominent aec" retary'ssaid; "We have Inst heavily In many ways, had regi ments all but wiped nut, but to have whole regiments captured and by Uoere is terrible." The battle found about 16,000 English and 17,000 Boera la position. The British force waa disposed Id the following order: On the right three regiments of cavalry, four batteries vf the Royal field artillery and Ave battalions of infantry ; In the center three battallona of the Royal field artillery, two regiments of cavalry and four Infantry battalions, and on the left the Royal Irish fusiliers, the Ulouoestersblre regiment, aud the Tenth mountain battery. Hallowe'en. Hallowe'en, All Hallow Eve, a Nut- crack Night, are terms applied to the night of October 31. Its observance dates back to the time of the Druids, withwb"mit waa the night of the yearly harvest festival. Bonfires were lighted on the bill tops lu honor or the sun which bad ripened the baiveats. Later It came to be regarded as the time wheu supernatural Influences wereetpeolally potent, when fairies and elves peopled the forests and goblins and witches stalked abroati. the powers of darkness were believed to hold high carnival as the midnight hour approached, at the stroke or twelve the "eerie tribes" fled, to visit the earth no more until another year. Fires were regarded as a protection against the evil spirits. As late as the (Seventeenth century mention ia made or carrying lighted torches abroad to avert the disaster supposed to follow these supernatural, nocturnal visitors As a higher degree of Intelligence has prevailed, these superatlllona bave disappeared, and today, Hallowe'en Is regarded as simply a time for amuse ment, for fun and frolic. Various ancient and modern devices are em ployed through which Cupid may be prevailed upon to reveal the secrets of the mystic future. Was Not Alone.
