LORI) ROBERTS' REPORT.
Mounted Canadians Fighting for
SeVen Days Out of Ten.
The War °thee haa received the fol-
lovving report from Lord Roberts:
" General Hamilton met with con
siderable success on Tuesday, and
drove the enemy out of the stron
position they bud Laken up at Hout
nek, with comparatively small loss t
us, The Boers dispersed in severe
direttions, mainly to the east an
north, leaving six pgisoners in ou
hands, including one commandant an
sixteen other wounded men.
"General Hamilton ire now in cam
at Jacoterust As the men needed res
eater fighting seven out of the lan
ten days I ordered them to halt Lo
to -day.
Gen. Broadwood's brigade of cav
*airy arrived upon the scene in time to
slated valuable assistance by threat
ening the enemy's rear.
"During the afternoon General Ian
Hamilton was joined by General Bruce
Hamilton's brigade of infantry.
" Tbe enemy cedilla having twelve
killed and forty wounded yesterday.
Among the former was Lieut. Gun -
Uwe a German officer belonging to
the 55th Regiment, and amongst the
latter was Maximoff, the Russian com-
mander of the Foreign Legion. Twen-
Ty-one out of fifty-two a Lhe enemy's
ortsualties occurred among the mem-
bee of that legion. Two Frenchmen
were among the killed.
General Hamilton speaks in high
terms of the good servioes performed
by the Eighth Humors, under Colonel
Clowes, and made up into a regiment
of Lancers, which came into General
Broadwood's brigade end assisted in
making the Boers vacate their posi-
tion.
The final stroke to the enemy's
rout was given by the Gordons and
two eampenies of the Shropshire, Light
Infantry, who cheered loudly when
they got within two hundred yards
of the position. Kitchener's Horse is
also spoken of M terms of praise."
A DEADLY VOLLEY.
CANADIANS AND GORDONS.
Together They Stormed a Hill Held
by Boers.
A de4atch 1from Thaba Nohu, Tues-
day, says :—Geaseral Hamilton's envie-
- ion wee engaged yesterday and to -day
in forcing a passage northward. At
g Houtnek the Boer front held a line ot
- hills commanding the sides of the
o nek, The Canadians and Gordons at -
1 tacked the hill to the left, and the
d Shropshires and Mairshalre'llorse, sup -
✓ ported by a battery, also made an at-
• tack on the enemy, who eventually
' fled, leaving m.any wounded, and the
p passage was cleared.
t , The Boers on the mountain are now
t libelling the outlying camp, necessi-
T tating removal to a safer place.
el The Boers have three guns on the
hill to the eastward of this place, out-
- side the range of the British artillery.
The Boer shelling is not doing any
damage. The enemy retain their posi-
tions, and the British are not intemPt-
ing to dislodge them.
General Hamilton, hy reaching Bout: -
teak after a full day's fighting, se-
cured tha :Chiba Nthu-Bloemfontein

Gen. Boyne' Mende was prepared on
Sunday to attack the long ridge run-
ning from Thaba helm mountain west-
ward, but owing to some delay dusk
fell, and the troops were withdrawn
without any assault having been
made on the hill. The top of the hill
is strongly held, but its capture is im-
portant. There was a general recon-
naissance during the morning, and a
strong reconnaissance to the eastward
around the horseshoe of the hills. Gen-
eral Tan Hamilton's division to the
north is operating jointly with the
Gordons and oavalry to the south.
General Dickson, commanding the
cavalry brigade, encountered 3,000
burghers marching in two columns,
with guns, •and after some shell fire
the British were obliged to retire be-
hind their pickets.
Garrison at Mafeking Waited for
the Boers' Attack.

tory it large force, commanded by
Oronje, the younger, including the
German corps, advanced olose to Fort

"The garrison lay low until the
Boer forms were at close ranee, when
they fired a volley, killing five and
wounding many, and the attack was
repulsed. The bombardment then
teased. The Boers, under a Rad Croes
flag, were permitted later to recover
their dead."

Newspapee ediqirs are almost as doctors and other medicines were
soeptical as the average physician on
the subject of new remedies for sick

editor or a doctor to seriously consider
the merits honestly claimed for
medicine.
Hundreds of testimonials of won-

began to prescribe this great remedy
