A well known prtist of War saw, Poland has excited deep indignatisn toward the autho rities by his.vivid description of an innocent Polish lady per forming the mot arduous labor as an exile in Siberia. She was Mme. Gudzinska. The hard ships to which she was subject ed soon exhausted her physical powers when she died miser ably among the convicts. Mme. Gudzinaska's task amid the snow fog o/the severest Siberia weathe-rwas to wash out salt sacks in a hole cut through the thich ice of the river Aug ara. She was surrounded at her task by ordinary convicts. She was guarded by a Moham medan criminal who had been promoted to the position be cause he would not be likely to be lenient toward christian prisoners. Why 'had this angelic looking, lady been con demned Jd the Sibeian mines? Simply because a traitor to the Polish was stabbed before her house in Warsaw, though there was not the slightest.*jjroof of her complicity in this assas ination or even of her know ledge of it. The commandant who assigned the convicts t'o the various mines struck by the youth and beauty of Mine. Gudzinaska made her an offer of entering his domestic serv ice, where she Would live com fortable. She rejected his proposal with indignation pre ferring martyrdoom to my advantages at the hands'ot her tormentors. Badly clothed., badly fed and exposed to all the rigors of the terribV Siberia climate, this brave Polish lady endured all her tortures witli a noble patience and the £reat',,-J firmness until her physical powers gave way and she died in flower of her age."—Appeal to Reason. A Study in Boer Tactics. General C. H. T. Collis of New York formerly a commis sioner of public works there and a veteran of the civil war has made'a study of Boer tatv tips.- His theory is that by a concentration of"forces now'the Boers could easily compel the capitulation Ladvsmith, but that it would folly to d, this.:: ,• "While General White's army retrains tied up in Ladv smith,says General Colji's, "the relief of thatplarc .must continue to be the objective point of the British nriitv. General White is the toasted cheese with which the Boers have baited the t"apf and at every appr6ach to it there is cat." General Collis' opinion is fhn Geiieral Buller'slOPmy ought to move atound somewhere, in 'ct anywhere, so that the Boers would be in doubt of his purposes, and where they might .. have to come out and light to protect themselves. This viras the plan of operations adapted by General Grant in the VVilderness campaign! "'The Boers," continues Gen eral Collis,':are adepts in both grand and. minor strategy, and their tactics ore. unequiai*»d in the history of, warfare.' They thiew down the panritlet to Great Brition and then boldly moved into her territory and fortified themselves in impreg nable positions. That is what I call grand strategy.' They made "England believe 'that they had and no army rtr moder'n appliances of war, and their cannon, rifles, powder and general equippment are Su perior to anything on record. That Ts what I' call minor .strategy. They" have ambus caded every column which has Attacked them. That is tactics." General Collis' opinion is that the Britisti cannot out manduver the Boers in the mountains tint "that -latter a or so of fighting the con fdrceo will hav^ to to terms or theifte will be intervention by some other -for humanity's sake: This long distance opinioi may not be Worth anythlugt tfltt it is interesting.—Kimjea ^Jburnal. ,,",r •. y.. :,v.
