Buston, chief engineer of the Army Corps, shows in this new memorandum, which he issues on behalf of Sir John French, how the Japanese infantry made their famous rushes. The Aldershot troops are to study the methods of perfect field cover as used by the Japanese in advancing to, the at- tack. This important meniorandum is as follows:-
The main lessons to be gathered from a study of the fold engineering work carried out during the late war between Russia and Japan, as far as concerns the infantry, are, I think, first, that' cách ́infanity, soldier must be provided with an entrending tool, secondly, that he should be as expert in the use of his entrenching tool as he is

It seems to me that the work the infantry soldier may be called on to perform in the future may be roughly divided into two heads, the "offensive" and "
"defen-sivo."
pros
The "offensive" is what,
to the up sent, I do not think we have ever practis. ed; and perhaps the following extract from General Kuropatkin's instructions to the Russian troops may serve to niake my meaning clearer. He says of the Japanese infantry :-
Thoy advance in widely extended order; the firing line advance at the doublé for a short distance, and then lie down and begin to dig. Notwithstanding our extremely heavy fire, they again'double forward, lœv- ing their half-constructed trenches, and begin to dig new ones. The supports then double forward, occupy the first trenches and complete them; when the firing line (ODOWN_No. 3, NEW PRAYA, Kenadvances from the second line of trenches,

value. The Russians, however, learnt by HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS
experience, and we find that at Shou-shan-
pu and Liao-yang the trenches, though of the same type, murged gradually into the hill sides, and were carefully covered with
groen sods, so as to be as inconspicuous as possible. In taking up a position it will not be sufficient just to dig the ordinary shelter trench; this is what the Russians didnt Fenlin and Yushulin; they had had 48 hours to entrench themselves, and might in this time have made a very strong position; but they were content to con- struct shallow shelter tronches, and the result was that when attacked they had to evacuate them.
The infantry soldfør must realise that to be successful he must make his position as strong as possible-first, by digging his -helter trench, and making it as incon- spicuong as possible by covering it with boughs or grass or whatever grows on the Surrounding land, military pits must be dug in front, barbed wire and other obstacles put up where material is available, bomb- proof shelters must be erected in rear of his position, and commununicating trenches constructed to them, in fact, from the moment he takes up a defensive position he must make up his mind to work hard, und to do all that hard work and skill can do to make his position as impregnable as possible. In the late war it was generally found that an entrenched position with good obstacles in front was practically un- assailaleb by day.

After leaving the Convalescent "Home the dreadful pilea returned again, and I found myself again obliged to take to bed, as I could not stand, and I was worn to skin and bone.

I found the Bile Beans were clearing all traces of the piles away beautifully, and at the same time making me brighter and better in myself in every way. I continued taking Bile Beans, and gradually got rid of the troublesome piles, which were finally banished altogether, I am now free from pain and thoroughly well, am able to work hard and with enjoyment. All this I owe to Bile Beana;'

Cónsus To Be Ta
Takon,
The statement made at a recent meeting of the Sanitary Board that 60,000 Chinese have left the Colony in consequence of the operation of the Public Health and Build- ing Ordinance has catised a great deal of discussion. There are a large number of people who hold that this is an exaggera. tion, and in fact that although a number of people may have gone away that there has been nothing in the shape of an exodus.
The Governor has apparently takon the matter up, for it is stated on very good authority that a sensus of the Colony is, to be taken shortly, in order to ascertain the population and have something definite to work upon.
It is only about five years since the last census was taken and in the
present instance the water population will not be included. The police will no doubt take the consus as in provious years.
THE MARKET PRICE LIST.
Reply to Mr Hooper's Questions. The President of the Sanitary Board (Hon. Dr Frances Clark) answered the questions asked by Mr A. Shelton Hooper rogarding the market price list at this afternoon's meeting of the Board. The answers were as follows:-
the Inspector of Markots, has existed since 1867, which was many years before the Sanitary Board came into existence.
Q-If not, by whom is the Inspector authorised to obtain and publish it?
A.-The authority no doubt came from tho Government originally.
Q.-Is the information paid for by the newspapers, or are the newspapers paid for publishing it?
A.~No. Q.- so, how sach is paid and by
whom?
A.-I understand that the guild of poultry dealers pays 82 per month to one of the newspapers for copies of the list, so far as it relates to poultry and gamo.
Q. How does the Inspector obtain the
information?,
