FRED, WHISHAW. (Author of "Clutterbuck's Treasure," &e) Private Billy Harkness passed half the night before the battle in collecting subscriptions for what he called a "tontine" for those who were to take part in the frontal portion of the attack. There were to be about one hundred mou on gaged in that dangerous enterprise, about half company of Billy's own regiment, the Loyal Upshires and the same number of the Brockle hurst Rifcer

Billy's soheme caught on well enough, though many of those asked and willingt enter the toutine did not possess either the sovereign which he required of them or even half that sum. From those Hilly accepted an order for the money against the next instalment of pay due them. In this way, donations from officers and others, Billy collect

"You're right, Sir, it does seem so," Billy rapiled. But if they do get in, why, lord, they'll be glad enough to have got off with whole skius and to lot someone else take the pool?"

There was a kopje that stood in the way of the Bri.ish advance, like a lion in the path. The great rocky hill was firmly held by a strong commando of Boers, who had entrouched then- selves after their fashion, and had monated 25.veral guns to command the approaches,

The task entrusted to the hundred brave fellows selected for this enterprise was dangerous snoagh. It was like y to prove istal to most or all of those concera- el, aid that was why Billy Harkness thought of his tontine, and why his ingenions idea caught on among those about to take part in the affair.

The four young officers engaged commenced operations overnight by placing their handfi of men in skirmishing order under what little cover each man could find for himself at thres quarters of a mile from the kopje,

At dawn the guns from the British positions sholled the Boor camp with vigoar, as though preparing for a frontal attack in force, the little body of senttored men of the Upshires and Ri fles supported the illusion by pepparing the hill with immense energy from a hundred points, in such a manner as to lead the enemy to suppos they were being attacked by a very much larger force; while the troops engaged in the main movement made wide sweeps to right and left under good covor. So much for the battle, which wont ultimately in fivotu of the British. It is with the movements of the hundred or Bo of men engaged in the frontal stack that we are concerned at present.

The enemy replied to their fire with a facions Ensilade of shrapnel which searched the hiding places of our handful of subscribers to Billy's 406 tontine and killed or wounded a score of them before the men had advanced one inch from the position cach had taken up under cover of darkness.
