    "GOD SAVE THE QUEEN.”
English Milan Who Vocalliitd Their
LoTtlt; While Fighting Vainly.
Maurice Gifford sends to the Pall
Mall Budget the following account
Of how Major Wilson and his party
met their fate in their attempt to
capture Lobengula. Mr. Gifford ob
tained the information from an In
duce of the Insuka regiment who
was present at the engagement. On
Major Wilson and his party return
ing with Captain Borrdw’s ro-enforco
ments to the king’s scherm in the
morning they were recolvod by a
volley from part of tlio Inguba and
Imbisu regiment, who had orders to
take up their position on the road
by which Major Wilson and his party
would return. On receiving the
volley Major Wilson retired into the
bush toward the river, but he found
his party surrounded on all sides by
natives numbering from 2,500 to 3,000
at the very least The orders from
the Indunas to their men were that
on reaching Major Wilson’s party
they were to shoot the horses first
This order the Matabele proceeded
to carry into effect Major Wilson’s
party keeping up a heavy fire all the
time. The horses, which Major
Wilson had tied together in a ring,
were soon all shot. The Englishmen
then lay down behind them and kept
up a steady fire with Buch a good ef
fect that they succeeded in driving
off the Matabele for a short time,
but re-enforceraents arriving from
across the river, and, as far as Mr.
Gifford could gather from the In
duna, the fight must have lasted
some three hours. A number of
soldiers were seon to be wounded,
and their ammunition began to run
short. Then the natives gradually
crept closer, shooting anyone they
could. The Induna describes Major
Wilson most accurately by his dress
and the hat he wore, and states that
he was wounded in several places
and covered with blood, while an
other wounded man stood by his side
loading rifles and handing them to
him. Major Wilson and his men
fought desperately to the very last
The Induna said that as the supreme
moment came the Englishmen who
were still able to rise stood shoulder
to shoulder, took off their hats, and
joined in a song, the kind of a song
that he, the Induna, had heard mis
sionaries sing to the natives. The
Matabele then rushed up, and while
the men were singing what we sup
posed to have been ”God Save the
Queen,” they were overwhelmed by
the natives and assegaled. The In
duna estimated that the Matabele
lost eight to every one of the thirty
four white men killed, and said that
Lobengula’s warriors lay round the
dead white men like grass.
POLICE ITEM.
1M Superintendent Thought ne \r»
Too Energetic to Salt.
A determined-looking man, with a
nose like the beak of a hawk, a bad
eye, and built all the way up from
the ground like a bank safe, applied
to Superintendent Byrnes for a po
sition on the police force. He said
he was from Texas and out of em
ployment, according to the Tammany
Times ”
“Do you think you can make ar
rests. and guard prisoners so that
they will not escape while you are
bringing them to the station house?”
ashed the superintendent.
The applicant smiled a smile that
made even the superintendent feel
uncomfortable. It was a combina
tion Rlohard ILL and Othello in the
last act smile.
“If you had six prisoners, and one
\ was to escape, would you leave the
five and follow up the fugitive?"
“Certainly I would; but I would
shoot the other five first.”
“You will not do,” replied the su
perintendent. “You are too. tough
for New York."
The Two Magnetic Pole*.
Some time during the latter half oi
1898 we gave a "Curious Note” en
titled "The Two North Poles”—a
short disquisition on the difference
between the geographical and mag
netic North Poles. Close investiga
tion of the phenomena of magnetism
1 has proven that the North and
South magnetic poles are neither
identical with the geographical
poles, but that they are in the neigh
borhood of the earth’s axis of rota
tion. In the case of the north mag
netic pole the exact location is well
known—at 97 degrees west longi
tude and 79} degrees north latitude.
The location of the south magnetic
pole is not known to a certainty, but
is believed to be near 150 degrees
east longitude and 75 degrees south
latitude.—St Louis Republic.

FINANCIERING.
A Street Car President With an Kye to
BdiIumi.
One of Spokane's bank presidents
lias a habit of taking an airing each
evening on the front end of a street
car, absorbing ozone and throwing oft
the cares of business while chatting
with tho motorman. The other night
lie met a genius and his match. The
story was too good to keep and finally
leaked out, and is told as follows:
After the usual exchange of cour
tesies the motorman said:
“Mr. Blank, you consider yourself a
financier, I suppose.”
“Yes,” replied the banker, “I guess
I am, or I could not hold my job.”
“Well, you don’t know anything
about financiering,” the motorman
made bold to state. “But my boss,”
referring to the president of the
street car company, “is a first-class
financier, he Is. Why, do you know
that every Sunday he advertises for a
servant, and Monday twent3' or tjiirtr
girls ride out to his house, near the
end of the line, to get tho place, but
find madam can't see them, so they
ride back, and repeat tho journey
several timos before they are finally
told that the old girl has decided to
stay awhile. Now, that's financier
ing. Fifty cents paid out for adver
tizements and $8 or $0 taken in for car
fares to swell the annual dividends of
the boss’ company.”
The banker saw the point, told the
story on his friend, and now the
"boss” is looking for that particular
motorman with blood in his eye.
DIVINE WRATH.
So the Mexlcana I.ook Upon Smallpox
Visitation.
The poor and ignorant class of Mex
icans have an uncanny religions super
stition about Gmallpox. On a recent
visit to the interior of Mexico I saw
mothers carrying around in their arms
babies whose little bodies were almost
eaten up by smallpox. 1 was, of
course, shocked at the frightful spec
tacle, and even offered one deluded
mother money if she would take her
terribly afflicted child home and call
in a physician to attend to it. But
she refused my proffer with scorn and
began to croon gome weird incan
tation as she tenderly caressed the
little half-clad sufferer in her arms. I
afterward learned that the ignorant
class of Mexicans consider an out
break of the red pest in their misera
ble hovels a visitation of divine wrath
for some sin they have committed. So
set are they in this belief that they
will do nothing whatever to check the
ravages of the disease, except, when
it attacks their infants, to take the
victims in their arms, press them
closely to their breasts and pray de
.voutly and continuously to God to for
give them for their wickedness. Of
course the small-pox runs its course
after awhile, though never before
claiming several members of every
family as victims, but not until it
does are the afflictod parents purged
of their sins.
MRS. CHILDS.
Sh. Will Build a Flue Residence In Wash
ington and I.lve There.
Washington is to gain one of Phila
delphia's well-known residents, Mrs.
George W. Childs, widow of the great
philanthropist and editor, has decided
to make her permanent home in that
city.
She intends to have a house there
which' will be exactly suited to her
taste, and, therefore, she will build
one. She has secured a fine building
lot, which is located on the north
side of K street, between Fifteenth
and Sixteenth streets. It adjoins on
the east the spacious residence of
Senator Hale, at the corner of Six
teenth and K streets, and is in a
locality of the fine residenees. The
lot has a frontage of 53 feet and an
average depth of 119 feet to a thirty
foot alley. It contains 6,407 square
feet and the price paid was $38,883,
which is at the rate of $3 per square
foot. It was owned by John F. Cook
and others, ami the price obtained
was the one at which the lot has been
offered for a year or two back.
It is understood that the erection of
a large and spacious residence by
Mrs. Childs will bo begun at the
earliest practicable day.
Mot Used to the Highest Society.
Roger, the celebrated French tenor,
on one occasion was engaged for the
sum of fifteen hundred francs to sing
at the house of a rich financier. Roger
sang his first song magnificently; but
no one paid him the slightest atten
tion, and the guests talked their loud
est. Presently the host thought the
time had come for another song, and
sent for Roger. Ho could not be
found, and that evening was seen no
more. Next day a note came from
him, accompanied by the sum of two
thousand francs. The note ran thus:
“I have the honor to return the fifteen
hundred francs which I received for
singing at your party; and I beg leave
to add five hundred francs more for
having so greatly disturbed the con
versation of your guests.”
Street. Cleaning.
There are some towns in Europe
where they make money out of the
street cleaning, contractors bidding
for the privilege for what they can
make in selling the refuse to farmers
for fertiliser. In Mexican towns they
have scavengers enough to keep the
streets clean, and it doesn’t cost them
a cent. They keep swarms of turkey
buzzards. You can't drop a crust or a
piece of banana peeling but these fel
lows have it in a second. No one is
allowed to disturb or drive them
away. A fine is inflicted on any one
molesting them. This protection has
made them as tamo as so many lap
dogs, and they stand around on the
curbstones all day long, waiting for
what they can pick up.
SPLENDID HORSEMEN.
Magyar C'alkot Equally Accomplished
With the American Cowboy.
Picturesquely urrayed in a white
linen, wide-sleeved smock or shirt,
ombroidored in vivid colors, in loose
white zouave pantaloons, tucked iuto
high boots, and with a’ bunch of
puszta grass and a peacock’s or her
on’s feather in the band of his wide
brimmed hat, the Magyar Csikos pre
sents the Kuropean counterpart of
the North American cowbpy, or the
South American guacho and of the
African Bedaweon. His life, says a
writer In the New York Tribune, is
spent on the vast “puztas” or prai
ries of Hungary in tending the great
herds of semi-wild horsep, the breed
ing of which constitutes one of the
most profitable and staple features
I of Magyar industry. While the sum
I mer lasts he often suffers thirst—
that thirst which is one of the ter
rors of prairie and desert life—while
his food, which he carries about
with him in the little two-wheeled
canvas-covered cart, which is his
only dwelling place,’ frequently gives
out, and he has to wait for many
days sometimes before the purveyor
of the Csikos comes on his round to
replenish the stock of all the scatter
ed members of this strange brother
hood. Courageous, robust, indiffer
ent to both extreme cold and over
powering heat, the Csikos is, as a
rule, of middle height, with well
cut features, a dark skin, bright and
intelligent black eyes and the long
pointed mustache known through
out all Europe as “la moustache
liongrolse. ”
Ho wields the lasso with just as
much mastery as does the guacho,
and, to my mind, surpasses both the
latter and the Western cowboy in
horsemanship. A perfect rider, he
breaks in the colts belonging to his
hord without the assistance of either
curb, saddle, rein, bit or whip; sim
ply slinging a rope halter over the
young animal’s head, he conquers
him by the iron pressure of his mus
cular legs and the magical skill with
which he poises his body on the back
of the fretting, curvetting steed.
The employers of the Csikos are the
emperor and the great nobles. One
of the favorite pastimes of the Aus
trian, and especially of the Hungar
ian, aristocracy, is horse-breeding
on a most extensive scale. About
four-fifths of the horses of the im
perial cavalry come from Hungary,
and it is estimated that with
the present breeding stock that
country could export from 60,000 to
60,000 horses annually. These Hun
garian horses are very strong, with
great stamina, and can stand fatigue
combined with short rations better
than most horses bred elsewhere,
while as cavalry mounts they are un
surpassed. The oldest and largest,
stud farm in Hungary is Mezzohe
gyes, which comprises 40,000 acres.
It was founded as a royal stud in
1785, and hero for more than a cen
tury various well established types
of horses have been formed by cross
ing different breeds, by the effect of
climatic conditions, food, etc. In
Hungary alone there are in all 150
private stud farms—a very good
proof indeed that the government
horse-breeding establishments by no
means interfere with individual en
terprise.
Three Lofty Lakes.
The most elevated bodies of water
in the world are the several lakes
situated in the Himalaya regions of
Thibet. Lake Manasarovara, which
bears the palm for being the loftiest
lake in the world, is between 19,000
and 20,000 feet above the level of
the Indian Ocean. Two other Thib
etan lakes, those of (Jhalamos and
Surakol, are stated to be 17,000 and
15,400 feet in altitude respectively.
For many years it was supposed that
Lake Titicaca, South America, a
body of water covering 4,500 square
miles, and with a maximum depth of
924 feet was “the lake with the
greatest altitude."

Some of our boys, we hear, called at
the home of the “Twin Editor” to con
gratulate him on his success and wish
him happiness. They entered the back
door and sat upon the table, and when
asked to come into the parlor, they
would not move. The editor then
went to bring them chairs, and when
he returned they were gone. Looking
out of the door he saw a broken fense

A Word to Careless Girls.
Margaret M. Halvey in June Dona
hoe’s: Man? of us know the girl who
hastening to class or lecture, leaves at
home an untidy room, open-lidded
boxes, bureau drawers suggestive of
compressed earthquake, bookcase doors
swinging in eminent risk of demolition;
who litters hall-stand and vestibule with
discarded gloves and crumpled memo
randa, whose belongings are distributed
indiscriminately through every room,
regardless of ownership. She, evident
ly. “waits to help,” but is she preparing
herself meanwhile for the prospective
service?
Many of us know the patient mother
who moves along in the track of this
household hurricane to remove the
debris, rearrange the surrounding, close
a box, smooth a glove, clear stand and
table of encumbrances, and make fast
the door that endangers the precious
volumes it is supposed to guard as well
rs the physical safty of some junior
member of the family.
I like to tell young people of a simple
rule my mother enforced, the helpful
ness of which it took me years to
realize: “Never leave a room without
noticing whether there is not something
there which belongs, or is likely to be
needed, Nin another part of the house
and will eventually have to be carried
there.”
It is astonishing how rarely you find
yourself going from room to room empty
handed if you observe this rule, and
how many steps you safe somebody who
needs to have steps saved.
