A MOHAMMEDAN MOB.
ADVENTURES OF AMERICAN SAILORS
AT ALEXANDRIA, EGYPT.
How They Ksrnpeil wltl Their I.lvrs
from tii I'ajiithin So;io (:ii Iteforo
tlio IJoiiibarduieiit by tlie Vck.1m jf
tho Itn-IUU I J. it.
"While lying at anchor ohT Alexandria dar
ing the few days previous to tho bombard
ment of that city by the vii 1 i of the lav
glish fleet undur command of Admiral fc-k-y-laour,
several cf our party who had iievt :
sciai the sights about tho phieo decided to go
ashore, hiro a curriae, and do tin; town r.s
thoroughly as the sunimer'B heat uud an af
ternoon would jic-raiit.
As wo drove up from tho landing thcro
seemed to bo a n:ueh larger crowd than
usual in tho streets and much more excite
ment than wo exacted. An employe of ono
of the stores at which wo had been accus
tomed to ileal, in fact tho house to which wo
wero consigned, seeing our party, caino r mi
ning toward our carriage to tell us that some
thing of an unusually serious character was
alKut to happen, and that tiiero was already
lighting in a neighboring street; that largo
numbers of soldiers had recently come in
from tho country; that the best, and, in
fact, tho only wise thing for us to do was to
return to our vcsseL As thcro waa always
some sort of a street row pcoing on we
thrtnked him for his kindness, told hita that
thus fur American hud been comparatively
freo from complications, and that us we had
como ushcro to see tho lhirg3 of interest wo
thought that we would keep on, particularly
as our road lay oufcado of tho city, where
wo would bo beyond tho troubles that
caused such great excitement.
After looking at I'ompey's Pillar and ono
or two other places of more or less interest,
all of which arc well described in tho com
plete guide to Alexandria and its surround
ings, we drove out to tho Khedive's garden,
where wo intended to pass the remaining por
tion of our stay ashore. "We found quite a.
number of officers, both American and Eng
lish, out at the gardon, all in uniform, w hi-h
latterly they had been obliged to wear when
over they came ashore, to guard agaiusfc tho
insults daily offered to foreigners, and hero
for tho first time wo had a comparatively
clear account of the troubles which termi
nated in tho horrible butchery already going
on in the city. Later in the day several men
in the party at the Khedi ves gardens that
beautiful summer afternoon, fell victims of
tho mob. Wo decided that the best thin,g
now to be dono was to jump into our car
riages, and, by taking tho shortest route, en
deavor to reach the landing, where wo hoped
to- find our boats.
Our carriage was fortunately not ablo to
leave until tho party of English ofaeers had
started, and as we drew near tho town it
was quite evident that wo wero in for some
thing very serious, ur.d tho aspect was rao'
thiag but pleading aa the other carriages
passsd into the crowd of yelling and gesticu
lating demons, through which they vainly
strove to force their v.-ay, only to have their
occupants dragged from their seats and
butchered in cold blood. The few who es
caped found refuge in. a gi?ard house close
by, whero they remained until after night
fall. As wo drew up wo were told by a man,
evidently interested in our well being, to
alight at cneo and follow hira. Tins time
discretion came to our aid, and, jumping out
of our carriage, we ran after our new found
friend up a side street, aad, alter making a
turn or two, found oarsaiva at the i-i.Io en
trance of the building iu which was tho store
of our business friend already allude I to,
the doors and windows of vl.ieh were al
ready erarefuliy barricaded. A few p-niad-iags
oil tho door resulted in a head being
cautiously put out of a window up Plairs,
and after its owner was assured that the
party below was of a friendly dispc.-it ion ii
was withdrawn. In a few moments the bar
ricades were removed and tbo door opened
juat far enough for us to squeeze throng'!: i'i
single file. After tho party had passed in tho
houso the door was again carefully secured,
and not a moment too soon, re; a crowd of
yelling, hooting, turbaned Egyptaar; crane
along carrying knives, fireara.s clubs a?:d
weapons of ull sort.?, who, had Ihiy e-".: ,a:
sight of us, would have made esteem-ay ta.i v;.
work of it, as "Death to the iorcigav.v!"'
"Kill them! kill them!" v.ero the cries ugeau
and again repeated.
As the excitement bee rare wilder aad tao
crowd more unmanageable, our itnpl -sjaat
situation was all tho inoro senoas, for taoald
it become known that wo were in the :;-: igh
borhood our lives would not be worth the
toss of a penny. Great was our relief t see
a regiment of troops raareh ie.to the square,
and to know that even if they could not ac
complish much toward breaking up the mob,
they probably would prevent cur houso be
ing broken into, as one of tho members of
tho firm was related to an oilleer of tho regi
ment. Our only plan now was to wait until
a comparatively quiet time; then, watching
our opportunity, send our guides cut to co.-u-municato
our predicament to this ohleer, and
ask Lis assistance, Tho guide at first de
clared he would not go, as should ho be dis
covered leaving a barricaded houso suspicion
would at once bo fastened upon him as being
connected with a placo in which thero was
something that tho mob was not allowed to
get hold of, and that his lifo would pay th
forfeit. It was not until threats ar.d suppli
cations had been supplemented by bribes that
he consented to bo lowered to tho ground
from one of tho back windows into the yard,
from which ho was to pass through a door
way in tho wall, through a vacant house in
the adjoining lot, and so oa by another street
to tho square.
It was long after dark when wo heard him
return. lie told us that the oaleev and three
trustworthy men would be on hand as soon
as they could be procured and the street
sufficiently cleared for them to pass. We
wero directed to change our clothing for
such native garments as wo cculd Cud, so that
our passing through the streets would create
no additional disturbance, and we wero to
pass from tho houso hy the rear entrance to
another street than that on which our houae
was situated, where wo would Cud the car
riages waiting. It was after 11 o'clock before
wo heard the signal agreed upon to inform
us that it was time to start, when, donning
our mufti, we wero soon in the carriages,
and under escort of cur guard passed without
trouble or adventure to the custom house.
Here we were in another trouble, as most
stringent orders had been given not to alio w
any boats to approach tho landing, and it
began to lock as if wo should have to remain
in our unpleasant situation tuo remainder of
the night; but seeing our boat puiiing toward
the laniling, and assuring the custoeis oilieiais
that we wero not English, at tho iaa-.o tim

Tho ontrar.co hall is tho biggest, tho iao:.t
imposing, the cost licet and by long odds tho
handsomest apartmcat in a modem 2icw
York he-use of the iir.t rank. Ivew Yorkers
cf wealth aad taste have entirely cbmidoucd
tho straight hull of tho uarruw block hoaeo
where the stai:-s go straight up and tho nar

rk-uly aiitayac in it? luraiskira s, ar.d if the
luislre.uof tho establishment has ar.y tabto
wLatevcr for largo decorative eaTeets it is
upoa the ball that she lavishes them. Tho
hall, indeed, is so much c-f a hobby that peo
ple build now houses iu crder to have Laiis.
It is not a:i unknown thing to give up the
whole first floor to tho Lull, putting the
parlor on tho second floor. Wketa..-r thi
hall be big or little, its furnishing ia a thing
to which its mietrecs is giving much r.tleaticu
nowadays. To be quite perfect it i 'aoaMLc
done up i:i old oak and have "ee'iaid"' rUra-I-ing

of quite as much consetracaco as the drawing
