ANNiHILATED.
Entire Destruction of the Egyp-
tian Army,
BY the False Prophets FOrGes-EnglanC
Will Not Withdraw the Army from
Egypt.

LONDON, Nov. pa dispatch to Reu-
ter's Telegram Agency, dated Cairo 1928
this morning, says the army of Hicks
Pasha has been destroyed by the forces
of Ell Mahdi, the False Prophet. Intel
ligence of the disaster wase brought to
Khartoum by a Captice official. The
fighting is said to have continued from
the Sd to the 5th inst, and to have re-
suited in the complete annihilatiOn OF
the Egyptian forces. 1t is stated the
European artist was the only person
who escaped.
The forces of FL Mahdi comprised, it
is estimated, 100000 men, and included
dervishes, BedOuins, mulattOes and reg
ulaTs. The battle was fought near FL
Ebeid. FL Mahdi first sent forward the
dervishes, declaring they would van
quish the enemy by Divine aid. Subse-
quently the regulars joined in the at
tack and later the engagement became
general. The army of Hicks Pasha, that
early in the battle was divided into two
bodies, was subsequently reunited and
formed a square, which the forces of the
False Prophet broke after three days
desperate fighting.
council of ministers has been held,
and it has been decided to concentrate
at KhartOum what Egyptian troops re-
main at Duen, GOba and other pla-
ces in SOudan. The force under Hicks
Pasha comprised $4,000 men. He had
with him ten British officers. O'DOna-
van, of the London Daily News, and an
artist connected with a German Illus
trated paper, also accompanied the army.
Evelyn Barring has advised the Egyptian
Government to aband8n SOudan, and
establish a strong frontier line from
KhaTtOum in North Seminar province to
SOuakim on the Red Sea. 1t is reported
that the recent order for the evacuation
of Egypt by the British troops has been
cOunteTmanded.
1t is believed the correspondent of the
Graphic, who accompanied Hicks Pasha,
was killed.
ISMAIL PAsHA's VIEWS.
LONDON, Nov. 22.-Ismail Pasha, ex-
Khedive of Egypt, said the disturbance
in SOudan was due to the weakness of
the central Government at Cairo.
Throughout SOudan, he said, much pow
or was exercised by religious chiefs and
derVishes, who could be readily control
led by cOnciliatOry measures and the al
lOwance Of small stipend, a practice
which had been unWisely discontinued.
The sufferers by the discOntinuance
threw in their lot with the slave deal
eTs; hence the present misfortune, that
might have been avoided if the railway
from Suakim to BeTber on the Nile had
been completed to SOudan. The aban-
d0nment of that scheme he thought, was
false economy.
CAUSE OF THE WAR.
LONDON, Nov. 22.-China has inform
ed France that the attack on Bacninh
will be considered cause OF war.
1t is reported that the French troops
at Tonquin are suffering from dysen-
terry.

COMING AT LAST.
The Greatest Musical Family in America to
Visit Canton Next Week.


The famous McGibeny Family, who
have made a widespread reputation
from Oregon to Maine, have for two or
more seasons been expecting to make a
tour of Ohio, but their undiminished
success in New York and Pennsylvania
has prevented. Even now their agent
tells us that they are in constant re-
ceipt of pressing invitations to make re-
turn dates, but they purpose carrying
out their plan of visiting the Buckeye
State, and are announced to appear in
the Opera House on Friday evening of
next week; and we predict for them a
packed hOuse-in fact we fear the build
ing will hardly hold the crOwd-as no
other musical company travelling can
show the crowds that have attended the
McGibeny Family entertainments. Some
ten thousand people heard them during
their stay in Syracuse; Philadelphia
gave them crowded houses; Buffalo, one
of the largest audiences of the season;
and "a number of places where they have
visited this season, the crowds could not
get into the buildings. At Hartford,
Conn.,, nearly 1000 assembly, in Allyn
Hall to hear them, and when in Ian
caster, Pa, some 5000 attended the en-
tertainments during the week. Camden,
N. j., gave them nearly 5000 in a week.
In fact, all along their line, they have
swept the country like tidal wave, and
people have come for miles to see them.
At Auburn State prison they gave con-
cert, free, to the cOnVicts, and carried
joy and gladness to many sad hearts.
In fact, they have given some hundreds
