The frelike flush of the sky after sunset
and strange colorngs in the heavens al
intervals duringthe day, have been noticed
for several days. At Poughkeepsie, N. Y
the fire department was called out Tues
day evening, thinking that the light il
the sky was from fire. A Roches tr
paper has a meteorologist who attempts
to explain this queer red light and quotes
Prof TyndalI. but he does not make the
matter very plain. Anyway the red light
has attracted much attention and will
match the "green sky" that has caused
wonder in the East Indies. Indeed some

Last Revolutionary Centennial.

Monday New York celebrated the last
" the revolutionary centennials The
work of arms begun at Lexington in 1775
was finished when the British left New
York city November %. 1888, and Wash

British rule there lasted longer than else.

in that city and thousands of the inhabi-
tants stuck to King George and sought
homes in lands still under English control.
The city itself was pretty thorough y
ruined by the war. A big fire early in the
revolution left space that was not again
filed with buildings till the Americans
regained the city. But the island town
was excellent for situation" and it went
about trading and growing as soon as it
was once more free city, and it has dill.

upon.
Mondays celebration consisted Of a
great military and civic procession from
the upper part of the city to the Battery
President Arthur and Ex.PresdeAt Grant
with the governors of the New England
states and some others were the chief
dignitaiies of the occasion. The cloudy
weather and some rain interfered with the
enjoyment of the occasion. There was a
great naval procession on the river also,
which a fog prevented from making as
fine show as was hoped.
The six divisions and the eight squad
rons however were not the best of the
celebration. A statue of Washington was
unveiled in front of the sub treasury in
Wall street and George William Curtis
delivered an Grafton. His theme was

office as president April So 1889, aud the
statue is upon the stone on which the
father of his country then stood.
New York's best orator was equal to the
occasion. He was not led by he theme

great good man for whom the men,
women and children of the enduring
republic wept when death took him

should have been hermit. He had the

south uland up the Nile from Cairo, is the

was in Englishman and his army was
composed mainly of the Egyptian troops
who ran away so lively from the English
at Tel el-Kebir last year. Hicks Pasha had
some over twenty thousand of these
worthless troops and he went three or four
hundred miles up from Khartoum and
took the guidance of one of the false
prophets men.
The result was that his army WAS led
into defie and after three days was
wholly destroyed. One man, an English
artist, correspondent of the London
Graphic, is said to be the only survivor of
Hcks Pasha's entire force. 1t is feared
that Khartoum will be taken and the false
