zEBHR PAsHA's WARNING.
KhartOum's Safety Should be Learned
PreYiOus to a British Advance.


Previous to a British Advance.
ALEXANDRIA, Oct. 28.-Zebhr Pasha
in an interview to-day declared that a
messenger, who left Khartoum 63 days
ago had informed him that 100000 rebels
were around Khartoum, but that Gen.
Gordon would be able to hold out for two
years provided ne had sufficient supply
of provisions.
Zebhr is certain that the British troops
will encounter serious trouble and much
lighting before they arrive at Khartoum.
He strongly advises that no advance be
made until il is known whether or not
Gen. Gordon still holds Khartoum. Zebhr
expresses regret that England refused his
assistance, but says that it is too late
nOw.-
Rum0rs are current at Cairo that Khar-
toum has fallen into the hands OF the
rebels. They probably emanate from
Zebhr Pasha's people. The government
has heard nothing of the kind.
Gen. Lord Wolseley has been empoW-
cred to appoint the Mudlr of Dongola as
Provisional Governor of the Province Of
Soudan, under the nominal suzerainty of
the Khedive of Egypt. The terms of the
agreement are TO be subject TO revision
after the expiration of five years.

POISONING THE INNOCENTS.
Children Falling Victims to the Dukes.
Mutt Feud Mt Union.
town, IN.
tUniontown Pal special. ]

Intense excitement has been caused here
by the discovery Of an atrocious attempt
to take the lives OF the members of the
Mutt family The well from which the
supply Of water was drawn was poisoned
hy some unknown miscreant. Two Of the
Young ladies' are already dead, and other
members Of the family are dying. As far
rs can be ascertained there is no apparent
motive for the deliberate crime, and all ef-
forts made thus far to trace the persons en-
gagged in the horrible affair have proved
signal failure. The first intimation
of the coming horror was the an
nounccment last evening OF the sudden
death Of Miss An,ie Mutt, sister Of Miss
Lizzie Mutt, whose betrayal by N. l.. Dukes
was followed hy tho tagic death of the
young girls father. and subsequently Of
Dukes, who was shot by james Mutt. This
evening Miss Nellie Mutt, another of the
sisters, expired. and news of her death was
quickly circulated through the town, intensi-
fsing public opinion over the horrifying
revelations The water in the well is
being analyzed. and the people are
awaitin with intense anxiety the result
Of the examination. In the absence Of any
known motive for the crime the story If
the Mutt scandal and the events following it
are being excitedly discussed, and although
there may be no truth in it the theory is
advanced that some friend of Dukes has
resorted to this dsaereeable act to avenge
his killing by the brother of Miss Lizzie
Mutt. Young James Mutt, the avenger Of
his sisters honor. who il at home. and also
his sister Lizzie, were both made ill, but
their condition is not critical.
