SUAKIi, Egypt, March 26.--The British
infantry, under the command of General
Graham, are camped nine miles from
Saukim, waiting for the advance of Osman
Digna and his troops, on the event of
which the expected battle will open. The
English infantry will remain here for the
rest of the day.
The weather and temperature is telling
forcibly on the troops, but Of the 300 who
fell out of ranks yesterday, overcome by
heat and burdens of the march, only four
are in the hospital, the rest have returned
10 duty. There il no doubt but that
sickness will be renewed when the march
continues.
II is hoped that tho cavalry will be able
to accomplish the object in view without
the necessity of requiring the infantry to
march to Tamanieb.
Tho cavalry, with fifty Arab scouts,
have gone to-day to recOnnOitro Tamanieb.
The troops bvouacked last night in an
oblong rectangle and slept in their accou
trements.
Captain Slade, of tho reconnaissance
party, galloped within three hundred
yards of Tamanieb, but saw no rebels. IL
Tamanieb is deserted it will be burnt aud
the troops will at once return to SuaSim
Abyssinian Scouts.

HOW COLD 1T WAS.
An Interesting Barber shop COnversa-
tiOn that Occurred Recently.

Boston Globe.
Chow cold is it?'' asked a man, who
was waiting his turn to be shaved in a
barber's shop recently
'sPretty cold" said one of the BARRIERS.
''True enough" said the man, "but
that's not what / was after. Who knows
ANYTHING about the thermOmeterW
Il do" said every man in the room.
"At LILY house, at the West End, at 6
O'c ock this morning, it was degree be-
low zero, and from the feeling of my
wiefs feet l think it must have been very
much lower than that during the night"
said one.
sit was degrees above at the South
End at 8 O'Clock this morning." said an
other.
81 was so cold that | woke up and took
a notion to look at the thermometer about
this morning, and it hadn't got down to
zero then. L kept pretty good run of the
thing, and think it must have reached
its lowest point about O'clock" said an
other.
And now at II O'Clock" said man
who had stepped outside to ascertain,
''its 6 degrees above"
why, then, it's growing warmer"
said the first man in disappointed tone.
cit was colder than that yesterday
morning, and it don't come any where
near the drop of the snap two weeks
ago"
Its pretty cold, though said the boss
barber. 'AWhen opened the place there
was a man here wanted to be shaved
right off. l got enough water by melting
a lump of ice in my hand, but the razor
frOze to the mans face IN the middle Of
the job, and had to leave it sticking there
while l built the fire."
"'Twas cold, that's fact" said the
second barber. when l went to wash
my face in my room this morning the
water CrOze on me. l began on my neck,
you know. and by the time | had got up
to my face the back of my neck had a
sheet of Ice on it so thick l couldn't bend
my head till l got a stick Of wood and
broke it,
Eyes, it was tolerably cold," said the
third barber. ''But Pve seen it colder. I'Ve
camped out up North where when we un-
dertOok to cook potatoes they would be
boiling in one side of the pot while the
water was freezing in the other"
els that fact?" asked customer.
Ppm barber, SIR" said the man with
the razor, proudly. "DO you want any
stronger assurance of my veracityS"
There could be nOne," said the custo-
mer in an awed tone.

Some Close Figuring.


Early yesterday forenoon a colOred man
halted a pedestrian on Monroe avenue
and asked for cash contribution, eX-
planning:
Cup at de house de water has froze up,
de fab has gone out, dar's muffin to eat,
an de ole woman am cryin' wild de cold
as if her heart would break"
He was given quarter, and half an
hour afterward he was IN the corridor of
the post Office and saying, in the presence
of his first benefactor:
Cup at de house de water has froze up,
de fab has gone out, dar's muffin to eat,
and de ole woman has gone to bed to keep
warm"
The story was next told at the corner of
Jeffe son avenue and Griswold street, and
1T ended up with:
CAN de ole woman has gone ober to a
naybOr's to keep from freezin'."
About 10 O'Clock the man entered an in
surance Office i'll which the gentleman is
81 wants it to help pay my fare to Chat
ham"
e'See here, sir You are the man who
said the water had frozen up, the fire was
out, there was nothing to eat, and your
old woman was crying in the cold. Why
do you tell different story nOww
"Well, sab, reckon kim explain all
about it. In de fust place de ole woman

Emperor Wilhelm at the opera.
From a Berlin Letter.


Nearly the entire court was present.
The Emperor, of course, was there. He
never fails to appear when Lucca sings.
In the largest of the royal boxes sat
Prince Wilhelm, his Wife's brother. Prince
Gunther of Schleswig-H Olstein, and an
other young officer. In the box adjoining
were the Prince and Princess Friedrich
of HOhenzOllern. Between acts Prince
Wilhelm, followed by his companions, en-
tered their box. The Prince and Princess
kept their seats and shook hands with the
future third Emperor of Germany without
Offering to stand up. Prince Wilhelm
CALAMITY kissed the Princess glove and
then took seat in a shadOwy corner by
her. Suddenly the old Kaiser walked in 4.
The party instantly arose to greet the
grizzly monarch, who shook all cordially
by the hand and appeared in the
best Of spirits. AS he held the Princess
hand until she stood up straight. after
making her low courtesy, l noticed for
the first time that the Kaiser's index
finger of his right hand was entirely gone
They all stood awhile chatting pleasantly,
until HIS Majesty withdrew. The Prince
of H0henZOllern dropped on a sofa In the
back OF the box, and just as Prince Will
helm was starting to sit on the point of
the formers helmet cap, which lay beside
him, he pulled it hastily aside, and the
heir to the German throne let himself
carefully down on to the velvety depths
of the sofa beside Prince Friedrich.
Once, in going through one Of the royal
palaces, the guide told me that the Empe-
ror's finger had been shot off accidentally
at a hunt when he was very young man,
and before his marriage, but that artists
always painted in the missing member.

Boston's sewerage Experiment.
NprinQteld Repu6licd


The public will follow with interest
BostOn's experiment of leading its sewage
into deep tide water. This morning the
pumps will be set in motion at Old Har-
Dor Point, the final discharge being at
Moon Island. The entire cost has be, n
$4,544, 272, and the building of the sewer
age is spoken of as Zone of the greatest
engineering feats of the age" 1t may
seem little hypercritical to express
regret on this inaugural day of great en-
terprise that Boston did not see tit to IN
clude in its plans all the possibili-
ties in the case. London has taught
the world that nuisance
can be turned into a profitable
product available for agriculture. The
market gardeners about the city eagerly
take up all the sewage fertilizers turned
out at the London works, and find them
even better than what they buy in the
market. At Pullman, the infant city of
Illinois also, the revenue derived from the
sale of the manipulated sewage is a good
and fair interest upon the money invested
in the works, to say nothing of the meal
culable benefit to the community in the
solution of serious difficulty. A glance
at the North Cambridge and Arlington
meadows, and in fact the market garden
ing section of Middlesex county
ought to satisfy any one as to
the extravaganza of the policy
which dumps the refuse of a great
city into the sea. 1t is an open question,
moreover, whether the ''deep tide'' will
take and hold this sewage. Nantasket
and the contiguous beaches may have Oc-
casiOn hereafter to thank Boston heartily
for pertaining the surf and giving a new
value to their bathing privileges. OF
course, the present works need not be
abandoned. even if they prove to be a
nuisance. The pumping station can Il
turned into a feTtilizing factory, but the
roundabout way of getting at it will GER
tainly be very expensive.
