ONE EGG FOR TEN PEoPLE.-One egg for
ten guests is the pattern at the California
ostrich farm, says the Cincinnati Herald and
Presbyter: "One. two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten," said Dwight Whit
ing, counting the guests he had invited to
spend tho day at the ostrich farm with him.
~ guess that one eggwill be enough" Hav.
ing given utterance to this expression he
wended his way to the paddock, and soon
brought to the house an ostrich egg. For
whole hour it was boiled, and though there
was then some missiving as to its being
cooked, the she'll was broken, for curiosity
could not be restrained, and O three.pound
hard.boiled egg laid upon the plate. But
aside from it's size there was nothing pecu-
liar about it. The white had the blush
tinge seen in the duck egg and the yolk was
one of usual color. 1t tasted as it ooked-
like duck egg-and had no flavor peculiar
to itself. But is was immense! As it takes
twenty eight hens eggs to equal in weight
the ostrich egg which was cooked, it was ev-
ident the host knew what he was about IL
cooking only one. There WAS enough and
to spare; f; and before leaving the table the
party unanimously agreed that ostrich egg
was good.

Troubles of the Lord Mayor of Dublin Over a
Stolen Flag.

DUBLIN, April 4-Lord Mayor John O'Con-
nor is in another dilemma about the civic flag of
Dublin. The Lord Mayor, being a strong Ma
tionalist, at first declared in public speech
in Phoenix Park that if the Prince of Wales
| came to Dublin the flag would be lowered from
the Mansion House, his Lordship's official resi-
dence. Mr. OConnor had some prudent friends,
who induced him to reconsider this threat as
boyish and unwarranted. Then he maAfully de-
clared that when the Prince came the flag would
be officially flown, although the Lord Mayor
would personally hold aoof from the ceremonies
of welcome. This .angered the leaguers and
they attempted to coerce Mr.. OConnor to re-
sumo his original proposition, but he would not
be coerced Al this stage Of the squabble, the
Mansion House flag was stolen. Theories were
at once started about the robbers. Some people
said the Nationalsts must have done the steal
ing to prevent a League mayor from
paying homage to British Prince. Others
asserted that the theft must have been
inspired by the Loyalists for the pur-
pose of making sure that the flag
would be displayed on the day of the royal visit
Mr.. OConnor himself, a class of cynics insinu-
| ated, put away the flag and shouted theft in
order to escape from his embarrassment and con-
ciliate both Loyalists and Leaguers.
The Prince and Princess of Wales will arrive
| in Dublin on Wednesday morning next. AS the
Lord Mayor has made no attempt to secure new
flag to replace the stolen, the Mansion House
is mperfectly equipped to make asuitable demon
stration Mr.. O'Connor this afternoon again called
public attention to the fact of his alleged inno-
cence in the matter. and has issued sort Of
proclamation about the civic flag He an
nounces that if this flag is Haunted on Wednes-
day next, during the presence of the Prince and
Princess in the Irish capital, it will be seized,
| and, if necessary, by armed force, and that the
person found in possession of the emblem will
be arrested and prosecuted.

Wolseley Paving the Way for Withdrawal o
the British from Egypt.

Wolseley Paving the Way for Withdrawal of
the British from Egypt.
LONDON, April 4-General Wolseley has for
warded to the War Office significant report
made out by the medical staff attached to the
Khartoum expedition. The subject of the report
is the results of the exposure to the desert heat
to the British troops stationed along the borders
of the Soudan desert The report states
that if the present British military
stations in the Soudan be maintained
fully half of the troops will die or be disabled
by the heat before the arrival of autumn. The
whole tone of this peculiar report, which was
undoubtedly directly inspired by General Wolse-
ley himself, indicates that, decision having
been reached to that effect the public is being
prepared to witness an early withdrawal of the
whole British force from the Soudan and a COM
plete abandonment of the Nile-Khartoum expe-
diton.
1t is announced that General Graham has
been ordered by the government to at once open
peace negotiations with Osman Digna or the
Sheikhs between Suakim and Berber possess
ing the power, to control the natives 1t is stated
that General Graham has been instructed to Sc
cure such terms as will enable him to evacuate
the country at once. 1t Is not known whether it
was in pursuance of these particular instructions
but General Graham to-day withdrew his whole
force back from Tamai TO Suakim, leaving only
a small contingent at General McNeils zeraba.
1t is believed that no operations will be under
taken against Tamai Nieb The heat is practic-
ally intolerabfe in the desert west of Tamai,
which is itself almost beyond the influence of
the water of the Red sea.
The officers and men belonging to General
Stewards force are completely disgusted over
| the negative results of the expedition, and are
all anxious to be at once recalled home. The
disgust of the magnificent fellows who have
come all the way from Australia to help main
tain the mother country's prestige is simply
supreme and indescribable.

SUAKIM, April A spy who has returned
from Erkowit reports that Osman Digna, with
900 men, is at Shakateb, which is a strong posi-
ton between Sinkat and Erkowit The spy
says that Osman Dignas followers are openly
deserting him.
Gen. Sir Gerald Graham telegraphs from Sua-
kim TO the government an account Of the be-
havior of the British troops daring the trying
marches between Suakim and Tamai.. He des-
cribes the manner in which the soldiers bore the
heat, the thirst and the fatigue of the two days
admirably, and warmly praises the alacrity and
readiness with which, after such march, and
before taking rest the men went to work to build
the zeraba On Tessel's hill. General Graham also
praises the troops for the readiness and discipline
which they displayed and maintained under
fire. The soldiers from New South Wales, Gen.
Graham says bore their share Of all these hard
ships in a manner entirely worthy Of their Brit
ish comrades in arms

Panama from Colon. The losses at Colon

THE AFGHAN BOUNDARY.
Russia's Reply to England Said To Be Very
COnciliatory.

KuSS1a'S keply co England Said To Be very
Conciliatory.
LONDON, Apri. 4-The Pail Mall Gazette this
afternoon states that tho reply of Russia to
e ngands proposals concerning the Afghan
frontier line dispute is most conciliatory. The
Russians earnestly wish the joint commission
would commence the work of settling the frontier
as soon as possible. They accept the sprinciple
of the definition of a zone of survey
but instead of drawing the southern
boundary of the zone, or what they consider the
north line frontier of Afghanistan, which is an
imaginary line drawn across desert steppe,
they propose that the line of the zone of survey
be carried UP to the only natural line of demar-
kation existing, namely, the Borkus spur of the
Paropamisus. The difference between the En-
glish and the Russian proposals, the Gazette
saws is that the zone propose by Russia would
include triangular piece Of steppe twenty to
fifty miles wide, which would be excluded from
the zone of survey within which the English
propose to confine the work of the boundary com
mission.
THE NEGOTIATIONS AT RAwULrPINDEE.
The reports which are received from the Earl
of Dufferin, British Viceroy of India, indicate
that the negotiations in progress at Rawul-
Pindee between him, for Great Britain, and
Abdurrahman, the Ameer Of Afghanis-
tan, are satisfactory to the Indians and
apparently to the British; and they also
indicate that the negotiations tend so
strongly towards joint military alliance
between England and Ameer, that their very
success may be accepted by Russia as a menace.
The Earl OF Dufferin, for instance, to-day re-
ports that the Ameer has obtained from India a
special subsidy for the maintenance of an Afghan
garrison at Herat of sufficient strength to insure
the integrity of that entire district In addition
to this. it has been decided to give Abdurrahman
the services of an English officer to superintend
the work of constructing series os fortresses
which have been decided on as a line of defense
along the northern frontier. OF course it is
stipulated that these fortresses are to be garr-
soned and defended by Afahans exclusively, but
Russia may find cause for irritation in the scien-
tific and professional assistance openly and Of
ticially given by England. Again, Lord
Dufferin reports that the part of
Great Britain, it has been agreed that the
English shall construct a railway from Bolan to
Candahar, and military road from Candahar
to Herat; and. in addition TO all thi7, link the
line of fortresses between Bull;h, Herat and
Candahar together by telegraph system.
It Ii feared by careful observers that
Russia may at least ncontinue 20
