The official figures show that there
were 1856 deaths from smallpox in Mon
treal last week But the official statistics
are incomplete. The whole number was
at least $50. The epidemic has spread
in the neighborng farming districts. and
cases are found almost every day in cities
on this side of the line. The disease has
already been taken from Montreal to
Chicago. Haverhill. Mass, Boston. and
Little Falls. Many persons in the United
States will suffer for the ignorance and
stupidity of the French Canadians OF Mon.

who hold Office in that city.

Is Gen. Gnrhnn AiiYat

Col. c. Chaille Long, formerly Of Maryland,
and noted III recent years for his African travels
and adventures, is quoted as coinciding with
the opinion recently expressed by Capt. Burton,
another African explorer, that Gen. Gordon,
whose murder at KhartOum has been reported,
is not dead, but escaped with as many Of his
followers as he could save when he saw that
further resistance would be useless. Col. Long
bases his opinion upon the many conflicting
stories Of Gord0n's death, and upon the fact
that no conclusive evidence has yet been
furnished that he was really slain. /" From my
knowledge of Arab methods" says Col. Long
" "GOrdon's head, or some unmistakable evidence
Of his death, would have been sent to the
nearest English post Nothing would have
given the Mahdi greater satisfaction than this
terrible proof of his triumph" Col. Long also
dwells upon the well-known fact that Gordon
was much averse to being saved by Gen. Wolse-
ley, and expresses the opinion that he took the
four steamers remaining TO him and made his
way to GondOcora. Once out Of the reach of
Khartoum, adds Col. Long, he could escape
with perfect safety. A Gondocora. 800 miles
from khartoum, Gordon is well known and
beloved by many, and from this point it would
be comparatively easy for him to make his way
to the Congo country, where he could assume
the functions which the King Of the Belgians
as head Of the international Society, conferred
upon him. A year might elapse before he
could be heard from, and in the mcatime his
friends would seem TO have some ground for
sharing the hope expressed by Col. Long that
he may be permitted to shake hands once more
with this man of miraculous escapes"

Burial of the Dead at Fredericksburg.

Many Of our readers will remember the re-
treat from Fredericksburg that dark night in
December, 1862, and how quietly the great
army was withdrawn across the Rappahannock
and the pontoon bridges were removed, leaving
our dead comrades unburied, lying where they
fell, and the entire battlefield IN possession Of
the enemy. The following day flag of truce
was sent i'll to the Confederate lines and per-
mission obtained from Gen. Lee for parties of
our troops TO cross the river and bury the dead
We have before us photograph taken by the
Government photographer at that time. and it
recalls to mind very wildly those dark, dis
couraging days-the dead bodies lying on the
ground and partially covered with army blan-
kets, the long line of graves, the burial party,
and the Chaplain with open Bible performing
his last sad rites over the bodies of the brave
men who fell in the vain attempt to capture
Marye's Hights. COmrade John G. Taylor, No.
II Alien Place, Hartford, Conn, furnishes
these splendid war vews-especially valuable
because they are actual photographs of these
scenes Of trial and danger. Comrade Taylor is
the fortunate possessor OF the original mega
tiyes " made during the war, and he writes that
he viii send sample views and descriptive
catalog for 81 cents in postage stamps To
any comrade who cherishes the memory of his
war days these pictures are very valuable, for
they are true scenes of times gone by fo:ever.

RuTinC Wild Animals.

Cincinnati Geological Society, in the CONNER
cidl Gazette -
The one place to buy animals is in Hamburg,
and it has really become the animal center of
the world. The largest dealer there is q man
named Hagenback. His place is visited by
showmen from all parts of the world, and his
own establishment is wonderful exhibition
itself. l bought from him the following ami
mails for Cincinnati: One pair camels, five years
old, $500; one camel gelding, the largest Hagen
back ever saw, with saddle which will carry six
children. $500; one pair red Asiatic kangaroOs,
Si00; one male great1kangaroo, 1915; one pair
zebras, $1,000; one pair hyenas and Esquimaux
dog lhappy family, SiS5; one pair brown Rus
sian bears, 800, one pair li0n-sayer balloons,
$3.50, one male dog faced baboon, 500; one pair
llamas, 500; two pair Cashmere goats, $3.50;
six pair Maiagan geese, 5000; four pair North
Sea wild ducks, Sl00; one Lowenbcrger dog,
1928; one tapir, $1,000; one pair ant bears,
$lOO; one young chiinpanzee, already partly
trained, $4,000
l am also negotiating for and expect to re-
ceive on the same steamer with the above, one
pair handsome black panthers, for which $500
Is the price; one pair yearling tigers, $500, and

have also hired from Hagenback four fur seals,
which are now on exhibition in Paris They
are trained by a Dane, who will come with them.
They are taught to fire gun, lie on their backs
and smoke pipe, play violin, and fire can
non. They are on exhibition in large tank,
and the Dane throws his children headlong into
the water and when they cry for help the seals
swim up to them and push them ashore, sup
porting them with their fins. They are now
the wonders of Paris, and will, l think, be
great attraction in Cincinnati. / will also
have an elephant which is trained to ride a
velocipede, and 10 ostriches and 10 camels,
which are ridden by 80 Zalus in n race.
