Ell s1ahdi and Gen. Gordon,

"Yes," said well-known man, en-
pertaining O party of gentlemen at the
club, 81 know FL Mahdi, the False
Prophet, and Gen. Gordon, too-have
met them both many times.
'What is the secret of the Mahdi's
powerp" was asked.
Religious fanaticism on the part of
his followers. He is an ordinary-look-
ing man-looks like any other Arab of
the fellah or peasant class, and would
not be distinguished from his followers
for any apparent qualities of leader
ship. He is, however, q very ready
talker and better versed in the Koran
than most others. A mans influence
among the Mohammedans depends
largely on his knowledge of the Koran,
and there, as elsewhere, on his ability
to talk convincingly.
History-I am reminded by this Sou
dan business-is pack of lies until
time sits out the truth. Without
wishing to cast aspersion on the dead,
but simply in justice to the living, here
are some facts about the late 'Chinese"
Gordon which are said to be well known
to members of the United States army,
both here and abroad, and are not
mentioned In the London clubs without
o frowning resentment. A common
sailor named Ward, hailing from Roch-
ester, N. T., went to China, and, after
loafing for time on the shores Of the
vastly deep, proposed to q neighboring
Mandarin, or chief, for the sake Of an
adventure, that If he would give him q
troop Of $50 "beach-combers" hewould
capture for him the walled town OF
Foo Chow--I think 1t was Foo Chow.
The beach-combers were runaway sail
ors of all nationalities, confined by the
Mandarin for misdemeanors. They
were in for anything for fun. Ward
assaulted the town; the garrison and
inhabitants, numbering several thous-
and, fed, and the Mandarin was so
tickled that he gave Ward his daughter
to wed. The victorious army grew to
be the "ever Victorious q British Of
ficer was put In command by the au-
thorities and gained some successes,
and then came Gen. Gordon ana got
the glory, and all England ana all the
world resounded with his praises. Inc
sailor Ward disappeared-quietiy made
way with, so Il was hinted--and the
grieving Mandarin and his desolate
daughter erected to the memory OF the
obscure American seaman o superb
monument-the only one OF It's KIND ev-
er reared on Chinese soil TO c0mmem-
crate foreigner. - hsc0go 1yS0uns's
