bon Marche"


The significance of this our Opening, can
he best realized by those who visited us on
this occasion. It being our first formal
Opening VIC were naturally very anxious
as to results, and altho' "Old Prob" threw
obstacles I'm our way In the element of
rain, the success was nevertheless apparent
and doubly gratifying to us, and II the old
raying be true
Coming events cast their shadow before"
Surely our future Openings have cast their
shadow and made for us friends As long
as the BON MARCHE purposes to push It's
business upon principles that have thus far
proved so benehcial-and this It will do
we can rely upon the people of Washing
ton for their liberal patronage.

KoRT.-Korti, the headquarters of
Lord Wolseley, on which point all the
different branches of the expedition are
ordered to concentrate, is at the sharp
bend of the Nile where its source for a
short distance is toward the west. About
fifty miles below Korti is Debbeh, where
it is probable that the whole force will be
established after it has been brought to-
gether al Korti. Al Debbeh the Nile
takes rather sharp turn and resumes its
northern course. This place is just on
the border OF the territory ruled by the
Mudir Of DODg0la, a Sheikh who has
remained steadiast in his friendship for
and 60 operation with the British, In
peaceful times Dehbah is a place of some
importance, because the great caravan
route to El Oheid and the Darfour re gion
leaves the Nile and strikes off to the
southwest, across the Bayuda Desert.
Korosko. the other point mentioned, as
the location of portion of the British
force is some 500 miles farther down the
Nile, and from here starts the caravan
route across the Nubian Desert to Abu
Hamed, at the 81 arp bend in the course
VI thV liNei1 lou mIits duOFe Null
Korosko is not tar above the First Catar-
act. and below that point the navigation
OF the Nile is uno5structed When Lord
Wolseley's whole force is mustered at
Korti, it will probably be about $500
men strong. as Wolseley kept about 5000
men with him at Korti, Gen Bracken
bury has about 1900, General Butler
about 19, 900, and there are about 400
at Gakdul Wells.
