The London Times on July % published
n dispatch from SualSim stating that Soudanese
soldiers, pilgrims and traders from Khartoum
confirmed the reports about the mysterious White
Pacha. OF the Bahr-GhazeL The Mahdi's forces
in Darfour had been defeated and there were
dissensions among the dervshcs, and the revolt
against him was spreading rapidly in the regions
west Of the White Nile The White Pacha was
described having force of Turks or foreigners
and acting in concert with the chief Of Darfour.
The term Turk Is applied indiscriminately in
the Soudnn to the Egyptian garrisons and to
foreigners, 1t would naturally be used in con-
nection with Stanleys force. The White Pacha
must be either Stanley or Emin. for there is no
other European in that quarter Of Africa. As

The Sleep Of Death.

fatal malady. The person is seizet
with a sensation Of drowsiness. which
increases rapidly in spite of all efforts
to throw it off until he sinks into :
profound and seemingly natural sleep
which continues for about three weeks
when death occurs. During this time
the patient may be easily aroused fol
a short time, will take nourishmen1

he bodily functions continue in a
natural manner, with the exception
of the abnormal tendency to sleep.

How American Capitalists Are B1ed by tn
Vampires of ommerce.


Vampires of Onlnrrce.
There has recently come to the
knowledge of American capitalists
and promoters the fact that there is a
systematic and carefully-planned
bureau Of blackmail in London. the
workings of which are concealed from
the public, but which has proven a
thorn in the side of numerous Amer
lean enterprises. AS far as known
the head of the bureau is man who
moves in fair business and social cir
cles in London, and has a ''string' in
two OF three newspaper offices, in
Guiding Financial paper: He has
u number of correspondents on this
side of the water, where he formerly
lived for number Of years. They
keep him posted as to Americans who
go abroad to raise money for the pro-
motion of enterprises Of various kinds.
The minutest details of these enter
prises are ascertained by these corre-
>pondents, in order to find any posi-
bic flaws. On the arrival of an Amer
lean in L opdon to present to bankers
there any scheme of financial opera
tons, he is called upon by this head OF
the bureau. who delicately prefers. his
services. If these are accepted and
terms agreed upon sufficiently exorbi-
tant, all goes WE'LL If not, the unfor-
tunate American finds his project as
sailed vituperously in portion Of the
press, and attacked in Il circle where
the blackmailers move. Often he turns
about and comes home disguised, real
izing how hopeless 1T is to fight away
from home. Ii he shows battle, he may
expect to be bled by lawyers If he
buys peace, as he can, a perfect army
Of smaller blackma alters spring up to
':strike'' him. His best course is to
ignore them all. OF course.
But few men have the courage to do
that. A shrewd American promoter.
who told these things from experience,
added this advice: The best way to
be rid of the vampires is to keep your
self and your project secret If you
go to London to raise money 20 to an
obscure hotel and take lodgings
Keep away from the clubs and ex-
changes. Deal only with the bankers.
Give them The fullest opportunity OF
investigation. When you get your.
money come away as secretly as you

At CHURCH.

She's the dearest little lady,
And her eyes are deep and shady
AS she kneels;
And her looks Of pure devotion
Shows how true is the devotion
That she feels.
She is plump and oh, so pretty,
With her no one in the city
Can compare;
OF her charms might make mention,
Her sweet eyes are like the gentlan, Vi.
Blue and rare.
She has hair of richest bunting,
Softest brown, with gold eyes glinting
Here and there;
On her cheeks hue reposes
Like the heart of blushing roses,
Yet more fair.
Oh, I'd read page of Latin
Sooner than describe the satin
OF her gown;
OF it's shade there's no devining,
So I watch its sil1en shining,
Looking down.
Oh! she's such dainty treasure,
could never, never measure
AL her charms;
So I sit and lose the preaching,
Only thinking now OF reaching
Her soft arms.
On the sermons speedy ending
All the hopes are now depending
OF my life;
My excuse, if you'll believe me-
Full confession will relieve me-
She's my wife.

Since Judge Waite's death, the press
the country are eulogizing him because
''he died poor" This is supposed to in.
dictate that he was an exceptionally hon.
est man. That Justice Waite's life was
upright and blameless is not to be denied.
Before he was appointed to the position
OF chief justice he had an extensive and
lucrative practice, but he was very care
less about his financial affairs and allowed
himself 10 be humbugged. and his

sidered a virtue in those who arc elevated
to high positions is not so considered in
those in humble positions.

A news item says that 100 billys have
been ordered At a sash factory in Creston
for the Pinkerton men. 1t is about time
that these janiraries were given to under
stand that their services are not needed.
There is nothing in the constitution OF
any state or of the United States which
authorizes such q gang OF thugs as the
Pinkertons to exercise authority in pre-
serving the peacs or acting as a police.
1t is a shame and a disgrace to the gov
