ZANZIBAR, Jan 25.--An English mis-
sionary named Brooks and sixteen of his
followers were murdered on Saturday
near Saadani by members of tine coast
tribes and natives of Zanzibar. These

sensation. Tire question as to the mea-
sures England will take to punish the

A GOOSE FIew Into mon Camp-FIrc.

A party of boys were hunting at night
near Paxton, and their dogs freed a coon.
They built fire In order to shoot the
coon. Suddenly there is a mysterious whirl
in the air that startled the youthful hun
ters. Almost at the same time a dark
object struck the fire they had built with
such force as to make the sparks hy in
all directions. The young hunters for a
moment could not realize what had hap
pened, but on examination the discovered
that a large wild goose had sailed straight
into the fire. The goose turned several
somersaults, and balanced itself after
its revolutions, in time to received a
blow from a cudgel in the hands OF young
Walters, who proudly carried off the
prize. The goose incident removed the
coon completely from the minds of the
young Nimrods. -Vincennes letter in
