Twenty.Seven OF tho Veterans Gathered

The survivors of the immortal charge
Sin the valley of DEATH thirty-eight
years ago sat down together tho other

the banqucting room of st. James hall,

the chair was Sergt. Herbert Of the
Fourth Light dragons, while Lieut..
WightElan of the Seventeenth iancers
occupied the vice chair. The commit
tee by whom the banquet was organ
lied searched the United Kingdom for
survivors, and the result was tho ap-
pcarance of twenty-seven mon only. AS
they met hearty grasps were given,
and the old familiar names called cut
Jimmy" "Pote," Harry" Gill;
answered to the old call, and as hands
were wrung one gray-haircd veteran
would say TO another: Good old chum,
we managed to wrigglc together for
many year" The medals which were
worn spoke of service in India during
thcmutlny as well as in the Crimea, and
though the veterans, with one cEccp-
ton, wore plain clotheS,on every breast
the medals were conSpicuouSly dis
played. There were over thirty guests
present, noncCmtuiGsioncd officers in
the old regiments, SO that the old and
the now life mingled together and COM
radcship was ceincntcd in good nut
brown ale.
OF those present in the charge there
were nine of the Eleventh husears, nine
OF the Seventeenth larccrs, eight Of the
Scots GrcyS and two of the Eighth
Royal Irish hussars. The single srr-
vIvcr who wore his uniform, and prob
ably the finest man il tho company,
was GCrTt. Fawlic, who stood Gix feet

the native gems lie imbedded to the last
touch given the polished crystal, viii be
shown. 49,. r.
The gigantic Zulus who are constant
ly on guard over the exhibit are in
themselves something wonderful to be-
hold. One of them, called big Jim,"
is great chief who participated in the
late Zulu war. He is q man-killer, If
reports be true, and would most
likely make it interesting for any
night prowler who undertook to tres
pass upon his preserves. From the
waist up these natives of the cape are
clad only with bears claws, strung
about their necks, but the neither por-
ton of their costumes is suggestive of
an acquaintance with some American
Cheap John" clothing establishment
1t does not take the rude, untutored
child of nature long to get into the
''swim'' when he comes to Chicago.
In case that is guarded by the Zu-
lus is collection of what might be
taken for ordinary crystals, but which
in reality are diamonds in the rough,
aggregating in value somewhere near
one million dollars. The clay that is
to be worked is put up in strong sacks
and is as jealousy guarded as any
other portion of the exhibit.
This is indeed a wonderful sight and
one that will draw to the Mining
building q great many people who
have read all about the production of
diamonds but have never had an oppor-
tunity of witnessing the operation.
