Egypt and the Soudan.

To the trained military eye Egypt pre-
sents itself as the eastern bastion Of the
i'll shaped African continents bastion
naturally strong and capable of resisting
attack, whose broad meats are tho Medi-
terranean and the Red seas. together with
the dry moat of the desert. The bastion
at once commands the narrow strip of
coast extending to Tripoi and the cur
tain stretching along the Libyan desert
to the Soudan. 1t sweeps the peninsula
of Sinai, and its influence covers the
whole coast of Syria from south to
north. The Soudan, which has already
drunk in so much blood, is SO closely
bound up with Egypt that no complete
settlement of the Egyptian question is
possible without an arrangement Of the
affairs Of the Soudan.

rerrapin Scarce and Costly.

The appalling fact has been staring
"high ivers" and epicures in the face
for some time that diamond back terra
pin are becoming extinct. How far in
the future before this calamitous event
will pass into history cannot be told just
now to certainty, but the leaders of
epicurean thought believe that when the
centennial of the Worlds fair is cele-
brated in Chicago the diamond back twill
be memory only, and will have taken
it's place beside the disappearing buffalo,
the mastadon and the ichthyosaurus.
Public attention has been drawn to this
matter recently by the announcement
that diamond backs are selling now at
the rate of ninety-six dollars dozen.

CAPTAIN VANCOUVER. iardS had been on
chat coast at intervals for over 200 years,
but it's real history begins with Vancou-
yer, and his career is romance In itself.
He was a lieutenant under Captain
James Cook in the expedition which cost
that explorer his life, and the British adj
miralty at once gave him charge to fol-
low up the discoveries and take care
that England's interests did not suffer
by reason of prior Spanish occupation.
On April 1, 1871. he sailed out OF Fall
mouth harbor in command of the war
sloop Discovery with 100 men, including
Lieutenants Nudge, Puget and Baker
The Discovery was a 70-gun ship and
had as consort the tender Chatham,
under Commander W. R. Broughton.
The next winter they passed at the Sand
wich Islands, and in May, as aforesaid,
entered the straits.
He explored its shores with great care
for that time, as well as those OF the
sound he named for his lieutenant
Puget-and took pencil sketches which
are very highly priced now by the Royal
Geographical society. He also explored
many inlets and harbors to the north,
but the strangest incident Of his career
there, and one not yet fully explained,
was his negotiation with the Spanish
commander, ''Senor Don Juan Francis
co de la Bodega Quadra, commandant OF
the marine establishment of San Bias
and California" That worthy had an
establishment on the north shore OF
Vancouver's island. Hereceived Captain
Vancouver with great courtesy, and the
two entered into an agreement by which
all British Columbia was given up to the
English.
In 1898 Alexander Mackenzie, of the
Northwest Fur company, crossed the
continent through Canada, for which he
was knighted, and in 1894 treaty trans
ferred all Spanish claims there to Eng
land. Captain Vancouver reached home
in 1895 much broken in health, and three
years later died at Petersham and was
buried there. A tablet in the ancient
church, erected by the Hudson Bay
company, commentaries his achieve
ments. The region he surveyed has
recently shown wonderful development,
and it's citizens join in honor to their
local Columbus.

Poatrx of the War.

Wartime poetry is, in proportion to
it's volume, transient indeed, and out of
the vast mass Of camp songs, poetic ex-
hortations to patriotism and mourning
stanzas produced in a great war it is
rare that more than two or three survive
and become standard classics. The
American civil war presented no e1cep-
ton. It is too soon to say positively that
even half a dozen poems of that time
will live, but it is certain that at least
one poet on each side will be quoted for
ages-Father Ryan and Julia Ward
Howe

Not Afraid of Trains.

The moose in Penobscot county, Me-,

The Industrious Leech.

The only things more annoying than
mosquitoes and sand flies in Sumatra
are leeches. Step three yards into the
Jungle at the side of The road, and in an
instant there will be some of them up
your trousers legs, little fellows an inch
long and one-tenth of an inch in diam
,ter, which just fill themselves with
blood and drop down.
