beggar belonging to the class called Kommando-Schieber. These fellows beg usually within very small districts and know every house that is good" for a meal or a ''pfennig. My newly made friend was kind enough to in struct both Carl and me in regard to Madgeburg.
 "This town is rather heiss (unfriend- ly), said he, ''but if you look out and beg very carefully you can get along. A great trick here now is to tip the portier of good houses, and thus get the pull on every fiat in the building. You've got to lookout for the putz, though, for if you're caught, you're sure for twenty-four hours in the kGsten (prison). Another scheme that works pretty well with us fellows who know the town, is to send around beg. ging letters. You can easily make quite a st0ss (hauD if you work the plan well. Still, it's risky for strangers. If you are going to stay here long, you'd better make friends with the her6ergS oGter. He's pretty good kort (fellow), dHu Il yOu 1cU nLLI huOW .U1ldU ,yOu NC got little money, he'll look out for you when the putz makes his inspec- tion now and then. There's nothing, you know, like standing in with them that's klug (cleverl, and you can bet that fellow is. .. . What do you say to schnapps, trother?"
 My first night in this tramps' nest was one I shall never forget. slept with an old beggar in bed long since given over to other lodgers, who fought us that night as If were Frencnmen. And the stench in the sleeping-room was similar to that of pigsty. Any complaint, however, would have been useless, for the price paid was only three cents, and for that sum of money one could not expect very much. Then, too, the host asked for no ''legitima- tions-papier," and this was an ad vantage which must be set over against most of the annoyances. Nev- ertheless, 1 was glad enough to turn out early in the morning and look for a breakfast, which was soon found, but thoroughly European in quantity. Carl continued begging even after his breakfast, while 1 remained in the lodging-house talking with some of the inmates.

that individuals suspecting their prob able fate would endeavor to escape, but I have been told that rarely if ever was this the case. A sort of fatalism at taches to them, and they say, as Zulus often do when anticipating calamities: "We can't help ourselves; we are the victims of fate" Possibly some of them comforted themselves with the belief that if they accompanied their sovereign to the unknown world, they would be supremely happy.
 Their dead bodies were so arranged in the grave that the royal corpses ly- ing upon them might not touch the earth. A large flat stone was placed above the kings head, and into his grave were thrown all his belongings mats, ornaments and robes of state, consisting chiefly of the skins of wild animals, of the most costly kind. Then the national dirge, used only at royal funerals, an exceedingly pathetic one, was chanted by the thousands of Zulus assembled. A large mound of earth with stones and thorns upon the top marks the place of the burial, which is watched closely for weeks and some times months, to keep witch doctors from stealing any part of the body, which is supposed to have power to work charms and even miracles. Zulus have a sacred regard for the graves of their kings, and they respect also the graves of their enemies.
 During the Zulu war" those "sav- ages," as they are improperly called, had frequent opportunities to desecrate the resting place of English soldiers, but not once did they touch one. Con trast that with the disgraceful pro- cedure of some British ''red coats," who are said to have gone to the tomb of Umfaude, the Zulu king who died in 1873, and rifed it of it's bones! Men asked: "What are you going to do with them?" the reply was: 'Take them to England for exhibitionr'
