BRAVE DEEDS
A,p Or Daring That WIN Gs Down u
History.


Asts Or Daring That VIII 90 Down to
History.
One OF the traditions Of Boston is
that at anti-slavery meetings held be-
fore the war eloQuence was so com =
mon that no orator, not even Wen
dell Phillips, could thrill the
audience unless his speech was eX-
ceptionally brilliant and original. A
similar remark may be made Of sol
diers and their brave deeds, says the
Youths Companion. SO common is
courage to them that they are thrilled
only by an extraordinary deed of dar-
ing
Some years ago an English ship,
the Blrkenhead, filled with women,
children and soldiers, struck a hidden
rock and began to sink. The boats
could not save all, and though the
coast was near, the intervening water
abounded with sharks.
At the command Of their colonel
the soldiers formed in line to die.
They saw the boats loaded with
women and children 60 of, but at
parade rest" they stood on the deck.
While inch by inch, the drowning ship
sank low,
Stlll under steadfast mon.
The civilized world was thrilled by
the brave deed; but the foremost SOL
der Of the day, Wellington, while
heartily praising the discipline of the
battalion, said not word Of their
courage, That, from the military
point of view, was what would be
expected of British soldiers. But
their discipline, by which they were
enabled to stand in rising, surging
waters, without tlinching and in I'M
broken ranks, until drowned-that
was worthy of a commanders praise,
While the mutinous sepOys were
attacking Gen. Wheeler's entrench-
ments at Cawnpore, a shot from their
batteries blew up the contents of a
two-wheeled cart loaded with car
tridges. 1t also set fire to the wood
work Of the cart, which was stand :
lug III DuC pldCO WuClO UllC AIuRliSu
ammunition was stored.
Both the mutneels and the English
saw that If the fire was not eXtin-
guished there would soon be a most
disastrous explosion. The Sepoy bat
teries, therefore, poured in a deadly
stream of round shot to prevent the
English from putting out the flames
A young lieutenant, Delaforse, un-
moved by the concentrated fire of
shot, threw himself under the blaz-
ing carriage, tore away the burning
wood with his hands and throwing
earth upon the blazing brands stiiled
the fire before it could spread to the
ammunition.
That was the sort of deed which
stirred British lungs to hurrah and
British generals to praise in Official
orders. 1t is for such deeds that the
Iron Cross Of Germany the French
Cross of the Legion Of Honor or the
Victoria Cross of England are given.
Each of these decorations marks the
fact that a soldier has distinguished
himself above his brave comrades.

Egypt's Growing Cotton Trade.

The Boston Transcript quotes d.
A, Tompkins Of Charlotte, N, c., as
saying that the Improvement of cot
ton culture in Egypt is due to the
confederate officers who, at the
close Of the rebellion, entered the
Khedive's army. They imported into
Egypt a large quantity Of the seed Of
the Sea Island cotton, which, planted
in Egyptian fields, produced the fine
staple for which, there is now so
much demand. Mr. T1mpkins holds
that cotton culture in the South has
n improved since the war, and that
what has been gained in speed has
been lost In tincness To-day cotton
is ushed to the gin Whereas in
olden times cotton was stored some
time before ginning, the fiber absorb
ing Just enough oil from the seed,
(which gave it some Of that brown
color and silky luster peculiar now to
the Egyptian cotton"

Inc Kansas OJaJe i've STOCK sanitary
commission has ordered the attorney
general to institute proceedings against
Peter McMullin, of Burlington, and
Phillip Bulger, of Baxter Springs, for
shipping diseased cattle into Kansas in
violation of the quarantine regulations
heretofore imposed by the commission.
The cattle were shipped from Newton
county, Mo, and the offense charged is
the shipment Of diseased cattle from a
point outside the district to point with
in the district. The cattle were quaran-
tined Immediately upon their arrival at
Burlington and Baxter Springs. A suit
is already pending at the instance Of
the board against the Missouri, Kansas
e. Texas Railway company for transport,
ing diseased cattle into Linn county,
consigned to j. G. Wannick, of Good
rich. A criminal proceeding will also be
commenced against Wannick for ship
ping cattle known to be afflicted with
fever. The board also considered the
Chase county cattle case and will prob
ably order the release IN November Of
cattle quarantined in that county.
Some Kansas papers have been mis-
representing DR. George G. Pritchard
the state veterinarian, in relation to his
utterances concerning the feeding of
second growth sorghum to stock. He
has been quoted to the effect that second
growth sorghum and second growth
Kafir corn are dangerous to feed to cat
tie. The fact is he has said no such
thing and to a Capital reporter when
questioned concerning the report, Mr..
Pritchard said that the danger Of poison
ing cattle lies in the second growth
sorghum and Kaffir corn, when cattle
are turned in on it to Craze. The doc
tor has made no assertion that it is
dangerous at any time On the contra
ry he regards both the above named
products as excellent feed for stock,
when cut and cured properly. On ac-
count Of misunderstanding Of his mean
ing great many people who have been
feeding the two products have written to
him asking for correct statement.
The Topeka Linseed Oil works has
gone the way OF the Topeka starch fac
tory. Both have been purchased by
trusts and their machinery silenced.
Where there were three or four dozen men
profitably employed, and making a good
market for local crops, now there are
only empty buildings. The great starch
trust took the starch factory and smoth-
cred it and the linseed oil trust has done
the same for the oil works. The To-
peka Mail sees in these two events the
need Of an active and aggressive board
Of trade or commercial club to watch
such interests.
L. F. Ashton has been appointed dep,
uty United States marshal in place Of

The Woman suFracIst.

The most of the advocates OF wom-
an suffrage in the United States, says
Womankind, are women who, from
the very circumstances Of their. lives,
hardly know for what they clamor.
They are not, usually, the women
who have been thrown into most con
tact with the world. The little local
suffrage clubs here and there, if ana
lyzed without prejudice, will be found
to consist Of the woman physician,
the women who have not married
and are victims Of a conserved long
ing" which they hope to satisfy by
intellectual pursuits, and women dis
appointed in marriage. 1t is, to me,
the "beating of the bird against the
bars" to see these women Icing 80
arlently for woman's suffrage, be-
cause fear that it will not give
them what they need, but be burst
balloon when once possessed.

Proceedings of Yesterdays Meeting OF
That Body.
The Board of health met yesterday at
4 o'clock. The report of the Honolulu
Dispensary from DR.. Henry w. Howard
was read. The report is for the first
quarter of the year. 1t says: 1.-THE
total number of patients treated in the
nine months of my service is 1895:
school children examined, about 900;
suspects under surveillance, 60 to 20.
The daily number of calls at the Dis.
pensary will average from % to 30, and
visits made at the home of the sick, 10
to 30 per quarter. The work is gradually
increasing, therefore the usefulness of
the Dispensary. DR.. V. J. Cappron,
Government physician at Kau, reports
two cases of scarlatina in his district.
Writing under date of May LIST he says
Il have to report typical case of scarla-
tina and a doubtful one; but which,
considered in the light of the present
marked case, is probably scarlet fever
Also" Several minor matters were
considered, two or three petitions read,
and the meeting adjourned to meet
next Wednesday afternoon.
