BRITAIN'S BAYONETS.
Details OF Recent Fights with Rebels
in India-NO Prisoners Appear
to Have Been TaIxen.

Calcutta, April 25.--A dispatch from
Slmla announces that the contents of the
diary of DR.. Robertson, the British politi-
cal agent at Chitral. who was besieged in
the fort there and relieved, on Saturday
last by the Flying Column commanded
by Col. Kelly, which reached chitral from
Gilgit after accomplishing a brilliant
military achievement in passing over the
sncw-covered Shandor pass, $4,000 to
IA, 900 feet above sea level, have been re-
ceived there. He says that, on March 8,
the British garrison made reconnoitre
in force and lost twenty-five officers and
men killed and wounded. The siege
proper began on March T. On the 9Th,
the enemy tried to set ire to the water
tower and on the 14th the besiegers at
tackled the east side of the fort, but were
repulsed. The tribesmen
OCCUPIED THE SUMMER HOUSE,
about fifty yards from the tower on
April Is, and on the 10th advanced a
ranger to the stone breast works within
forty yards of the main gate of the fort.
On April the enemy fired the tower.
While the garrison was fighting the
flames DR.. Robertson WAS wounded and
several of the British force were killed or
wounded. The enemy attempted to set
fire to the citadel, April 8, and, on the
11th, the fort was attacked on all sides.
The garrison made a sortie on April II,
recaptured the summer house and blew
up the enemies mine. The British loss
in the sortie was eight killed and thirteen
wounded. The enemy lost sixty killed,
of whom thirty-fve were
BAYONETED BY THE TROOPS
engaged in the sortie. On April 10 the
siege was raised. The British soldiers
suffered terribly from bad food and ex-
haustion of the medical stores. The heavy
loss of life suffered by the besieged was
due to the splendid craftsmanship Of the
tribesmen.

said, 'does not know how to Jump on

connected with another subject, which
will not cut much figure in the next cam

The Reef Combine.

Springfield, ILL.,, April 25.-Governor
Altgeld, talking on what he intended doing
in the way of prosecuting the alleged beef
combine for violation of the antitrust
law, said he had observed that none OF
these antitrust laws seemed to have
amounted to anything in this country,
except to hit the workingmen over the
head with them; that the corporations go
right on forming trusts. As to the beef
combine, he did not know yet what evil
dence can be produced to form a basis
for prosecution. He will vigorously
prosecute all violations of law wherever
he can find it possible.

Cholera and Smoke.

From investigations at Green
witch, it appears that the cholera
bacillus does not like smoke. 1t
shares the feelings, says the Lon
don Telegraph, of the tribe of can
nibals who petitioned an evangeli-
cal society to send some mission
aries who were members of the
Anti-Tobacco Society. The author
tiles at the workhouse, where chol-
era recently broke out, have dis
covered that male inmates who had
been great smokers, or who had
been in the habit of chewing to-
bacco, passed unscathed through
the epidemic. Nearly every man
was or had been a smoker, and the
statistics show that only eighty
three males were attacked, as COM
pared with 100 females. 1t was
found that when q man was seized
with the disease it took a very mild
form. Several old Irish women in
the workhouse, who smoked before
cir admission, and now, when
hey could manage it, had all es-
capped. Not one of them had been
attacked.

DYING BY THOUSANDS.
W. E. Curtis Tells of Cholera Raw
ages in the Orient.

William +. Curtis, a well-known
newspaper writer of Chicago, was
among the passengers by the Gaelic,
which arrived at San Francisco from
China and Japan on September Goth.
"The cholera has attained fearful
proportions in China said Mr.. Cur
tbs when seen at the Palace Hotel yes
terday afternoon. "Chinese are dying
by the thousands. 1 passed through
the streets of Picking, Shanghai and
Tien-tsin and saw cholera victims
dead and dying on every hand. 1t is
no uncommon sight to see the dead
bodies of cholera victims lying on the
street in one block, and in the next
lot of Chinese gOrging themselves
with raw cucumbeTs and melons. The
cholera is all attributable to the filthy
habits OF the Chinese and the weather.
The summer was quite cool until Au-
gust. Then a spell Of excessively hot
weather came on, and with it the
cholera.
'Tn Picking they have plan of is
suing permits for the removal of
bodies outside the city walls. AS is
probably well known, no bodies are
inferred within the walls. To secure
permission for the removal of the re-
mains of a deceased mortal outside the
walls OF the city a cash is dropped in
a box. A cash is a small brass coin
worth one-twentieth of / cent. At
nightfall the cash receptacle is full. It
contains from 1000 to 5000 pieces OF
coin, and when it is considered that
nearly all of these deaths result from
cholera, the enormous extent of the
disease can readily be judged. The
disease is as bad at Shanghai and
Tien-tsin, and is also moving down
the Chinese by the hundred in other
ports of the infected country"
Mr.. Curtis said that the cholera is
confined almost exclusively to the ma
tive Chinese. In Picking, where very
few foreigners reside he had heard of
no deaths among the white popula-
ton. In Tien-tsin only one death
among the foreign population had
been reported up to the hour be left
China. The victim was an English
man, who filled the position of
first mate on board a Chinese
ship. In Shanghai, where the cholera
is raging at an awful rate, the fatali-
ties among the foreigners have been
much greater. Mr.. Curtis said he had
been advised of eighteen deaths"

TO NURSE CHOLERA PATIENTS,
Miss Anna Zofman Comes to Homo
lulu for That Purpose.
Young Lady Has Ambition to Become a
Skilled Physician-FolIowedE N-
ample of Two Friends.

Among the passengers by the
Australia was Miss Anna Zofman,
a trained nurse from San Francisco.
She decided 20 come to Honolulu
and offer her services to the victims
of the cholera. Speaking of the
young lady the Chronicle says,
Miss Zoffman has long been Jealous
in the cause of the afflicted, and
every since the departure of Miss
Efie Lane and Miss Marie Kilner,
who were her classmates, Miss
Zoffman has been eager to enter the
field and win distinction by serv-
ing the victims of cholera. The
young lady who has thus decided
to abandon the city where she has
long studied and labored free from
danger, was born at Monterey,
where the other members of her
family now live. Like the two
young ladies who have preceded
her in the mission to Honolulu,
Miss Zoffman has an ambition to
become a skilled physician. When
urged by her friends that it would
be more prudent to remain in her
native State, Miss Zoffman replied
81 am glad to serve my fellow crea-
lures, and if l die | will die In a
noble cause"
The young ladies who went to
Honolulu are at the Queen's Hos
pital, and Miss Zoffman will be
stationed there from the moment
of her arrival. She has the repu-
tation of being cool and fearless,
and has never shown signs of nerv-
BUSINESS in the presence of diseases
which fill most people with alarm.

port of a pestilence in Honolulu,
Miss Plunkett has sailed for the
islands, under contract to remain
for a year and teach all sorts of
book learning to the children of
the American colony at Hilo.l The
young lady only laughed at the
fears of her friends and went
away protesting that Hilo need not
be more exposed to infection than
California. Miss Plunkett took the
precaution Of going out on sail
ing vessel which will proceed direct
to Hilo. Several hundred Ameri-
cans are In the colony at Hilo, so
that she will feel quite at home.

Two tourists, lady and gentle
man, stopped off at the Falls between
trains. A hackman engaged them for
a brief tour of sightseeing. The time
actually consuGed was f1fty-f1ve min
utes. The hackman said he must have
$40. The gentleman remarked that it
was an outrage: The driver explained
that he had been of great assistance
in pointing out the places of interest
and stood firm. The gentleman pre-
pared to pay under protest.
Unfortunately for himself, he handed
the man a $40 bill.
do you pay for the lady also?'' asked
the hackman, promptly.
do I pay for the lady?" repeated
the fare, in establishment. "Of course
I do. What do you mean?
"Then there will be no change" re-
piled the hackman. ''My charge of
SO is for one person; $50 for two per-
sons. The amount you have handed
me is exactly correct. Thank you, sir. -
