ish, not one Of whom was left alive.
However, in spite of this and other set
backs, the British have succeeded in
relieving Mr.. Robertson and the little
garrison at Chitral Sher Afzul has
been captured and an alliance has been
made with the Khan of Dir. The
trouble may therefore now be consid-
cred at an end, for the present at least,
and the British will no doubt proceed
to thoroughly subjugate the Swats and
other tribes which assisted Sher Afzul
aud Umra Khan. This will not be an
easy task, however, since the natives
are of the most war-like temperament,
of splendid physical constitution and

New Candle.

A new candle has been brought out
which extinguishes itself in an hour.
This it does by means of a tiny ex-
tinguisher of tin, which is fastened in
the wax by wires, and which effectual-
ly performs its task. 1t is only neces-
sary to remove this diminutiye eX-
tinguisher when its work is done, and
the candle is again ready to burn an
other hour.

not at all inclined to be ruled by any
body.
The English do not overestimate the
value Chitral might be to them. The
Hindu-Kush mountains are the great
barrier between John Bull and the Rus
sian bear in Asia and it is through the
Dora pass that the Russians will pour
if they ever succeed in sweeping down
on the British in India, unless the adj
vance is made through Afghanistan.
Time was when the Russians certainly
would have adopted the latter route,
but that is long passed. The Ameer Of
Afghanistan, though he and his people
are nominally independent of either of
the great powers, is now and for some
years has been friendly to the Eng
liSh.

THE REV. JOSEPH COOK

The Fourth of July incident at Homo.
luln will be appreciated and enjoyed BY
all New Enganders. Joseph Cook. boy
and man. has been nota BILE figure around
Boston. He is of gigantic mould. with a
conceit to match. Graduated at Yale al
a precocious age and then run through
the theological departments OF two col
leges, great things were expected of him
by the Presbyterans. with whom he
naturally belonged. But he soon grew
out of the lines of their thought and dis
cipline not through tendency to liberal
ism, which has usually been the case with
malcontents. but becau.e Of a constantly
narrowing bigotry in habit of speech, un
til at last, no fold being home-like enough
to hold him. and no herd good enough
for companionsbip, he became social
religious and moral maverick. and forever
since has roamed and browsed at his
sweet will.
His first real prominence dates from
the Monday Lectures. as he denominated
his MONDAY meetings at fremont temple.
which we're largely attended and widely
reported. In many ways they were nota.
BILE, for the man has great learning, a
unique and dominating personality, and
studied and striking eccentricities OF
speech. His weekly talk consisted of a
half hours prelude, devoted to some topic
of the day, followed by the lecture proper
an hour long. 1t does not appear that
any enduring good came of this lecture
ship" as ne called this junction. or that
he ever acquired any permanent int1u-
