nor the title they have won. We are com
ing upon time when men of great wealth,
unless they are known as benefactors, are
regarded with suspicion and dislike, not
only by anarchists, but by the best people
of the land-and why? Because Of the bad
uses to which many rich men have pros
tituted their wealth. The world is not
quite willing that men should amass
millions of money, aad die, leaving it to
sons who squander it upon dogs, yachts,
and in dissipation, and to daughters who
spend it in the purchase of broken down,
dissipated, worm eaten counts, who are

A Brave war Correspondent.

Lord Wolseley gives the following rem
iniscence: ''Some of the war correspond
ents are desperately brave, while others
are anything but heroes. The majority,
l think, do their duty well, even when it
leads them into tight places. BY the way,
talking of tight places and war correspon-
dents, l remember an incident that NAV
interest you. 1t was at the beginning of
the Ashantee campaign, just after our
landing; square built little man came up
and said, speaking slowly, and with an
unmistakable American accent: General.
allow me to introduce myself; l am the
correspondent Of the New York Herald.
i Too busy to attend to him, cut
him short with, What can | do for YOU.

same exasperating slowness, We'll, Cen
eral, want to be as near you as can, if
there is any tightin' to be seen. Captain
So and SO has charge of the arrangements
concerning correspondents ! rejoined
curtly; you had better see him. And
with this l turned on my heel and went
about my business. l saw no more of nv
correspondent with the aggravating cool
ness and slOwness of speech for many a
day. | did not even know whether he
was accompanying the column or not.
Personally speaking, l was only in danger
once during the whole expedition. 1t
was shortly before we entered Coomasie

troops, hoping to break the last effort at
resistance and have done with the affair.
when the enemy, utilizing the heavy COW
eft, came down and fairly surrounded u.s.
FOR rev minutes the position was criti-
cal, and every man had to fight, for the
enemy's fire was poured in at close quar-
tiers. They pressed upon us from all
SIDES, lodging from tree to tree, and con-
tinually edging closer, hoping to get
hand to hand. In the hottest Of ii nv at
tention was caught by man in civilian
clothes, who was some fifteen or twenty
yards IN front OF me and who was almost
completely surrounded by the rapidly
advancing savages. He seemed to nav no
heed to the danger he was in but kneel-
ing on one knee, took aim and fired again
and again, and l seemed to see that every
time he fired black man fell. / was

ent Of the New York Herald, and he be
gan again in the same slow way: well,

You were lucky to escape. Didn't you
