The Kotze-Schrader Duel.

LONDON. April 13.-The Berlin correspond
ent of the Times says: THE Schrader-Kotze
duel engrosses public attention here. 1t is
evident that it occurred with the tacit consent
of the highest authorities. The affair tends
to provoke healthy reaction against a sys-
tenn as stupid as ii is barbarous."
The correspondent of the Daily News at
Berlin says: Baron Won Schrader was
aware that he dying, and he took a
heartrending farewell of his wife and chill
dren. He made his son swear that he would
not accept a challenge from Count Won
Kotze. Baron Won Schrader had dark fore
holdings from the moment he knew he had to
fight Count Won Kotze. Emperor William
has telegraphed his condolences TO Baron Won
Schrader's family"
A Standard dispatch from Berlin says:
Count Won Kotze tried to become reconciled
with Baron Won Schrader after the duel. but
Baron Won Schrader was in too serious a
condition. He was for the most part IN
conscious. He suffered exquisite pain strong
doses OF morphine failed to allay."

to ask for assistance from Buuwayo. The
Matabeles surrounded and attacked Captain
Brands column, consisting of $50 men,
which had been sent to relieve Gwanda
twenty-eight miles south of here, on the
Tuli road. Captain Brand formed ''laag-
er" for the purpose of Offering a better de-
Tense against the attack. Some desperate
fighting ensued. The enemy were found to
be well armed with Martini rifles and they
directed a strong and well-aimed fire against
DR.. Brands Maxim gun with such good eff
feet that ii became disabled. Captain
Brands ammunition also ran short and the
fierce attack OF the Matabeles continuing
the situation OF his force began to grow
desperate: They were finally obliged to
enemy's lines. They succeeded in cutting
their way out with a loss Of five troopers
killed and sixteen wounded. 1t is estimated
that 15q of the Matabeles were killed In re-
Spouse to Captain Brands message calling
for assistance a relief force of 80 men,

Confidence is felt that Buluwayo will be

however, be greeted as a welcome assistance

WON'T AID SCIENCE.
Holmes Declines to Allow His Emo
lions to BE Registered.

Hnhadeipna Press.
Many scientific men, various societies and
many colleges are making strenuous efforts
to secure the privilege of making a post
mortsm examination of the brain OF II. II.
Holmes, who will be hanged on May q.
Several have made offers to buy his corpse.
Whatever disposition is to be made of
Holiness body after death, however. will
be specified by himself. Knowing this, the
medical men have sent their applications TO
the prisoner through his attorney, S. p.
Rotan and are now awaiting his decision.
Holmes has made no announcement OF
what he desires done with his body after
subject to Mr.. Rotan, but it is expected
that just before the execution he will make
detailed statement. directing post-mortem
arrangements
Mr.. Rotan said yesterday that Holmes
had asked him to see to his affairs after
he was gone, and he would do SO, carry
ing out his instructions fully. If Holmes
has made a WILL Mr.. Rotan says, he is
not aware of it. He also said he knew
nothing of Holiness alleged confession.
DR.. B. F. Butcher, physician at Moya-
mensing Prison. SAID he did not know any
thing of the efforts to secure Holiness brain,
and that the criminals family would have
the power to do what they pleased with
him.
Sheriff Clement has made up his mind that
there will be but few people at the execu-
tons from all over the country, and refused
admission to nearly all. One of the applica-
tons was from Dr.. Arthur Macdonald. of
National Bureau of Education Washington,
who wished to test the emotions of Holmes
on the day of the execution. Sheriff ClCm-
ent referred the application to Holmes, who
declined to act as subject in the interest of
science.
The emotions are registered by an nstrI-
ment known as the kymographion. in max
ing his experiments DIR. Macdonald places a
silken band about the subjects chest To
this is attached little air-tiglt cylinder.
with a delicate film over both ends. In each
film ia a small hook. These hooks are at
tached to the ends of the silk bands. From
the air-tight cylinder is a couple of yards of
slender rubber tubing, with the Other end IT,
serted in a tambour. The rube goes into an
other alright space, the top Of which is a
delicate film.
On this film rests a little hinge. to which
Is attached a fine bamboo splinter. which
rises and falls with every breath of the sub
ject. The point of this splinter rests against
a cylinder, which Is turned by clockwork. A
sheet of smoked paper is placed around the
cylinder, and when the bamboo pencil moves
up and down Ii traces line upon he cylin-
der. From the curves and irregularities in
this line DR.. Macdonald works out the prin-
ciple emotion which agitated his subject al
the time the tracing was made.

ing their opportunity to do mischief Minor
skrmishes between the Dervishes and
friendly Arabs on the plain before Suakin

1t has been learned here that the practice

Osman Digna, with two hundred cavalry
and five hundred infantry, has attacked the
position held by a sheikh who is friendly
to the British, but he was repulsed with
fourteen killed. This victory of the friendly

1880 buggies were Sl25, and now y75.
In the same period bar iron has gone
down more than one-half, nails have

Thus every staple article of agriculture and
manufacture has decreased in price in the
last twenty years. 1t required more bushels
of wheat TO buy reaper, or mower, or a
plow, or a cultivator, or wagon, or q
carriage, or a buggy and the rest, twenty
years ago than it does now.
Thus it is seen that agriculture and the
