cision and Energy.
The yak, or wild OK Of Tibet, has
sufficient spirit to turn and attack Il
hunter. If it had more perseverance,
it would prove a dangerous enemy.
Col. Pre- eyals<i, In his account of his
travels in the Tibetan mountains, mar
rates an adventure which illustrates
the yak's disposition:

several old yaKs grazing on little
plateau. | fired on them, and one fell
and slipped down the snowy slope.
Stunned by his fall, he lay motionlcss
at the bottom Of the ravine. ran TO

fee. l fired, but the bail did not touch
him.
Then he turned and rushed at me.

at distance of &c feet, and one at a
distance Of 50 feet. Tie stopped when
he was quite near me. holding his head
down and flashing his sides with his
tail

eyes and the blood which ran from his
nostrils. II he had had a little more

Presently he raised his head and

THERE ARE TWO sECTs.
Mohanmedans Are Divided According to
Thcir CrreAnI Forms.

lHclr OrPeNai oflnS
Mohammedans divide themselves into
two principal sebastian and Sunni,
the Persiaus representing the bulk Of
the former, The Turks of the latter.
The chief points on which they differ
are the condition of the soul after
death and the succession of caliphs.
The Sunni believe that there is one inn
mortal God. whose works are without
beginning or end, and that He viii
be visible TO the souls Of the blessed;
while the Shiahs deny the immortality
of the soul and maintain that the CO.
existent principles of Zoroaster will
forever contend for the mastery With
regard 10 the prophets successors, the
Sunnis claim that the lawful successor
of Mohammed was Abu Bckr and after
him Omar Osmau and Ali nephew and
son-in-law OF MohanmeO the Shiahs,
however, reject the INST three and hold
that Ali was the only legitimate sue
ccssor.
Shiahs pray but three times a day,
ana enjoin pilgrimages to Nejef. Kerr
bella, kazimaiu, Mcshed persia), Sa-
mara and Kun, as well as TO Mecca
and Medina, Sunnis make pilgrimages
only TO the two latter cities and pray
five times day. From tns it can be
readily understood that the circum-
stance of The Turks being lu possession
Of the shrines OF Ncjcf (Nlcshcd AID,
Kazimain and Keri.>'a is most displcas-
ing TO devout Shiahs.-E.ackWood s

The mem mbers OF & Comany, First Light
Infantry entertained their frienos in the
small drill hall last evening and there
was a most enjoyable time spent in re-
ceivinR and dancing. Lieutenant A. III.
Johnson led the grand march.
At the Second Regiment armory last
night the members OF II Comany, Cap
tain Louis A. Lynch, gave compliment
ary drill in honor OF their former cap
tain. Thomas II. Donahue, who is now
Lieutenant colonel OF the regiment. The
unfortunate part OF 1t was that the officer
in whose honor the drill was given could
not attend because OF recent death In
his family, hut he was represented by his
superior officer Colonel James Moran, ac-
comanied by several of the officers OF the
line and staff. The company turned out

When he arrived ut Walkers house, he
opened his yalise and took tberefrom two
oddly arranged charts, each about q feet
long and feet wide. These hung on the
walls Of the bedroom. Then he produced
numerous smaller linen cardboard strips
each of which bore In black letters an ex-
hortation, IA Biblical quotation or an orig

over the walls in conspicuous places where
the sick man could read them from his
bed He has since remained Ivy the side Of
the consumptiyc day and night.
