SAN BERNARDlNO, CAL. Oct. 28.-
The notice published In to-day's press dis
patches that an emergency cali would
soon be issued calling ou. the entire guard
OF the State created quite a ripple of ex-
element around Company K, Seventh In
fantry headquarters, and was the sole
topic discussed by the regular habitues of
the armory this evening. The majority of
the men are OF the opinion that such a
call would be very generally responded to-.
There is no doubt, however, that it would
be great hardship upon some of the men
to leave their positions. even for short
time they would be ordered out, and it
might result in serious loss to some of
them.
A team composed of mem bers of Com
pany K accepted challenge from a team
from Company G of Kedlands for a shoot
ing match. The teams met at the Red
lands range last week and Company K
came home with the banner and 26 points
to their credit.
Nearly every man on Company KS roll
turned out at drill on Monday evening
and every man attended strictly to busi-
ness. The result was one of the best drills

Lord Cromer Is the Real Ruler In the

The prominent part which the Egyp.

African affairs is likely to bring to the
front the fact that, although the boy
khedive has the title and a semblance
of authority, the real ruler of the land
is that brilliant diplomat Lord Cromer,
who holds the position Of British min
lister at Cairo The English government
probably has no official connected with
the foreign office in whom it places so
much confidence as in Lord Cromer.

for this reason alone he is dear to every
Englishman.

character fully. He has had a long
training in diplomatic work. His first
experience was gained i'll India, where
he was sent as private secretary to his
cousin, Lord Northbrook, who was
viceroy. In 1877 he was appointed COM
missioner of the Egyptian public debt,
and it was largely due to his work that
Khedive Ismail was deposed. For this
service he was appointed finance min

which Office he filled with great credit.
In 1888 he succeeded Sir Edward
Malet as British agent, consul general

known, was changed to that which he

And promises of life eternal

ON THE PLAINS.

It was before the war. In front of
Fort Gibson, a military post, situated
on the borders of the Indian Territory, a
number of officers were amusing them
selves with games, races, shooting and
boxing.
Suddenly an Indian mounted upon a
splendid stallion was seen galloping to-
ward them along the bank of the Ar
kansas, close to the edge Of the stream.
He checked the smoking animal near
the group, which soon gathered around
him, admiring both horse and horse
man. He had caught the beast only two
days before upon the prairie, where it
was roaming in native wildness, and
he was riding, as he said, toward the
settlements in order to barter it for the
commodities with which the savage had
once been unacquainted, but which now
are indispensable to him.
"What! To the settlements?' cried a
captain of dragons named Brown.
''You are going to the settlements, Ko-
libri? What would the people there do
with such noble animal? Come here,
Indian. will buy him of you, but you
must first shoot me an antelope from
his back without losing your seat. If
you can do that, I will give you the
half of what you ask and my gun into
the bargain"
A smile Of mockery played over the
Indians lips as he listened to these con-
ditions. Lose his seat! The thought was
an insult.
''Let the longknife,'' he replied,
''ride this mustang only single time
before that skin that is spread out yon-
der, and if he does not then kiss his
mother will try what I can do upon
the skin that covers the live animal"
"Good!" cried the bystanders, and
Brown, with laugh, accepted the In
dams challenge.
The Indian beckoced to one of the
soldiers to step forward and directed
him to hold the horses head, while, in
spite of his kicking and plunging, he
put saddle and bride upon the animal
In the meanwhile Brown, who was
an excellent horseman, having satisfied
himself that everything was in order,
grasped the bride and leaped into the
saddle
The Indian at cnce set the snorting
beast at liberty, and it bounded away
like the wind, leaping and plunging as
if resolved to unseat its rider. But the
bride was in the hands of a master. It
was, in truth, charming spectacle to
see the prudence, firmness and dexterity
with which the captain initiated the
noble but FESTIVE animal into the mys-
teries of the snaf1e. After its headlong
fire had somewhat abated and before he
touched it with the spur, he rode it
slowly and quietly back and forth across
the prairie, and Kolibri watched with
admiring satisfaction.
After having ridden the horse around
in a wide circle, Captain Brown gallop-

by the Indian, upon which hung fresh
and still bleeding buffalo skin. A slight
elevation Of the soil as yet prevented
the horse from seeing it, but he, doubt
less, scented it, for he stopped short,
snorting and stamping. and drew in his
finely arched neck But horseman like
Brown cared but little for the fear of
the foaming stallion. A slight touch of
the spur sent him leaping furiously for
ward, and at the third bound he found
himself close and directly before the OBJ
ject of his terror
For a moment cloud of dust hid
man and horse. When it disappeared,
Captain Brown was seen as firmly seat
ed in the saddle as ever.
Laughing, he galloped back to his
comrades and gave the bride into the
hands Of the Indian.
''The savage has acquired good idea
of your horsemanship captain" said
one Of the officers. "He was astonished
to see you manage the beast so we'll"
'Yet it is singular, !" replied Brown,
"that so shrewd an Indian does not
seem to understand how to anticipate
che movements of his horse as we'll as a
white man. All he thinks of is to guide
and restrain his beast, to keep his seat
and to shoot game from the back of the
animal when at full speed, while per-
haps at the very moment that he leans
to one side for this purpose the horse
starts toward the other, and then he is
almost sure to be thrown"
II do not quite comprehend, said
the officer, who had but lately been
transferred to the distant western re-
gions.
"Well," said Brown, "when, for ex-
ample, you bend sidewise from the sad
die to take aim at any object while
riding at full speed and the horse

backward, it is pretty plain that man

A sudden exclamation from Kolibri
interrupted this grave dissertation. He
was pointing toward the horizon. The
officers had scarcely looked in the direc-
tion toward which his arm was extend

echoed from mouth to mouth.

Brown. "By heaven, it can't be! So
near, at this season? My horse here,

cloud Of dust yonder is almost too thick
for band of traders What say you to
it, Kolibri?''
The warrior had in the meanwhile
removed the saddle and bride from his
animal, and before replying he leaped
upon it's back and gazed attentively
across the prairie.
"Speak, Indian, speak! What sees
Kolibri?''
"He sees Captain Browns gun in his
wigwam and buffalo meat before sun
down.

springing quickly into the saddle
The Indian slackened the bride to
his wild horse, and Captain Brown,
who was admirably mounted, spurred
closely upon the traces of the chief.
Followed by the remaining officers,
they soon reached the herd, which, on
perceiving their assailants, at once took
to flight. The horses gained upon them,
however. Kolibri seemed at first to have
selected fat young COW for his victim,
but from feeling of pride he scorned
the easy prey and spurred furiously
