at once? Not a bit of it. Diplo-
matte negotiations were tried in ad-
vance of force, and it was not until
June IA that war was declared. 1t
was a month after that before the his
toric commandment of Alexandria took
place. England was then in much the
same situation as that in which the
United States was placed when Dewey
destroyed the Spanish fleet at Manila,
having no army ready to occupy the
city after practically destroying It..
But the results were far more deplor-
able, since Alexandria was sacked aud
a large part of its buildings burned
by half savage mob.
Yet England was then, asnow, one Of
the great military powers of the world,
with many times more trained fighting
men that the United States had when
the war against Spain was begun. On
the other hand, Arab Pasha's army, in
arms, organization and command, was
about as poor as was ever lined UP in
fighting array. It's total strength
amounted to only eighteen regiments
of infantry and four of cavalry, twen-
ty-two in all, or from $4,000 to 10000
men. 1t was made up wholly of Egyp-
tian peasants, unframed to Withstand
the onslaught of civilized soldiers and
really worthless as military material.
England's organized army at that time
numbered 1889 men at home and

head down, over the machine, evidently
dead or unconscious. Though The
daughter is small and frail, she de-
sided to carry her to the bed and hurry
for help. Running over, she clasped
the supposedly unconscious body
around the waist. Immediately the
mother gave forth such a succession
of blood-curdling shrieks as might
have been heard for Squares, as she
struggled in the grasp of the long-ex-
pected burglar, but the daughter, GER
tain that her mother had gone mad
with fright, held on for dear life and
the two struggled and swayed till fin
ally they both fell exhausted on the
bed. Then they realized the true stu
alton and they've been blaming each
other ever since.-Utica Observer.

total force of nearly 100000 men. And
yet it was not until August q, two
months and half after the DECLARE
ton of war, that England managed
to land $4,000 men at Ismaila and Port
Said, where active land operations
were begun. Yet England is not now
held to have acted unwisely in the
Egyptian campaign. The result was
of course, complete victory for the
British arms and a highly benef1cent.

of the war between the United States

oughly cleanse the carpet, then cut in
strips lengthwise, each strip a foot

longer fringe. The warp is drawn out,
leaving the wool as fringe, and to ia
cilitate this work l cut the strips of
carpet in one inch slashes on either
side, leaving in the center of the strip
an inch intact to hold the fringe. The
fringed strips are then doubled and
sewed in rows on a foundation Of car
pet. If the rug is wanted stiff, attach
the under surface to second piece of
carpet with heavy paste. The fringed
rug is very handsome and the colors
will not fade.

and the voyage from Varna to Old
Fort. near Eupatoria, about thirty
miles from Sebastopol, was not finished
until the middle of the month. Lord
Raglan for the English and Marshal St.
Arnaud for the French had charge Of
the allied forces, amounting to $4,000
men and they were landed on Sept. IA,
Is and 16.
The battle of Alma, the Russians
numbering between 10000 to $4,000
men, was fought four days later, and
resulted in complete rout for the
Russians, but the war lasted until
April, 1856, two long and weary years
and more after the declaration of hos
tilities It was five and half months
after the declaration before the first
shot was fired, and nearly eleven
months after the destruction of the
Turkish fleet by the Russians Cat Sin

England on one side and Russia on the

THRILLING BURGLAR STORY.
In Which Two Philadelphia Women Are
Concerned.

In Which Two Philadelphia Women Are
Concerned.
An elderly woman and her daughter
living in Philadelphia have been spend
ing the last few days in recuperatlng
from a nervous shock they recently
received, each blaming the other as the
cause of the trouble. The elderly Wo-
man is slightly deaf, and lives in con-
slant dread of burglars, and to add1-
tionally fortify her room at night she
has taken to standing a stick between
the lower sash of her window and the
casing above, so that it cannot be open
ed. The other night she was awaken
ed by hearing a racket in her room,
and finally, mastering up enough coHr-
age to look around, she discovered that
her stick had fallen from the window
to the floor, behind the sewing ma
chine. She arose, went to the machine
and leaned over it to reach the stick.
Meantime the daughter had been
awakened by the same noise, and, fear
ing that a burglar had entered her
mothers room and would brighten her
to death, she hurried to investigate.
Reaching the door, she saw, to her
horror, that her mother was lying,

FUTURE OF AFRICA.
Black Continent Has Been Divided
Among European Powers.

Black Continent Has Been DIVIDED
Among European Powers.
II is a fitting time at the end OF the
century to exhibit Africa. Like poor
Poland. it has been fully partltloneu'
though. unlike Poland, not torn liinp
from limb. What political changes the
next century will bring IN conlInen'
which has interested the world lor
thousands of years cannot be foreseen'
but there is no probability that great
native negro kingdom will rise. ne
control is likely to continue wnere II
is placed, in European hands. ne
few states that may be called natlVe
have no promise of permanence. Inc
destiny of the two Boer repupllcs IS
absorption in British South Africa.
Mr.. Stead. it will be observed, IS very
confident of this, and he has good rea-
son for his confidence. Independent
Morocco and semi-independent Trip
oil on the Mediterranean, have no fu-
ture of their own. Sooner or later
they will go to swell the possessions OF
France and other European powers.
We must regard Africa, therefore, as
an appendage of Europe. The white
races which pushed back the natives
and settled and control the American
continent from Cape Barrow to Cape
Horn dominate all the other continents
and the black tribes of Africa, as well
as the brown and yellow Of Asia, are
subject to their rule. The greatest OF
Asiatic kingdoms is in the process OF
decay, and its partition is already be-
gun. 1t SENS terribly unjust for the
white interlopers to wrest two CONT
nents-America and Australia-from
the aboriginal man and make them
their own; to take another from the
Asiatic races and erect their standards
over it, and, finally, to take Africa
from the blacks and subject it wholly
to their WILL
