British officers be 1t said they forbade
any one to fire upon the soldierly warrior.
The war correspondents who saw the
battle agree that the finest display of in
dividual heroism was made by the Kha-
lifa's son, the famous Brnir Yakub. Never
did man show more supreme contempt
for death He rode at the head of a
thick dark crowd of glorsemen and re-
peatedly tried to get to close quarters
Over and over again these hOrsemen gall
loped straight at our line, wheeled round
and Numbered along our face, raising
dense clouds of dust as they went and
leaving a trail of dead and dying men,
At one moment a merciless fire poured
into their flank and rear, but they stopped,
and scorning to get out of range, gath
cred in a dense mass round Yakub's stand
ard and proudly faced the rain of lead.
A great body of whitehead footmen,
screaming hoarsely the name of Allah and
brandishing huge spears, ran at full speed
across the open ground for no other pur
pose apparently than to die with their
leader Rifle and Maxim fire and shell
from field guns swept through the mass
and moved them down, and not one man
out of ten reached Yakub's standard.
There they stood with the few surviving
horsemen still shouting fierce defiance I'M
til not one man was left standing. So far
from asking quarter they simply Rugged
death.

GORDON'S FUNERAL RITES

New York. Oct. THE Journal says:
There were several remarkable events
which received only casual notice in the
rable dispatches describing the battle OF
Ondurman and General Kitcheners great
Victory over the Dervishes. Full details
uow at hand tell OF the cruel and IN
christian treatment Of the wounded Der
vishes, thousands of whom were massacred
Sy the British soldiers. The extraordinary
bravery Of the khaiifa's faithful fighters
was another intensely dramatic feature.
The day after the battle military and
religious honors were paid to the lamented
General Gordon, with impressive cere-
monies, at his grave in Khartoum.
The release Of Carl Neule.d, who had
been for thirteen years prisoner Of the
khaIifa, was another interesting incident
and calls attention to the strange career
Of the Great White Pasha" in the camp
Of the Mahdists.

Impressive Military Ceremony at Cor
dons Grave.

donS Grave.
The day after the battle General Kitc5-
ener, with an escort and body of troops.
went across the river to Khartoum TO do
honor to the name Of the luxurious mar
tyred general, Chinese Gordon, when
they returned to Omdurman the Union
Jack was flying over Gordons grave
The scene of the death of General Cor
don, once fine stone building, now shat
tered and crumbled, was the palace" at
Khartoum, formerly the seat of govern
ment of the Soudan. Here Gordon was
slain as he stood at the top of the stair
way confronting a wild mob of the NAH
dis followers. The first one of them to
reach the top pierced Gordon through and
through.
General Kitchener had planned the cere-
monies in honor of Gordon with fine SOL
dierly appreciation of what was fitting
under the circumstances. Detachments of
all the British and Egyptian regiments
were drawn up in firing lines around three
sides Of quadrangle facing the front of
the ruined palace, the blacks on the right,
the British on the left.
From the battered tower rose two flag
staffs with halyards, which were in charge
Of Lieutenant Stanley. R. N; Captain
Watson, A D. c.. Major Milford and the
Sirdar's Egyptian aide-de-camp. General
kitchener, who stood with his staff inside
the quadrangle. suddenly raised his hand;
the band of the Grenadiers played God
Save the Queen and the Khediyul hymn,
and at that moment the British and Egyp-
tan ensigns were run up side and side.
The Sirdar then called. Three cheers for
the Queen" and then for three cheers for
the Khedtve. The Union Jack shook itself
and streamed out strongly on the breeze.
The guns of the Melik doomed a salute Of
twenty-one guns.
The next part Of the ceremony had spe-
cial reference to General Gordon The
British band played the dead march in
saul and the Egyptian band the march
from Handers "Scipio" in memory of
their dead. Four chaplains-Roman Cath

Egyptians followed. The burial rites hav-

dismissed.
