Sir Horatio Herbert Kitchener, the sir
dar Of the Egyptian army and the new
hero of the Soudan, is a young man-being
but 47-for the high place he has won by
merit in the military service Of his coun-
try. He was born in Ireland, and at 20
was a lieutenant. By 1888 he had been
advanced to the rank Of colonel. He spent
eight years surveying in the Holy Land,
during which he picked up a very fair
knowledge of colloquial Arabic. This, to-
gether with his knowledge of the native
character, went far toward his success in
the Soudan.

STORM ON THE LAKES.


Wild Wind and Waves Work Terrible
Havoc.
From all over the great lakes Wednes-
day came tales of wrecks, dangers and
narrow escapes in the terrific gale of Tues
day night. The storm was defined by the
weather authorities as a cyclone, with it's
center between Chicago and Grand Ha-
ven, Mich. Tales of numerous wrecks
and dangers came from all points in the
southern portion of Lake Michigan. It
will be several days before all the story
Of the storm can be learned.
So far as Chicago is concerned, the
storm was the most disastrous of recent
years, not excepting the great gale of
May, 1894. Old tugmen say that the
waves were higher than at any time since
1889, when the lake shore road and part
Of Lincoln Park were washed away. Lin
coin Park Commissioners estimate the
damage done by the storm at $4,000.
Fisk Hall, the large new building Of the
Northwestern University, was for time
in great danger Of serious injury from the
high waves. The wall that was built out
into the lake to protect the building from
just such storms was washed away at a
loss Of $1,000. The steamer FL. A. futile.
laden with grain from Chicago, went down
off Michigan City, the crew being taken
off by life savers.

IN view Of the pressing nature Of the con-
areTersy with England over the Fashoda

tarmy officials, who are apparently more
Eeager to carry on an anti-Semitic war in
hhe streets of Paris than to meet for
leigh enemy in central Africa.
As the downfall Of the Brsson ministry
