Trembling now the gorgeous tomb
Aud the dust within its gloom
Erstwhile Mahdi OF Khart cum,
Feels the British cannous' boom.
Now upon Omdurman's plain
Stand the British once again.
There the Sirdars MaSims train
Thunders on in gruff disdain.
While the Dervish soldier chants,
Aud the sun from lance to lance
Marks each horses stately prance,
As he makes his last advance.
There they chsrgein Allah's name
Meath those standards like a flame;
But the Maxim's ruthless aim
All the standard bearers claim.
Aud their souls have left in flight,
Thousands strewn in jibbas white,
Aud the sun his lances bright
To the Nubian deserts night.

Hawaii's Exhibit.

The official program OF the Omaha
Exposition has the following to say
in reference to the exhibit at Omaha:
There is no single exhibit at the
Exposition which is attracting as
much attention as that from Hawaii,
located in the Agricultural Building.
Nearly everyone OF the better class
of people seem to be interested in
knowing about the resources, con-
ditions and beauties of these newly
acquired possessions by Uncle Sam.
Hawaii was very fortunate in the
selection OF it's representatives, Hon.
Robert W. Single, of Honolulu, and
Hon. John T. Clarke. An excellent
likeness of Mr.. Single appears in
the program.
These gentlemen have brought
forcibly to the minds OF the people
the wonderful resources OF Hawaii,
the great opportunities offered there
for investment, its equable elm ate,
its marvellous beauties and numer GUS
attractive features, making it a most
desirable place to visit for those
seeking health and pleasure.
The annexation of the Islands has
been the means OF turning the eyes
OF many people to this Paradise of
the Pacific.
Mr.. Single and his assistants
have always been very obliging in
showing courtesies to visitors. The
serving of Hawaiian coffee has been
drawing feature OF the exhibit.
The excursions leaving for Hawaii
on Nov. 5 and January "a under Mr..
Shingles direction, are an assured
success. Many prominent people
have already been booked for the
first of these excursions. Especial
attention will be- shown the visitors
by the Hawaiian people.

GALLAGHER HAS A CLOSE CALL
A Salt Lake Boxer Secures Draw
in Warm Bout.

III Wdrm oOuJ.
Los ANGELES, October Billy
Gallagher, formerly OF Oakland, the
idol OF local sports, aud Jim Kim
ball, formerly of Salt Lake, but now
claiming this city for his home,
fought fifteen rounds to a draw
here to night. The decision of Ref
cree John Brink was we'll received.
The fight took place before the Los
Angeles Athletic Club.
Kimball is comparatively new
man at the game, but he showed
wonderful quickness and avoided
the terrific rushes OF Gallagher at
every stage of the game quitting
strong and active. In the ninth
round he opened a cut under Gal
lagher's left eye with straight
right punch, and from that time on
he landed repeatedly on Gallagher's
face.
Gallagher did most of the lead
ing, and forced the fighting through
out, but in the fourteenth round he
was all but out when time was call
ed. The fifteenth round was
terrific one, but both men we're on
their feet and anxious when time
was called.

But the baker was not slow to see that he
could make more money by furnishing the par
ticular bread direct than by baking 1t for his
customers and So after while the housewife
ceased to bake the bread of her country, be-
cause she could buy it ready made for only
little more than 1t would cost her to make it at

be baked only at home. The bakeries where
these necessary articles of food are produced

may have their bread early in the morning. The

toward morning the temperature becomes SO
high that the men work almost naked. Toward
the end of the week extra work in the way Of
fancy bread and cake is done in these bakeries,
although that branch of the business Is carried
on to a greater extent in the upper East Side

part than with the people of the lower East
Side.

Napoleon looked at the black bread which was
