The Fallen Chief of the Mahdis.

Osman Digna, who has been respon-
sible to large extent for the Egyptian
uprisings, and whom Sir Herbert
kitchner has so signaIly defeated, is a
man GO years of age. His right name is
Osman Ali, although he was called Dig
Ma because of his beard, dikn meaning
the beard. He was originally dealer
in slaves at Khartoum and Berber. At
Berber, Osman entered into commune
cation with the mahdi and entered into
his plans for inducing the tribes to re-
volt. When the rebellion had assumed
formidable proportions he was made
military commander. How well he has
filed that position is well known. He
suffered comparatively few defeats,
and would never admit that he was
conquered. The loss of one battle or
campaign would only increase his eff
forts to raise new forces. But Kitch-
ener's victory over the followers of the
kalifa has placed Osman Digna hors de
ccnbat.-N. Y. Sun.

clans That 1t May Bring on
Heart Disease.

The ancients were fond of insisting
that laughter might kill, They always
had case in point, and in this instance

ly calls Philomenes. The poet, he says,
found jackass eating up the figs on
his dinner table, so he said to his serv.
ant who came in with the wine that he
might as well give the ass a drink.
Then the poet laughed so violently that
his breath failed him and he died. 1t
must be added that the poet was then
95 years old.
From this suspicious though amusing
legend we can pass to clinical facts
which it suggests. Laughter in itself
cannot very well kill, but it may do
harm. Hysterical girls and boys with
kindred nervous affections are often
given to immoderate laughter, which
tends to increase nervous exhaustion.
DIR. Feilchenfeld relates an instructive
case in which little girl suffered from
VERY definite cardiac symptoms after
immoderate laughter. The patient was
13 years old and had previously been
free from any sign of heart disease.
After laughing on and off for nearly
an hour with some companions she
suddenly felt stabbing pains in the
chest and was seized with fits of cough.

All She Wanted.

Queen Louise of Denmark, as all the
world now knows, bad been i'll for a
long time before her death. Often dur
ing the past few years, her health be-
ing completely broken, she had been
subject to attacks from which her re-
covery was always despaired of. The
last of these before her final taking off
occurred in Copenhagen ten months
ago. 1t was sudden and violent. The
queens physician was called and came
at once, but, according to the story as
it is now told, at first declared that he
could do nothing. Am | really dying,
then?" asked the queen, looking up
from the sofa upon which she had been
placed. 81 fear your majesty must ex-
pect the worst replied the medical
man. But, doctor, l don't want to

When Shafter was senior colonel of the

him the noncommisson stripes, and whose
escapades were just as frequently getting

soldier turned up at Skaters quarters with
a long face and applied for leave to attend
the funeral of his mother, who had died the
previous night, he said, in the town. The
request was granted, but later on, in looking
over the same records, the colonel discov-
cred that the same man had been granted
leave the month before on the identical pre-
text. Shafter said nothing, but couple
of days afterward encountered the bereaved
warrior on the parade ground. Look here,
my man, said Pecos Bill solemnly, q want
to ask you a question. Were you good to
that mother of yours while she was alive?"
"Well, sir-yes, sir-that is, | hope So"

was coming.

But, the investigation having been in
trusted to Inspector Bickerdyke, that
famous detective had already made an
arrest on suspicion. He had succeeded
in tracking one of the supposed muir
dcrers-the man in the gray suit-step
by step from Chaplain to Whitechapel,
where he had discovered him in a low
public house and arrested him. 1t was
added that he would be brought before
the magistrates some time that day
Saturday.
When the man was placed in the dock
he refused to give his name and adj
dress, nor would he give any account OF
himself He had. therefore, been taken
to the station and there searched and
his clothes examined. Blood stains
were found upon them.
These might be accounted for by IL
fresh cut on the thumb of the right
hand. He had in his possession large
sum of money in notes and gold, of
which he refused TO give any account.
In fact, he had badly spoken a dozen
words since his arrest.
But the strongest piece of evidence
against him was that watch and chain
had been found upon him which had
been shown to Mrs. Latymer-Wynne
and which had been identified by her as
belonging to her husband.
The evidence of the servants and of
the sweep (who swore to his IDENTIFY
was taken, and then Mrs. Latymer-
Wynne made her appearance. Appar-
emily even his hardened nature had

came back into court holding hand

Her evidence was short relating as
it did merely to the disappearance Of
her husband and the Identification of
the watch and chain. The prisoner de-
clined to put any questions to the wit
ness. He was now asked if he wished
to say anything before being removed.
"Well, there is one thing | should like
to ask" he said, land that is whether
there is any law in England against
man wearing his own watch and
chain? 2"
Don't trife with the court" said the
magistrate, sternly.
But something in the sound of the
prisoners voice had caused Mrs. Laty-
mer-Wynne TO turn around and to look
at him again
"What, Harry" she cried, ''is it you?'
what is the meaning of all this?"
asked the magistrate, glaring at In
