Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1898-09-15

the dervish army was estimated at $4,000,
while the British force that dealt out such
a terrible defeat to this army consisted
of only $4,000 men-1O,0O0 British resu-
lars and $4,000 Egyptian natives. Ac-
curate figures as to the losses on both
sides are still lacking, but various esti-
mates place the Anglo-Egyptian casual
ties at from 200 to 500 and those of the
dervishes at from 5000 to $4,000.
The most impressive features of the
battle were the fanatical courage of the
deryishes and the terrible execution Of
the Maxim guns. 1t was another demon
stration, if any were needed, to show the
impotency of the fiercest courage before
the modern rapid fire machine guns. The
Arabs threw themselves in fierce charges
upon various points of the British forlna-
ton, but the MaXims hewed horrible lanes
through their ranks, and the deadly voliey
fire Of the British and Egyptian battalions
annihilated them in the act OF charging.
The attack of the dervishes began at
dawn, the battle ragged all day, and at
o'clock the great army lay in white heaps
on the field or had surrendered as prison.
-ers. The Khalifa and his elusive chiefs
escaped with a mere corporaFs guard. 1t
was great triumph for the British arms.
The British Soudan campaign resem-
bles our Cuban campaign in the nature of
the original provocation, in the suspense
attendant upon its events, in tie marked
disparity of the death lists on the two
sides, and in the ultimate increase of ter
ritory accruing to the conqueror. For
years the raiding and implacable dervishes
have been menace to all civilized life on
the borders Of upper Egypt. There could
be no peace or safety until the power of
the Mahdi, or of his successor, the Kha-
iifa, was crushed. The present situation
in the Soudan is the outgrowth of the fall
Of Khartoum and the death of Gordon
and the massacre of Hicks army. The
Soudan. formerly belonging to Egypt, was
then taken by the Mahdi and Gen. Cor
don, the governor, was put to death. Ihat
was in 1885, and not moment SINCE then
has the British public or the British Gov
eminent rested satisfied with the Soudan
in the hands of the Mahdists,
The Mahdi is n religious fanatic,
whose followers are no less fanatical.
When the Mahdi died Abdullah Bin Sayd
proclaimed himself successor, and he has
made cunning and cruel ruler
While the above was the immediate
cause of the British expedition against
the deryishes, the ultimate aim of secur-
ing another large slice of the African con-
tinent and the taking of another stride to-
ward the completion of an unbroken
stretch of British territory from Cape Col
ony to the Mediterranean, was equally
definite and ayowed. The fall of Omdur-
man and Khartoum means that these
cities are ultimately to be way stations on
\ British transcontinental railway rum
Ming the whole length or eastern Africa
on British territory.

wishes can never again harass the British
and Egyptians on the Nile with their pred
atory raids, for their army has been al
most wiped out, their black standard has
been captured, and their leaders are
henceforth destined to be fugHives until
they become prisoners. At last the muir
der of Chinese" Gordon is avenged, and
the last of the Mohammedan strongholds
in Africa is practically destroyed.
This great British victory is due to good
discipline, fine arms, steady work and ex-
ceIent generalship. The British have
made the Egyptians into effective soldiers
under English officers. Both the natives
and the redcoats were armed with the
best rifles and machine guns known to
modern military science. The strength of

HANDSOME PICTURES.
Four Plaques of American Game With.
in the Reach of All.

in the Reach of All.
Probably at no time in the worlds his
tory has as much attention been paid to
the interior decoration of homes as at
present. No home, no matter how hum
BILE, is without it's handiwork that helps
to beautify the apartments and make the
surroundings more cheerful. The taste
of the American people has kept pace
with the age, and almost every day brings
forth something new in the way of pic
ture, draping, a piece of furniture or
other form of mural decoration. One of
the latest of these has been given to the
world by the celebrated artist, Muyille,
in series of four handsome porcelain
game plaques. Not for years has any
thing as handsome in this line been seen.
The subjects represented by these plaques
are American wild ducks, American
pheasants, American quail and English
snipe. They are handsome paintings and
are especially designed for hanging on dim
ing room walls, though their richness and
beauty entities them to q place in the
parlor of any home. These original
plaques have been purchased at a cost Of
$4,000 by j. G. Hubinger Bros. Co., man,
ufacturers of the celebrated Elastic
Starch, and in order to enable their num-
erous customers to become possessors of
these handsome works of art they have
had them reproduced by a special process,
in all the rich colors and beauty of the
original. They are finished on heavy
cardboard, pressed and embossed in the
shape Of plaque and trimmed with a
heavy band Of gold. They measure forty
inches in circumference and contain no
reading matter or advertisement what
ever.
Until Oct. / Messrs. J. G. Hubinger
Bros. Go. propose to distribute these
plaques free to their customers. Every
purchaser of three ten-cent packages Of
Elastic Starch, fatiron brand, manufac-
tured by j. G. Hubinger Bros. Co.. is en-
titled to receive one of these handsome
plaques free from their grocer. Old and
new customers alike are entitled to the
benefits of this offer. These plaques will
not be sent through the mail, the only
way to obtain them being from your gro-
Ger. Every grocery store in the country
has Elastic Starch for sale. 1t is the old
est and best laundry starch on the market
and is the most perfect cold process starch
ever invented. 1t is the only starch made
by men who thoroughly understand the
laundry business, and the only starch that
will not injure the finest fabric. 1t has
been the standard for a quarter of a CEN
fury and as an evidence of how good it is
twenty-five million packages were sold
last year. Ask your dealer to show you
the plaques and tell you about Elastic
Starch. Accept no substitute. Bear in
mind that this offer holds good a short
time only and should be taken advantage
of without delay.

Attack British Soldiers in Gambia and
Burn Houses.


Burn Houses.
Gambia, Island of Crete, is in state
of anarchy. A collision between the Mus
sulmans, who were demonstrating against
European control, and the British author
tiles, who have been installing Christians
as revenue officials, eliminated in bloody
fighting between the Mussulmans and the
British troops. Riots took place in va
rious parts of the city and many have
been killed. When the outbreak was
fercest warship stationed in the harbor
began firing shells, with the result that
portion Of the city was soon in flames.
The greatest confusion and uproar pre-
vailed
The trouble began with the attempt OF
the British military authorities to install
Christian off Gals. They had appointed
council of internal control to administer
the 1.-THE revenues, and a detachment OF
soldiers was stationed outside the Office as
precautien. A crowd of unarmed Mus
sulmans who had been demonstrating
against the Christians attempted to force
an entrance into the Office. The British
soldiers fired and wounded several. The
Musulmans ran for their arms and re-
turning attacked the soldiers. Other
Mussulmans spread rapidly through the
Christian quarter, shooting into windows
and setting many houses and shops on

The Gar as an Athlete.

The Gar, in spite of his Insignificant
physique, is no mean athlete, and is a
firm believer in all healthy exercise.
Every morning, as soon as it is light,
he runs verst about five furlongs) at
good speed usually timing himself
by a watch he carries in his hand. His
average time for this distance is a
shade under three minutes-by no
means a bad performance. He is a
keen cyclist, and is seldom happier
than when he is astride his favorite
bicycle with a rook-rif1e in his hand
He prides himself on being able to
bring down three rocks out of seven
while riding at good pace.

Commissioner Evans Says Roll Is In
creasing in Numbers and in Value.
The annual report Of Hon. 81. Clay Ev-
ans, Commissioner of Pensions, was made
public Saturday. The commissioner says
that the roll is not only increasing in num-
bers, but in value. 1t is believed that it
will increase from the war Of the rebel
lion, as there probably are 100000 ex-
Union soldiers living who have never had
pensions, and it will increase in amount
naturally by reason of increased disabili-
ties as provided by law. The amounts
paid out at the several agencies for the
year on account of pensions under the
general laws were SIS, 275 1888, and on ac-
count Of pensions under the act of June
81, 1890, $66, 255,6 $40. The number Of
pensioners in foreign countries at the
close Of the fiscal year was 4,371, having
increased 800. The total amount paid to
pensioners living abroad was $669, 1862.

After the ceremonies there was a tri-

Narcotic for Insane Women.

A safe narcotic has been sought in
the hospitals for insane women in the
City of Mexico. A simple product from
the seeds of the white zapote has
proved more satisfactory than any
thing previously tried, as it produces
tranquil sleep, while deaths from cere-
bral congestion have ceased since it's
use was begun.

on July 1. But with full allowance for all
disappointment, the fact remains that the
crop this year is the largest on record.
The reported rate Of yield in winter
wheat is 14.S bushels and in spring wheat
1914 bushels. If the present rate of yield
indicated shall be maintained the total
production of winter wheat will be rather
under 4O0,0O0,0O0 bushels, and spring
wheat fully 3OO,O0O,OOO bushels.

peared before you, Men in whose
hands the Southland lie, for love
of her | break my silence, to speak
TO you a few words of respectful
admonltion.
"The past is dead let it bury
its dead, its hopes and its aspira-
ton; before you lies the future
future of golden promise, a future
of recompense for honorable prom
Use; future of expanding national
glory, before which the world will
stand amazed, Let me beseech

GOD is WAITING.

Young man, as you cannot live
life over again, however you may
long to do so, be sure to have your
one life right. There is some
young man who has gone away
from home, perhaps under some
little spite or evil pursuasiOn of
another and his parents know not
where he is. My son, go home. Do
not go to sea. Don't 90 tonight
where you may be tempted to go.
Go home. Your mother will be
glad to see you, and your father-I
need not tell you how your mother
feels.
How l would like to make your
parents a present of their wayward
boy, repentant and in his right
mind. l would like to write them a
letter, saying, "By the blessing of
God on my sermon | introduce to
you one whom you have never seen
before, for he has become a new
creature 10 Christ Jesus" My boy,
90 home and put your tired head
on the bosom that nursed you so
tenderly in your childhood years.
A young Scotchman was taken
captive in battle by band of In
dams, and he learned their Ian
guage and adopted their habits,
Years passed on, but the old Indian
chieftan never forgot that he had
in his possession young man who
did not belong to him. Well, one
day this tribe of Indians came in
sight of the Scotch regiments from
whom this young man had been
captured, and the Indian chieftian
said: 81 lost my son in battle, and
know how father feels at the
loss of a son. Do you think your
father is yet alive? " The young
man said, II am the only son OF
my father, and hope he is still
alive" Then said the Indian chief
tain Because of the loss of my
son this world is a desert. You &c
free. Return to your countrymen,
Revisit your father, that he may
rejoice when he sees the sun rise in
the morning, Fand the trees blossom
in the spring"
So say to you, young man, cap
tive of waywardness and sin. Your
father is waiting for you. Youl
mother is waiting for you. Your
sister is waiting for you, Go home
90 home!-T. Dewitt Talmage.
