LONDON TIMES, STORY.
Gunboats' Great Execution-Bravery of
the Dervishes.

the Dervishes.
LONDON. Sept. 5.-The special cor
respondent Of The Times with the An
glo-Egyptian forces telegraphs as fol-
lows:
THE advance toward Omdurman was
a magnificent panorama Our whole
front was covered by the English and
Egyptian cavalry and camel corps.
spread out like huge fan. four miles
in advance and protecting a front OF
three miles The gunboats Melik, Sui
tan and Sheikh steamed in single file.
their decks cleared for action.
"The British division advanced along
the river bank. Then came the Egyp-
tian force in battle formation, the sir
dar and his staff riding in the center.
General Kitchener being easily distin-
guishable in white. every one else being
in kharkee."
Later the correspondent says:
THE Omdurman forts replied inces-
sanity. but they had no chance against
the quickaring guns on our gunboats
No better amphitheater could possibly be
found for an engagement. The plain
smooth, bushless and stretching to the
south is perfect for cavalry and artil-
lery. on the right are low hills and on
the left the Nile and a Hooded marshy
country for miles eastward Ahead. to
the right, are Gouri island and Omdur-
man, the mahdrs tomb rising white
and clear above an interminable line OF
brown mud houses in the center of the
town"
The Standards war correspondent
pays tribute to the magnificent courage
of the dervishes. but says; .U
Fortunately for us their leaders
showed little or no wisdom in choosing
a battlefield. BY not occupying the hill
on our left front the enemy missed his
opportunity. That would have left the
sirdar two alternatives. He might have
either accepted the challenge or elected
to make a wide detour into the desert
TO reach Omdurrnan.
I'm the former case we should have
been compelled 10 meet the dervishes in
the open. In the latter the enemy's
chances Of offering a prolonged resist
ance would have been materially in
creased. But the Baggara have lost none
OF their former courage and were re.
solved 70 attack us where we stood
trusting TO sheer weight of numbers and

There Is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness is caused by an inhamed condi-

 Two Republics: During the first five days of the month twenty-five deaths were registered in Tamplcu, uf which six were ascribed to yellow fever The local physicians are still divided in their opiuion, the majority holulng that the fever which has as- sumed the form of an epidemic is not identical with yellow fever and far less contagious and dependent for it's development upon purely local causes. The federal health authorities have sent medical commission to the city LO both study the disease and aid the local authorities checking its further spread. The rumor that a special quarantine has Oeen declared in American gulf ports against Tampico rests upon an exaggeration Of the fact that at this time of the year such. quarantine always exists against all Mexican gulf ports.

r ACK O. THE BEANsTALK sal

TACK O THE BEANSTALK sat
 talking with his mother one even
 Il ing by the flreside, when two queer IT happenings made Jack open his - eyes wide. The harp that he stole from the Giant began to talk; the hen that lays eggs of solid gold began to lay, and at such @ rate that the floor was soon covered with gold.
 Jack O the Beanstalk," said the harp, do not sit here idly and selfishly. There are those in trouble who need your help. Having told you this, will ask you to pick up the golden eggs and place them in leather Saddle-bag Rise before the sun tomorrow morning. When you hear the first growing in the barnyard go out and mount horse which you will find standing by the door Do not take the reins, but go where the horse wills, and be brave and true. So will you do good"
 Do not go, Jack,' said his mother. 'I am old, and need you at home
 "No, mother, do not stop me-" said Jack. Good fortune has come to us by daring. Let us not be selfish.
 The next morni-g early, Jack awoke, kissed his mother good-by, took her blessing and rode off upon the horse he found in waiting. Once he turned in his saddle to look back. His mother stood by her cottage door, waving her hand kerchief in fond adieu.
 What a wonderful horse that was that Jack had, Jack minded what the harp had said, and never touched the bridle once. He had no need to urge his beast. He raced up hills and down hills; swan broad and brawling rivers with ease, galloped through mountain defIes and over deserts, and never tired. This went on for three days, the horse never pausing, by day or by night.
 Jack luckily had enough provisions to last him. He was a perfect horse- man and could sleep in his saddle lie was dozing when a strange noise reused him. Looking ahead he saw an ocean. Toward this the horse was galloping Before Jack had chance to think much the horse had galloped boldly into the surf A great pillow, topped with salt foam, took the horse away from the shore, which soon be- came a dim, dark line far behind
 Bold as Jack was he was really alarmed Around him, on all sides, were only huge, roaring waves the spray from which kept him constantly drenched. The wonderful horse found no difficulty in swimming through and over the highest waves. Often he raised his voice as if snorting defiance to all the power of the meaSureleSS ocean.
 Day and night passed several times, and still this strange ride among the pillows continued. Jack became so used to it that he slept in his saddle as easily as when the horse had carried him over solid land. And now Jack saw smoke on the horizon. A few hours later he drew near enough to see that the smoke came from volcano, which, like a wonderful torch, seemed to tower up to the very sky with it's flaming cone.
 On and on, And now the horse was on a beach strewn with jagged stones, and now he had floundered along to a place above the reach of the waves and there his wonderful strength left him and he lay down and died But before his valiant life Coparted or his unconauerable will failed, he spoke these words to Jack:
 This, dear Jack, is the dreadful home
The San Francisco call., 1898-04-10

full friend" Then he pushed on until he came near the foot of the volcano. That was a dangerous place; Tor the red hot stones that were thrown from the volcano rattled on the ground all about him. He received many wound, but struggled onward and upward un- til he found some little shelter in a grove of iron wood trees. There, bleed ing and bruised, he rested.
 High above him the volcano roared and the ground shook terribly under his feet. From the earth came groan- ings and rumblings, as if the wrath Of the volcano would tear up the land and throw it far out into the waves. Once, looking upward, Jack fancied that he saw the Giant gazing ferociouSly at him. Jack was much puzzled. How should he get up on the mountain and what should he do there? For adown it's scared sides flowed wide rivers or red hot lava and the air was filled with scorching and choking ashes.
 Jacks lot seemed sad. He knew, af- ter thinking little, that he would never be able to climb to the top of the volcano without help. Any mo- ment river of molten lava might flow toward the grove of iron wood trees and drive him from his present shelter. He fondled the horseshoes taken from his brave chargers feet. As he did this a thrill passed through him. His courage rose.
 One of the horseshoes fell to the ground. Instantly, by the magic with in, it was turned into a shield of steel. Seeing this, Jack placed the other shoes upon the ground. Two of them were changed into great wheels. One turned into the body of a chariot. The wheels and chariot body fastened themselves
