The Etiquette of tho Desert.

Social etiquette among the Arabs Is n
factor in life to be considered seriously if
you wish to live among them without fric-
ton. Its obligations are not to be COM
pletely mastered in few months. Some
times when have had companions with
me presumably thoroughly au fait with
all things Mohammedan the harmony of
the occasion has been seriously endangered
by some thoughtlessness or ignorance on
their part which to the Moslem could ap-
pear only as a contemptuous want of con-
sideration Thus, no greater insult could
be offered to an Arab than friendly in
quiry as to the welfare of his wife, to us
natural civility, but to him gross imper-
tinence bitterly resented. On one occasion
1 nearly made similar blunder Twas
invited by neighboring sheik to go over
to see him, and was on the point of riding
up to his tent door and dismounting there.
Fortunately, however, l recollected in
time that etiquette demanded that should
halt so yards off and call in a loud voice,
"Haye l your permission to APPROACH"
This gives time to bundle off any of their
womenkind who may be about, prepara-
tory to the admission of stranger. 1t is
curious also to notice that in spite of the
real affection existing between father and
son, the sense of respect dominates all 9th
er feelings, and the sons will never sit at
meat with their father in the presence of a
guest, but will wait upon both until the
father, rising, allows them the opportunity
of breaking bread with their visitor.
Provided, however, that you recognize
their social customs, my experience has
proved the Bedouin to be genuine, warm
hearted friends, and they really become
greatly attached to those whom they know
and who know them. My Bedouin

A NARROW ESCAPE.



Newspaper Man Came Near Going to
Heaven by tho Dynamite Route.
ssTalking about narrow escapes said
Campbell Hardy, who has experienced the
ups and downs OF 10 years of newspaper
life, to Galveston News man, reminds
me OF an experience underwent while
running little country newspaper up In
Illinois, chasing the festive advertisement
and the elusive news item. My Office and
plant, where nodded public opinion and
told limited number of subscribers what
to do in. order to be saved was located In
harness shop. One bright spring morn
ing, while engaged In writing an editorial
was interrupted In my intellectual reverie
by the sound of scurrying feet below, and
the next instant by a terrific explosion,
which shook the building.
"All was blank for the next minute,
when found myself lying up against q
broken sash. Gathering myself together,
after wondering whether it was the falling
of brick wall or the kick of an energetic
mule that had struck me, surveyed tho
ruins. There was hole in the floor beside
me and one In the roof above, through
which you could have driven govern
ment OK team, and q pied and wrecked
newspaper Office 1t appears that tho oc-
cupant below had sprung the combina-
ton Of his safe, and, being DESTROYS Of re-
covering the princely sum of Sl.70, along
with some valuable papers, had in a mo-
ment Of temporary insanity engaged a
party to blow open the safe door with
dynamite. The safe was placed on it's back,
charged with the explosive, and the fuse
touched off.
1.-THE bright, intellectual engineer Of
the job neglected to notify me when the
services began, and the results were as
above stated. 1t was miracle that was
not blown to pieces, but, as luck would
have it, / was just outside of the dead line,
for had met the safe in its upward flight
the chances are my friends would be still
looking for my remains with a rake.
Though was somewhat bruised and dis
figured, am pleased to note that re-
manned in the ring. Gentlemen, have
been jumbled up in a railroad accident,
mingled with the tail of Dakota blizzard,
been wrecked at sea and storm tossed, but
this was my narrowest escape from sudden
death that have to chronicle. 1t was de-
cidedly case of being blown up, but not
out. / am destined to die a natural death
otherwise l would have crossed the great
divide long ago, for I've been on the brink
several times. Like the tonsorial artist,
l stand ready to cry, 'Nextl'"

f. S. Dellenbaugh has an article enti-
tied 1.-THE Quick Horse in St. Nicholas.
1t tells of the trained horses that play such
a prominent part in the modern fire de-
partment. Mr.. Dellenbaugh says:
Mankind loves the horse, for the horse
has been one ofsman's most valuable aids
and companions in all countries and in all
ages. But there are preferences among
horses. Some arc priced for their steady
working qualities-their ability to draw
heavy loads. From time immemorial the
quality of speed has thrilled humanity and
found an echo in many a stirring poem.
How they Brought the Good News from
Client to AK makes the blood tingle in
ones finger tips and we follow brave Ro-
land across the dawn kissed Belgian land
scape with swift anxiety. When Browning
tells US how Muleykeh's' master, rather
than win back his beautiful fayorite by
defeating her in the pursuit. shouts to the
fleeing thief telling him how to call forth
her highest speed, our hearts go out to
him in sympathy as his pet steed in conse-
quence vanishes forever from his fond
sight Sheridan Ride" wakes us up Eli
the thunder Of hoofs is mingled with the
rattle of musketry and the cheer of the
rallying troops as the gallant commander
spurs on to the front. In other ballads we
dash with Kit Carson over the crisp, dry
prairies with the roaring fire demon in hot
pursuit, or we shoot our animal in LAS
ca, 1" that stirring poem by Frank Desprez,
and take refuge from the stampeded cattle
beneath his poor body.
