Is HE A WIZARD?

Here is yarn that has been picked
up by the Society for Psychical Re
search DR. r. w. Felkin, who had
accompanied Emin Pasha on tour
through ganda. and adjacent terri
tory, is responsible for it. lie says
mat SbnYe time last year his Paf,y fttrJf
got back to Lado about a thousand
miles south of Khartum, and that he
had been without letters from Europe
for a year. Naturally he was inlpa-
tent for tidings. In that part of Africa
he had often come across wizards who
pretended to transform themselves in
TO lions or other animals at night, and
to travel immense distances in this
guise, They also assert that they ac-
quire information at such times about
stolen cattle and other lost property.
DR.. Felkin says that although he has
these alleged feats, he had a chance to
verify one of their stories.
One morning after his arrival at
Lado man came TO his tent, evidently
in great excitement, and said that the
local wizard, or IN logo" had been
roaming about the country the night
before in the form of a jackal, Dur
ing his rambles the "m'logo" had
visited Meschera-el-Rek, fully $50
miles away, between Lado and Khar-
tum. The wizard declared that two
steamers had just arrived at this point
and had brought mails lie also de-
scribed minutely the appearance OF an
English officer accompanying the boats
DR.. Felkin ridiculed the story But
Emin Pasha took the thing more seri-
ously, lie directed that the wizard oc
brought before him, ana questioned the
! fellow.
Where did you go last nigh"
! 81 was at Meschera- el~Rek."
What were you doing there?'
81 went to see some frienda
what did you see?'
II saw two steamers arriving from
! Khartum,'
oh this is nonsense You could
not possibly have been at Meschera-e
REX"
II was there" the wizard replied
emphaically. And with the steamers
was an Englishman-a short man with
big beard"
"Well, what was his mission
He says that the great pasha II
Khartum had sent him, and he Ia
some papers for you. He is starting
/ overland tomorrow, bringing the pa.
! pers with him, and he viii be here
about thirty days from now"
Or. Felkin says that thirty-two days
later the Englishman ala arrive al
| Lado, and that he brought letters foI
| the party. The newcomer was Lupton

that he IS satisfied that the man was

HOW TWO BRAVE MEN DIED.

A flying column OF British and Amer
lean marines and bitrejatitsjs and
some friendly natives had been push
ing farther and farther inland along
the bush roads and day after day
passed without any opposition. We
were beginning to think that there
was no fight in the rebels, when sud
denly on April l, our small force was
attacked by about a thousand Mataafa
warriors, clevorly painted in ambush
on the German plantation of Vailele.
The attack came first from the rear,
and almost simultaneously came firing
all along the left line as well as from
the front The colt automatic gun
which the Americans had with them,
and which was capable of firing $50
rounds a minute, was brought quickly
to bear by Lieutenant Lansdale, but it
suddenly damned, and the bullets OF
the enemy poured into the column from
three sides, so that our men could find
no shelter even behind the cocoanut
! trees with which the plantation is
studded. Several men dropped under
the hot fire of the enemy, and Lieu
tenant Lansdale, the executive officer
of the Philadelphia, had his leg shat
tered by a rebel bullet while endeayor-
ing to fix up the disabled gun. Some
of the officers and men wanted to
charge, but that would have been OF
little avail Indeed, a charge would
have probably meant the surrounding
Of the whole force, and the cutting OFF
Of the only line Of retreat, And so the
British and the Americans fought on
shoulder to shoulder, till it became
obvious that safety lay only in retreat
I.ansdale and brave Ensign Monaghan
by some means or other got left behind
They were probably lost sight of in
the trees or long grass OF the planta-
ton. For a time sailor was with
them, but his ammunition was eX.
hausted, and Lansdale now badly
wounded, asked his comrades to save
themselves. The sailor went, but Mon
Afghan refused to bulge and con.
tinued to help along his superior Off
Ger whose leg was shattered. The resi
is soon told. They found his body
next day not far from Lansdale's
| Both had their heads cut off. Be
tween the two lay a dead Mataafa war.

and Lansdale, in addition to his shat
tered leg, had now a bullet through
his heart II was easy to read the
story. The brave yonug ensign, sur
rounded by the rebels. tough, till the
last, and not till his comrade was shot
dead did he think Of retreat. And /
have no manner Of doubt that it was
his ride or revolver that had accounted
for the three dead Samoaus who lay
near. The American navy lost two
brave officers, but the American nation
is the richer for a story that will live
in history.

HIS REASON FOR RETIRING.

The street faker who sold a perfect
panacea for every pain on the street
was resting between his afternoon and
evening services and vas doing little
talking in retrospect.
Il wasn't always in this business,
ne said, for my real taste was in the
dramatic line, and | made my first
appearance as Wezzooski, the Wonder
full Wizard, doing my act under roof
and on real stage, or as often that
way as the towns | struck were fixed
for II. ! don't know that made any
more money than in She present line,
but | was in love with my art. and
could AFFORD to make less. What is
money to a man welded to his art?'
and the late wizard laid his hand on
his bosom and looked up at the cell
| ing
But | was not permitted to follow
the inclination of my nature, he went
on. 1T is nearly always so, you know,
in the higher walks of life; in the
purely ideaal, as it were. One of my
acts, which was, indeed, the star turn
of the whole layout. was the famous
gun act, in which | let any person in
| the audience shoot at me from the rear
end of the hall and caught the bullet
in my teeth aud spat ii out in plate
entirely uniformed 1t had always
been so successfully performed that |
had fOllen in love with it and made 1t
the grand finale of the show
"One night in a kentucky town,
where there was a lot of men who were
crack shots, made such a success that
| was asked to give another perform
ance the next night, and ilattered by
the attention, | did so. When the
great gun act came around tall
slab-sided man said he would like to
shoot the gun. | was perfectly will
ing that he should do so, and after
carefully loading the weapon in the
sight of the audience, letting one and
all see that | put the bullet into the
gun and rammed it hard home-it was
the ramming. you know, that smashed
the bullet, made for the purpose, and
rendered it into harmless dust

receive the shot. At the command he
fired, and as he did so | thought some
body had stuck red-hot poker
through my ear, and / clapped my
head and took it away covered with
blood. The curtain went down with
rush and took faint for the next
fifteen minutes. When | came to the
tall man was standing in the crowd
around me-
Here stranger he said, sticking a
$40 bill into my hand, I guess you've
got right to that much, anyhow. You
see | bet Judge Jones $50 | could
plug you through the ear, and | done
1t easy. You ought to be glad We
didn't bet on your windpiqe er your
spinal colyum.'
"Of course he had slipped a bullet
in on me, and being a crack shot #
didn't turn out 50 bad, but the more
thought Of 1t the more I felt like not
giving some awkward chap a chance
to gamble in that same way, and ! cut
the act out. But the people wouldn't
have me without it, so | gave up the
whole thing and took up my present.

Like a fairy silver bell
In the distance ringing,
Lightly swinging
In the air;
Tis the water in the dell
Where the elin mistress dwell
Falling in a rainbow sprinkle
Dropping stars that brightly twinkle
On the darkling pool below,
Making Emusic so;

On their lutes Of spray.
