! Four months ago the English army
marched upon Omdurman and Khar-
tum, and with Maxim guns moved
down the brave '.fuzzie-wuzzies," who,
with unlimited daring, rushed upon
the British lines. Now these same
British are already building in Khar-
tum the Gordon Memorial college, and
recently Lord Cromer laid the founda-
tombstone. The college is to teach
agriculture, engineering, and other
technical arts, in the Arabic language,
and half;a million dollars have been
subscribed in England for its support,
at the solicitation of Gen. Kitchener.

NEW STARS FOR BOTH.
Rear Admiral Dewey Is Now Admiral
of the Navy and Brig. Gen. Otis
F. Major General.

Washington, March A. The presi-
dent yesterday sent to the senate and
that body confirmed the nominations OF
Rear Admiral George Dewey, to be adj
miral of the navy under the act APP
proved March 2, 1899, and Brig. Gen.
Elwell S. Otis, u S. A., to be major
general by brevet, to rank from Feb
ruary 4, 1899, for military skill and

Washington, March 4. - Secretary

lows:
''Heartiest congratulations upon your de-
served promotion as admiral"

PROOF OF FRIENDSHIP.
Germany Withdra1vs Her Warships
from the Philippines and Asks Our
Protection for Her Subjects.

Washington, March 1.-The German
government has set at rest, effectually,
the rumors of a purpose on its part, di-
rectly or indirectly, to embarrass the
United States in the Philippine islands,
and has given signal manifestation of
its desire to promote the most cordial
relations between Germany and the
United States by ordering the with
drawal of all vessels of its navy from
Philippine waters, and placing the lives
and property of its subjects there under
the protection of the United States gov
eminent. The president has accepted
the trust, and there will be no German
ships at either Manila or Iloilo to dis
turb the relations between the two
countries by forming the base of SEN
sational and false rumors.

DEVILS ISLAND, made famous as the
prison of Dreyfus, has strange spe-
cies Of animal found nowhere else on
earth. This odd animal has been call
ed the coat and is peculiar combina-
ton of mammiferous, carniverous
plantigrade. It is about the size of q
cat when full grown, with long head
shaped like pyramid, tremendous
nose, making it the Cyrano of animals.
The jaws are long, like those of a young
alligator, and it uses itsfore paws to
carry its food to its mouth, as monkeys
and squirrels do.

The finest military riding school in
existence is in Moscow. It is $50 feet
long, 146 feet broad and Al feet high,
and, saving only the Midland terminus
in London, its roof is the largest in the
svorld unsupported by pillars. It is
lavishly ornamented, but in every re-
spect save size it is quite eelipsed by
the subterranean riding school in We'll
heck Abbey. This wonderful apart
ment, if it can be called such, is 1856
feet long, about 1870 feet wide, and its
glass roof is nine feet higher than that
of the Moscow school

Iris said that in Australia there is q
hotel where rheumatic patients COM
gregate. Whenever whale has been
taken the patients are rowed over to
the works in which, the animal is
cut up, the whalers dig a narrow grave
in the body, and in this the patient
lies for two hours, as in Turkish
bath, the decomposing blubber of the
whale closing around his body and
acting as a huge poultice. This is
known as the whale cure for rheuma-
fism

THE greatest diving feat ever achiev-
ed was in moving the cargo of the ship
Cape Horn, wrecked off the coast of
South America, when diver named
Hooper made seven descents to a depth
of over 200 feet, remaining at one time
42 minutes under the water. An au-
thority states that the greatest depth
to which man has been known to de-
scend does not exceed 900 feet, which
is equivalent to a pressure Of ss}f
pounds to the square inch.

QUEEN VICTORIA and all the adult
lady members of the royal family now
carry walking sticks, some of which
are beautifully mounted with gold
knobs. Her majesty's sticks have
handles and she uses them for actual
support in what little walking she
does. Walking sticks among military
ladies, too, are now the fashion.
Walking umbrellas have also been in.
troduced, and the princess of Wales
has one that is no thicker than an Or
binary walking stick when folded.

The population of the city of Paris
at the last census was $500, 900, and ac-
cording to the recently published
."Press Annuaire" for 1899, the news
papers for the city now number 1857.
There are in Paris at present 40 daily
political newspapers, but how many
there will be next week, or how many
the week after is practically impossible
to state. If public occasion demanded
there might be another dozen. OF the
political organs in existence, :97 come
under the category of republican, 80
are conservative, and 10 are socialist.

acceptabsolute independence, although
he was willing to let the United States
protect the republic against foreign
interference. Gen. Otis is anxious to
have Spain ratify the treaty, as now
everything outside of Manila is official
ly Spanish territory.

advanced under heavy fire and poured
shot into the jungle on both sides of

ton at Guadalupe, effectually but tenn
porarily scattering the rebels. The

T. Oiz, of battery C, Third artillery, was

William Wheeler, of company L, and
Louis BARREN, of company G, Califor-

WILLIAM E. GLADSTONE, England's
Grand Old Man, used to make political
speeches in queer places. In fact, it
was he who initiated the custom of
speaking from railway trains. He
poured out his political principles from
the mouths of tunnels, on the tops of
mountains-notably his adventures in
Midlothian-at pit mouths and deep
down in the bowels of the earth, on
hays stacks, in chapels, once in Con-
gregational church and frequently on
board shin.

An ingenious invention, lately placed
on the market by a Glasgow journalist,
is attracting considerable attention
among those whose daily pursuits
strain the eye. The inventor, having
oyerw0rked his eyes until he could use
them only with the greatest difficulty,
1t. last hit npon the plan Of putting
several strips Of different colored paper
near his inkstand, So that every time
he reached for ink his eyes fell on
them. The ownerso Of the patent claims
that not only were his eyes relieved,
but his sight improved by this simple
device just WHY'S for an oculist to
explain.

A Valley Flooded.

Charleston, w. Va, March 6.-The
Kanawha valley was visited Sunday by
one of the worst floods in local history.
After several days of heavy rainfall the
Kanawha Elk river in an unprecedent-

entire valley. Charleston is almost en-
tirely under water. Four feet surround
the state capitol. The mayor and lead
ing citizens have opened a relief station
and are distributing provisions and
clothing among the suffering.

THE Guards band was playing out on
