British troops in South Africa are
now commanded by Frederick Walk
er, whose full title is Lieutenant Gen
eral Il. w. E. +. Forster Walker. He
succeeds Major General William Fran
els Butler, whose alleged sympathy
for the Beers made him unpopular with
the English government. Frederick
Walker is the youngest lieutenant gem
eral on the effective list of the Eng
lish army. He is not yet 81 years
old. He became a Scots Guardsman in
1862 when he was an ensign. He left
it a lieutenant colonel in 1886. He
will not go to South Africa unac-
quainted with the situation. He was
for several years assistant military sec
rotary of that district, fought in the
Kaffir war of 1878, when he won his
c. b. and also honorable mention in
the official dispatches. When the Zulu
outbreak came in 1879 he was the prin-
cipal staff officer to No. / column, did
some excellent fighting at Inyeyane
and was enc of the force shut up in
Ekowe by the enemy. After his res
cue he served on the line OF communi-
cation and then came to the command
of Fort Pearson and the lower Tugela
district. In 1884 and the year follow

In 1896 Mohammed Bahia usurped
the crown of Grenada, in spite of the
superior claims of his elder brother
Jussef. He was very unsuccessful in
his conduct of the war against the
Christians and was at length assas-
sinated by poison absorbed through the
skin from a shirt. He entertained a
desperate dislike to the brother whom
he had injured, and when he knew that
his own fate was sealed he sent an
order to the governor Of the prison in
which Jussef was confined that he
should be executed Immediately. When
the order arrived Jussef was playing

NEW KIND OF oLoBE-TRoTTER
If lie Makes Record 1t VIII Re for
Long Time.

A new style in gioOe-trotting has
been inaugurated by J. +. Anderson
Of California, who arrived in this
the world, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord. Unlike his predecessors, he is NOT
trying to break the record for fast
time. On the contrary, If he makes
any record it will be the longtime rec
ord, for he is devoting five years to
his tour, two of which have been spent
in visiting thirty-two states in this
country. The remainder he will visic
on his way to the Gulf OF Mexico, he
having left for the south. Mr.. Ander-
son started from Pomona, Cal, in
1897, and in a small, covered wagon
drove into Mexico. On May 20 he left
Mexico and drove up through Cali
fornia. In July he proceeded in the
same manner through the timber re-
gions of Oregon and Washington and
spent the winter on Puget sound.
Crossing the Cascade mountains and
the Idaho lava beds, he proceeded to
Yellowstone park. After riding 6,00J
miles in his wagon he arrived in New
York, where he sold his team and
bought bicycle, on which he arrived
in this city. In the early part of next
year NJ. Anderson will leave for Lon
don, where he intends to visit the
Christian Endeavor convention. After
attending the Paris exposition he will
cross the Alps and will go to Con-
stantinople by water. Thence he will
traverse Asia Minor in the same man
ner he travelled through this country.
After visiting Egypt. India. China and
Japan he will return home by way of
this countrys newly acquired posses
sions in the Pacific ocean.

pany employs many girls. Their du-

perform such routine Office work as
requires little skill. In spite OF the
fact that the wages paid are very
small, there are always many more
applicants than the company can en-
ploy. This is the way they arc met:
Every girl who applies is questioned
as to her age, education, residence.
These facts are filed for future refer
ence, and she is advised to call again
at the end of four months should she
not before that time hear FROM the
company. The majority of the appli-
cants never call second time The
applicant must appear in pei son, and
this is test of perseverance. which
is a quality held in esteem by the
company, and other things being equal,
is likely to lead to an engagement.

April or May would be a better time,

that the summer migration to the

crops about Burlington in Kit Carson

evinced propensity never before

and in some cases the houses have
been given up to the invaders. Mr..

made fight as long as he could and

through the doors and the assault was
repealed for a time with brooms. In

swept out of doors the worms crawled
up the walls. After several days
