LORD BERSEFORD Is DEAD.
Brave Horo of the Zulu War Expires I'm
London.

London, Dec. 31.-Lord William Les
lie de la Poer Beresford died at mid
night. He was born July 20, 1S47.
Lord William Beresford was noted for
his great daring as a soldier and a
horseman. He was offered the Victoria
Cross by the Queen for services rem
dered in the Zulu war. This he re-
fused until the same honor was Of
sered to his gallant comrade in arms,
Sergeant O'Toolc. During the Zulu war
Lord Beresford was sent out to recon-
hotter. A swarm Of savages in am
bush behind the rocks rushed upon
him when he was more than two miles
from the British lines. When Beres-
ford turned his horses head he found
himself hedged in, but he galloped in
the direction Of the redcoats sent out
TO help him. Under q cloud of poi
soned assegais he was making his way
toward the camp when he saw a
wounded soldier on the ground Dis
mounting quickly, he put his arm
around the soldiers body and urged
him to rise. The wounded man pro.
tested that there was no use in sac
rificing two lives when one might be
saved, and refused to accept assistance.
Thereupon Beresford threatened to
blow his brains out If he didn't let him
self be lifted on the horse. With a ire
mendous effort Beresford placed the
soldier in front of him in the saddle
Then with sword in one hand and re-
volver in the other he renewed the
gallop, while the black fellows kept
right on hurting their spears. When
things were at their worst mounted
soldier dashed out to the rescue and
the trio got safely into camp.

London, Dec. 31-There has been a

went on the Penrhos rocks, three
miles off Southstack, not far from
Holy Head. She broke in two and
went to pieces in few minutes. Only
one man out of the crew of thirty-five
was saved by lifeboat. Some time
before she struck the Primrose Hill
dropped her anchors, but mountainous
seas were running. No sooner had the
Inflated ship touched the rocks than

and she broke in twain, leaving only
the foremost standing. Three minutes
later this went also. The vessel was
soon smashed up. The Hibernia stood
by throughout, but was powerless to
aid. The Holyhead steam lifeboat
made three vain Attempts to reach the
Primrose Hill. The lat, ,r's crew was
huddled on the poop, when a huge sea
dashed over the vessel, washing all
away, save the one sailor, who was
finally hurled against the rocks, sus-
tanning terrible injuries.
A Spanish steamer was driven ashore
at Portland breakwater. The Wey-
mouth lifeboat attempted to rescue her
crew, but the fearful seas running pre-
vented them. The endangered vessel

occurred. The gale Is so furious in
