A"oWh Lord Chugmough to keen in
one direction very long, and It was
hishiy probable that II a search-party
WAS sent on to the north Lord Chug-
ihoush would calmly walk into camp
from the south. and then 1t would be
necessary to send out another party
10 recover the first one.
so they waited. and continued to
walt until 1t became the unanimous
opinion OF the party that Lord Chug-
mough and William had been killed or
lost their way. and the indecision of
sir Gallopins Grace and George. Wis
count Elsmere. gave way to a firm de-
termination TO go In search OF their
companion. But this resolve was nulli-
ned by the refusal OF the guides to go
a step.
NO. senor." said one of them. "it
would be dangerous. See thcrer"
Sir Galloping followed the index
finger OF the guide with his glance.
and at once began to fear, not only for
Lord Chugmough's safety. but for his
own and evcrybody's.
For the guide was not without rca-
son In refusing to go farther Into
danger.
The sky. which had so far been de-
cent enough. clear now and then. with
Intermittent rain clouds. was now
frightfui to behold.
Grca; banks Of hidcoux biackncxs
were rolling and tumbiins toward
them. and the Wind. which had sud
denly risen. Increased to the force Of
n tempest.
TO shclter!" cried one Of the guides.
"franciseo's house is not far away.
Follow me-"
Forgetting Lord chusmoush and ev-
crythins else save their own impend-
ins danger. they mounted their piuns-
ins. snortin. horses and followed their
fleeing guides over the lon. grass. now
nattcncd to the ground by the wind.

and cement. where Pedro Francisco
had his home.
Pedro. as We know. was away from
home. but his housc.scrvants vel
coined the Ensi!shmcn and gave them
shelter. and Il was not n moment too
soon that they reached tho friendly
roof.
The wind increased In fury. the
clouds grew biaekcr and thicker and
ovcrsprcad the sky. and then there
came downpour Of rain such as
Venezuela had never known before.

flowed north into the orinoso ;nmblcsi

those on the south until tho rrca;

A most exciting career has been that
OF Sir Rudolph slatin. better known
as Slatin Pasha. He left Vienna. his
birthplace, when a lad OF II. to become
a clerk in commercial house in Cal.
ro. and six years later came under the
notice of Gordon. who appointed him
governor OF Darfur. In this position
he became known as "The Hammer OF
the Arabs" owing to his many VIC
tories over the turbulent tribes. but in
1888 he had to surrender to the Mahdi
Then began an imprisonment that
lasted till 1895. when, by secret aid
from the authorities at Cairo. Slatin
managed TO escape. The late queen
had Sir Rudolf at Windsor several
times to hear him relate his adven-
lures.

Heroic Firemen started TO Remove

One of the thrilling features OF the
fire was the herosm exhibited by AS
sistant Chief Edward Mccarthy, Cap
tain ]. w. Love, Otto Witbeck and
Amos Moreton.
Lying in bed at his home, 2S6 West
Second North street. Is Assistant Chief
Mccarthy. congratulating himself upon
his miraculous escape from a horrible

pale from the great loss OF blood
which flowed from ugly gashes in his
forehead and left leg captain Love
had the main artery Of his right hand
severed. and Fireman Witbeck and
Moreton are nursing badly cut hands
and arms.
When a News" man called al the
home OF Assistant chief Mccarthy
this morning he found him in the con-
dillon described above. His physician
had left orders TO admit no one but
Mr.. Mccarthy said he was feeling
stronger and could talk.

how badly | was hurt. The blood was
streaming down my face and my boot

got In the buggy with me and we went
up to Smiths drug store"
Chief Mccarthy said they were at
the drug store fully thirty minutes be-
fore they could get doctor. Then Dr.
Giesy showed up. In the meantime
blood was streaming from his wounds
and making a great pool upon the floor
Just as Or. Glesy arrived, Mccarthy
tainted and did not revive until the
doctor was making the finishing Stitches
In his wounds. II required four
stitches 10 close up the gaping cut In
the head and three In the calf OF his
leg He says he hasn't the remotest
idea what struck him, but he ls post
tive he received both wounds at the
same instant. The condition OF Nc
Carthy's helmet tells eloquently OF the
force Of the blow he received, for the
helmet Is crushed In as though II were
made Of paper. After his wounds were
sewed up. Mccarthy insisted on going
back 70 the FIRE. Not needing the re-
mpnstrance Of his friends. he went back
TO the fire and for two hours worked
like hero. Finally he b.
came so weak he could scarcely
stand, and when Chief Devine noticed
his condition he at once ordered him
home He drove TO Godbe-Pltts drug
store and from there was removed 10
his home by DR.. Witcher. In the mean
time the other flremen had their in
juries attended to and were back on
duty.
Asked II he thought there was more
powder in the supply company's place
than allowed by law, Chief Mccarthy
very emphatlcally replied:
"No! / think there was some giant
powder and possibly some giant caps
there he said. but ! am quite sure
there was no black powder there be-
cause there was no raise to the ex-
plosion"
He said that Chief Devine had a mar
row escape. and but for the fact that
he was looking for Can't Workman he
would undoubtedly have been in
the explosion.
Mccarthy said In his opinion the fire
started In the rear and center Of the
building and had a good start before
they could get to It. The volume Of
smoke In the basement was so dense
the men could only work few minutes
at a time.
II is believed the injured men will be
able 10 report for duty within a few
days. The most serious injury sus-
tanned by Mccarthy is the cash in his
head above the right eye. One OF the
arteries is severed as clean as though
done by razor. He says II will al
WAYS remain mystery to him as to
