The events that led to the establish

the Indian Archipelago. He visited

effectual attempts to subdue them. Mr.
Brooke lent his assistance, and after d
series Of terrible conflicts succeeded in
crushing the iusurrectiOn. For this
service he was created Rajah and
presented with large portion Of the
kingdom, with Sarawak as the center
Rajah Brooke set vigorously to work
reforming the people, and although
Obliged to contend with much opposi-
ton on the part of his subjects. finally
accomplished his object to a fair de-
gree.

death of the latter. assumed the sover-
eighty Of Sarawak. Sir Charles re-

highly trained men. and recruited from
the various tribes Of natives under his
rule. He also possesses small but
wholly adequate navy. Besides these
he has many thousands of irregulars
who may be called upon in emergen-
cies. as in the case Of the recent un-
lucky expedition.

he was scarcely beyond the three-quar-

Splendid Book Departments :

. Recent changes have placed the book
and stationery department Of the New
Store in a position where it will be much
better equipped than heretofore to meet
the increasing demands made upon it,
Until recently this department was leased
by the firm, but Is now directly under
their control, having been enlarged and
reinforced by the addition of several new
lines of standard works. The current
copyright books are now to be found on
the shelves and counters Of this depart
ment as well as a complete line of all
magazines and periodicals.
The stationery counters, also, have not
been overlooked in the recent improve
ments, many dainty novelties in this line
having been added to an already well Sc
lected stock. That book-lovers appreciate
the improvement and convenience in Sc
lection which has resulted from the recent
additions is becoming more evident daily.
