H&X northern Somaliland
sNS that the forces OF the
Fx%l ~ Mad Molah had been
Wn0A routed, his vast herds
IN&b captured and many OF
al his fanatical followers
slain. 1t was also pre-
dcted by the British
war office that within a few days the
Mad Mollah would be either captured
or killed. In short according to the
official announcements, the Mad Mollah
as factor In the affairs of,northern
Somalland had already as good as
ceased to exist
Now however, the British war office
has been compelled TO admit that the
molah Is stlll very live Issue. That
erratic individual recently impressed
that fact upon the English In the most
convincing manner possible, After the
mollah had been defeated last spring II
was decided that II was as well that
clean Job be made Of the affair; so Eng
land sent large number Of seasoned
troops to run the enemy 10 earth and
make good that valnglorlous prediction
OF the war office. This force was In
command Of Colonel Swayne, an officer
of tried quality, whose previous expe-
rlence was thought TO particularly
qualify him for the work In hand. But
Colonel Cobbe Swayne's immediate In
ferior caught Tartar when he caught

did not wait 10 be caught, but most dis
courteously carried the war to Cobbe,
Result. 20 Brhishers killed and about
100 wounded, and the mollah Is stll
running"
But, barring some Unforeseen cir
cumstanee, the career Of the mollah Is
destined to be a short one. for England
Is at last thoroughly aroused, and her
forces will be increased sufficiently to
make the result of any clash between
the fanatics and the Britishers a fore
gone conclusion. The force recently
defeated was under the direct command
Of Colonel Cobbe, although, as already
mentioned, Colonel Swayne was In SUI
preme command Of the troops operat-
ing in Somalland. His successor, Cen
eral Manning, has about 5000 men. The
mollah is reported to have about $4,000
fighting men with him, TO say nothing
OF the 5000 or more who are said to be
willing to enlist under his standard as
soon as the occasion seems to demand
their presence.

JOHN c. BONWELL.

Among the prominent and influential
men OF Audubon county is John @. Bon
well, of Viola township, member Of the
county board OF supervisors and repub-
lican candidate for reelection. Mr..
Bonwell was nominated for that position
three years ago and, running against one
of the strongest men Of the opposite party,
was elected by good majority. His
nearly three years service has fully JUS
titled what his friends claimed for him.
His unanimous denomination without a
word Of opposition in the county, when
nomination practically means an cleo.
ton, is surely good endorsement.
Mr.. Bonwell was born in Highland
county, Ohio, and is IS years old. He
attended common school and later at
tended Lebanon Normal College. the
famous school OF old Prof. Holbrook.
When the national peril came he enlisted
in the Union army doing his full duties
as soldier for three years, a portion Of
which time was spent in a rebel prison.
After the war he came to Iowa, stopping
in Jasper county and teaching school
several years. He then came to Extra

and engaged in the grocery and drug
business some time. In 1875 he sold
out there and bought his Viola township
land, moving thereon and living there
since. By energy and good management
he has accumulated competence and
his farm OF 700 acres is now very we'll
improved and is one OF the most valuable
farm properties in Audubon county.
The example Of successful career like
Mr.. Bonwell's is an inspiration TO every
boy who knows Of it. A country school
boy, college student, soldier in de-
tense of his country, school teacher,
merchant, farmer and stock raiser
owning and operating big Iowa farm,
man taking an interest in public affairs
and trusted leader in the republican
party, such career is representative of
the best citizenship Of our republic.
The office Of member of the board OF
supervisors is perhaps the most import
ant county Office. The qualifications
needed for member are of higher and
more varied character than in the other
officee. A supervisor needs to under
stand the book keeping employed in the
various Offices, he needs TO be good &C.
countant himself, he should be practi-
cal business man and know the price of
building material, provisions and every.
thing the county buys, he should have
good Judgment, all around ability and
courage. Mr.. Bonwell is we'll qualified
in all these particulars. He is as good
public servant as the county has had in
many years. He has had experience
which, in that office is invaluable. He
is man ofintegrity. He should be re-
elected by an overwhelming vote.

Bells.

1t was long a fixed idea that silver
mixed with the bell metal improved
the tone, but this is now considered in
correct. The Acton Nightingale and
Silver Bell, two singularly sweet bells
at st. Johns college, Cambridge, are
said to have a mixture of silver, but
IL true this is not believed by compe-
tent authorities to be the cause Of their
beautiful tone. This idea led to the
story of the monk Tandio concealing
the silver given him by Charlemagne
and casting the bell in the monastery
of st. Paul of inferior metal, where
upon he was struck by the clapper and
, killed. In the ninth century bells were
made In France of iron. They have
been cast in steel, and the tone has
been found nearly equal in fineness to
that of the bell metal, but, having less
vibration, was deficient in length, and
thick glass bells have been made which
give beautiful sound, but are too brit
tie to long Withstand the strokes Of the
clapper.-Gentleman Magazine.

sensatory Transmission.

It has been found that sensation is
not absolutely instantaneous, but that
a very minute time elapses as it travels
along the nerves. Therefore, if a per-
son put his finger to a heated iron or
in the blaze of candle there is a GER
tain almost inconceivably small space
of time, say the one-thousandth part of
second, before the brain knows Of
the burn. Now, suppose a man with
an arm long enough to reach the sun.
From the known rate of sensatory
transmission that man would have to
live more than 100 years after touching
the great luminary before he would
know that his fingers had been
scorched!

HE GOT THE GOODS.
A Business Deal Between Potter
Palmer and A. T. Stewart.

n busfness Deal between Potter
Palmer and A. T. Stewart.
"At the time Of the civil war;" said
an old merchant, Potter Palmer was
in the dry goods business in Chicago,
and Levi z. Letter and Marshall Field
were working for him. Palmer wasn't
so well known, but he had a good rep
utation in the trade, and he didn't have
to introduce himself when he called on
old A. T. Stewart to buy some goods.
After some dickering they agreed upon
the price, and Palmer calmly said that
he would take about 100000 worth.
1t was little larger bill than Stewart
exactly cared to sell young Palmer on
credit, but he concluded to make the
deal and told him to come in the next
morning and arrange some final de-
tails. That night some big war news
came, and it didn't require any decla-
cry dry goods man in the country that
the price of goods would take a big
squirt up. Stewart recognized 1t as soon
as he had the news, and he Immediate
ly thought of Palmer. He also thought
Of the big bill of goods Palmer had
bought of him. 1t didn't particularly
tickle Stewart, that thought didn't.
But it required only few scratches
of his red head to fix things to his sat
isfaction. He would simply tell Pal
mer that he was sorry, but that he
didn't feel that he could sell such a
big bill on credit, and as he knew that
Palmer couldn't raise the cash imme-
diately, why, that would end 1t, and
the sale would be off. Well, young
Palmer called early, and Stewart
greeted him in his very abruptest man.

ness TO extend credit Tor such an
amount.
"'Just how much does the bill come
tor said young Palmer, seemingly sor-
rowful-like.
"'Just $110,O00,' Stewart replied, and
then he straightway gulped for breath
as young Palmer drew an immense
pocketbook from his inside vest pocket
and, opening it, counted out 10 thou
sand dollar bills and, laying them quiet
ly on Stewards desk, said: If you will
kindly count them and give me re-
ceipt, I'll be obliged, as must take the

The Inventor of the Match.

The first match was the product of
the ingenuity Of John Frederick Kom-
erer, who early in the nineteenth CEN

tiary at Hohenasperg, in Germany. He
invented the lucifer match while in his
gloomy dungeon. The German govern
ment forbade the manufacture of
matches on the ground of public policy,
because some children playing with
them had caused a fire. Komerer was

he was released from prison and died
