WORSHIPEO AS A GOD.
An English General Who Was Del
fed by East Indians.

John Nicholson, British colonel and
brigadier general, was once worshiped
as a god. He was the eldest son Of
Alexander Nicholson, a physician of
Dublin. This gallant soldier distin-
guished himself in the Punjab cam
paign of 1S4S-49, when he was appoint
ed a deputy commissioner of the an
nexed Punjab under Sir Henry Law
renee. AT Bannu, dealing wisely with
an ignorant and bloodthirsty people, he
evolved in the course of five years such
order and respect for law that murder
and highway robbery, previously so
rife, were unknown in the district.
He so impressed his powerful per-
sonality on the natives that he became
to them a demigOd, and in HaZara a
brotherhood Of fakirs in 1S4S instituted
q religious cult for the worship of "Ni-
kal-Seyn," which continued to flourish
in spite of Nicholson's efforts to sup
press it even by punishment.
At q moment of victory during the
siege of Delhi in 1857 this hero fell
mortally wounded in the street while
leading his men. He died few days
later on the 23d of September, 1857,
and was buried in front of the Kash-
mir gate.

AN OLD SUPERSTITION.
The Practice of Consulting Scripture
q Book of Fate.

The practice of consulting Scripture
as book of fate was generally con-
demned by the church. A council at
Vannes pronounced against it in 461
A. d. So did one at Agde in sos and
one at Auxerre in 5S5. Charles the
Great forbade 1t in his capitularies.
and so did Pope Gregory IL. Never
theless curiosity as to the future was
so strong in mems minds that the GUS
tom continued.
An odd circumstance is that the
cathedral chapter at Orleans in TAG
appealed to a prOgnOstic of this sort in
q supplication addressed by them to
Pope Alexander III. against their bish-
op. At his conservation, when the gos-
pei was opened above his head, the
finger Of the deacon rested upon the
words, "And he left the linen cloth and
fed from them naked" This was a
token that the bishop Elias was to be
turned out Of his see.
The practice Of observing the book
when opened over the head of a prel-
ate at his conservation was very COM
mon. It was thought that a sure au-
gury could thence be drawn as to what
sort of a bishop he would prove.-Cham-
bcrs' Journal

EnSIand's First Railroad.

The travelling on the first railroad in
England was not very comfortable un-
doubtedly. The coaches were at first
only coupled with chains. as wagons
are now, SO that they jerked the un-
fortunate passengers nearly off their
seats at starting and clashed violently
against each other when the driver put
on his brake. When fairly in motion,
if the speed was any but the slowest,
the very short wheel base produced a
pitching action so trying that if the
journey had not been a short one it
would have seriously affected the pop
ularity OF the railway as a means OF
passenger transit.

ARE YOU A K. OF P? IF NOT
WHY NOT?

L hope this will awaken in the colorad
people a just pride for the Order %
Knights of Pythias. Its past fauls have
been corrected. For the Negro if bas
had no equal since Syracuse gave to
the world, that which will live to the
end of time. A Society representing
the three links of F. c. B., that bind rs
so closely together in every sense of the
word. The order was re-incorporated
IN the District of Columbia, December
18th, 1903, with such honorable men
at its head as S. w. Starks, of West
Virginia, Supreme Chancellor, S. A. r
Watkins of Chicago, Ills, Supreme At
torney and several others, some of the
leading men of the race. All Lodges in
the District of Columbia have been
placed under the Supreme Lodge with
a death benefit for each member of from
$50 to $3.50. 1t is easy to sail on the
smooth waters of life, but when the
winds of adversely blow, and the bill
lows of troble and sorrow are sweeDing
over us, is the time for the demonstra-
ton of the three letters, that bind us
together IN this grand order Some
very good men have gone out, but will
come back. There are others who can't
get back; our strength has been greatly
increased by the new order of things.
and we hope to continue increasing by
taking in young blood
Activity and vigor will be enffused in
to the Order in the District of Columbia.
We care for the members of the Order,
the widows and orphans of those deceas-
ed. We pay from So to S. sick benefits
per week. Joining fee in clubs of not
less than twenty persons, not over AZ
years, $3.50 each. | will organize a new
Lodge giving you all the benefits of the
Order. The four departments are as
follows (Ist) The Subordinate Lodge.
In this members are united to care for
and protect each other in health, as well
as in sickness and distress (2nd) Uni
form Rank. 1nthis departments our
young men are receiving a military edt1-
cation, which makes them better and
more useful citizens. (3rd) Ladies
Court In this the wives, mothers.
daughters, widows, and sisters of
Knights are united for the common pur-
poses of life. (4ht). Endowments. In
this department we are paying out thous-
ands of dollars annually to the widows
and heirs of deceased Knights. Each
member receives from this department
5000 at death. 1t comes from the Su-
preme Lodge. 1t is not a local affair.

coRBETT AND o'BRIEN.

New York, August 1G.-James ]. Cor.
bett and Philadelphia" Jack OBrlen,
two Of the cleverest boxers in the ring
today. have been matched. The pair
signed articles today in the American
office to fight six rounds in Philadel.
phia on or before September 9Th. The
men will split the purse. There is no
weight stipulation in the articles. Soft
bandages will be allowed.
II was only after long talk that the
willy ex-champion and the shrewd Phil.
adelphian came TO terms. Sharp re,
torts were exchanged as they discussed
the proposed battle and for a time II
looked as II there were little chance
OF an agreement, but when each had
made what he considered a sharp bar.
gain signatures were affixed to the
document binding them to fight. They
shook hands, cautioned each other to
take care of himself and departed to
begin preparations for the fray. The
serious hitch was the weight. O'Brien
wanted 175 pounds as the limit and so
per cent Of the purse for his share.
Corbett on the other hand, thought he
should get the big end of the money,
After some palavering 1t was decided
that O'Brien could fight at catch
weights in consideration of Corbett ac
cepting an even division of the purse
The bids for the fight close next Thurs.
day with Harry Bepcher snortinp a1i
tor of the New York American.

BASEBALL FAN is DEFINED
Resembles Both the Human Being and
the Dumb Animal.

A fan is an animal.
1t walks upright, has two feet, two
hands. two eyes, two ears, a mouth,
and a nose.
In this respect it resembles a human
being
1t has no heart or soul-when the
home team is losing.
Feed it on the meat of victory and it
puTrs contentedly like other denizens
of the field and jungle.
But give it the bare bone of defeat
and it roars savagely. flashing it's sun
blistered hide in great rage and agony
of spirit.
One day it has the glad hand work
ing overtime. The next day may be
the cloven hOof and the mailed gaunt-
let.
In its gentler moments the atmOS-
phere is thrilled with the CrOOnings
and buzZings of honeyed melodies.
When aroused there comes cyclon-
ic cataclysm of vocal and wordy up
heavals alike unto the roaring of an
angry lion whose bunioned paw has
been crushed by n trespasser.-Atlan-

MAKE THEIR HOMES PRETTY
Block of BouIeVarding on Eleventh
Street Attracts Attention.

People in other sections of the city
can learn something by stroll along
Eleventh street between Ninth and
Tenth avenues. There they will find
suggestion for the beautifying of their
boulevards that speaks volumes for
the progressiveness of the property
owners of the thoroughfare in ques-
ton. The bouIevarding has been done
on the east side of the street. Here
and there is a bed of flowers, and the
boulevards are enclosed by neat rail
ing. The improvement adds wonder
fully to the attractiveness of the block,
and displays a regard for the beautiful
among the occupants of modest homes
that people of much larger means
might cultivate with profit to them
selves and the city they live in.
