THINGS FAR OUT OF PLACE
Silver Fork on an African Pigmy's
Neck and an Eyeglass at
Khartoum.

Many Of the rifles found in the
possession of the dead Thibetans,
discovered after the recent battle
of Tuns, were of Russian make.
thus conveying an obvious sugges-
ton which serves to indicate the
reason of Britain's advance into
the forbidden land, says Stray
Stories.
One of the officers on Col.
Younghusband's staff writes to a
friend that they Ire frequently
finding objects which r strange
ly out of place. A few months
ago, when they were at Khamba-
jong, this officer picked up a pair
of gloves, bearing the name of a
well-known London maker;
while in the Tang Pass a private
picked up a small, well-thumbed
English dictionary with a carte
de-visite of a young Englishman
pasted on the fly leaf.
AT the battle of Khartoum,
when Lord Kitchener finally broke
the power of the mahdi, upon one
of the dead dervishes was found a
single eyeglass of undoubted May
fair cut. How did the dervish
come by it?
Henry M. Stanley had in his
library at Richmond terrace.
Whitehall, many curious find;
which he came across in his wan
behring's across the dark continent
of Africa. One was a silver plat
ed fork, bearing the rame of 8
fashionable London restaurant
This fork was found in a part Of
Africa which had never before
been trodden by the foot of !;
white man till Stanley arrived
there with his little band. A pig
my, whose tribe was unknown til
then, was wearing the fork arount
his neck as an ornament.
Emin Pasha, in his memoirs
relates that one of the creates
glories of an Abyssinian chief hi
knew was a George III. wig, which
adorned the chiefs head on yer,
!, special occasions. How he came
by it was a mystery even to Emf,
Pasha himself. This headpiec.
bore the name of a London maker
A sergeant who was present a
the fall of the native fort at Chi
trail picked up a money lender
circular Of comparatively recen
date. How it found it's way int
that distant region of India will
ever remain a mystery.

GLASS INDUSTRY.
Steady Diminution Has Of Late Been
Caused by American Com
petition.

Recently Etoile Beige published
an interesting article on the crisis
in the glass industry in Belgium,
from which the following is ex.
tracted:
During many years the glass
industry of Belgium has rapid;
increased. Jealous of us, the
United States, formerly our trib
utary, developed the industry
mostly with our workmen, who
emigrated in great numbers and
finally formed in America a union.
which was successful in disputes
with the employers. Initiating
the example, Belgium glass work
ers, on October l, 1894, formed a
federation called the New Glass
union. Instead, however, of re-
naming a union to resist the re-
duction of salaries or to assist in
raising them, it became purely a
political machine and an arm of
oppression. Later, certain work
men tried to escape from the yoke,
and in their turn founded, in 1858.
opposing unions. In 1900 the
union attempted to force the Sc,
ceders back, and the directors and
owners of the glassworks refusing
to aid them, a general strike en-.
sued July /, 1900. After a long
time the owners gave in, but not
before France and England had
become formidable competitors.
"In1902w we exported 377,802,9 0S
pounds of window glass, valued at
$9,807, $50. In 1908 the figures fell
to 1863, 764,0 TO- pounds, and $685.

cHINA'S BOWS AND ARROWS
Only IN Past Few Weeks Has This
Mode of Warfare Been Aban-
doned in the Orient.

Though an attempt was made
two years ago to abolish bows
and arrows as the national weap.
ms OF China the work has onlv
been accomplished within the last
few weeks, asserts the Chicago
Daily News. The imperial archers
have existed up to the time the
royal edict put them out of bust
less about a month ago. The en-
peror's decree is as follows: "Our
dynasty was established by means
OF the bow and arrow and the art
is still therefore kept up in the ex-
animation of officials and the
drilling of troops. Lately, how
ever, military science has i'm
proved and weapons are being
modernized everydayand we must
initiate the martial spirit of our
ancestors by using our best en-.
deavors to establish a strong gov.
eminent.
thereafter the princes, dukes
and ministers of the eight ban.
ners must all earnestly practice
military art and attain the utmost
proficiency, which will leave no
time for the observance of mere
forms, and we order all officials in
future not to carry the bow and
arrow when they attend state
ceremonials, nor are imperial
body guards or the palace guards
to $ them, but the best weapons
must be provided for them.
"Let the board of war draw nm
the necessary regulations for the
proper testing of military eff.
cheney for the soldiers and let the
said board report thereon"

HORSES HEART BREAKS.
Former Charger Of Gen. Boulanger
Dies In Most Tragic
Manner.

A column of troops marched
past the Alsace column in the
Place de la Concorde, Paris, the
other day with drums beating and
flies playing, says a recent Paris
report.
A broken-down old black horse
drawing a cart heaped up with
vegetables, heard the music and
saw the soldiers.
In the seat of the cart, half
asleep in the blazing sun, was
Nine. Lecocq, who had been to
Paris market to buy supplies for
her grocery store.
At the sound of the drums and
the sight of the red-legged sol
diers in the Place de la Concorde
the old horse came to life. He
pranced and trotted at the head of
the marching column, nearly
shaking Nine. Lecocq off the seat.
Half way across the square the
horse stopped. His knees gave
way, and he fell dead with his
heart broken. Nine. Lecocq was
thrown to the ground. The sol
diers marched around the wreck
and laughed.
In front of the Alsace column,
just II years ago, almost to a day,
this same black horse nearly up
set the government of France. On
that day he pranced through the
Place de la Concorde carrying on
his back Gen. Boulanger, then the
idol of the masses, who came with
in an ace of being another Napo-
leon. They called Boulanger "the
man on horseback"
The man died an exiled suicide
in Brussels. The horse lived on
in humble oblivion until it died on
the scene of it's great triumph.

Just before leaving Americas kind

particular.
The maharajah said: "As in any
country as new as this society is
bound to be somewhat crude. What
you call the higher class, as we'll as
the middle class, we found exceeding

admit, however, very frequently we

vulgarity.
