Kuroki VS. Sir Hector Macdonald

A curious tale going the rounds of
by every native that general Kuroki,
the marvellous Japanese commander,
is no other than Sir Hector Macdon-
aid. Many persons have never believed
that the brilliant general is dead, and
not long ago there appeared in the
London Times an offer of a reward of
$4,000 to any who had seen his dead
body.
1t is also a fact that Sir Hector was
once invited to go to Japan to train
the Japanese army, and he actually
mentioned it to Lord Roberts. No
honor has ever been publicly bestowed
on Kuroki, who appears to have van
ished as suddenly and mysterionsly as
he appeared.
Even the Japanese, with all their
Ieticence, confessed to a correspon-
dent that 'Kuroki had much foreign
blood in him, and the American jour-
nalist declared he was Dutchman.
Rudyard K1pling first lifted the veil
sh owing little of the mysterious
workings of the Indian bazaar. The
celebrity with which they spread the
rumors of events taking place at great
distance is familiar to all Anglo In
dian residents, but invariably battling
to them. The mutiny of the Sepoys
was known throughout India almost
as soon as it occurred, and it has
been an unexplained mystery up to
date how the information was so rap
idly disseminated.
Both the life and death of SirHector
Macdonald were tull of romance and
mystery. His exact age is not known;
the circumstances of his death and
burial are obscure. What is known is
that Macdonald was Scottish CT otter
lad, that he enlisted IN 1871, and that
he served in the ranks ten years. His
raise to major general and K. G. B.
was the result of pure soldering.
In the Afghan campaign. at Cabul,
on Majuba hill and at Omdurman he
won fights and fame. After the Boer
war he was given high command in
India and then in 1908 came the re-
port that he had suddenly left Hindu
stan ION private business. -
On this business he reached Paris,
and there read in newspaper that he
was to stand court martial on grave
charges. Then came the report that
Immediately on reading this paragraph
he went to his room and shot himself.
At first it was decided that the gen.
eral was to be buried in Paris, but
new surprise appeared in the person
of his widow, of whose existence the
war office did not know. By the ex-
press wish of Lady Macdonald the

While the property loss in San
Francisco is probably much greater
than that caused ty the great fire in
Chicago, which was $3.50, 900, 900, the
area burned ovel is not much larger.
The burned district in Chicago en-
braced 2,124 acres. The area swept by
flames in San Francisco was at first
said to be equal to seven square miles
or 2, $50 acres.
The historical great fire of London
was comparatively small, as it burned
over an area of but 436 acres. Most
of the buildings destroyed we're cheap
wooden structures. The burning of
Moscow in 1872 was much greater
confiagrat1on, and the loss was esti-
mated at $3.50, OOO,O 900, but it saved
Russia from Napoleon. The fire losses
in Paris during the days of the Com

Queer Facts About Steel.

Although the steel and iron indus
try is one of the mightiest of the
world and offers such rewards that
some of The greatest chemists and
other scientists study nothing else,
there are lots of apparently simple
puzzles about it that no one has been
able to solve yet. The man who dis
covers the right answer to one or more
of them may make 81, 900, 900 out of it.
Every one who handles steel knows
that it gets ''tired" at times. After
piece of steel has been subjected to
severe strain for a certain period it
may suddenly show decided weak
ness. Then the experts say that it is
tired and so it is, for it is allowed
to rest while and it regains its old
strength.
Recently it has been tonud that a
steel beam can be made stronger by
increasing the load on it gradually
in other words. by exercising it just
as man exercises his muscles when
he wishes to make them stronger.
Very often new steel will not pass
tests that it should pass, but after g
few weeks it is found that it has
grown better and passes the tests
beautifully. Then, again, steel that
was perfect when it was tested otter
gets "sick.'' 1t cracks or become.
brittle, although other steel made al
the same time in the same way re
mains perfectly good. No man know
today why these things happen, bu
lots of people are trying to find out
says an exchange.

with MS uncle on that day, taking
only quarter, with which to buy
his dinner. Morgan tells of one poor
fellow who was buried in nearby
creek. In passing the spot he saw
a pair of boots, apparently in good
condition protruding from the mud
and water. He made an investiga-
tion, and found the corpse of mur-
dered man.
The members of the vigilantes we're
men, mostly farmers, from Labette,
Montgomery and Cherokee counties,
Kansas. They were determined to
avenge the deaths of the nine persons
whose bodies they had unearthed on
the Bender farm. Had the Benders
been overtaken they would have met
instant death, and this is the fate
which it is generally believed was met
by the family. Several expeditions
have been fitted out at various times,
however, in search for the Benders,
and once within the past three yeal s
the entire family was reported living
in New Mexico.
Notwithstanding the story of the
BendeIs, as related by Morgan, there
is one account of their flight, which
heretofore has generally been accept
ed as correct, to the effect that they
were overtaken near the Verdigris
river and all killed by the vigilantes.
That with the exception of odd John
Bender, the others met death bravely,
but that he confessed and grovelled
in the dust, asking that he be not
killed; that Kate Bender fought like
tiger and had to be shot, the suppo-
sition being that the others we're
hanged; that she cursed the old man
tor his confession and for being
coward.
All the murders committed by the
Benders were for the purpose of rob-
berry. Financial gain was their only
reason for killing in cold blood each
solitary traveller that passed that way.
How many we're killed will never be
known. Their main plan of operation
was to, murder person while the vic
tim was sitting at the table eating.
The stranger was always given chair
with his back to a cnrtain, which pre-
sumably divided the room. Whether
in the daytime or at night, the light
so struck the curtain as to silhouette
the victims body, and it was then an
easy task to locate the victim s hetd
and strike him with an AK, while he
was the least suspecting. After the
first blow through the curtain with an
Ak it was not difficult to finish the
job. The bodies Mere buried after be-
ing robbed.
An abandoned we'll on the old Ben
der farm near Mortimer, and ten
miles norh of Cherryvale, in which it
had been reported by DIR James A. De
Moss that the bodies of the notorious
family we're deposited and the we'll fil-
led with stones to depth of Is feet,
was overhauled recently, but no trace
of the bodies was found. At depth
of IS or 20 feet the solid rock bottom
of the we'll was struck without disclos-
ing anything relative to the bodies.
DR.. De Moss, in published statement
early in March last, said that he had
the word of one who claimed to have
been an eyewitness to the burial of
the bodies of the Benders in the we'll.
