Battle Of the Pyramids.

The Battle of the Pyramids was one
of the Napoleonic conflicts. 1t was
the elimination of French expedi-
ton, which set sail in command of
Napoleon in 1898 for the conquest of
Egypt. The French Directory hap.
pened to be profoundly worried just
at that time by the great popularity
of the young Corsican soldier, and so
thought to get rid of him by sending
him on an expedition which might
promise to give him his finish.
But the indomitable Napoleon took
Alexandria and then trimphed over
Mourad Bey at the pyramids, despite
the fact that the British admiral, Mel.
son, had destroyed the French fleet
at Aboukir. Napoleon soon was mas
ter of Egypt, but just at the height of
his triumph he suddenly quit his army
and set sail for France. The British
warships came close to capturing him,
but he finally reached Paris, turning
up there unexpectedly, much to the
discontinue of the Directory, which
had become highly unpopular.
The cunning Napoleon lost no time
in beginning the intrigue that was to
make him first consul of France the
following year, 1899.

The MulIet In Gulf Waters.

The mullet has always attracted a
goodly share Of attention. His fame
is not circumscribed by the boundaries
of the gulf. Whether the visitor be
from the Atlantic or the Pacific coast
or from the shores Of the Mediterran-
can or the Baltic, he wants to see, ex.
anime and feast on the mullet.
He is the best known fish that
swims. Some have prejudice against
him, but like all feelings of this ma
ture, 1t rests on an unsubstantial foun.
dation. 1t cannot bear investigation,
for the mullet plays create. part
in appeasing the craving for sea foods
than any fish that inhabits the waters
of the gulf. He is here in summer
and winter, in fall and in spring.
When the fisherman contemplates his
plight, when luck is against him and
feeling of depression creeps over
him, the mullet, always ready to give
him helping hand, rushes into his
seine and contributes to his fortune
and to the gastronomic pleasure Of
the thousands of people to whom they
are shipped. He is a regular standby.
In prosperity and in adversely he is
always in abundance. - ascagoula

TOWN Of FAMED PIED PIPER
Little City Of Germany Around Which
Cling Associations Of Much
Attraction.

FOR those who are contemplating q
holiday in Germany for the first time
l can imagine no happier choice than
the town made so familiar to English
readers by Browning's ballad of the
pied Piper" writer in T. P.'s Week
~ says. AS a holiday resort it has
thousand and one advantages, besides
the fact, which must be ever dear to
the true Browning lover that one is
treading the same streets down which
the piper piped of old the rats to the
Weser and the children to the hole in
the hill. Indeed, these streets would
seem to have changed little during the
lapse of centuries. Still the quaint old
medieval gables lean out over the
road and the bizarre old streets lead
one into unexpected hooks. Then the
town is In the province of Hanover,
where the purest German exists; in.
deed, like Indre-et-Loire in France,
Hanover is famo ior it's purity of
accent. Again, it IS cheap; SO cheap
that it will not cost so much as the
eternal English seaside resort. 1t has
also the additional charm of being
quite unique in it's way, something
novel to English eyes. 1t has become
customary to talk about the souls"
OF towns; the canals and bells, for
instance, are the soul of Bruges, and
so on. And If one may apply the ex-
preston to little town of 10000 in.
habitants Hameln (for so Browning's
Hamlin town appears on the German
maps), too, has soul of it's own. And
over its inhabitants it seems to have
a potent inf1uence-the influence of a
soul expressed in legendary past
that is still vital in it's medieval
streets and buildings.

FAR IN THE NORTH
MISSIONS FOUNDED IN THE LAND
OF THE EsklMos.
Spread Of Christianity Has Been
Marked Among People Of the Most
lnhospitabIe Land on the
Earth,

Rev. DR.. R. ]. Renison, rector of St.
Paul's Episcopal church, speaking here
before a large congregation on mis-
sionary work among the Eskimos, said
he considered the Eskinos were the
only civilized race in the world that
were secure from the encroachment
of the civilized white man and that it
therefore escaped extinction, or at
least degradation, from contact with
so-called civilization, San Francisco
dispatch says.
Unless the earth shall change it's
axis, thereby changing the climate of
the bleak and inhospitable north, he
said, no nation will ever attempt to
deprive the Eskimo of his land This
peculiar people inhabit vast terri.
tory, yet, Notwithstanding the vast
ness of their domain, there is only one
tribe. They speak the common Ian
guage and have the same customs,
whether in the Hudson bay country or
In the Baffin's bay regions.
The speaker was unable to under
stand why they had chosen such a
habitation, if they really had chosen
it. ,s
In the brief three months of sum-
mer," said the speaker, the Eskimo
hunts the seal and walrus and en-
cages in fishing to lay up store Of
food for the nine months of winter,
and when the winter comes he saws
the hard snow into large blocks and
with these builds house in the shape
of a bee hive, pours water over it ana
it freezes hard and makes a tight
dwelling, secure against the wind.
The opening of the door is so small
that one must crawl on his hands
and knees to enter the igloo Bushes
are spread upon the floor and seals
blubber in a followed stone is lighted
and serves for lamp and cooking
stove.
In the Bafin's bay country the pro.
testant Episcopal church has the most
northerly mission in the world. II
was founded 80 years ago by Rev.
Mr. Peck, who, after learning the Ian
guage, spent several years in convert
The first church building he erected
was built of sealskins sewn together.
and when it was finished the dogs de.
voured 1t over night The permanent
church was built soon thereafter with
lumber shipped from Canada.
Mr.. Peck found these people to
have an innate sense of right and
wrong and found them faithful and
trustworthy in all respects Before
they became Christians the Eskimos
used to kill all their aged and decrepit
men and used to force the old women
to commit suicide. This was done
under what they conceived to be the
stern law of necessity, but since that
time the practice has been abandoned.
They are sincere Christians, or at
least those of them that have Come

Rubbish Basket Saved Life.

If it had not been for basketful Of
rubbish standing in the areaway Of a
tenement, little Tony Sendro of San
Francisco would not be alive to-day.
The boy lives on the fourth floor Of
the tenement, and one day recently,
while watching some companions at
play, he leaned too far out of the win
dow, lost his balance, and fell head
first into the court below, landing in
the rubbish basket, which broke his
fall and saved his life. He escaped
with a fractured leg.

osler in Hard Luck.

DR.. William Osler is said to have
been practically driven out of Balti-
more by the rule forbidding physi-
clan to accept fee from brother
craftsman. DR.. Osler's fame attracted
other physicians from all over the
country, who were anxious for his adj
vice, and as a result his days work
at the university was rendered almost
impossible. Then came the invitation
from Englandswith an ample compe,
tence and abundant leisure.
