ing a blood curdling curse upon Whom-
soever should disturb the remains, the
maledction appealing to the powers
above to deny burial to the remains Oh
the sacrilegious ghoul who should inter-
fere with the eternal sleep of the prelate,
entreating that not one bone should re-
main with another, but that they should
be swept to the sea, so as to render the
reconstruction Of the body impossible.
Thus had the curse OF the Egyptian
high priest been accomplished, and the
bones of poor Walter Ingram must lie
strewn along the bed Of that river to this
day. if they have not been, as is firmly
believed by many carried out to sea by
the mighty rush of the waters.
Walter Ingram, before leaving Eng
land on that big game expedition which
was to cost him his life, made present
of the mummy in question to the late
Lady Meux, who, like himself, scoffed
at superstition and at the dead high
priest's curse. After his death she gave
il a place Of honor at Theobald's Park,
however, and treated it with the utmost
respect, and has now bequeathed 1t,
along with a number Of other Egyptian
curios and papyri, to the British Mu-
scum. EX-ATTACHE.

was dispatched by Sir William from
the coast to bring home his brothers
body not a vestige of it could be
found, save a single bone and few
buttons Of his garments, scattered
among the stones near the place where
, the body had been inferred. The fact
was that the valley was nothing more
nor less than the bed Of river, dry dur
ing the hot season but a raging torrent
during the rainy months.
1t was only then that Sir William and
other of the dead mans intimate friends
recalled the curse which Walter had be-

previously of particularly fine mummy

KILLED BY WILD BEASTS.

Not one, but several, of my old friends
have lost their lives through injuries in
hlcted by wild beasts while In pursuit
Of big game Notable among them was
the late Sir James Dormer, who was
Killed by tiger while general in mill
tary command Of the great Indian Presi-
dency Of Madras. Sir James, who was
sixty years old at the tine, and handi-
capped by the loss of an eye, had dis
pensed with the relative security af-
Iorded by howdah perched on the back
d an elephant and had undertaken to
s'alk man-eater on foot in the jungle,
risky proceeding at the best, and one
which but few of the oldest and most ex-
lerienccd shikars care 10 face. Instead
d the gallant old general bagging the
Tiger, it was the latter which got the
general, and tore him with teeth and
claws in such a savage fashion that
death on the following day was a merci-
ful release.
The generals glass eye was of con-
Siderable service I'm the Nile campaign Of
1855, in which he took a distinguished
Tart as chief Of staff. For when lie
found Arab cheftains wavering in their
loyalty and showing signs Of leaning
toward the Mahdi he would, in the
course Of the palayer, coolly pick his
glass eye out Of its socket with his fore
inger and thumb flick it into the air

LATE GETTING A DRINK.

"Yes," replied Mr.. Lincoln, with the
well known twinkle in his sad. gray eyes.
"but you see, my friend, never acquired
the habit because those other kentuck-
ians always got to the jug before | did.
You know I left Kentucky when / was
quite young
This little anecdote shows what Mr..
Lincoln missed by moving north Of the
Mason and Dixon line.
Nearly all the papers and letters bear
ing the signature of Mr.. Lincoln show
that he signed his name "A. Lincoln"
A facetious college professor called his
attention to this and added: "You are
not a Lincoln, Mr.. President; you are
The Lincoln"
Mr.. Lincoln chuckled deep down with
modest enjoyment.
THAT may be- he admitted, but don't
Won think it would be rather cheeky for
me to sign it that way?'
This one is sign that Mr.. Lincoln
was as modest as he was great.
Every great man has some personal
weakness or other. If he didn't have he
wouldn't be human. Mr.. Lincoln was
very human, and he was bit sensitive
on the usual pronunciation OF his name.
To a visitor who had the custom, NOT
unusual, OF frequently mentioning tho
name of the person to whom he was
talking, he said: Don't pronounce 1t as
though | was a sausage. Call it Lin
kun"
Mr.. Lincoln's language In ordinary
conversation was characterized by tho
same simplicity which adorned his
speeches.
You never swear, Mr.. President, do
you?" asked a prominent Boston man.
who had talked with him on several oc-
casions.
"Oh. don't have to-" he laughed not
loud but deep. You know have STAN
ton in my Cabinet"
This may have been a reflection upon
the virile and vitriolic Secretary OF War.
but it was no less delicate compliment.

served tramp near the White House
grounds The tramp didn't know the
President and struck him for the loan
of a dime to save him from immediate
starvation.

LIONS RIGHTLY FEARED.

So much has been printed and spoken
about the alleged inoffensiveness of a
lion. nay, even Of its very cowardice,
that 1t will doubtless create surprise in
this country TO learn that the justly
named "king Of beasts" is very dan
gerous quarry. Possibly a lion gorged
with food may be disposed to avoid trou-
ble unless trouble is absolutely forced
upon IT, But a lion which is hungry,
and therefore i'll tempered, or which IS
disturbed from it's lair by Nimrods on
the stalk. is a very ugly customer in
deed; while a lioness which fears for its
young constitutes an even still more per-
ilous problem. In fact. the number or
white mems graves in British East Af-
rca bearing inscriptions to the effect
that their occupants have been killed by
lions is very large indeed, and is quite
sufficient in itself TO dispel the foolish
but widespread notion of late years that
this grandest Of all big game is worthy
Of contempt rather than Of fear, that it
would sooner sneak than fight-in one
word that it no longer merited the pres
tige which it had enjoyed for so many
hundreds Of years.
Among others who could bear eloquent
tribute 10 the undiminished ferOcity OF
lions and TO the reality cf the danger
incurred in hunting them is the Marquis
Of Waterford, head of that house OF
BeresfOrd which has been so much in the
American eye during the last week in
connection with the marriage Of one OF
It's members. Lieutenant Colonel Lord
Decies, TO Miss Vivien Gould, Of New
York. on Tuesday. Lord Waterford,
While on a big game expedition in British
East Africa, accompanied by his wife. 4
daughter Of Lord LansdoWne, was badly
mauled by lion, which he was engaged
in stalking. and which suddenly leaped
upon him from the underbrush, landing
on his shoulder. Its attention diverted
by his gun bearers, the marquis had the
Grit TO fire his gun with his uniniurcd
arm into the animals eye, killing it in
s,antly Nor is Lord Waterford by any
means the only member Of the British
peerage who still bears on his body the
Gears Of wounds inflicted by the teeth
and claws Of lions in South and British
East Africa.

CHANCE FOR AN IMPOSTC!

Lord Edward ST. Maur was killed y
bear While shooting in the Him4-
layas, and it was owing to this that the
historic Dukedom of Somerset was be-
reft of almost the whole of its vast es-
tates and great riches. For Lord Ed
wards father, the twelfth duke, popu-
larly known as the Sheridan Duke

Sheridan, granddaughter of Richard
Brinsley Sheridan. hated his brothers

to the dukedom in turn, and bequeathed

Some years ago an individual appeared
who pretended to be Lord Edward st.
Maur. and who told a story to the effect
that instead of having succumbed to the
injuries inflicted by the bear he had re-
covered and had been held in captivity
for many years by some of the noun
tain frontier tribes of India. He went to
the length of securing an injunction to
restrain the tenants Of the entailed es-
tates OF the present Duke of Somerset
from paying the rents to the latter, but
died before the matter could be definitely
tried out in court Had he lived, his
claim might have developed into another
Tichborne case, and undoubtedly good
deal of testimony bearing upon his pre-
tensions would have been sought in this
country from both the Confederate and
the Union commanders.
