zUbElR WAS KING
OF THE SUDAN
He Could Have Saved General
Gordon at Khartum.

LOnuon.-One of the most plct'lr-
was Zubeir Tnsha at one time an inl-
mensely wealthy slave trader and vir-
tualy Il king in the Sudan. General
Gordon selected him as the only man
capable of holding the territory. and
there is little doubt that had Gordon's
advice been followed the tragedy of
Khartum would not have occurred.
In the last ten years Zubeir had been
living at Cell. Zllbeir Pasha was one
of the remarkable men of the nine
teenth century. He was quite a cen
trail African Napoleon in his day, and
he paid for his large conquests with
both an Elba and a st. Helena.
Before Gordon's arrival in the Su-
dan Zubeir was master of southern
Kordofan. the Bnru. Wndai and a'n,lm-
her of other SultanateS. all of which
he had conquered. Gordon wanted to
have him made governor general Of
the Sudan. and had his counsel been
followed there can be no doubt that
the mahdi's revolt would have been
crushed at an carly nerod. But in
that case there would have been no
British Sudan.
England was sufficiently alive to his
great influence, however, after the bat
tie of Omdnrman. when they brought
him from Cairo to help settle the coun-
try. lie served loyalty. and there is
