MARVELLOUS ENDURANCE
 OF BRITISH LIEUTENANT
Carried Hundreds of Miles Before
 Wound Was Dressed.


 London, March 6-News has just reached here of two exciting scrim- images by British troops and tribesmen in Africa. In the first of these. Major Lionel Joyce Conry of the Connaught Rangers, who was awarded the dis tinguished service medal in South Africa in 1900, was killed in fight with outlaws near Wadai Hadi, in the Sudan. Major Conry was in charge of a contingent of an Arab battalion of the Egyptian army. The leaders of the outlaws and other members of the band were killed and the remainder made prisoners. Besides Major Conry the British troops lost three men killed and four wounded.
 In the second affair Lieutenant Jones was shot through both legs during an attack on a stockade by Abyssinian raiders in British East Africa. When Lieutenant Jones was wounded all his soldiers except three orderlies, fled These men, at Jones' command, retook the stockade by assault.
 Two of the soldiers, both natives, then bore the wounded officer on a stretcher 800 miles to his post. Blood poisoning meantime had set in, and Jones was conveyed to another post where a doctor was stationed. On their arrival, however, the doctor was absent and a journey to Nairobi was then started. On the way the stretch CT was charged by two rhinos, which the faithful orderlies killed. At Nyiri a doctor and a nurse were found.
 The muscles of one of Jones' legs were so shrunk that the leg will al- ways be four inches shorter than the other and Jones will be 8 cripple for life. The doctors regard Jones' arrival at the hospital alive as miraculous.

ODD FACTS ABOUT TITLES.

Dom Pedro II, who lost the throne of Brazil in 1889, was the last monarch to offer titles for sale. In order to ob- tain funds for the erection of a hos pftal in Rio de Janeiro, the emperor announced that he would confer the title of baron" on every subscriber of 100000 milreiS, and the title of count on every subscriber of 25O, 900 milreis. Many proved wSHin~ to become emo bled on these terms, and sufficient money was forthcoming to endow the hospital as well as build it. Over the main entrance may still be seen the inscription suggested by Dom Pedro, Human Vanity to Human Misery
 Although French titles of nobility abolished at the time of the revolu- ton b va decree that was revived in 1871 yet the ministry of justice issues certificates of nobility. Members of the French diplomatic service who use titles have to obtain one of these cer- tificates and pay stifiiy for the trans action. The fees in the case of a duke amount to s2,400. a marquis pays s2,- GOO. Wscount q. 400. a baron SS0O and a chevalier s260.

The dawn is deepening into day
there is a race to run
Before the sentinels of night drive
off the beams of sun.
Where the goal we mean to reach;
what conquest would we make;
What is tho spelling of the course our
earnest feet shall take?
A new fair day is ours again; we
drink the wine of life
And breathe the freshness Of the air;
smile down at sloth and strife;
But tell me what we mean to do;
what do we mean to win,
Before the day fades into night where
will our feet have been?
What shall we do with this fair day?
will any heart at all
Beat closer to the heart of God be-
cause we gave the call?
viii any human heart at all thrOb
with a keener beat
Because we cast bit OF love before
some weary feet?
