I spoke to the captain in command cf the rear platoons, saying that I had been ordered to support the regulars in the attack upon the hills and that in my judgment we conld not take these hills by firing at them and that we mnst rnsb *hem. He answered that his orders weiv to keep his men lying where they were and that he conld not charge without orders. I asked where the colonel was. and as he was not in sight said. "Then I am the ranking officer here, and I give the order to charge"—for I did not want to keep the men longer in the open, suffering nnder afire which they could not effectively return.

Naturally the captain hesitated to obey this order when no word had been

•. .» received from his own colonel. So 1

said. "Then let my men through, sir,"

an(j r(K}e on

through the lines, followed

by the grinning rough riders, whose attention had been wholly taken off the Spanish bullets, partly by my dialogue with the regulars and partly by the language I had been using to themselves as I got the lines forward, for I had been joking with some and swearing at others, as the exigencies of the case seemed to demand.

When we started to go through, however, it proved too much for the regulars, and they jumped up and came along, their officers and troops mingling with mine, all being delighted at the chance. When I got to where the head of the left wing of the Ninth was lying, through the courtesy of Lieutenant Har^wick, two of whose colored troopers threw down the fence, I was enabled to get back into the lane, at the same time waving my hat and giving the order to charge the hill on our right front

Out of iny sight, over on the right, Captains McBlain and Taylor of th« Ninth made up their minds independently to charge at just about this time, and at almost the same moment Colonels Carroll and Hamilton, who were off, I believe, to my left, where we could see neither them nor their men, gave the order to advance. But of all this I knew nothing at the time. The whole line, tired of waiting and eager to close with the enemy, was straining to go forward, and it seems that different parts slipped the leash at almost the same moment.—"The Rough Riders," by Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, in Scribner's.

Sixteen Scorpion Bltes.

Winfield S. Keyes, a son of the late General Keyes, and a mining engineer of San Francisco, has just recovered from ajeculiar case of poisoning. Several weeks ago he was in Mexico examining some mining properties. The day before he was ready to return to San Francisco he was bitten 16 times on the sight leg between the knee and the ankle. He was not long in ascertaining that he had been bitten by an unusually large scorpion. The bites were little red spots at first, but they grew in size and increased in pain while he was hurriedly en route to San Franci«:o for treatment. When be arrived, his leg was fearfully swollen. The bites had become large red and yellow boils, and the pain was almost unbearable. The physicians said that if proper treatment had been delayed a day longer he would never have recovered.

TInee Row* of Hnman Eyen.

Mrs. William E. Curtis of Chicago is the possessor of a unique necklace which she values for old times' sake. It is composed of three rows of human eyes in a perfect state of preservation, polished and mognted in gold The eyes were ^procured from Peru, where the dead are buried in a sitting posture, and the hot, dry air preserves them more effectively than any embalming Quid. A whole mummy can be obtained there for about $0, and the eyes alone arejnuch cheaper. Polished and mounted they make an odd ornament indeed.

A latticework bridge now fepans the river Jordan, near the point where the children of Israel are said to hare crossed into the promised land. Hither to it has been difficult to cross the rivei at thie place, owing to the bad condition of the east bank. The bridge has doot» at each end which can be locked, thus barring ingress.

Ktreytnt Cp AppewMoei.

A "licensed pawnbroker" who does a great deal of work in the west end of London lately gave to the writer particulars of a strange sort of pledging that has become common of late and that often defeats men of his kind.

Backing up his statement with actnal names and dates, he Baid: "A bailiff and I enter a showy flat, say, and my accustomed efe at once falls on a handsome or at least a pretentious piano. I say to myself that this piano will sell for what I require I go to it, but find that it is locked. I ask for the key, and when this is reluctantly produced I find that there is in reality nothing but a case All the inside of the instrument is gone. The fact is that people in difficulties who still want to keep up appearances can borrow money, while still apparently retaining their piano, by allowing the tenders to take away the main part, or Inside, of the instrument One man in the west end in particular does a considerable business by lending money on pianos in this way. "I suppose that when visitors want to play on an instrument of this kind the host pleads that the key is lost Anyhow I have in my own business had quite 50 examples of gutted pianos during the last two years, and I never mark a piano down in an inventoiy now till I have closely examinP'1 it"— London Answers.

A Kelchlng Cock.

Camden says the Thames was once called the Cockney, and therefore a cockney means simply one who lives on the banks of the Thames. Wedgewood says a cockney, or cockerney, is one pampered by city indulgence, in contradistinction to rustics hardened bj outdoor work. There is, however'" a legend, almost too good to be true— namely, that a Londoner who had never before slept out of sound of Bow Bells had occasion to go into the country and was detained all ni^ht^..

He \^s rnacli""disturbed by the lowing of the cattle, the grunting of the pigs and other sounds of country life, which he conld not understand, and in particular he was frightened by the crowing of the cock. In the morning, in response to the farmer's inquiries, he said the sound of the wild beasts had kept him awake. Just at that moment the cock crowed again, and the Londoner said: "That's the one! He's been neighing like that for hoursi" Since then Londoners have been called cockneighs. or cockneys.

I.earning the Trnth.

A school inspector was examining a class in grammar and trying to explain the relations of adjectives and nouns by a telling example. "Now. for instance." said he, "what am I'("

That was an easy question, and all the children shouted, "A man!" and then looked around triumphantly, as much as to say. "Ask another. "Yes. But what else?" said the inspector

This was not so easy, but after a pause a boy ventured to suggest, "A little man." "Yes. but there is something more than that."

This was a poser for the youngsters, but after a moment's puzzled silence an infant phenomenon almost leaped from his seat in his eagerness and cried to the inspector: "Please, sir, I know—an ugly little man I"

Drammond Was oil Top.

Professor Henry Drummond had a boyish spirit when a man. and at the age of 26 invented a game for some friends at a country house one rainy evening. He said "They play it in America with bowie knives Four men nre locked in a dark room, each in a corner. ai^J tfje survivor wins. We'll do without the knives: the t" xr and the shutters shall be shut, each of us wijl stand in a corner, and the first who gets"on"another man's back will bo the winner/'. t)r. Smith was in the game, and he says it was the most exciting one he ever played. "Nobody stirred from hi« corner for 20 minutes. Then I heard a scuffle between two of the others, fell my way to fling myself on both cf them, when Drummond pounced on me, and we all rolled in a heap, he, c/ course, on top. as he always w.-.a.

The Snn'a Motion.

An astronomical fact now ae formerly causing no little perplexity to some iB that the sun's motion—which unquestionably and indisputably is extremely quick—does not change the relative position of the solar system to the fixed stars and the constellation? more than it actually does, and th -t« are some who on this account are inclined to doubt the actual motion of the sun in space.

The investigations of astronomer? have nevertheless established one thin^ as certain—namely, that the sun moves through space at a great speed—estimated by some scientists at 16 miles a second—carrying all the planets, satellites and other cosmical bodies along with it. but this motion of the vast luminary, while affecting, of coursei the real motion of the planets in space, does not in even the slightest degree affect the relative motion of sun and planets.

Even under the supposition of so great a rate as 16 miles in one second, this relative position of the sun to the fixed stars would, astronomers declare, be hardly perceptible in a century, on account of the almost inconceivable distance of the latter—the conclusion being, therefore, that many thousands of years must pass before the sun's propet motion in space can change the configuration of the star groups.

The Machete.

As" a defensive weapon the value of the machete is small Even its offensive effect depends less on the weapon itself than on the continual and skillful usage made of it by the_Cuban peasant from his earlier age, whicL imparts a peculiar training to the musfUi? of the •wrist and arm of the operator. The consequence of this skilly jsj^hat when ever a quarrel occurs between" two "guajiros" or "monetros." they settle the matter with their machetes as cour ageously and tenaciorisly as two gamecocks. and generally both parties are seriously injured for life or are killed on the spot_

Owing lo this fact and to the natural kindly disposition of the Cnban peasants, they are not a quarrelsome people and respect everybody, to be equally respected. With the machete a few curious accessories are used. 'The principal are a thin strip of leather closely tied to the right wrist, a small round piece of grinding stone to sharpen the edge of the tool, and whenever th* machete is employed to cut down tfe: thorny heath of tropical vegetation & small branch of special shape, called the "garabato," is used to hold the heath and do rapid work without being injured by thorns.—Island of Cuba Wagazina

The Renemblnace.

He was the son of a worthy citizen I and had just returned from college His father was a brusque, matter of fact man, who had no liking for anything pronounced, and he noticed with sorrow that his son returned with the latest thing in collars and various other insignia of fashion. The old gentleman surveyed him critically when he appeared in his office and then blurted out. "Young man. you look like an idiot!'

Just at that moment, and before the young man had time to make a fitting reply, a friend walked in. "Why, hello, Billy I Have you return ed?" he asked. "Dear me, how xnucb you resemble your father!" "So he has been telling me," replied Billy.

And from that day to this the old gentleman has had no fault to find witfc his son

AFGHANISTAN VENDETTAS.

How Deadly Blood Feuds Are Waged Ii the Khyber Paso.

During the time I bave been in In dia, writes a soldier correspondent, the most iuteresting period was when I was stationed ou duty for three months some years back in Landikotal, on the Afghanistan side of the far famed Khyber pasi Here I was able to forcibly realize the meaning of "vendetta," as the characteristic blood fe^ds of the Afridir are"quaiut and interesting.

The pass itself is a neutral zone between India and Afghanistan, but we exercise our dominion over the road that winds its way for 21 miles through tha narrow valley. Here, as elsewhere in Afghanistan, blood feuds are a reoognized institution among the tribes and last through generations, the dishonor resting with that family who last suffered from some defeat or treacherous murder.

When an encounter occurs between two tribes occupying settlements on opposite sides of the road mentioned, one or other must cross it before commencing firing, as firing across the road i* prohibited, but on either side they can exercise their friendly feelings toward each other without hindranoe.

Bat still quainter is it when the fends are between close neighbors. Each family, with near relations, oconpies a number of mud huts, inclosed in a square surrounded by a tliick, high wall of mud, stone and wood. At one cornea of these squares is built a'watch towe* 80 feet high, where the family marka man 'takes his position and playfnlfy picks off any unfortunate who shows himself in the' next square. Constitu tionals are therefore oonfined on both •ides and limited to nigbtly prowl*. Bcaod Magasine.
