plml In Im' mill uasan African Napoleon. Clink a won ihe son of a Zulu chief him! receiveil the truiniiiK of a princely warrior. He beanl tali of Napoleon's remarkable career and took tbc adventurous Corsican for bis bero and model. On tlie death of his father Chaka usurped the kitiKdom by deposing ids brotber, united tketribeof Uie Uni Let. whs t o the Zulus anil at once began a warfare of unbridled conquest and rapine. The whole male Zulu population was conscripted for active service. A baud of 15,000 picked warriors was formed to constitute the royal gimnl, and they were ready to march at an hour's notice a distance of 40 or 60 miles without, a halt to execute the king's decree and "cat up” u town, a chief or a iriiie without warning. The main army was organized into regiments or Impis, and the troops were drilled in a thorough system of maneuvers new to ; African soldiers. .Many fortified kraals were Imilt us permanent camps for the regiments, and in a short time Chaka was absolute monarch of a vast and invincible military power. Tim surrounding country was gradually subjugated and Ihe tribee were either wiped out by wholesale slaughter or incorporated with the Zulus. Chuka’s rule over those who submitted to his power wusthe most rigid and cruel that can be imagined, in ids army the penalty of defeat was death, and sometimes whole regi meuts, including the wives and children of the soldiers, were massacred by the king's slayer.i because they failed to win » victory. In one of these military massacres the wives of two brothers of the king were slain, and out of revenge Chuka was killed by the blow of an ax in tin hands of one of the hrothers. Three of Chukn's brothers reigned after him. The last, one died in IbTtl and left his kingdom to Cetewayo, who inherited the savage gifts of his Uncle Chaka and soon turned the Zulu spears upon the English. The Matnbcle people hud long since revolted from Chaka's domination and established a counterpart to the Zulu kingdom in the country they now defend as their own. Cetewayo's realm and army were small as compared with Chaka's, but were modeled upon t he great original. The Zulu youth were drafted at the ago of 15, and after one year's active training became attached to one of the

military kraals.

The standing army numbered about 50,000 warriors and was composed of 83 regiments, each having peculiar dress and ornaments. Thu regiments were divided into right and left wings, each wing having eight or ten companies. Their drill was a system of simple evolutions to prepare them for rushing attack in crescent formation, ' the flunks or "horns” being intended to , inclose Uie enemy until his lines should be completely surrounded. The Zulu weapons were originally Kuflir spears and hunting rifles or muskets. Cetewayo, however,com mantled each soldier to procure a breechloading rifle from the white traders. The discipline of the army was exceedingly rigid, the usual punishment being death

idler, a second and last direct message from ramp reached l he general, stating t hat , Isandhlwanu was In pu-se'-sinn of theZu-j Ins. Chelmsford's whole force immediately ! marched to the rescue, reached camp at dark, and found it occupied not hv sav- | ages, hut by i mg, silent lines of dead Hritudi soldiers. It was two or three hours after the gen rial's party left camp before Zulu warriors appeared ni Isaudhlwuna. Several bodies of them were ill sight at 8 o'clock, when the warning above noted was dispatched to the general. Colonel l turn ford, I lie commandant , at once sent out strong scouting jiarties and rode to the front liimsei'.'at the head of a squadron of mounted men. The Zulus were nut in immense force on the front and left, mid lit: rn ford fell back slowly, lighting at every step, until within 800 yards of the right of the line of battle, covering the tents and wa pitis. At that ! point lie made a desperate stand, and a thousand dead Zulus were afterward found | on a slope mid gaily in front of the position. i bi rn ford's gallant fight outside t he emu p gave the various scout i tig del achments time : to return to the lines, and when nil were united the force stood in a semicircle, with backs to the steep wall-like hillside. The Zulus swarmed in all directions, for they numbered fully 30,000 of Cetewayo’s best impis. At 1:30 p. m. they succeeded in breaking through the left of the British line and rushing among the guns and wagons. The gunners ninl camp followers quickly broke for t he rear, ami the savages mingled in the rout, stabbing mid slashing right mid left wit h their assegais and short swords. The fugitives who got buck to the Natal sideof the river carried the last news from Isandhlwanu ever heard from European lips. Those who remained to fight met a fate like Custer's braves at J.ittle Big Horn, for the Zulu, like the redskin, takes no prisoners. The last act of Colonel Dnmford within the knowledge of surviving comrades was to ride to the right of t he line when the left j broke and rally the soldiers to cover the retreat. His body was found in the midst of a group of brave men who had fought around him, mid at his feet lay a Zulu chief covered w ith ids t hield. Zulu warriors preserved the story of the colonel's lust des- j perate stand. At lirst he formed a line of about 100 infantry and mounted men, and these fought until their ammunition whs exhausted, wl.-.'U many were cut down by Zulu assegais. The survivors drew their revolvers and formed squares, one after another, until there was but a handful of boy carbineers remaining. These took position , back to back beside their colonel, who carried u wounded arm in a sling and was easily marked by the Zulus. The savages literally overwhelmed them and cut down the last of them with is-cgais. Thu J4
