It was\na two year's race for, Khartoum, and the\nBritish won, Sir Herbert occupying the\nmahdi's stronghold early \ufffd\ufffdn September,,\nA few days later Major Marchand ap-.\npeared at Fashoda, 400 miles up the\nNile He arrived with only 156 men,\nhaving lest the rest through death and\ndesertion. ,\nThe object of the French advance was\nto defeat the-British plan of establishing\na line Qf comrnunication. from the north\n-fo the south of Africa, between Egypt .,\nand, C^pe Colony, by snatching a vast ~ r\nzone across the heart of Africa, from the -\ufffd\ufffd\\,\nAtlantic to the Red sea. .France'already\npossesses a large sphere* of influence i*\nthe Congo, in the west, and a territory;; -\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nabout as large as New York state, south\nof Abyssirinia... Abyssinnja itself is largely undier, Russian influence, and Russia \ufffd\ufffd\",;\nplaying into the hands of France. Abys- .\n, sinnia recently annexed all the territory. - .-\ufffd\ufffd\nfrom'its western boundary, to the Nile. >\nThis helped France in her scheme of an r\nequatorial zone. .France already has a\nrailway started from Obock, on ths Red ' '\nsea towards the Nile basin. * \" ' , *; -\nEngland, practically supreme in Egypt -.\".'\no.vns a large area in East Central Africa;\nbounded on the south- by German terri-:' ,.\ntory., S^outh of the German sphere Eng--\nland owns the whole end of Africa. From\nthe southern' boundary of the Egyptian. _i\nSoudan to the nearest British territory on, _,o\nthe south is a stretch of only about tiooo. :\nmiles. Could England get a line of corn*\nmunication through this ibdo miles, shft ,\nwould have-\/uniterrupted sway from the ~\nmouth of the Nile to Capetown, a dis-. .\ntance of 4000 miles. The trade' of all. ,\nthis vast central region* would naturally ,\nflow thrqugh British channels.\nThe territory directly involved in the;\nFashoda dispute is the southern p\ufffd\ufffdoyince>\nin the Egyptian Soudan, Bahr-el Gh'azeL.\nIt is about five times as large as England,,\nis covered with forests and meuntains.\nand includes the larger portion of the\nbasin ot the Upper Nile. Egypt annexed*,\nthe country fifty years ago, and U is ^\nnecessary link in the British chain <&\nAfrican communication.\nFor several years England has claimed\nthis territory and her claims were recog-.\nnized in treaties with Germany and Italy\nand tacitly admitted by France. After-\nEgypt's authority was overthrown in the:\nSouth, to make sure of this land Lord.\nKimberley negotiated a treaty with the\nCongo Free State,, leasing the provinces*\non the Upper\" Nile to the Congo State,\nunder British influences, The treaty was\nso grasping, however, that Germany and.,\nFrance took offense and at their protest\nthe clauses for the- lease of the Soudan\nwere dropped.

The watch hesitated about it and called me. I saw there was an official air about tho man, so I knocked up the skipper, who now has the mysterious visitor .vith liim, but what it is all about you might as well ask the celebrated man in the moon, to whom people are\" generally referred under such circumstances, but it ought to be something important that gets everybody out of bed at this unearthly hour,\" and he shrugged his shoulders. \"Well, 1 suppose I shall-soon know something, \", I answered, and I knocked , , at the. door, which was at that moment opened by the captain. \"Ah,-is that you\/ Mr. Sharer?\" and - he called to the first lieutenant, who ' had accompanied me to his door. '' Show this gentleman to his boat,'' and he spoke a few. \"words of goodby hurriedly. I just had time to glance at him and to notice that he was a tall, well made, gentlemanly looking fellow, with an erect, soldierly bearing, and with a 'certain official air about him which1 stamped him as one having authority and accustomed to command. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd '' Come in,''' said the captain, '' there is some little excitement for you this' morning. That gentleman who has just \" gone is\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwell, I need not waste timo over that, as it does not concern you. A large .diamond., valued at something like \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd7,000 or \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd8,000 has been stolen. The two men have been tracked to Durban here, but last night they hired a small sailing boat and have made off. Their luggage has been overhauled at their, hotel, and as no trace of the missing stone has been discovered it is understood that thoy have it with them in the boat, their intention no doubt being to follow the coast until they fall in with some vessel that will get them and their diamond to some country where they can dispose of it. The boat, which they hired for the avowed purpose of a pleasure trip, is about 18 feet long, is painted white, and has one square sail. I wish you to take the steam launch and go after them. Thoy are not experienced in the use of a boat, and they will, in all probability, not stray far from the shore.' Keep a strict watch on them that they drop nothing overboard. If they do, take the bearings of the place so that divers can go down, if they do throw the stone into the water,'' and he made preparations for turning in again. I gave the necessary orders about the launch, and, with four Jacks, took my place in the boat. The men were in ex- \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdcellent spirits after I briefly explained \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdto.them the nature of our work, and we \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwere soon steaming along at a fair speed. Tho morning was cold, and now that I had got over the excitement of being turned out before daylight I was feeling chilly. If there is anything that makes one feel miserable and melancholy, it ia that cold, unusual gray of dawn. There is an ashy clamminess in the air which pervades everything and seems to gain an entrance to one's vitals. \\ As the silver light took possession of the expanse of deep I could see tho men were narrowly scanning the stretch of waters for any signs of the boat. We were running along about nine knots. This was considered pretty good then for a launch. The little'wind had gone down; aud the sea was now quite smooth. Occasionally a breeze would pass gently over the water with just a perceptible ripple. I was thinking now as to how I would act. I felt pretty confident about getting the men, but I wanted tho diamond too. Various plans came into my head. I feared that when tho men caught sight of us the stone would be quickly dropped into the sea. I mentioned my fears to King. \"I think, sir,\" said he, going through various preliminary maneuvers in tho way of shifting a large quid of tobacco from one cheek to another and wiping his mouth two or three times with his hand, '' I think, sir, if 1 was you, whd'n Ve sights this 'ere wessel the best thing will be not to make a signal nor hail them. Jus; run on as if we was rjoiug right past :em without stopping, and then bout ship suddenly aud round upou tkem. This will allow U3 to keep au eye on their movements. \" I saw there was wisdom in the old man's advice, and that his suggestion was a good one. \"If we.discharged a gun to signal them to stop, they would know the game was up, and overboard would go the diamond,'' added King, and his remarks ,were, received with great attention by the rest. \"There she is, sir,\" shouted one of the men, and all eyes turned in the direction he pointed. \"There, just on the starboard bow.\" My glass had scarcely been shut up five minutes, but sometimes a slight haze will lift, and in a second you will see what you have been vainly sweeping the sea for for hours. \"That's her; sure euough,\" I announced as soon as I got my glass on her. She was \"sailing along slowly, close in to the land. I could distinctly see- two individuals, who seemed to be looking toward us. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd I rather fancy my own men were disappointed that I could, not see the diamond, for thoy gla.uced at me with an air of expectancy, and the precious stone was the ouo idea uppermost in their minds, for two of them immediately chimed in with a remark about it. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \"Keep steadily to your course,\" I eaid to the man who was Gteering. I told the others to sit down, for I was anxious that we should not appear to be in search of them; Keeping well out of' sight myself, I trained my glass on her and watched all their movements. As we got nearer I could see by their gestures that they wero regarding us with ' a certain amount of suspicion. From what I could make out they were about 300 yards from the shore and almost at -a standstill, but an occasional- puff of wind gave them headway. < On our present course we would pass them at about 100 yards distance. My intention was to go on as if we were going to.pass them and then hail them. j. noticed now that the' boat was heading for the beach. , \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Suddenly there was a puff, followed by the report\/of a gun. I had my glass ou them, but the man was firing in the direction of the shore, and I' saw some wild sea fowl.rise. Several shots were fired, before we were near euough to quite \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd7,000, and considerably more perhaps if the cutting turned out well. They - repudiated the charge of theft, but admitted that they had just come from one of the diamond camps. Thoy seemed quite s^ure\" that they would be B-bla to satisfy the captain when they arrived at the cruiser. I was glad that they did take matters so pleasantly and apologized for pulling their boat about. \"Oh, it's not ours,\" said one of them. \"It,is a hired one, and- the owner will come upon you for the damage.'\" And the two,men laughed at this. - \"Why, there's the Gadfly\/' cried one ff the Jacks. l> I looked and found he was right, so we altered ou? course a point and steer? ed straight for her. She was coming up quickly, for they had sighted us. In a very short time we were on board and steaming back to Durban. The captain was pleased at the capture,'but disappointed when he found that we had not come across the diamond. Ho said he would retain the two men prisoners, for awhile at least, until, ho heard from the man who had visited him in the early morning. But as soon as wa were' off Durban hail. I wondered what they were doing. '' Have you seen a similar launch to this pass you?\" I shouted ' as we slowed down\" \"What?\" came over the water. I hailed them again with tho same question. It gave us time to edge nearer. \"No!\" the two men bawled together. \"Easy ahead,\" I said, and I waved my hand as if I had finished my business, and I sat down in the stern sheets. . Then I gave the order to stop and hailed them again. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd '' What are you firing at?'' I shouted \"Wild birds'.\" \"What?\" I cried in return. \"Wild birds!\" was bawled again. \"Any good sport?\" I asked in a lower tone of voice. '' Can' t hear!\" thoy shouted. ' I motioned that I would come nearer, and the launch came round and we ran down to them. As we did so I saw the man who had the gun raise it With careful aim and fire in the direction of a mound on the shore. Again some birds rose at the report. \"Put her alongside, King,\" and I motioned to King to take the helm. \"You three jump into the boat arid secure those men as scou as we touch. \" Now was tho exciting time. They had thrown nothing into the water so far, I was certain. Another minute, and wo would have them. \"Let her como gently alongside,'' I said to King, and 1 gave the order to ease her.\" The diamond was withiu reach. \"We are just having a little shooting, and thought of lauding here,\" remarked tho mail with the gun, but he eyed me suspiciously. \"What kiud of birds aro there about here?\" I asked casually. We wero within a couple of yards, and I was pro- paring for the spring. Before he could finish his reply we wore ou them, mid the two men were pinned to the bottom of their own boat. I felt relieved, for I\" was fairly confident of success. They admitted that they wero from Durban, but deuied ail knowledge of the diamond. They' had heard of its theft, but they were not the men. Of course we did not believe that, and a rigid search at once commenced. ' The men were stripped \/and every iuch of clothing examined, but no diamond. Having finished for the time being, we transhipped them to the launch aud began a strict examination of the sailing boat. We took up the bottom boards and broke up the seats and fittings, but without success. The. two men stormed and threatened and swore they were merely a pleasure party and vowed summary vengeance for the outrage, as they termed it. I was greatly disappointed at the result of tho search, but King' grinned aud whispered iu my ear aud advised that we should return to the ship. W\" watched every movement of the men on our way back. I could see my--own men wer? disappointed, but thgir faces brightened up when King whispered to them what he had told to me. Every now and then oue of them would come out with a guffaw, and the rest would smile. The two prisoners were very indignant at first, but- they soon recovered and took matters very coolly. One of them asked permission to smoke and opened a small box of cigars thai w biid brought from the boat, which was now being towed by us. Smoking led to talking, and I found that they wero really verypleasant fellows. The diamond, they said, was called the \"South African Priuce\" aud would be worth he came in his boat to us, and he proceeded to search the' men again, after which he and the captain had a, long consultation in the cabin, while, I gave the story to tho first lieutenant. He inclined to the opinion that they had succeeded in dropping it .overboard, but I differed, and told him that from the moment of sighting them T had'carefully- watched their movements; but ho showed me half a dozen ways as to how it could be done. However, I still adhered to my opinion. The conversation was cut short by a message from the captain. \"I am sorry,\" ho said, as I entered his cabin, \"that I am not justified in' detaining these men. They have, I'fear, outwitted us.\" \"They have probably got rid of the stone'before putting out to sea,\" remarked the strange military gentleman, Who, r found, was one of the'inspectors under the illicit diamond act. So the two men were brought in and told they could go \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd ashore when ' they wished. Then one of them cut up rough and said that they had been seized, taken prisoners and searched while on a holiday, but eventually it was agreed that' their boat should be repaired, and the carpenters were put on to -work- all -nigh V and the cnext day they would' proceed on their journey for the purpose of slioot- ing wild fowl. They elected to stay on board the cruiser for the night. I fancy the captain was glad - to get off on such easy terms. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd ' , - I was just having a final whiff and thinking, over .the 'events of the day before turning,in when suddenly the solution of the whole matter flashed upon me, and I wondered why I had been so stupid. T I think I took one spring into the captain's cabin. Fortunately ho had not \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd retired. He was snipping, and a glass of whisky was near life elbow.' He listened as I explained the absence of the diamond. \"That is the explanation of the mystery, I haven't a doubt,\" he replied when I had'finished.r \"You have my authority to act as you suggest,\" he added, as I left him to rouse King. With as little\" fuss as possible we were rowed ashore and landed on the south point, taking care to carry with us a revolver each. \"Now, King,\" I said as the boat left us, \"you're in for a 'long walk.' \" \"Right you are, sir. \" He was too good a seaman to ask questions, and off we set, keeping the line of the coast! \"You know whereabouts the boat was stopped yesterday?\" I asked. \"I think I docs, sir, \" he replied. \"Well, we have got to walk there,\" I said. King lighted his pipe and we trudged on. He was a good companion, and during that long night he told me a good bit of his history. I made out that we were averaging four miles an hour. At daybreak we . stopped and made our breakfast off biscuit and a small tin of meat which King had provided himself, with. I had a flask of brandy. While we sat I unfolded to him my plan and the explanation of t\\v> -missing diamond. \"Why\/yes, sir, \"he replied after a moment's consideration, \"that is where the diamond is, you can bo sure; but what shall wo do if the wind changes?\" \"The wiud holds good at present,\" I replied, but there? was something to be feared if it died. About 9 o'clock we reached what I considered was near the place where wo had stopped the boat on the previous day, but oue could not be certain. However, we lay down among the long grass, aud King had me to himself for a good spell of shark stories. I had my glass with .me, and from, time to time kept a sharp lookout seaward. Although King talked the whole time I don't think he once relaxed his scrutiny of the expanse of water to his left. Even when he lighted his pipe he kept one eye seaward. Ten, 11 arid 12 o'clock came; uo signs of what I expected. About 2 o'clock we were rewarded by eeeiug our friends whose acquaintance we had made the day before. They were coming along close into tho shore, and about half a mile from us they took down the sail and rowed the boat straight in for the beach. We carefully watched their movements. For a moment or two they seemed undecided; then they walked up to one of the krge grassy hillocks and began to examine'it. We now shifted our pose of observation and moved to a position which cut th'ein off from their boat, still keeping behind the hillocks and crawling through the long grass. For perhaps a quarter of an hour or more ,they examined the green mound; then one whistled to the other, and they walked off in the direction of the, boat, examining something very closely, carried by the taller of the two, and evidently very satisfied with themselves. A-minute later and we had them and the diamond. The firing the day before had not, as I guessed, been for1 the purpose of shooting the wild'fowl. One of the shots'into the hillock had carried the diamond, which they had first imbedded in lead and fired with a weaker- charge of powder. We allowed them to find it, and when,.they had dug it'out of the mound we arrested Ciem. For a moment they were inclined to show fighti but a loaded revolver has great, moral force, and we marched them back to Durban. They got fivo years' imprisonment,' and we got \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd1,000, which was equally distributed among the hands. We want another similar case. The crew out of their money subscribed and bought mo a diamond ring,' which'is quito worth \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd50, and I have a great reputation in the ship as a detect- lve. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd < King thinks that he and I could do better in that line than serving her niaj- esty afloat.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdBoston Traveler.

Occasionally there has been a suspicion of the presence of a political pull in these awards. Yet in spite of the drawbacks to its reputation which the delay in awarding it and the way in which some of its wearers have acquired it cause the medal of honor is an-honorable decoration and has been won honorably by most of those who have it. Most of them won it for such feats; as capturing battloflags, though one soldier got it because he was on the guard of honor over Lincoln's coffin. The Twenty-seventh Maine regiment received the medal as a whole. Its time was up, and it volunteered to remain and take part in. the battle of Gettysburg. For this and its brav: ery at the fight every survivor received the medal. A PLUCKY OFFICER. The Daring Lieutenant Who Carried a Message Into the Heart of Cuba. Lieutenant Andrew S.

If oue gentleman inceJSs another, the , latter being with' a lady, the former does not merely nod, but-will'take off his hat, so that tho salute may seem tp include both the gentleman and the lady- Ladies do not rise to shake, hands with a gentleman, nor do they shake hands at all with a now acquaintance, fven when an introduction takes place. An inclination of the head aud a few pleasant words are all that are necessary. A gentleman never extends his hand to a lady first. This would be regarded by a woman of good society as presumption and might warrant- her snubbing tho unfortunate transgressor. A lady may shake hands with another lady when'an introduction takes place, but it is not a necessary act aud is often omitted. A host's name never appears on any invitation except to a wedding or dinner. A bachelor who gives a dauce or reception always receives his own guests. A married lady may chaperon young ladies to au entertainment given by a bachelor friend. Ladies are not entitled to use crests; therefore after the death of a husband or father tho crest would be discontinued. This rule, however, is often disregarded by ladies who are otherwise exceptionally strict in matters of etiquette. Never raise' or move the eyebrows . perceptibly.
