John Taal Always Goes. Into a
Wax in an Unprepared
Fashion,
From Somaliland has come the
'usual cry for "more mon," which al-
ways'makes itself heard whenever
ohn Bull engages in any warlike
.operations; anal It is officially an -
pounced that General Manning is to
act strictly on the defensive instead
of chasing the savage foe.
It is ludicrous now to look back
upon the tea-party of 1901, when
ta, tiny force of no more than one
thousand five hundred men chased

"Tomas ever thus. John Bull al-
ways thinks he is going to found
'Dmpires with a, cor'poral's guard. He
arolls into a war in the most caste -
el and unprepared fashion, and, the
esual outcome is a swift and sudden
iisaster, with the usual 'sequel of a

eery to do more than allude to the
aistoric instance of the South Afri-

• THE ZULU WAR
rives a very good instance of this
'my -going temper on the part of
John Bull. The terrible disaster of
tsandhvana gave England a nasty
.shock, when a British caaup was
tushed by the Zulu impis and the
troops annihilated. Five hundr•eci
men and thirty officers were among
the slain, including Colonel Pulling,
Major White and Colonel Durnford,

away with one hundred and two
wagons, one thousand oxen, and two
guns, besides one thousand rifles and
.a large stock of stores and ammuni-
tion.

'night have been averted by the use
of cavalry, which had been pressing-
ly sought for by the commander-in-
chief, Lord Chelmsford, and Sir
Bartle Frere. Of course, as soon as
the steed was stolen, the home au-
thorities made haste to Shut the
stable door; and eight thousand
more troops were hurried out in the
course of a week or so, later follow -
at by the 17th Lancers, who were to

Ulundi.

aptness in grasping and giving pic-
torial point to a situation, depicted

"Despise not your enemy."
To despise his enemy was ever a
pet weakness of the Britisher; anti
somnianders in the field have had to
urgently appeal for reinforcements to
the home authorities ever since the
days of Wellington in Portugal. Dur-

The seine drama was played in the

of Khartoum and the death of the
heroic Gordon to awaken John Bull
to the seriousness of the situation,

STORY OF BLACK GEORGE
THE MEN WHO - HAVE RULED
OVER. SERVIA.
`The Obrenovitch Family Were
Kings ifor Nearly One
Hundred. Years.
The Kingdom of Servia, in which
in ono shrort swift hour a few nights
ago.a dynasty was extinguished for-
ever and the stage -swept clean 'for
the coming of a new regime, is in
the center of the, ever -troubled Bal-
kans. The blue Danube bounds the
little kingdom . on 'the north, and
separates it from Austria-Illungary;
to the west, between Servia and the
Adriatic, are Bosnia and' aaon.ten-
egro; i:o the east is Bulgaria, and
to the south is Turkey, Servia's tra-
ditional foe. Here live about 2,-
500,000 people — a people whose
hot blood and whose semi -non-ac-
ceptance of the conrventions of mod-
ern Duropean eiv:ilization could
scarcely bo more vividly illustrated
than in Um tragedy that was play-
ed recently in the palace at Bel-
grade.
The little kfregdoni has always
been the center of plots and count-
erplots, violence, and intrigue,
blurAshed and oppression. For cen-
t rios it was a Turkish province,
with all that that 'means in the way
of tyranny and the systematic blot-
ting out of national life. Christ-
ians have suffered there from out-
rages which make the recent trou-
bles in Macedonia trifling. The
strain industry is swinehcrding, and
the condition of society has been
virvi.dly suggestod many times lately
in descriptions of King Milan, King
Alloxa.nder's father, .or of Queen Dra-
ge., wihe'n it was said that they were
considered dissolute even in Ouch a
country as Servia. These facts
should be' kopt in mind in viewing
the recent tragedy there, and it
siladu•Yd be remembered that the word
"king" may mean anything from
a. monarch of all the Russians to..
a Polynesian chief. •
A VIOLEINT MAN.
The Karageorgovitdh family, in
whose interests the late massacre at
Belgrade was brought about, dates
its power from Kara George, or
Black. George, who, in 1804, after
the massacre by the Janissaries,
headed a revolution against the
Turks. He was the son of a peas-
ant, and it was told of him that in
the revolution of 1787, when he was
fleeing from the Turks, and the Ilia -
or Save proved too much for the .old
man's strength, and he refused to
go on, Black George shot his father
dead rather than have him fall into
the hands of the Turks. Wthen he
was chosen as loader he reminded his
followers of his violent .character,
"I cannot Make speeches," said he,
"but those w;hio disobey me I shall
'kill." ]itis only brother was One of
the first to stiffer this fate. To the
