Three British eheer$0
••••••••••-•••••
(By G. J. Sieweale, Clinton.) e•
When Britain'a sone had fought their wit9
se O'er rugged pess, and drift, and moor,
And brought relief to leineherley,
in spite of Rebel, Gael and Bocr,
Throughoue our Empire s wide domain
The tidings spreed, till far and near,
Io loed, prolonged, deternsined strain,
Was heard the etirring British cheer,
The eohoes faint end fainter grew,
And then our Empire news reoeiyed
That Britains, to their country ttue,
At last had Ladysmith relieved;
Again the simbinspirina sound,
Which all our foenaen dread to hear,
Burst forth in Dements most profound;
Thie was our second British oheer.
A deeply anxious, earnest pause,
Then, like a flash, from sea to sea
Is heard the triumph of ourentuee,
The feet that Mafeking is free;
Then wildly rose, in thunder tone,
From every quarter of thislplaere,
As male re-etilmed back to zone,-
. Cur third' and grandest British oheer.
The taotics a our gallant chief
Soon taught our foeg their hope was vain,
They still resist, though slight and brief
The warfare they in part maintain; .
'Pretoria yields without a blow;
• The war is o'er, and future years '
Shall prove to friend and teach te foe
The meaning of three British cheers,
.•
Now give a cheer for Kimberley,
For Lade smith a seemed ring,
• A third, with al; the heare you may,
For Powell and for Mafeking;
While thus true Britabas nobly stand,
From foeci without we have n�fear;
We'll firmly grasp each other's hand
Awl give three rousing Britieh cheers.

Recently there has been much. a rgu
bent abroad aiming to prove that the de.
validation of criminals is the most cruel
fore), possible of inflicting the death sen-
tence. - Some of the pronounced oppo.
„ciente of this form ef capital punishment
declared that the. circulation of blood in
the severed headdid not cease for three
hours and that during that period the
heed could see, hear and emell, Dr.
Worm, A German expert, has felt moved
to reply to these statements. Ile stye
that he handled many heads of decapitat-
ed criminals 'and tleat there is not the
least doubt possible as to the fact at ale
solute death.
"Immediately after the execution," he
says, "the heads • were pale, entirely
bloodless and absolutely without life.
Not even reflex actions could be pro.
ducel, and only for a_ Phort period could
the galvanic current produce them. . But
a most interesting inquiry would be that
of remaining spinal energy in the decap-
itated body. Beheaded frogs,' chickens,
ducks and even rabbits have been known
to carry out independent movements,
Such as scratching of an ireitated spot,
-serking away an extremity when it was
pinebed and going through the motions
of running, swimming and jumping,"
Apropos •of this Dr. Wurm quotes this
queer tale told in a booltpublished in
1088 in Hamburg entitled t"Greatest
Things In the World; or, So Called Re-
lations Curiosee. • ,
"Emperor Ludwig of Bavaria in 1337
sentenced Sir Dietz of Schauenburg 'with.
Tour squires to death for freebooting. At
the plaee of execution Sir Dietz begged
• the judges to shit him and his squires into
irsraw,„egeh man One foot from the next.
Then he was to be executed first, and his
bony would- arise and run as far along
the row ot prisoners as he could. Each
man whom he succeeded•in passing was
to be let free. • The judges laughed .and
granted the request, saying that never
before had they seen a beheaded 'man
run.: Thereinion 'Dietz put his men in it
row' placing. the one whom he liked -the
• bestnearest to him. Then he. kneeled,
•the sword fell and took his head off eleao,
and in the next instant the body had ..
• risen and was darting by the four then.
It an past them all and fell prone a few
feet beyond the farthest one. Then the
emperor pardoned the neeie as his judgee
had promised."

IRVING AND MO-NTAGIJE.
one of Their Practical. Jokes That
Seared Their Friends,
In Scott's "The Drama of Yesterday
and Today" the author tells of a practical
,3olre played by Irving and Harry Monta-
gue upon a number of their friends, and
"in its execution was seen the Arst dawn-
ing glimmer of that tragic force that wale
ultimately to find expression in Hood's
'Dreamof Eugene Anne' and 'The
Bells.", Irving and Montague, hitherto
the best allies, began to.quarrel on their
Way to a picnic, and their friends feared
some tragic consequences. After lunch-
eon both of the men disappeared.„
Smalehi face turned deadly Pale, He
felt that his worst fors were being real-
ized., With one wild cry: ."Theyfre gone!
What ou earth has become of Wein?" he
made a dash down the .Dargle. over the
rocks and bounders, with the remainder
of the picnic party at his heels.
At the bottom of a "dreadful hollow
behind _the little wood" it fearful sight
presented Itself to the astonished friends.
There on n stone sat Henry Irving in his
• shirt, sleeves, his long hair matted over
his eyes, his 'thin bands and White Race
all smeared with blood and dangling an
-open clasp. knife,
• He was muttering to himself in a say -
age tone: "I've done it! I've done itl.
said Ihvould! I said I would!"
Tom Smale, bleu' agony of Peer, rushed
up to Irving, who waved him on one side
with threatening gestures. "For God's
sake, man," screamed. the .distracted
Senile, "tell us where he is!"
Irving, scarcely moving a muscle, point-
ed fo a heap of dead leaves and in sepul-
ehral tones cried: "He's there, therel
Itve done foe him! I've murdered himl"
Sinale. literally bounded to the leap and
began flinging aside the leaves in every
direction. Presently he found the body
of Harry Montague lying face downward.
Almost paralyzed with tbrror, Swale just
managed to turn 'the heed round and
-found Montague convulsed with laughter,
with, a pocket handkerchief in his mouth
to prevent an explosion.' 'Never was. bet-
ter acting see11 on any stage.
