which, some twenty-nine years, ago, sent
a military expedition to Megdals,, the
capital, to punish tbe then Negus. Theo-
dore, for having imprisoned the British
Captain Cameron, and his suite,
and
others of nee Majesty's subjeets.
This force, which was wider •the com-
mand of Sir 'Robert Napier, was organ-
ized in Bombay, and consisted. a 4,000
British and 8,000 Sepoy troops. The
British expedition was muoh mere for-
tunate than that now being Undertaken
by the Italiaos. The army was debarked
itt Annesley Bay, and in January, 1866,
commenced a long and atfficult march
or 400 miles to Magdala. On April 9th
the troops arriveci in front of the fort-
ress, and were attacked the following
d-aV by the Abyssinians, who were de-
feated with a loss of 700 killed and. 1,-
200 waanded, the British casualties
amounting to only 20 wounded. The
storming of Magdala took place, on April
13th, an(j wa.s acoomplished with a loss
of only 15 British wounded. Theodore
committed suicide by shooting himself
when the British were making their
entry. As a. reward for his splendid
management of the expedition General
Naples was raisecl to the peerage, with
• the title of Lord Napier of Magdala.
ONE OP NAPIER'S OFFICERS,
It nuty not be generally known that
there is now residing in Toronto a
gallant officer, now retired from the
British army, who accompanied Gen-
eral Napier's expedition in the capacity
of Provost Marshal. This gentleman,
whose modesty prevents him from grant-
ing the use of his name for publication,
is, from the exceptional opportunities
which fell to his lot, and of which he
follY availed lainiself, thoroughly con-
versant with Abyssinia, its people, and.
reeonrce-s, and the conditions under
which warfare is carried on in the cousa-
try. The gallant officer gave a news-
paper reporter the following informa-
tion which ma sr be deemed of interest
to the public at the present juncture.
"Abyssinia," he said "with reference
to its,physical geography, may be broad-
ly stated to be a suece,ssion of high
table -lands, intersected by valleys of the
greatest fertility. The plateaux rise
to a height generally of between five
and six thousand feetabovethe sea.level,
and the air is rarefied. and bracing at
this altitude. • Great variations of cli-
mate are experienced, and. the British
expedition fourid it by no means a rare
occurrence to have sixteen degrees a
frost on the plateaux before sunrise,
while after 8 oaloclr a temperature of
one hundred was not unusual. Coffee

Twenty-five years ago H. B. Mears,

is one of the most important productions
in the lower districts, and wheat, maize,
rentet, rice, and cotton are also raised.
Barley and oats are grown on the higher
lands. The food of the people consists
of a kind of bread called gogo, which
is made from coarse flour and wild
honey. Meat, of course, is largely used,
sheepiand oxen being plentiful. Trans-
port s almost entirely carried on by
means of oxen and mule. Prior to the
British occupation it may be said there
were no roads of any sort in Abyssinia,
and mountain tracks alone furnished
means of communication. No money- is
coined. in the country, and barter is the
chief method of carrying, on business.
There is some money, a. few Mexican dol-
laxs having been brought in by the
British. Up- to that time salt slabs
were the common currency of the coun-
try, 'which readily •passed hands as
money. Salt is not fonnd in the coun-.
try, but is brought from the Gallo,
country by caravans.
THE PRESENT RULER.
Meneleak, the present; Negus, 18
personally known to me. He must
be now between fifty and sixty years
of age. He is a =an of fine phy-
siqae, with rather black complexion
for an Abyssinian, a good face, and
fine profile. At the time of the Brit-
ish occupation, Meneleck was Prince
of Shoo., a province which formerly ac-
knowledged the sovereignty of the Abys-
sinian monarch. The foriner ruler.
Theodore, was, however, an adventurer,
and Mende& refused.to pay tribute to
him. The latter was very friendly to
the British in their march through the
country, and. rendered General Napier
good service by keeping open the lines of
communication and fu.rinshing supplies,
for which he was most liberally remun-
erated, but withoat which it would. have
beeri almost impossible to have carried
on the campaign. Meneleck entered the
country at the request of General
Napier, who received the Prince and his
staff at Attigera.t, in the very locality
where the Italiast reverses are reported
to have occurred, and. entertained them.
The, Prisice remained. loyal to the l3rit-
ish, and. after the capture and. destruc-
tion of Magdala, he again met the Brit-
ish general, on his way back, at Senate.
Here he received. from General Napier a

which corresponds somewhat to the

There is no breed of lerge horses in the

days coneisted of it siekle-shaped sword,

A TASK. FOR THE ITALIANS.
Information I have recently received
places the fighting steength of the Ab-
yssinian army at from 70,000 to 75,000
men number e of whom heve been more
or less 'instructed by Russian officers.
It is difficult at present to say what
the ultimate result of the war will be.
In addition to the arms they lormerly
possessed, the A.byssinians received
many old Snider s from tbe Britishand,
I believe, have been importing, weap-
ons and ammunition from Britain dur-
ing, the last ten years. It the Abys-
amens haye been educated in strategy,
and their army is superior to wItat it
was when I WAS there, I do not think
the country can he reduced, by the
Italians with a smaller foree than 10,-
000 men fully equipped with all the
resources of civilization. There are por-
tions of the country known to ate so
difficult to force by an invading arMY
tbat if resolutely held they inight be
considered almost ixnpregnable,and
cannot be turned. The great difficulty
the Italians will have to compete against
will be keeping open their lines of com-
munication, and preventing detached
portions of their force from being con-
stantly harassed and being cut off.
Ths passes from Massowah into Abys-
sinia proper can only be held by detach-
ed posts at regular intervals, and in
the period. of the rainy season they
would be impossible to Maintain. I
really think the Italians have their
work cut out for them, and it will
need a, well equipped and perfectly of-
ficered, to overcome the resistance of
the Abyssinians.”
TRAGEDY IN WINNIPEG.
Flee in a Tenement Ituildin.e. Results in
the Death or Major Illorrthe and Ms
"Wife—Several Others Seriously Injured
—Mrs. Joseph Martin at the Point of
• Beate.
A despatch from Winnipeg, says
Fire broke out on Monday morning
about seven o'clock in the Cauchon tene-
ment block on South Main street, one
of Winnipeg's largest buildings. By
nine o'clock the north half of the four -
storey block had been consum.ed. The
balance of the building was saved by a
fire wall and, after a hard fight by the
fixemen. There .were seventy tenants
in the building, and those occupying
suites in tlae burned portion lose all
their possessions,escaping scantily attir-
ed by means of fire escapes and. ladders,
the stairway being cut off by the fire.
The first body taken out was Major
Morrice, one of Winnipeg's oldest and
best-known residents. He was still
breathing when carried out by the fire-
men, but died. in a. few minutes. His
wife was burned to death in her apart-
ments, the body not being found until
after the floors had fallen. Both were
elderly people, a.nd parents of a large
family of children, who are prominent in
social circles. Among those seriously
injured are Mis.s Carter and Mr. and
Mrs. Baby, whosainjuries were sustain-
ed by jumping from the upper windows.
They are in the hospital.
Major Morrice was a pioneer of win-
nipeg, having come here with the On-
tario Rifles in 1868, filling the commis-
sion of brevet -major. All Winnipeg
mourns his death and that of Mrs. Mor -
rice. Among those who narrowly escap-
ed. burning were Mr. Joseph Martin,
member for Winnipeg, his wife, and
ughter. Mrs. Martin, who is an ba-
y lid'was taken out with the greatest
difficulty, and now lies at the point of
death. All the other iejured are doing
nicely. The total loss is about $70,000,
the tenants losing all their goods and
clothing. Only about a third of the
block was destroyed, a heavy fire wall
saving the other portion.

have machuaes always out of order and.
need new ones every few years, and
generally when they are the least able

PHILADELPHIA CAR STRIKE.
A -Practical Tie -Up or the System—A Riot-
ous Demonstration 035 Chestnut Street
A despatch from Philadelphia, Pa.,
says :—The big strike of the motormen
and conductors of the Union Traction
Company was begun at four o'clock on
Tu.esday morning, and the lilies of the
company all over the eity are practically
tied up. The strikers, although deter-
mined, are keeping very quiet, with the
result that there has been no disord,er.
The most serious disturbance so fax re-
ported took place shortly before two
o'clock, on Chestnut street, between
Eighth and Fifteenth, the busiest part
of the city. A crowd collected near
Eighth and. Chestnut st'reets, where the
conductors and motormen of two ears
were induced to leave their posts. The
crowd broke the windows in these cars,
and at this juncture the mob saw aline
of six cars coming down Chestnut street.
They started with a yell for them, and.
the motormen and conductors, as soon
as they saw the angry. crowd coming,
deserted thefr posts and fled up Chest-
nut street as fast as their legs could
carry them. The mob attacked the ears,
smashing every window, tore the fend -
ere from the dashboard.s, arid 'wreaked
all possible destruction, A. group of re-
serve policemen gathered, tat they
were practically powerless'. Inside a
ball hour there were a,bout two cars
to the Meek on Chestnut street, from
Eighth to Fifteenth streets, each sur-
rounded by a howling mob. •Shortly
after two o'elock the Eighth street
line was blocked for the first time.
The company's efforts bad been cert-
centrated on this line. The men work-
ing on it had not been organized, and
oars had been running unInterruptealy
up to that hour. The tie-up on that
street is regarded as a heavy blow to the
cmnpaay.
'rho Meyer has issued. a, proclamation
calling epee all good citizens to essist
the aathorities in, preserving order, ex-
horting them not to collect in crowds
on the streets, and saying "violence, will

Heade on a Berry Pateh.
A.ny intelligent farmer can grow ripe,
luscious strawberries, ready for picking,
at two cents per quart. With good cul-
tivation, at least 100 bushels per acre
should be grown. 200 bushels per acre
is not an unusual yield, and BOO is often
produced. Fruit that can be grown so
cheaply and will yield so much, should
be considered a necessity in every fam-
ily. No one can so well afford. to have
berries, every day in the season, as the
farmer. No one can have them so fresh
from the vines, so ripe, so delicious and
at so little cost, as the farmer, and
yet, as a class, none have so few. The
farmer may have his berries at first
cost. He saves expense of picking and.
provides a pleasure for wife and chil-
dren. Be saves boxes, eases, packing,
freight, express a,nd commission. Every
farmer in the country and every owner
of a house in the village should grow
"big berries and lots of them" for fam-
ily use. He may thus have them fresh
from the vines m suraraer, and canned,
dried, or preserved for winter, There is
no better feed than ripe fruit. There
is none more healthful, and at two or
three cents per quaxt there is none
cheaper. A berry garden for next sea-
son should badecidecl aeon at once. The
best preparation for it is the reading
of good books and papers. Subscribe for
them now, and thus provide the great-
est pleasure for long winter evenings.

• Ing Mining Deal.
A: big mining deal has been conclud-
ed. by a. number of prominent mining
men of Ottawa. Messrs. J. W. Mc-
Rae, Hector McRae, Geo. P. Brophy,
Sohn Brophy, a,nd. .S. H. Fleming have
purchased what is claimed. to be a
valuable plumbago property, paying
therefor the sum of about $30,000: The
property is located about eight miles
from Celabogle, and about thirteen
miles from Renfrew. It is on the farm
of Thomas Moore, on the south shore
of Norway lake, about two miles dis-
tant from the Kingston and Pembroke
railway. It was formerly owned by
Senator MelCin,dse.y. The new owners
believe they have a valuable deposit
of plumbago, and are making arrange-
ments to begin operations early next
spring. They intend shipping direct
to the English markets.
Seale in Boilers.
A. very novel method of getting rid of
scale in it boiler is credited by a Bos-
ton paper to an engineer in that city.
The scale °erne from the use of well
water. The feed pipe enters .the front
of the boiler just above the water line,
and has slots cut in it about an eighth
of an inch wide, instead of the ordinary
spraying method of distributing the wa-
ter, and surrounding the feed ,mpes is
a larger pipe, about six inches ua diam-
eter and cut away at the top',the feed
water enters the boiler and discharges
through the slots in the feed pie, de-
positing all the foreign matter in the
water Into this patch pipe instead of
into the boiler—tbe,suceess of the plan
depending upon havmg a bigh tempera-
ture of feed at about the boiling point,
when the solids held. in suspension or
solution in water will be deposited.
Will Still Customers Cold Air.
A company has been incorporated in
New York City for the purpose of sup-
plying cold air for refrigerating pur-
poses to hotels, restaurants, meat shops,
and households, through a pipe service,
similar to that employed in thead. distribu-
tion of steam. The .air is to be
manufactured by the anhydrous am-
monia process at a central plant, is
piped into mains which are laid beneath
the street, and the house connections are
made by service.pipes, whith are carried
into the refrigerator or cold -storage
compartments. The degree of refrigera-
tion is under perfect control, and any
number of varying temperatures may

For isolated eusteraers 131 clestricts re-
moved from the pipe service the refrig-
erating material is delivered in a steel
oylinder, similar to those in which soda
water is delivered to drug stores.
