I was kept for kight months in chains
by the mahdi. The chains were of the
thickness of my wrist, one round my
neck aud two about my arms and legs.
In addition to this, I was tied to a pole
like a dog or a bear.. This treatment
did not begin ' immediately upon my
capture. The mahdists never, of
course, treated me very cordially, but
considering their fanaticism toward all
unbelievers, I had really not very much
to complain of before I was cast into
chains. To the mahdists, ail non-
mahdists are infidels, whether Moham
medan, Christian, Jews, or anything
else, and all infidels are de med worthy
only to be slain. I was taken in the
mahdi's suite to Khartum, and when
we arrived at the walls the mahdi
asked me to write a letter to Gen. Gor
don calling upon him to surrender,
Accordingly I wrote a letter in tier
man, which no one in the mahdi's camp
could control in' any way, aud it was
duly dispatched, t No answer, however,
was returned, and from that, as well
as from other indications, the mahdi
concluded that I had not carried out
his wishes. Therefore he cast me into
chains. . .
' For the next eight months I was
very badly treated. The chains were
so heavy that I could scarcely rise up
at all. When we moved from place to
place I was put on to a donkey, and
two men walked by my aide to
prop me up. i ne ooject oi tnis was 10
prevent my escaping into Khartum,
which they suspected I intended to do.
When Khartum fell, the mahdists
found certain documents which they
considered incriminating, so they in
creased my irons and their severity
toward me. Within an hour of Gtor
don's death his head was brought to
me in my prison wrapped up in a cloth,
Which they unfolded before me. I had
no difficulty in recognizing it at once.
For some reason or other they had
taken it into their heads that I was
Gordon's nephew, and no amount of
arguing could disabuse them of that
notion. They thought they recognized
a likeness, aud they kept repeating
that we both had fair hair aud blue
eyes, as if that were conclusive.
After all, one European seems very
like another to them, just as one negro
seems like another to us. I heard full
details of Gordon's death afterward.
Gordon defended Khartum as well as

men plunged a spear Into his body; he
was dragged down tho steps in a wild
tumult, and pierced through and

Uncle Moses and his wife. Aunt Dilsy,
both being very old and afflicted, were
allowed to occupy a little old cabin anu
use what land they could tend, rent
free.
Uncle Moses requested that he be per
mitted "to cut de trees often dat ar li'l
ranch, what runs from rxv bae yard,
please, sah."
Permission granted, Uncle Moses
didn't look as if he could fell a sapling.
He was so afflicted that he couldn't
plow. It was Aunt Dilsy that plowed.
But he displayed an ability to cut down
trees that was truly oslonishing. Soon
he had u long, narrow strip of rich, low
--round, and Aunt Dilsy plowed it with
the cow. She plowed with the cow be
a use she was of a timid naturr be
sides being afflicted. She would have
been afraid of any other beast, even if
she had had one, which f-he hadn't. And
now, behold the corn! Such a pile of
corn had been raised on "t!at ar li'l
branch bottom," that its fame had
spread abroad over the f lantation.
Very proud and boastful was Uncle
Moses, und great was the crowd at his
corn shucking. Old and young, rent
ers and hired hands, and even Uncle
Dristol Hunt, who owned seven ucrn
of land, were all there. As it was not
a "licker corn shucking," but a 'supper
corn shucking," the ladies were out in
full force.
Conspicuous among them were the
Coni tehee girls, in red Bkirts and new
shirt wuists, the belles of the evening.
Illuming them pretty close, though,
were the Turner girls, who wore only
gingham dresses, but had b'de combs
in their bangs and their back hair ar
ranged in rsyches. The boys were
nunierouH and jolly, several from "over
the crick" being present. .Timmie
(loode, the crack banjo player, was also
there.
"You, Jimmie, dail" cried Uncle
Moses. "Dou't you shuck none o' my
corn; you pick dat banjo, sodesenlg-
cers cun wuk fast. Dis ain't no one-
horse corn pile!"
"All right, Uncle Mose." assented
Jimmie. leadily. "Jesso I don't batter
nick it at supper time," and the fusel
iittting strains of "Georgie Buck" filled
the air.
Tho shucking went or briskly with
increasing hilarity.

The story of the phenlx is a com
mon superstition in several countries.
According to the ancient and best ac
cepted letters the world has but one
phenix. This animal, at the end of 000
years, burns itself to death in a funeral
pyre of its own erection, and as soon
as it expires another phenix with
wings outstretched rises from the
flames. ,
A great many persons firmly be
lieve that ants do not sleep. This
superstition arises f ronTthe fact that in
moonlight nights during the summer
ants have often been seen at work
about their nests. People of almost nil
nations have believed that ants lay up
food for the winter. The alleged fact
is mentioned many times in ancient
and modern literotures, and is directly
stated In the Book of Proverbs. They
do no such thing. During the winter
they remain in a torpid or semi-torpid
condition, reviving under tho genial
warmth of the spring sun.
