Vanity of Pakenham
Brought Him Defeat
The American forces under Andrew
Jackson at New Orleans in- January,
1815, inflicted severe losses on-the
British troops because General Taken- -
ham, the British commander, insi&v
ed upon carrying out a set method of
attack which did not prove success
ful against the Americans, points out.
Clifford Raymond in an article in Lib
erty.
“It was British tradition,” continues
the author, “that troops could take a
position in frontal attack, carrying
material for filling ditches and lad
ders for scaling walls. It was also in
the history of British regiments In
America that they had not done it on
many occasions; but Takenham, with
his reputation to maintain, was con
vinced that he had do it, even with
Andrew Jackson animating, the troops
behind the breastworks.
“Takenham died rallying the men,” v
explains Raymond, “when they with
ered under the rille and artillery fire.
Before that fire, in 25 minutes the
storm troops of Great Britain disap
peared. There were^00 killed, 1.400
wounded, and *500 taken prisoners.
The American loss .was 8 killed and
15 wounded.”

Peking Child Beggars
Bane of Foreigners
Even Cairti and Naples cannot com
pare with Peking* in the number and
persistence of the professional beggars
who swarm upon the streets and an
noy strangers with their supplications.
In Pekingxthe casual tourist will do
well to buy a “small* dime” coppers
before he goes out—that means twen
ty-eight coppers—apd, to distribute a
copper here and a copper there. It
purchases immunity from annoyance.
^ The permanent resident obtains im
munity only by being as “hard-hearted”
as the Chinese themselves—ahd never
giving. If one lives in Peking for a
time andTnaintains a ’ricksha boy and
several servants, one’s doorway will
not be bothered, for the magical words
“ta boo gay”—•‘He nothing gives”—
spread rapidly. Recently the doorways
of the foreign hotels were beseiged by
swarms of ragged little girls of eight
or ten years, each carrying a tiny,
wailing, naked infant, supposedly
their starving little sisters.. As a mat
ter of fact, these, little begging girls
are all hired, as are also the infants,
by.fat, sleek men who control this beg
gar ring and prey upon ignorant for
eigners.

When Chess Was Put

rope at the time of the Crusades, the
theory being that Christian warriors
learned to play it at Constantinople,
but this has been disproved.
^iore .probable it is that the Span-
iajds received the game from their
Moslem conquerors, who had learned
it from the Persians, who rn their
turn had been initiated into it by the
Hindus, while the Italians acquired
chess fronuJliq Byzantines. -
It seems that chess was known In

Qne of the great charms in the na-
tional parks in the Cahatlian Rockies
is.tlie variety and beauty of the wild
flowers. At first thought one would
perhaps not expect to tind an obnn-
dant tfnd interesting flora amid the
higher altitudes, but, strange as it
may seem, the .wild-flower gardens
which bloom above the clouds in the
Upper regions are aiyong the most
beautiful in the world. - Over 500 va
rieties have been identified by -bot
anists, and their exquisite color, fra
grance, and delicate loveliness add the
last" touch to the charm of that won
derful region. i
Colorado Cattle
Cattle did not originate in (Jolorado.
The Spaniards brought cattle into
their settlements- in the Southwest
and some into the southern parts of
the state, but these cattle joined the
buffalo and had disappeared when the
settlement of Colorado began. The
gold discoveries, attracting many thou-
sanjls, and the establishment of Den
ver and other towns called for meat
wh|ch resulted In the driving in of
the Texas cattle or “long horns.”
That was the beginning of the In
dustry.
