THE CHIEF END OF MAN.
RU Feet. Not H Head. and This Is
Not a Joke.
Apparently man has been greatly
mistaken in attributing to his mind
supremacy among the anlmals, sn-ys
the London Globe. A medical writer
In one of the magazines, to use an ap
plicable phrase, knocks this idea on
the head. From an anatomical stand
point of human brain hardly differs
from that of the anthropolt ape, and
intellectually the' Australian bushman
is a'.d to be the inferior of the edu
cated orang-outrang In the zoological
gardens. Man's p:oud position in the
anir.:al world is due rather to his heels
than to his head, cnd be it noted that
man is the only animal which can
balance itself upon its heels. This
acquisition, simple as it appears, is
the result of evolutionary processes
stretching 1rAck to the dim past, when
our ancestors Inhabited trees and
cracked nuts with the enthusiasm of
latter-day vegetarians. Even now,
among the fiat-footed tribes, the art
of balancing on two heels is unknown,
and "it is only in the highly civilized
nations of Europe and America and
their dependencies that the action is
fully displayed." We are told that
those types of animals which have by
the agency of their legs and feet most
successfully solved the problem of ter
'restrial locomotion as regards stabil
ity of posture and activity of move,
ment are those which are physically
best fitted to live in other respects.
Fortunately for man his ancestors,
with that unrest which is the spur of
progress, wearied of their first trail
ing or dragging gait, and did not even
rest contented when they had learned
the difficult art of hopping. Pushing
on, they attained to a straight-kneed
plantigrade gait, and "the supremacy
of man was front that time estab
lished."
F eTo the _fiinitiatd the days of armos
have I g since gone, but a visit to a
'-eertain firm situated in the west end
of London will reveal the fact that
hundreds of vests of mail are sold an
nually to officers in the British army.
The maker is a well-known gunsinith.
and a large portion of his income
is derived, not from manufacturing
guns, but through the sale of armor to
oflicers. As a general rule the mail is
inclosed in a leather casing, which is
sown inside the tunic so as to be in
visible unless the garment is picked
to pieces. And the same with helmets
--a similar device is fixed as lining
so as to give additional protection in
case of need. Some officers are not
above wearing mail vests underneath
their tunics and perfectly obvious tC
their comrades, who, although they
may scoff in time of peace, would be
only too glad to don one themselves
.when in the middle of hostilities. The
majority of the maker's customers are
-officers, because the suits are very ex
pensive, costing about $51 each. Never
theless, some "Tommies" are prepared
to spend that amount in order to in
e themselv a ' rtain extent
n -^ .nt bullets.
distance, of course. these suits .cf ar
mior are next to useless, although they
anay be ijrstrumental in turning its
course or stopping its penetrating
- power. During the Chino-Japanese
a 'r of 1895 the maker in question sent
out' several hundred suits of armor,
which were eagerly bought up by the
- combatants at a heavy price. During
ethe American war of last year he did
-the same thing; i' was not so success
ful, for he found he had been fore
stalled by Yankee firms, and such
icers in the American army as had
tended going in for a suit of mail
-d already obtained them. He then
offered his goods to the Spaniaras,
wz~ho proved to be good customers, and
wf'sprepard~ to pay a good price for
the luxury. A notable instance of the
value of mail occurred during the bat
tle of Onidurman last September. One
officer, who is well known, got into the
thick of the fight 'and was slashed on
sides by the dervishes. His men
e lurprised to see that he had es
ped all the force of the blows, ex
pecting to see him fall from his horse
every minute a mass of wounds. After
the battle was over, however, he ap
peared perfectly unscathed save for a
- few slight wounds on the chest% Then
he revealed the suit of mail which cov
ered him and to w~ch he owed his
life.-London Globe.
Japan is taking another important,
step toward the higher plane of modern
civilization by separating the church
from the state. A bill is now before
the House of Peers abolishing End
dhism as the officially recognized re
ligion of the state and placing al
creeds on an equal footing, and it is
said that it will surely pas. Thus
within the brief pev'ioa of thir'ty years
or so Japan has enmerged from a st.ite
of complete heathen barbarism and
established her right to a place in the
front rank cf the most liberal and en
.ightened of the civilize-1 nations of
the earth.

!PLUCKY LADY WILSON.
ACVENTURES THAT BEFELL HER
AMONG THE BOERS.
More Extraord Inary Than Any Enconn
tered by a Woman of rfank in Thia
Centuiry-Alone AIong the Sarages.
A Young lDoer Her Knightly Squire.
ADY SARAH WILSON, the
handsome and adventurous!
daughter of the house of
Marlborough, is regarded as
a modern Joan of Are by English so
cietv.
'he auventures through which she
is passing in the Doer war are m-ore
extraordinary than have fallen to '!ec
lot of any woman of rank in t~.us
century, and place her alongsidte of
those women of the Middle Ages who
defended cities and endured the hor
rors of war.
Anple details have now been re
ceivrd in letters from Lady Sarah of
her experiences up to the time she re
turned to Mafeking.
She was first besieged, then es
caped; was caught after many thrilling
adventures; acted as a spy; was
ordered to be confined in a certain
town and escaped from it, and finally
was exchanged for a Doer officer and
returned to the b3sieged place from
which she had started.
ESILGED INAFEKNG.
At the beginning of the war Lady
Sarah was with her husband, Captain
Gordon Wilson, in Mafeking. the
chief town of British Bechuanaland,
which lies northwest of the Trans
vaal. It was held by Colonel Baden
Powell, with the Fifth Dragoons,
about 900 strong. Captain Wilson is
an officer of the Horse Guards, but
was out in South Africa on special
service, and had really attached him
self to Colonel Bader-PowelL for the
sake of adventure. He has found it..
The redoubtable General sCronje,
who g ured Jameson and his
raidot, besieged Mafelking with 3000
-efrs. Colonel Baden-Powell rein
forced his little body of regulars by
enrolling and drilling all the able
bodied men of Mafeking. Thus he
gathered a force of nearly 2000 men.
Lady Sarah took an active part in
the wo rk of the solIiers, and even ia
companied Lhe armored trains that
went out of Mafeking to fight the
Boers.
At the end of a month, however, it
Sbecame clear to Lady Sarah that she
as a useless mouth to feed and an
embarrassment to the brave garrison.
On the other hand, if she could es
cape from Mafeking, she would be
able to render a real service by carry
ing exact news of the condition of the
beleaguered town to the outside world.
ALONE AMONG THE SAVAGE;.
She started out to ride over hun
dreds of miles of desert and moun-:
tan, infested not only by armed
Boers, but by wandering bands of:
bloodthirsty savages. The chance of:
falling into the hands of the latter
was the most appalling danger she
ran. She may almost consider her
self rtunate that she was captured
bye rough but humane Boers.
as eal oThrdymorning
~~Thfekking, She
aried her rifle and plenty of ~amma-~'
nition and three days' supply of pro
visions. She rode all day. During
the afternooa1 she was sighted by a
band of savages, but having a much
better horse she was able to get away
from them.
At nightfall she reached Setlagoli, a
small station in British territory, but
in a region now occupied by the
Bers. Here there was a hotel, wherec
the proprietor and a few servants still
remained. Lady Sarah put up here
for the night.
Just at dawn she was awakened by
a terrific rattling of musketry and
rapid firing guns. She dressed her
self, mounted her horse and rode in
the direction of the firing, taking her
camera with her in the hope of ob
taining some photographs.
When she got to the scene of the 1
trouble she found that a British
armored train had been wrecked by
the Boers. The train was command- 1
ed by Captain Nesbitt, of the Mash
onaland Mounted Polie, who was
trying to ran through to Mafeking
with anmuition. He and all his1
men were killed or captured.
Lady Sarah was seen by the Boers
and taken prisoner. She was held
for two days at Setlagoli, but amoa~
the soldiers here were a number of
blackguards, chiefly T ~itlanders, who
insulted her. The officer in command.
who did his best to protect her, there
fore sent her back to Mochudti, an
important Beer centre in the vicinity~
of Maf eking. Here she was given
over to the custody of a colonial
farmer, a British sui ject, but of Doer1
descent.
A cIIlvALnOCs YOUNG BOER.
This farmer was a strikingly hand
some young fellow, about thirty years
of age, over six feet high, bread
shouldered and fair haired, an ideal
Beer in appearance. He displayed a
chivalrous devotion to his fair pris
oner, which she now fears may bring
him into troub~le with the Boer author
While at Mochudi Lady Sarah es
tablisled a regular spy system by
means of which she supplie/i Colonel
Baden-Poweli with information of the
utmost value concerning the Boer
plans. B3y informing him that the
Beers on the southern side of Mate
king were being drawn awvay to the
siege of Kimberley she enabled him to
make a sortie in which he killed thirty
Beers and captured 2!500 rounds of
ammuiton.
Lady Sarah secured the services of
a native runner, who became so de
voted to her that he would have risked
death in any form to do her errands.
She used to meet him late at night on
Ithe outskirts of her Boer host's farm,
and there give him messages for the
beseiged garrison of Mafeking. He hid
these in his luxuriant hair, which was
bound up with a copper ring on top
of his head. On thes journeys be
,wen Mochudi and Mateking he ran
almost as much chane of being shot
by the British as by the Boer sen
At this time a large number of the
Boers wvero withd? awn from Mafecing
to aid in making the siege of Kimnber
e more severe. C omandant Cronjie
himslf went to !Kimbuey and lef t his
s~bordinate comumaudant, Snyman. at
E-atking
a desire to visit Vryburg, an important
point on the railroad from Iafeking
to Kimberley. It was particularly in
teresting just ihen because the Doers
were passing through it on their vty
to the latter place.
The dauntless English woman per
suaded the young Doer farmer to take
her to Vryburg. He inspauned his
great wagon with four oxen and they
started out on the long journey to
gether.
At Tryburg Lady Sarah found imany
things of interest. She visited the
hospital, where she found a number
of wounded English prisoners, whom
she consoled as well as she could.
She bought some delicacies for the-;e
prisoners, and also -ome comforts
which she needed herself.
Then she was pained to learn that
the Boer authorities had given orders
that she should not be allowed to
leave the town. One more she mafle
use of the young Boer farmer.
She made hiii go with her before
ihe Laudarost, or 'Magistrate, who
had been put in charge of the town
by the Boers, and swear that Lady
Sarah was his sister. He had to au
swer many einbarassing questions put
to him by the Magistrate concerning
his lack of fanily resemblance to hi
"sister," her English accent, her
clothes so different from those worn
by Boer women, and miany othCr
matterl.
The young Boer explained thai iti3
sister had been educated in England,
which is the case with a number of
Boers. Fortunately, there was no
one at hand who knew the exact
facts about Lady Sarah, and the
Landdrost, apparently a kiudly mau,
let her go. In order to run no further
risks she left Vryburg at I o'clock in
the morning with her Boer friend.
When she got back to Mochudi an
other calamity awaited her. Comn
mnandant Snyiuan had discovered that
she had been sending dispatches into
Iafeking. Up to that time lie had
been in some doubt as to how to treat
her. Now he had n1o more doubt.
He held her strictly a prisoner,
locked her up and put an armed
guard over her. Then Colonel Baden
Powell ->imanded Lady Sarah's re
lease as a noncombatant. Com
mandant Snyman replied that she
was a spy, and that lie was behaving
with leniency when ho consented to
exchange her for an important Boer
officer held by the British. He inti
mated that he had a perfect right to
shoot poor Lady Sarah as a spy.
The gallant Colonel Dadeu-Powell
could not bear the thought of leaving
a woman-and such a woman-in ,o
distressing a position. He therefore
exchanged his Boer prisouer for her,
and she was returned to her husbaud
and the garrison of 1afeking.
In a recent sortie from M?.afekiug
her husband was wounded, and so
she has him to nurse in addition to
her other occupations.
Lady Sarah Wilson is the tenth
hild ~of a former Danke of MIarl
borough, and is about the same age
as her nephew, the present Dake.
She is the youngest sister of the late
Duke-who married Mrs. Ham
eslev, of New York-and of the late
Lerd Randolph Church'hl
Vilson, an Austrahian milhionaire.
She is a tall, handsome woman,
rith an insatiable fondness for out
*oor sports and for foreign travel and
dvenuture.
