Strange Experience of a Trooper.

Strange as have beea the experiences of many British soldiers, during the Soath African war, those which have bsfaUen a New Zealand trooper, Qaartermaster-Serpeant Doagil, who left England recently, aw dscidely out of the common. Enlisting in the New Zealand contingent, heg*ined his pre sent rank after hiving been fonr times wounded. While one of Lord Roberta's bodygaard he was gent into hospital Rt Pretoria. On recovering sufficiently to be discharged he found th*t white in hospital he had been robbed of the Oommaader-m.abiePs silver bodyguard badge and all the money he possessed —£15 in gold. From Pretoria hi w™ Invalided to England, and having been gtliM farlough proceeded to his ffttfaVthoma in Stirlingshire. Here. while he wm recuperating his father received New Zealand papers contain ing notification, cabled from the official Hit!''in London; of his son's " death. Quartermaster-Sergeant Doug*! Ac once informed the authorities fch*fe he was by no means defaoot, and in proof of Ms statement pat ip »n appearance in London before sailing on Saturday to rpjoin his- comrades in the colonies. He was granted furlough because he was alive; he has not received his war medal, preauraably because he was •» dead.'*

An American on Australians.

An American can dance on rhetori cal stUts of the very talle3t sort 00 behalf of bis own country j but he doe? nob often undertake that performance on behalf of any other land. 001000 l Bell, however, for some time the Atua rican Oonsul-Geaeral of Australia, delivered an address to the London Chamber of Commerce, which may well tlekta the vanity of all Australians. Tib* centra of the commercial world, Colonel Bell told the astonished mag nates of London, " was sbifdog to wards Australia, whoae external trade with her fonr and a hall millions of inhabitants was far ahead of Rusai» wi|h her 120 millions; it waa four tlmeMbat of Japan, with her forty millions | and twice that of Ohioa, with her 400 millions. Australia's export trade," Colonel Bell went on t<> say, *' ought to be evao greater," That II wfts not greater, Colonel Bell bluntly laid bis audience, was due to English stttpidifcy: While herdejnf oabtle were perishing on bar plains the British N i?y was fed on American beef, and British soMiera In South Aftle* ooniumed American instead of Aui traliaa ftarar. There was no patriotism in commerce. Tire Australian was, as recent evanti have proratf, thoroughly loyal—but ftuppoae h« nseb an Englishman and a Oormto he would probably drink with the Eogiishttiau and trade with the Getm»n, for fche trading ofiar of the latter ia moat oases weald bs tha bettor. The fact was that mtiv fo»n vroali boy ia the cheapest market*

Oolonel Bell'd speech included en excursus on th« fairness of British policy; Wherever the British fh(? flouted there wm jaßiio?. Anieric* knew this, and lo'lowed BngUnd, forcing her goods 01 EcgHah iSoloalif, b9oaußß Id so doing she gained 'prottoiao for her eommeresi Amoriai did not wrab ioy land belonging to England* for If *h» gob ib she woold have to p»y taxes for Ib, ftnd thkt she preferred to sec other people doing ' Colonel Bell concluded with a pok" ©I great, if aly, humour at Australians thpmseJves; " The great problem to hn lolted was th%t of cheap production with high wages, and thh he believed Invention, improvem nts, and science woald do if laboir did a little less talking and a little more thinking , , . • !" Colonel B6li's speech

Wat on the whole a vpry characteristic bit of American oratorj—kiea, ahrewd hamoroQP, and plain-sjioken—md it may well render ft real flTvicn to "A^fctralla itself, —Review of Revkius.

Gold Mines of Pharaohs Dis covered.

Lovdok, Oct. 17.~EgFpt is the latest recruit to the rank«? of gold producing eottntrSes of ihe world. The ancient mtoeß of the- Pharaohs, which were in existence Jong before the time of the exodas of the Israelites and furnished gold for tha &dornrrjent ; r,f the Temple of Babylon^ will shlrfcly yield ballionfor the ooliiga<of the twentieth century. Charles J Alford, a mining engineer, 'who hi*& jaat explored the mountainous region*.between the Nile and the Red Sea;, &nd eaocee4ed in locating several loog lost mining sites, this evening gave the lofttltate of.-Mining snd Metallurgy the reaalfcs of his inyestigatijn.

" Despite the difficulties arising from the scarcity of water and lack of trans* pojtatfoß, 1 said he, ° Egypt offers a promising field for gold seekers. This country, which once possessed sufficient gold to supply .the whole world, is still rich, not alone la gold, bat also in lead, silver, tnrquolse, emerald, beryl, por phyry, and marble. Assays of a qaar z mine which has not been worked tince the ninth century show a percentage of gold ranging from a few pennyweights to ten ounces to the ton.

"Tho Egyptian Government is not pwticalarly anxious at present to encour age the development: of mines, yet offers corporations and responsible individuals prospecting concessions of a large area and mining leases on fairly reasonable terms. The railway projected and surveyed between Keneh and Koaseir will pass close to some of the mines."
