Everybody Welcome
Delhi.
The defense and explosion of
the great magazines at Delhi 5(>
years ago, on May 13, 1857, de
serves to rank along with the
great achievements of history,
not excepting even > Leonidas at
Thermopylae or the immortal
three who held the bridges across
the Tiber against Lars Porsena.
The magazine was a huge
building packed with arms ami
ammunition, andw as in charge
of Lieutenant Willoughby and
eight subordinates. It was nine
men against a great city. Know
ing that I hey count not hold their
ground against such odds, a fuse
was run into the magazine and at
ils outer end a mail was station
ed with portllre iu hand.
Presently came a summons to
surrender, which was, of course,
refused, and then on came the
swarms of Sepoys Willoughby's
eight guns the meanwhile (each
worked by a single, mail;, pour
ing death into them. But on came
the swaying mass of Sepoys, a.
rain of death falls upon the little
band from the walls and in an
otlier moment will come the rush
of bayonets. Willoughby raises
his hand, Scully applies the port
lire to the fuse, and the mighty
magazine goes up in one huge
thunderclap. The whole city
seems to shake with the concus
sion, and a great pillar of smoke
rises in the sky. "It is the sig
nal to heaven and earth how the
nine Britons who kept the great
magazine had fulfilled their
trust.”
Of the gallant nine, Scully, who
fired the fuse, and four others,
vanished along with hundreds of
the mutineers but, strange to say,
Willoughby and three others es
caped death.

Mrs. George Treat, who was
appointed a member of the board
of guardians for weak minded
children of the Third Division
and with Judge Brown and Mar
shal Sullivan, constitute the
board for this judicial division,
may be called upon to take care
of little Josie Bourke, who has
been caught breaking windows,
flying kites and in many ways
disturbing the peace. The little
igirl remained at the Orpheum
Theatre last night until midnight
watching Manager Pinkus test
his new bunch of reels, which
are beauties,' and no amount of
threats could force weak minded
Josie to go home.
