These coming in a few minutes lat- er, Red Eric spoke a few words tc his employer.

“‘Come with me. Rex,’’ said the latter rising, ‘‘Bludsoe wants us uJ yonder.’’

Ascending the rise they reached the spot where the athletic cowboy lean- ed against the lone tree, and smoked his pipe.

“‘What’s in the wind?’’ asked Bruno as they drew up beside the statue.

Thereupon Bludsoe waved his hand in a semicircle, with not a little of the natural dramatic spirit found in forceful, decisive characters untrain- meled by the false restrictions of so- ciety.

*“‘Look yonder, and there and there. Those lights you see are signal fires of these black heathen. ‘There’s a method in the way they burn, and I’m dead sure they’re war blazes, in- tended to gather a great force of the warriors in this region; so the soon- er we skip, the better for our health, Lord Bruno,’’ was the startling an- nouncement he so calmly made.

CHAPTER VI.

DR. JAMESON S RIDE AND THE SIEGE OF

BULUWAYO. Their preparations for a chang ef base did not consume much time, since the company of adventurers might be said to be in light march- ing order.

It was really the remarkable man of science who delayed their depart- ure. The professor found himself in a quandary, since he dared not at- tempt to advance in the direction of Buluwayo alone, and could not ven- ture back into the heart of the enemy's country carrying the accum- ulated mass of specimens with which he had burdened himself.

A happy compromise was suggest- ed, of which he hastened to avail himself.

Near by there chanced to be a cleft in the rocks, where possibly at some timic in the remote past a wild beast had made his lair. Into this recep- tacle the scientist dragged his bun- dles, and snugly deposited them, marking the spot so that he might find it again, provided he lived through the dangers that lay in wait for them in the African wilds—dan- gers more real, more terrible than the Scylla and Charybdis of the an- cient mariners.

Jim Bludsoe took command.

Possibly he was to a certain ex- tent in the confidence of his employ- er — at any rate they held frequent whispered consultations, and by de- grees Hastings was induced to relate that portion of his story concerning the appearance of the white god to the cowboy, whose interest seemed to be at once aroused.

They rode cautiously toward the north, and gradually lost sight of the Makalaka signal fires.

Rex had already taken quite a fancy to this Buffalo Bill of the Af- rican wilds, in whom he recognized a man of great determination of char- acter, a king among scouts.

Bludtoe was not a boaster, but had a good command of langaage, being able to paint a_ striking scene in words with as much power as. an artist might employ in manipulating his brush. To but few is given this talent to describe a scene so that it rises before the mental vision with all the charm of a picture.

A few words casually dropped in- formed Rex that Bludsoe had been one of that band of heroic souls who accompaniec Jameson over the bor- der into the land of the Boer.

After that he could not rest con- tent until the ranger had given him a graphic description of the doctor’s ride, the fearful battle in which such a harvest of death was reaped, and the final surrender, though Bludsoe confessed he Was not present When this latter took place, having been charged with a desperate mission by “‘Poctor Jim,’’ which he faithfully executed.

Following this came a_ brief but exceedingly graphic accodnt of the attack on Buluwayo by the impis of the savage Matabele.

This town had previously been one of the headquarters of the renegade Zulus, who, having broken away from their parent stock, trekked far into the northward, subdued the Makalakas, and became a terror to the country; but when reverses fell

been

Desperate scenes took place, which must go down to posterity in the history of that era during which South Africa was redeemed from the darkness of fetish

sway. Those men were of the heroic or- der, and in those days when the

cruel foe flung their compact masses against the thin line of defenders, each and every member of the little band fought with a valor that should win the Victoria Cross, remembering the innocent ones within the great shed, in Whose service they were ready to die.

It was the siege of Lucknow over again, Only instead of mutinous Se- poys, the hordes of idolatrous Mata- bele flung thelr columns time and again upon the hollow square, through which they could not force a passage.

Death reaped a rich harvest, for the defenders were well armed, and heaps of the warriors, decked in their fantastic War dress, lay in. spots where the terrible warfare had been most severe.

At last came succor, and never was the arrival of reinforcements more eagerly welcomed. No one heard the bagpipes in the distance as at Luck- now, Where the glorious old refrain “The. Campbells are Coming,’’ reach- ed the ears of the desperate defend- ers, reduced to the last extremity, and causing them to leap for the very madness af joy; but the crash of guns, the hearty English cheers, the shouts of savage dismay and the flight of the demoralized impis were dauite as effective as the weird notes of he Scottish pibroch in telling the weary defenders of Buluwayo that all was well,

Hastings

heard these things and

’ pondered.

Evidently he realized that the most remarkable events for which the close of the nincteenth century would be noted, were destined to be enacted on South African soil.

Here was the theatre around which mementous results must cluster, re- suits that interested the whole Eng- lish-speaking world.

Yes, of a certainty the day had come for Africa’s awakening, and the sleep of centuries was to be broke en. As in America, as in India, as in Egypt and elsewhere, the glory of this achievement must in a great measure fall to the Anglo-Saxon race. Colonial methods as a general thing, save under the British and French flags, are harsh and cruel.

It is true, as a recent writer has

said, ‘“‘The British do not hesitate to wage unprovoked wars of con- quest; but after they have obtained

possession of a country they treat their subjects kindiy. The natives of Natal, Zululand, Basutoland and oth- er regions in Soufh Africa are happy and contented. The natives of Swaziland sent a delegation to Eng- land to beg the Government to take them under its rule and protect them from the Boers. The Fellaheen of Egypt look upon the British as their

benefactors, their saviours. And so it is everywhere. The Englishman calls the black man a ‘nigger’

and regards him as his inferior; but he never forgets that the ‘nigger’ is, after all, a man, entitled to humane treatment. And so the subject races under British rule increase and multi- ply and thrive, and actually make some progress toward civilization.
