Cecil Rhodes), who was wounded during the famous charge of the 21st Lancers. The fol- lowing are extracts from the ac- count: Dwarfed as the enemy undoubtedly 1 were by. the size of the immense plain, ' they nevertheless looked an enormous 1 mass of men. They were advancing in 1 three lines covering a front of at I least 2 1-2 miles, one mass of waving banners, with their cavalry on both flanks, but in no great numbers. The Sirdar and his staff came up to the plateau just below us, had along look at the advancing force, and then galloped back to camp. We were in heliographic communication with the 21st Lancers in the plain below us. They helioed up, “Dervish force ad- vancing very rapidly; estimate num- bers at least 80,000 men." This was flashed back to the Sirdar, who had reached camp. It was auseful piece of work; the Sirdar, back in camp and out off by the hill we were on from‘ seeing anything of the advancing force, was kept acquainted with all its move- ments by heliograph.

We heard afterwards that the enemy had thoroughly reconnoitred our posi- tion in the night, and the Khalifa's orders were to attack our front and flanks simultaneously. The attacks on our front and left front were magnifi- cently delivered. but the Egyptian cavalry, who were on our right, drew off the whole force who were intended for attacking our right, and for a time kept them fully employed. This force consisting of fully 10,000 men, was under the command of the lKhalifa's son, with agreen flag, and: during the second phase of the battle it delivered the furious onslaught on Gen. Macdonald's right and rear. l THEY WERE BRAVE MEN Meanwhile the dervish attacks on our front and left flank had fully de- veloped. The huge force. that looked at a distance of 2,000 yards as if they were going to cross our front, brought up their left shoulders and charged straight down on the front face of our position. The dervmh charge at Abu Klea was certainly magnificent, but there the ground favored them. being undulating and bush ; the distance they had to cross was not nearly so great, and the fire brought to hear on them could not for one moment IONDON TIMES CORRESPON- DENT AT THE FRONT. now ponrmc ind) the 'qub w; .' camp An Arab Stecd's mind m Vanni-lied . flanks “all"!

It was this episode that drew from the lips ot that most charming gentleman. Count Calderari, Italian military attache. the remark, “ What a magnificent sight, but I am sorry for those brave men." In the meantime the furious onslaught on the left face had met with the same fate. The der- vish force had swarmed round both sides of the conical hill, Snrgham, away to our left front. and had been met with the same irresistible tire. NEVER WOULD RUN AWAY I never saw the dervishes attempt to run away; they simply came on and were killed. These two forces which had delivered the first attack against our front and left, were thus, in my opinion. practically annihilated, and very few men of this force can have rejoined the Khalifa, where he was waiting with a large reserve be- hind the hill Surgham. In onr z_ariba u.

The octopus had an oval 'body. and was provided with an. extra- ordinary number of tentacles â€" six very large ones and many smaller ones of varying sizes.
