MONDAY, OCTOBER 2b, instructive Address on “India” to School Children by an Englishman Mr. H. Palmer, Who Lived for Five Years in India, an Inter esting Talker, Spoke on Subject That is Particularly In teresting at the Present Time. Th.# children of the Houghton Grant- B>ar acfroel were recently given a very flno leoticm on ' India." by Mr. H. Pal trier. Irfeo la a native-born Englishman and who spent five years in India. He is thoroughly acquainted with the cus toms and modes of living of the people of India and his address, which is re produced below, is exceptionally in -1 structive and interesting on its sub ject, which, at the present time, is im portant from the fact that England has already drawn on her forces from'ln dia, and these are now fighting with the Allies in France. After delivering the address Mr. Pal mer exhibited one of the odd-looking weapons the Indian soldiers used in time of war. After telling briefly of the govern ment of India, etc., Mr. Palmer said: "The relatives of India are many of them very handsome and striking looking, having fine features and the woman are often beautiful though dark skinned. They have many re ligions, the chief ones being those of the Mahormmedans and the Hindus. The Hindu religion consists of many classes or castes of which the Brah ! min is the highest. They are chiefly vegetarians and a Brahmin might be 1 a beggar begging in the street and yet he considers he is doing the others an honor when he accepts their pence and he would not sit down at a meal with even a rich rajali if he were not of his caste. The sikhs are very particu lar that no shadow from other people shall fall on their food and will throw it away if by any chance this happens. The climate is very varied, the plains very hot especially during the summer but the hills have a delightful climate, and there are many towns in the va rious mountains 6 to S.OOO feet high such as Simla Darjeeling, Mussouri and Otacamind, etc., which are much resorted to by the white population during the hot weather on the plains and are called Hill Stations. When War Was Declared. When war was declared between England and Germany, Indian was one of the first to come forward with of fers to help of every kind, including troops, money, etc. One Rajah of fered everything he possessed even to his private jewels and another wired to His Majesty. King George, “What orders from His Majesty for me and my men?” When it was known that I-ord Kitchener had accepted some of these offers ttie news was received with great enthusiasm in England. It is not the first time that the Indian army has taken part in Great Rritain's quarrels outside the bounds of the In dian Empire. Indian bayonets have flashed in the fierce sun of Egypt and the Sudan and in the waterless deserts of Somaliland, in the dark forest of Uganda and in the mountain snows of Tibet, in the inhospitable regions of Afghanistan and on the desolate shores of the Persian Gulf and in China but never -before have they been levelled against Europeans. For the first time in history Indian soldiers are to fight against white men. The Turcos and the Spahis of Algeria have already crossed swords with the Germans and our Indian soldiers would have been justly disappointed if they had not been allowed to do so too. Army's Strength. Most people have but little idea of the great war weapon which we pos sess in our native Indian army. Its actual strength on the first of April, 1912, which I quote from an English paper called “The War" was as fol- Reproduction of the Crucifixion Wrought by Convict in a Bottle A negro named Jim Bussey, who is at present anti in fact at all times on the chain gang, being what one might call a chronic convict, has fashioned and made with his hands a curious and interesting work of art, on which he has worked in his spare time, in Sundays and rainy days, for heaven only knows how long. It is one of those mystifying and never fading •ources of wonder constructed and put together in a bottle, for which prison ers seem to have a particular lean ing. The endless hours that the out side world waste in what is known as the exercise of liberty, prisoners often utilize in making intricate and delicate things in bottles. The flight of time is nothing to them. It is a negligible quantity. And they are ca pable of feats of patience and pains taking which wquld stagger the imag ination of the most industrious person in the world who is free. There aro recorded instances of men with life time sentences who have vameil the rats which came into their cells and trained hem to do all sorts of tricks. One prisoner had a small company of rats which he taught to drill like sol diers, vlth miniature muskets and swords which he made out of the bones left from his Sunday dinners. But this Is off the point. Jim Bus sey has achieved a feat which has ru excited the wonder of the authorities that his masterpiece will be exhibited at the negro fair. Inside a gallon vinegar bottle he has set up a miniature reproduction of The Crucifixion. The whole is carven out of wood nnd consists of a platform which occupies the bottom of the bottle, on which stand three er'sses. The Inrgest cross Is about six inches high, with a cross piece of about two and three-quarter incher, carefully mortised, glued and nailed to It. The other two crosses are an Inch lower. On these are crucified three 1 tie figures, ‘-ach about two and a half Inches long, with their hinds and feet nailed to the cross. There arms had to be made with shoulder sockets, so that they might p,ss through the three-quarter Inch neck of the bottle. On the platform at the foot of the cross stand or knee! eight little figures representing sol diers and angels. The angel* have purple robes and spreading golden wings, glided heave i knows how or by what means. Jim Bussey never asked or received any help whatsoever In the construction of this strange little group. It seems tj have been a matter of pride with him to make It entirely without outside aid. by his own cunning and Ingenuity and with his own old pocket knife. Finally, the bottle contains a atoppe.’ with a crosswise peg of wood driven through .t where the bottle opens out below the neck, so that the stopper can never be removed except by break ing the bottle. Having completed his labors, Jim Artillery 10,000 officers, N.C.Os & men. Sappers (engineers) & miners 5,180 Cavalary 24,550 Infantry 120,675 Making a total 160.760 without count ing the Imperial Service Corps of 22,- To continue quoting from this paper, it says: During the twenty years which have elapsed since 18S5 the army has wit nessed many reforms and augmenta tions, due chiefly to preparations for resisting the Russian menace. Un warlike men have been weeded from the ranks and replaced by those of a more virile stock, “class" companies and regiments, consisting of men of tlie same caste or creed, have been formed, great attention has been paid to training, supply and transport have been Improved, and the pay and allow ances of the troops have been raised. Our native troops are recruited from fcvery warlike class in the peninsula, and, as may be imagined, a great va riety of races are found in the ranks. The little swarthy mountaineers of Nepal known as Ghurkas, beloved of our Highlanders whose pibrqchs they borrow, and the Sikhs whom Ranjit Singh “the lion of the Punjab” made the terror of India, are organized in “class” regiments. There are Rajput regiments recruited from both Oudh apd the United Provinces; Jats, Do gras, Mahrattas, descended from the old predatory hordes of the blood thirsty Sivjai; Pathans of the north west frontier devoted to fierce gueril la fighting from the cradle, Heluchis, Hazaras, and Mohammedans from all parts of India. Most of the native of ficers rise from the ranks, and in many of the cavalry regiments the men find their own horses. It is from men of fighting races that Dord Kitch ener has made his choice of troops to uphold the Union Jack on French bat tle-fields. British officers attached to the native army are always enthu siastic about their commands, and have not the shadow of a doubt that they will proye themselves worthy com rades to the British heroes of Mons and Tornai. Little But Sturdy. Now I will give you a little descrip tion of the Gurkhas or the Highland ers of India as they are sometimes called. They are little men but sturdy. Their homes are amongst the mountains of Nepal in the Himalaya mountains and therefore they can climb like wildcats. At first the English tried to make them use only the rifle and the bayonet but this was found to be a mistake so they were air lowed to keep their beloved Kukri (which I will shew you presently) as well as the rifle. They are crack shots and have absolutely no fear of anything. They have a partiality for our kilted corps and very firm friend ships, have been established between the Gurkha Rifles and the Seaforth and Gordon Highlanders and other kindred regiments. The Gurkhas have always given much attention to military work and they are born soldiers. There are 50,- 000 of them in Nepal, besides the regi ments in the Indian Army which num ber 20,000. They are the best fight ing material in the world and their courage and loyalty are known every where. The Sikhs and Pathans on the other hand are big men, nearly all over six feet. They are also good fighters ano lo not fear death. seems to have lost interest in the fin ished work, and says he would be glad to sell it if he could get a few dollars for it. It will be on exhibition at the negro fair. HOTEL ARRIVALS Hofbrau Hotel. —G. M. Luck, Mary land; J. P. Queen, Columbia, S. C.; T. J. Mullen, New York; F. 8. Hatt, North Carolina; R. O.

MUNDY DIED ON YESTERDAY Young Man of Sterling Char acter Passed Away After Long Illness. Was Son or Or dinary and Mrs. P. B. Mundy. In the death of Mr. John E. Mundy at his home six miles from, Grovetown yesterday afternoon Columbia county loses one of its most sterling young men. Mr. Mundy was 27 years of age, a native of Columbia county and the youngest child of Ordinary and Mrs. P. B. Mundy. He was a young man of the very highest character, a strong personality and an ability to make friends and keep them. His death will bring sorrow to a large circle of relatives and friends. The funeral services were held at Grovetown this afternoon and the in terment was in the Grovetown ceme tery. Hundreds of friends gathered from all over Columbia, from Rich mond and from other counties to pay a last tribute to the young man whose unfailing courage through years of ill health was the admiration of all who knew him. A graduate of Hephzibah High school and a student for two years at Mercer University, Mr. Mundy was well equipped for a most useful career. However, he was attacked by an ill ness which has baffled the' greatest Physicians of all time. He made a game fight against the dreaded dis ease throughout and never gave up. He had spent several years in western Texas and Arizona and last spring came home to spend the summer. He had planned to return to the West early in November, but two weeks ago he suffered a severe atack which put him in bed. He seemed to rally, but it was not to be permanent and Sunday afternoon the end came. He Is survived by devoted parents, a brother, Mr. H. B. Mundy, and two sis ters, Mrs. R. W. Thiot, of Newbern, N. C., and Mrs. G. V. Baxley, of Grove town. Mr. W. W. Hamilton, of Qrove town is an uncle. The deceased was a young man of noble Impulses, unselfish, kind and thoughtful of others. His considera tion for his mother was a chief char acteristic. Never a week went by when he was in the great Wild West that he did not write to his mother and his principal thought was to give her as little worry as possible over his condition. The community and section In whloh he lived suffers a great loss In the death of John Mundy. MAN HURT BY JUMPING FROM MOVING TROLLEY Mr. J. S.
