One of Britain's Most Gallant Soldiers Killed in Africa by the the Bite of a Mamba. -~ Perhaps the most deadly and aggressive of. all reptiles is the mamba, an extremely slender snake which is found all over ‘Africa. In color these venomous serpents are either black or green, and they attain to a great length, one ten feet long, however, being no larger than.a man’s wrist. It*was one of these terrible creatures that. killed the late (ol. Montgomery, of the Welsh regii776 THE aomacs FOURTII _ Forenoon.

Scott, of the Royal Army Medical corps, has just written an account of the affair, which is given verbatim: “On looking over my notes of the case,” he writes; “I find-we had crossed the Tugela river to the Zululand side. After luncheon Col: Montgomery and his adjutant (Capt. Reid) went out to shoot quail. When they were some distance from the camp they dismounted and threw the saddles over the ponies’ heads, ‘as is the custom in South Africa, and then went into some: long: grass.* Soon after Col. Montgomery. felt something prick hisdeg, whichshe took to be a thorn, but in a few seconds he felt a great shock to his system, and called out to his adjutant that he had been bitten by a snake, and that he was to ride into camp for me. As soon as Capt. Reid told me what had happened I turned my pony (1 was mounted at the Aime) toward the place indicated, and sy mery riding toward camp at a canter, ie at the time looked like a drunken “than on a horse, as he was swaying from side to side to such an-extent that 1 -momentarily thought he would fall off. When IE got to him I and others helped: him to dismount. His legs immediately collapsed, ‘the result of paralysis, by which it may be seen that he rode in by balance only. The injury was susstained at four p. m., and we helped him off his horse at 4:10 p:.m. Already he was pale, nervous, very sick (vomiting profusely), had cramps and a feeling that he*was going -to die.‘ Everything that medical skill could devise was done for him, but nothing was of any avail. Just ten hours after tthe accident he
‘was dead. The enormous strength of jaw possessed by the reptile is shown un a few moments I saw. Col. Montthrough a cloth colonjal gaiter, colonial: riding breeches and drawers. Col. ‘Montgomery was buried in Zululand at the mission station.” “ Causezand Maect. ; Money is the root of evil. i When) we've none to clink What a lot of wicked phrasez ‘ We are ne to think!When Gentus Gets a Show. “All great works are written by famous men between’ the ages of . 40 and 60.” “Yes; by that time their children are big ettough to. play out of doors.”— sari News.
