OLONEL VAL
ENTINE.a wor
thy but some
whit irascible
army officer,
just retired and
looking forward
to a life of well
England on liberal
glancing over the
parned ease in
half-pay, was
recently arrived periodicals in a shady
seat at the edge of the great military
esplanade at Madras, on a certain
blistering hot morning, when he
looked up over his spectacles at three
j figures that were approaching hita
I across the parade ground.
The approaching group consisted of
i two junior officers and a pale, intel
lectual-looking man, in the semi-civilian
or fatigue dress of the navy.
'"Ha:" thought Colonel Valentine.
"Beekford and Dashwood, eh? with
that ship surgeon, who is said to have
been a detective in his time."
Then a gentle, almost stealthy step
near at hand caused him to turn, and
his face colored angrily at what he
considered an intrusion.
"The devil!" exclaimed Colonel Val
entine, as the new-comer, one of the
mess stewards, a native Hindoo, came
along the shaded path and paused
obsequiously before him.
"Ah, no, sahib colonel," gently pro
tested the man; "not the devil, but
only poor Mahmndi, who has been so
miserably unfortunate as to offend
you, and would beg your excellency's
forgiveness."
The man carried an ordinary long
bamboo wand, or walking-stick, such
as is a common custom with the serv
ing men of the East, and which he
kept softly balancing to wmd fro as he
spoke.
But the officer, who had had some
words with this man some days pre
vious, and had, indeed, procured his
discharge from the mess service, was
little disposed to mercy just now.
"Out of my sight, dog!" he ex
claimed. "How dare you take up my
words in that way? Begone!"
Mahmudi made a trembling salaara,
though with a glint of the dark eyes
and a slight compression of the full,
wominish lips that should have
placed the other on his guard.
'"My situation is gone, my family in
distress," he expostulated, yet more
whiningly. "Am I to understand
that the sahib colonel refuses to
withdraw his displeasure from his
poor Mahmudi, and "
"Understand what you please, and
bpgone, or I'll help you to the: right
about!" roared the choleric old gen
tleman, and he grasped his heavy
Malacca stick menacingly. "A pretty
pass, truly, when an officer "
He was cut short by a repetition of
the servile salaam, even more abject
than before, but in the course of
which the tip of the bamboo wand,
seemingly by the most absolute inad
vertence, just touched the baud with
which the old officer grasped his
walking- stick.
The latter suddenly gave a
sharp cry, his face first purpling-,
then paling to ashy
whiteness, his eyes fairly popping out
of his head, as he pressed the hand
to his lips, and then fell back on the
rustic bench he had been so cosily oc
cupying. "The plague the mysterious stroke.
I am done for!" he gasped.
Then he fell off the btnch insensi
ble, while the three g-entlemen hur
ried up, with an astounded cry, and
the Hindoo clasped his hands to
gether over his wand, apparently in
even greater panic and consternation.
They lifted up the stricken man,
but a brief examination on the part
"I AM DONE FOR.
of Doctor Mardyn. the navy surgeon
referred to, was sufficient for him to
announce it as a case of instant death.
"Thunder and lightning! the ninth
victim," exclaimed Major Beekford.
"When and how is this mysterious
death-roll to end?"
"How did it happen, Mahmudi?" de
manded the surgeon, after a ghastly
pause. "Yon were speaking to him.
Had you said anything to excite or
annoy him?"
"Alas, no, sahibs!" repied the Hin
doo. "On the contrary, the 6ahib
colonel seemed to be in the best of
humors. Suddenly ah, how shall I
describe it? I was bowing before
him in my thankfulness for he had
just kindly said that I should be
taken back in the mess service when,
poufl be gave a cry of pain, ho
clutched at his heart, and all was
over."
"Never mind," interposed the
major; "run up to quarters and give
the alarm. Be sura to bring back
Doctor Pal-rave with you, to.j. "
For a little over two months now, a
horror of mystery and death had
hung over the garrison
Officer after officer had been mys
teriously and appallingly stricken
down by death in rapid succession.
As Beekford had declared, Colouel
Valentine made the ninth victim.
The symptoms were the same in
each and every case instantaneous
paralysis, with intense speechless
agony for the fleeting moment, then
death as by an apoplectic stroke of un
paralleled swiftness.
Medical authorities were equally at
fault.
Snake bite was suggested more than
anything else, but then the symptoms
were different in many particulars
from those attendant upon the bite of
the cobra, which is responsible for
nineteen-twentieths of the fatalities
from this cause in India.
Moreover, why should a commis
sioned officer have been the victim in
every instance never once a private
soldier or any one in comparatively
humble employment about the poist?
Thus an element of private malice
or vensreanoe seemed to enter into the
mystery.
Doctor Mardyn, who, as the colonel
said, had once been a professional de
tective, took a great interest in the
mysterious deaths. He found that
there was one man who had been in
the immediate vicinity of each of the
successive victims, and this man was
the Hindoo, Mahmudi.
The man had borne a good reputa
tion at Madras, but upon making in
quiries, the doctor discovered that
along the coast, where he was em
ployed before coming to Madras, he
had the reputation of being vindictive
and remorselessly revengeful to the
last degree, although always under
the cloak of a servile and treacherous
amiability.
Moreover the Hindoo had lived long
in Sumatra, where he was associated
as a boy with the terrible thugs.
After the colonel's funeral, Mardyn
was one of a group of officers who
were discussing the last mournful
event in the mess room, when Mah
mudi who had again been taken into
the service passed with his accus
tomed salaam, and carrying the in
evitable bamboo wand.
An idea suddenly occurred to Mar
dyn. "Here, Mahmudi A word with you,
my man!" he called out. "Bet me
look at that staff of yours a moment."
The man looked startled, but (speed
ily recovered his 6elf-possession,
though instead of advancing he drew
back.
"This, shaib," he murmured, hold
ing up the wand. "A simple, inof
fensive reed that is all."
Aiive it to me, I say!" cried Mardyn
sternly enough now, and with a sig
nificant vehemence that at once
aroused the interest of his com
panions. "A simple reed, yes; but
why has it always been your com
panion just prior to each of these
mysterious deaths with which your
presence or proximity has invariably
been associated? That is what I want
to know. Let me examine the staff,
I say!"
But at this juncture the Hindoo, to
the surprise of everybody, suddenly
took to his heels, with a terrified cry.
The young surgeon, however, was
after him in an instant.
The Hindoo was overtaken; there
was a briefslfetruggle for the posses
sion of the stall, and then to the gen
eral amazement, Mahmudi uttered a
shrill scream, and fell as if shot.
"It is fate!" he gasped, more com
posedly, as they surrounded him.
"Accursed sahibs! yes, I was the mur
derer of one and all of them, and I
glory in the record."
He then stiffened oat, and instantly
expired.
A cry of horror then arose, as a lit
tle serpent was perceived darting its
ugly head out of the wand which the
naval surg-eon carefully held in his
hand.
Doctor Palgrave, the post surgeon,
assisted Mardyn in ths examination
of the reptile that followed, and then
1, ... n 4-1, & ..... . I .. .. .. j 1 1
I- ' I UIJOICIJI - i Wild DUWCD91TD lULUll'
ties was solved at last.
The serpent was a specimen of the
echys carinata, which is never more
than a few inches long, and is so hor
ribly venomous that its bite is capa
ble of causing death in a few seconds.
The murderous Hindoo had only re
vived an ancient custom among -Indian
criminals by confining it in the
hollow of his bamboo wand, so that
its head just barely protruded at the"
open end.
Then the merest touch of his unsus
pecting enemy or object of his resent
ment with the tip of the innocent
looking but diabolical weapon would
cause the snake to plunge its fan-s
into the defenseless flesh, and death
ensued with the certainty almost the
suddenness of tha lightning stroke.
It was fortunate for the clever sur
geon that, in the struggle for the
bamboo wand, the horrible reptile did
not bite him instead of the murderous
Hindoo.

Physicians in Italy are under pub

are over here. Not long &go a
physician in Rome was at a theater,
when' some one sent in a call for him
to come out at once and attend a case
in which there were symptoms of
cholera. The doctor refused to leave
the theater, and as a result he was
arrested the next day and brought
into court, where, besides receiving a
most scathing rebuke for his conduct
from the judge, he was heavily fine.!
and suspended for three months from
the privilege of practicing his pro-ftiSbioa.
