from the Washington Post.
The most persistent and unique nd
ventureis In tho national capital nro
the fakirs who haunt the clergy and
persons connected with philanthropic
work. They are frequent callers at all
pastoral residences in the cltv, a day
never passing; without two or more pre
senting themselves nt the door. Some
are well dressed and others are garbed
like the poor. They have various meth
ods of presenting their cause, but each
and all have tho same object to ob
tain money. Sometimes their stories
are almost ludicrous, but at other time
they are heartrending, and It Is almost
Impossible for a clergyman to decide
the merits of tho case.
One prominent divine said last week
that In nil his experience ho had never
met a stranger begging for help whoso
case, when Investigated, was found
worthy.
Tho Rev. Dr. McLeod, of the First
Presbyterian chinch, In conjunction
with four other leading clergymen, haa
an experience not long ago which was
as laughable as It was exasperating.
A womnn clnd In, deepest but shabby
mourning called ut the church olllce
shortly after noon and told a pitiful
tale of woe. She said that her only
daughter had died tho night before;
thnt she had formerly been a member
of his church, and her dying request,
was that Dr. McLeod should preach t
sermon at tho funeral, which would oc
cur the following morning at her resi
dence. She gave a number nnd street
in a somewhat distant locality.
The doctor at once consented to ofll
clate at the funeral, and expressel the
greatest sympathy for tho beienved
mother. The woman then began to
weep, nnd told Dr. McLeod that her
finances were In a straitened condition,
and that she lacked Just $'- of having
enough for her daughter's builnl ex
penses. The doctor had been Imposed
upon before, so he told the woman
that ho would go to her homo tho fol
lowing morning nnd bring the neco
snry funds to defray the expenses.
Thanking Dr. McLeod, tho woman too'.
her leave and proceeded to tho pas
toral residence of tho assistant rector
of Trinity church. Telling him the
same story, she succeeded In obtaining
$5 nnd the promise that the doctor
would ofllclate at the funeral.
This orlglnnl fakir then went to tho
residence of Dr. Flske, pastor of Gun
ton Temple Memorial church, to whom
she again repeated her story, and ob
tained a like rewatd. She sought two
other clergymen, on whose sympathies
she wot iced with the same tale, and
secuied from each $.' and the assur
ance that the ministers would pren.-h
her daughter's funeral sermon. To
each one she gave the same hour, namo
and address. The jesult was that tho
following morning five preachers, arm
ed with Uibles nnd hymn books, serious
' nnd sympathetic looks, appeared at 10
o'clock at the quiet home of a very
respectablo Irish family, nnd each one
announced thnt he had coino to con
duct the funernl of tho young jjlrl.
Tho Irish lady, thinking that soma on
had played a prueticil joke on licr,
promptly became incensed, nnd empha
sized the fact that there had not been
a death on that block for six months.
Several days ago a tall, foreign-looking
man visited sovernl prominent cler
gymen, to each of whom he handed
his card, on which was engraved "Rev.
Charles Mohammed." His card did not
state to which denomination he be
longed, consequently he told each min
ister that he was a member of his
church and a foreign missionary. To
some ho said ho needed funds to go to
New York, where he was scheduled to
deliver a lecture, anil to others ho
claimed his destination was Haltlmoro
for tho samo purpose, lis succeeded
In obtaining various sums of money,
until tlnnllv he reached ths Rev. Dr.
Flske. To him he showed his crodt n
tlals, which seemed to bo correct, nnd
furthermore ho claimed to bo a profes
sor In Princeton university. Ho show
ed a clipping from a Richmond news
paper, which stated that a Rev.
Charles Mohammed had been mistaken
for a negro who was wanted there for
Graphic Portrait of Him from tho
Pen of Julian Ralph.
From tlic London Dally Mall.
The 111 st time tho correspondents saw
him was at a rullway car window at
Moilder River. He sent for them, nnd
addressed them ns one who sneaks to
friends. It seemed to them thnt ho
lifted every disability and brushed
nway ovi-ry limitation which had ham
pered and almost crippled them In their
work up to that time. They were U
write what they pleased, he said, and
this was not to be censored. Only their
telegrams would bo scrutinized. They
were to go wherever ho went, wherever
they willed to go.
To mo his face suggests the front of
a granite mountain, seamed, lined, bat
tel ed by storm, strain and racking
change. It records acquaintance with
every trial to which mortals are put,
nil suffered In the solltudt of undi
vided responsibility. Care, worry, sick
ness, danger, uncenslng rellectlon, all
had left their marks there, yet all were
written across a gentle, sympathetic
countenance, never gay or merrv, yet
seldom stern, and wholly Ignorant of
passion. I have known many great
faces, but that of Lord Roberts Is a
face apart. I fancy that, in the minds
of their worshippers, some of the
soberer gods of the old mythologies had
faces like his.
He dresses In serge khaki, which,
plain as that always must be, he ren
ders the more plain by ridding It of all
orders and decorations. There arc men
on his staff there was even an Ameri
can newspaper reporter with one of tho
nrmles who wear a line and a half of
ribbons. Rut the chief -who Is entitled
to perhaps four lines, appears every
day, for every duty and function, with
a tunic as bare of decorations as that
of any civilian. He Is so neat and pre
cise in his dress thnt I suspect he
must have been a dandy in earlier life.
He Is quick and nervous In his move
ment, and his constant habit Is to
thrust either one or both hands under
his belt a practice which makes It
easy for artists to familiarize his figure
with the public. He Is instantaneous
nnd direct in conversation, and goes ns
straight to the point In view as a well
aimed bullet to a target.
I have noticed that when he meets
now people he ndvancea toward them
eagerly, listens Intently, and in three
minutes either engages the new ac
quaintance In earnest conversation or
has done with him with a decisive nod
of parting. With the army In South
Africa his headquarters forms a court
almost as if he were a part of tho
royalty he represents. You do not call
upon him. You sign your name In a
book, and ho sends for you later If he
wants to see you. It may be a duke
whom you find In tho salle of the
Residency as It was In my case an I
who offers tho register for you to sign.
The field marshal works continuously,
and to do so has to bo free from In
terruption: therefore, visitors meet him
only at luncheon or dinner. In Bloem
fonteln, where he wns living between
walls, his table was a small one, stand
ing a few feet from the head of the
large, long table at which sat his staff
his ponderous. Impressive staff of
distinguished men of the aristocracy.
You dined with "Bobs" in khaki, of
course, at his small table If you were
highly honored; or you may dine with
his staff, and be presented to him after
tho meal for a long or a brief Inter
view, ns he pleases. That Is precisely
tho amount and extent of state about
his surroundings. But all state va
Ishes when you touch the hand of "til's
little mn" nnd talk with him about
tho two subjects which engross him
the war around him and politics at
home. If you wonder that politics find
such spacious lodgment ns they do In
his mind, you have not remembered
how politics affected him In his career
as a general, hero In South Africa
when he could have prevented this wnr
by a vastly smaller one, In Kandahar,
In mnny fields. Lord Roberts never
smokes tobacco, nnd with drink he has
little to do. A glass of wine with two
of the three meals suffices for him. Ho
preaches temperance to his soldieis,
and they all know that ho shows no
patience with those who drink to
excess. He presides at meetings of
tho Army Temperance association and
extols sobriety, but, like all broad
minded men, he refrains from advo
cating tho Impossible one form of
which Is total abstinence. Ho has
novcr been known to use nn oath,
and, Indeed, there must be compara
tively few men whose religion Influ
ences them so deeply as does his In
ovcry affair in life. He never par
ades his piety, never forces It upon
those atound him. Yet on every Sun.
day slnei ho joined his army he has
attended divine service. Not a word
has he ever spoken to his stuff sug
gesting or ordering their presence, yet
he Is certain to nttend the weekly ser
vice nn example to tho army bo mod
estly and so persistently presented
that It cannot help but be powerful.
When he took tho Sacrament at Drcl
fontetn tho other day, In the face,
one might say, of tho whole army,
It was without a hint of the parading
of religion. All saw In It nn act Of
simple faith. .It Is almost as hard to
reconcile his gentleness and sympa
thy with the Arm, sometimes stern,
course which a general so supreme In
command, and at the head of so large

my back for sometime. After being
on my feet for fourteen or fifteen hours
the pain was so Intense that I could
scarcely bear it. 1 tried different reme

brought relief until I used Doan's Kid

time before I was entirely rid of the

nn aimy. must often have to follow.
I have orked many of his friends how
he can bo both sorts or man at once
how he can possess traits which we
Imagine must war with one another.
"He does possess them, thnt's all,"
Is the best answer that I got; "I don't
know how, but he does."
"He l all things to all men, In the
best sense of the phrase," said one
who knows him well. "He has the
royal gift of remembering everybody;
the humane quality of llawless tact;
the superior, almost superhuman gift
of Justice. Good men find a respon
sive chord In his nature, and those
who ore stern feel that he, too, Is
stern upon occasion."
He has complimented a "Tommy"
on hid aoldlerllness In such a way tit
to win the man's loyalty to the end
nnd surrender of his life, and on the
very samo day he has ordered homo
a general, knowing that the order car
ried disgrace of a man who meant
as well as himself, but had not tho
capacity to realize his ambition. His
army will do anything for him; march
longer, starve hnrder, go without 1
tents, blnnkets and ii.m more days
and weeks and die In greater mini- (
hers for him than for any other man
alive And they will do all theso
things willingly nnd gladly, where
other armies might protest ond grum
ble and go ahead with sullenness. He
can get more out of an army, from
tho Guards down to the roughest
scouting force (as he did between
Modeler river and Bloemfonteln) than
any Russian or German general coultl
have extorted with Iron nnd discipline"
and adamantine authority. It wns
the so-called "London pets" the
Guards who brake all Kjropean rec
ords In a three days' march Into the
Free State. Instead of grumbling,
they made It a matter for boasting.
Whenever other privates would damn
another leader, Roberts' men would
say simply: " 'Bobs' Knows what! 'e's
about: 'BobV will do the Job." It suf
fices the majority merely to sum up
Lord Roberts with this phrase: " Ti
I? a man." He can make no mistake
that his army will recognize. What
ever he orders or does Is regarded as
the rellectlon of superhuman inspira
tion.
Even If he falls, he is certain to bo
considered Infallible at the end. There
may have been more than one Well
ington at the head of Britain's armies
In the past, but there lias never been
a previous Roberts never In English
history has there been fcuch Idolatry,
or any such magnetic leader.
When ho viBlted M'odder river ho
found Lord Methuen established In
the hotel, and that general had been
at the pains to clear out a part of
the building and appoint It for the
field marshal's lodgings. But Lord
Roberts, thanking htm. remarked that
hn had ordered his tent to be sot on
the veldt, and that there he meant
to stay. When his nnny is in motion,
marching and fighting, he travels with
a covered wugon unci a tent, the first
being his house and the second his
workroom. The wagon is a light four
wheeleel contrivance whoso top is a
roomy and complete Inclosure and de
fence ngalnst rain and cold wind. On
the sldeboard is painted "F. M. Lord
Roberts," so that we may all know
It when It comes along.

Would Not Suffer So Again Por Fif
ty Times Its Price.
I awoke last night with severe
pains In my stomach. 1" never felt so
badly In nil my life. When I came
down to work this morning I felt so
weak I could hnrly work. I went to
Miller Si McCurdy's drug store nnd
they recommended Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
It worked like magic and one dose
fixed me all right. It certainly Is the
finest thing I over used for stomach
trouble. I shall not be without It In
my homo hereafter, for I should not
cure to endure the sufferings of last
night again for fifty times Its price.
