Hlenry Duveyrier, once a celehrated iFrenchi xplorer, walked into tho edge of a forest T. near Sevras on April 25 anmi with a revolver blew out bis brains. It was the melancholy - endof acareer that had dawned briglitly. Duveyrier accomplished brilliant things T: while a very young man, and wlien ho was 25 years of age his namne was known to geog- aphers throughout the world. Rie was M only 52 years of age when hae endcd bis life oe tragically. No other iiian at se early an T. .ge, except Joseph Thomeson, ever accom- plislied seuranch in African exploration asT Duveyrier. Ho was only 19 years old wheu, q n 1860, he penetrated the hostile daseri south of Algeria, going where no other explorer ~ had vontured. Aithougli so young lie was veli equipped for scientific exploration. Ho 'T vas an exact observer, had advanced at- aînments in botany and geology, and pus- Tj sessed a talent for languages which onabled hirm in a short time to hold easy intercourso with ahl the tribes hie met.A It was the time when France, baving con- quered Alveria wvas endeavoring te enter unto relations with the people of the Sahara, and even with the treacherous Touaregs. F Marshal Randon had e8tablished the iflueuca of France at Wargla, southA of Algeria, and Capt. Bonnemain had gone 'T .s far soulli as Gliadamos. It was desired to pnsh the Frenchi influence furthor seuntir teGlat and other cases along the principal trade route leading to the Soud an. Then Duveyrier entered the field. Hie had been an enthusiastic student of the travels of Richard- son, Donham, Clapperton, Lyon, and others. E le had derivefi much inspiration and in- struction by personal intarcourse in bondon s'îth the, greatest of all explorers of the Sahiara and Soudan, Dr. Barths. Su in bis- L9th year lie made bis first joumney irrom Laghouat far soath Ilirougli the desert sands te El Golea,,and boforo many months the .aarned world was giving mucli atten Lion to the success of the audacious young travel- oer, who, though lie liad bean imprisuîîed in El Golea and menaced with daatli relurned saiely Io civilization. Duveyrier thon started on the more diffi- mîlt task of exploring the southeru part of Tunis and the country furîher soulli. He made bis way 600 miles into the desert to tbe .Asgar district, of which Ghat la the ainst important oasis. The success of the young man. is "Exploration du Sahara" testifies, te tha thorougli compelency of the bands into which the investigation of that part ni the Sahara had been intrusted. The7 Volume was interestinig to geographers, bis- spoak to-day of the higli scientific v alne of Duvoyrior's work.

A letter bas recently been found iromn Si Othman, the Touareg guide of Duveyrier, in which lie said that the only criticisni lie conld make on the young pian was lis reckless courage. "We know nul how," lie said, "te rostrain this fearless felloW" The treaties that France madeafater the returu of Duveyrier witli the peuple of Oha- dames and Asgaz were the direct resuits of the preliminary work that the yonng ex- plre ad doue. Hoe had spent thraeeyears ex.oig desertL ragions and extending. Frenchi influence toward the Sontuih. Ail that France had to do was to go on and per- fect and extend lais work. That was France's grand opportunity te advapce te Lake Tchad; but, after ail, nothing: was ever dune although for a year or su the Frenchi lalked of the great projects they were about to carry ont lu the Sahara. Duveyrier returned hume nearly dead fromnthe privations and faiuen bis long wanderings. , He was atakd by a serions fever, whicb nearly cost hlm bis hife. Hae was neyer fully him- self again. The disease lef t hîs mind a lithoe îdarkened by melancholy abat clung te him. Having sapped the strength ni bis yonth hie was neyer able te carry out bis projects for future exploratiuns. That was the great cross lie liad to bear. Hec urged with the utmust earuestness that France should establiali lier power in the Sabara, and aI- Ibougli lie was listened to wsth attention and respect noue of bis F.uggostiuns was ever carried ont. Duveyrier was the first to, tell thie world about the new sect of thee El Senoussi, the so-called Mobammedan re- formers who for years have beeu calling lapon Islam le roturn te the simplicity of the Mohammedan faithand wagarelentlessofwar alika un the Christians and the Turks, who, lhey say, have degraded the Mohaî-nmedan religion, In 1884 France selected Duveyrier tu carry ont a work oi scientifle exploration lu Murocco, but bis bealîli forbade him tu assume the trust. Ho publislsed, in. that year a list of the altitudes, latitudes, and longitudes of 1,600 places in Africa. With- in the lasI few years lie liad been heard of very raraly lu geographical circles. Ho re- garded himsclf as forgotten by the world and lielipved that his explorations were failures because France did not tako advan- tago of tliem te extend lber influence acros tha Sahara.
