"You'ie never light of a mornin' until you get the engire goln'." That was trio. Hector as a rule could do nothing until ho had a cig- arette.

BEADIJUARTEKS OF NILE AND THE REGION LAKE BARINGO. ABOUT British Explorer Traverses Teiii- tory Never Trodden uj a Wtite ITan In February. 1902, Major Powell- Cotton loft Mombasa, on the eastern coast of equatorial Africa, with an expedition of seventy-eight men to explore tho region about Lake Uar- ingo and tho country toward the headquarters of the Nile. A cousid- crablo portion of tho route had nev- er before been trodden by a wliito man; and further interest was added to tho trip by the hope that more specimens of the okapi. a new species of giraJTo-liko antelope discovered by Sir Harry .lohuston south of Lake Albert Nyanza, would bo obtained. This hope was not realizedf but Ma- jor Cotton's diary, which he wrote during his sixteen month's trip abounds with new and important dis- coveries of both scientific and general interest. The first tribes visited were the Kikuyus. Their villages are so clev- erly concealed in the dense vegeta- tion as to be easily pas.sed by unob- served. Tho onl.v entrance to them is by means ot a low tunnel through a stockade of growing thorn bushes. Tho hair of the chiefs is matted to- gether into curious shajics b.v moans of clay, and in order to prevent this decoration from running away ns mud when it rains, a little hood of monkey skin is placed over it. Near Lake Haringo the caravan was met by a party of native war- riors, carrying green boughs as tok- ens of [waee, who presented the cur- ious and simiowhat startling appear- ance of a thicket in motion. At Lake Haringo, Mr. Cobb, tho only other white man of the party, turn- ed back, and Major Cotton spent several months in exploring the country in various directions. 'Dur- ing one of these expeditions he came upon A PACK OF WILD DOGS, and succei>ded in shooting one of theui, a very unusual feat. Tho whole puck immediately turned and attacked him, and it was only by accurate and rapid shooting that he .saved hi.s life. What he describes as one of his narrowest escapes occur- red while elephant hunting in this region. "We heard elephants feeding in a thick bamboo clump," he says. "I took only one gun-bearer with me to work toward them, and I sivw a group of three or four, but as they wore all cows wo traced our steps without disturbing them. A little further on we could hear another beast feeding, ami. thinking it might he a bullâ€" for these often leed apart from tho cow.sâ€" wo picked our way along an old elephant path. "The fallen liumboos and the litter ot leaves on the ground made it dif- ficult to do this silently. The beast stoppetl feeding, there was a mo- ment's pause, and I could hear the crashing of tho bamboos as the ani- mal charged toward us, screaming loudly. It Was impossible to tell exactly the point where it would aji- pear, for. of course, tho dens** bam- boos completely hid it from vtow. It was equally hopeless to turn to run. for oven along the path we had come t'ro interlaced bamboos would have tripped one up at once, so, signing to the gun-bearer to stand sile:itl.v bohin-d me. I held my douhlc>-barreU>d cordite 600 in readiness. "As the elephant's head appeared through tho bamboos, almo.st facing me, with trunk ut>li>ted and ears .sticking straight out. I raised my rifle and FlKKl) HOTU HARUFUS in quick f.ucce.ssion . aiming through the trunk for the front.al shot. Im- mediately after 1 lurnml to lliv. trip- (H'd and measured my length on the ground, but had the satisfaction of hearing a mighty cr;vsh behind me as the elephant fell over on its side." While at Lake Harnigo a native genius was di.scovorc>d who had dreas*- od up his donkey with the horns and hid<i of on anteloi>e, nn<l was in tho habit of using it as a docoy for getting within bow shot ol the ante- loiH) herds. In the Kiraagar coimtry a siuglo specimen of the forest hog was ob- tained in the Man foix^ot. The country about Mount Klgc>n. where the caro dweller* live, was visitoil. Major Cotton found thc!»e rave houses no more than uauall.v dirty, but Sir Harry Johnston de- scribed them as exi-e.<5»ively filthy. •'They "^o swarm with flies and are ! o nol.somo from the ntrocioiis Wench any extensive examination of then was intolerable," Un the parched Kamopa platoau, north of Lake Baringo. tiK most in> torcstiiig portion of the Journey b» gan over country never before tr» versed by a white man. The partj soon found great dlfliculty in getting Water, and at one time was threaten- ed with death from thirst. One. o! tho native carriers in his delirium strayed away into tho bush and hii body Was found several days later. Part of the o(|uipmcnt of the expo dition consisted of a gramaphone with which a number of conccrti were given in the jungle. The na» ti\e8 were much impressed hy thii "talking horn," and many curioui and AMUSING incidp;nts occurred among tho audience. "Bant pieces did not apjical to them," hi s.iys; "but banjo duets or anythinj w.th the human voice, whistling, oi tho imitation of animals' cries evok- ed roars of laughter or approvinf gnints." Tho strange ideas of finery whicl the jungle people have wore well il- lustralerl in the motley crowds whlcl gathered before the gramopiiono tent. Iron-hookey finger rings, used foi toaring the enemies' flesh at clost quarteis, wcro much worn. Manj of tho chiefs had a piece of ele- phant's fat hanging on the nock. Aa this was melted by the boat a thin, grea.sy stream ran down over tint chest, a sign of wealth and high position. Tho curious clay head- drosses were usually numerous, a* well as strange skin decorations, aniong which may be mentioned i band of artificial pimples around tbi body and a coat of white paint-liki fluid over the entire skin. Some distance northwest of thi Tarash valley, aloi>g the foot of t range of hills, one of the most inter- esting "finds" of the expedition wi\« made, in the shape of an elephant's "dying ground." It is extremely rare even in the best elephant coun- try to find the skeletons of elephants which have died a natural death; and although native stories have been told of regular cemeteries to which tho bea.its resort when about to die, they are usually set down as fables. "In all my journeys," says Major Cotton," through the elephant coim- try. I do not think I have ever come across the skeleton ot one of these beasts for whose death the guides could not account, an-d on no oc- casion did I ever see two skeletons together. Here I was surprised to firKl the whole country side STUDDED WITH REMAINS. I thought at first that some fell dis- ease had attacked a vast herd, but on questioning my guide ho said: " "Oh, no; this is the place whera the elephants come to die. We often come here to pick up the ivory.' " In going through the Dotiingu coun- try the ex|X'ditiou was repeatedly at- tacked by tho natives, an>d had sev- eral narrow escapes; a num'ccr ol Major Cotton's followers were killed, but he finally succeeded in reaching Minule, one of tho Uganda govern- ment stations on tho Nile, on June 9, 1903. AVith the exception of comparative- ly small, isolated areas, similar to that traversed by Major Cotton, thu geographical exploration of Africa was completed in the last quarter ol tho nineteenth century and tho ra- mainii>g work is simply the filling iu of detail. There are still seA-eral sec- tions, such ns the great Congo for- est, about the natural history of which little is yet known. Fiu'ther exploration iu these areas may be expected to disclose otlier new discoveries as remarkable as that of tho okapi. but geographically Africa is completed. From tho out- lining of the coa.st line iu the fifteen- th century by the Portuguese until the middle of the last century the in- terior regions wero almost untouched by the white man, except for Mungo Park's travels in the Niger country. About this time (1850) a series of remarkable expeditions were inaugur- ated which have (inally resulted in the complete mapping of tho African continent. Livingstone. Burton. Spo'-<e. Grant. Baker.
