( "Two districts formerly in German East Africa, Ruanda and Urundi, were ceded to Belgium after the World war of 1914-18 under mandate from the League of Nations and are united administratively with the Congo," the bulletin points out. Defense Force of 13,000. "The colony has a defense force of about 13,000 native troops with 330 European officers and non-commissioned officers, including 4,400 territorial police. ' 'The Belgian Congo is a land of steaming jungles and broad, parklike plains, home of the gorilla, elephant, giraffe and zebra, teeming with more than 10,000,000 black natives, rich in ivory, gold, diamonds, copper, and radium. Situated almost in the center of the African continent, it spreads fan-like inland from the African west coast from a coastline only 25 miles long to a maximum north-and-south length of 1,200 miles in the interior. It is drained by the mighty Congo river, nearly 3,000 miles long. "The Congo began its existence 55 years ago as a sort of private empire administered by King Leopold II of Belgium, great uncle of the present King Leopold III, and some associates. Development of the Congo basin was envisioned by the king as a result of Henry M. Stanley's explorations in the region. In 1885 organization of the Congo Free State was recognized by the European powers and King Leopold became its sovereign. In 1908 the Congo was ceded to Belgium by King Leopold and is now governed by the Belgian parliament, though native cjhiefs are allowed considerable authority. Minerals Chief Wealth. "Chief wealth of the Congo is in minerals, which include gold, copper, diamonds, tin, cobalt, iron, and uranium. Its radium mines constitute one of the two great world sources of this fabulously valuable substance. "The colony producer rubber, palm oil, palm nuts, cotton, rice, coffee, cacao, copal gum, and sugar. Cattle thrive in the highlands where the tsetse fly is absent. The central zone of the Congo consists of alluvial plains, well-watered and some of them heavily forested, but the greatest area is covered by open park-like savannas. "Two large game refuges totaling 1,500,000 acres in extent, the Pare Leopold and Pare Albert, provide shelter for the gorilla, elephant, and other types of wild life where they can be studied by scientists under natural conditions and protected against extiriction. "The Congo river, draining most of the colony, is navigable for 95 miles from its mouth to Matadi. From there freight moves by rail past 250 miles eff rapids to Stanley pool, where the river again becomes navigable for more than 1,000 miles to Stanley falls. Above the falls there are 585 more miles of navigable water, and 6,279 miles of the Congo V tributaries talsd are navigable. "The Congo has a- population of 10,200,000 natives and 23,000 whites, including 3£0Q missionaries, according to latest available figures. There are about 1,800 miles of air lines, 3,000 miles of railroad, and 42,300 miles of highways." FOR SALE -- Six-room cottage on Waukegan street, McHenry. Reasonable price. Inquire of Walter J.

O. 8ULLIVAN DIES SATURDAY NIGHT JOB HUNTERS LAG&XNG 14 Cadtfs and Instructors Quickly Rescued. FOR RENT SARNEGAT, N. J. -- A tale of bravery and calm discipline among 14 Admiral Farragut Naval academy cadets while their training ship burned at sea was recounted recently by Commandant Herbert D. Hill of the academy. The youngsters quietly lined up while two instructors ordered them to don life preservers and leap singly into the Atlantic ocean. They gathered in a circle away from the blazing 60-foot former navy submarine chaser and awaited Harold E. Reice, 35 years old, of Toms River, secretary of'the academy and skipper, and .Francis Zeluca, 19, of Greenwich, Conn., counselor at the academy's summer camp and mate. Mr. Reice and Mr. Zeluca, last off the boat, suffered slight burns. Within five minutes after the 16 jumped from the burning training ship, a boat, the Lea, 'piloted and owned by Robert Wright of Seaside Heights, rescued them and took them to the Barnegat City coast guard station. Coast guardsmen went to the fire, three miles northeast of famed Barnegat light, but the training boat had burned to the water's edge and sunk. Coast guardsmen said the fire was caused by a backfire. Of Mr. Reice and Mr. Zeluca Commandant Hill had nothing but praise for their "exceptionally fine handling of the situation." For the 14 youths, his praise was mingled with pride. "They proved true to the spirit of the sailor," he said. "They carried out orders in accordance with naval training." After beating out a rapturous life for ninety-two years, the heart of Mrs. Virginia Nechas, who has been a resident of this vicinity for the past four months, ceased its thumping Saturday night, September 7. The lovely old lady had been making her home with her son, Dr. Edwin O. Sullivan, on the Fox river south of McHenry. The deceased was born In St. Anfcet, Quebec, Canada, on March 24, 1848, and at the age of eighteen Vras "married to Geremiah D. Sullivan. Ten children were born of this union, six of whom survive, as follows: Mrs. William VaUins and Mrs. George Morris of Bin^hamton, N. Y.; Patrick and Albert Sullivan of Minneapolis. Minn.; Eugene and Dr. Edwin O. Sullivan of McHenry. The family moved to the United States, settling at Minneapolis, In 1887. Geremiah died in 1914, Two years later his widow married Albert Nechas, who died only four months ago in Minneapolis, where his wife had made her home since coming from Canada. Her son brought her to McHenry following the death of his stepfather. Besides the above survivors, eight grandchildren and fifteen great-grandchildren survive. The burial was at Minneapolis Wednesday morning, following services in the French church in that city. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Sullivan and Dr. and Mrs. Edwin O. Sullivan left Tuesday to attend the funeral. COOKE FARM, LOCAL PMA CONTEST WINNER OPEN FOR INSPECTION WANTED WANTED--Experienced stenographer. Give qualifications and references.

County Clerk Henry P. Lyons was astonished at the number, and nature, of the excuses to avoid service, which pays $4 a day and transportation at 10 cents a mile. Here are a few of the alibis: I can't sit still for pain. I would be glad to serve except I work for a living. I have enough troubles of my own to decide. With a 60-acre farm, four cows, two horses, no car, no help, how would you like to serve as a juror? I have an exceptionally poor memory. It would be m waste of money to call me in a criminal case. The last times I have been called the attorney for the state has excused me without asking any questions. I am a night watchman, and could not be up all night and all day. One prospective Juror, under the heading "infirmities;? wrote: 4'good health." DEAD OB ALIVE ANIMALS *100 to $16.00 Cash Cows - Horses - Hogs No help needed for loading!

J.--Police from two cities used a 10-ton wrecking truck to rescue a three-year-old bull, owned by Adolph Bodnar, proprietor of a stock farm, from a tar pit into which the bull had fallen. The bull, which weighs 900 pounds, wandered away from the rest of its herd in the morning while grazing on the Kearny meadows and fell into a pit on Bergen avenue east of Schuyler avenue, which had been dug by Kearny authorities as a dump for excess tar, gravel and other road-building materials. The bull sank slowly into the tar, which had been softened by the heat of the last few days. Passersby heard the bull bellowing and called the Kearny police, but after an hour's work the bull had only sunk more deeply. By the time the Jersey City police arrived with emergency equipment nothing but the bull's head and part of his back could be seen above the tar. With the help of a steel cable, boom and winch on the 10-ton wrecking truck the bull was extricated after another hour, covered with tar and gravel. Mr. Bodnar, fearing that tar-solvent naphtha would do the bull more harm than the tar, decided that' (He bull nriirt ifearlhe tar until it wears off.
