to the Lualaba and was still In the great
valley which he had followed over eight degrees

mighty Luaaba again widened into large lake

to proceed further, and with but six or eight
months work only wanting to solve the mystery
OF the grand river. whose bends and sweeps he
had followed for seven hundred miles, he was
obliged to return to UjUi. The lake he had heard
OF he was obliged to dot down on his chart as

the flow Of the rivers from twelve degrees to four

his ship yard, was building two scows for
Mr.. d. Schultz, the successful harbor con-
tractor. One of them is rapidly approach
ing completion, and the material for the
other is arriving from Corners Point.
They are each 20 feet long by 90 feet wide,
and will carry 20 cords of stone-or 12o
tons--at depth Of 3 feet. Mr.. Schultz
already owns two OF the largest scows on
the lake, but he finds it necessary to have
two more, to serve his powerful tug Dan
forth.
