it, comprising about five hundred men in al,

if the trees were Ike temples, the grass was
like trees; for we are told of plains on when
the grass was II feet high, with stalks OF cor

Everywhere that Livingstone had been ne
was well and tavorably remembered. Inc
Arabs showed great respect to his memory
and near the west coast the fact that he rode
on an OK had made lasting impression on
the people.
One of the most curious relics Of the great
explorer recovered by Lieut.. Cameron is the
chronometer which Livingstone playtuIly
called his dead chronometer, because, al
though il ran perfectly for three hours aud
halt day, it would run no more. This pc
cuharity of the instrument was verified by
Lieut.. Cameron, who used the same chronome

The African Exploration.

Lieut. Cameron, a late African explorer
gave the following interesting and somewhat
amusing report before the Royal Geographi.
cal Society, Of the people of Uguhha, in
Africa:
lie said they were distinguished by the
peculiar and tasteful manner in which they
dress their hair, and by the elaborate tatooing
on the wOmen's stomaChs Their clothing
then appeared TO him remarkable, but, com.
pared with what he saw further on, was
ample.
In another tribe the women arranged their
HAIR in a most extraordinary manner, with
head.drcsses looking like an old-fashioncc
bonnet with the back out and long ringlets
hanging over the neck. THIS was in dis.
trict west of the great Tanganyika lake and
where the expedition first encountered hos
Utilities from the natives. The leather coat
which Lieut.. Cameron wore saved him from
being wounded by the arrows which were
suddenly shOwered upon them as they were
,raverslng n strip of jungle. Some counter
demonstration was necessary, but the ex-
plorer was unwilling TO use firearms He
had recourse to the good old English weap'
ons employed in the manly art Of selfde
tense. Il ran this man down." ne says, land

The interesting letter on the operation Oh
free trade in Belgium, which we copy from
the Public of last Thursday, furnishes, with It's
accompanying tables, many arguments when
no protectICnist can retue The economist
who sees threatening evil in every dollar
worth of raw material or manufactured com,
modify which enters country will be puzzled
to explain the evil aspect of system which,
with only nominal restrictions on foreign
trade, has given to Belgium her present pros
perity; and he will remain silent when ask,
ed why. in this country, with furnaces ana
mills ready for employment, with cotton ana
iron and coal at our own doors, his 0Oasle'l
protection has not prevented the commercial
ethargy which for three years has been max
ing our manufacturers poorer, and has com,
pelled labor to starve in idleness. Some OF
the figures in the tables referred 20 are worthy
of special examination. In 1850 under a
protective system, Belgium imported only
6l5 600 francs worth of iron; in 1871, with a
practically free trade, her iron importation
amounted 20 % 1886, 900 francs, which, from a
protectionlsts view, should have paralyzed
her entire iron industry. But what in reality
was the result? Why, her expectation OF
iron, wrought, drawn and made into sheets
by Belgian workmen, which under the tarlif
of 1850 amounted to only 1895, GOO francs, in
creased in 1871 to As, 494 900 francs; and the
value of machinery exported, which in lSoO
was enly 1885 900 francs, in 1871 was "a
OO4 900 francs. In 1850 Belgium imported
only 1884 900 francs worth OF wool; with
the burden of the duty removed she, in 1871,
imported l41, 15l 900 francs worth Instead
of crlppling the wooden industry, however,
free trade increased her woollen exports from
l,Gl4OOO francs worth in 1850 to ll,659,OoO
francs worth in 1871. The increase in the
value of butter, grain and vegetables import
ed under the free trade system is also very
important as showing how that system IN.
creases the working force of country, and
renders the working classes better able TO
supply their bodily wants. This increase
was as follows, the values being expressed in
francs:

Mr.. Wander Maeren's tables do not show
Just what proportion of Beigiums eNpor'a'
tons are manufactured articles, but II Is
known that the proportion IS very large. On
the contrary, a calculation made recently by
a writer in the World showed that in 1919
only 70 per centum of the exports OF the
United States, notwithstanding our natural
facilities for manufacturing and the acknowl.
edged skill CT our worknen, consisted Of
manufactured articles; and, moreover, that
10 per ceutum represented only two per cent
um of the articles manufactured for use in
that year.
Is il any wonder that our mills are closing

Ancient Mete OrOlogy,

Meteorology, instead of being modern
science had its origin coeval with the race
In the earliest ages 1t was surrounded win
the rites of pagan superstition, yet II aggre-
gated to itself fact after tact as II came down
the centuries until it has finally secured a
public recognition. The Egyptians, the Chal.
deans, the Hebrews, TIE Greeks, the Romans,
all have cast in their mites until the signs and
wonders of the heavens have cryStalized into
a science with fixed and abiding principles.
Job, that dignitied old Arab Sheik who has
lett such record or prosperity and disaster,
of wisdom and of splendid faith, was not only
an astronomer but meteorologlst. The Bible
in its illusions TO natural phenomena is re-
markable for its scientific accuracy, no mean
argument in favor of its inspiration.

the Bible has introduced section on Meteor

at Bismarck from Fort Buford last night.
He fails to confirm the squaw reports of
the recent battle between The Indians and
Tcrry's forces. Scouts from Terry's col

day evening. The courier who arrived at
supply depot, at the mouth of the Rose
Bud, the 18th inst, reports that Terry's
command met the head Of Crooks COM
ma1d early on the 15h. Crooks men were
following alarge Indian trail in the direction
OF Powder river. After a short consulta-
ton of Gems. Terry and Crook the COM
mands were united and proceeded on the
trail. Crook was following. The fifth in
fantry was detached from Terry's column
and ordered back to the stockade to get
1000 rations and take the steamer Far West
and patrol the Yellowstone and ascertain
whether the Indians had crossed the river
or not. If not to prevent them. In the
meantime Terry will come down en- them
with the combined command and force a
battle if the Indians have not crossed the
