GENTLEMEN IN AFRICA.
Chiefs Who Are Distinguished for Tao
.apd Pleasing Conduct.


and Pleasing Conduct.
i'm Livingstone travels he is contin-
ually referring'to the dusky females of
Africa as ladies, but it is very seldom
that explorers have occasion to apply
the word gentlemen to the men they
meet. Among the great tribes north
of Victoria NYanza, however, are few
Pasha, Stanley and q few other white
men think the word fifty applies.
Baker said. for instance, that Kata-:
grua was the only gentleman he met
at the big King Kabrega's count, and
Emin Pasha is equally mplimentary.
He says that while he was in the So
ciety OF Katagrua that chief never once
asked his guest for a present, and he
received very politely and with every
appearance of pleasure the few insig-
nifcant presents the white man was
able to give him.
Before Emin Pasha met this gentle
manly person he visited Chief Anfni,
with whom he became very friendly.
and whom be described as 1.-THE only
negro gentleman" he had met il four
years wanderings in Africa. Antini
lis one of the chiefs under King Kabre-
ga, and he rules district in Unzoro.
DIR. Emin describes this remarkable
person as a portly, well-dressed
man of middle age. who is
possessed of Unborn tact, sever asks
for presents, and is not inquisitive about
the private affairs of his guests Since
the Arabs began trading in his country
Anfini has been able to procure many
articles OF European manufacture. DIR.
Emin says that Anfni is the only negro
Prince he has met to whom clothing and
whatever other civilized appliances
havefound their way to his country haqe
become indispensable, He dresses in
English flannels and is scrupulously
clean. He is the only native In the
central regions of the dark continent
who habitually uses plates and metal
spoons at his meals. When DR.. Emin
was his guest, bananas and other food
were passed around on China dishes.
His people never presume to appear in
public in a nude condition, but all are
decently wrapped in skins and bark
clothing.
Both Stanley and Emin Pasha spoke
highly of the personal qualities of King
Mtesa's Katikiro or Prime Minister.
DR.. Emin says he ''must be placed
