IS STANLEY ALIVE?

Latest news from Zanzibar and the
Congo country brings no information of
Henry Stanley, and grave fears are ex-
pressed that he has succumbed to the
climate or been murdered by his follow
ers or overcome by the savage tribes of
interior Africa.
1t is now little more than year since
Stanley left civilization al the head of a
strong expedition to carry relief to Emin
Bey. For time he was heard from,
and it was learned that he had encounter
ed bad weather and hostile tribes, but
that he had overcome all obstacles and
was making steady progress. Last fall
the Congo state fitted out an expedition
to carry supplies to Stanley, and placed
it under charge of Captain De Velde, an
experienced explorer and the friend of
Stanley. This expedition has now fail
ed, De Velde having died at Stanley
Pool, which point he reached January
10, and if Stanley is yet alive he is left
wholly to his own resources.
In this case it is feared that no news Is
bad news. If alive it Is believed that
Stanley would have found some way to
communicate with the outside world.
Still, those who know the intrepid man
best have most hope for his safety. Ac-
climated, SO far as it is possible for
white man to be; understanding the
treatment of diseases Indigenous to the
wilds of Africa, as well as to the charac-
teristics of the savage tribes who in
habit them, there is a basis for their con-
fidence which only positive information
of disaster will destroy. Stanley may
have died; that is the fate of all men.
But he has not been turned back or his
command slaughtered. He was too
skilled soldier in African warfare, too
well equipped to meet emergencies, for
that
