IhE DARK COMMENT.
The War on the Germans by Coast Ma
tiyes Ia East Anrca.

The War on the Germans by Coast Ma
tives la East Aonca.
The Germans have serious work on
hand in East Africa. Along three
hundred miles Of the zanzibar coast,
betwee1 Paugani ON the north and
Kilwa on the south, they have been at
tackled by coast natives at five Of their
stations and several Germans have been
killed. This uprising has speedily fol-
lowed the ccs-ion 10 TO- Germans by
the Sultan Of Zanzibar Of this strip OF
coast abOu, five hundred miles long
and ten miles wide. The Immediate
pretcxt for this rebellion is the violent
disinclinatiou OF the cOa-t people 10
accept the sovereignty Of Europeans.
The real cause Of war il the aillliatiOn
OF the coast natives with the Arabs OF
the interior. These attacks are only the
latest development in the programme
OF Opcn hostility 10 all the whites in
Africa which led Mwanga, frcnzicd by
Arab lies, 10 kill Bishop Huntington,
and also Tod 10 the capture Of Stanley
Falls and the assaults upon the Euro
pcan settlers on Lake Nyassa.
These coast natives are not such un-
tutOrcd sayagcs "a those among whom
white mon have cast thcir lost ON tho
other side Of equatorial Africa. They
are half-raslc Arabs and Moslcm Nc
groids, the product Of two or three con-
turics Of the admixturc Of Arab, POrtu-
guc.c and Indian traders and settlers
with the native peoples. They dOmi-
nate most Of the narrow coast strip for
several hundred miles, purc-blOOdcd
Africans having rclrcatcd before them
into the Interior Thousands Of them,
the Wa Suahcli, have served explorers
"a porlcr-; bat most Of those who arc
now attacking the Germans are tho
half-castc Arabs aud coa7t clans known
as She Wa Mrima, whom the pure
Arabs regard as greatly their interiors,
though the most influential immigrant
in Contra. Africa, Tippu lib, is him
self haIi-ratte. Two-thirds Of tho
German stations are among tho pure
African tribes on the highlands from
75 10 100 miles west Of tho disturbed
coast strip.
The inevitable conflict between tho
whites who are trying 10 uplift and de-
vclop Arrica aud tho Moelcm- who aro
dccimatug and degrading her people
has now been signaiilcd by bIoodshcd
half way across the equatorial regions.
Every enterprise Of the whites from
sea To sea In This part of Africa is now
confronted by the Arab question and
the signs arc multiplying every day
that this probcm must be- settled be-
fore uyof those projects can go for
ward to which the Arab influence is u
perpetual monaco.
Fortunately for the Germans the
present impcdimcnt in their path is 50
near the sea that they will make short
work Of it when they seriously set
about It's removal. ~ l. sun.

as to entirely conceal the tacks. 1t

To CLEAN PAPERED WALLs.-Cut
the crust off of stale bread very thick.
and rub the walls carefully from top to
bottom, in straight line, using fresh
piece of bread as soon as it looks much
soiled. Wall paper is cheaper than it
used to be. You can get fair quality
of paper in exceeding pretty patterns
! for % cents a roll. The American
papers measure eight yards to roll.
The English rolls contain twelve yards,
and are about an inch and half wider
than the American, SO that if one fancies
patterns or colors most in the English
papers, it is Just as economical to buy
them, although the cost of each roll is
little more than that asked for those
manufactured in our own country.
! USE BoRAx IN WAsHING.-In en-
ploying common, cheap, but clean
soap, often put less than level tea
spoonful of powdered borax into the
bottom of my tub, pouring hot water
on it, and then cooling to the proper
degree. This borax makes the wash
ing more easy. and is good for the
hands, healing them when chapped, and
leaving them in good condition after
washing. Whatever good soap you
use, it is not necessary to boil the
clothes, but this process helps in most
cases, especially if the clothes are we'll
stirred about the boiler. 1t is rot best
to leave them actually boiling many
minutes, as this will turn them yellow.
The whole washing may be done with
out warm water if desired, but more
or stronger soap must be used, and the
labor is harder. We want to loosen the
dirt between the fibres of the cloth as
easily as possible, and then to rinse it
all away. This is the philosophy of
making soiled clothes clean.-Ameri
