Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-05-14
Trunks. NeighbOr.

More than once. from careful com.
parison of them all, we have had occa-
sion to remark that the HERALD is the
best daily in Southern California, il
not in the State. 1t is observed that
whatever the HERALD does is done
decently and in order. The HERALD
is always eninently respectable, like
going TO church on Sunday, and we
may add, the HERALD is always in
telligent and abreast of the times
with the news, and with seasonable
comment on the news. OF course the
HERALD puts the same work, ability
and respectabiliiy into its ANNALS
that it does into the newspaper,
and it is about to get out another OF
those excellent periodicals. Mr.. G..
w. Burton, representing the HERALD,
was at Anaheim Tuesdly to see what
Anaheim advertisers would do for
themselves in this line. Considerable
was accom- rlished, but there are more
yet to hear from. Every business

AN IMPORTANT ExPLOK ALTON
Sol wing the Problems OF African
Discovery.

Since the discovery Of the course OF
the Congo no more important explo-
ration has been made in Africa than
that which Captain Van Gele has just
completed, writes correspondent of
the New York Sun. 1t has fallen to
him to solve at last the greatest of the
few remaining problems Of African
geography. Steaming up the Mo-
bangi, affluent of the Congo, he has
assembled that stream about 700 miles,
about 25O miles further than Gren-
fell's turning point, practically con-
Meeting his explorations with those Of
DR.. Junker on the Welle-M -Makua. He
has proved the correctness of the
brilliant hypothesis advanced by Al.
Wauters, the Belgian geographer,
three years ago, that the Mobangi is
nothing else than the lower course OF
the Welle- Makua, discovered by DR..
Sch weinfurth in 1870. The long con-
troversy among geographers as to
whether the Welle- -Makua flows into
Lake Chad Or the Congo is happily
ended, and we now know that the
greatest northern tributary OF the
Congo, which joins the mighty river
little south Of the equator, has it's
rise 800 to 1 800 miles away on the
western slope OF the hills that over
look the valley Of the Nile. The ex-
plorations that have completed the
work of Schweinfurth, Junker and
Grenfall are included between 10 and
% degrees east longitude and and
degrees north latitude.
A little over three years ago Mr..
Grenfell entered the Mobangi. which
he found to be over a mile wide at its
mouth. Accompanied by his wife

Scenery by daylight is great feature, as

and infant he assembled the river on
his steamer Peace over 400 miles
finding it far more populous than any
equal length of the Congo. The
arrows OF the natives struck harm
lessly against the wire network that
protected his deck, and at one place
he discovered tree houses, in which
the frightened people took refuge as
his steamer pulled along. On his
way down the river he bought plenty
Of food and found not sign OF hos
tility.
At the very time that GreDfell was
making these discoveries, Junker was
pushing westward in the Makua val
lev, and finally he reached Ali Kobo,
about 800 miles above the farthest
point attained by Grenfell. At this
point the river was several miles wide
and full Of islands, some of which
were densely peopled, and on others
there we're great herds of elephants.
He found rapids near the Opt tribu-
taty. Unless Van Gele has found
serious obstacles to navigation, it is
not known that any impossible bar
flerS eAiSt aiunE tuc flNof from lCS
mou h to the Kabali rapids within 800
miles of the Nile. Grenfell safely
passed through the Congo rapids, but
Van Gele, in his first attempt to make
the journey he has now successfully
com pleted was unable to push his weak
little vessel through the rapid current
at high water. From the estimated
attitudes which Junker and Grenfell
have supplied, it is probable that Van
Gele found an unimpeded course in
that part of the river which he alone
has visited.
BIr. Stsnley has long maintained
that the region between the Congo
and the Nile is probably the richest
and most promising in equatorial
Africa. The world will wait with in
crest the details OF Captain Van
iele's voyage. The geographical |
problem has been solved, and tie ex-
olorer's story is likely to disclose to
IS q splendid practical highway~for
commerce between the middle course
If the Congo and the Nile Basin. -
