BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.

IF Africa Is to Be Christianized
the Champions OF That Faith
Must Be Up and Doing.
Special Cable to the Globe.
LONDON, Jan. 12.-The reports Of the
troubles in Uganda, eliminating in the
dethronement of King Mwanga, have
given rise to widespread COM
ment and speculation. The con-
sensus of opinion is that another
point has been scored by Mohamme-
danism. the revival of which IN that
country is a sign that if Christianity
means to conquer, the champions of that
faith must prepare for long and bitter
fight. The really serious effort to
Christianize Africa has already been
too long delayed. Already all Africa
accepts and fights for the Mohammedan
faith and the unanimity with which it
is defended is attested by the fact that
warriors from Sierra Leone are to be
found in Osman Digna's army. The
propagators of Christianity in Southern
Africa find little encouragement in the
fall of Mwanga and the elevation of
his brother to the throne of Uganda,
since it was that monarch's weak
ness and lack of desire for con-
quest which caused his over
throw. Rev. Mr.. Walker, who has
been for several years missionary in
Mwanga's country, describes the de-
posed chieftain as young man Of
tWenty-three, with weak mouth and
chin and silly smile accompanying his
ordinary vacuous expression. He is
easily led, passionate to the degree of
frenzy when provoked and very easily
frightened, and it is Mr.. Walkers
opinion that it would have been much
better for the cause of Christianity in
his territory had he remained on the
throne

PANAMA. Jan. ANNOUNCING .tele-
grams from private sources in Paris
lend to keep up the spirits of all through
this trying period of anxiety for the
iSthmus. The uneasineSs in the money
market has subsidized, but exchange still
keeps to an abnormal figure, ranging
between 81 and GA per cent. The reso-
buttons lately presented by Mr.. Ed
munds to the United States senate with
reference to European Intervention in
American matters are not regarded ia
Vorably either here or in other Spanish
American republics. The newspapers
are just coming in now with comments
upon the resolution. The general
tenor of opinion as thus reflected in
the press is that as these repub-
lies effected their own freedom from
European domination, and are abSo-
IuteIy free and sovereign states, any
such action by the United States as
suggested in resolutions would amount
to an infringement of their national
rights. In this country more particu-
| larly, as is natural under circumstances,
public opinion runs high Oh the subject.
In the CONTRACT between this govern
ment and the canal company there iSa
clause that particularly sets forth no
transfer of rights and privileges can
take place, and certainly that no gov
ornamental intervention could possibly
be tolerated on the part of France. In
the event, therefore. of any such oc-
currence as that anticipated by the Ed
munds resolution. it is argued that the
Colombian government would alone
have the right of protest in the first in
stance, and that only in answer to di-
rect appeal from her could any other
country assume the right of interposi-
ton. The government of this republic
has been authorized to disburse annu-
ally the sum of 100000 for educational
DUrDOSeS.

OLD PROPS OFFERING.
There Is No Reason to Fear That
There Will Be q Late Spring.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., Jan. 12.-Accord-
ing to the following extract from semi
private letter received here to-day, the
weather department apparently does
not believe that the present mild
weather indicates late winter and cold
spring:
SIGNAL. OFFICE WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-The
significance of the unusual weather coEdi
tons for the past seven months can be ex-
planned only with reference to the abnormal
distribution of atmospheric pressure over the
northern hemispheres. Under the doctrine
of averages we could reasonably look for an
open. mild winter, since the late spring and
summer was cooler than usual. and to cOun-
terbalance the deficiency of tempera-
ture in the spring and summer there
should be an excess in the winter
just now occurring. This. however, cannot
be regarded as responsible for future proph
ecies, since the scientific use Of the average
can only refer to very long periods, and can
not safely be referred to in special short
periods. such as six months or year, in case
of temperature and rainfall. My personal
opinion is that no one has reasonable
grounds for predicting late spring on this
simple basis of the present winter being so
far mild and open. A. w. GREEDY,
Chief Signal Officer.

formed of still smaller dimensions, still

pear. This is the tendency of the age. This
