Zanzibar, but who unfortunately proved
o great thief.
On Thursday, November 3, great
crowd of natives came down to see us
off and. bid goodbye to their friends
who were members of our crew. Bionelo,
our native head man, and one or two OF
the other natives brought wife each
with them to look after cooking arrange
ments.
Amid the cries of farewell and the
waving of cloths from the crowd on
shore we steamed off up against the
strong current of the Congo. Soon
passing the wide mouth Of the Ronki,
which pours dark food of water nearly
a mile broad into the Congo, we ar
rived off the grassy shores OF the
Ikelemba. smaller tributary, and con-
tinued our way up toward Lulangu, a
large village situated at the mouth of
the Lulungu river. which we hoped to
reach ere nightfall.
On arriving at Lulangu next morning
we procured guide who had made sew
eral trading and slave-raiding expedi-
tions up as far as Malinga town on the
main branch Of the Lulungu, which, as
l have said is called the Malinga river.
Our guides name was Elenge Mimic,
literally young Man," and we subse-
quently found him a very useful COM
panion.
The Lulangu people had been accus-
toned to the sight of an occasional
passing steamer going up the Congo to
Bangala or Stanley Falls; but we were
now leaving the great highway and fol-
lowing where only Grenfell and Vaugeli

The Lulangu natives were very friend

of aged and youthful loveliness as we
steamed past the two or three. miles Of
huts fronting the Lulungu.
At noon we arrived of q. village we
were informed by Elenge Minto was
called .Bolongo on the left bank. We
put in here and halted for the.day. The

horn-bill, which served Glave and my
self an evening meal.
We spent the two next days padding
through long succession OF narrow
channels of the great river, searching
for traces Of elephant grounds-and al
though we landed at one or two spots
and had some hours of hard tramping
through forest and swamp up to our
waists in water and mud, or scrambling
over roots Of trees-we could find no re-
cent tracks of either elephant or buff
falo. The natives Of village we came
to in our wanderings, named Bakanga,
assured us that the buffaloes were so
numerous in the woods around that they
were obliged to fence in their manioc
and banana plantations with logs and
felled trees to keep out these intruders,
and following two of the men, who Of
fered to guide us to spot where we
should certainly find game, we spent
three hours in q terribly hot crawl
through thick wood with dense under
growth to an open patch of long grass
without coming across any thing worth
shooting. Returning to the village. We
determined to remain there all night
and have q try at the buffaloes in the
early morning, when the natives assured
US their manioc plantations would be
overrun by them.
Mongessi, who labored under the de-
fusion that he was q great sportsman,
had meanwhile primed himself with q
big gourd full Of palm wine, and he now
set of with Glave's Express rife in q
small canoe, padded by his unwilling
wife, to shoot a hippopOtamus which
was playing about in the Congo opposite
the village.
The canoe wobbled fearfully owing
to Mongessi's wild attempts to stand up
right in it, and long ere the canoe
we promptly dispatched after him for
the recovery Of the rife had been able
to overtakes them, he and his wife were
Laundering in the river; but the rife,
fortunately enough, was safe at the bot
tom Of the canoe. Mongessi returned
somewhat damped, and the poor wife
consoled herself for her ducking by
spelling his evening meal and making
herself generally disagreeable for the
remainder Of the evening.
By this time we had had enough Of
Bakanga, SO we departed an hour later
for the Equator by new route, through
q different network of islands, in the
channels between which we came upon
herds of hippos, but very wild, owing
to the presence OF many fishing canoes.
We succeeded in shooting q couple, but
although they were badly wounded, we
could not tell II we had succeeded In
killing them outright or not, and were
obliged to continue our journey in or

where arrived suffering from q severe
touch Of fever, brought on by exposure
to the sun during our long passage OF
the river.
On October 2s the long-expected
Florida appeared in sight, steaming
round the point below our station. We
had been YEARLY waiting for her,
Glave and ], to make our eagerly-desired
journey up the Lulungu river, which,
with It's main feeder, the Malinga native
report described as being the richest
ivory-producing affluent Of the Con-
TO- We were anxious, too, to PEN
citrate the country OF the BalOlO, the
strange people dwelling on the banlts'of
the Malinga, OF whom Rev. George
Grenfell, Of the English Baptist Mission,
had brought down some curious infor-
nation from his trip up the Malinga on
the little mission steamer Peace. His
had been the first visit of white man
to that river, and we were anxious to
sec how the natives would now receive
us, stopping at every village as we in
tended doing, and endeavoring to make
friends by undergoing the ceremony Of
blood brotherhood, done by scratching
the arm Of each party and rubbing one
abrasion against the other, and pur-
chasing almost any thing the natives
would bring us to sell.
Not wishing to provoke hostilities by
introducing q quarrelsome foreign ele-
ment We left the regular Zanzibar and
conservative crew of the Florida at
Equator, replacing them by the best
and most capable of our native friends
from the surrounding villages. There
still remained the two Lagos men, from
the British colony on the Gold Coast,
who acted as assistants to our white
engineer in looking after the engines
and fires-two or three Loango firemen
from a district north of the Congo
mouth-and my Loango servant Tati,

and the friend of all the natives. They
daily crowded the precincts of the sta

other implements OF war. yet with
friendly smiles on their faces and good
will apparent in all their actions.
Rarely during my three months stay
at Equator was, the peace Of the district
disturbed by strife between neighboring
villages or attacks from outsiders, and
although we heard of the ;decapitation of
slaves in villages not far distant, exc
.cuted to accompany their masters to the
spirit world, our presence and oft-ex-
pressed adherence of this custom, re-
strained our more immediate neighbors
from indulging in their head-cutting pro-
pensities.

low entrances into the interior. Inside
was blacksmith's shop and room for q
couple of hundred people If closely
packed.
We quilted the friendly Bolongo
people early next morning, and
steamed up between forest-clad
islands, and banks of high trees amid
which troops OF silver-gray and black
monkeys were sporting.
The district we were approaching, we
learned from our guide. was Bukutila,
and on drawing near we were greeted
by an immense crowd Of men, women
and children, calling out to us to come
on shore, and by regular fiotilla Of
small canoes which put of to Us.
On putting the steamer in to the bank
and coming to anchor alongside the
shore, we were crowded by the numbers
of people DESTROYS of seeing us and SELL
ing us pieces of firewood (of which our
stock was never too ample), and eggs.
These latter we purchased for single
cowrie shell each, which gives about
twenty-five or twenty-three eggs for
two cents!
The population of Bukutils struck usa as
being of somewhat finer build than the
Bolongo or lower river people, although
they cut their features with the same
tribal marks as do the natives of the
Equator and Lulanga districts-a series
of horizontal incisions about an inch in
length extending down the forehead
from the hair to between the eyes, with
similar incisions on each temple.
The women were generally clothed
in grass string cloth-a costume consist
ing Of belt Of woven grass the thick
ness Of piece of Irvine from which de-
pended innumerablo strips Of dried
grass, dyed either black, red or yellow
brown, reaching to the middle Of the
thigh, and entirely encircling them.
Some of them were not content with
only one such costume, but had supple
mented the original black garment by
attaching a second red, and even third
yellow herbal arrangement on top of It,
so that they presented the appearance
of row of lightly-clad premiC-es
dGnseuses of the comic opera stage; and
the agility with which they changed
their reposeful attitudes of rapt adm;ra-
ton or wondering regard Of our strange
looking selves when the engineer blew
the steam whistle, into frantic attempts
to escape up the bank, or disappear be-
hind brushes or huts, heightened the
resemblance. How we laughed at this

With the earliest dawn we re-entered
our canoes, loaded every gun and rifle
and commenced padding across to re-
new the fight, determined to punish
the Ronlis for their unprovoked attack
Of the previous night They saw us
coming, and renewed their wild dance
and song, but as we came within one
hundred yards or so Of the shore they
one by one sidled of behind the tree
trunks and into the forest, so that by
the time our canoes grounded on their
beach we could not see single foe. We
sent q volley in among tho srees and
then landed. Our natives promptly
seized all the huts, which contained only
few paddles and some fishing tackle,
and setting fire to them we pushed OH,
taking with us two canoes which we
found up little creek. These We sank
in mid-stream, and then catching sight
OF two big canoes full Of men making
off up river about eight hundred yards
above us we gave chase, thinking them
to be probably OF the party which had
fred on u.s. However, after half an
hours hard padding we found we were
no nearer, so we contented ourselves
with seeing them turn up side creek
and disappear from view in the thick
bushes of the island we had been
skirting, and feeling that, having dis
persed our enemies and sufficiently pun
ished their wanton attack by the capture
of the two canoes and the burning Of
the huts, we returned down stream and
continuedour journey to the north bank
mainland, passing the scene of the con-
fiagration, on which the Ronkis were
beginning to reassemble to soc what
damage we had done.
We padded all that day under burn
ing sun until late in the afternoon, be-
fore we reached the mainland of the
north shore. Camping for the night in
thick forest Glave shot o couple Of

Soon after my arriving at Equator we
determined to go on hunting excur-
sion to the north bank of the Congo
where elephants were reported by the
natives as being very numerous Our
way lay through amaze of channels be-
tween forest-covered islands or sedgy
sandbanks which here stud the placid
bosom Of the Congo at this point, or
for several hundred miles Of its course,
