Tribes or Ltttle Mem Extending HAL
Way Across Africa.

Tribes or Lleale Mem Extending Halt
Way Across Africa.
When Paul Du Chaillu. about 80 years
ago, reported the existence of a dwaf
RAGS in west Africa, his statements were
received with derisive incredulity. The
world little dreamed that his story would
be proved TO be perfectly accurate. and
also that later explorations would bring
to light many tribes of these little people
stretching far across Africa.
The latest discoveries concerning the
dwarfs have been made this year by the
Eench explorer. Gaillard, during his
fruitful researches on the upper Songha
River, one of the largest northern tib-
utaries of the Congo. He found near he
towns of important chiefs many families
of dwarfs, who in that region are called
the Babingas. They are great elephant
hunters They do not live in the vii
lagos, but camp in the forests. They are
OF less than medium stature, are very
muscular. are extremely skillful in tho
chase, and their weapons are assegais,
with head like that of harpoon.
They wear their hair and beard uncut
and have no ornaments. When they feel
that they have grievance against chief
under whose protection they have been
living they disappear into the forest
without saying word, and begin again
in other regions their lives as nomad
hunters. In return for the fruits of the
chase, with which they supply the chiefs,
vegetables and articles of native man.
eRf ora arfu fxN
source of profit TO the tribes among
whom they live, and consequently they
are almost always well treated.
The discovery of the Babingas adds
another link to the almost unbroken chain
of these dwarf tribes, extending from the
region west of Gaboon to the Nile. The OBJ
ango OF Du Chaillu, the Babingas OF Gail
lard, the Aka Of Schweinfurt, the Tiki
tai of Stanley, are all evidently frag
ments of an ancient tribe of little men,
who were probably scattered to widely
separated regions by the fortunes of war
in which they were vanquished by intrud-
ing races who were physically moro
powerful than themselves. The numer-
Gus dwarfs known as the Batwa, who
have been found in the southern part of
the Congo basin, are also near relatives
OF the people north Of the Congo. All OF
them, though the various fragments
are widely separated, have the same
characteristics. 1t is surprising that such
widely separated people, who perhaps
have not heard of one another for some
centuries, should retain so much in COM

Although the people In the northern part
of Georgia have the finest soil on earth for
raising vegetables. they stick year after
year to cotton and corn, and import veg
etables at heavy cost. The country is
developing rapidly, and the manufacture
ing towns springing up give an increas-
ing1market for all kinds of the stuff
called garden truck; but the farmers 20
placidly along IN the footsteps Of their
fathers and raise cotton and corn,

farmer who was complaining about the
small profits of cotton growing.
@Oh. i can't raise no pertatoes, said
the man despondently.

tatoes, and you can.get 81 busEel for

Advocate. an. Us. or A,eohol.

The great storm of discussion which
DR. j. Mortimer Granville started in the
London Times by his outspoken advocacy
of the moderate use of alcohol has now
subsidized, and the doctor, rallying from
the storm of expostulation, sarcasm, and
denunciation outpoured on his devoted
head, has taken a breath and restated
his position. He stands manfully by his
colors After reiterating his hatred and
contempt for drunkenness, he says:
Abstinence all the world over and in
all ages has taken, and still takes, the
backbone out of man and leaves him
limp, invertebrate animal with pulpy
brain, feeble intelligence, and a will
which lacks the power to assert its au-
thority over the instincts and propensities
it was made to control Drunkenness
suspends the action of the will, and il
often repeated it destroys the power il
had too frequently enslaved; but mod
crate and wise use Of alcohol il suitably
apportioned quantities is not only desira-
bic but advantageous to the healthy NOT
less than to the sick.
"The weak minded and short sighted
practice Of 'tippling' and treating with
drinks at odd intervals throughout tho
day. with no better excuse than having
thirst or feeling local. is the siIlies.
and most irrational to which any sane
man can addict himself. Can not a

intercourse without helping the object

Professor A. L. Rawson lectured before
the New York Academy of Sciences at
Columbia College on the prehistoric wall
and the inscription thereon discovered
last March in Bradley county, Ky. The
wall, he said, was composed of three
tiers OF red sandstone. It was 1 900 feet
long and in places about eight feet below
the surface Of the ground. 1t was, in
his opinion, constructed by prehistoric
race. The inscriptions. he found, con-
tanned over 500 characters. 500 Of which
were distinct, while about 300 were dupli-
Gates He compared these inscriptions
with the Dighton rock discovered near
Fall River, Mass, soon after the landing
Of the pilgrims; also part Of the inscrip-
tion at Klamath in Syria, and concluded
that they were even a greater puzzle than
any Of the Egyptian hieroglyphics.
