The jaw is almost as striking as the eye,
and is large, square and set with grim deter
mination, giving the face an expression Of
cruelty. There is not q soft line in any
feature, and the deep lines and sRllow COM
plexion are evidently the traces OF his Cen
trail African explorations. When he speaks
he smiles rather automatically, and the
grasp of his hand, which is soft and white,
is firm but not hearty. He speaks in a low,
hoarSe tone, and his accent is decidedly
English. While he speaks freely and well,
there is about him an air of emblrraS Sment
and uneaSineSS, which is barely noticeable,
but which is probably the result of the Pc
culiar life he has led, away from the intlu-
ence of busy, everyday life
Tall. robust, handsome. rather inclined to

Miss Dorothy Tenant, but who now re

prominent literary notice by her clever Illus

from q flower show or first night at the
opera to garden party al the Marlborough
House, but Miss Dorothy Tenants name
appeared in the list Of guests. She acquired
p distinct fame in London for the quiet ele-
gance of her gowns and the number and va

a hobby with her. When she appeared in
the park. either riding or driving, she was
invariably attended by cavacade of adj
mirers en- suite. which was by no means les
sened even alter the announcement OF her
engagement. She was always to the front
in art and literary matters, which led the
Prince Of Wales to remark to Stanley at the
wedding: You marry not only very pref
~ and very charming girl, but woman
Grimful Of genius
The story of Stanley's wooing briefly told
is this: He first met Miss Tenant in Ea-
gland before starting in search Of Emin
Psshn, aud at first was cOOlly received. The
courage, ener2y and remarkable powers OF
description possessed by the great explorer,
however, gradually won their way to her
heart, and when Stanley finally mustered up
sufficient courage to propose marriage he
was promptly accepted She promised to
wait until he returned from Africa, and the
engagement was kept secret

For a few minutes after the arrival OF the
distinguished party at the Occidental yes
terday ali was confusion. Major HOOPER,
the manager, flew from place to place, and
created an amusing scene in the Office. He
rushed downstairs three steps at a jump
and with fire flashing from his eyes. To
the clerk on duty he said, why are these
mistakes allowed to occur at such time as
this?"
''What is it, MajorP"

haired man into the rooms assigned to Mr.
Stanley. 1t is really too bad at such time

1t took the clerk several minutes to con-
vince the Major that ''the little, gray-haired
man" was Stanley.
After resting and partaking of a light

STANLEY AFRICANUS.
Arrival Of the Explorer OF the
Dark Continent.
Appearance of the Famous Traveler-H His Wife
and Their Romantic Courtship-Peou-
iarities of the Man.

A short, compactly built man, with an
erect carriage and quick, springy step,
a!ighted from a carriage in front Of the Occi-
dental Hotel at y 80 o'clock yesterday after
noon. He WAS muffied in heavy brown
overcoat and wore black derby hat which
failed to conceal his snow white hair.
1t was Henry NJ. Stanley, the famous
African explorer, who was accompanied by
his wife and the latter's mother, Mrs.
Tenant With the party we're Maj II Pond,
Lieutenant Jehps N, Hammond Aide, the
London sOng-writer, and Stanley's black
boy, whom he brought from Zanzibar.
The party were shown to their apartments,
where Stanley and his wife were seen after
ward.
The former would be easily recognized
from his pictures, but no likeness of him
eau convey an accurate conception Of his
somewhat remarkable face. His most strik-
ing feature. perhaps. is his eye, which is
gray cold and piercing. Ii is not an eye to
invite confidence or to indicate warm,
generous impulses. Its quick. sharp
glances indicate rather keen penetration
and cool calculation, and it is easy to
realize that it would fairly blaze il its
possessor was reused to anger. A white
mus:ache conceals his lips, which are, on
close inspection, thin and firmly set.

THE OTHER SIDE.
What NJ. Solomon Has to Say About L. II.
Horner OF New York.

Horner of New York.
In an item published in THE CALL of
yesterday relating to the Intention of the
United Stats authorities to prosecute those
who are engaged in the sale of German
Austrian bonds was a paragraph based upon
a telegram as follows:
The PostOf1ice Department has advised the ar
rest of NJ. Saiomcu at san Francis co for using
the mails in sending circulars advertising the
German usirian Premium Bonds. Solomon is
said 10 be confederate OF e. Ii. Horner Of New
York.
Mr.. Solomon denied the truth of the ale
CATION in the dispatch, and declared, while
speaking of this matter yesterday, that not
only is Ee not confederate of Homer but
never had anything 10 do with him, for he
looks upon him as dangerous man to the
community. He stated that so much is he
opposed to him and his methods of doing
business that he had one Of his agents, Nor
bert Bianck, prosecuted in San Jose for OBJ
tanning money under false pretenSes. 1t
appeared upon the trial that one Louis Hen
ming purchased bond of Solomon for
stipulated price; that he subsequently
passed it to Blanck on the turning over of
another bond Of the class Horner deals in
and the representation that it was worth
SO more than the one Solomon had sold
him. Justice King, before whom the case
was tried, found the accused guilty and
fined him Sl2j. with the alternative Of i'm
prisonment i'll case Of non-payment of the
penalty.
I'll l was a confederate of Horner,"
said Solomon, ut is not likely that l would
have one Of his agents prosecuted.

he must have told her many things that he
has never revealed to the outside world. In
one of his letters to her he wrote such har-
rowing account of the sufferings OF his band,
and gave such vivid picture of the death
of a gigantic negro slowly swallowed by a
huge serpent that his tiancee swoo ned while
reading it. His companions were aware OF
his love story, and many a tree in the heart
OF the Dark Continent has Dolly" deeply
cut in the bark. The natives thought it
fetish, and often Frustrated themselves be-
fere it.
They were married last Jane in West
minister Abbey.
This was not, however, the great explor-
er's first experience with the little god. 1t
was while travelling in Greece that he saw a
most beautiful young creature. Suddenly
he was aware of something alive stirring
within his hardened heart. and the long de-
laytd emotion of the tender passion crept
over him.. awakening him TO things I'M
known before. He sought out her family
and made n proposition OF marriage. The
brothers felt fattered by the honor done
their sister and accepted II. The day ar
rived. Stanley was arrayed in bis wedding
garments and just about to leave his room
for the house of his prospective bride, when
the two brothers called. With brigaud-liBe
courtesy they laid their case briefly before
him: would the American be so kind as
10 put certain large sum of money in the
bank in their names rs guarantee that he
would never leave the borders of Greece
after his marriage with their sister?" OF
course he wouldn't, and couldn't if he
would. "Then he would have to excuse the
sister"
The latter had no voice in the matter,
and Stanley choked down the bitter agony
Of his proud spirit, and plunged again into
the heart Of Africa.
With the outlines of Stanley's life the
world is familiar, but his peculiarities Of
temperament are slow in coming out. For
aduation ii is said he cares nothing, but for
fame and money he cares everything. When
he first returned from Africa Queen Vic
tora sent him gold snuff-box studded with
danonds-had he been woman it would
have been an India shawl-accOmpanied by
a congratulatory note. The explorer tossed
1t aside aud said to an American friend who
was with him: ''How much will you lend
