BOAT WITH A HISTORY.

Trading Vessel, Slave D1cw snd Finally
an ExpioRsr's Craft.
A little vessel having a remarkable
history has piled for years on Lake
Tanganyika. Her story illustrates the
progress in that region from savagery
toward civilization. Tho boat known
as the Caiabash Yves originally huge
tree trunk, cut down 6y tho axes of the
natives with enornous labor, and then,
with Ak and ad7o and FIRE, nodded into
shape. Boats like the Cslabash are ex-
cellent sea vessels, though In their lines
they suggest rather clumsy hippopota-
mus than . swan
On ono Of her voyages, after she had
served rs a trading canoe fortwo years,
she entered the port Of Ujiji, where she
was bought BY an Mswahili slave
trader. For three years she piled back
and forth ACROSS the lake. bringing car

Lake Tanganyiza, as il appears on

surveys which Mr.. Hore carried out on
the Caaabash. His survey is the best
that has yet been made of the lake. He
padded and sailed along the shores,
every day seeing grand panorama of
unknown lands and new tribes. Bv
careful measurement and observations,
month after month, the outlines of the

countries were marked on the map of

and looked about him and saw some

A man and a. horse when mbined

A man or a horse alone has little
