about this place as they had been since spring
feeding on the insects they capture in the air

the forenoon an old resident Of Roulette snid:
To-day Is the 9th Of August. There will be

Just before sunset the swallows began to
gather in groups as they skinned through
the mir. These groups gradually increased In
size, and finally became massed in one i'm

the swallows finally ceased hunting insects in
their flight and tho great flock ,circled three

Arab instruction under Roumaliza has spread
from Tanganyika to Stanley Falls. and what
was merely q local demonstration has devel-
oped into a general uprising OF the Arabs OF
Central Africa against white domination. The
Arabs have grown desperate owing to the evil
dent determination Of tho whites to suppress
the slave trade. by which the Arabs have ac-
cumulatcd their wealth and established their
power. They were greatly encouraged by the
disaster to the British under Capt. Mcguire
last December. when Capt Mcguire and two
other Englishmcn lost their lives in conflict
with slave traders. and the Arabs were still
moro strengthened In their hostile attitude by
the moro recent successful attack on Fort
johnson.

OF Central Africa.
The Arabs in Zanzibar do not conceal their
satisfaction with the news. as their Is deep ir-

injured business both at Zanzibar and PemIa.
The Glove trade is in n most depressed condi.
