Powerful African Tribes.

The popular idea of African tribes Is that
they are ignorant and uncivilized, and
could easily be subjugated by any of the
great nations Of the world which would
take the trouble to send handful of men
into the interior Of the dark continent
for that PURPOSE. Lieutenant Nixon, a
French officer who has been exploring in
the Soudan. shows the fallacy of this idea
for he says that France is likely to get into
serious trouble If she attempts to extend
her dominions in that direction by force Of
arms He reported thatsthe kingdom O
Adamawa was very powerful, and, more
over, civilized. aThe capital was Jolat, a
royal town. and kind of Versailles, in
habited by rich and intelligent men. There
was, however, not single industrial OF
commercial town in the country.
Although the sultan could not raise O
powerful army in order to make wal
against another country. he could never
theless, in case of an invasion of his terri
tory, place In the field million warriors
because the whole country would rise, and
all the inhabitants were of warliks
nature NJ NIXON added that his sole OBJ
ject to conclude treaties in order Il
improve the commercial relations between
France and those countries by securing
special privileges for French trade.
