She Returns to This Country After Months
of Adventure.
Mrs. French Sheldon, about whom the
newspapers of two continents have been
publishing strange stories for several
months past, has again returned to the
United States. She is an American by
biz tn, and there is nothing in her appear
ance to indicate that she likes wandering
over deserts, climbing mountains, the
companionship of ignorant and supersti-
tous men and women, or any other fea.
ture of African travel; in fact there is
apparently every reason to believe that
she enjoys the frivolities of civilized life
as well as do the women who listened
with tagerness and respect to her story.
Mrs. Sheldon went to Africa merely to
crafty her desire to see the country.
She paid her own expenses, transacted
all the necessary business herself, and,
excepting her maid, was the only white
woman in the caravan that she conduct
ed.
According to the scientific men who
have followed Mrs. Shedon's move
ments, her trip was remarkable for two
things. She traversed a large tract of
desert country, and she found her way
to lake which one Of the big African
explorers had declared inaccessible Her
trip occupied six months, and she
travelled 900 miles after reaching Zanzi
bar, her starting point. There she en-
plo ed some 1873 men as bearers, guides
and guards, and purchased the supplies
she considered necessary. Mombasa
was the point at which her hardsfips be-
gan, much of the trip from Zanzibar to
Mombasa having been by steamer. All
through the march into the interior, and
on the return, excepting short period
when she was disabled by accident, she
walked at the head of the column. The
tramp through the jungle from Nom
hasa involved a march of $50 miles be-
fore the caravan reached Lake Chala. a
body of water hich the great explorer,
Joseph Thomson, said could never be
reached. The surrounding country is
full of relics of the rain of fire, and Lake
Chala represents the latest manifestation
of volcanic energy. The lake itself is a
crater of intense volume. On the return
march Mrs. Sheldon met with an acct
dent by falling from her palanquin
while crossing stream, being thrown
into the water 60 feet below. She is
now, however, entirely recovered.

The Home Record of 1891.
1.-THE independent.

The year just closed has been. perhaps,
the most prosperous in the history of
this country. So far from being plunged
into all the commercial and financial
disasters which the opponents of the Nc
Kinley bill predicted, all branches of
business have been 10 fcuiishing con-
dition, and everybody has had plenty to
wear, and sufficient for other purposes.
OF course much of this prosperity was
due to the very abundant harvt SITS which
were gathered, and for the surplus of
which there was an active demand from
Europe. Both our exports and our i'm
ports were greatly increased, and there
was greater demand for labor in con-
sequence of the increased demand for
products of mills, which demand in turn
was due to Increased tariff rates on these
products.

Perhaps to the masses Lieutenant c..
A. L. Totten is what is called an eccen-
trio thinker. His declaration that the
recent auroral display in the heavens
was only one of the numerous signs that
are past and are soon to come as fore
runners of the end of the world, has
caused many to look upon him as a
modern prophet. Lieut.. Totten is at
present detailed as Professor of military
science and tactics at Yale college. He
was born in Connecticut and appointed
to the military academy at West Point
as cade, September l, 1869. He was
commissioned second lieutenant in the
4th artillery June ID, 1873, and was
made first lieutt nant May 20, 1875. He
is now enrolled with battery l. Lieut..
Totten is man somewhat under the
average stature. He is of taciturn dis
position, his mien is serious and his
glance quick and perceptive. Withal he
can enjoy joke and laugh heartily. He
is great smoker, and his dearest friends
are his pipe and a little leather satchel
containing his calculations. These two
articles are always with him wherever
he goes.
