aow the DwHffs of the Great African Fer
est Build and Live.
Their villages, situated under the i'm
pervious foliage OF the largest clump Of
trees to be found near the locality where
they propose camping. struck us as being
comfortable, snug and neat. have seen
ninety-two huts in one Of these villages,
arranged in circle Of about fifty yards
in diameter. The pygmy camps are gen
orally found at the crossways, where two
or more paths intersect, and are from two
81 three miles distant from agricultural
settlements. Our anxieties always less
0ned on meeting them, for the moro
paths we found the more we were as
Eured of food and the roads improved.
Sometimes these forest villages were
planted midway between parallel lines
of settlements. A short walk from our
camp through the woods, north or south,
would take us to plantations large enough
10 supply a regiment with food. One
| time We came 10 II group of dwarf vii
lagos whence a broad path six feet wide
communicated with another group three
miles distant. This road was revela-
tion. II informed us that the tribe was
more than usually powerful; that 1t WAS
well established: that the chief possessed
power, and was permitted to exercise it.
Outside Of the great kingdom of Uganda
we had not seen in Africa a cut road
longer than half mile.
The huts in every pyginy camp were
of tortoise back figure. The doorways
were not more than three feet high. and
Were placed at the ends, one being for
daily use, and the other, which fronted
the bush, for e.cape. Those for constant
convenience looked ont on the circular
common and pointed to the center, where
stood the tribal chiefs hut, rs though the
duty Of every household was to watch
over the safety OF him who ruled the
community.
We rarely found hut higher than
four feet six inches. In length they va.
|, ried from seven to ten feet. while the
width would be from four aud half feet
to seven. In what appeared to be old IS.

excellent idea, although the information

handsome compliment from Emperor
William. who has pronounced it one Of
the finest military bodies organized. a
letter received here from a New Yorker
now in the F'atherland conveys this news,
with the announcement that his Imperial
Majesty held our militiamen up as an eX-
ample to his subjects. Under no cOmpul-
sion they have formed little armies, he
says, and if such a regiment as the
Seventh has attained its splendid emf

by the assertions that President Portirio
Diaz is about to make visit to the
United States in the course of which he
will pay an official visit to President
Cleveland, and subsequently go on to
New York and Chicago The president
of Mexico, " said the consul general lis
forbidden to leave the country during
his term of Office. There is no truth in
the reports of Mr.. Diaz's visit. He has
some three years still to serve of his
present term, and unless he means to re
sigma most remote possibility-he will
not come at all to the United States"
But Mexico's president continues to be a
purchaser on an extensive scale of works
of art and bric-a-brac in New York. An
order filled for him the other day in
cluded tapestry, miniature paintings, a

articles of jewelry. AL these objects go

A Congress of Criminals.


New York. July l5.-Said Russell Sage
lately. IN "a rare burst of confidence: Il
go 10 bed roaring every night of my life"
Naturally his hearer asked an explana
tion. and was informed that the rapid
transit situation occasioned the mighty
tinancier's merriment. The New YORK
city authorities, backed by public opin
ion. have been making much ado over
their threats to abandon all negotiation
with the elevated railroad people. The
latter laugh in their sleeves. Nothing
would suit Russell Sage and his clique
better than to have some one build an un
derground or overhead transportation
line in Gotham The Manhattan di-
rectors are really trying to 50 shape the
situation that this shall be done. The
road once completed and paid for they
would step in and by the sheer brute
power of money force it out of the build
CrS' hands into their own. The project
now is to seem to yield to the demands of
New Workers with the ultimate object OF
bringing all this 10 pass. Hence MIR.

The Gaekwar and the Four Hundred.

The merriment occasioned by the COM
ing visit of the Gaekwar of Baroda and
other Indian princes to New York en-
route to the worlds fair is a trife prema-
ture. Mrs. Paran Stevens, Mr.. Ward
McAllister and Mr.. John Jacob Astor are
taking a particular interest in the Gaek-
war, for he bears letters of introduction
to all three of them from such personages
as Lord ROsebery, w. w. Astor and the
Duke of Argyll. The intention is to give
a series Of brilliant soirees in honor of
the princes, all to be very exclusive and
to sharply contrast the elegance and dig
nifty of the -Four Hundreds hOnizing with
that of the mere rabble, as shown by the
treatment accorded Eulalie and Veragua.
The Indian potentates do not come to US
as guests of the nation, and New York's
society people have already planned to
take advantage Of that fact and secure a
monopoly of the visitors. However,
Mayor GLORY intends to officially receive
them, and what with them and their ma
tive garo, their jewels ana silks and their
duslly manilness of personal appearance,
the whole city will be given a highly
novel exhibition. The princes bring
with them Il team of white mules and a
white six wheel carriage in which drive
TO the city hall will be made. Their visit
will extend for several weeks.

A Curious FaDric.

There is certain dress goods fabric
manufactured in france under the
name Of Plou, or American flannel,
which is said to be almost as inflam-
mable as gunpowder, and extremely
dangerous. It is made of cotton, and
it's inflammability is ascribed to the
chemicals with which it is prepared.
A French writer says that recently
he. was dining at the table of lady
who was clothed in this material. In
the act of saturating an omelette with
rum, to which she set fire with match,
drop Of the burning liquid was spilled
on her dress, which in an instant was
ablaZe from top to bottom, rs if it had
been made of grncotton. The lady had
the presence Of mind to throw herself
on the floor, thus putting out the fire
with the aid Of those present, who
smothered the flames with covers, etc.
An examination of the dress after the
fire had been put out showed that it's
aspect had changed but little, except
that the velvety softness peculiar to
the material was gone from every spot
that had been burned. The weft was
intact.
