Arabs, and Mohammedans and Central
Africa knows no more skillful tactician
than he.

Emin Pasha is not dead. [ do not believe

has seen his remains or secures indisput-
able proof of his having been killed comes
forward and tells the story. l was not far
from Emin's locality about eight months
ago and heard from him frequently. He
was then south of Victoria Nyanzs. and
everything thereabout was in perfect
peace.
He sent me NJ word he had never been
on better terms with the Arabs, and that
he had regained with the people of Central
Africr nearly all the prestige that he had
previously lost. His prospects we're bright
and there was not cloud on his horizon
of success. These reports OF his death are
periodical, and as you know from ex-
perience, utterly unworthy of cred it,"
