No explorer in Africa has had more
thrilling experiences than those of DR..
and Mrs. Holub among the widest Of
African sayages, the Mashukulumbe.
The party spent weeks there, though
they could not have lived an hour if
the natives had not been III moftal
terror Of the white mans weapons.
Two are three white men have since
nibbled around the edge of that forbid
den region, but none has ventured
into it.
DR.. Holub has models made of all the
mammals in his collection that were
foot long and upward The models
were based on measurements OF the
bodies by Mrs. Hoiub, who, throughout
the four years expedition. was one of
its most helpful and active members.
She is one of the few white women who
have been able TO render splendid SerV-
ice i'll African explorations.
4 Tremendous Work
1t would take much space to give
detailed statement of the scientific work
of this fruitful expedition. Dr.. Holub,
for instance, made observations fixing
the latitude and longitude OF 100 differs
ent places. He ascertained the aDso-
lutte height above the sea OF 9, $50 places.
The elevation above the plain of 100
hills and mountains was determined.
Route charts and chronological charts
were made, and large charts showing
the distribution of mammals and plants.
Then there were thousands of meteCro-
logical observations, studies of fourteen
tribes with their various arts and Gus
toms, studies of numerous new plants
for the use of the materia medlca, and
the exploration of large unknown terri
tories along the ZambeSl. Four large
volumes contain the history and results
of DR.. Holub'S work. He has devoted
another large book to ORTHODOXY. and
his reports and papers are numerous.
Dr.. Holub long ago dedicated his life
to scientific exploration, and he expects
before long to resume his work in Afri-
ca. During his short visit to this coun-
try he is sure to find everywhere cor
dial welcome from geographers aud
naIuralists and from the large part Of
the public who have known Of his
achievements. His own cOuntrymen
are proud of his fame as one OF the two
or three most conspicuous scientific
travellers of their fatherland, and both
East and West they are arranging to
welcome him, and appointing dates for
the addresses which he is to deliver be
fore their societies. He is in the prime
OF life, a hale, stout,ruddy man Of about
fcrty-seven, on whom his eleven years
work iii Africa, including great hard
ships and perils, seem to have left no
trace.
Probably most people would regard as
little eccentric All explorer VINO re-
that has cost him many years of labor,
but gives. the valuable results freely
where he is confident that they will
serve the best scientific and educational
ends. This, however, is what Dr.. Ho-
lub has been doing.

JUDGMENT G.iANTED
In Actions to Set aside Deeds OF
Trans iei.

In Actions to Set aside Deeds of
Transfer.
Judge Willis yesterday gave judg-
ment against Katharine E. Baker in two
suits brought to have cancelled and set
aside deeds of transfer 10 property pur-
chased by her husband. Guy w. Baker.
Charlotte NJ. Clarke was the plaintiff in
plaintiffs in the other. The circum.
stances of the transactions. as alleged,
are these:
Guy Baker and J. A. Willard, the
Mankato banker. were in partnership in
the ST. Paul White Lead and Oil COM
pany, and Baker gave in part payment
for the property checks on the firm.
The statutes prohibit the conversion of
funds OF a partnership to the purchase
OF property for one of the members
thereof without the consent of the
others, and,e accordingly, the parties
selling the property had to refund the
money. AT the time it was not sus-
pected that there was anything wrong
with Bakers mind. but some time after
ward it was, and his wife was appointed
his guardian by the probate court. He
has since been sent to private SAM
tarium in Wisconsin, where he is at
present.
Mrs. Baker acted honorably in the
transactions. and was anxious, when
the facts became known, 10 have the
property transferred back, but her nus
band was incompetent to make the
transfer, and she, as guardian, did not
have, the authority. Therefore, the
only way the matter could be straight
ened out was by order of the court.
Suits were accordingly brought. she adj
mitted the allegations of the COM
plains. and the deeds have been set
aside as stated.

BANZ FED DUFFY,
And Duffy Made away With
Ranz's SneakS.

RanZ'S SneakS
Among the dodgers at the central po-
lice station Friday night was one Dennis
Duffy. Dennis is a bewhiSkered speci-
men of humanity with woe-begone
expression that incites pity. He looks
as, though the cruel world had left him
with absolutely nothing but his whsk-
ers. They are iuXGriant and copiouS,
and would arouse the envy of Esau him
self if he were on earth to behold them.
There was something in the manner
and general makeup of Dennis Duffy
that won for him the sympathy of Tailor
Mat Banz. Mr.. Banz leaves the central
station at p. IN. Duffy had come in
early-shortly after 4-and during the
two hours Mat bad learned to like him
so we'll that before leaving for the day
he prepared supper for Dennis. which
consisted chiefly of red hot wiener
wursts. Dennis reished them keenly,
judging by the rapidity with which he
devoured them. He blessed Mat for his
kindness. and vowed everlasting graft
tude 10 him.
But, alas for vows and blessings!
When Dennis left the central station
yesterday morning lie took with him a
pair Of arctics belonging to Mat. Mt.
Duffy did not leave another pair behind
him either. for ne had none to leave.

company refused to make the transfer
on the around that the stock had not
been paid for in cash. as required by the

1t Falls on Two Clerks in the Reg
lister of Deeds Office.
The Republican political ak fell again
yesterday and decapitated two tried and
faithful officials in the Office Of the reg
lister of deeds-Octave Savard and Tony
Miller. Both of these gentlemen have
been in the office for many years, and
thoroughly understood the complicated
dnties which deyolved upon them. Mr..
Savard was chief deputy under eXt
Register Charles Haas during his last
term, and MIR. Miller has been one of
the chief clerks for many years. But,
then, this is the fortune of politics. Both
gentlemen have established new en-.
terprlSe, known as the Economy Shoe
company, new feature in this city,
based on similar institutions in other
large cities. They propose to call OH
everybody in the city and make all their
old shoes new. and from this is derived
the name of Economy Shoe company.
Until the wheel of politics reyOlveS
again and places them at the top of the
heap. they will look after the UNDER
standings of the citizens of ST.; Paul in
a most reliable manner.

But Chilvan was not onto all the ram
