near the northern extremity of that
lake, on the west shore. Thence, with
no companions except small party of
natives, he penetrated to the little
known regions far to the southwest
about Lake Bangweolo, which were the
scene of DR.. Livingstone's last journey.
Near the site of the deserted village of
Chitambo, on the south shore of that
lake, Mr.. Glave found the tree, at the
base of which the heart Of the great
missionary was buried by his devoted
followers, and on which Jacob Vain
wright-the Nassick boy, who read the
burial service-chiseled the words: CDR.
Livingstone, May 4, 1873. Yazuza,
Mniasere, Vchopere." The body, after
such embalming as the natives could
give it, was enclosed in canvas, dashed
to pole, and thus carried to Baga-
moyo, on the coast opposite Zanzibar.

Tries to Have Some Fun with His Wife
but Is Neatly Fooled.

Agreat dealo Of amusement was caused
on an east-bound electric car the other
afternoon by a waggish policeman, who
selected his wife for his victim. The
policeman had done duty at the ball
park. and his wife had been to see the
game. While the crowd was leaving
the woman stood about the front of
the park and waited for her husband
to ride up town with him. He finally
arrived, and the pair boarded a crowd
ed car. Both were young and only re-
Gently married, and they enjoyed them
selves hugely on the way.
The woman wore handsome little
gold watch, evidently present from
her husband. While half the people
in the car were looking, and while his
wife was speaking to woman ac-
quaintance outside the car, the police
man deity took the watch from his
wife's pocket and transferred it to his
pistol pocket When the car reached
18th street the policeman remarked that
it was a few minutes past 6 o'clock,
and everybody in the car looked at the
policemans wife.

asked her what the matter was. She
looked over the crowd in the car like

whispered in her husbands ear loud

spectators to hear: II have been

Women.

The position taken by women in Nor
way is very different from that which
they occupy in America. It is quite Gus
tomary for girl to act as clerk in hei
fathers office, or to help in any occu'
patton in which her talents are avaN
able. This is beginning in the risn'
direction. Home, before anything else
claims woman's attention and eli
deaver, and a girl in being her fathers
clerk is doing far greater good than u
aspiring to fields Of labor, the beneu'
of which she can only reap herself.

The accompanying cut represents the
one landmark in Darkest Africa that
has an interest for the entire civilized
world. That landmark is the tree
which enshrines the heart of Dr. Liy-
ingstone, and which is the complement,
in the wilderness of his labors, to his
home sepulchre in Westminster abbey.
This discovery is of special value,
since an effort to place tablet on the
tree ended in failure to locate it; and
the discovery was made by E. J. Glave.
Mr. Glave entered upon his work early
in the summer of 1893. From Zanzibar
he made his way to Fort Johnson, near
the southern end Of Lake Nyassa. In
the spring of 1894 he was at Karonga,

Giles about two years ago by the Butte'
County court. Giles was a prosperous,
farmer and stock raiser, living about 100
miles north of Belle Fourche, and had
working for him this man Davidson.

and told him to leave the place. Shortly.

Newark's Rig Artificial Lake.

Newark has quite a novelty in the way
of an artesian lake, formed from the sur
plus water from the well recently sunk at
that place. The well is of the spouter va
riety, and has already formed pond Of
over 100 acres, varying from four to eight
feet in depth. The water is of remarkably
good quality, being very clear and free
from alkali, or similar impurities. Appli-
cation has been made to The United States
fish hatchery for supply Of German carp,
with which to stock the pond, and the
thriving little town bids fair to blossom
into popular summer resort.
