THE roar of a lion can be heard
farther than the sound of any living
creature. Next comes the hyena, then
the screech owl, the panther and the
jackal, in succession. The donkey can
be heard fifty times farther off than
the horse, and the cat ten times
farther than the dog. 1t is strange
that the quiet and timid hare, when
she cries in fear, can be heard farther
off than either cat or dog.

The relief stations furnished a
large number of people food yes

that without food furnished by this
means the Hawaiians would have
been placed in rather a difficult
and delicate position. Those in
charge of the various stations are

and should be thanked for the ar
duous duties performed.

LIST OF SUBSCRIBERS.
In view of the fact that cholera is
becoming more and more prevalent
each day and that sooner or later
many of the poorer classes of Hawai-
ians will be in sore distress, it has
been thought best by many promi-
nent people to circulate request for
voluntary subscriptions to form a
fund that may be placed in compe-
tent hands to purchase food and cloth
ing for all those whose condition may
be worthy of same. Therefore we the
undersigned do pledge ourselves to
subscribe the sum set opposite our re-
spective names for the purpose above
stated.

year sent out from 5000 to 5000 men,

riorS of the country, and invariably
come back victors. They force the
weaker nations into subsection, kill
all the old men and babies, and
return with women, boys and cattle
as the spoils of war. The women
are given to the soldiers as their
slaves; the cattle go to the king.

boys are trained to become soldiers,
and they in turn go out to fight for

are fast dying out. They are cow
ardly and lazy, and are being driven
to the sandy tracts of the southwest
coast by the Ba-N'Thu race, which
comes from central Africa across
the Zambezi. Of this race there are
some twenty different nations or
tribes. The Hotentot and Ba-N'Thu
races represent the two native races
of South Africa.
In the first photograph one Of the
kOranna tribe is shown attired in
European clothing as he might have
appeared in the southern portion of
British Bechuana. The Enclosure is
intended for cattle, and the rude hut
beside it is the dwelling place, made
of upright sticks covered with dried
grasses. The Stanley hat and linen
suit is not a part of this mans every
day habiliment, but is one of the
things for which he would trade al
most anything he possessed.
Of all the Ba-N'Thu race, the
strongest people are the Matabele
Zulus, the same people who were
lately conquered by the Royal Char
tered company. The two warriors
in the picture are types of strong
men. They are of magnificent ply

not allowed to use them, because
they are not permitted to touch a.

the cultivation Of the land devolves

than formerly.
The fourth picture, representing the
natives standing upon a raised plat
form erected in the middle of the vii

are defending their lives and their huts
against the attacks of lions.
The Ma-Toka territories extend over
the district between the central course
OF the Zambezi and it's left continent

country lions are fierce and plentiful.
Night after night they attack the vii

nearly all of the villages the high plat

into this village one day, found the
natives huddled together in this way,
expecting the lions. The platform was
perhaps thirty feet high, ten feet wide,
and twelve feet long. 1t held three
men, four women, and several chill
dren. A lioness had been killed a
few days previous, and her skull they
willingly exchanged for an empty cart
ridge box, which they utilized for
snuff. Each village is partially pro-
tected by high poles, which form a
kind of palisade, but in such sandy
soil they do not offer much resistance
to the attacks of lions and other wild
beasts, The huts as pictured are bell
shaped and covered with dried grasses.
