and warlike tribe called the Arbore.
Wfthout any warning the party one

Inns and letting fly their arrows. Like
the Borans, they knew but simple

tribes would don their war paint and
feathers to receive the explorers, but
O friendly and at the same time con-

party through. The very idea of a
small band Of men marching straight
trough a country teeming with hostile
tribes seemed nothing less than mi
raculous to the native mind.
After more than IL months Journey
ing Lake Rudolf was reached on July
IA, 1895. A journey around the north
ern end OF the lake. which DIR. Smith
made by land and Mr.. Dobson accom-
piished In little collapsible Berthon
boat, disclosed the fact that the Nj
anann Is the only river emptying into
the lake and that there is no river
Bass, as supposed by Count Telekei.
The lake did not appear like a long
sheet OF water lying in an abrupt cut
ticfpated. On the contrary, ii was
much spread out except at its southern
end 1t lies in a shallow sort of basin,
in an open country. The southern end
OF the lake marks the rather abrupt
termination of the great mountain sys-
tenn extending north from Mount Ken
va. He found the lake to vary in
depth from two to rs feet, its elevation
being 1.200 feet above sea level. The
party marched 200 miles down the lake,
and had a very severe time.
DR.. Smith expressed himself as well
pleased with the results of the expedi-
ton, both from the geographical and
natural history points of view. OF 700
birds brought home "a have been de-
scribed by Bowdier Sharpe of the Brit
ish Museum as being new to science,
and there are several new reptiles, be-
sides many mammals, butterflies and
plants which have not yet been COM
pletely classified.

7 HE MARKE rs.

New York. April 25.-To-day's stock
market was above the recent half-holiday
average in point of activity. The course
of prices was reactionary, chiefly in
sympathy with sugar. The unqualified
success of the Northern Pacific reorgani-
cation and intimation of favorable pro-
gress in several other properties served
to bring the railway list out of the rut
in which ii had been held.

Where Men Are Careless.

Edward Box writes upon when
Men Are ThOughtlesS' in May Ladies'
Home Journal, directing attention to
"the singular fact that the American
man, who is the best and most
thoughtful husband in the world,
should yet be peculiarly thOughtless
as to the future of his wife and chill
dren in the event of his death"
Mr.. Box fOrcibly contends that the
husband should have his affairs in
such condition that in the event of
death coming to him. his wife and
children, or those dependent upon
him, would not suffer. In this con-
nectiOn he says: Il firmly believe
thai it is the duty of every man to be
insured. With insurance policies to
be had at such low rates as is at
present the case, there is scarcely
man who cannot afford some sort of
a policy. no ma; oer how small an
amount it may call for. What seems
to the man himself in good health as
a small amount for an Insurance pol
icy, often turns out TO be modest
fortune to the woman or children
who survive him. l wish, sometimes,
that the taking out of an insurance
policy on the part of the husband, for
an amount according to his means,
might be made an obligatory part OF
every marriage ceremony. l know
whereof l speak when | say that
there are hundreds of women in the
homes Of this land who are daily
carrying with them the fear that
their husbands or fathers are neglect
ing or forgetting to make suitable
provision for them as widows or or
phans. They shrink from speaking
to the men of their homes about the
matter. No man can afford to neg
lect a simple duty which may mean
all the difference between happiness
aud misery to his family. Suitable
provision for them he cannot allow
himself to put of, for surely it is
true that in the midst of life we are
in DEATH
