Notwithstanding the Thanksgiving hot-

900 pounds were sold in Boston the past
week, while the prices obtained have
been higher than at any time yet on
this upward move. The London auc-
tioH wool sale opened November %, and
prices averaged 10 per cent higher than
at the September close. A small supply
of African sold to the continent at 10
per cent advance, with fine and me-
dium crossbreds at Is per cent, and
some lower crossbreds at 20 per cent
above the. previous close. Only about
$4,000 bales are to be sold, This adj

Mr.. p A. Mccain has had 10 years
actual residence in west Africa. Mr..
McCann's seven years trading and resi-
dence with the cannibal tribes of the
French Gaboon probably form the most
exciting part of his experiences. He got
friendly with them and thoroughly
studied their habits and customs. They
quite believed that the white men ate
white men as they themselves eat their
fellow blacks. A big chief offered Mr..
MeCann the smoked thigh of native.
This was considered gracious act. To
refuse it would be unfriendly. Mr.. Nc
Cam was in a dilemma.
But he feigned illness, said he was
not eating just then. The chief eventu-
ally put the matter off good naturally
by saying he supposed the white man
preferred white man to eat instead Of
black man. ''The Mpongwes, said Mr..
Mccain, "are in ferocious and pugna-
cious qualities second to no other tribe
in Africa. Their villages mostly consist
of a single street from 500 to 1,500
yards long. on each side of which are
the houses In these houses they cook,
eat and sleep and keep their store Of
provisions, the chief of which is smoked
game and smoked human flesh. hung

although ferocious and quarrelsousa
to degree, they are very industrious.
They show considerable skill in the
manufacture of pottery, and the designs
of their cooking pots, water Jars, to-
bacco pipes and palm wine bottles are
extremely artistic. In ironwork they
are also skillful workers. Although they
kill game for food, they much prefer
human meat to any other. London
