SEA FISH IN LAKE.
Strange Discoveries In Central Africa by
Explorer Moore.

The problem of how the apple got
into the dumping sinks into insight
ficance beside that of the jellyfsh. the
crustaceeans and Lac Tanganyika !;
but ]. E. S. Moore, who has just come
back from Central Africa. believes he
has discovered how the fish from the
seq got into the lake in the middle
of the continent Mr. Moore is one of
the young men at the Royal college of
science, South Kensington. He was
leader of an expedition largely sub
sidized by the royal Geographical
society. and after year march OF
over 3, 600 miles, from the Zambesi to
Uganda, he has come back with hun
dreds of specimens and several import-
ant additions TO the knowledge of Cen
trail Africa He has encountered can
nibals, volc lnoes and glaciers and scaled
an ice-clad peak called "Sitchwi = in
the RuwenZori mountains, or Noun
tains of the Moon, at height of about
10, 80 feet. The mountain took ten
days TO climb. The peaks of the range
are covered with ice to a depth of hun
dreds of feet, for the snow melts in
the day and freezes at night. Mr..
Moore and the twenty Ujiji boys
who accompanied him lived on goats
during the ascent and descent, driv-
ing the goats and killing them when
food was wanted. The Ujiji boys were
so struck with the phenomenon of ice
| that they tried to carry bits down TO
Ujiji. The tropical sun nearly boiled
the ice ON the way. Between Tan
ganyika and Lake Albert Edwards is
lake called Kivu The best atlas
published gives it as about e-tenth
the size of Albert Edwards. Mr..
Moore, who was accompanied by Nal
colin Ferguson, geologist and geo.
grapher, found that Kivu is larger than
Albert Edward The north end of
Tanganyika was found to be fifty miles
westward of its sscribed position. 1t
was between this lake and Kivu that
| the cannibals were met. They are tall,
| light-colored men, more like Arabs
than Negroes, and are born thieves
They gave much trouble and killed two
or three bearers, but Mr. Moore never
had to fight them outright The pri-
mary object of the expedition was to
ence to the marine forms which Mr..
Moore found there four years ago.
The question was whether the jelly
| fish and crustaceans originally got into
Tanganyika by way of the Nile or the
Congo. Having determined that these
marine species are to be found in none
of the lakes north of Tanganyika, Mr..
Moore believes that Tanganyika was
| once joined to the sea by way of a
great basin in the Congo State. When
J Tanganyika was left high, if not dry,
/, in the center of Africa, the jellyfish
and crustaceans of the sea remained
| behind and their descendants are
furnishing today. They have been
there many thousands of years. for
fossils they resemble are to be found
below the chalk letel

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 9.-W. ]. Bryan
gives out the following statement con-
corning the election:
1.-The result was surprise to me, and
the magnitude of the Republican vic
tory was surprise for our opponents
as we'll as TO those who voted our
ticket 1t is impossible to analyze the
returns until they are more complete,
but speaking generally we seem to have
gained in large cities and to havo lost
in smaller cities and in the country.
1.-The prosperity argument was prob
ably the most potent one used by the
Republicans. They compared present
conditions with the panic times Of 1913
TO 1895, and this argument had weight
with those who did not stop to consider
the reasons for the change. The appeal
stand by the president while the war
Is on had great deal of influence
among those who did not realize that a
war against doctrine of self-govern-
ment in the Philippines must react
upon US in this country. We made an
honest fight upon an honest platform.

we have nothing to regret.
