FIGHTING WITH GIANTS.
Major Austins Expedition Along the
 Anglo Abyssinian Frontier.

Major Austin's Expedition Along tht Anglo -Abyssinian Frontier.
 Among the latest joys of empire
 building in Africa are week long fght'
 with giant savages. In an extremely
 interesting account of his expedition along the Anglo-Abyssinian frontier Major Austin tells, among other things of an encounter with the Turlthana, g tribe of giants inhabiting the shores ot Lake Rudolph. One night these tribes men came upon some members of Ma | Jor Austin's caravan and killed three Soudanese soldiers.
 | A second attempt to rush the camp was after some trouble beaten off, and when the expedition moved off these gi- gantic tribesmen hung on to its skirts. | It took a month for the caravan to get clear of. their country, and during that time thirty members of the eXpedi ton died.
 The hostility of the Turkhana seems strange in face of the entirely different demeanor observed in them by the late Captain Montagu Wellby, whose useful life was cut short In the amending war.
 When this gallant officer passed throuh the Turkhana country he found that the tribesmen fled at his approach. leaving their villages entirely deserted.
 Penetrating into the bush, the captain and his party saw several Turkhana men moving through the forest. They appeared, said the captain, to be filled rather with fear and curiosity than with any intention of hostility.
 These warriors, who moved about the bush in little groups, were men of en- ormous stature, many of them perfect giants in their build. They were mag niicent specimens of sayages manhood, and all were armed with spears of un- usual length.
 The most curious feature of their per sonal adornment was their fashion of dressing their hair It fell in thick, carefully woven masses right down to the waist, forming a sort of net, in which were primitive trinkets and other ornaments. @ft aN
 As for the Turkhana women, they were so deadly frightened when they saw Captain Wellby and his men, that it was plain they thought their last hour had come. But by his kindliness, and making some little present to them each time he encountered them, the captain eventually overcome their fears, and by degrees the Turkhana women susceptible like all of their kind to the charms of the sons of Mars, lost the despairing look which had overspread their faces when they first saw the white man.
 Once, when the captain came upon party of Turkhanas, the savage giants sprang to their feet and gazed at him in profound astonishment, making no sign either of hostility or terror
 Then, all of sudden. without any visible cause, they turned and fled, leaving everything behind them but their spears.
 Somehow these gentle giants seem to have overcome their fear of white men, Star.
