keeping a careful lookout TO see that
no one should lose his life simply be
cause Mwamba had died. Members
Of the ruling family repeatedly went
to the white men and reasoned with
them. Mwamba certainly needed
women to cook his food in the othe"
world. He required slaves TO brush
away importunate flies and wives to
offer him the tribute of their adula-
ton. 1t fact, everybody who had been
connected with his court should be
inundated on his tomb or buried alive
in his grave. Surely the white men
would not punish the petitioners for
following the custom of the country
or paying due honor to the dead. But
the stern white men were unyielding
IF you kill a single person." they
said. ION account of the death of
Mwamba you will pay the penalty
with your lives"
One of these visits to the British
occurred ten months after the death
of the chief.

you buried your chief yet"
How can we bury him when you
will not permit us to give him any
companions? If we should bury
Mwamba simply as an ordinary NOR
tai he would avenge himself upon us
and bring terrible calamities upon
the eountru."
They were informed again that If
any effort was made to provide
Mwamba with an escort they would
form a part of it. Fourteen months
passed and the body was still wrapped
in cloth awaiting interment A depu-
tation was sent to the British to make
last appeal.
"Mwamba, our chief, has now been
dead many months and his body is not
yet buried, We beg OF you to let us
bury with him at least few slaves"
No"
Then, at least just a few OF his
women"

mo, no, and once again, no."
There was nothing to be hoped for
from the infexible British. About
the same time the report began to be
spread among the people that the chief
would be very well content to make
the journey into the other world
alone This is what actually hap
pened. The body was buried without
the usual sacrifice, to the great salts
faction of the majority of the people,
but to the profound humiliation of the
ruling family.
Some hundreds of lives were saved
by the determination to prevent this
butchery on the grave of the dead
man.

has been unfavorable for the stack

weather However, the rain was very
beneficial to corn, and although the
nights were unusually cool, the crop
continues to make great advancement.
Frost did some damage to corn and
potatoes on the mornings of the 18th
and 18th in the northern section, but
no damage resulted in the middle and
southern sections. There is a notable
difference in the tone of reports OF
the apple crop, which shows a much

The rains have placed the soil in good
condition for blowing in most coun-
ties, but delays the working of the
marshes. The temperature continues
unusually low, the nights being ex-
ceptionally cool; frost occurred in
the northeast section and caused
some damage, but nothing of a serious
nature. Moderate rains occurred

Her Fierce Struggle With the Brazil

Garibaldi says; Nothing of much
Importance happened to Anita after
that time except continued dangers
caused by the war, in which her only
food was meat and her bed the

that she made the dreadful trip
through the forest of Las Antas with
her baby strung in a handkerchief
about her neck, trying, by breathing
on it, to keep it from freezing. The Re-

obliged to retire from the siege of the
capital and make long, toilsome re-

beasts even in the fairest of seasons,
but now the rivers were swollen into
raging torrents by the rain. and the
/ only means of transportation was a

rained necessarily for nine days; pro-
visions became scarce and many died
of starvation and exposure. Here the
brave Brazilian almost lost her cour
age. When it became at all possible
to move forward she was mounted on
the only remaining horse, with her g.
months old babe tied about her neck
Garibaldi remaining to take care OF
the few mules and helpless people
left to him-and in despair pushed
ahead. She finally reached the edge
of the forest. and almost tainted with
! joy when she discovered a little band
of her husbands men who had made
fire in a clearing and where gathered
about it. They Immediately made
room for her and one of them took
the apparently dying child from her
neck, wrapped it in his poncho, which
/ he had warmed at the fire. and soon
/ revived it. Then, and only then,
after all the long days of extreme
suffering and danger, tears came to
the eyes of the brave mother. Carl
baldi afterward referred to this Jour-
ney as the most terrible he had even
known.-Lena Lindsay Pepper, in

the middle of the week sufficient TO
check the stacking and threshing, but
resulted in benefit to the corn. The
northeast section is still deficient in
moisture.
Notwithstanding the weather is
against the rapid advance of corn the
crop makes steady and thrifty growth.
The ears are well set and are in the

The second crop of clover is ready for

Marshes continue very wet. Early
varieties of potatoes show heavy

there is some complaint of blight in a

The tobacco crop is being rapidly

The tone of reports of the apple

however, still continue poor. The
