REALIZING
RHODES DREAM
RAILROAD BUILDING GOING ON
IN AFRICA.
The Cape-to- Cairo Road Has Recently
Advanced Another Stage in Its His
tory-From a Commercial Point OF
View, Many Of the New African
Roads Are a Good Deal Of Bluff.
New York Mall.

Wednesday, amid great public enthusi-
asm, the first thru train for Victoria Falls
over the Cape to- Cairo railway took its
departure from Cape Town. Its arrival
will complete another stage In the march
of Cecil Rhodes sublime idea of COM
mercial empire under the British flag in
Central Africa. The magnificent cataract
Of the Zambesi Is not in itself point OF
great commercial importance, but it has
for many years impressed the worlds
maginat ton much as Niagara did when it
was merely a great natural wonder In a
painless Wilderness. And the fact that it
is now possible to ride to it on a standard
gage railway in a Pullman car will also
strike the sense of the worlds millions in
q way that the completion Of the line to
Buluwayo Of the Wankie coal mines could
not.
Cecil Rhodes himself raised the capital
upon which the line. has been completed
from Buluwayo to Zambesi, and he had
provided the funds for its construction
thence thru northeastern Rhodesia to the
southern tip of Lake Tanganyik. This
means nearly a thousand miles more Of
railway building thru a wild country,
which, however, offers no great engineer
ing obstacles. When that point is reached,
Cape Colony will have rail communication
with the very heart of darkest Africa,
as East Africa already has by way of the
Uganda railway to Lake Victoria NyanZa-
less criss-crossed with railway lines. 1t is
possible to go direct by rail from Cape
Town to Reira, on the Portuguese coast.
by way of Buluwayo-a distance of 1000
miles. Branch lines extend to Gwanda,
Wankie and other mining points, and one
was opened not long ago to Matoppos
where Rhodes was buried. It Is all, COM
mercially speaking, magnificent piece OF
bluff, for the financial returns are as yet
slight. 1t is nevertheless a legitimate part
of the "empire builders' magnificent
dream. Doubtless it will all come true
| if time, is given it. But the conditions
regulating the Cape-to-Cairo project are
far from realizing those which essentially
governed our Pacific railroad building-the
condition, namely, of running from a good
country, thru a good country, to good
country" Even the golden Transvaal halts

mains with but a handful Of whites In ar

AN ACROBATIC POLICEMAN

Rides After Auto ScOrcher and Leaps
Into His Machine.
Philadelphia Inquirer.
Stewart Brown, a wealthy automo-
bilist from Gotham, found the lower
Merton roads too tempting to resist
scorching, and he was taken before
Squire Brook and fined $40 and costs,
not, however before obliging Officer
Shay to do little acrobatic work. =
When Officers Shay and King or
dered Brown to stop, he slowed up,
but showed no signs of stopping. The
two police were on horseback When
Brown continued to go on Shay
spurred his horse ahead of the auto
mobile, then, springing off, he leaped
into the auto.
Officer King rode up and took
charge Of Shay's horse, while the lat
ter stayed in the. auto and compelled
his prisoner to go to Squire Brook
At the squire's office the New York
er did not conceal his anger, but he
paid the fine.
Officers King and Shay also arrested
Cadwalader Washburn Kelsey OF
Chestnut Hill on charge of scorch-
ing. Mr.. Kelsey had a very impor-
tant engagement, and as he gave the
officers his card and promised upon
his "honor as a gentleman to appear
before Squire Brook and pay his fine
he was permitted to go on.

PITY IS FELT
FOR THE GAR
HIS NERVOUS STATE is SHOWN
BY THE BIOGRAPH.
A Pathetic Representation of the Gear
Is : Shown in London-Nervous
Movements Shown at the Blessing
Of the Officers Departing for the
War.

| London-Night after night pathetic
representation of the car Of all the Rus
sias is shown on the biograph at the
Palace theater.
| One can look right into the czar's face
can gaze closely into his sad eyes,. One
can almost follow the train of thought
that prompts his various motions.
| First one sees this little, tired car at
the blessing of officers departing for the
war.
| Priests in gorgeous vestments perform
the rites with graceful movements, and
the long limbed officers come striding UP
easily and carelessly.
But the little cZar shifts from one leg
to the other, glances at the toes Of his
boots, attends anxiously to the set Of his
sword, as tho he had never hung one at
his side BEFORE or hurriedly smooths his
mustache.
Now and again he thrusts one of his
white gloved fingers into his left eye, and
then looks at his glove as tho in search
of piece of dust.
And strange to say, this last nervous
movement of his is repeated on every
occasion, and in every set Of circum-
stances in which one sees him. ..
He is drinking the health of depart
ing regiment, and he shifts from leg to
leg as he stands beside the table on which
is set out the wine. Again he glances
apprehenS1Vely over his shoulder: again
he sees to the set of his sword; again
he smooths his mustache, and again he
sticks his finger into his eye and looks
for the extracted grit. 's
He takes the glass of wine raises 1t
and looks into it gravely, as tho death
| might Turk there. Then, with a sudden
movement, he straightens up and drains
| it to the dregs. g..
| A moment later he is again shuffling
aimlessly around the table.
| Next the little black-bearded man in
the tight tunfc and baggy trousers is re-
ceiving the returning heroes of the Variag
And again he shuffles about in his big,
high, wrinkled boots. -
| Later he reviews troops Of all arms on
the great square of St. Petersburg.
| Thls time he sits on a calm and stately
charger, but his nervous movements in
the saddle are as noticeable as when he
is on foot
Then he vanishes, and he has not smiled
once. The audience has watched quietly,
there has not been suspicion of an.
plause.
From the grand strains of the Russian
national hymn the orchestra changes it,

SWAMP TRIBE

Can Hardly Walk and Members Spend
| Lives In the Water.
! New York Sun.
! A tribe that can hardly walk has been
discovered In New Guinea. So unused are
! these people to walking on the solid
ground that their feet bleed when they
try to go any distance. They were dis
covered by Sir Francis P. Winter recently
| The tribe is that Of the Ahgaiambos,
and since time immemorial they have
lived In swamps, their houses being
perched on bamboo poles and elevated
about twelve feet above the mud and
water. .-, s-.-
! AS a result, since there Is no solid
| ground anywhere near them, generation
| after generation Of these people have de-
pended entirely on canoeing and swim
| ming. They are such good swimmers that
| they can glide over and between the half
submerged reeds like water snakes, and it
| Is as natural for an Ahgaiambo to slip
into the water to go next door as 1t is for
a woman in this country to throw q
| shawl over her head and call on a neigh
| Dor. -. -: s.~
They never leave their swamps, but re-
| main hidden in them from the time they
are born until they die. They are as shy
as the crocodtles and reptiles that dwell
| there. ~.
This life has changed their bodies so
that they look unlike any other human
their legs have become small and fabby,
and their feet are so soft that blood flows
from the cracking skin as soon as they
are called on to tread on hard ground.
Sir Francis Winter describes these be-
1ngs as follows, in report to the
Australian government:
THE men would be Of good stature if
their bodies, from their hips down, were
In proportion to the upper part They
nave good chests, thick necl1s and power
1ul arms. But from the hips down they
were shrunken creatures, looking more
like apes when viewed from the side than
like human beings
Their feet are short and broad, and
wonderfully thin, with weak toes They
are SO feeble that they look almost as If
they lacked joints.
THE feet Of all the people whom T saw
rested ON the floor when they stood or
sat in a way that reminded one irresisti-
ply of wooden feet. because they were so
helpless and clumsy"
