When Sir Henry NJ. Stanley met the
lost missionary explorer he had been
sent to find ia little lakeside village
in Africa, thousands of miles from
civilization, and the only white man
in the region, he lifted his hat, and
said, as politely as he might have done
on a city street, Doctor Livingstone,
l presume?" When the story WAS
told everybody saw the unconscious
humor Of the situation, the New York
Sun says. Everybody laughed over 1t,
and then forget 1t until it was recalled
to the explorer himself ON stately
occasion.
After his return to England from
the relief of Emin Pasha, when HON
ors of all kinds were being heaped
upon Stanley, Cambridge University
summoned him to commencement to re-
ceive from her the honorary degree Of
Ill. D.
The senate-houSe was crowded, the
recipients Of degrees Of honor were
numerous and of great dignity. The
Duke of DeV0nshire, chancellor Of the
university. conferred the honors, and
up in the gallery the undergraduates,
In accordance with q tfme-honored
custom, guyed each dignified recipient
as he came forward in hood and gown
to receive the parchment creating him
an honorary doctor of the university
ana to hear the public orator sound his
praises in formal Latin phrase
They stepped up, were saluted and
passed by In their turn, and at last
came Stanley. AS he moved forward
to the rostrum, shrili, piping voice
from the short-gowned youths in the
gallery inquired:
''Mr. Stanley, presume:
Chancellor, public orator and even
Stanley himself joined in the roar of
laughter which swept through the SEN
ate-house.
