'Widah is a kingdom of Africa, on
the coast of Guinea, and TO the west
of the Gold Coast, extending about ten
miles along the sea-" said the poet
laureate of all.the Pascagoulas yester-
day at the Cosmopolitan 1T is a
populous country. well supplied with
large villages, and there are so many
small ones that they are not above a
gunshot from one another. The
houses are small, round at the top,
and encompassed with mud walls or
hedges. together with a great number
of all sorts of beautiful and lofty
trees. which afford the most pictur-
esque prospect in the world. insomuch
that those who have been there repre-
sent il as a perfect paradise. The
fields are always green, and they cul-
tivate beans, potatoes and fruit; nor
will the negroes let a foot of ground
remain uncultivated. They SOW again
the very next day after they have
reaped The inhabitants are greatly
civilized very respectful to each
other, especially to their superiors,
and very Industrious The women
brew the beer, dress the victuals and
sell all sorts of commodities at the
market. Men who are rich employ
their wives and slave in tilling the
land and carry on a considerable
trade with the product The chief
men have generally forty to fifty
wives. the principal captains three or
four hundred, and the king four to
five thousand They are extremely
jealous. If any one happens to touch
any of the kings wives accidently he
is doomed to perpetual slavery.
1t is no wonder then that the women
are not fond of being the kings wives,
and some of them will prefer a speedy
death to such miserable life. They
have no distinction of hours. days,
weeks, months. or years. They are
such gamesters that they will stake
all they have at play. not excepting
their wives and children They have
a vast number of idols. and they defy

tiful. There are many elephants, buff
faloes, tigers, several kinds Of deer
and sort of rabbit. The fruits are
citrons. lemons. oranges. bananas,
tamarinds. etc. and they have vast
numbers of plain trees. from which
they obtain wine. Their trade consists
of elephants teeth, wax. and honey.

THE DIsRAELI CENTENARY.
London Celebrates The One Hun-
dredth Anniversary Of
His Birth.

London. Dec. 2I.-The one hun
dredth anniversary of the birth OF
Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beacons-
field, the great author and statesman,
was celebrated today in London. and
in the chief cities of the provinces.
where largely attended meetings of
journalists, literateurs and public
men were held in commemoratlon OF
the event.
Benjamin Disraeli was born in Lon
don. December q, 1904. He was early
articled to "a solicitor, but the druid
gery of a lawyers Office being distaste-
full to him, he turned to Literature
and in 1927 he published his novel
.syiyian Gray which was succeeded
at intervals by other works of fiction.
After visiting Italy, Turkey, Greece
and SYRIA. he returned TO England TO
find the country involved in the Re-
form Bill agitation. After three I'M
successful contests he finally succeeded
in winning q seat in Parliament. Ii
was not until Is49 that he began 70
attract notice, and not long afterward
he became prominent as the leader OF
the Young England Party.
For seven years the Liberals remain
ed in power, and Disraeli, ia opposI-
tion, displayed talents as a debater,
and a spirit and persistency under de-
feat, which won for him the admira-
tion of his opponents. When Lord
Derby returned TO power in 1866 Dis
raeli became Chancellor of the Elk
chequer. Two years later he succeeded
Lord Derby as premier, but in the
face of a hostile majority he resigned
shortly afterward. In 1878 the popu-
larity of Mr.. Gladstone rapidly sub
sided aud Disraeli returned to power
as prsme minister. In 1877 he took his
seat in the Upper House as Earl Bea-
confield In 1880 his government was
defeated in the general election and
Mr.. Gladstone again returned to
power Earl Beaconfield died the fol
lowing April.

Glasses in Swimming,

Among other forms OF outdoor sports
consideration by the mems gymnasium
classes of the Y. NJ G. a. is swim
ming in the North Branch of the Sus-
quehanna. This is popular and health
ful exercise and is useful as an accom-
plishment which may lead to the saw
ing of life. Swimming however, has
never been popular with adults i'll Dan
vile, Notwithstanding that the North
Branch at almost any point furnishes
excellent bathing grounds.
Physical Director Carpenters idea
is to organize a swimming class of the
men aud boys who belong TO the gym
nasium classes during the winter. He
may not attempt anything very diff
cult in swimming, but he feels conf
dent that he can give to all q fair
knowledge of the rudiments of the
science, developing confidence and lay
ing the foundation which with suffi
cient practice will enable the man or
boy to become an expert swimmer.
The swimming proposition, however,
encounters difficulty in the Borough
ordinance, which prohibits bathing
within the Borough. The inference
might be that this related to the Gus
tom of boys bathing nude and that
there would be no objection 10 anyone
disporting in the water properly clad
as at the summer resorts. Tie ordin-
ance, however, is und Qualified and
sweeping. Section lst under the head
of Nuisances' reads:
1t shall be unlawful for any person
or persons to bathe in the Susquehanna
river, Pennsylvania canal, Mahoning
creek, or in any stream or public place
within the limits Of the Borough of
Danville. Any person or persons who
shall violate any of the provisions of
this section of this ordinance shall for
felt and pay fine of five dollars for
each and every offense."
Professor Carpenter says he will not
be deferred by the ordinance but will
take his classes properly clothed in
bathing suits at some distance up or
down the stream or more probably on
the opposite side of the river where
they Will be out of the Borough's
jurisdiction.
