Strange Experience With P1lantasms
In East Africa.
Die Uebersinnliche Welt of Berlin
gives an account of phantasms in east
Africa They are described by Colonel
Langfeld as having come to his expert
ence. A friend of his, starting for Vic
toria Nyanza, had said: IF any harm
befalls me I'll let you know. I'll give
you a sign" The only white civilian
there was the son of q large colonial
merchant.
Two months later the pigeons in their
cot in the middle Of the yard appeared
to be disturbed. The colonel was
aroused in. the night and saw two
round points, more like glowing Goals
than the eyes of wild beast, cleaning
from the doyecot. He fired and saw
an animal like a chimpanzee, having
long, reddish brown hair, fall to the
ground and Immediately rise and disap-
pear round the corner of the house, ut
tering terrible shrek An old Sudan
csc declared that it was a devil, that it
came as q warning when a European
had died an unnatural death and that
this was the third time he had seen 1t.
A strict search revealed no traces Of
blood, although the shot had been fired
at only four yards range. Later the
colonel, still awake, heard light foot
steps on the veranda. Rising to see
who was there, he was surprised to
find European sitting at his table,
which was fully set out for a meal. AS
the stranger raised his head in the full
moonlight he saw that it was his
friend (who had gone to Nyanza), but
hollow eyed and with a suffering mien.
The colonel managed to utter ques-
ton, when suddenly the apparition
vanished and the table appeared clear
Of all dishes. Six weeks later word
came to the station that on the same
day on which these remarkable events
had happened or seemed to happen the
young merchant had lost his way and
had been killed and partly eaten by
wild beasts.

Matches Of Size

If all of the matches made in a single

make seventy Eight matches each long
enough to reach from the earth to the

several years and would give out as
much heat energy as would be con
sumed by three freight locomotives in
a day. Forty of these, matches would
be of the safety variety, twenty three
would have sulphur tips. and the rest
