to further national effort in conserva'

have been chosen to discuss the ef'

lists and agriculturists been invited to

members of this very important body
will be an important factor In the
congress. To what extent the specific

the session has created much interest
among prominent men of the eastern
states who are identified with the
movement to establish reserves in the
Appalachian and White mountains.
Letters have been received from all
over the eastern states approving the
suggestion and expressing the hope
that the matter will be scheduled for
discussion at the Sacramento meet

A STORY OF LIVINGSTONE.
Explorer Won Admiration Of Power
ful African Chief.

Francois Coillard, for many years a
missionary in Africa, told an odd story
of David Livingstone, the famous ex-
plorer. Coillard was staying at vii
lage In Bechuanaland. One morning,
hearing a noise and unaccountable agi-
tation, he ran out of his hut to find the
place invested by the Makololos, under
Sebitomane, mighty chief. Living
stone, who had a sjambok in his hand,
felt so indignant at the pillage that,
seeing a man crawling out of one of
the huts. he brought down several
blows on his back, which made the
Sebitoane himself He rose, seized
Livingstone in fury by the hair and
threw him to the ground.
Warriors ran up and their assagais
were about to pierce Livingstone,
when Sebitoane stopped them, saying:
Let him go, he is a stranger and
white man Then, looking straight
at him, he said: You have courage
you are brave man. Never before
has any one dared to strike me. Liv-
ingstone then understood for the first
time whom he had attacked. You are
strong" he said, and peace was made.
Livingstone gave money to Sebitoane
and Sebitoane gave Livingstone five
oxen.
Seven years later Livingstone and
the chief met and joked together over
the incident you are a strong man"
said Livingstone, ito have taken me

his back and said: And you are a
famous warrior to have attacked all

so many tribes. Look at this mark.
You are the only man who has ever
beaten me-"
