or light timber, and there it was de-
cided they would halt for the night.
Ii suddenly occurred to him that
there must be come other people in
the vicinity for he detected some
slight movements among the brush. A
little later the forms of several men
appeared at the fringe Of the timber
growth and in minute or two one
man stallled right out from the brush
and came directly across to where
Father Croonerberghs was standing.
This individual had some sort OF
blanket wrapped around the body, but
wore trousers. He carried, held across
the chest with both hands, rife, and
he marched in that style right up tC
within foot or two and directly in
front of the Jesuit. OF course, Father

LAST OF LONDON'S OLD INNS.

Here it was that Mr.. Dickens met
Mr.. Pickwick and the various charac-
tiers he immortalized in "Pickwick
Papers" and bounded at once into
popular favor as humorist and close
student of character. The attractive
ness of the old inn is still maintained
at high standard, and it is to-day a
favorite stopping place for travellers
and coaching parties. Nothing has
been removed from the place to dim
the memories of the past. The same
old-fashioned chairs, benches, tables
and furniture are there that were
in use century ago, and the deco.
rations have never been altered. Own
ership has remained with the same
family for many generations, and 1t is
said the present owner is a direct de
scendant OF the man who originally
opened it.

An Ambassadors Butler.

The practice of tipping is not entire
ly bad; the recipients at least derive
some benefit. A former butler of Mr..
Choate, American ambassador to Eng
land before Mr.. Reid, has built a large.
hotel on the coast on the tips he rel
ceived from visitors to the Americana
embassy, whose servants make more
money than those attached to other
embassies. chiefly because Of the num-
Der OF wealthy Americans who visit
the ambassador and scatter tips with
traditional generosity.

Travellers of To-Day Stop at Tavern
of Pickwick and Sam Weller.

New York.-A century ago London
vas noted for its coaching inns. To-
lay but one remains in London proper
o recall the gayety Of coaching par
les that assembled in the comfortable
oarlors for an evening of pleasure.
Georges inn, the last of these famous
.averns where the nobility of England
gathered in years gone by, was prob
ably the most popular that lined the
roadways of the English capital. 1t
was through his association with the
people who frequented Georges inn
that Charles Dickens began to attract
widespread attention as a novelist and
writer. More than three score years
ago he was familiar figure when rev.
elry held sway in the now antiquated
tavern.

WHAT MISSIONARY FOUND IN
THE NYANZA COUNTRY.
Rev. Croonerberghs Surprised by Ma
tive of Cork While on Exploring
Tour in the ln$erior-His 16
Years Among So RACES.

New York.-Apropos of the oues-
ton, so much discussed NOWADAYS Of
elective representation and a parlia-
ment in the boer lands of Africa, it be-
comes only natural to recall the condi-
ton OF the country and it's various
tribes and people not so many years
since
Even down to the period of it's prim-
tive settlement under British rule,
less than 40 years since, the popula-
ton of the civilized whites was much
less than a thousand, while the terri
tory covers over 100000 square miles,
and the tribal population ran by rough
estimate as over $4,000.
No doubt there may have been some
missionary spirit within the region at
some prior period, but it remained for
a member of the Jesuit order to ex-
plore the territory thoroughly and his
mission was inaugurated in 1868.
In that year Rev. Charles J. Groom
erberghs, S. j., with several compan-
ons, traversed several thousand miles
rom point little above Cape Town,
through North Africa, up to the region
Of Victoria Nyanza, making notes all
he way of the country and its various
groups of inhabitants
Father CrOonerberghs spent some Is
)r 10 years among the various tribes,
travelling nearly all the time and liv-
.ng among these semibarbarous peo-
pies more or less as one of them.
So well did these ignorant natives
believe in him as a man of peace that
n all the years he lived among them
lot even once was he subject to I'M
kindness, but on the contrary, he was
looked upon as one entirely beyond
their pale and was made an object of
affectionate regard and veneration.
Father CrOOnerberghs when he
turned his steps away from there in
1884 was master of II different and
guages.
Of keen observation and possessed
of an extraordinary natural descriptive
mind, his tales were above ordinary
interest
His description of the Nile region
and more particularly of the great
Victoria falls was minute and graphic.
The story of his entry into the Ny
ANA country is worth repetition.
He and his companions had been
travelling for weeks and months prior
to a certain day on which in the early
morning they calculated they would
ere the evening reach the point OF
destination. So it was on late that
same evening they found themselves
near a growth of heavy underbrush

First Requisite for Success.

AT the annual convention of sales
men OF large corporation prizes were
to be awarded to those who submitted
the best reply to the query: What
are you going to do to increase your
sales for the ensuing year?" After
numerous comments and remarks had
been made, telegram was received
from the one absent salesman whose
attendance had been unavoidably pre-
vented by pressure of business. On
being read to the assembly he was
unanimously voted first prize. The
telegram read: Shall hustle like the
dickens"
