NOT ALL A D-o-NI
WORLD LEARNING TRUTH ABOUT
THE SAHARA.
Water More Plentiful Than the Ma
. tives Will Admit = Explorer
Found Many Lakes in One
Part of the Country.

Prophesying that the Sahara sand
ocean will in time he completely
changed into a fruitful territory, the
journal of the Berlin Geological So
ciety, according TO another German
contemporary. goes on to say:
The Sahara rivers all hide a rich
subterranean stratum of water, and
form the natural passage of the Sudan.
on, which, with very little trouble,
vegetation can be largely developed.
In the south of Temassinim and in
the Igharghars there are groves Of
tamarinds, gum trees, etc, two miles
in length, scarcely separated by grassy
and ciover-covered plains. The rivers.
which in spring are full of water, are
from three to ten miles wide. When
the water retreats the beds of the
rivers are changed into rich meadows.
The date seed planted by travellers
at FL Biod have grown without the
least care into fine trees, and the
same is true for the seeds planted
near the cisterns OF Tebabbalet, in
spite of the inconsiderate manner in
which the Tuarges get in the harvest.
Trees are not so rare in the Sahara
as Is supposed. Natives will deceive
travellers about the scarcity of water,
when the truth is the wells are hid
den. and the Tuarges, who serve as
guides to caravans, always choose the
most difficult and desolate routes, in
order to keep the caravans in state
OF dependency
Caravans become more frequent:
travellers succeed each other; but the
secret of the Sahara is well kept and
its reputation of barrenness is well
preserved. For example, Oscar Lens
crossed the Sahara and reached Tim
buctoo without seeing anything but
desert land, and yet he mentions that
behind a chain of hills which he
passed there was place called by the
natives The Head of the Waters. 3"
DIR. Barth. who was for four months
in Tuargey camps and was the guest
and friend of Shiek ell Bailey, was
told innumerable facts about the tradi-
tons and manners of the land, but it's
geography was hidden from him.
When he explored the region of an
arm of the Niger he found lake near.
ly 100 miles long, and when he extend
ed his excursions he found mot only
one but 20 lakes, all very large. and
stretched far to the north into the
very heart of the Sahara.

straw hats, while the ladies wore full
checked aprons and the red bandanna

Their selections were the old time mel
odes and campmeetlng songs composed

years ago. In the second part they were
not in costume and rendered solos, duets,
trios and quartettes. One of the gentle
men gave readings Of his own production.

around an open fire in a club the
other night about the taciturnity of

one man who had been telling of two
days he spent with a native woodman
in pursuit of a moose, and who in all
that time had only spoken once, and
then he dropped the undeniable fact
that their way through the forest was
a damned bad trail"
