Comes to Collect Money.

I'm going to see what anti-English So

help US with money" returned the Arab
confidently.
The Senussi movement among the Mo-
hammedans was started sixty or seventy
years ago. In recent years it has spread
to an alarming extent. While it remains
in Africa it is likely to amount to little
more than risings such as those of the
dervishes But if ii reaches India it might
cause England grave trouble.
But wiping out Christianity in Africa
Is another matter.
