Mr.. e. NJ Newman, the traveller and
lecturer, will be heard in his third travel
talk, Zanzibar" next Sunday evening
at the Columbia Theater. Following are
a few Of the principal facts which he will
relate:
ZANZIBAR is an island Of coral formation.
forty miles of the coast of German East
Africa. about forty miles long and
twenty-seven miles wide. the highest alti-
tude being about 100 feet above sea level.
ZANZIBAR, the city. has about 100000 in
habitants, composed OF native Swahilis,
.Hindoos, Arabs, Goanese, and whites.
Zanzibar Is ruled by Sultan, under
the protection of the English govern
ment. although Mohammedan. the Sultan,
has but one wife.
An American consulate was established
in Zanzibar In 1895 to take care of our
growing interests there. The only rail
road and the electric light plant are the
property of American capitalists.
The prevailing religion Is Mohammedan,
but Parsees and Hindoos also flourish; in
fact there are so many Hindoos that
they have erected a burning CHAT, which
Is lighted almost daily. The Arabs are
the ruling class, and own almost all the
land on the island.
