18th century. Said Mr.. Talbot
1.-THE bush, with its soft green twi-
light, dark shadows. and qtfivering lights,
is peoped by many terrors. but among
these ole or witchcraft, reigns SUI
preme. Should the suspicion of witch
craft fall upon any one, only trial by or
deal can free them. The most usual one
is that of eating esere, a poisonous bean
which almost invariably kills the sus-
pected person. The ordeals of boiling
oil poured upon the palms of the hands
and of peppercorns inserted in the eyes
are far less dreaded. not only because
their results are practically never fatal.
but because they are less intense than
that caused by esere."
One of the most interesting discoveries
was that of the lake of the Dead in the
Oban country.
'TThe name of the lake" said Mr.. Tai
bot. occurs In many of the tribal songs.

bush we could see the edge of sheet
of water. along the banks of which were
the holes or crocodiles. whose tracks
covered the shore The scene was a
weird one; the surface was absolutely
still, and round about were 10-foot high
tufts of creamy flowers. These however.
proved to be nests of tree frogs.
1.-THE place is a sanctuary for all wild
things. for no hunter would dare to pene-
trate the bush to this dreaded spot. AS
we stood at the edge gazing out over
the water its quiet was suddenly broken
by broad ripple, and little fish were
seen to spring agitatedly above the sur
faces. great python was crossing. and

diles the guardianship of the Sacred

Describing a visit to district where
all the houses were built of ebony, Mr..
Talbot said:--

and grewsome-looking pot, the sides of
which were ornamented with iron hooks.
Before this. about breast high. and the
length of a man, was a kind of altar,
made of stout ebony blocks. In front
of our tent door was tall carved pillar
ornamented with strings of human skulls.
The people all had the filed teeth and
thin, shrunken appearance which are al
ways associated with cannibal rites, and
although they one and all stoutly denied
knowledge of anything of the kind, every
one of our carriers said that not only
was the pot in the little hut meant for
the sacrifice of human victims, but the

Sheldon Tells Senate Committee
OF the Hartman Contribution.

Washington. July 25.-George r. Shell
don. treasurer of the Republican Ma
tional Committee in 1905, today told the
Senate committee investigating campaign
funds his version of the late Edward II.
Harriman's contribution to President
Roosevelt's campaign. in 1904
Mr.. Sheldon said he knew unofiicially
that J. r. Morgan & Co. and Henry C..
Frick were contributors, in 1904. The
late Cornelius II. Bliss was treasurer
then. but Mr.. Sheldon was associated
with him in an unofficial capacity. He
could not remember the amounts which
the Morgan firm or Mr. Frick gave, In
1904, but classes them among the large
contributors to that campaign.
Senator Painter asked Mr.. Sheldon to
tell what he knew about the Hartman
contribution.
"About two weeks before the election"
began Mr.. Sheldon. Gov Odel. who was
state chairman, came to Mr.. Bliss. then
treasurer of the Republican National
committee. and stated whereas it was
perfectly clear that Mr.. Roosevelt would
be elected the state ticket was In doubt.

UNDERWOOD DEMANDS QUORUM.
House Leader Serves Notice of Block

Washington, July 25.-Determined at
all cests to maintain a quorum in the
House, Majority Leader Underwood

block hereafter all attempts of mem
bers te he excused on account of pri-
vate business. His purpose was re-
vealed when he objected to consent be-
ing gis on to Rep. Switzer of Ohio, Re
publican. to absent himself 10 days. He
later withdrew his objection but gave
warning that he would show no Ienien-
cy in the future.
Mr.. Underwood's objection to Mr..
Switzer,s request came as a complete
surprise. The majority leader made his
position clear, however.

sis. that so far as | am concerned on
account of business in the House and
the necessity of a quorum being pres

for unanimous consent for leave of alb

But the important business for a man

sutuency to represent them on the floor
of this House is for him to attend

IL was learned here. Wednesday

Nebraska statesman be installed as
one OF the Governors chief advisers
but he win also take to the stump and
endeavor TO tell the voters why the
ma1 who at one time wanted him
knocked into a cooked hat should be
elected President.
Just imagine Mr.. Bryan chasing Col

demanding that he tell all that he

Colonel Bryan will visit Governor
Wilson a few days after the New Jer-

On the contrary, Mr. Bryan will be
taken right into the bosom of the
Governor. He will cure here as
house guest, and will stay one and
probably two days, and if he and Gov
e:nor Wilson have not fixed up the
plans of campaign by that time he
may stay a little longer.
Mr. Bryan. as it is understood, has
agreed to bear the brunt of Governor
Wilson's fight on the stump, the plans
being to have him follow Colonel
Roosevelt wherever and whenever the

PHOTOGRAPHY FOR TOURISTS.
II Is Still Worth While for the
Camersts to Preserve What They
See.

To what extent the postcard industry
throughout the world has affected the
activities of the local view -photogra-
pher. and of the transient cameriSt, Is
only too well known. Nevertheless.
even after having obtained a complete
assortment of pictorial postcards of the
city or locality he is visiting. the tour
list photographer generally makes his
own views, and in a manner CORE
spending to his own methods of inter-
pretation-w permitting. 1t is
often Impossible for the tourist
to take the same pains. or work
under as favorable weather conditions
as does the local photographer. and
when. ON his return home. he compares
his results with the beautiful and tech
nicaliy perfect postcards of the same
subjects, which he has purchased, he
is often inclined to cast aside his own
individual efforts.
The camerist who Is personally con-
Quoted. and is travelling according to
a fixed schedule, has no choice as to the
time of day. and must accept the
weather as he finds 1t. And Europe
seems to be the domain of Jupiter Plu-
vius during the travel season. If he
Journey alone. or with friends, he may
be ablo to adjust his stay in certain
places to the prevailing weather condi-
lions. He must be prepared to encoun-
ter unexpected rains and. therefore. the
itinerary should be planned on an elias
tic scale. Many famous landmarks
which lie in the path of ordinary travel
in the old countries defy the camera
after eight o'clock in the morning on
bright sunny days, whereas other al
Turing subjects are photographed best
in the afternoon. OF course almost any
open-air subject is favorable to pho
Biography in diffused light, /. G.. when
the sky is overcast. If, for instance.
the tourist allots three days TO Ores
den. and it should rain nearly all the
time, the sun may shine on the day
after his departure. Or, part of the
time the weather may be favorable to
photography, and an additional day.
rain or shine, could be spent in visiting
sights under cover, the picture gallery
or the Green Vaults. What extra time
he adds to Q. Gtay in photographed
ly attractive locality may be deducted
from the visit to a place which offers
little or no attractive camera material
How much better. then, is an itinerary
that permits the camerist to make
pictorial record of his journey which
on his return home will afford him
much pleasure instead of keen disap-
pointmeut.-PhotoE ral.
