brushed aside.
Twice we got on elephant spoor, once OF
single bull, once Of a party Of three. Then
Cuninghane and the Ndorobo redoubled
their caution. They would infinitely exam
Inc the fresh dung; and above all they con-
tnually tested the wind scanning the tree
tops, and lighting matches to see from the
smoke what the eddies were near the
ground. Each time after an hours stealthy
stepping and crawling along the twisted trail
slight shift of the wind in the almost still
air gave our scent to the game, and away it
went before we could catch glimpse OF it
and we resumed our walk.
The elephant paths led up hill and down

cially where the elephant had stood and fed.
tramplng down the bushes for many yards
around. Where they had crossed the marshy
valleys they had punched big round holes,
three feet deep, in the sticky mud.
AS evening fell we pitched camp by tho
side of a little brook at the bottom of RAJ
vine, and dined ravenously on bread, mutton
and tea. The air was keen, and under our
blankets we slept in comfort until dawn.
Breakfast was soon over and camp struck;
and once more we began Our cautious prog
ress through the dim, cool archways Of the
mountain forest
On the Trail of Herd
Two hours after leaving camp we came
across the fresh trail OF small herd of per-
haps 10 or IS elephant cows and calves, but
including two big herd bulls. At once we
took up the trail.
Cuninghame and his bush people consult
ed again and again, scanning every track anil
mark with minute attention. The signs
showed the elephants had fed in the sham
bas early in the night, had then returned to
the mountain, and stood in one place, resting
for several hours, and had left this sleeping
ground some time before we reached it.
After we had followed the trail short
while we made the experiment of trying to
force our way through the jungle, SO as to
get the wind more favorable; but our prog
ress was too slow and noisy, and we re-
turned to the path the elephants had
beaten.
Then the 'Ndorobo went ahead, travelling
noiselessly and at speed. One of them was
clad in white blanket, and another in red
one, which were conspicuous; but they were
too silent and cautious to let the beasts see

cision were stained a CHASTITY white land
their bodies Enthusiastically painted.
The warriors wore bead necklaces and
waist belts and armlets of brass and steel,
and spurred anklets of monkey skin Some
wore head dresses made out of lions name
or from the long black and white fur of the
Colobus monkey; others had their plumes
stuck i'll their reddaubed hair They chant
ed in unison a deep-toned chorus, and
danced rhythnically iii rings while the
drums throbbed and the horns blared; and
they danced by us in column, springing and
chanting. The women shrilled applause
and danced in groups by themselves.
The Nasal circled and swung in pan
therike dance of their own, and the meas
ure, and their own fierce singing and call
ing naddened them until two Of their num-
Der, their eyes staring their faces working,
went into fits of berserker frenzy and were
disarmed at once to prevent mischief. Some
of the trbesmen held wilder dances still in
the evening, by the light of fires that blazed
in grove where their matched huts stood
Headed for Mount Kenia:
The second day after reaching Neri the
clouds lifted and we dried our damp clothes
and blankets Through the bright. sunlight
we saw in front of us the high rock peaks OF
Kenia, and shining among them the fields
OF everlasting snow which feed her glaciers;
for beautiful, lofty Kenia is one OF the gla-
cier-bearing mountains of the equator
Here Kermit and Tarlton went northward
on a safari Of their own while Cuninghame,
Heller and headed for Kenia itself
For two days we travelled through we'll
peopled country. The fields of corn-al-
ways called mealies in Africa-of beans, and
sweet potatoes, with occasional plantations
OF bananas, touched one another in almost
uninterrupted succession. In most of them
we saw the Kikuyu women at work with
their native hoes; for among the Kkuyus,
as among other savages, the woman is the
drudge and beast Of burden.
On the afternoon of the second day we
struck upward among the steep foothills of
the mountain, riven by deep ravines. We
pitched camp in an open glade, surrounded
by the green wall OF tangled forest, the for
est of the tropical mountain sides.
The trees, strange of kind and endless in
variety, grew tall and close, laced together
by vine and creepcr, while underbrush
crowded the space between their messy
trunks, and covered the leafy mould be-
meath. Toward dusk crested ibis flew over
head with harsh clamor, to seek their night
roosts; parrots chartered, and curiously
l,omelike touch was given by the presence
OF thrush in color and shape almost exact

ly like our robin. Monkeys called in the
depths of the forest, and after dark treefogs
piped and croaked, and the tree hyraxes ut
tered their waling cries.
A Permanent Haunt of the Elephant.
Elephants dwelt permanently in this
mountainous region of heavy woodland On
our march thither we had already seen their
traces in the 'slambas," as the cultivated
fields of the natives are termed; for the
great beasts are fond OF raiding the crops at
night. and their inroads often do serious
damage.
In this neighborhood their habit is to
live high up in the mountains, i'll the BAN
boos, while the weather is dry; the COWS
and calves keeping closer to the banboos
than the bulls. A spell of wet weather, such
as we had fortunately been having. drives
them down i'll the dense forest which covers
the lower slopes. Here they may either pass
all their time, or at night they may go still
further down. into the open valley where
the shambas lie; or they may occasionally
still do what they habitually did in the days
before the white hunters came, and wander
far away, making migrations that are some
times seasonal, and sometimes irregular and
unaccountable
: Very few Of the native tribes in Africa
hunt the elephant systematically. But the
'Ndorobo, the wild bush people of East Al
rlca, sometimes catch young elephants in the
pits they dig with slow labor and very rare
ly they kill one with kind of harpoon.
The 'Ndorobo are doubtless in part de-
scended from some primitive bush people,
but in part also derive their blood from the
more advanced tribes near which their wan
dering families happen to live, and they
grade into the latter, by speech and through
individuals who seem to stand halfway be-
tween. Thus we had with us two Nasal
'Ndorobo, true wild people,. who spoke
bastard Nasal; who had formerly hunted
with Cuninghame, and who came to us be-
cause OF their ancient friendship with him.
These shy woods creatures were afraid to
come to Neri by daylight, when we were en-
camped there, but after dark crept to Cum
inghame's tent Cuninghame gave them
two fine red blankets, and put them to sleep
in little tent, keeping their spears in his
own tent; as a measure OF precaution to pre-
vent their running away. The elder of the
two he informed me, would certainly have
fit of Mysteries when we killed our ele-
plant.
Cupinghamc was also joined by other old
friends Of former hunts. Kikuyu 'Ndorobo

who cultivated the fields that covered the
