EVEN SHUT OUT SUNS RAYS
Myriads of Flies on African Lake Form Column Through Which
 Light Cannot Penetrate.

Crossing Victoria Nyanza, Messrs F. II Melland and D. Fl. Cholmeley. Che authors of Through the Heau of Africa, saw a phenomenon which although common on the lakes Of central Africa, seems extraordinary enough.
 The chief engineer on coming down late to luncheon, told us that he had seen a waterspout near by. As we had finished our meal. we hur ried up on deck Co get a glimpse Of it. We saw near the southern nOri. zon a gray smoke-like column arising from the surface of the lake. and ex. banding into what looked like a cloud above. Thinking that it must be the engineers waterspout wo approached Captain Gray and Mir Akeley, whc were also intently observing 1t, and asked them lf we were right in our conjecture.
 "Waterspouti" said the skipper with a smile Tiles"
 "Flies?' we repeated, and turned to Ar Akeley in the hope of getting from him more iutelligible exblan atiou
 Quite true" he said. "Tlies Haven't you seen the lake fly be fore?"
 'NO." we Tetorted. "we haven't; and ve didn't know that it flew"
 Assuring us that r,.ther he nor th5 skipper had any intention of deceiv Ing ms, Mir. Akeley explained that he referred to the Insect known as th, lake fly and not to any spasmodi, frivolity on the part of the waters o Victoria Nyanza. The apparent wa terspouC was nothing more or lest than a huge cloud composed O. myriad5 of tiny flies They some times rise from the surface of tn, lake in such dense columns as to ob scure the light of the sun like a pill lar of smoke.-Youth's Companion.

came interested in this portion Of

He looked over the country and lik-
ed it and was especially pleased
with the prices. He made some
purchases and kept IL touch with
the country. He needed some work
done by lawyer and this led at
an acquaintance with attorney L. A.
Walker Afterward when the gov
ernment land sale was held he and
Mr. Walker made some purchases
together. They bought lands at
from $5.2j to $10.25 per acre that
happened to be in the best part of
the field. They leased 90 acres in
section s and took down in cash
500 900 apiece and a royalty. They
