"Most of the natives are fond of mu-

tribes possess very elaborate musical
instruments. These include antelope
horns and wooden horns covered with
animal skins and are used for cere-
raonial and other dances"
The natives also use wooden and
iron clappers and iron rings upon their
ankles, which make an odd sound dur
ing the dance. Some of the dances
are the ceremonial, in which they
initiate the natives into the secret

New Industry on Coast.

Quite an extensive crawfsh indus

part of California, with San Diego as
the center. The state has enacted pro-

there is no protection, and vast
amounts of them are caught off the
rocky coast. They are shipped to nu-
merous points on the coast farther
north. Many persons cali them lob

Pygmies Are Net Shy.
1--WE discovered the first pygmy at
Avakubi, and he was prisoner on a
charge of having killed man with q
spear. Contrary to the general idea
the pygGies are not shy. They are a
trihe suspicious, but after they make
your acquaintance they are not unlike
other tribes of native Africans.
THE pygries live by hunting chief
ly and frequently bring in antelope
and other game to the villages, which
they are glad to exchange for food.
They are quite expert in tracking
games and shoot everything with bow
and arrow. Onthe track of big game
the chiefs, women and children all
join in the pursuit until the animal is
captured. Sometimes they will give
a tip to other natives about the dis
covery of game and then when the
hunters bag is filled they will demand
a share of the trophy.
AT one time we arrived at vii
lage of 200 pygmies and witnessed a
characteristic pygmy dance. The pyg-
mics dance in circle to the accom-
paniment CT the beating of gong, and
