7 n ERBERT LANG, who has re-
- turned to civilization with the
largest collection of specimens
of animal life ever acquired
in Africa, saw a good deal of the pyg-
mics in the interior regions of the Bel
gian Congo, where he spent six years.
He was in charge of the Congo expedi-
ton of the American Museum of
Natural History. Altogether it is es-
timated that the members of the ex-
petition gathered more than 10000
large specimens for the museum and
the collections in the aggregate
weighed as tons.
When Mr.. Lang and his associate.
James P. Chaplin, arrived in Africa
they first established headquarters at
Stanleyville with aI equipment includ-
ing II tons of supplies, which they
packed into loads of so pounds each
for transportation over the trail lead
ing into the forest. With the assist
ance of the Belgian government the
explorers secured 200 native porters
to carry their packs and started out
on the journey from Stanleyville to
Avakubi, which was accomplished in
about twenty-one days.
Our chief difficulty" said Mr.. Lang,
with reference to the equipment of the
expedition, was caused by the ex-
IRENE humidity of the forest, to which
our supplies to a certain extent were
exposed. Whenever our expedition ar
rived at village in the Congo the
chieftain of the tribe usually greeted
