ladder Tree" Is His
Monument After Death

The one ambition of Joe Fender' S
life was to grow a tree that every
body would talk about long after
his death; and for the past twenty
years he has devoted his time and
efforts to the production of a peculiar
looking tree that was recently "un-
yelled" as his monument following
his death in Freemanville, N. Y.
Early in his task, Vender built a
high fence about the tree of his

to year as. the tree grew. At his
death a request in his will authoriz-
ed the tearing down of the fence.

Kennedy is the newly-elected door

the new congress, Kennedy is the
man who will announce loudly and
proudly:

African Jungle Lions Save Woman's
Life When Travelling IN South Africa

Mrs. D. E. Halden, a nurse who
has travelled extensively throughout
South Africa, tells a thrilling story
of how she called jungle lions to her
assistance when threatened by KAT
frs who wished to take her back to
their village as their doctor, and
marry her off to one of the sons of
their chief.
The story, told in the underworld
Magazine, is as follows:
was travelling through the
Transvaal to southern Rhodesia, and
driver, Mjapa, youth Of seventeen
or eighteen, for company.
We had travelled miles over the
lone veldt under scorching sun and
cloudless sky, along the White
trail, resting in the heat Of midday
and at night, Starting next morn,
the crests of the scattered blue
kopjes, we passed "Sulfur Springs"
and about ten-thirty drew near to a
big Kaffir Stad.
Our arrival seemed to cause a
slight commotion among the huts.
Barely was our meal over when
several of these old men came in a
BY giving advice while on my
journeys, I had made myself a name
among the scattered villages, and it
seems 1 had been recognized, for
they came to consult me about an
outbreak of skin disease which they
said was driving them mad. Having
solemnly questioned them, through
the medium of aM'japa, recon-
mended bathing in the hot springs,

meat in favor Of milk and vegetables.
and the removing of the Stad to a
higher location in the hills.
gathered that my advice was
considered very good, and that they
intended following it, but now they
requested me to come and stay
among them as doctor. This was

band elsewhere, and could not prom

around, to send snake-doctor to

ed with him for a time through
Mjapa, and when he became a little
threatening told him to go. Finally,
we drove away, fully determined to
take the longer and more dangerous
trail by the Brak river on my re-
turn.
After four hours unbroken journey
into the cool of the afternoon, [ or
dered the outspan at the big water
tree (Baobab) on the Matamba trail

I was just thinking of inspanning
when over the hill we had last
rounded appeared six buck Kaffirs
at a run. They were a considerable
distance away, and occasionally were
hid by the scrub and though it was
not an unusual occurrence, yet some
thing warned me this was not a
friendly visit.
Instinct collected and quickened
my thought. L knew that the bush

and, bending over the hollow in the
rock, gave the 1ionesses' mating cry.

could not afford to consider that,
knowing that if I failed there was
for myself, quick glance around
having revealed more buck Kaffirs
higher up the hill, and CLINT Of
spear-heads.
The nearer Kafflrs were now only
some two hundred yards away. Run
ming down the slope, and laughing
mockingly at what they considered
my feeble trick, they were shouting
exactly what was going to happen to
ness, and bent quickly over the hol-
low for the final call, but it was
not necessary.
From the bush to east, west and
south rose wild tumult of answer
ing calls from male lions, some from
between the two groups of running
natives. Those fartherest away

the nearer bucks did, turned and
| fled to the cart. Never did 1 cover
ground so quickly, and never shall
I remember how I scrambled into
the cart.
M'japa had, with sublime trust in
Mazimba (myself), started to inspan
Kaff1rs. accomplishing in some scant
seven minutes a job that had never
taken him less than twenty-five min
utes before. BY the time the lions
answered my call he was holding the
plunging mules with all the power
Of reins and brake, both, fortunately,
new and strong.
We drove away at top speed. north

ately, the wind was from the north.
In spite of the tremendous speed
and the jolting of the cart, I turned
to watch the trail behind US. The
nearest Kaff1rs had also turned back
at the first lion call, and must have
fled directly among the animals.
I decided. after ALL to come back
the same way. rightly as it proved.
Passing the big water-tree, we came
upon a few scattered bones, the re-
mains of the six Kaffirs. bleaching in
the dazzling light Of the sun. and
round about the dwarf bushes the
soil was disturbed. AS we drew
alongside the great Stad we found it
in the silence of utter desertion.
Faint spirals of blue smoke ascend
| ing from the hot ashes at the fire
places made me decide not to out
span here. SO we pushed on for two
hours farther; in fact. to within three
hours of sebassa. Having seen the
relics of the lions feast, we knew
that the Stad did not stand empty
through my advice.
No white man will move the bones
because. as they lie there, they spell
safety for numbers of white women.
No black can be induced to touch
them.
