The gigantic baobab tree of central
Africa. the trunk of which sometimes
attains a diameter of forty feet, often
serves as a natural cistern, retaining
rain-water In large quantities in a
cavity formed at the top of the broad
trunk. Taking the hint thus afforded
by nature, the Arabs artificially hollow
out the huge baobabs and fill them
with water during the prevalence Of
rains. as a provision against the dry
season. These cisterns are in many
cases twenty feet in height and eight
or ten feet in diameter.

Wanderer, in his confession, told how he hired an unknown young man to stage d fake robbery at his home. Then he shot and killed both the hired youth and his bride, an expectant mother, using two guns and dropping one be- side the robbers" body. He gave as his reason that he did not wish to be encumbcrcd by a wife and. worse yet" the expected child. He planned to re-enter the army. At first police believed the story he told that he surprised the robber who shot Mrs. Wanderer and that he then killed the intruder. When both guns were traced to Wanderer, how ever, he confessed Until he went on the wild rampage. Wanderer had been the kindest of husbands. Just before he slew his wife he took her to a movie. Police have found a young girl, Julia Schmitt, who had gone out with the .JekylT-Hyde'' Wanderer several times, believing him to be single. She says he treat cd her with utmost courtesy. He re- ceived United States and French dec orations for distinguished war serv- ices.
