Central Africa, to places where whites
had never gone before.

Central Africa, to places where whites
had never gone before.
Landing on the coast, not far from
the Equator, they gathered a large
party for the adventure-10 rifemen,
"a Seedee boys and lis porters. The
"Seedee boys" were African natives.
Half of them deserted before the end
Of the journey, and all except two
Of the Negro porters gave up their
jobs along the way. Eleven mules and
five donkeys were used to carry heavy
pieces of baggage.
After four months the explorers
reached the village of Kazeh, where
they were delayed 81 days because of
river floods, and because so many of
the porters had deserted.
Obtaining new porterS, the Eng
Hshmen made their way westward
across the mountains. Progress was
slow-they covered only 80 miles in
rs days.
At one point in the journey they
visited a native chief whom they
called king Rumanika."
He stood six feet two inches" said
Grant, in an account he wrote at
a later time, land had a mild ex-
preston. His five wives we're of enor-
nous size, unable to enter the door
of an ordinary hut. Their diet con-
sisted of boiled plantains (bananas)
and milk. The King lived on milk,
the juice Of boiled beef and a very
little plantain wine"
Grant became i'll and had such
trouble with one of his knees that
he had to be carried on a stretcher
much Of the time. The natives were
kind to him, giving him presents of
fowl. buttermilk and sugar cane.
Sometimes they offered him fried
grasshoppers and freshly fledged
white ants" but in such cases he said,
mo, thank you"
In the region of Lake Victoria,
Grant and Speke visited the King of
Uganda in his capital city. In writ
ing about Uganda, Grant said:
mo flour or milk Is used in the
country, the natives living entirely
on plantains boiled or made into wine.
The natives are extremely musical
and their instruments were well
played, especially small harp"

ROMANCE LIVES
ON FLYING
TRAPEZE

Oh, he floats through the air NTH
the greatest OF ease,
The daring young man on the
flying trdpese.
With graceful maneuvers 40
feet up in the great tent Of the
greatest show on EARTH" he
thrills the young ladies and makes
their hearts do duoble-quick time
Rs he smiles down on them from
his great height.
This daring young man on the
flying trapeze" is Ed Rooney, a
veteran circus performer, who
comes to Washington tomorrow
with the Ringing Brothers and
Barnum and Bailey show.
Eds Own Romance
To Ed, the song about his pro-
fession is the best of comedy. He
loves the Tilt of the thing and it
makes him feel good that his art
has been put into song.
The lyrics, which have an un'
oanny habit of changing every
time they are sung, even have
some bearing on his own life. For
the song tells of a daring young
man on the flying trapeze' who
enchanted a young lady from the
circus. Well, Rooney and his lady
went to the altar, and now she Is
flying through the air with the
greatest of ease"
AS it happens, Eds wife was a
circus performer when he met her
She was already an expert trapeze
artist. But she was thrilled by
Eds Somersaults and toe swings
in the heights, of the tent.
ii; So It's Ed and Jennie
And so the act is now known as
Ed and Jennie Rooney.
The song tells that the daring
young man on the flying trapeze"
thrills all the girls as he FLOATS
through the air with the greatest
of ease"
But Jennie doesn't mind that.
Like the trouper that she is, she
says she's glad of it. That's his
business and he had better do it.
And they both proudly state
that the trapeze very frequently
swings into the path of matri'
mony. There are dozens Of mar
gied couples swinging together on
&apeZeS in circuSeS.
Ed is also very proud OF his
Wife's artistry on the trapeze and
Is always eager to tell that there
are things she does that no other
person in their profession can
accomplish.
"The Riding ROOneys"
Jennie does a single under the
great tent and after going through
a series of backward diSloca.
tions." she hangs on the rope by
her toes, which Ed proudly points
out is a feat nobody else in the
world can do.
Ed comes from a family of cir
Gus performers. His family were
known as the Riding RooneyS"
in the old days. And Jennie did
a sister act on the trapeze before
she met Ed.

city officials. The many inquiries
led to the issuance Of the statement

The bank robbery was the first In

G. A. Arduser. cashier Of the bank,
in describing the robbery said that

were shortly joined by the third ban
dit. After deploying themselves about
the lobby they ordered Arduser. Ben
johnson, q farmer, and Elmer Nagel,
q mail carrier, customers Of the bank,
to the floor with:
"Get down on the floor. This Is
q holdup. Nothing will happen to

The two employees and customers
were herded into the vault and the

Arduser said the men worked cody
and quickly. He said two Of them
were clean shaven and none wore
masks. Outside Of cryptic instruc-
tons, nothing was said and no vio-
lence was threatened other than the
command to obey orders.
Arduser said he thought the bandit
car headed south out Of Marion to-
ward LaMoure. The robbery was con-
Quoted with such precision that no
one outside the bank was aware of it
until the bank prisoners freed them
selves from the vault.
