THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1890.

passed by.
"We feel that here Tegetable life is in
cnmmunicable with our own. The giants
hare stood the storm. The snn shines on
their tops, while the mist folds itself around
their stems like a cray shroud. Ruin falls
on peoples, but they are the same, proud,
impassive, enduring.
'Ihe forest represents human life in
pantomiue the struggle for place, the in
difference to the interests of others may be
found there. "When one tree is struck by
lightning its former neighbors extend their
branches over the space it once occupied
and others spring up to usurp its place.
"Then countless parasites wind them
selves around the stem, eat into their bowels
and make excrescences. The elephants rub
their prurient hides against them and have
unsettled their uprightness. Then you see
others falling into decay with age. Around
us is a group with their dead leaves.
"Scarcely an hour passes but a tree falls
in our neighborhood. There is a crash, a
startling shock and logs come tumbling
down. But with their death is life, and as
often as. one withers end dies another hrs
spread and sprung into life.
KXBS OF TARASITES.
"During one year we noted 569 hours of
rain, equaling 1 hour of rain in every 15 of
dry weather. It seemd to us to be only one
hour of sunny brightness to one of rain and
gloom. We could observe in the forest that
the sun was out only by its effect. In the
forks of the trees are conservatories of
lichens and other plants. The stems are
wound around witn parasites, twisting
about like immense anacondas. Then there
are mvriads of living parasites. There is
not a sapling or a tree from the infant of 1
year to the hoary patriarch of 100 yearsbut
is infested with innumerable parasites.
There are thousands of threadlike filaments
around them.
"But when the Storm King rises overhead
and the blast howls through their tops every
tree seems to start into a mood of wailing
and groaning as if it were some lost soul.
During the hours of daylight, even then
these sounds are awlul; but heard at night
tneyare inexpressibly terrible. At times
the whole camp is ablaze, but it is far more
comfortable than when the rain pours over
the desolate scene in drowning showers.
"You can understand now what was in
the minds of our people, who knew not
where those endles marchings were leading
them and no soul could enlighten them as
to the future. Add to this sickness and de
- pressiou, as they tossed their dead com
panions into the dark river. Their leet
were scarred as they marched along, ulcers
appeared and bad water inflamed their
boucls and tbeir blood became corrupted.
Then the savages set on thoss who leebly

ages lay in wait and shot barbed
arrows into the wearv. In uura-

berless ways they cut off our people, with
lingering torture" or sudden as the lightning
strikes.
THE JOYFUL LIGHT.
"Finally, after 160 days of marching we
enierffed from the .oresl. Then our eyes
danced with rapture, for we beheld fresh
young grass spreading out into flowery
fields and pasture, and then beyond round
and picture-quelv molded hills. Such n
sight we hailed with shoncs of praise and
loud thanksgivings and murmurs of worship
according to our respective laiths.
"The delicious grass, the warbling of
birds, this summer loveliness of the land
and the warm life and beauteous earth re
posing in peace caused us to be lost in
rapture. Our men had dreams of joy and
they called it heaven.
"Its length was 620 English miles from
2Jorth to South and irom West to East 520
miles. It comprised 320,000 square miles,
the whole equal to 400,000 square miles.
"In the beginning of 1886 the Arab slave
trade was there. In 1870 short excursions
were made into this region, and in 18S0 two
Arab expeditions set out from the Congo on
the northeastern track. By 1887 they had
gained a footing and they built two stations,
each 100 miles apart, forming the apex of a
triangle. They began to hunt systematic
ally for slaes. For 20 miles around they
looted and burned villages.
"Before five months had passed there was
a line of complete devastation 257 miles
long. Not one village had been left stind-
mg. This was the reason that in leo7 for
several months we suffered so much from
hunger.
HEWN PATHWAYS.
"We had to hew our way through the
bush with the ax. So dene was it that our
progress was at the rate of 400 yards an hour
for many days. After several months' labor
our pace increased to a mile and one mile
and three-quarters per hour as the forest be
cause less dense. The pioneers blazed the
trees at every few yards ior our guidance.
By the time the whole column had passed
the trail would be pictty clear and would so
remain for perhaps six months. But on
some days the pioneers, despite the utmost
care, would lose all knowledge of the di
rection in which they were going. Some
times a name path would lead- them astray.
Sometimes inability to pass a creek would
comrjel them to go inland and then they
would rely too much upon their wood knowl
edge to regain the rieht direction. The
caravan was frequently wandering in the
wood for several days before it conld make
any headway on the right course.
"As we progressed further the nature of
the difficulties that beset us changed. Wc
would hear such cries irom our guides as,
'Game out to the right!' 'Look out for
swampy ground,' 'boggy cround with no
bottom,' 'elephant pit right ahead' and so
on. These warnings, while they served to
prevent us from tailing iuto pitfalls, retarded
the march.
THE KAMELESS TEOrLES.
"There would be general hilarity if I
were to attempt to enumerate the names of
the various tribes throuch whose lands we
passed. It would be far more convenient to
say that the inhabitants of the forest are di
vided into big people and little people, tall
Deo pie and pigmies. The pigmies are the
restless little nomads who wander about in
the woods, seldom tarrying in one place
long. The bigger people are much like
other Africans, but not so dark in complex
ion as the dwellers on the plains.
"Each tribe has its distinctive marks.
Some shave their heads, some wear their
hair long or in ringlets. Their ornaments
consist of crocodile.monkey or human teeth,
strung together and wornas necklaces or
bracelets, and collars of shining iron.
"Their clothing consists of a breach clout.
Their weapons are spears, bows and arrows,
broad knives and sometimes battle axes or
swords. These latter are used to make clear
ings in the woods. They are addicted to
cannibalism, but it must not be supposed
that they teed on tbeir own relatives or tribe.
2s or must it be supposed that they make raids
for the purpose of obtaining these luxuries.
Neither is a victim easy to secure. Tribes
are too far apart to render it easy of accom
plishment, but if a neighboring community
10 or 12 miles off should advance against
the village there might possibly be an 'acci
dent' and thus a body may be secured for a
social feast.
A VICTIM BEAST.
';i once witnessed preparations for a cin
. nib'al dinner. One day when nearly oppo
" site a village I fired a shot into the open air
to give warning of the approach of our flo
tilla to an Arab chief and to indicate that
it was of a friendly character. But it hap
pened to frighten a party of natives who
were about to prepare a victim for the pot
"We landed and saw stretched out the body
of a woman whose throat had been cut
Several black pots were, around, with mate
rials for starting fires, and bananas for des
sert. The body was that of a sick woman,
who had been left that morning in the
Arab's abandoned encampment"
Mr. Stanley then told of a boy attached to
the caravan who fell sick and wandered off
into the woods and whose bones were subse
quently discovered picked clean, circum
stantial evidence indicating very clearly
what disposition had been made of the flesh.
"During the many months of our march
ing in the forest," continued Mr. Stanley,
"we ninst have captured several hundred of
the small aud large native?. Thev were
Tery use'ul in giving tn information con
cerning the country round about, but when
wc once got beyond their trritory they were
ol no earthly use, and were therefore per
mitted to return to their homes, although in
many instances they did not want to be re
leased. LOWEST OF HUMANITY.
"Through ooservations of these captives
we obtained a fjir idea of their condition,
and my conclusion is that the forest races
are morally the lowest of the human race.
They have no idea of God. They are with
out tenderness or pity, and their gratitude
is so short lived that it may be compared to
the spirit shown by a fierce bulldog, who is
restrained from throttling you by a pressing
engagement to dispose of a morsel of beet
which has been thrown to him. But though
they showed themselves debased they must
not'be regarded as utterly incorrigible. Sev
eral youthful pigmirs.when taken out of the
woods, where all their habits had been
acquired, exhibited the attachment and ser
viiity ot spaniels to those who had them in
charge
"What a number of ghastly death scenes
I could describe due to the cruel persistency
and devilish malice on the part of these sav
ages. At the same time many of our men in
the presence of such dangers exhibit great
carelessness. White men displayed more
caution, but it was almost impossible to get
the rest of the men to exercise their faculties
of sight, hearing and judgment Had the
savages generally been as artful as the pig
mies we should all have been lost But,
fortunately, they were thoughtless them
selves, although cruel enough to work any
mischief upon us.
A PIGMY QUEEN.
"Our scouts frequently came across newly
formed pigmy camps, and after awhile: ther
learned the art of stalking the vicious little
creatures. The first one wc thus got hold ot
was a plump little queen of a pigmy tribe.
Around her neck were several polished iron
collars with long projecting horns at the end
and down her breast hung curiously made
native chains. Around her arms were sev
eral rings and her ankles were protected by
several scores of rings, so close together that
they resembled a compact band. Around
her waist was a breech cloth. She must
have been about 18 years old, but she was as
well-developed as a white woman of 25 or 26.
Her leet were beautifully formed, the instep
arched, the hands small, the fingers slender
and the nails filbert shaped. The face was
broad and round, the lips lull, and the large,
black limpid eyes were like those of a young
gazelle. The face was singularly, impres
sive, but the eyes were expressive and
seemed to say: I am much too pretty to
be hurt and 1 very well know what I am
worth.' The tender treatment that she re
ceived reassured her. She was ultimately
consigned to the care of the surgeon, whose
gentle manner won her from all thoughts of
flight Alter awhile she bpcame an intelli
gent cook and a trustworthy servant, and
she always bore herself most modestly.
"In October, 1888, the scouts suddenly
pounced ujftn a colony of dwarfs and suc
ceeded in capturing a full-grown adult and
his wife or sister. Be'ore the pair cosld re
cover their f iculties they were brought to
the center of our camp, where there were
hundreds of great, burly meu, among them
several tall Soudanese ranging from six
feet to six 'eet four. I observed that the
top of the pigmy man reached to about the
waist of these "big fellows. The man and
woman were considerably agitated, as well
thej' might be, and wondered what might be
their fate."
AN ANCIENT KACE.
Then Mr. Stanley described the feelings
with which they inspired him, how they
caused him to remember what had long been
regarded as the fabled stories of remote an
tiquity concerning a race of dwarls. He said
j2l
p M I ' f A
Major Jlai Uelot.
that he had no d ubtn they had had any
idea of the interest with which he regarded
them as the representntivesof aracethathad
roamed throush the African forests long be
lore the first Phoenician bark visited Great
Britain they would have felt reassured and
would have risen immediately iu their own
estimation.
"But," added Mr. Stanley, "the little man
who was now the cvnourc of the camp, with
his grotesque dignity of mauhooil, his capof
basket work, his noble amplitude of abdo
men and narrow chest, had no conception ot
the respect I entertained for him as the scion
of a most ancient ancestry or surely he would
never have trembled ior his fate. But in a
little while we succeeded in relieving him of
his fears by gently chucking him under the
chin and "administering a friendly slap on
the back. His companion, observing how
he was treated, also recovered from her
Jrighi."
Then Mr. Stanley described in humorous
language how the pigmy repaid the kindhess
of his captors by assuring them by means of
the sign language that there was an abund
ance of food two days ofj; that the river they
were in seach of was only lour days off; that
he knew where bananas were as big as logs.
compared to which the bananas be had been
eating when captured were simply contempt
ibly small. Mr. Stanley wasor' theopinion
that this particular pigmv would have made
a very good actor, and that in the art of
lying it would be difficult to give him points.
PIGMY PEOFANITY.
A few days after this capture another
group of pigmies was secured. Among
them was a shrewish old woman and a lad
so shv that he could not be made to speatc.
But the old woman talked enough for a
whole tribe and kept up an incessant scold
ing from morning to night, and exhibited a
consummate mastery ot pigmy cuss words.
Despite her age she was remarkably strong
and nimble, and always carried on her back
a hamper, into which her captor would stow
away his pots and kettles and other equip
ments until the old woman became a verit
able camel of the forest
When Mr. Stanlev came to her relief and
threw out the contents of her hamper he re
ceived for his pains an expression of grati
tude which sounded very much like "swear
words." The sby boy got over his shyness
aud became a pet of the officer who had sur
prised him, his intelligence aud industry
making him almost invaluable and far
superior to the average of white servants.
They came in time to regard the pigmies as
indispensable, and some of them would cer
tainly have been taken to Europe, but after
they got out of the forests the changed con
ditions and the difference in climate proved
too much for them. Their little legs could

the regions they inhabited and the great
which it produced.
THE MOUNTAINS OF THE MOON.
Mr. Stanley next gave an interesting de
scription of his discovery of the famous
Mountains of the Moon, which had long
been regarded as mythical. He saw them
several times, butowing to the cloudy condi
tion of the atmosphere they would some
times remain invisible for weeks, then when
the mists rolled away the snow-capped peak
would appear clear and distinct, with all the
surrounding spurs and abutments, to van
ish again when the atmospheric conditions
changed.
Mr. Stanley also described in modest
terms his discoveries concerning the est
uaries to the Albert Edward Kyanza.
"Day alter day as we marched," con
tinued Mr. Stanley, "we marked the feat
ures of this splendid primeval world,
revealed for the first time. Now
and then we caught glimpses of
Major fond.
a multitude of precipitous cliffs, which
towered some 15,000 feet above. As we ap
proached the Albert Edward we emerged
from the forest, and a vast plain stretched
before us, covered by immense fields of corn
and sugar cane. The natives ot the land,
black but amiable, collected about us and
sought our protection from incursive tribes.
They volunteered to be our guides, and led
us up a vast grassy promonotory, where for
a day we reveled in pure, cold air, and the
next day they took us down to the lake,
where we tasted the tropics once more."
Mr. Stanley went on to tell of his friendly
experiences with the tribes in that locality.
They had been especially welcomed by one
tribe that had recently been descended upon
by marauding neighbors and who thought
the expedition had come to inflict vengeance
upon their despoilers.
"From the eastern shores of Albert Lake,"
he went on, "two days' climbing brought us
to a beautiful region. The people were
divided into -two tribes, but they were de
rived apparently from a common origin.
They were a fine featured race and the men
grew very tall. They lived mainly upon
milk and sugar cane, and unfortunately for
their fnture civilization ther are massed
into nations that are ruled by despotic
kings.
THE VICISSITUDES OF THE DRY SEASON.
"From this country we struck the eastern
end of Victoria Nyanza, and by traveling
along the shore we discovered a new addi
tion to that lake of 26,900 square miles. We
struck the region during its dry season. The
grass was sere; chilly winds blew over the
uplands; a cold mist frequently obscured
the face of the country, and a very heavy
leaden sky seemed to bear down upon us in
a searching cold. Our half naked people
shivered, and one day five fell dead in their
tracks as though they were shot They
would all have perished had not the officer
commanding the rear guard bolted and
made great bonfires."
Mr. Stanley alluded to the intense politi
cal rivalry between the representatives o!
the French and English and German na
tions that ther discovered as ther ap
proached the seashore, "but as our expedi
tion was solely for the relief of Emin," he
added, "we had reason to flatter ourselres
that we had no concern with these political
animosities."
He did not enlarge at all upon the meet
ing with Emin. contenting himself with a
few casual and humorously sarcastic refer
ences to the conduct of that gentleman after
they had reached him. He greeted them
effusively and embraced all the officers of
the expedition.
SOME BEMAKKS ABOUT EMIN.
That was all he had to say of the meeting,
when he jumped to Bagamoya, where Emin
was just as effusive. "He stood between
Wissmaun and myself one moment," he
said; "then he went away and fell over the
balcony, to the dismay of the company. He
was taken to the hospital in an unconscious
state, but, recovering consciousness, we had
a kindly parting."
He told in a passing way of after develop
ments. "First Dr. Parke, who had volun
teered to attend the sufferer, was made to
feel that his presence wis irksome.- Servants
became careless. The food was stinted.
German (fiicers manifested a strong disap
proval of his presence. Then Parke fell ill
ot a fever and was conveyed to Zanzibar,
where he almost died. Our letters to Emin
were unanswered. If ne expressed a desire
to visit him at Bagamoya at once a bulletin
came out with a story of his relapse. We
tried it several times with the same result
Having succeeded in relieving himself of
all sense ot obligation to us, our association
ended. This incivility finally developed
into an active hostility.
"Emin next sought a quarrel with the
Egyptian Government He cabled to Cairo
for a small credit and a cablegram was sent
to a Consul to honorhisdralt Emin seemed
to construe this as an insult
He cabled his resignation to his old officers
and to the soldiers ol the Soudanese he wrote
frankly th.u he had nothing further to do
"Thev Have JVb ld:a or a God."
with them, and therefore those soldiers who
had been with him for 14 years alter their ar
rival in Egypt were compelled to wait six
months before they got their money.
COQUUTTING WITH THE BHITISH.
"For a wholu mouth he appeared to be
negotiating with the British Kist African
Company ior employment, and then he sud
denly took employment with the Germans.
The Germans had certainly read Emin's
nature aright, but J think they would have
succeeded belter if they had managed their
political aspirations with some portion of
the common virtues and without exposing
themselves to the contempt of others not in
terested in their politics.
"Meanwhile, seeing pretty clearly how
this was tending, I began those series of
speeches in England which finally ended in
stimulating greater attention to Africa, and
boundaries were fixed to the respective, posi
tions of the two powers. Both nations con
fess their satisfaction with the terms of the
agreement. Butl fear Dr. Peters, home
ward bound and radiant with hope, with his
pockets full of properties, and Emin, press
ing forward, but on large annexations, with
the Germans in East Africa, whose impetu
ous policy had been the cause of all this,
may disturb matters.
"So ends the serio-comic story of, Emin's
reappearance on the verge of civilization
after 14 years on the Nile. But all is well
that ends well; audit I have succeeded in
pleasing you with my rapid sketch of the
new regions that have been the subject of
this lecture, there is nothing wanting to
complete my entire satisfaction."
Mr. Stanley was warmly applauded as lie
finished, and those upon the stage crowded
about him and insisted upon shaking him
by the hand.

PASTORS' DEAD LINE.
t
The Disposition to Shelve Ministers
When at Their Best.
CHURCHES CLAMOR F0EY0DNG MEN
Preference for Students for Lair or Medi
cine Explained.
GLEANINGS PROM CHURCH FIELDS
A -lawyer or physician who reaches his
semi-centennial is considered to be at his
prime, and his services are in demand at
this ripe period. A minister who reaches
this period has come to what is known as
the dead line, and, if he has the misfortune
to be without a church, his chances for a
field of labor are very slim. Vacant
churches, as a rule, clamor for a young man
to preside over their spiritual destinies.
Age and experience count in the legal and
medical professions, but are below par in the
clerical profession.
The disposition to shelve ministers when
their experience should furnish best results,
is one of the weaK points of vour Protestant
churches. Gifted young students are often,
no donbt, deterred from entering the min
istry because of blue prospects belore them
in old age. A minister who has passed the
dead line of CO and is without a church is
of all men most miserable. When a lawyer
and physician are at their best and reaping
the fruits of education and experience,
the minister very often is begging for work.
The writer could name a dozen preachers of
his own acquaintance who led tl sir class
mates in college and yet who now are almost
without the means of li'relihood.
Western Pennsylvania Preachers.
Among the prominent ministers who
sprang from this vicinity are Bevs. Daniel
Gregg, a native of Allegheny, and John E.
Paxton, a native of Canonsburg. Both
completed their collegiate course at the time
of the great Civil War.
Young Paxton was a student at Canons
burg when tue war broke out, and enlisted
as a private under his professor, Frazer,
when it was a question -whether the United
States were able to maintain tbeir integrity
in the dark Manassas days. Young Gregg re
ceived his diploma from old Jefferson about
the time of Lee's surrender.
The latter, who has for some time been
pastor of a leading Congregational church
of Boston, has recently accepted a call to the
Layfayette Avenue Presbyterian Church of
Brooklyn, New York, the ctfurch which has
been made famous the past quarter of a cen
tury or more by the ministration of Theodore
Cuyler. With Gregg in Brooklyn and
Paxton in New York, Western Pennsyl
vania will be well represented in the pulpits
of the great metropolis.
