The Indomitable Stanley Sends a Graphic Account of His Progress and Research. TERRIBLE SUFFERIXG ENDURED. Sir Frincia tie 'Wintm, Chairman Of ths Eanin Pacha ReliefCoramittee, makes public the letter which he received April 1st from Henry M. Stanley. It is dated Bungangeta Island, on the Aruwhimi, Angut 2S, 18S8. After confirming his short dispatch of Auutt 17th, already published, announcing that he had te lieved Emin, Stanley proceeds to relate the story of bin movements from June 2S, 18S7. lie says he had established a pallirad e camp at Ynmbtipa, on the lower Aru-' w himi, just below the first rapids, and appointed Barttelot commander. On the arrival of the men and goods from Stan ley Pool and Bo I o bo, the officers were to te;xirt to Barttelot for duty, bnt no im portant action was to be taken without consulting Messrs. Jamieson Troup and Waid. The odicers admitted that the instructions were explicit and clear. Bar telott hitd 2"7 men. lie was to slay at Yatubuya until the steamer arrived from Stanley Falls with men and goods, and ifTippoo Tib furnished the carriers be promised, he was to march, following the track blazed out by Sanley's advance column, If the carriers did not arrive, B-irtelot might disregard these directions and liegin short journeys until Stanley should come down to his relief. Stanley's column set out June 28, 1SS7, from Yatubuya with 3S) oHic-era and men. Ou the first day the Datives they met fired their villages and began fight ing. The skirmish lasted only fifteen minutes. The natives continued for five days along the march to impede the ad vance in every way they knew of, but not a man of Stanley's party was lost. The jiarty reached the river again on July 5 ami from that time till October IStli fol' ed the left bank. After 18 days continu ous marching, they halted one day for rest. On the 24th day they lost two men by desertion. They made only foar halts in July. On August 1st the first death occurred. It was from dysentery. They now entered a wilderness, which it took nine days to march through. l-KFT.RIXiS IXCEEAsr. Their sufferings began to increase, and several deaths occurred. The river heljw eil them, as the ranoes relieved the men of much of their burdens. August 1.1, on arri ing at Airsib.a the natives attacked thetn, and five men were killed by poi soned arrows. Lieut. Stairs was wound ed near the heart, and suffered greatly for a month before recovering. On Au gust 15, Jepson, commanding the land party, got too far in and was lost. His contingent rejoined the main party on the 21st. On the 15th they arrived In the district of Airjeli and camped for awhile opposite the mouth of tributary Nepoko. IiESPBTEUS GET AWAY. On August .11 tbe party fell in with a caravan of Manyema under I'ledi-Baly-ns. This was most unfortunate, as Stan ley had taken the route he did in order to avoid the Aral. As expected, sever al of his men were tampered with by the Arabs, and.within three days 2 bad de serted. On September 1.1th Stanley ai rived at camp opposite Vgarrowas. Ho could not rely on friendly relations with tbe chief and finally made a trade with him, leaving SO sick men with him and $." a month apiece was to be paid the chief for taking care of them. Three days later Stanley left I'ga rowas, and on October IS reached a settlement belong ing to Kilingalongh, a Zanxibarese slave of Abid Bin Salim, tbe fierce old Arab who has made so much trouble in the Congo State. AH AWTtT. MONTH. Stanley saya ; This proved an awful month. Not one member of our expedi tion, white or black, will forget it. Out of the 3S9 men with whom we started we oaer SOIERSET, PA., WEDNESDAY, lost 't by desertion and death between Yatubuya and Ujrarrowas, and left SO sick at the Arab station. On reaching Kilingalongi we found we bail lost 56 more inert by starvation and desertion. We had lived principally on wild fruit and nuts. Abed Bin Salim's slaves did their utmost, short of open hostilities, to ruin the expedition. They induced the men to sell rifl. and clothing, so that when we left we were beggared and the men nearly naked. We were too weak to carry the boat and 70 loads of g -!-), and we left thetn at Kilin.iloni under Surgeon Parke ana Captain Nelson, the latter of w hom was unable to march. After marching 12 days we reached Ib wiri. The Arabs had devastated the en tire country so that not a native hut was standing between Ugarrowas and Ibwiri. What had not been destroyed by slaves of Abid Bin Salim the elephants ruined, so that the whole region was turned into a horrible wilderness. But at Ibwiri we were b?yon I the utmost reach of the de stroyers. We were on virgin soil, in a pop ulous region ab mu ling with food. Our suffering from hunger, which began on August :51, terminated on November 12. Ourselves and men were skeletons. 0,it of the 3) men we now numbered o tly 174, and several of these now .had ni hope of life left. A halt was ordered for the people to recuperate. Hitherto they were skeptical of what we had told them. The suffering had been so awful, the cala uities so numerous, the forests so endless, that they refined to b-tieve that by and by we should see plains im I cat tle, aal the Nyanza, and the white man, E nin l'aclia. We felt as if we were drag ging them along with a chain around our neck. "B'vond these hardship," said I, lies a country untouched, where fxd is abundant, and wheie you will forget your miseries ; so cheer op, bovs ; be men ; press ou a little faster," Tliey were deaf to our prayers and entreaties, for, driven by hunger and suffering they sold their rides an le j lip nents for a few ears of Indian corn, deserted with the ammunition, ami were altogether demor alized. Perceiving that prayers and en treaties and mild punishments were of no avail, I then resorted ti vnitin; u;jn the wreu lies the death peua'.ty. IXFUCIiSu THE HEATH I'ENAt.TY. Two of the worst cases were accord ingly hanged in the presence of all. We halted H days in Ibwiri, and reveled on fowls, goats, bananas, corn, sweet p da totM, yams, beans, etc. Tiie s ipplies were inexhaustible. The people glutted them selves. Tue result was that I lia 1 173 sleek and ni Mtly robust men when 1 set out for Alliert Xyanxa on November 21. (One man had been killed by an arrow.) We were still 12i miles from the lake, but with fod such a distance seemed as nothing Oa December 1st we sighted the open ciuntry from the top of the ridge, which was named Mt. Pisgah, be cause it was our first view of the land of promise and p!entr."" December Mh wrr emerged on the plaint, and the gloomy, deadly forest was behind us. After 100 days' continuous gloim, we saw the light ofdiy, making everything beautiful. We thought we had never seen grass so green or country so lovely. The uten leaped for joy, and ran with their burdens. A PITCHED BATTIX. At Kilongasongas, on December 9, we caine. to the country of the powerful cheif Mazambrine. The natives sight ed us and were prepared. We seized a hill as )on as we arrived in the center of a mass of villages about i p. m. on Di-cero-ber ".occupied it, and built a jureba of brushwood as fast as we could cut it. The w ar cries were terrible from bill to hill across the valleys. People gathered by hundreds from all points, and war horns and drams announced the struggle. We checked the first advance of the na tives with a little skirmish anil captured a cow, the first meat we hud tasted since leaving the ocean. Night wore on, and passed peacefully. In the morning we opened a parley. The natives were anx ious to know who we were, and we were equally anxious to glean news. They said Mazouiboni only held the country for Kahbarega, who was their real king. They finally accepted cloth and brass rols to sliov Mazomboni, and hostilities were suspended until morning when Maz omboni sent word that we must be driven from the land. The proclamation was greeted in the valley with deafening cheers. Their word Kinwani signifies peace and Kurwana war. We hoped we had heard wrongly, therefore, and sent our interpreter nearer to inquire. They responded ' Kurwana," and emphasized it with two arrows fired at him. Our hilt was between two valleys. I sent 40 men under Lieutenant Stairs to attack the natives in one valley and 30 uader Jepson into the other valleys. Stairs crossed a deep riverin face of the natives, assaulted the first villace and took it. The sharpshooters did effective work and drove the natives back up the opposite slope nntil the fight became general. Jepson also drove the natives in front of him. We marched straight up the val ley, driving back the people and taking villages as we went- At 3 p. m., not a native was visible anywhere except on one small hill a mile and a half west. THEY SIlillTEP SYAV7-. On the morning of the 12th we con tinued onr inarch. During the day we had four little fights. On the loth we marched straight east, and were attacked by new forces every hour until noon when we halted for refreshments. At 1 p. Tt. we resumed our march and 15 min utes later I cried : " Prepare for sight of Nyanza." The men murmuted and sa d: " Why does master continually talk this way? Nyanza, indeed. Is not this a plain, and can we not see the mountains T' But 15 minutes later, and, after our four days' march, the Albert Nyanza was be low them. All came to kiss my hands in recogniztion of my prophecy. Our position was 5.200 feet above the sea, the lake over feet lelow us. We were then in I degree 20 minutes latitude. The south end of the Nyanzi lay map ped out about six miles south of this Kition. We were attacked during the night, but drove the attackers away. At 9 o'clock next morning we reached the village of Kakongo, bnt were unable to make friends with tbe inhabitants. They would not be friendly because, having never heard of a white man, they feared we would scare their cattle away. They wouldn't aiivpt any presents, or indeed have anything to with us, though tbey were perfectly civiL They gave as wat er to drink, but nothing else. Tbey set ESTABLISHED 1827. showed ns the path and we camped half a mile from tbe lake. My couriers from Zanzibar evidently had not arrived, or Emin Pacha would have arrived at the southeastern shore of the lake. My boat was 100 miles distant and there was no tree in sight large enough to make a canoe. On January 7 we were in Ibwiri again, Lieutenant Stairs being sent to Kilongal ongas to bring stores. Only II men were brought into the fort out of 38 sick, the rest having died or deserted. Soon after Stairs's departure I was attacked with gastritis and an abeesa on the arm. I re covered, and after 47 days set out for Al bert Nyanza on April 2, Captain Nelson was lt.'t in command of Fort Redo. A LETTER FRO KM IN ru II. One day's march from Nyanza the na tives came from Kavali saying that a white man named Malcjja had given their chief a black packet to give to Stan ley and asking him to follow them. Thev remained that night, telling won derful stories, which convince! Stanley ttiat this white man. was Emin Pacha. The next day they met Chief Kavali, and he handed Stanly a note from Emin Pacha, which was to the effect that, as there had been a rumor that a white man had been seen at the south end of the ; lake, he bad gone in his steamer to make I inquiries, but hail been unable to obtain I any reliable information. However, he ! had heard that Stanley wa in Mozam- bonis country an I he begged him to re ' main where he was until he could com municate w ith him. The note was sign ed " Dr. Eaiin," and dated March 2H. The next day, April 20, "a strong force bxik a boat to the Nyanza, On the 2ilth they sightel Muwa station, tbesouthern raost belonging to Euiih Pacha, and were hospitably received by the Egyptian garrison. They were failed as brothers. EMIN A.Vn STANLEY MEET. Stanley then continues: "April 20 we once again reached th bivouac ground occupied by us on December 1(5, and at 5 p. M. of that day I saw the Khedive steamer seven miles away steaming to ward us. Soon after 7 r. M. Emin Pacha and Signor Casata and Jepson arrived at our camp, where they were heartily wel comed by us. We were blgcther nntil May 2o. On that day I left him. Four teen days later I was at Fort Bodo, w here were Captain Xylson and Lieutenant Stairs. The latter hud returned from I'garrowwas 22 days after I had set out' for the lake, bringing wi.h him, alas !ti men out of oil. All the rest were dead. My 20 couriers whom I bad sent with letters to Major Barttelot hail safely left Ugarrowwasfor Yambuya. On March 10 Fort Bodu was nourishing, nearly 10 acres nniier cultivation. June 10 I left Fort Btslo 111 Zanzibar and 101 of Emin Pacha's jieople. The garrison consisted of 50 rifles. I had deprived myself of all my officers in order that I should not be encumbered with baggage and provi sions and medcints, which would have 4u be taken if accuuipaai led by European , and every carrier was neccessary for the vast stores which hud been left with Barttelot. June 24 we reached Kilon galongas. and July 10 Ugarnwas. The latter station was deserted. Ugarrowwas having gathered as much ivory as he could obtain front that district, and pro cecdeo. down the river three months be fore. August 10 we overtook Ugarrow was, with an immense llotilla of 57 ca noes, and to our wonder our couriers were reduced to 17. They related an awful story of hairbreadth escapes aud, tragic scenes. Three of their number had been slain, two were still feeble from their wounds and all but five bore on their bodicsthe scars of arrow wounds. August 17 we met the rear column of the expedition at Banalya, Bonney met me and told me of Barttelot's death and that Jamieson had gone to Stanley Falls for more men and Mr. Troujw had gone home sick. THE FOIMKS WIIECKED. "I found the rear column a perfect wreck. Out of 357 men only 71 remain ed, and out of these only 53 were lit lor service ami were mostly scarecrow s. Ac cording to Bonney, during the 14 months since I left the record had been one of disaster, dissertion and death. Many of the details seem incredible. There re mained still far more stores than I can carry, at the same time articles needful j w ere missing.

Referring to Emin Pacha, Stanley says the Pacha has two batullions, one of 750 men and tbe other of 040. He is keeping up a line of rommnniition along the Nyanza and the Nile, aliont ISO miles in length. In the interior, west of the Nile, he retains three or four small stations. He has with him about S.000 people in cluding women and children. On May 1. 1SSS, Emin Pacha came ashore from his steamer and had a long talk with Stanley. Emin Pacha said he bad decided that it was best that his par ty should retire from where they were. The Egyptians were willing to leave. But of the regulars composing the two battallions, Emin had some donbt as to their willingness to leave. Tbey had led such a happy life and woold demur at leaving a country a here they bad enjoy ed luxuries they cannot command in Egypt. The soldiers are married and sev eral have harems.

At Fort Bodo I have left instructions to the officers to destroy the fort and accompany the Pacha to Nyanza. I hope to meet them all again on the Nyanza, as I intend making a short cut to the Nyanza along a new road. Signed. "Henry M. Smm.fy." All Sorts.

The following story of friendship be tween two digs may, I think, interest some of your readers. Soma time ago, I used often to stay with a friend of mine in Wiltshire, w h'Me park is separated from the house by a lake which is about 150 yards broad at the narrowest part, Being extremely fond of animals, I soon became intimate with two delightful dogs belonging to my hostess, a large collie called Jasper, and a rough skye terrier, Sandie. The pair were devoted friends, if p isstb'.e always went out together, and sad to rvlate.even poached together. One afternoon I called them as usual to go for walk, and making my way to the lake, I determined to row across ami wan der about in the deer park. Without thinking of my two companions I sprang into the boat and pushed off. Jasper at once jumped into the water, and followed the bout ; half way across, he anil 1 were both startled by despairing howls, ami stopping to look back, we stw poor little 'Sandie running up and down the bank, and bit ter'y bewailing the cruelty of his two so cailed frien Is in leaving him behind. Hardening my he-art, I sat still in lence, and simply watched. Ja-qer was clearly distressed ; he swam round the boat and looking tip into my face said un mistakably with his wise brown eyes, " Why don't you go to the rescue?" See ing, however, that I showed no sigs of intelligence, he made up his mind to set tle theditti -ulty himself, so turned and swam back to forlorn little Sandie ; there was a moment's pause, I suppose for ex planations, ami then, to my surprise and amusement, Jasper stood still, half out and half in the wa'er.an l Sandie scram bled on to bis back his front paws resting on Jasper's neck, who swam across the Like, and landed him safely in the deer park ! I need not describe tiie evident pride of (he one, or the gratitude of the other. London Wir. The Old Ox Team. An .ox team on tbe streets of St. Paul is said to be quite an unusual sight, but the resident of Minneapolis w ho cares to be reminded of bis old New England farm days with the sight of a yoke of oxen doing yeoman servh-e in front of a wagon needs but to go down in the vicin ity of the city market or over to the city hay yard on Lyndale avenue and be will lie pretty sure to find one there on almost any pleasant day. The farmers who drive horned steers into the metropolis are usually of the regulation down east pattern, typical Yankees, who are slow in abandoning the customs of their en riy days. Many of the farmers and gnrden ers aliout the shores of Minnetonka are eld settlers from way back. For years afier their advent in the territory of Min nesota the ox team was the old stand by in all the various details of farm labor, and for many a year was even the favor ite mode of locomotion. Tlnse old farm ers in later days have become gardeners as well, and either out of deference to old traditions or liecause they find him profitable, they still continue to make use of the patient ox, and are not to l deterred by any metropolitan customs or hifilutin notions from hauling their pro duce into th city behind their faithful ox teams.

From ll.irper'f Weekly nf Marrk Jtt. Has. The prohibitory movement has reached an interesting stage. It is a question of expediency, because the weight of intel lectual public opinion is wholly in favor of a wise regulation of the liquor traffic, and the signitti-ance of certain recent events cannot be overlooked. In Rhode Island, where a prohibitory amendment to the constitution was passed two or three years ago, the'.I.egislature has de rided to submit to the voters the question of its repeal. In New Hampshire the proposition of such an amendment has lieen voted down by a decisive nijority. In Massachusetts the opinions of well know n citizens who are prominent in all good works and of the most enlightened public spirit have been published, which reveal the sober .ind intelligent thought w hich will finally deride the question. Among thes opinions is that of Prof. James II. Thai er. of the Harvard Law School, which presents the question in a light which will be new to many of the earnest supporters of prohibitory amend menu to constitutions. Prof. Thayer shows the nature and purpose of such in struments, and in so doing reminds us f the unwisdom of ill-considered, however well-meaning, attempts to divert consti tutions from their proper objects. Prof. Thayer says l and his words are worthy of careful rellection) : " Our State constitutions, besides pro viding for the framework of government, the qualifications of electors, and the like were made to U- the guaranty and char ter of a few simple, well-established, nn controverted principles, lest in moments of passion or inadvertance, or under the temporary pressure of special interests, these should be disregarded. They were not made to be codes cf laws, or to em body the opinion of a monetary majority upon an entirely unsettled question like this of the best way to deal with the drink question. Te process of using constitutions in this way is a process of degradation from the example of our fa thers." The prohibitory amendment is not a declaration of fundamental principals ; it is substantially a law. Its object can be as completely and more satisfactorily ob tained by a law than by a constitutional provision, because opinion constantly changes upon the question of expediency of forms of restriction. Constitutional provisions should be fundamental, and not the subjects of constant agitation. But the best and sincerest temperem-e 1 1 1' n 1 rn fw,? an. I w. V. .. . . I , - ........-. ..tr.!, fiuitj uven, snil j never can be, agreed that a particular method of regulation of the traffic, or its ; total destruction, may be regarded as a fundamental principle. It is especially a subject for law, and not for constitution al provision. Prof. Thayer, in empha sizing this truth has performed a timely and important public service. Pounded Class For Poultry. The war on oyster sne'ls has bronght to light the fact that ponltrymen have been buying oyster shells when they can use something niiii h tietter, and that is broken glass. The only use of shells is to as list in grinding the food in the giz zard, but they are too soft, while the siiarp, cutting edge of the glass are ben eficial. iHm't lie afraid of the glass; it will not injure the birds, for nature has provided the liens with the power to I utilize the hardest and sharpest of sub stances for the purpose of grinding the food, and the more broken glass and pounded crockery yon give the hens the fewer thy cases of indigestion and chol eri will lie the result. It opens up a chance to utilize nil the broken lamp glolies. panes of glass, cracked plates an 1 cups, and provides the hens with just w hat they moat ardently desire.

W isconsin's homely executive enjovs a w ide reputation as a spinner of yarns, and none doe-i he tell with a keener rel ish than those t his own expense. Gov. H ar. possesses in a high degree the indescribable" knack" of telling stories. The tfovernor tells a story which, as re lated by him, is intensely funny, of a Yankee, who had a spedy team, which, be claimed, hod never been passed but once. One day tbe Yankee overtook a funeral procession which had been brought to a sudden halt by the giving out of one of the horses w hich drew the hearse. The Yankee volunteered the use of his horses to tike the place of theoth er team, and in a few uiiiutes he found himself on tiie hearse, driving slowly bis ; 9;edy animals. Just at this juncture a : rival whom iie had frequently vanquish ed on the roce track came speeding hy, evidently highly exultant at once getting j his old a Iversary at a disadvantage. Hu i man-nature assi rte 1 itself in the Yankee however, and he let his horses out. Then an exciting race wo liegun, only w hich ! ceased on the jwrt of tlu Yankee when he was overtaken by a man who rode up at a furoiu r.ite on horseback and 'old ; him tint " there was a funeral procession ; half a mile lj.u k which was willing to put ina little tune in a lugubrious way ! if it only had a c irp-ie to hea l it."

The Listener in the Boston 7n-riy has given several extracts from a book by Mis Carnlin U. Ls Row, of Brooklyn, called "The Yiing Idea," which contain examples of the results of nievhanicil rote inslr-H-tion. Mis Le Row begins in the miiMIe of tSiugs with a sample school srne, which simply serves to illustrate the intelligence of the average tenement house pupil: The definition of the worl "wicked."' occurring in the reading !e-oii, is asked of a class of children from ten to tweUe yean of age, of foreign parentage, and living in a tenement house ward. "What does 'wicked' mean ? Some one tell." "A sick person." "Ob. no. Wicked means very naughty, rerv bad. Tell me what wicked persons do." "Thieves, robbers, murderers, niggers, ghosts " "Oh, my dear children ' There is no such a thing as a ghost, and negroes aru not all wicked." ' I know a nigger that steals. Our dog steals. lists steal." "Is it wicked for a dog or rat to steal '." "No, ma'am." "Why not r " 'CaiLe tbey ain't got no manners!" The point in the introduction of this little colloquy is this : That the teacher's "grade" obliges her to teach a great many words and ideas which are utterly beyond suck pupils' apprehension. They attempt to learn the words before tiiey do the things. Tiie rote teacher exclaims: "Dictionary!" when the oupil asks the meaning of a word. The pupil lodts it tin : for in stance, the wonl "monopoly." It is de fined: "Monopoly from two Greek wonls meaning alone and to sell. Si'e permission and power of dealing in any goods.or with a particular country: ex clusive command or possession." And then come the children's exercises, which show how well they have understood the definition : "Our grocery man is a monopoly, be cause he keeps on a corner all alone." "Monopoly is something to clean the floor with." And here comes in a chance for'a little moral. The boy may be 'sick with in formation," but would be the author of " The Young Idea" want to know, if he were asked about things which are lo bim real things, tell you that a pair of skates were something to eat, a bob-sled something to wear, and a pin-a of pie something to play with? Thisearly and persistent use of words without ideas." Miss Le liow thinks, "is the worm at the root of the educational tree, and its blighting effect can be traced through ev ery branch of the child's mental labor. He is from the first in a state of bondage of words." It isn't only in the matter of definitions that th bondage shows itself. It is carried into all branches of the school work. The child studies all his lessons in the light of new wonls. 'The Young Idea," tells how studying is some times done. Not long ago a little girl wxs studying half aloud a lesson in grammar, ris king herself to and fro, as her glib tong-ie kept time with the movement. "Appellations of the Iity should always begin with a capital. An older sister, sew ing near by. ventured the question, "What do you mean bv appellations?" A blank stare. "I don't know. That's what the bis k says." "What do you mean by le.tv?" Another stare. "1 don't know. Tne teacher didn't tell ns to learn that. Don't bother nie. I've got to learn my lessons." S the intellectual exercise was resumed, accompanied by the rocking and the muttering, "Appellations of the Ieity should begin with a capital," until the lesson was ileelareil "learned." Here is where scholars learn their im portant facts in arithmetic, which, by the way, one of them beautifully defines as "the sins of number." "Subtraction is the minuend and the subtracted end." "A partial prsluct is one of the things you multiply with." "Brokerage is the allowance for the brokerage and leekerage of Isittli-s." "Insurance is when you die or burn up your money and the insurance office pays yon for it." "If there is no units in a number you have to fill it np with all zeros." "Principd is not valuable like interest and is never pc.id." "No man will live Ion.; enough to b insured unless he has great exjiectatioii of life." Miss L" Row comes valiantly to the support of enera! Walker, and main tains that about two-thirls of the in struction in arithmetic in the public schools is useless and in the way of more valuable ins ruction. Here are some characteristic grammar definitions: "Grammar is something to talk g-wid and is divided into diagrams on the black board. I can't never learn no gram mar." "A pronoun is when you don't want to say a noun and so you say a pronoun. It is when it is not a pronoun but a noun." "A conjunction is your very much sur prised at something." "An interjection is thmwing wordsinto a sentence o dear is interjection beeau.-e yon can't pass it with anything." "Adject'veof more than one syllable are repared br adding soma more svlla bles." "An adverb is used to mortify a noun and is a ern place or thing." Our Rainless Lands.
