SEEN ON THE CONGO.
FACTS LEARNED BY SOME OF THE LATEST TRAVELERS.
Engornoss of tlie Natives to Learn the Re
sults of Explorations—Tlio Human Sacrificial Offerings of the Africans—Ways
In Which Women Have the llest of It.
Tho ten or twelve explorers who have done most to prove that, tho Congo basin, until recently almost unknown, is tho second greatest river system in the world, have of course discovered many things of surpassing interest to the student of geography and its kindred sciences. It is intended here to speak, not of tho great discoveries of sensational importance, but of interesting facts which have atr tracted less attention.
About 450 miles above the mouth of the river tho Congo widens into an almost sou like expanse, and for more than a hundred miles up stream it is from five to twenty miles in width. It is a curious fact that, though many of the Congo tribes travel far from home, the natives along one bank of the widened stream had hardly a particle of information about the dwellers on the other shore when the whites first met them. Tho great river was a barrier that news rarely crossed, separating the tribes almost as completely as though an ocean stretched between them. Here hundreds of lovely islands so impedo tho view that travelers skirting one bank cannot see the other for more than one hundred miles. Of course the river is very shallow except in the channels, which are not yet well known, and steamers often run aground. It has occurred that steamers have passed in broad daylight without knowing of each other's proximity.
A FREQUENT SAD SIOHT.
Many natives are eager to learn the results of exploring expeditions. When the more intelligent chiefs understand that the whites are spying out tho land, they are anxious to learn whether the now facts can be utilized to their own advantage. Thus when Grenfell returned to tho Congo from his 200 mile trip up the Lulongo, the big Chief Ibengo and his head men were as inquisitive as an American interviewer. They wished to know how far tho Lulongo could bo ascended in canoes, whether the natives were numerous and friendly, whether they had ivory and slaves to sell, and so on. Here, as in other parts of the Congo basin, tho discoveries of the whites have largely stimulated the inland trade of the nntives. They now send canoe trading parties far up tributaries where they did not venture before the whites pioneered the way.
Native geographical information has been rarely serviceable to tho whites. Coquilhat says that beforo a native answers a geographical question ho makes up his mind what unswer is desired or expected and replies accordingly. Von Francois found on some of tho southern tributaries that information given in onj village was contradicted in tho next.
Ono of tho saddest sights seen anywhere is a common spectacle on some oi' the large tributaries. Tlio Bangola and a few other large tribes along the Congo havo a great demand for slaves to bo killed as sacrifices upon the death of important persons, or to bo used to furnish forth their cannibal feasts. Unless tuey aro at war the supply of slaves often

short, and they send expeditions up tho Lulongo, the Tchuapa and other river.- to buy victims lor their ceremonies. Another reason why thtvy seek tho slave markets along tho Congo tributaries is that, as a rule, the further they go from tho main river +ho cheaper they can buy slaves. So it is no ui,commou sight for explorers, ascending th tributaries, to meet processions of Congo canoes laden with slaves, usually male adults going to their own funerals, and often bound hand and foot,
They understand lull well the cruel fate from which there is no escauo. Tho richer or more important the family which has lost, ono of its members, tho mero numerous must bo tho victims who follow him to the grave. This is one of Africa's great cruelties which tho Congo state government is suppressing wherever its authority is sufficiently established to combat tho ancient evil.
Tho chief reason why natives on tho tributaries aro wilder and moro distrustful than on tho Congo itself is because Congo pirates do not tako the trouble always to patronizo tho slavo markets, but seize any man they can.
WHY WOMEN ARE NOT BOrLED. While women perform most of tho drudgery of tho field and house, there are certain compensations for the stern fact that they belong to tho fair sex. Women aro not regarded as fit subjects for the boiling pot, ard throughout tho Congo basin, where cannibalism is doubtless practiced to a greater extent than in any other part of the world, women as a rule aro not among the victims. Then while tho lazy men are exchanging gossip in tho village street tho women aro pounding grain into flour or delving in the fields. Tho result is that in some tribes tho women full}7 equal tho men in muscular development. In tho greut Baluba tribo tho harmful practico of hemp smoking, confined to the men, has mudo them conspicuously inferior to tho women in physique. So it happens that in many a Congo household it is not tho man who "bosses tho ranch." Many of the women are credited with great ability as scolds, and having tho muscle needed to back up their voluble complaints, they lord it over the household as completely as though they were strong minded Caucasians.
Somo very forcible methods aro employed for keeping up tho price of commodities on tho Congo. A while ago a wmnatis body was found hanging from a tree on tho river bank near Irebu. It was learned that th* crime of which sho was accused was that of selling provisions too cheaply to whito men.
If wo happened to bo on a Congo steamboat, which, rounding a sharp bend, came suddenly into view of scores of people who had never heard of a steamboat or a white man, wo would probably regard tho actions of that astounded crowd as among tho strangest spectacles we ever saw. Explorers say that every mode of expressing astonishment is shown on such occasions, and that actors would find iunong these awe stricken blacks a rare chance to study facial expression. Many stand and stare, with eyes bursting from their sockets, and with wide open mouths, which they presently cover with their hands, a common mode of expressing unbounded astonishment. Others stand a long time motionless, as though riveted to tho spot. Still other- are seined with tho wildest panic, and bound away into tho forest as though bewitched. Ono day Greni'ell, on his little steamer, suddenly came upon about fifty women, who were fishing along the shore of an island. With a wild shriek all plunged into tho water and swam with frantic strokes to tho mainland, where they disappeared in the underbrush Oij another occasion a woman, who suddenly saw tho strange apparition, fell to the ground in a fit. Dr. Wolf and Lieut. Von Francois have written most graphic accounts of the remarkable effects upon the natives of their first sight of a puffing steamboat.—New York Sun.

THE CRAWFORDSYILLE WEEKLY REVIEW
ELECTRIC TELEGRAPHY.
Tlio Wheatstone System and Its Ingenious and Practical Inventor. Prof. Wheatstone of King's College, London, was one of the several persons who in 1837 claimed the honor of having invented the electric telegraph. He first applied for a patent for making the electro-magnet act at long distances. In July, 1837, wires were laid down from Euston Square to Camden Town Station, in London, and Prof. Wheatstone sent the lirst message to Mr. Cooke, his coadjutor in the work, between the two stations. The invention was immediately patented, both in England and America, and it is stated as a curious fact that the American patent granted to Wheatstone & Cooka is earlier in date by just ten days than the first patent obtained by Morse. Prof. Wheatstone has made many inventions and improvements in electrical machines. In 1830 he constructed the first electrical machine for sending several messages at once. The telegraph apparatus now used throughout Great Britain was invented by Prof.
Wheatstone. We can not give the full details of its construction, but may briefly outline it thus: It includes a punching machine for producing the perforated strips of paper, a transmitting apparatus through which these strips are rapidly passed, and a receiving device which marks on another strip dot6 and dashes in ink. The punching machine will make the holes in three or even four strips at a time, and in the hands of an experienced operator will punch at the rate of forty words a minute. When the paper is prepared, it is run through the transmitter, which operates to establish a current whenever certain moving rods can pass through the holes and establish a contact, the currents being alternately positive and negative. If a succession of currents in reverse directions are caused to pass upon the line, the receiver at the opposite end will record a series of dots. To make a dash, one reversal of the current is missed and, in brief, the function of the paper is to regulate the motion of the transmitter so as to produce reversal or missing of reversal, of the current at the proper moments, find thus cause the current to form, in its movement, dots and dashes. The speed is determined by the rate at which the receiver can receive, because the apparatus contains a controlling electro-magnet, which takes time to be magnetized and demagnetized, and hence, if the current reverses too quickly, the marks will run together instead of being sjparate and distinct. The maximum useful speed is about 130 words a minute on a short line. One strip of punched ribbon will do for any number of circuits, so that from a central station a single strip disseminates news to many places.—Chicago Inter-
DUTCH WIND-MILLS.
Structures That Seem to Sum Up the Whole Life of Holland. In some way mills are among the most suggestive things in Holland they Beem to sum up the whole life of the country. It is hard to define the exact Impression they produce one almost unconsciously assigns to each mill an existence of its own, as if no mero machine could cause the swift rhythmical motion of tho sails, that impetuous yet ordered cadence which seems to bring one into contact with the living forces of nature. It is perhaps this intimate association with nature which gives to the wind-mill its peculiar charm. The strong outline of the sails thrown up against a wind-swept sky carries the imagination from the city to the lonely fields, it suggests' that poetry of solitude, even of desolation, which all painters since Rembrandt seem to have felt to be the distinctive^ note of the wind-mill. One of the most curious sights in Rotterdam are the wind-mills rising here and there out of the blocks of houses, standing like a countryman fresh from the field, and hedgerows in the midst of a crowded city. The Dutch mills almost reach the dignity of architecture. They seem to possess that curious happiness of design which is only reached by tho conscious thought of a skillful architect, or else by the spontaneous working of nature. Every thing seems just right, just what it ought to be, no more and no less. The wind-mills at Dordt are used cither for sawing timber or grinding cprn, and the two types aro very distinct. The timber mills start from a square staging, tapering upward, with gable wings at either end at the top of this stage the four angles are chamfered back to receive tho octagon of the mill itself and at this level a broad projecting gallery, upheld by timber struts, runs round the mill. The upper part is octagon, and usually covered with weather tiles or a soft velvety thatch, which sets off the sharply-defined lines of the sails and the great spars by which the top is moved. For some excellent reason the linos of the eight angles of the mill aro not made straight but havo a delicate concave curve. The Dutch builders always had a feeling for the value of a curved lino in preference to a straight the same instinct appears in the fieches to their churches, where tho sides of tho octagon spire usually havo a slight curve on the face inward. The top of the mills which carries the sails is covered with thatch. It is more or less circular in plan, afiJ of an indescribable but most effective form, such as only thatch could cover.—English Illustrated Magazine.

FACTS ABOUT GLOVES. According to Authorities They Aro Not Made of Dog or Kat Skin*.
There are many popular fallacies concerning kid and other fine leather gloves. Some of the most sceptical people, if their attention is called to gloves, will say with the utmost confidence: "Oh, they are made of rat aud dogskins in fact, almost any thing but tho skins of kids." Many people think that dog-skins play a large part in the manufacture of kid gloves. The fact of the matter is that not one dozen out of thousand so-called dog-skin gloves are made from dog-skins dog-skins do not make fine gloves. They car. not be dressed to give them a fine finish and are thick and coarse. Of the rat-skin fallacy it need only be said that there could DO considerable number of ratskins be obtained, and they would be useles? for the manufacture of gloves if there should be.
The dapper clerk in a gentleman's furnishing store tells you: "Now those are dog skin they are warranted to us by the manufacturer and so we can warrant them to you." The gentleman tells his companion that he might as well buy a pair of dogskin gloves and pay a dogskin price for them for if he asks for kids he is sure to get dog-skins after paying the extra price. The fact of the matter is that about ninety-nine out of every hundred dozen pairs of men's gloves are made of sheep or lamb skin. There are some few made of horse skin, but these are considered fine and in fact cost as much or mora than kids.
Nearly the whole supply of horse skins comes from Russia, and when properly treated the leather tans a beautiful white and is used for the finest men's gloves. Many sheep, lamb and kid skins come from South America, but the natives down there have not learned the process of properly curing the skins and consequently much leather that with proper care might be made valuable is practically spoiled in preparing it for market. The finest kidB come from France, although a number of European countries furnish a large number of good quality. Goats multiply in numbers rapily, with suitable care, and the peasants in some parts of Russia live almost entirely on goat meat and milk and what few vegetables they raise in their gardens. A kid five or six weeks old is said to make a more palatable dish than lamb's meat. Tlie butchers in some European countries will kill and dress the kid for the hide. They understand how to dress the skins and treat them so as to make them most valuable, and do not blunder as the South Americans do by nailing them upon a flat surface and allow tlie broiling sun to burn all of the strength and elasticity out of them. 'A good lamb skin is better than a poor kid," said the superintendent of a glove department, "and many lambskin gloves are sold for kids, but the supply of kids' skins is very large and is increasing each year, so that there seems to be no danger of a permanent increase in the price, although there has recently been an increase of from ten to twenty per cent, in the price of the skins."
This was explained by a large dealer by the fact that though there is theoretically no kid glove trust, there is what practically amounts to the same thing. The business in Europe is in the hands of three or four rich dealers, who can buy up the bulk of the skins on the market and control prices for a time, by making an agreement, perhaps verbal, to keep the price at a certain point. This can not be maintained any great length of time, however, for the reason that a number of American houses now have special buyers who visit all of the countries where the skins are produced and buy them directly from the producers. The only dealers being affected by the market being cornered are the small ones, who only buy enough stock to last them a month or two. and when their stock is used up must pay the increase demanded by the large dealers or stop their works. —N.
