from Stanley Kails with nuii ami goods, .and if Tippoo Tib furnished the carriers promised, he was to march, following the track blazed out by Stanley's advance column. If the carriers did not arrive, Hnrtellott was to disregard these directions and begin short journeys until Stanley should come down to hi roll". Stanley's columu sot out Juno 2, 1SST, ' from Ymnbuya with ns.t oftlcors "and men. On the first day the natives tlrny mot fired their villacs and hoifau nhtlnif.

The party reacted the river aijaln oi duly R, and from that lime till October 18. followed the loft bank. After seventeen day's continuous marchiag, they halted one day for rest. On the twenlv-foarth day they loit two men by leertioti. They made only four halts in July. On August 1 the first death oceurrcd. It was from dysentery. They now entered a wilderness which it tool: nine days to march through. n.'Jtir sufferings bvan to increase, and sreral deaths occurred. Tho river helied them, as the cauoes relieved the Hieu of much of their burdens. On the lth. on arriving at Airsibba, the ative attacked them, and five men were killed 'by poisoned arrows. Lieutenant SStalrs was wounded near tho heart, and .suffered greatly for a month before re--cTriHK. Oh August 15. Mr. Jepson, commaudtn itbe laud irty, got too far inland, and was Iot. His etmtitiijont rejoined the waia party on the 21st. On the loth they

arrived in the district of Airjeli, and eatMjH'd for a while opposite tho mouth of of the tributary Nepuko. Oa August 31 tho party fell in with a caravauof Mauyemauuder Uleuy- Italy us. This was most unfortunate, M Stanley bad taken tho route he did lu order to ,HVold the Arab". As expected, aovcral of hU men were tampered with by tho .Arabs, and within three day twenty-six "had deserted. On September It", Stanley arrived at th camp, opposite Lrnarrowwa. lie could mot rely ou friendly relations with the chief, ami finally made a trade with him, leavlnK fifty-six sick men with him, ami five dollars apiece wa? to be paid the -chief for takiuj? care of them Threo days later Stanley left, and on "October I reached a ettlemimt belonging to Kilinsfaloufra, a Zanalbarese slave , f Alted Ken Halim, the fterc old Arab wa has made o much trouble la the Conco Free State. Stanley Bitys: "This yroved an awful mouth to us. Not one member of our expedition, whlte or black, will forget it.

He wrongly, therefore, aud sent our inter-

Our.hill was between two vnllevs. I sent forty men under Lieutenant Stair to attack the natives in otie valley, and thirty tinder Mr. Jopsou Into tha other valley. Stairs crossed a deep river in tho face of tha natives, assaulted the first villnge and took It. The sharp-shooters did effective work and drove the natives back up tho opposite slope until the fight becamo general. Jepson also drove the natives in front of him. We marched straight up the valley, driving back the people, and taking villages as we want. Atii p. m. not a native was visible anywhere except on one small hill a mile and a half west. Oi: tho morning of tho 12th we eontintinned our march. Durintr the day wo had four little fights. On the 13th we

marched straight east, and were attacked by new forces every hour until noon, when we halted for refreshments. At 1 p. in. wa resumed our march, and fifteen minutes later I cried: "Prepare for a sight of the Nyanza 1" The men murmured aud doubted me. and said: "Why does master continually talk this way?" Nyanza indeed J Is not Ibis a plain, and can we not see the mountains?" Uut fifteen minutes later, aud after our four day' march, the Albert Nyanza was below them. All came to Ms my hands in recogaitlou of my prophesy. Our position was ;,) feet above the Sea the lake 2,100 feet below ns. We were in latitude 1:20.

There was no feasible plau except to re

On the 13th we marched to Kavait, on

They related an awful tory of hairbreadth escapes and tragic scenes. Three of their number had teen killed, two were still feeble from tht'lr wounds, and all but five bore ou their bodies tho scars of arrow wounds.

Out ot 217 men only ev-euty-ouo remained, and of these only fifty-three were fit for service, aud the were mostly scarecrow. According to Itonney, during the fourteen mouths sluoe I left, the record had beeu one of disaster, desertion and death. Many of the u details seem incredible. There remain still far more stored than I can carry, at the same time articles needful are missing: Deserters had spread the report that I was dead, and the officers accepted the reiHrt and agreed to caucel my instructions.

ty-Nlae Wars r Agv. l'oniey Hooper, an old qulored farm m who live hi the uaetMH portion of the county, ami who, laet year, lu h battle with rattlesnake., killed eleven of the reptilea. was lu Memphis, ami from him a reporter learned or another and atlll moru interostlng omjouiitor whloh occurrwl refeiitly. I'oiiiiiey iH grent coon Imiiter, aud lu company with two other, ho tdurted out on a big hunt. .Several roeoooim wore caught and the trio, lifter having hugoly enjoyed the sport, were preparing- to return homo whuti suddenly tho dogs biryocl again. Approaching new to whore they were barking, tho three concluded, um they had their gium with thorn tuul wero tired chopping down troos, to wait until daylight and nhoot tho game. As it wiw only n short while until dawn, a lire wiw accordingly built, nud while liirt companions produced a deck of cards with which to while away the time I'ompey stretched himself oa the ground for a short imp. Somehow the old follow could not sleep, and after a tihort while ho picked up his gun, and

lighting n pine torch walked over to where the dogs where. Instead of a tree and a coon ho found the hounds scratching and tearing up the earth at tho huso of a hollow rock. Thinking that some animal hud taken refugd in tho bowlder, ho jammed tlie blitzing torch into tho crevice. Tho old negro' terror was great when instead of tho growl which was expected, he heard a terrible rattling, such as experience hud taught him tho rattlesnake givoe only when about to strike. I'ompoy'ts

light with tho deadly roptilos lat year hud left an impression on hie mind, aud ho was preparing to run whoiv hosnys: "Ono of tho biggest ratriers yon ever hoard of ulid outeti1 that hole mi1 jumped at me. He would a1 got ine, shore, but one o' the dogs grabbed his tall an1 gin it a llirt." Just then another snnkc, "bigger tlmu tho udder," crawled out and m ule a, loap for Potnpey, who ''fetched him a swipe with tlie torcli" and then grabbed hits guw. Ily this timo tho lirst snako was rattling nud striking, and, with one hand holdingtho torch and the other tho gun. the old nogro "blasted away," but mitred. Steadying himself he took hotter aim and fired the second time, and with hotter results, for tho roptilc'rf head was torn completely olT. At thit moment tho other snake struck l'oinpey'.s foot, burying it fangs in tho too of hiti ahoo, but, luckily, so near the cml that no damage win done. Again the pine torch came down, and this time on the snake's head. That ended it. ami a the old negro's companions! 'im riteihinsr to the Beeno and found

him itarofuliy examining Ids foot, hardlv hUI to understand that he hud es

caped unhurt. If what the darkies say
