Regiens Recently Visited by White Mes For the First Time.
At a recent meeting of the Royal Geographical society an interesting pa- per was read by Lientenant Vandeleur, embodying the result of explorations during the last two years in the region of the upper Nile, in Uganda and Un- yoro and adjacent regions not hitherte visited by white men. Incidentally his paper reveals the activity of the Eng- lish in this part of their African sphere and the need of the railway from the seacoast to Lake Victoria, for which an appropriation was recently made. Leav- ing Mombassa, on the coast, on Sept. 7, 1894, Lieutenant Vandeleur did not reach Lake Victoria till the end of No- vember, the journey to Uganda thus
taking three months, or six months for |
the round trip. Toward the beginning of 1895 he proceeded from Uganda with an armed force to descend the Nile and reached Dufile, being the first white man to revisit that place after its abandonment in November, 1888, on the approach of the Mahdists. What was done at Dnufile is not stated, but it may be assumed that his visit had a military object in view—possibly its oc- cupation by a British garrison—and that point on the Nile is probably now held by forces sent from Uganda.
During 1895 the whole of northern Unyoro, toward the Nile, was surveyed, including the course of the Victoria Nile from Lake Ibrahim to the Murchi- son falls and part of the Lango or Wakedi country. Mount Fumbi, in On- yoro, was found to be 6,640 feet above the sea and seme 800 feet above the ad- jacent country, which is held by means of Fort Masindi. The valleys are fer- tile, producing great quantities of In- dian corn, tobacco, bananas, castor oil, etc. The Wakedis were found to be an interesting people, living in conical huts in independent communities. Part of the lieutenant’s task was to lead an expedition sent to attack Arab slavers
| in southern Unyoro, with the result of
liberating many captives. The Msisi river was reached, and near that stream was found another British fort, 4,582 feet above sea level.
The climate in these uplands is de- acribed as ‘‘fairly good,’’ being driex than that of Uganda. In July, the cool- est month, the minimum temperature was 49 degrees, the usual night temper- ature being 60 degrees. The highest registered temperature was 80 degrees. Peace, enforced by the English, has led to great improvement of the economic condition of the people, who have set- tled down to agriculture and roadmak-
| ing. The cessation of war has resulted | in a rapid increase of the population.
In Uganda industry is becoming more common, and the people are beginning te carry goods and ‘‘perform a certain amount of work.’’ Many have been taught to read and write. A port has been established on Lake Victoria and a silver currency introduced. As the peo- ple become more civilized and their wants increase, there will be, it is be- lieved, an increased demand for foreign goods.
Of special interest from the point of view of intending colonists is the Nan- di country, also visited by Lieutenant Vandeleur. This region lies at an aver- age height of 6,000 feet above the sea
and has a climate well suited to Euro-.
peans. The thermometer here rarely rises above 60 degrees, and the nights are cold. There is abundance of grass for cattle, and for the most part the soil is very fertile. Timber is to be had in great plenty, a circumstance which will have great importance for steam- ers on Lake Victoria and for the rail- way when completed to the coast. The lecturer mentions the curious fact that the language of Zanzibar is becoming the medium of communication between the various people in all this part of Africa.—Baltimore Sun.
The Queen on English Chessboards,
Some oid time chess playérs whe strolled into the judiciary committee room during the recent cable match, where the games were reproduced, wer¢ puzzled to see that on every board the king stood where the queen ought to stand and vice versa. This was readily explained, however, by the statement that this had been done for many years by British players in honor of Queen Victoria, the piece bearing the crown now representing the queen instead of the king, as in the days when the royal game had its origin. This has been done in England, it is said, ever since the time of Heury Stanton, a famous chess player, who first changed the pieces out of compliment to the then young and beautiful Queen Victoria. However, while the pieces have thus been changed, the play has not. The crowned head representing the queen does not stay at home near her castles for self protec- tion, but skims with rapid movements the whole field of wer, just as kings were wont to do, while the quondam queen, now the king, trembles as of old at the constantly threatening danger of ‘checkmate. —Washington Post.
