‘‘Far different is the stete of af- fairs in colonies’ under other flaws The horrors of Spanish rule in South America and the Indies are well known, as witness the barbarities at- tending the rebellion in Cuba as well as that in the Vhilippine Islands. For many years the Portuguese flae has been the chief shelter of the slave trade in South Central Africa. The

Dutch colonists, from the Cape to the Limpopo, have offered the natives no other choice than that between slav- ery and extermination. Of German rule in Africa the case of Carl Peters is a sample. Says a recent writer ‘In the Cameroons the Germans seem to have devoted their energies chiefly to the wholesale thrashing of natives, male and female, and to the repres- sion of rebellions that have broken out in consequence of this conduct.’ Naturally enough, the growth of these ‘colonies’ is slow. Germany has occupied Togoland,which is near- lv half as large as New York State, for a dozen years, and yet its white population to-day comprises only seventy-nine Germans, six Frenchmen

and three Englishmen. She has owred for the same time the Cain- eroons, a region as large as all ¢he North Atlantic States and Virginia

a is the Anglo-Saxon secms to be the one great colonizing race. Latins had the start of it in but it has immeasurab!s them. The Dutch = and Portuguese Were the first in South Africa, but must now yield place to the British. France got the first grip upon India, but had to loosen it in favor of her island rival. New Zealand and Australia are other ex- amples of the marvelous ability of this race in founding and developing new States. Men of other blood come in later, as they came to the United States by millions, and made admirable citizens; but the pioneers are of Anglo-Saxon origin.

“It is a strong, proud race, some- times arrogant and domineering, but on the whole both just and generous It has established in every auvarter of the globe such an empire, political, commercial and intellectual, as no other in this or any day has ever dreamed of, covering six times the area of the Roman Empire at its greatest, and comprising one-third of the whole population of the globe. And with all this achieved, it is still so fresh and vigorous and full of vit- al energy that every would-be rival seems weak and decaying in compar- ison with it. It has played a great part in the history of the last cen- tury. It will dominate the doings of the century to come.’’

Such were the thoughts of Has- tings while he listened to the story of how the fierce Matabele had been driven back toward their strongholds of the Matoppo hills, now aflame with signal fires, and echoing with the hollow music of the war drum.

‘ourncy from tne to the Cape of Good Hope without territory controlled by the sons of St. George; and that day will mark a new era in the history of the so-called Dark Continent, since the blackness of superstition must give Way before the torch of civiliza- tion. The little band rode on.

Sounds of the night came to their ears, Sounds that were more indica- tive of life than the whisper of the wind among the tops of the forest trees.

Wild animals roamed through the region, and at intervals their voices could be heard in the distance as they sought for food.

Every man kept his rifle ready for immediate use, since there could be no telling when it might be needed.

Conversation had utterly ceased, on'y an occasional whisper being heard as Bludsoe conferred with Lord Bruno, or gave orders to his faithful fellows.

Professor Jules stood it like a stoic—smali man that he was, he had spent so many years in an ar- duous chase after an elusive chim- era yclept frame, that his system had in a measure become hartened, and he was thus enabled to withstand knocks which might have used up many a man apparently much strong- er

region or cone one

once leaving

Hastings was for a time puzzled to account for his willingness to return, but finally believed he had alighted upon the true reason when he remem- bered a chance meeting that had oc- curred with a strange creature pos- sessing a tail, and which in describ- ing to Verdant he had declared pos-

sessed many of the attributes of a Wild man. Yes, the eager professor actually

believed this might turn out tp be the long sought ‘‘missing link’’ of Darwin’s theory, and could he but make such a discovery his claim to a niche in the column of Fame was assured.

Thus, it will be seen that quite a variety of motives influenced the members of Lord Bruno’s little ex- pedition in making their way north- ward.

The bright stars swept on in their Westward course—the moon hung suspended in the heavens almost as round as a silver cart wheel, being near her full.

How like an old friend she seems to travelers far distant, this guar- dian of the night that now hangs Over them in South Africa, and in a hours will smile upon their be- loved nests in England or America. How many have fondly wished they could entrust fair Luna with a mes-

sage to loved ones at home: but alas, the wizard of to-day has not yet arrived at a solution of this perplexing problem.

That same old moon has_ looked

down upon all history from the time

of Adam—wars and conquests have been carried on, the spread of civ-

ilization has girdéed the earth, Amer- ica from being the home of the say- age has become the abiding place of teeming millions Whose magic in- fluence is for the benefit of mankind. And in ages to come the calm heaven- ly luminary will look down upon an earth that “‘blossoms like the rose,’’ upon which superstition and idola- try and darkness have no place, and where war is no longer the dread arbiter of nations.

Hastings’ ruminations were _§ sud- denly distributed by a_ sudden ex- clamation from Bludsoe, who at the same time drew in his horse.

“It is an hour past midnight—the beasts are tired, and we had better rest,’’ said the scout.

Immediately the small detachment of venturesome spirits went into camp. Every man appeared to know just what duty was assigned to him, such was'7 the remarkable accuracy with which Bludsoe had inculeated his ideas among his foliowers.

In ten minutes after the word to halt was given, the little laager pre- sented an appearance of peacefulness and rest. Horses had been hobbled, sentries posted, and the remainder of the band lay upon the ground wooing the gentle goddess of slum- ber.

Hastings had endured many discom- forts during the last three months, and to feel a saddle umder his head for a pillow, with a warm blanket between his body and the chill night air were luxuries rather than other- wise. Hence, it was not the lack of comforts to which he had become accustomed that caused him, weary as he was, to lie there and stare up at the yellow moon, glimpses of which could be seen through the branches of the trees.

Nor did the thoughts of the mar- velous treasure-trove of which he had come within an ace of being possess- ed, have aught to do with his wake fulness.

Between his eyes and the ore of the moon there came in ign

tion the face of the fair god of the Zambodi. Again he was staring af ber as she waved her white arms agé

23, 1900 toes oOo - . sang @fQin in wnavanacen ne could see _ the spellbound

impis

crouching on the plain below, grov- } eling and worshiping this angel of

light who seemed to sway their des- tinies.

Who was she—what was she—how came such a lovely being in the midst of these Savage and merciless blacks — what connection had her past life history With that of his artist friend Lord Bruno?

These Were the questions that riot- ed through his brain and baffled his efforts to obtain sleep. Again he seemed to fell the mystic influence of her wonderful presence: again he ex- perienced that Overpowering deter- mination to learn more of her his- tory, and assist her to escape from confinement if, as he suspected, she ‘proved to be a prisoner even while a god.

Over the hills in the west the moon hovered ere Rex Hastings’ thoughts became an incoherent jum- ble, and he finally drifted away in the boat of the dream king.

There may have come to him while he slept visions of that same charm- ing face which seemed destined to have such an influence over his whole future; but we draw the limit of our powers of divination at dreams, so that his secret must remain such.

CHAPTER VIT. MONSIEUR JULES AND THE “MISSING LINK.

There was no stirring reveille to arouse the occupants of the little camp in the heart of the enemy’s country, no beating of drums or blowing of cavalry bugles such ag

might have marked the hour for ris- ing in a military laager.

instead, a hand touched the face of Rex, who opened his eyes to find the sun up, a small smokeless fire blazing in a cleft, an aroma of cof- fee in the air, and his friend Lord Bruno bending over him.

‘Breakfast is about ready, Rex. Just give you time to dash some water in your face from the little brook yonder, This may ‘be the last cooked meal we shall have for some days, so we'll make the most of it.”

It did taste remarkably fine. Rex hardly realized how much -he had missed the luxury of a hot cup of coffee until given the opportunity to indulge. They chatted over the meal, and laid all manner of piains, Which no doubt would undergo the ordinary metamorphosis consequent upon the shifting surrounding condi- tions.

They were in no hurry to leave their present camp, since a_ further advance could only be made in safety under cover of darkness, owing tc the danger of discovery.

Through the morning they lounged about.

The sentries were repeatedly chang- ed, and taking advantage of the chance presented, Rex and Lord Bru- no clambered up the side of a_ steep elevation near by, from the top of which they hoped to have a view of the surrounding country, which would aid Hastings in his efforts to jocate the situation of the great kraal, upon which he and the profes- sor had looked at the time of the white god’s appearance.

The view amply repaid them for their efforts, since they were able to mark out their future course.

Smoke attracted their attention in several quarters, but Lord Bruno de- clared these were signals of the blacks, it being a favorite method of passing communications around.

Whether these smoke columns had anything to do with their presence in the neighborhnod was a question they could not solve, nor would Jim Bludsoe have been any better able to have read the secret in those spirals that crept into the ambient atmos- phere from various hilltop signal sta- tions.

Having accomplished all that was possible the two friends commenced the descent, which was more of a task than the climb had been. Lord Bruno had, at the suggestion of Bludsoe, carried a lasso, without which no respectable cowboy would ever mount a horse.

Backache for 18 Years.

Suffered Much—Was Unable to Work or Sleep—Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills Made Him Well.

Too many endure the misery of back- ache without knowing that it is the unmistakable symptom of kidney dis- ease. As you value your life do not neglect a backache. It tells of the be- ginning of the most fatal of diseases —Bright’s Disease of the kidneys.

Mr. D. C. Simmons, Mabee, Ont, writes :—‘ My kidneys and back were so bad that I was unable to sleep or work. My urine had sediment like brickdust, and I had to get up three yy four times every night.

‘TI gaw Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills advertised, and decided to give them a trial. I have only used one box, and am a well man again. I can suw wood or do any kind of work; and am not bothered with backache or kid- ney troubles. I also enjoy good rest and sleep, which is a great relief af- ter suffering for é¢tghteen years.”
