·BAROTSE BOUNDARY
AWARD,
A Blow to the Slave Trade.
Anyone having but a slight knowledge of the situation will allow that the King of
Italy had no easy task before him when the definuation of a boundary between the British and Portuguese spheres of influence was placed in his hands,
He has done probably the best thing possible in the circumstances, for he has split the difference between the Portuguesc and the British South Africa Company, and & glance at the nap will show that a ter ritory about the size of England has been added to the British Empire. On the other hand, had it been possible to send a com- mission to the disputed territory, to collect evidence on the spot, it is fair to suppose that the award would have given Lewanika considerably more than he has now re- ceived. It is always difficult to obtain re liable evidenco in a land whero no literaturo 1976 exists and where an unwritten languago ie

Some 20 years ago Lowanika was deposed and an attempt made upon his life. He flod to the west. but subseq-ently returning, again estab lished himself as chief of the Barotse. When Mr Corydon, the present Adminis trator, arrived at the Barotse Valley as British Resident in 1897, Lewanika found himself so secure in his position that he was able to pay much moro attention to his outlying subject tribes thau had been possible for many years past. The ustural consequences are that the evidence of his

How the Natives Benefit.
Mr S. M. Mitrå, a native of India, and proprietor and editor of the Deccan Post,' yesterday delivered an interesting address on India, Past and Present, before a number of ladies and gentlemen interested in Indian affairs.
The Earl of Donoughmore, in intròd-oing the lecturer, said that in this country we know too little of our Empire beyond the
seas.
To show how little we appreciated the vastness of our possessions, ha rolated how, the last time, he went to the Fast, a lady friend, hearing that he was going to Hongkong, expressed a desire that he should look after her nephew at Yokohama.'
Mr Mitra, in his address, first drew attention to tho size of our Indian possos- sions. Bengal, he showed, had a population twice the size of that of France, the

Hindustani population was twice as numerous as the inhabitants of the United States; the old Roman Empire had but 120,000,0,0 people, whilst the fighting population of India was 125,000,000.

Thoro wero five high courts of India, and oach of them had at least one native judge on its bench. Two chief justices had been Hindus, and three indas had been appointed standing counsel to the Bengal Government.
English had been selected as the medium through which the Western sciences were to bo taught one of the greatest honours perhaps which had over been conferred upon the country. Without it ho would not now have been addressing the meeting. But agitators and missionaries complained that the English had taught the people of Fadia to drink. This he denied, proving. from the Rigveda, or religious laws of India, that drinking habits were known there 2400 years B, C.-an intoxicaut known as Somarasa being freely indulged in and used in sacrifices. The great Indian epics, the Mahabharata and the Ramyana in the first century A. D., referred to 'wine dowing like water,' and to the saints and law-givere entertaining each other with wine,
to ladica mouths being *sconted with the fragrance of liquor.' He pointed to tho fact that the great founder of the Mogul Empire had been a hard drinker, whilst his

evon
son had had his figure holding a wino goblot engraved on the coinage of the
country.
The lecturer asserted, in conclusion, that had time permitted he could have shown that famines had always existed in India, and that, 2010 years B.C. they were in- initely worse than at the present day.

'Nothing would stay on my stomach- not even a drop of beef tea or a little boiled milk; and as no nourishment could be put in my system, I wasted away to a mere-shadow.
My husband heard of Bile Beans, and as a last hope we got a supply. I perse. vered with them, and the fact that they were going to ouro me soon became clear. Soon after beginning to take thein I passed The passing of two great gall stones, these gave me great p in, but when the pain subsided my bowels became easier and the constipation left me altogether. Every week I got better, the ailments I had suffered from disappeared, and in the end I was completely restored to health.
•I met my doctor while the cure was in progress. Ho asked the cause of my im- provement, and when I told him he said; If Bile Beans have made this wonderful change in you, by all means continue them." Another day I was stopped by our minister, who, on hearing what had cured me, said: "The change is so wonderful it is your duty to write to the Bils Bean Co. and thank them. Bile Boans are now our family modiging.'
The above sensational caso proves con- clusively that Bile Beans can cure the worst onses of stomach and intestinal disorder. They aro equally effective for debility, biliousness, constipation, piles, nervousness, adamia, female ailmente, weakness, pains in the back, sleeplessness, loss of appetite, congestion of the liver, headache, flatulence, pimples, and skin eruptions.

Messrs Carlowitz and Company sued the Sun Shing firm, carrying on business at Yoo Woo Street, Canton, for $11,937,83, damages for the bronch by the defendants of their conditions covering the sale of cer tain cases of fine crackers sold by the defendants to the plaintifs from August, 1900, to March, 191.

In the statement of defence the de fondants denied that they had broken any contract. Prior to delivery the plaintiffs examined the said goods and agreed to accept them.
