Mungo Park's Daring Plunga Into the Heart of the Continent. Mungo Park started out on Ms Afri can expedition the first '.serious at tempt that was ever made to explore the "(lark contiiieut" on Oct. 24, 1705. The lion hearted Scdtclimaii. with two negro servants, set out from Gambia, on the west coast, and plunged fear lessly Into tho (ask which before him no white man had ever attempted. It took a real man to plunge Into the unknown Interior, tilled with tales of the monstrous and the terrible. Huge serpents, roaring lions, great black cannibals, scorching heat, deadly fe verswho would dare to challenge these things? And so Africa remained "dark" until yesterday, as It were, while Moses was battling with his problem in the Arabian wilderness; while civilization was maturing In Egypt and Greece: while Roman repub lics and empires wore rising and fall ing: while the modern nations Were coming into being: while crusaders wore fighting and troubadours sing ing: while Columbus was discovering tho new world and' Washington was founding the United States of America. Hut at last the man and the hour met. and the son of the Selkirkshire farmer took his brave leap into the mystery. In the mystery he remained a year and a half, when he reappeared, returned to England and wrote "Trav els In the Interior of Africa." n book which Is still one of the most Interest ing In the libraries of the world. ' In the year 1805 Mungo Park started on his second trip to the dark conti nent, a trip from which he was never to return. Resolved, with true Scotch grit, to "discover the mouth of the Ni ger or perish In an attempt." Park pushed on through the pathless forests until he reached u point between 9 and 10 north latitude, where in attempting to make his escape from the natives, who wore about to kill him. he was drowned In the mighty stream. which should be accepted ns his most fitting monument. Rev. T. B. Gregory In New York American. Old Time Rowing Costumes. English rowing men a century ago wore costumes far different from what they wear now. In 1S05 It was the cor rect thing for them to wear a green leather catskln cap with n Jacket and trousers of nankeen. In the first uni versity race at Henley In 1820 Oxford won wearing blue checks, while Cam bridge was in white, with pink waist coats. Rrond brimmed heavy straw hats came In a little later. Curiosity.
