! national complication arose when it
was found that a wide tract of valu
i able land bad been erroneously " as
signee to cngiana and hnd to be tran
sferred to Belgium. Then there was
ths adoption of a definite meridian
which crossed the Kalahari Desert,
the eastern limit of German South
west Africa.- Thw entailed years of
scientific labor, costing a sum equal
to tne value or tnotKands or square
miles of useful map-making to find
out where the meridian really lay.
"Absurd incidents atese over th
delimitation of the boundary 'between
the United States and Canada. One of
the main difficulties arose as to what
was meant in the treaty by a 'main
channel.' Between Vancouver and the
mainland thJre is an achiDelaeo and
among them at least three channels
triit might be called main channels.
Chief among these bslp.nds was one
called San Juan. In 1859 a pig was
shot by an American on San: Joan and
the American was haled before a
British magistrate and threatened
with imprisonment. This put a cli
max to the dispute. American honor
was touched and troops Were landed
from both sides. It looked as if the
pi incident would lead to war; but
thj position was saved by ubitra
