Victoria Falla.
Just as «very visitor to the Unit­
ed States heads straight for Niag­
ara, so every visitor to South Africa
purchases forthwith e ticket to the
Victoria falls o f tha Zambesi, the
mighty cataract in the heart o f
Rhodesia, which is the greatest nat­
ural wonder in the dark continent
and perhaps in the world.
The natives call the falls Mosi-
oe-tunya, which means “ Thunder-
mg Smoke,” and you appreciate the
name’s significance when your train
halts at daybreak at a wayside sta­
tion sixty miles sway and you see
above the treetope a cloud o f
smoky vapor and hear a low hum­
ming like a million sewing ma­
chines.
T t is so utterly impossible fo r the
eye, the mind and tne imagination
to grasp the sise, grandeur and
beauty o f the Victoria falls that it is
futile to attempt to describe them.
I f you can picture an unbroken
sheet o f water forty city blocks in
width hurtling over a precipice
i high as the Flatiron build­
ing yon
I can give ydu o f what the Victoria
falls are like.
They are unique in that the level
o f the land above the falls is the
as that below, the entire
breadth o f the second greatest river
in Africa falling precipitately into a
deep and narrow chasm, from which
tha only ontlet is an opening in the
rock lees than 100 yards wide.
From the Boiling Pot, as this
seething caldron o f waters is call­
ed, the contents o f the Zambezi
rush with unbridled fury through'a
deep and narrow gorge o f basaltic
cliffs, which, nowhere inferior to
the rapids at Niagara, extends with
many zigzag windings for more than
forty miles.
My first glimpse o f the falls was
in the early morning, and the love­
ly, reeking splendor o f the thing,
as the great, placid river, all un­
conscious o f its fate, comes sudden­
ly to the precipice’s brink and
plunges in one mighty torrent into
the obecurity o f the cavern below;
the crash as o f unceasing thunder,
tha rolling clouds o f spray, the
trembling earth, the somber rain
forest on the opposite bank and a
rainbow stealing over all, made a
picture which wul hang on the walla
o f my memory as long aa I live.— E.
Alexander Powell in Scribner’s.
An
Ineidant Which tha Steamboat
Ganiua Never Forgot.
There was one tittle incident in
Robert Fulton’s life which Fulton
never forgot. It took place shortly
before the return trip of the fa­
mous boot's voyage by steam np the
Hudson river. At the time all Al­
bany flocked to the wharf to see the
strange craft, but so timorous were
they that few cared to board her.
One gentleman, however, not only
hoarded her, but sought out Fulton,
whom he found in the cabin, and
the following conversation took
place:
. “ This is Mr. Fulton, I presume?”
“ Yes, sir.”
“ Do you return to New York
with this boat?”
“ We shall try to get back, sir.”
“ Have you any objection to my
returning with you?”
“ I f you grish to take your chances
with us, sir, -I have no objection.”
“ What is the fare P”
After a moment's hesitation Ful-
kon replied, “ Six dollars.” And
when tnat amount was laid in his
band he gased at it a long time, and
two big tears rolled down his
cheek«. Turning to tha passenger,
he said:
- “ Excuse me, sir, but this is tha
first pecuniary reward. I have re-,
eeived fo r all my exertion in adapt­
ing steam to navigation. I would
gladly commemorate the occasion
with a little dinner, but I am too
poor now even for that. I f we meet
again I trust it will not be the
case.”
As history relates, the voyage
terminated successfully. Four years
later Fulton was sitting in the cab­
in of the Clermont, then called the
North River, when a gentleman en­
tered. Fulton glanced at him am
then sprang np and gladly shook
his hand. It was his first passen
ger, and over a pleasant little din­
ner Fulton entertained his gues
with th^ history o f his success an<
ended with saying that the first ac­
tual recognition o f his usefulness to
his fellow men was the $6 paid to
him by his first passenger.
