The viilagenof the interior, dreading always a visit from some horde of rsiders, hide away their elephant tusk* in tie jungle* and the swamps. The Arab* make no praUnse to legitimate commerce . with their superior weapons and overwhelming numbers they can, without difficulty, overcome the poorly armed na- tive*. Actually the slavs traffic is subser- vient to the aquisition of ivory, for the Arabs capture the native* and than ransnei theni for ivory. The slaver* havs several stronghold* in Central Africa, the principal of them being Tabora, Kareuva, Ka*ong->, Xyangwe. I'jiji and Stanley Falls. Large hordes of hired robber* branch out in M direction* from .hose depot* and swarm over the whoie and. Their plan of action is to stealthily iiirround a village by night : then at .arly dawn a few muskets are fired to in .imidate the villagers. Bewildered at the -nd* awakening the poor creatures rush >ut of their huts snd fall an easy prey to the inhuman villains, who leap luto the village from all side*. All too** who resist are shot down or stabbed, and the remain- der, old and young, are taken prisoners and are herded into a stockaded pen, ami there guarded night and day.
