WELTEVREDEN, Java, September 25.—In dense mountain jungles never before successfully penetrated by white men the Dutch Guinea expedi- tion of American and Dutch scientists has discovered an entirely new group of pgymies. Details of the discovery were received here yestetday from the Assoclated Press correspondent ac- companying the expedition. The dis- patch was carried by a bushman run- ner. Entering_a country in which pre vious expeditions had been decimated through fever and hardships. the scientists, after four months of travel, came upon the strange small people, living a quiet and secluded life, hem- med in by rugged jungle-covered mountains and cut off from the rest of the Papuan tribes. Prof. Matthew Stirling of Berkeley, Calif., one of the leaders of the expe- dition, described the bushmen as un- usually friendly. Contrasting them with the loud-velling and menacing attitude of other natives below, he sald the pygmies of the mountains talked in an undertone or’whispers and seemed afraid of being too ob- trusive. They were nbt timid, but quite intelligent, and always cool and collected. “The first thing they did was to give each of us a present. The presents consisted of their small bows and ar- row, rattan arm bracelets, ornaments, bananas and betel nuts. “Their whole material culture was entirely different from that of the Papuans. They raise tobacco, sweet potatoes, bananas and pigs. They brought us a pig, and all gathered around to make a ceremony of kill- ing it.” CAUSES $200 DAMAGE.
