B—4 # EXPEDITION HEAD DETAILS ESCAPE Whole River Flowed Down on African Party, Dr\. Tor- rance Says. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 20.—Dr. Arthur Torrance, whose African expediticn was reported wiped cut in a flood last April ! 28, last night told how the party, de- serted by its native company, worked its way out of the jungle to safety. The New York explorer, who reached his home this week, was known to have been saved since May 7, when maure cable advices to The Associated Press confirmed the tidings. Sought Sleeping Cases.

Dr. Torrance said he saved most of his scientific data, his collection of in- gects, two rare crocodiles he brought back for the University of California, and a letter from the Governor of Kenya, Africa, to the Governor of Cali- fornia. Nearly 100 native boys deserted the expedition in terror and returned to an outpost town. Members of the group were fcrced to forage the country as they made their way through the jungle.

By the Assoclated Press. JACKSONVILLE, Fla., June 20.—Ex- perimenters at the Yale University an- thropoid ape colony at Orange Park are weary of monkeying around, trying to keep the chimpanzees straight. It’s so hard to tell one ape from on- other that it has been decided to fin- gerprint them. The problem arose in the course of experimental work. The chimpanzees are nearly all brunettes and their eyes are about the same color. Eustus Durden, State 1den'.tflcl'.|on officer, said the chimpanzees could be as readily identified from fingerprints as human prisoners. “The characteristics and patterns of a monkey's nngerprlnu are the same as those of a man,” Durden said. “In fact, if they are the same size as those of a man, nobody could tell the difference.” PRICE CONSTHUCTION co.

He obtained 10 shillings from his guardians, spent six weeks on the way to Orleans and in the vicinity of that city and then set off for Paris alone From Paris he moved on to Rouen, then to Havre, where he meant to join up as a soldier in the French Army. Peace intervening, he trans- ferred himself to a company of En lish free lances commanded by Capt. Joseph Duxbury. From 1596 to 1000 he served in the low countries, “fight- ing for the Duwh .{nin.st thelr religious enemies.” years furnished him & stern erwulh school; he eme: from them a man and a first-cltss fighter. Recelved With Enthusiasm. In his twenty-first year he sailed from Enkhuizen, North Holland, for Leith, Scotland. The vessel was | wrecked off the Northumberland coast, but John managed to get ashore. In Edinburgh he found it impossible to find congenial employment and after some wandering in the north he re- turned to Willoughby—a prodigal son, more or less, but “he was received with enthusiasm” for “he had interesting yarns to teil.” However, he had no intention of re- maining at home. Indeed, after a few days, he built himself “a pavilion of boughs” in a little wooded pasture “a good way from any town” and like ‘Thoreau and Whitman in later times, “retired from society” for a while. We are told that he had with him two books—Sir omas North’s “The Dial of Princes” and Machiavelli’s “Art o( War,” the former based on "Tgou‘hu. of Marcus Ag;enus smc losopher. and Roman Emperor. pb"mm this solitude Smith removed at length to the household of the Earl of Lincoln, at Tattersall, but he did not nmlln long in this employment. “He to see of the world, into the Balkans as a soldier of fortune.

From 1 1608 he tirelessly devoted hlmself to the cause of colonial expansion. He was one of the pro- moters of the Royal Virginia Co., granted a patent in 1606. He was as- sociated with ‘Capt. Bartholomew Gos- nold in his campaign for a Virginia colony. In the Fall of 1606 Smith was ready for his greatest adventure. Plot Develops in Party. We cannot review in detail the his- tory of his career in Virginia. A brief outline must serve. He sailed from the village of Blackwall, Poplar Parish, on the north’ bank of Thames, December 19, 1606. There were 150 men in the party destined to constitute the planta- tion party. These were distributed in three sips, the Susan nt, God Speed and Discovery. craft had “unprosperous winds the start, and it was not until New Vears day, 1607, that they reall; the Downs.

By this time a scheme to hang Smith had been developed. Just why we do not know. What is clear is that certain important members of the company were mere idealists, totally without experience practical affairs, and apparently Smith lncurnd the vehement dislike of some of these persons by well-intentioned ef- forts to protect them from the inevit- able consequences of their own folly. Smith was & man of broad experience and they were not—they could not lead him; they them. The Virginia coast was sighted at dawn, April 26, 1607.

And it was Smith’s management that kept the plantation supplied with corn. ‘The record is pathetic. Trip after trip we find him making into the Indian country in search of supplies. His hardships on these expeditions make very unpleasant reading. His danger was as constant as it was great. It was on one such excursion that he was captured and dragged before the Indian king Powhatan. The sequel to this incident, the story of how he was saved from execution by the interven- tion of Powhatan's little daughter Pocahontas is probably the most wide- ly known folk legend of the American people. The facts have been chal- lenged. Some authcrities say the tale is patently false. But other authori- ties, equally competent, insist that it is true. It certainly seems true. Smith also was charged with the re- 'Eonslbllity under Ratcliffe of keeping building operations at Jamestown moving and of prepar] a cargo for s shipment to England when the ships shculd come again. It was in connec- tion with this duty that he said that those who would not work might not eat. When he was absent matters went badly at the settlement. When he was present they went fairly well. ‘There must have been some relation of cause and effect in these circumstances. But he was not universally appreci- ated. Quite the contrary. Released by Powhatan, he was condemned to be nged—fcr not having saved two men who had lost their lives by disobeying orders! The sentence would have been executed had it not been for the time- ly return of Capt. Newport, with sup- plies and new colonists from England. This also gave Smith additional stand- ing with the Indians. He had “prophe- cied” Newport's return, and his predic- tion had been fulfilled. Spent Summer Exploring. Smith spent the Summer exploring the Chesapeake country. He had been instructed to look for gold and silver. Personally, he does not appear to have been much interested, but he did his duty, and meanwhile he examined the geography of the vicinity as it had never been examined before. The tan- gible result was his famous map of Vir- ginia, as beautiful a chart of its kind as there is in the world. Returning to Jamestown July 31 he e | found the colony in a state of mutiny against Ratcliffe, The people insisted that Smith take command. He did so at last, but he made his friend, Master ident.
