(AR "R MADAGASCAR'S CAPITAL. A Handsome City of European volved from a Town of Straw. Any one who has read of Madagas- car’s progress has heard of the. Itev. James Sibree, who for thirty years has been identified with missionary work there. He hasnow returned to Ing- land from Antananarivo, the capital, and has given to the Royal Geographi- cal socisty an_account of Madagoscar civilization. He describes the capital of the Hova kingdom, a town which thirty vears ago contained only huts of straw and mud, and the plac hundreds of Christing, wero killed dur- ng the Yeathen persecutions. Today fie capital is far advanced 1n civiliza- tion and contains hundreds of fine stone and brick buildings. Antananarivo stands upon a long hill 600 feet above the valleys that surround it. It was the old custom in Madagas- car 1o build all towns upon eminences, in order that they might be more easily defended. The hill is covered with houses from summit to base and hundreds of structures are perched upon its sides on terraces cut into tho rock. On one side of the hiil 1s the precipice where in 1849 hundreds of Mnlagas, Christians were hurled to death because they refused to disavow their belief in Christianity. LRoad making is very difficult because the bare rock almost everywhere comes to the surface. A silly law was once in force. No building of stone or clay was permitted within the limits of the town. The houses of the nobles and wealthy people were of massive timber, roofed with wooden shiogles or thateh. Fires, there- fore, were of frequent occurrence. When the queen and her government accepted Christianity in 1868 this foclish lauw was repealed, and the old timber houses have now almost wholly given place to structures of brick or stone, The building art was revolutionized when Mr. Sibree and other missionaries erected in stone the martyr memorial churches. The city now contains several thousands of good two and three-story houses and many public buildings. ~ The residences of some of the wealthier people have spa- cious verandas with piilars of moulded brick or of stone with carved capitals. Not a few buildings are still unfinished, and an aspect of neatness and tidiness is lacking. Still, when the visitor re- members that the presenttown has been evolved from a heathen settlement of straw and wattle he wonders that the Hova people have made such progress. Among the prominent builaings are royul pulaces, the largest of which, a thvee-story brick timber structure, is surrounded with a great stone veranda and arches strengthened with corner towers. Then there is the immense stoue and brick palace of the prime min- ister, who is also_the queen’s husband, and handsome residences of nobles and high off ‘Che high court of justice is quite imposing with its lonic columns, and has the appearance of a Groek tem- ple. The spires or towers of the relig- tional buildings are seen from a long distance und udd much to the beauty of the city. Thus the capital of the Malagasy has become a respectable city, The mis- sionaries there and in other towns ofthe Hova nation are teaching 100,000 child- reu in their schools, and it is these mnis- sionaries who have wrought the wonder- ful change in Madagas: They ve lifted a once ignorant and semwi-barbar- ous people to the position of an enlight- ened and Christinn nation. Nowhero in the world has the good of missionary work been more strikingly maufested than in Madagascar, The government has never taken a census, but Mr, Sibreo and his friends have counted the buildings in the city and made inquiry ag to the average number of occupas®s. They think the city contains about 100,000 inhabitants. There are often many strangers in the capital, as people come from all parts of the island on government busi- ness, bringing tribute to the queen and receiving orders from her. The name Antananarivo means ‘“at the town of a thousand.” The city is the heart of Madagascar. Officers and soldiers are sent from it to garrison all the ports on the const and important towns in the interior. Every week thousands of books and periodicals arve distributed from tAntananarivo all over the count:y. Here native doctors, sur- geons, nurses, schoolmasters and ovan- gelists are taught and then sent away to other parts of tho kingdbm to earry on the good works the white man has brought into the great island, - Valuable Stumps, New York Sun: The vAndal wood cutters in the California sequoia forests used to cut trees at a distance of from twelve to twenty feet above the ground in order to avoid the gnarled and knotted base. But it has lately been found that these stumps are us valuable as tho straight wood. The gnarls pre- sent most beautiful figurings and the wood is sawn into thin sheets and used for interior decorations, Now these stumps are being dug out and soon not even a vestige will remain to show what was the appearance of some of the most majestic natural monuments of 3h is wonde: ful continent. s BLASTS FRO.
