Lald down upon the real map of New Guinea it is clear that he must have crossed the great Island and have kept on Into the open sea for 300 miles or so. tioned by the fact that Captain J. A. Law son never wandered in the interior of New Guinea, never was in New Guinea by so much as a foot upon the black shore. Yet the work is of the most lively Inter- est, it s crammed with interest, its pages are Teplete with:such observations as a trained explorer would be expected to record. The human interest is not absent, difficulties, we become familiar with his native companions, the detail of camp and company ls set forth entevtainingly and before he s done with them they are al! disposed of in & way very satisfactory to such exploration. Toolofwas a Lascar who had been the captain’s servant for two years. The Australian black fellows were engaged as bearers—Tom, Joe and Bili but Tom ran away before they set out trom Sydney. At Houtree he selected his guides, Papuans, but seemingly well grounded as linguists, for they used Eng- lish, French, Dutch and Portuguese and Malayan dialects. Aboo was the elder of these, about 50, only four feet three inches in stature, repulsive in ugliness by nature, helghtened by art. Danang was only 2, a foot taller than Aboo, very strong and cor- respondingly lazy. Up in the Interior the jsun proves wo much for Toolo, he goes mad and blows the top of his head off with the captaln's rifle. Joe, the Australlan, and Danang, the younger Papuan, are killed by hostile natives at the explorer's farthest north. Aboo is left at Houtree on the return and Billy is a scamp, but the author starts him away from Singapore in the direction of Sydney. It is not to be supposed that Captain Lawson thus disposes of his evidence at the beginning. On the contrary this re- cord has been picked out from the narra tive ‘and assembled as herein set forth. dealt with. It Is not untll the end of the venth chapter that Toolo is marked for sulcide. Tucked away in the last pages of the elghth chapter s the wiping out of Danang and Joe. Aboo vanishes without any warning -sign when Houtree Is near on the return journey; exactly what does begome of him is mot made clear. Billy, the Australlan. aboriginal survivor, per- sisted as far as Banda in the Malay Archl- pelago, where his master fell il Better for Bllly's reputation, assuming that he had any reputation at all, if he had re- {moved himself earlier. For the explorer gave him a black mark there in Banda, |almost the last words in the book: “but | Billy never once came near me, and I heard that he was almost constantly in a state of beastly intoxication." A sad rec ord after they had stuck together through %0 many moving adventures. The last rec- ord of peor Billy, set aboard a =hip in Singapore for Sydney, is this: “I got rid of him at last.” Now recur to the start. Although Houtree is determined by its precision of minutes, and above all those ineriminating seconds, to be y out at sea, thig explorer set forgh from Houtree The value of the work is indeed condi- | we follow the traveler through monstrous | Captain Lawson also selected his com- panions with & view to future-possibilities, | In the -book itself it is far more artfully | ock in the morning, headed west, July 10, 1872. The equipment of tho expedition is set forth in detall, the struments for the determination of posi- ton, twenty-four pounds of hardtack, guns and ammunition, Pigkles and jam, and six | botties of brandy. From this point onward the narrative is |a convincing tale in every lne. Little of the day's march, the mature of the coun- |try traversed, the difficultles of the way, the incidents of the cRmp by night. Strange things he saw in the jungle, but no matter how strange he set theMt down with wealth of versisimiltude. Bt were the plants upon the wandering co vet he docketed them n his ndrrative for the information | of botanists, Strange insects there were, not a record 15 lost, not even of the little green fly that boomed like a drum in the ob- seurity of the primeval forest. The same ‘attentiongto precise detall is shown in the map, tHe graphic presenta- tion of the reconaissance. He does not pretend to make a topographic map of the country. Far more honest in appearance, his map is the mere tracing of the spider Ufie of the actual mareh upon the blank of the unknown which lay east and west of his random course. It is painfuily honest. Wken he crosss a stream he sets down upon his sketch only such detalls as he might see at the ford. The cast and future of the watercourse are beyond his knowl- edge because outside his observation. When he crosses the Papuan Ghauts, his first great discovery, his instinct for truth prompfs him to record & wider extent upon the map, for everybody knows that a chain of hills can be identified by eyeslght into the biue distance. Where all is new, where the land trav- ersed is such virgin sofl, every incident, no matter how trifling, 1s of moment. But setting rigorous faces against the discus- sion of the detalls’these may be presented as the greatest discoveries wirich Captain Lawson made in. his traverse of New Guinea. The first great find was s magnifi- cent lake, sixty to seventy miles long, on the north and south axis, fifteen to thirty miles broad, abounding in fish, some of | which were ten to twelve feet long. This | fine sheet of water he named Lake Alex- andrina after his queen. Ever loyel, this explorer, a liberal, too, in his political pro- | fession, that may be determined from designation of the River Gladstone, wii 1s the chief confluent of the great River| Royal, waterways which he is later to dis- cover. Mountains are his chief discovery. First| comes the Papuan Ghauts, only a few | maréhes from Houtree. These are but pr paratory, mere foothills; he measures Mount Misty at 10,672 feet and In the dis- tance triangulates the height of the high- | est peak of this range at 12,4 feet. After the passage of the Ghauts he comes down L low savannah once more. It is preparatory to the Qiscovery of the loftiest mountain in the worid, & mile higher than Mount Everest. This is Mount Hercules. Just before he reaches this mon- er of all mountains he measures the Out- post, 15,001 feet, and the brilllantly active volcano of Mount Vulcan, 10,743 feet. Then coines Mount Hercules. Its summit altitude above the sea is 33788 feet. It is almost all effective helght, for the plains | out of which It rears its awful form are | barely 2,000 feet above sem level.
