To meet the ban <|>n the manufacture of wine In the ; rent grape-misiug areas the agricultural college of the University of California has develop ed a practical method of converting grape juice iuto excellent sirup, it is the belief, says the Scientific Ameri can. that converting grapes into sirup instead of wine will double the value of the fruit. The estimated value of the crop of 259(100 tons of wine grapes, grown annually, is four million dollars; if the crop Is made Into sirup, ; it should have a value of eight million While the experts at the agricultural college have been working on the proh- i lent, an independent cheu\is*t and grape expert has succeeded In produc- ! ing a sirup from grapes that meets all the requirements of n commercial product.

UNSPOILED TRIBES OF AFRICA English Traveler Pays High Tribute to Morals and Behavior of Negroea Whom He Met. Summing up seven years of travel In the Interior of Africa, where the na tives are "uncorrupted by alcohol, European morals, nnd the love of gain either by fair means or fraud," an Englishman, Mr. E. Torday, speaks very well Indeed of the African negro. In two crossings of the Congo Free State lie met no tribe that "was not naturally good-tempered, and. In most Instances, hospltnhll and trustful." Customs of course are different in a land where one may know the tribe to which a man belongs by the design thnt has been painfully embossed on his skin. Tile traveler tells of tribes where all the women who would lie In the fashion paint themselves red from top to toe, and are so fond of the color that if a gift is given them they im mediately paint it rod also. Cannibals tie met, and people who live in houses the door of whic h looks like a window, and olliers, remote from the Inventions of civilization, who transmit compli cated messages over long distances by signals on a wooden gong. Odd human beings, as tlie rest of ns henr of them ; j but the traveler left them with regret, looking down from tils steamer on the crowd gathered when lie was leaving the Congo, "among whom there was not one who was not tny friend." "Deke" was his name among the na tives, and as he steamed away, there stood his "dear black friends, waving their hands, cloth, branches, nnd any thing that entile to hand, and shouting In the native tongue, 'Good-by, Deke; don't forget its.'
