Africa to explore the city (! Ki fra. headquarters of rho s'nussi i, a fanatic and hostile group whose mlil itary adventures recently have caused anxiety in Egypt. Traveled . Alone. Mrs. Forbes, wearing the native costume, was alone in her daring ad venture. She Joined a native caravan and, riding a camel, finally crossed the Egyptian frontiers and reached the sacred oasis city where only one Eu ropean-an explorer of -4) years ago has ever been before. Here she was well received by the tribesmen and given a safeguard back to civilization, but throughout the journey she was surrounded by hostile natives who would have killed her had they known that she was a white woman. The start of the trip was made from Benghazl, the Mediterranean end of the ancient caravan route from the central Sudan across the Libyan desert. She had previously arranged for a form of passport from the Senus si, but this was of little value, as the tribes through which she passed did not recognize their sovereignty. Spies surrounded the caravan and at the sacred city of Taj the entire party was placed under arrest and thrown Into a native prison. After great dif ficulty they were released and allowed to proceed. Welcomed by Chiefs. At the osases of Kufra the chiefs welcomed Mrs. Forbes and told her of their plans for political power. On the return journey she again had trou ble with the natives and was at one time forced to disguise herself as a I man. Mrs. Forbes made a survey of the ountry during her journey and col lected much valuable information about the national aims of the Senussi tribes, but concealed a small kodak undr her flowing native robes and made snapshots through a hole cut in the ress. Returning to London, she hns now laid the results of her ex plorationis ;efotre the Biritish grovern rent and was receive1 lby the king.1 The Senussi are becoming a powerful force in Africa, and whe~n during the war they alliled themnse s with the Turks, Egypt was fir:t -d a::ainst thenm at a cost of $ZI P Ii,tE.)

Txis wHERE CHARIOTS SPED Motor Vehicles Replace Many Horse Drawn Cab. in Streets of Rome. Rome, Italy.-Taxicabs have just in vadei Rome, replacing many horse- - drawn cabs, which have held sway in the capital of the Caesars for cen turies. The taxicab, though welcomed with open arms by the general mass of Ro mans, has met for years a stonewall opposition for the right to circulate in Roman streets- The 5,000 cab driv ers and liverymfeni fought its use and warned the city administratIon they would be defeated at election if the taxicabs were admitted.
