is to tie tried near Mt. Kenia. In Af
flea. His present tour of Central Eu
ropean cities is made to rally am.
eremirage his followers before they
shail set out for this Valley of Eden on
the Dark Continent.
Hertzka told hts plan to the world
four years ago in a book entitled "Fred
, land, a Picture of the Future. The
book was written In the peculiar styie
which the author had acquired in writ
ing standard works on political econo
my, and, therefore, the professors and
newsptiptw critics thought it dMtlned
for the top shelf. They did not believe
that the thin romance attached to the
person of Miss EHea Fo*. and A rt
can girl, would save it, but the Pr
f™ and critics were wrong In
The remained Ts ot.
reformers’ dcsks and Unglcd
sentences stuck In reformers’ minds un
tn a regular “Freeland” movement
started in Germany and Austria-Hun
gary then spread to England and
France, and finally, so Hertzka and
his European agents say, spread over
Atlantic to America.
Within two years some twenty so
(defies were formed in Europe to help
Hertzka found his new colony ln Af
rlea. At the end of 1892 the number
had Increased to thirty. Now it Is
forty or fifty, and the agents of Free
land are soliciting recruits 1n half a
dozen capitals. The money necessary
to begin the experiment has been con
tribiited. The ship to carry the eml
grants to the new Utopia is to be en
gaged soon. Within! two months Dr
Wilhelm will start from Vienna with
the first twenty Freeland pioneers and
from the Ba»t African coast will salt
on Freeland's chartered steamer up the
Tana River to Hertzka’s so-called Val¬
ley of Eden, where the new state will
br founded under the protection of
the British Government. Before sum
