CANNIBALS WOO
FRENCH WOMAN
* ■ *
African Offers to Kill One of
His Wives to Avoid “Thir-
teen Hoodoo.”
PARIS, Aug *. —Mlle. Jeanne Genac
h<- just returned from an exploration
trip to equatorial Africa, to relate how
she refused the flattering offers of
twenty cannibal kings.
"When I told my parents and friends
that I had made up my mind to go and
study the manners and customs of the
equatoiial Africa." she said, "they all
thought 1 had gone mad. ‘Heavens! -
they cried. Exploration is not for young
women. And who will consent to mar
ry a gill who has been jaunting about
in the jungle .”
"Seeing that I was unmoved by this
supreme argument they drew a terrible
picture of the fate that awaited me. I
would die of hunger, thirst and heat,
or, if 1 escaped these dangers, I would
certainly fall a victim to lions, tigers
or serpents. I listened patiently, said
nothing and started on the appointed
day.
"I left the steamer at Cape Lopez and
was obliged to wait there three weeks
for the little steamboat which was to
take me along the Ogoive river, which
follows the equator and crosses the
country I had made up my mind to ex
plore. 1 spent several months there,
and am almost ashamed to say that 1
was never in any great danger.
Almost Became a Queen.
"The only real risk I ran was that of
being made queen! No white woman
had ever visited this country before, so
my appearance naturally made a deep
impression on the susceptible savages
who live on the banks of the Ogoive
river.
"The news of my arrival spread
through the jungle with lightning ra
pidity, and whenever the little steam
boat stopped there was always a crowd
wailing to see me. Probably what
struck them most was that I had no
husband or master. They soon deduced
that there might be matrimonial possi
bilities, and several of them hinted that
I had only to say the word if I wanted
to live under their august protection.
But only the kings were bold enough to
make me formal offers of marriage.
“My first royal suitor bore the har
monious name of Oranger. He intro
duced himself to me and explained that
he had spared no patns to array himself
sumptuously in my honor. Perhaps I
showed some surprise at the seeming
meagerness of his apparel, for he at
once pointed triumphantly to his head
dress.
Brought Curious Presents.
"He had crossed a wide stretch of
jungle to see me and had brought me
several presents a dead snake, an ele
phant's car. an alligator's egg. a little
piece of carved ebony and some mon
key s' skulls.
I accepted the lot with as good an
appearance of joy as I could muster.
Then Oranger offered to make me bls
principal wife—he already had a dozen
but I told him that thirteen was a
very unlucky number for white people.
He kindly offered to kill one of his
present wives to make room for me, but
I was adamant. Then he became fu
riously angry, and I could only calm
him by thinking it over-
“Another monarch whose proposal I
rejected said: ’No doubt, you rear that
you are too thin for me, but don't hesi
tate on that account. 1 will fatten you
up as I did my other wives. I know
well bow to do it, and you may rely
on me '
"I haw counted up the cannibal kings
who wanted me to share their thrones,
and I find that there were just twenty.
Surely that is a record."
