It is in Barotseland, north of the Zambesi, that our latest mission station in Africa has been chosen. We have received the grant of land, but as yet workers have not been selected to man it. In view of the fact that we are to have a mission there, the following will be read with interest: “The Barotse countries on the upper waters of the Zambesi will doubtless soon be settled by many Europeans. Reports come of a steamer having been launched above the Victoria Falls, and Europeans are coming in search of mineral wealth. The railroad is in process of construction from Bulawayo to a point near the Victoria Falls, and it has been said that the British South African Company has invited the British Association to meet at Victoria Falls in 1905. It is not quite clear whether this invitation is given seriously, but it certainly will not be an impossibility for a meeting of European savans in this section of Africa, two years hence.”
