Traveler Speaks of Savages Ho
Met in Western Part of China.
They Are Warlike Race, Living In a
District Which Is Mountainous,
but Very Rich In Mineral
Resources.
Shanghai, China. Little Is known
ovoii In China about the Loto country
In the woHtorn part of tha empire,
but a Hhurt thnu ago u missionary
emtio rrom this dlBlrlcl and ho was
able to toll us that these savugea aro
friendly to the will to man who deals
with them cautiously and that they
aro submitting to tlio teaching of the
few missionaries that have penetrated
Into the district.
Lololand lias attracted a good deal
of attention In Shanghai, and even In
America recently, on account of tho
truvela In that district of Or. Do.nenll,
who accidentally shot a native of
Tibet and had to be tried In Shanghai
for manslaughter. Following this, an
EngllHhnia.i named llrooko una mur
aired by lolos and the renl fact have
only come to Ugh with tho return of
Mr. 12. S. Little, who has been on an
i 'mi (i tour in western China Mr.
llrooke was utoncd to death after
shooting a Lolo chief In Kolfdefenso.
Mr. Little traveled through tho
country from Ynchow, across the
Tungho river down to NIngyuun and
across the Ynugtszo, at a place COO
miles above the highest point at which
it is navigable, and he found that this
country consisted of lofty mountains
with passes 10,000 to 11,000 foot high,
The mountains tower on all sides and
throughout the district named thoy
aro held by Lolo savages, who are
continually at war with tho Chinese
or each other. When Mr. Little en
tered tho country ho immodlatoly
camo into touch with a Bcoro of raids.
On ono occasion ho pussed through a
valley on either sldo of which wero
opposing forces of Lotos. On another
occasion ho henrd that tho roud in
front of him had been the scouo of
two raids nnd he found that 40 pcoplo
had been carried oft captlvo nnd sold
mi slaves by (ho Loloa.
Mr. Little had innny unpleasant ex
periences, hut ho was ablo to talk In
Chinese with innny of tho Lolos, ns
they understand a llttlo or that lan
guage. Tho men havo copied to some
extent tho Chinese dress, but over
all they wear a woolen cloak. Tho
women wear shirts, but no shoos,
stockings or underclothes. All of
them nro strnngers to soap and water.
Somo of tho women hnvo pretty fea
tures and tho wholo rnco Is dark, but
of flno carriage nnd physique, and Mr.
Llttlo considers thorn nuporlor In
many respects to tho Chinese. Tho
Lolos ore armed with antiquated fire
arms, long spears and nil sorts of mis
cellaneous wropons. Thoy nro clover
at stone throwing and when thoy can
not reach their onomy for a hand-to-hand
encounter thoy hurl pieces of
rock through tho air with remarkable
accuracy.
Tho wholo country has gront possl
blUtics. Mr. Llttlo saw gold, copper,
zinc, lend and silver mines, some of
which were being worked successfully
in tho nntlvo wny, nnd others nro
waiting for tho necossary capital, In
tho courso of his Journoy ho passed
mountains of highly inlnorallzcd rock
that had not boon dovolopod or
touched In any wny. Through nil
those mountains Micro aro ninny
streams of wator which would glvo
power for running fnctorlos and light
ing them.
