, BisHop Of Liberia Soon To
Return To African Colony
Where He Faced Savagery
First White Man Ever Seen by Natives Escaped Hor
rible Deaths Many Times by His Wits and Strong
Personalis Originally Sent by Britain to Blaze
Trail of Schools and Churches for Traders to
Follow Later.
Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 6. (Spe
cial.) When Rev. Dr. Walter H.
Overs sails for Africa next month
to assumt his duties as Bihop of
' Liberia to which he was elected by
the Protestant Episcopal church, he
Will be returning to a land in which
23 years ago he discovered 250.000
natives who had never seen a white
man.
V At that time Dr. Overs, then 26
years old and fresh from the Uni
versity of Manchester, England,
was a representative of the British
colonial government and the for
eign mission board of the Metho
dist Episcopal church of England,
his mission being to teach, preach
and study in the colony of Lagos,
inhabited by the Ijebus, a tribe of
barbarians.
After several years' work in the
jungles, Doctor Overs became sr?i
- worn by the African fever that he
was compelled to return to England
to regain his strength. He spent
several years on the continent and
then came to America. After sev
eral years in New York City and
'along the shores of the New York
state lakes, he went to Bradford,
in he Pennsylvania hills, where he
regained his strength. This enables
him to return to Africa, resume his
Work and round out a life's ambition,
v Given Dual Position.
When Doctor Overs was gradu
ated from the University of Man
chester, . the colonial government
was seeking someone to go to
Lagos, on the Mave coast, to estab
lish school and churches that the
traders .might follow and develop
the wonderful resources of the coun
try. The board of foreign missions
of the Methodist Episcopal church
was anxious for the propagation oU
the eosoel amonartihe natives and
by agreement the young minister
was selected for the dual job.
With a bible in one hand and a
rifle in the other, the 26-year-old'
preacher set out for that part of
Africa never before visited by a
white man. How well he performed
the many difficult tasks committed
to his care is a matter of church
and colonial history which had an
important part in his election by the
' Protestant Episcopal church as the
first white man ever sent to Liberia
as bishop.
He established 35 schools and
churches and built roads in addition
to combatting the three principal
evils of . eqnatorial Africa, human
sacrifice, slavery and polygamy.
Personality Made Impression.
He healed the sick by application
fif standard remedies offsetting the
" 'natives' use of sacred charms to ap
pease the wrath of the evil spirits,
which in their mind, was the cause
of all sickness and distress. He
performed minor surgical operations
and ministered to the spiritual as
well as mental welfare of the na
. tives. ' By his methods he gained
their admiration and affection.
- His strong personality made such
ant impression on the natives that
theV elevated him to a chieftancy,
making him one of the principal
advisers to the king. By reason of
this post he was able to influence
the makin: of just laws, which
gradually resulted in' the wiping
out of human sacrifice, a practice
then very common.
On being raised to the chieftancy,
Dr. Overs was presented by the
king with a large tract in the in
terior. He spent two days in walk
ing around its bounaries and then
conveyed it to the mission board.
It has since become very valuable,
its wealth in mahogany timber and
minerals being estimated at $2,000,
000, which is now being used to
further the work he so auspiciously
started.
Proposed Laws Adopted.
He studied the native laws and
proposed the following changes to
he at first was forced to recognize
because of the conduct of the native
members of his household. A three
fold course was idolatry, fetich and
sacred charms. A fetich might exist
anywhere, the natives believed, and
in his fight against it Dr. Overs had
to take a bold stroke.
Saved by the King.
There were fetich trees where the
natives offered up sacrifices. To
these trees the fetich priests fastened
sacred charms which even they did
not dare remove. To do so meant
death, thev believed. Dr. Overs
took a cutlass and stripped one of
the trees of its ornaments. This
angered the natives, who wanted to
kill him. Only their king's course
of reasoning saved him, for he lived
despite the stripping of the tree.
This showed them that he must have
a more powerful god than any of
meirs ana mat nis goa would punish
them if they killed him.
The stripping of the tree eventu
ally caused the natives to lose faith
in the fetich and charms and later a
school and church were reared under
the branches of the former fetich
tree.
On one trip into the interior Dr.
Overs did not see a white man for
nine months and he found 250,000
natives who had never seen one. At
one settlement 30,000 inhabitants fled
in terror when he approached. His
were the experiences of Livingstone
and Stanley, but he penetrated a
country which they never reached.
. Dr. Overs is rector of the Church
of the. Ascension at Bradford, Pa.,
having been ordained into the
Protestant Episcopal , ministry at
Harrisburg, Pa., in 1910. Before go
ing to Bradford he held charges in
Mechanicsburg and' Wellsboro, Pa.
He served Methodist Episcopal
churches in New York City and at
Jamestown, N. Y.
He will sail for Africa soon after
Christmas and Mrs. Overs and their
children wijl reside at Jamestown
during his absence. In Liberia
Bishop Overs will have a native Li
berian as suffragan.
Fuel in Trunk That
. Had Held His Money
Drives Man ' Insane
Hammond, Ind. Dec. 6. All is
not milk and honey for the foreign
er who returns to his native' land
after accumulating a fortune in the
United States by slaving and saving.
Word was received here of the
I fate of George Lungu, who went to
Roumama four months ago inde
pendently rich" from the proceeds of
a saloon operated in Indiana Har
bor. Before leaving, Lungu bought
enough clothes to last him several
years and placed them in trunks to
gether with most of his money.
As he neared his home in Rou
mania he was robbed of the money
he had on his person by one of the
numerous bands of ex-soldiers who
now infest the country. But he con
soled himself with the thought that
he had still enough money in his
trunks. When his trunks arrived,
however, they contained only wood
and coal. "
That was too much for Lungu. He
became violently insane and is now
confined in an asylum.
Floating Mines In
North Sea Still Are
Menace to, Vessels
Stockholm, Dec. 6. The danger
to shionine from floating mines in
the -king: ceasing the unnecessary the North c . is ;ncreasine, accord-
Without trial; no punishment without i1" t0 the chief inspector of the
a hearing; confiscation ot property
for minor offenses. After much
arguing, all were adopted as edicts
of the Ijebus.
Whmen Dr. Overs went into
the territory, SO.OOO of the 250,000
Ijebus were slaves. He started out
to fight the slave traffic and this
aroused the hatred of the traders,
several attempts being made on his
We,
Swedish mercantile marine for that
district of navigation, who predicts
that this winter the mines will con
stitute a greater menace than at any
period since the mine fields 'were
laid.
So extensive were the mine fields
and so numerous the mines, says the
inspector, that large numbers of
them escaped destruction by the
One da native tried to inoculate I English and American mine sweep
his hand with a poison ring, but a ; ers, notwithstanding the energy and
loyal native saved him by sweeping i diligence with which they worked,
aside ; the barbarian's hand, just as I More, mines than ever before now
jr. wers rcacucu w kimu h ,jo. aim uiuuub m
Another tried to wave poison, which
had been sprinkled on a fan, into
Doctor Overs' eyes. Again a friend
ly native upset the plot.
-Every attempt failed, because of
the loyalty of the native members
nf hi hrmcehold. One of his most
highly prized possessions is a "vesq
through which the knite ot a wouia
b assassin passed. A man whose
life had been saved when he was
ill, by Dr. Overs, saved the mis
sionary's life.
Wiped Out Slavery.
But Dr. Overs continued his fight
an3 by invoking the strong arm of
the British government, virtually
wiped out the slave traffic
Only in the matter of polygamy
was no sweeping reform made. It
was almost impossible to convince
the natives of the error in their ways
because the women did all the work.
But by working with the children
in the schools and instructing them
in -the beauties of domestic life as
exemplified by the English people,
lie was able to sow the seed that
has done so much to abolish
. polygamy.
Dr. Overs was embarrassed by the
offers of wives and when he declined
the king took it as an insult. Rela
tionsbetween the two were nearly,
iroken. Dr. Overs squared matters'
by accepting a chief's son. The
transfer was made when the chief
placed the lad's hand in that of Dr.
Overs. The boy was sent to the na
tive schools and later studied at
Lagos. Now he is back teaching
and preaching the better ways to his
own people.
Dr. Overs also had to combat the
tuperstitiocs of the natives, which
ward the Swedish coast Efforts
are made to sink such mines as are
seen by shooting thenv but it is im
possible to cope with them all in
this way.
Convicted Italian Deputy
Takes Oath; Urges Revolt
Rome, Dec. 6. The socialist dep
uty, Misiano, who before his elec
tion and while he was absent from
the country was condemned by an
Italian military court to be shot for
desertion and who for a time had
been imprisoned in Germany on a
charge of participating in revolu
tionary movements, made his first
appearance in the chamber today.
When asked to take the oath he
said: "I swear, wishing for a social
revolutionary soon." Some social
ist deputies applauded this utterance,
but the remainder of the chamber
hooted.
