AN EXHIBITION SENSATION
LOBENGULA ON VIEW.
LONDON, August 13
Among the attractions of the Greater Britain Exhibition at Earl's Court are parties of natives representative of the different tribes of South Africa.
A white woman named Jewell obtained a marriage license and made all preparations for the marriage, which caused a sensation to the officiating clergyman and the managers of the Exhibition. When it was discovered the bridegroom was Logen-g-ula, the Matabele chief, one of the members of the Kaffir Kraal at the Exhibition, the license was revoked.
