Emin Pasha and the Khartoum Mystery Rise in Africa
The article surveys Emin Pasha’s disputed status after his 1890–91 movements in central Africa. It traces his expedition from Bagamoyo to Tabora and Bujoba, notes rumors of his advance on Khartoum, and discusses German repudiation, Idris Selim Bey’s forces, and the precarious Mahdist state. It ends with a brief note on a Maryhill Bay disinfectant and deodorant being manufactured from blackstone shale byproducts.
