What really renders that first journey up the Uganda Railway remarkable is the quantity of game you see in the reserve — kongoni, Grant and Thomson's gazelles, zebra, in vast numbers; now and then ostriches, a herd of Wildebeest, or a string of giraffe; sometimes a lion or a rhino. These animals do not fear the train, so you get a good View of them; but you must not conclude that they are as easy of approach when you are on foot. On arriving in most countries there is usually one question for which the newcomer should be prepared. In Sydney I am told he must admire the fine harbour; in Ireland he will probably be asked what he thinks about Home Rule or William the Third; and in British East Africa he will soon be asked what he thinks about the Uganda Railway. The carriage I travelled up in leaked in a rainstorm, and I said what I thought of the Uganda Railway in language that could not be mistaken. But I soon saw that this was not what I was meant to say.
