These
monkeys
are
a
kind
of
small
chimpanzee
,
which
in
Central
Africa
has
received
the
name
of
"
sokos
.
"
They
have
low
foreheads
,
clear
yellow
faces
,
and
high-set
ears
,
and
are
very
ugly
examples
of
the
simiesque
race
.
They
live
in
bands
of
a
dozen
,
bark
like
dogs
,
and
are
feared
by
the
natives
,
whose
children
they
often
carry
off
to
scratch
or
bite
.
In
passing
the
liane
bridge
they
never
suspected
that
,
beneath
that
mass
of
herbs
which
the
current
bore
onward
,
there
was
a
little
boy
who
would
have
exactly
served
to
amuse
them
.
The
preparations
,
designed
by
Dick
Sand
,
were
very
well
conceived
,
because
these
clear-sighted
beasts
were
deceived
by
them
.
Twenty
miles
farther
on
,
that
same
day
,
the
boat
was
suddenly
stopped
in
its
progress
.

"
What
is
the
matter
?
"
asked
Hercules
,
always
posted
at
his
oar
.
"
A
barrier
,
"
replied
Dick
Sand
;
"
but
a
natural
barrier
.
"
"
It
must
be
broken
,
Mr.
Dick
.
"
"
Yes
,
Hercules
,
and
with
a
hatchet
.
Several
islets
have
drifted
upon
it
,
and
it
is
quite
strong
.

"
To
work
,
captain
!
to
work
!
"
replied
Hercules
,
who
came
and
stood
in
the
fore-part
of
the
perogue
.
This
barricade
was
formed
by
the
interlacing
of
a
sticky
plant
with
glossy
leaves
,
which
twists
as
it
is
pressed
together
,
and
becomes
very
resisting
.
They
call
it
"
tikatika
,
"
and
it
will
allow
people
to
cross
watercourses
dry-shod
,
if
they
are
not
afraid
to
plunge
twelve
inches
into
its
green
apron
.
Magnificent
ramifications
of
the
lotus
covered
the
surface
of
this
barrier
.
It
was
already
dark
.
Hercules
could
,
without
imprudence
,
quit
the
boat
,
and
he
managed
his
hatchet
so
skilfully
that
two
hours
afterward
the
barrier
had
given
way
,
the
current
turned
up
the
broken
pieces
on
the
banks
,
and
the
boat
again
took
the
channel
.
