London, May 30. Northern Rhodesia is this week changing its capital, when Lusaka, 2 town planned and built from the bush, takes the place of Livingstone.
The Legislative Council Chamber and administrative offices will open in Lusaka to-morrow, and eventually the central official'activities whi have been conducted during the ps 24 years at Livingstone, will be transferred there.
The progress of the settlement and mining in the territory has lett Livingstone far too south of the Northern Rhodesian main population and the transfer had been effected with a view to present convenience and future needs.
It is expected that Lusaka wit! steadily develop as the centre of the mining and farming activities—Wireless through Reuter.
