Synopsis

Bwana Brown, a member of the Explorer's Club, speaks at a meeting of an African tribe who will give gold and diamonds to anyone who can prove they are immortal. The explorers ask for the location of this tribe, figuring to impress the natives with modern gadgets and pass the test, but Bwana Brown refuses to tell them. One of the hunters attempts to kill him with a spear, and afterward steals the map. He finds the tribe and agrees to their test, but they cut off his head. Bwana Brown says to his friends "Pity he didn't ascertain that I actually was immortal before he tried to kill me."
