A Picturesuue Road,

Although the road to Quito is over an
almost untrodden wilderness, it presents
the grandest scenic panorama in the world.
Directly beneath the equator, surrounding
the city, whose origin is lost in the mist of
centuries, rise twenty volcanoes, presided
over by the princely Chimborazo, the low
est being 1882 feet in hight, and the
highest reaching an altitude of %, 800 feet.
Three of these volcanoes sare active, five
are dormant and twelve are extinct. No
where else on the earth's surface is such a
cluster of peaks such grand assemblage
of giants. Eighteen of the twenty are
covered with perpetual snow, and the sum-
mits Of eleven have never been reached
by living creature except the condor,
whose fight surpasses that of any other
bird. At noon the vertical sun throws a
profusion of light upon the snow-covered

AFRAID OF THE LIGHT.
A Southern Senator Who Does Queer
ThIng Thromgh Fear.

Copyright 1883. 6y Tie California 4ssoc.ated Press,
WASHINGTON, July 20th.-The action of
Senator Colquitt, in Withholding an invita-
ton sent through him 10 Congressman Nc
kinley, is being severely commented upon.
The invitation came from editor Grady,
OF the Atlanta Constitution, and Nj Buck,
railroad magnate. They wanted Mr. Nc
Kinley to tell the Southern men direct, at
the Chautauqua meeting, near Atlanta, what
he knew about protection.
In the same mail Senator Colquitt re-
ceived another invitation to Speaker Car
Isle. The latter was duly delivered, with
strong personal plea for its acceptance.
The one intended for and addressed to Mr..
Mckinley was not delivered. but quickly
pocketed by Mr.. Colquitt. The unfortu-
nate part of the Senator's action lies in the
fact that the matter was not left optional
with him, he being simply asked to act as
an agent in delivering both.
AS soon as the facts became known, ed
itor Grady sent an invitation to Mr.. Nc
Kinley direct, and Mr.. Buck supplemented
it with personal plea for the brilliant
young protectionist to come down and find
out what Southern hospitality is like
Both letters were received to-day Mr.
Buck has also placed his private car at Nc
kinley's disposal, and proposes that he
shall be treated like prince royal. The
only fair assumption about the conduct of
Senator Colquitt is to believe that he re-
garded it as political necessity He did
not care to have the people of Alabama to
judge between free trade and protection,
even when the former had the brilliant
jugglery of figures to hide its faults, such
as every one knows Speaker Carlisle is ca
pable of giving.
Replying to friend who asked about it,
Senator Colquitt said he did not want the
pernicious doctrine of protection to even
get foothold in the South thereby admit
ting that he was afraid TO have the issue
made

A MADMAN,s FREAK.
Thrilling Experience OF Excursionists on
Shenandoah Train.

"A Shenandoah Train.
HAGERsTowN (Md.), July 20th-An ex-
cursion party on the Shenandoah Valley
Railroad had a thrilling experience on
"Wednesday night of riding behind loco
motive at the throttle of which stood g.
madman.
The Shenandoah Railroad connects with
the West MARYLAND road at this place. The
excursion was TO Penmare, on the Blue
Ridge mountains, and the train was return
ing when the exciting episode occurred. 1t
was about o'clock The lamps had been
Lighted, and the train was speeding over
the mountains south OF here. Conductor
Cord was collecting tickets, when he and
the passengers were startled by the train
suddenly stopping, and a series of wild
yells from the direction of the engine. The
conductor hurried forward In the bag
gage-car he met the engineer and fireman,
their faces blanched with terror. Just then
the train began slowly moving.
My God u exclaimed the engineer,
there is crazy man in the cab"
Then he excitedly related how, at sta
ton Just passed, the man had jumped on
the tender, and covering the engineer and
fireman with pistol, had forced them to
leave and climb back into the baggage car
No time was to be lost All the brakes
were held down. The train was moving
slowly. The conductor jumped to the
ground, while the engineer climbed back
over the tender. The conductor picked up
a large stone and called to the crazy man
TO jump down. The latter responded with
