fact that the police of Chile are armed only
with wooden clubs, and carry no pistols or
knive. at any time The fact is that the attack
was the work OF mob, composed probably OF
the lower classes, who are bitter in their feeling
toward this country.
What has led to this feeling?
Well, mainly, should say, the action of Ad-
miral Brown in spying upon the movements of
the insurgents and furnishing Balmaceda with
information. That this is true | will assert most
positively. and | know that the admiral in

How many people realize that Amer
lean tourists leave in this country from
twelve to twenty million sterling at
least per annum? Such is the fact.
Does anybody imagine that they come
here to look at our buildings and
streets? No. Upon reflection, nobody
can fail to see that the main reason
why the bulk of them visit us is to sec
the places made memorable by Shake

ems and Thaclcray, George Eliot and
Charlotte Bronte, Blackmorc and
Black. The Indebtedness Of Gradgrind
to romance is, therefore, by no means
inconsidcra bic, particularly when it is
remembered that we, too, spend con-
siderable sum yearly in the same di2cc-

slowed millions of pounds on the in
habitants of those places with which
his name is associated. Not to mention

knows, are many buildings and dis
tricts made famous by the crc-
ator of the Pickwick Club. To
this neighborhood American pilgrims
come in shoals, either before going or
after having gone around such bits OF

were they mistaken in their auguries.
An unheard-of influx of water bibbcrs
forthwith crowned their hopes; and
