Adventure Of a Widower.
This letter is peculiarly rambling, and SO
I venture to'refer here to a singular circum-
stance which witnessed in the cars last
week An elderly man got on at Jasper.
He was going to Archy. The less people
travel the more they are overcome and hor-
rifed with short journey: From the fuss
made over it you would have thought that
this man was going to the Holy Land to
visit the home of some of the broad humor
lists of the Old Testament. He stood in the
door and kissed nine grown up women in an
explosive way, and said goodby to them
with real tears in his eyes He was kind
old man, with faded place on the back of
his neck where the long hair had shaded it
all winter, but where the barber had been
at work and fixed him all up.
He was all excited with the prospect, and
after he had kissed quite large delegation
of his neighbors he came in with his black
enameled valise, containing his other vest
and some doughnuts, and as the train started
up he gave lurch and sat down in the lap
of middle-aged lady who was holding a
little bracket made of a cigar box with
iackknife. 1t took six long months in the
uncertain light of the penitehtiary for her

stranger in this splendid capital hardly
knows where to begin a systematic round of
sightseeing, so numerous and varied are the
points of interest. An all-day's excursion
is but as drop in the bucket, and after a
month of diligent hunting he learns that
there are "lions" yet unvisited
For ourselves, let US commence with the
famous Cerro de Santa Lucia, an illustra-
tion of which accompanied my last letter.
For 81 an hour one may secure as handsome
a coach, coupe or landau as the city con-
tains, with smart jehu and pair of we'll
groomed horses; or, if not particular about
style and disposed to be economical, he may
get one good enough for the purpose for
half that sum. Our way lies along Santi-
ago's greatest glory-the beautiful Alameda;
and indeed, doubt if any city in the world
can show so fine public promenade. 1t
runs east and west through the heart of the
city, from Santa Lucia to the Exposition
Park, a distance of about four miles.

rows of enormous poplars, whose roots are
watered by noisy streams dancing along
each side, which are confined in deep chan
nels Of brick and cement, crossed by in

The venerable widower crushed it whe1
| he fell, and mourn came up from the sore
| heart of the boys lonely mother. Quite Q
| number of thoughtless people laughed
when they heard the little bracket go by the
board, but they would if they had known
! its sorrowful history.
The farmer apelogized over and ovel
again, and his tenderness made the widow
weep a little more till she had to tell him
the sad story, and then she showed him a
paper. He wiped off his specs eight times
before he got through with it. Then he
bought the widow big red apple. and
when the brakeman howled "Archy!' he
did not get out, but went past with the
widow toward her home. Possibly in the
Indian summer of her life she will bless the
day when the gentle hearted amateur
traveller sat down on the poor little bracket,
and he also will cease to regret it, Quien
Sabe-as the feller says.
An Alderman Who Was Weary.
Not long ago met wealthy ex-Alder-
man of New York in Colorado. He was of
Celtic extraction, but American by instinct
He was travelling for his health in the fast
nesses of the grand old Rocky mountains
He had made fort me in the beautiful city
of Denver by simply buying lots when other
people felt like selling, and selling while
the others were feeling like buying.
We were soon pretty good friends. He
said that his greatess grief came to him now
because with all his money he hadn't the
keen zest for enjoying it that he had in the
blessed old days when he had an appetite
and no money. "Now," said he, 81 have

rain on the dusty road. hate the smell of

sanitary arrangements. In fact, be GOb,"

DISPATCHES TO THE NATIONS.
How They Are Received and Sent Out at
Secretary Blaine's Offico.


All dispatches of international importance
are written by Mr.. Blaine with his own
hand. Each communication of the sort he
indites in the shape of a rough draft, which
is apt to be. full of corrections and inter-
lineations. This goes to a copyist, who re-
produces it in fair and beautiful script on
big sheets of fine linen paper. Next it is
copied into the record books, after the Sec
retary of State has signed it; but if it is
to be sent by telegraph, the pretty copy on
linen paper is omitted, the record book only
preserving a transcript of it for future ref
erence if needed.
A single wire connects the Office with the
Western Union, and an operator is always
at hand to receive and transmit messages to
all parts of the world at cut Government
rates. When dispatches. arrive they are
handed over by the chief clerk to the
officials for whom they are properly in
tended, and such of them as require transla-
tion are given for that purpose to Mr..
Thomas, the polyglot official translator for
the department. There are others who as
sist him in this work, But he is responsible
for it all

Mr.. and Mrs. William Derringer, of Wat
son, Clark County, Ind, are the parents of
a boy two months old who weighs only two
pounds and is but 16 inches tall. His head
is 10S inches in circumference. The child's
face is wrinkled and resembles that of an
old man, while thick fuzz covers the face
and forehead. He enjoys good health.

attend church in military uniform or the
dress of private citizen-he freed the
country from the rule of Spain, ayerted
threatened revolution, gave character and
dignity to the National Government, and
succeeded in uniting all the interests of the
different factions. When at the zenith Of
his power, and recognized as the central
figure of the country around whom all other
leaders revolved he resigned the Presi-
dency, which he had held for six years, in
order to appease the wrath of few church
dignitaries who threatened to bring on civil
war. Oh for a. Barney O'Higgins at this

Other Leading Men From Ireland.
Speaking of Chileno-Irishmen, there was
Patrick Lynek, who was the foremost SOL
dier of the country during the war of ten
years ago; and from old Ambrose O'Hig-
gins, grandfather of the later patriot, down
to the O'Learys and McGarrys, and scores
of other families now prominent in politics
men were descended from the Emerald Isle.
Fronting the Alameda are some of the
most splendid palaces of this proud old cap
ital Casas which cost $500, 900 to build and
as much more to finish are common here.
Many are of carved sandstone, fully 200 feet
square, with the inevitable central patio.
Some have two, even three patios, one be-
hind another, so that the vista of orange
trees, palms and blossoming shrubs, fount-
aims, flowers and statuary, is most charming,
as seen from the great arched doorway,
which is usually closed by a high gate Of
gilded iron bars. We have visited a num-
Der of these mansions; and will tell you
something of their interior another time.
El Cerro de Santa Lucia is a strange, steep
hill of solid rock, cast by some volcanic
freak into the center of the great plain on
which the city stands, and rises abruptly to
the height of nearly a thousand feet. 1t is
surrounded at the base by lofty wall,
which zig-zags like battlemented fortress
