 "lf Re kin only hold 'em till their hides Jet wet b'liews we've got en-" Old Jte says.
 But it wasn't to be. Something gives them n scare and away they go. No soone, are the leaders checked than others turn leaders, and the whole herd goes laundering after them. Another mill is formed and the same perform ance l,one over again. Once a buffalo trail hlled with water checks them, again an arroyo running breast deep is no obstacle. During Hull between runs, an animal walks out alone towards the riders. By flash Old Joe recognizes the di ln steer that gave the warning, and imme aiately the old man accuses the brute of being the instigator of all the troub e, and VOWS he must die tomor- row.
 So the night wears away. The runs grow shorter; occasionally an anImal be- gins to eat. The rain is over, though the clouds still hang heavy. The light ming has ceased and the riders sit still and nlotionless, unable to see even the heads of the horses they ride. Water stands everywhere, and the cattle begin grazing in all directions. The foreman gives orders to ride away, as our pres ence would only serve to stir up and scatter the herd.
 Sol he unstable. Ioll up in their wet blanle cts and sleep. Others light pipes and cigarettes and begin watching for signs of the coming morning. With the first tray streaks in the east horses are saddled and the crew gather around for orders; then for the first time it is dis covered that two men are missing, The outfit scatters, and al soon as it is light enough to see, begin throwing together all ca tie in sight. The practiced eyes soon discover that we are 'out" part of the herd, Herders are selected from those whose horses are most jaded and the rest scatter again, this time to 'cut for sign. A big trail is soon located, and the finder makes the fact known by rid ing back and forth upon it. It is easily followed through the deep mud and broken weeds. Here where the ground is trsmped in all directions is where the boys "milled" them. Again where the arroyo makes a bend they held them awhile. As we gain an elevation over which the trail ran, two miles away we sec the missing men and cattle. The bunch is driven to the main herd, and camp located by the smoke, which is rising straight as chimney.
 After a hot breakfast, during which all t,ll their experiences of the night and Old Joe swears for the hundredth tiroe that this is his last trip on the trail, beds are dried, fresh horses caught, the herd is tallied and found correct, and once more we head for Ogalalla.

The disturbances in Chile. growing out of
differences of opinion existing between
President Balmaceda and the members of his
Cabinet and the Chilean Congress-, have
reached that point at which the President
has found it necessary to issue prOclama-
ton. setting forth the rights, duties and re-
sponsibilitIes in connection with his posi-
ton, and his determination to enforce his
powers under the Constitution at all hazards
The proclamation was published in Chilean
paper called the " Ferrocarril de Santiago"

given in full. but the following is brief
synopsis OF a translation made by ex-
Chilean Consul Francisco Secund0 Cas-

pied by President Balmaceda at home, and

The President finds himself on the first
day of January, 1891, endeavoring to main
tain the Government of Chile under the
same conditions that existed during the
month of January and portion of the
month of February, 1887, without any law
governing appropriations, and without the
law which yearly arranges for the DISPOSE
ton of the sea and land forces. In fact,
this has been, with one exception, the con-
dtiOn of affairs since 1888. Until now, no
one has ever believed that the Presidents of
the republic were tyrants or dictators, SIM
ply because while Congress has neglected
to fulfill its constitutional duty the govern
ing power has been constitutionalIy dis
pensed to maintain order in the Interior and
the safeguard of the republic abroad. He
quotes Article so of the Constitution, which
says that the President of the republic is

his authority and designating the respons-

WOMEN'S WRONGS.

What the Fair Sex Have to Endure In
Different Countries.
Although among the BedouinS wife is
considered as a slave, singleness is looked
upon as disgrace.
Persian women have little education and
are reared in seclusion and ignorance,
knowing nothing beyond the walls of the
house.
Hindoo women are forbidden to read or
write. Indeed, those who dare to indulge
in such luxuries are often accidentally"
missing.
In China a wife is never seen by her
future master. Some relative bargains for
the girl, the stipulated price is paid and she
is afterWard a submissive slave.
In Turkey woman is held in the most
rigid secusiOn. She must always appear
yelled. With pigs ana dogs, she is forbid
den to enter mosque, and the Kora de-
clares the woman who is unmarried to be in
q state of reprobation.
Siberian woman are raised as abject slaves,
untidy in dress, and are bought wiih.money
or cattle. The most capricious within of her
husband is law, and should the latter desire
divorce he has only to tear the cap from
her head.
Among the Congo negroes, when man
wants wife he secures one and keeps her
on probation year II her temper and de-
pertinent are satisfactory he, at the end of
the year, formally marries her But should
she prove an incumbrance he sends her
back to the parental rcof.-EX.
