The day before Thanksgiving came gray and
foggy, and one hardly knew whether IL was
warm or cold Mrs. Denslow went to and fro
In the house, looking, . little pale; She had
the day when she had climbed the ridge, and
she was beginning to feel shut mp and stifed.
A neighbor passing the house early had stopped
to say that he had heard that there had been q
sharp frost In the valley beyond the ridge. But
when Mrs. Denslow went out into her garden
she had found all her flowers bright and happy
as ever; and then suddenly the Jog seemed to
blow away, and the clear light fell on every
thing once more. Mrs. Denslow determined to
go for q walk.
Halfway down the lawn she met man who
did odd jobs here and there in the village. he
stopped and saluted her, and handed her q
letter. 1t was addressed to her in the hand.

she broke the wax The letter was very short
The roses are in bloom. Shall / send them

=, Mrs. Denslow turned back to her desk and
the messenger took a note to Prof. Churchill.
And that late November day was notable in
harmony above all the other days of the long
summer, for then did the people see the little
professor walking swiftly down the hill toward
the village, bearing in his hand branch OF a
rose tree, whereon clustered great crimson
cones whose frs GRANGE filed the air and he
went straight down the street to the old house
where the front door stood wide open to well
come him, and Mrs. Denslow waited in the
porch.

Peculiarly n Chicago Incident.

FROM the thicago sunday Tribune.
1t Is at the Union depot. Chicago. A train

number Of vessels are always anchored-coal
barges, Argentine and Chilean gun boats,
French, German and Italian ships and perhaps
great English steamer or dispatch boat. As
raining at Punta Arenas, mud or slush il al
ways ankle deep, and you might search the
world over 10 find . more dresry, desolate and
altogether uninviting place.
Among its thousand or more inhabitants Il ID
said that an interpreter for every modern LAM
guage of the world may be found. Certainly q
more polyglot community was never gotten to-
gether. Though the place belongs to Chile,
English is the language most generally spoken,
and there are Cinnamon, Germans Poles,
Swedes, French, Swiss, Italians, Americans,
negroes, Portuguese, primeval Indians,
Yankees-human hotsam and jetsam represent
ing all sorts and conditions Of men-deserters
from all navies, convicts, fugitives from justice
and shipwrecked mariners-many Of whom
would not be willing to tell you where they
came from, what their true names we're in some
other part of the world, and most of whom
would not remain another minute il they could
help it. There are few good women in the
settlement. but asfor most of the females here
poor things drinking, fighting, swearing crea-
lures OF every nationality-the least said about
them the better.
HALF-AND-HALF ISLAND.
Directly opposite Punta Arenas. just across
the harrow strait, is the largest island of the
Terra del Fuego group, two-thirds of which
ION the western side) now belongs to Chile,
while the Argentine government claims the
remainder. Only on the Australian coast could
one find a settlement completely isolated
from neighbors. On the Chilean side the near
est permanent inhabitants are on the Island OF
Chloe, fully 700 miles distant in a straight line
and good deal farther by the only practicable
route. On the Argentine side there is a miser-
able little settlement at the mouth of the Santa
Cruz river, where the government of that big
republic has thought best to hoist their pretty
blue-and-white banner in order to assert its
sovereignty over the worthless wastes of south
eastern Patagonia. 1t contains only half n
dozen wooden sheds. where few disconsolate
soldiers pass their weary days in longing for
the more genial climate of Buenos Ayres. 1t is
400 miles between that place and this and no
communication is kept up between them.
Therefore, for all practicable purposes, the
nearest civilized neighbors to the lonesome
Punta Arenians are the English colonists on the
Falkland Islands, where, in spite of the inhos-
pitable soil and climate, a number of thrifty
Britons have somehow managed to attain to
tolerable prosperity chiefly by sheep farming;
But, with an interval between of five hundred
miles OF the stOrmiest ocean on the globe, mu-
tual intercourse is neither frequent nor easy.

THE LAST OF THE ANDES
At dinner that day the captain happened to
remark that this was our very last evening
within sight of the Andes, for the ships course
would change during the night so that those
mountains would no longer be visible. We
felt as if he had said that some old-time friends
were about to bid US a final adieu, and though
snow falling and bitter wind coating
everything with ice / stole ont alone from the
well warmed cabin. where others were waltzing

faded and they became mere ghosts of noun

seemed to be keeping tryst with one who loved

There are three classes now attending there
who are not benefited. There is the wealthy
class, who go down there and are cured, and
then they find themselves out OF business. They
have no intellectual pursuits and no longer see
the enjoyments of the race course or the club,

the old habits Another class Is composed OF
