THE COMPASS PLANT.

"Among the many wonders of the
Western plains," said Garrett c.
Houghes, of Boulder, Col, at the Linden,
recently, nothing strikes the traveller
of a scientific turn of mind with more
surprise than the compass plant. The
leaves of this singular plant are mag
netic and point constantly to the north
These wonderful prairie guides have, on
numerous occasions, proved to be an
inestimable benefit to the travellers who
have strayed away from their camp and
companions and found themselves lost
on the plains. In 1860, while on my way
to the Rocky Mountains by wagon
train, party of us, who had left camp
on hunt for antelope, lost our way ow-
ing to a dark stormy night oyertaking
us. We knew that our wagon train
was camped ten miles to the northwest
of where we were thus overtaken. The
night was as dark as pitch, and we were
beginning to be alarmed when one of our
number happened to think of the co:--~
pass plant and its singular peculiafity
We at once dismounted and groped about
in the dark, till at last our hands
came in contact with the famil-
lar leaves of the plant. 1t was
but a short calculation till we
turned their horses heads in the right di-
rection toward the camp, which we had
the satisfaction of reaching in about
two hours. but not until we had dis
mounted several times to feel among the
leaves of this friendly guide to make sure
of our course. .''-"St. Louis Globe-Demo-

fixed so that the inmates need have no
more fear of their falling down.
No. only underwent general renovat-
ing in the shape OF painting. kalsomin-
ing, and slight repairs to the furnaces,
but S4i5 was appropriated for it just the
same.
No High School Building had sl,l72
spent upon its walls in masonry work,
painting kalsomining. etc. and the school
rooms have been all fixed, while the
doard rooms have been made TO feseih-
die palatial staterooms.
For No. 6, $967 was appropriated, ana
that old institution could very easily
have had twice that amount spent upon
it. 1t has been painted inside, the fur
naces repaired. teachers rooms carpeted
and enlarged. and number of other
minor but necessary repairs
OLDEST ON THE HILL.
No IL School. which is the Oldest
school in the city. was badly in need OF
having its exterior walls cementea, It's
brick fences rebuilt. the furnaces clean
ed, new sanitary work done, floors re-
laid and an innumerable amount OF re-
pairing done, but only Sl,O62 was allow
ed for it. and the building in consequence
has not had the repairs it should nave
had. However, 1t is much better than
last season, and next year it will be
thoroughly overhauled. No. IL Annex
had S1SS appropriated for its use, but
it only needed a little painting and sani-
tary plumbing, and $64 was all that it
required.
No. u School took most of the 1925
that was given to it for repairs in fix
ing up it's iron railing around the build
ing and proping up its chimneys and
flagstaff The interior of the building
was also painted and repaired generally.
No. Is had the largest appropriation of
all, the amount being $500. This school
had new furnaces put in and equipped
throughout with steam heating out
side of this no other repairs of any
note were made This school will not
be ready for pupils before October l.
No l6 had $465 spent upon it's building.
Outside of a fresh coat OF paint upon the
interior walls no other repairs are no
ticeable. No. II had only $41.10 spent upon
it for kalsomining and cleaning it up
generally. No. 10 spent ..75 in the same
manner, with some sanitary pluming.
No q had 1854 appropriated, No. q,
$546.3O; No. %, s735, and No. "a, $3.50. All
these schools We're repaired in the same
manner. being repainted, kalsomined,
more or less plumbing done, and gen
eral repairs made to the rooms through
out.
All together the money appropriated
has been we'll spent and the Board of
Directors have worked very hard.
One instance worthy of note is the case
of kalsomining No. 10 School After Dr.
Allen had received bids, ranging form $50
to S95, he looked around until he found
man who offered to do it for $l5. The man
who bid S95 said it was a city job and
they could pay for it. He is one OF the Re-
publican reformers so the doctor says.

BOLIVIAN BARBARI2Y.
Indians Drink Human Blood and
Eat Human Flesh Gold
Finds.

PANAMA, Aug &c. .1S94-The Star
and Herald prints the following de-
tails of the recent double murder by
Indians in Bolivia
The Indians of Carangas killed the
magistrate of the Court of Oruro, Senior
Arce, and his son, who was with him.
The unfortunate men, seeing the menac-
ing attitude of the Indians, took refuge
in a priests house. which was surround
ed by the Indians, who threatened to
set fire to it. Having held counsel
of martyrdom they resolved that the life
of the son should be taken first, and in
the presence of the father. They clipped
out his tongue, extracted his eyes and
otherwise tortured him until he was
dead. AS the blood flowed from the
body they caught it in horn cups and
drank it with avidity.
They then put the father to death in
a like horrible manner. A carnival of
cannibalism was then held over the
bodies until the flesh was eaten to the
bones. This account of such inhuman
barbarities occurring within the region
of civilization is almost incredible. This
story also seems to explain the reason
for report that it was ex-President
Arce, who is at present in Chilli, who
had been assassinated. but as has been
made known already, it was name
sake of his that was the victim of these
Indians, and the unfortunate magis-
trate was the man.
Advices from Chile to the Star and
Herald say.-On the 8th of June a ter
rible storm passed over the Island of
Juan Fernandez. destroying the wharf
and doing much damage generally. The
national steamer Tarapaca has been
wrecked in the shadows of Pichidam
qui. She was bound for Iquique with a
general cargo.
In Socuimbo the gold fever continues,
developing in an enthusiastic manner.
Andacillo is not the only place that
gold has been struck, but at Crude
Canas also, where the range is in
virgin state. In many parts of the
Province of Ancud gold has also been
struck. A man named Arana recently
obtained from fifteen men in that many
days $4,000 worth of the yellow metal.
The gold is said to be very fine, and the
indications are that it exists in great
quantities.
A rush has set in from all parts in con-
sequence. The government will construct
a lighthouse on the Island of Los Evan
gelistes" at the western entrance of the
Straits of Magellan, in September, which
will permit steamers proceeding from
New Zealand to pass through the Straits
instead of going round Cape Horn as
is the case now. The steamer Longavi,
belonging to the Compania Sud-Ameri-
cana, while bound from Cershue to the
North ran on rock during a dense
fog and Is d total wreck. Many lives
were lost, but the exact number is un-
known

WAR TN BLUEFIBLDS.
American Troops Land to Pro-
teet Our Interests-Spaniards
in Possession.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. %, 1S94.-A few
days ago brief dispatches received from
Managua, Nicaragua, stated that Blue
fields had been taken by a Nicaraguan
army. Nothing else has been heard Of
ficially.
A letter received yesterday by Mr.. H.
Ingram, a native of Bluefelds, who is
studying dentistry in this city, conveys
some interesting details, among them
the fact that not only We're the natives
driven out of Bluefields, but Uncle Sans
marines likewise. the latter retiring to
the Columbia and the Marblehead, leav-
ing only British marines to protect for
eign interests in the town.
The letter is from Ingram's brother,
James R. Ingram, a member of the Blue
fields Banana Company and one of the
influential residents of the turbulent
town. The date is four days later than
the invasion of the town by the Nicara-
guans.
U. S. TROOPS LANDED.
After speaking of the approach of the
invading Spaniards in their steam
launches, Mr.. Ingram says:-"In less
than no time all Bluefields was alarm
ed. 1t happened that the United States
cruisers Columbia land Marblehead and
H. MS Mohawk We're outside the bar,
and the respective captains landed men.
Some of the Marblehead's men were
ashore before. The captain of the Mo-
hawk called an assembly of people IN
town and told them not to fire. He told
those who wanted protection to go where
his soldiers were; that is where we used
to play cricket; and you may believe me,
almost the whole of Bluefields was. up
there by the next two days. In fact, it
was like a city.
AT last the Spaniards landed and all
was quiet. They ordered, you may say,
Captain O'Neill of the Marblehead to
quit the Government House, and the next
day he left but is still out at the bluff.
AMERICAN INTERESTS.
The other American Captain, seeing
that withdrew his troops, who were at
the Masonic Hail. and left Immediately.
So the Englishman was left alone. The
Englishman had to go to Port Limon to
cable; so he told us that who ever wanted
protection should go on the ship, and he
had in all 800 people. He left some of
his men to protect his consul, Mr.. Hatch"
The remainder of the letter deals with
the hosting of the flag of the invading
Nicaraguans and the establishment in
says that American interests in Bluefields
are considerable, being, in fact, paramount
to htose of any other foreign nation.

HUNTINGTON, L. l., Aug. %, 1s94.-A

hopes of her recovery
Mrs. Kelsey resided with her two children

terribly burned in its efforts to assist its
mother, but the doctors are hopeful for the
child's recovery. The burning oil also set
