there was deficiency in judgment as

A Joyful occnsi.n TO tho People of a
Portion of Peru.

Portion of Peru.
LII the long coastal desert of Peru,
which is some 2,Ce0 miles in length,
hut only 12o miles broad at its widest
part, the rivers, Maj. A. F. Sears says,
disappear in the dry season and begin
to flow again in February or March
when rain falls IN the Cordlileras.. One
of the most important.of these rivers is
the Piura, the return of whose waters is
welcomed with great rejoicings by the
inhabitants of its banks. About the
time when "the coming of the river
is expected, says the Youths Compan-
ion, eager inquiries as to the progress
of the water are put to all persons who
chance to come from the head of the
valley, and when the water approaches
the town of Piura professions go out to
meet it, and escort it's first tricl1ling
stream down the dry river-bed with
music and fireworks. At the outskirts
of the city thousands of people greet its
arrival. The valley of the Piura is said
by Maj. Sears to produce excellent cot
ton, although its possibilities in this
respect are not well developed for lack
of systematic irrigation. Once in
period of from five to seven years rain
falls upon the coastal plain, whereupon,
with magic quickness, grass and flow
ers cover it, and cattle browse in its
pastures, but in afew weeks everything
withers, and desolation reigns once
more upon the barren sands.

rate manner. Entering the hall the bird
OF freedom with wings extended had
banner in his mouth bearing the word,
"Wecome." The stairway was trimmed
with bunting and flowers and in the hall
was large picture of Mckinley framed
in an American flag. In the other rooms
there was an abundance of bunting, and
among the large collection of flowers
was a vase Of Japanese lilies whose fra
GRANGE filled the room.
At about $50 the bands stopped
playing and Judge Walter P. Smith rose
to speak. Judge Smith said he was
credibly informed that Major Grout was
elected, and after congratulating the
voters on the result of the state election
assured them that they had made no
mistake on the local election. He then
introduced Mr. Bates, who was received
with great applause.
Mr.. Bates spoke for about 10 minutes
in most pleasing and eloquent manner.
He began by saying that this was the
proudest moment of his life and thanked
all present for the reception they were
giving him. He said that he considered
every citizen OF St. Johnsbury his friend,
no matter how humble he might be, and
tbot bo tbo ~ D(
citizen and ready and willing to do all
that the people required. For those who
voted for other candidates he had only
the kindest feelings; for those that
showed their confidence in him through
out the day and night by voting for him
he would extend most grateful thanks.
He should consider every man his master
and if he failed to do his duty at Mont
pelier it would be only through his lack
of ability. If any question arose where
opinion was divided he could not expect
to suit all the citizens, but in every case
he would act and vote as he considered
it his duty and he hoped he would make
no mistake. In closing he invited all the
people into the house to meet him and
Mrs. Bates, adding than he believed this
was the largest tea party that they
had ever had.
For the next hour the people passed
through the house to extend congratu-
lations to Mr.. and Mrs. Bates. N. M.
Johnson, George H. Cross and David
Porter assisted in receiving the guests
and the ladies served lemonade to all.
Cigars were passed around to the gentle
men and everybody went home with the
opinion that they had had one of the
best times OF their life.
