at the town of Bodegas the other day.
There were hundreds of tons of dirty
salt banked up in large barn-like rooms,
and 1 saw some being weighed out
scales. 1t cost the government, 1 am

revenue from this source amounts to
about 100000 year.
Ecuador schools and Cemeteries.
Ecuador has now public school
system, but only about one-tenth of
the people, as 1 have said, can read
and write. There are in the country in
the neighborhood of 1000 primary
schools and also a number of these of
higher gra ades. The children in these
schools all study out loud, and the din
is as great as that of the schools of
China. Quito has a university, largely
managed by Jesuits, and there is also
a college at the city of Cuenca. Here
at GuayaQuil there are two newspapers,
both of which get short cable dis
patches. The papers are cried by news
boys on the streets. They are printed
on old American presses from type
made in the United States, although
their paper and ink come, ] am told,
from Germany. Among the other insti-
tutionS of Ecuador are a hospital here
and hospital, a lunatic and leper
asylum at Quito. The cemetery at

whiskered German came out to Ecua-
dor some years ago determined to
learn the process. He went to Quito
and then made his way eastward to
the Indian country. Since then he has
never been seen, but it is said that
about three months after his disap-
pearance a head beautifully cured was
brought in for sale. 1t was of lighter
complexion than the one on my table
and the features were German in cast,
while on the chin was beard of the
same brick dust hue as that of the
German explorer. From native sources
/ learn that the Indians cure the heads
after they have removed the bones by
filling them with hot pebbles and pass
ing them from hand to hand, pressing
them so CAREFUL inward that In
shrinking they do net lose their shape.
After this they are baked in the sand
and so treated that they will last for
ages. The skin of the neck Of this head
is about one-sixth of an inch thick.
Its pretty ears are about the size of a
silver quarter, and as l. push back it's
hair and look at it's closed eyes l al
most fear that it will open them and
glare at me.

iron manufactures in Ecuador, and all
iron work and hardware must be i'm
ported. Theres are a few water mills
near Quito which weave cotton, linen
and Woolen goods, and also silk hat

plug hats and black kid gloves.
Here at Guayaquil there are a num-

CHAPTER xxxv.
Explanation.

The cause of Lucetta's joy was soon
explained. Mr.. Ostrander had not fall
en- victim to Mr. Trohm's mania, but
was in x. alive and well. That Mr..
Gryce knew this at the time of showing
her the telegram was apparent to me
and probably suspected by her, but no
words were ever exchanged on the sub
ject, possibly because she was soon
made too happy by her lovers expla-
nation to regret anything which had
led up to this satisfying hour.
He, so 1t seems, had found it impos
sible to leave Lucetta. Upon issuing
from Lost Mans lane he had met Mr..
Gryce and learned enough from him
Of the doubtful position in which the
Kno1lys stood to make his stay seem
imperative. even at the risk of losing
the position upon which all the hopes
cf his future advancement depended.
He had therefore stayed, but quietly and
to degree in hiding, place having
been found for him by Mr.. Gryce in a
remote cottage, where his presence at
comment. That Mr.. Gryce had any ul-
terror motive in this, regarding him as
possible witness whose testimony
might be of value, will not even sug-
gest. Mr.. Gryce never neglects it, but
Mr.. Gryce understands his business.
and Mr. Gryce has a heart, too, and that
cheart has way Of working, even amid
his most urgent affairs, in a manner to
bring light out Of darkness as well for
the happiness Of those concerned as for
the elucidation of the mystery he has
undertaken to clear.
The hour we all spent together late
that night In the old house was unlike
any hour which that place has seen for
years. Mr.. Ostrander, Lucetta, Loreen.
William, Mr.. Gryce and myself all were
there, and as an especial grace Saracen
was allowed to enter, that there might
not be cloud upon a single face there
assembled. Though 1t is a small mat
ter, will add that this dog persisted
in lying down by my side, not yielding
even to the wiles Of his master, whose
amusement over this fact kept him
goOd-natured to the last adieu.
There were too few candles in the
house to make it bright, but Lucetta's
unearthly beauty, the peace in Loreen's
soft eyes, made us forget the somber-
ness of our surroundings and the
meagerneSs of the entertainment Han
nah attempted to offer us. It was the
promise Of coming joy, and when, our
two guests departed, bade good night

RUSSIAN DIPLOMACY.
Further Conditions Respecting the
~ Ta-Lion- Wan Lease.
IT rs TO REMAIN AN OPEN PORT.

The Chinese Much FIattered by tho
Concessions, Which Are CleverIy De-
signed to Conciiiate the Trading Ma
tions-Japan withdraws Opposition.
London, March 26.-The Pekin cor
respondent of The Times explains that
his statement of Thursday as to the
concession to Russia of a 25 year lease
of Ia Lien-Wan as an open port should
have read as an ice free port. He
adds: "At the tsung-li-yamen Chinese
foreign office) further conditions were
agreed upon respecting the Ta-Lien-
Wan lease. Russia agrees that the
port shall be open to ships and the
commerce Of the whole world, with a
customs tariff similar to that OF a
Chinese treaty port, although its ad-
ministration and collection will be the
same as at any other Russian port.
China having represented that Ia
Lien-Wan is certain to supplant Niu
Chwang as the chief port of Man
churia and cause loss In the imperial
customs revenue, Russia undertaking
to contribute to the Chinese govern
ment the balance Of the customs col
lected at Ta-Lien- Wan. after payment
of expenses.
Though this arrangement Is obvi-
ously temporary, the Chinese are much
fattered by the concessions. The con-
ditions generally are cleverly designed to
conciliate the trading nations while
Russia will consolidate her power and
strengthen her base prior to the abb
sorption of Manchuria. Russia has no.
titled China that Japan has WITHDRAWN
opposition to Russian action as to the
Leao-Tong ports in consideration OF
Russia's withdrawal from Corea."
The Russians. according to special
dispatch from Shanghai. having order
ed the Chinese to leave Port Arthur,
the mandarins and soldiers are bolt
ing pell nell, with their baggage. to

burg, will shortly proceed through the
Bosphorous for Chinese waters.
