From Pearson's Weekly.
A recent traveller in Mexico, no visited
the mines there during his journey, saws he
was much astonished at seeing the men
who carry the ore come out of the mine
each with one eye shut.
The foreman, seeing his surprise, explain
ed the matter. He said the candles belong
ing to the tarateros CVho drill and bIast)
do not give sufficient light in the drifts
where ii is consequently quite dark, but
where, nevertheless. the tarateros see we'll
enough not TO run their heads AGAINST the
rocks. But. on emerging into daylight they
would be blinded did they not take pre-
cautionary measures
For this reason. as they approach the
mouth of the shaft, at the point where they
catch the Hrst glimpse of light, they drop
the eyelid of one eye, and keep this down
While they are discharging their ore and
Until they have redescended the shaft.
When they are again in the dark. they
open the eye kept hitherto in reserve and
al once see everything distinctly; while the
other eye, previously open and somewhat
blinded by the daylight perceives nothing

In the first place. the volunteer troops
are being detained Illegally ami in defiance
of the Constitution. They enlisted for the
Spanish war. That war is over and stu
they are detained in those islands.
Under the Constitution the Colorado vol
unteers will be perfectly justified in LAYING
down their arms where they are and re-
turning to the United States If they should
do anything like that probably they could
be court-martialed and punished under the
strict letter OF military rule but in that
event the same military rule would be
placed above the Constitution of our re-

II is regarded as possible that in the
event of the failure Of any public attempt''
which may be made to bring about the
return of the troops, the governor will re-
sort to legal proceedings. IL such proves
TO be the case, the Supreme Court may
be called upon to decide a test case re-
