IN BOLIVIA.
Chupe, an Uncertain Kind of Irish
Stew, Is the National Dish.

SAupr, AL ShceTtAih hlnu OF lTlAh
Stew. Is the National Dish.
The stoves of the Bolivian Indians
are curious things. A hole is dug in
the ground about IS inches deep and q
foot square, and over this is built a
roof of clay with holes of different
sizes to receive the various cooking
pots. Roasting is done on spits passed
through the holes, SO that the meat
m out very much smoked unless
great care is taken to have only live
Goals at the bottom of the oven. The
national dish, and the common food of
the masses, is %"chupe," a sort of first
cousin to the Irish stew. 1t is a con-
glomerate composed of irregular con-
stituents from the animal n vege-
table kingdoms-a mess Of mutton and
such other meats as are available;
chicken, fish, fruits, potatoes, carrots,
barley, corn, rice, onions, yams, ETC.,
chopped up, highly seasoned with pep
pers and herbs, and stewed to a con-
sistency of porridge. What happens to
be left from one meal SINNERS in the
pot until the next. If the fire goes out
the "chupe" is allowed to cool, but 1t
is warmed up again. and a new supply
of the ingredients added to the water
logged and greasy stuff for the next
meal. In the cities, at the hotels and
restaurants where there are French OK
Swiss cooks the ""chupe" is savory and
palatable, but the further you go from
the centers of civilization the worse 1t
gets. One eats it first under protest,
Their from necessity, and only to escape
starvation; but finally the stomach re-
bells, and you limit your diet to boiled
eggs and fruit, which are usually to be
obtained; but the experienced travel
err always takes canned meat and bread
with him.-Chicago Record.

UGLY RUMORS AFLOAT.

Cape Town, Jan. 1.-Ugly rumors are
in circulation of a Dutch rising with
the object of Selling Cape Town and
the docks and capturing the governor
of Cape Colony, Sir Alfred Milnerf The
center of the movement is said to be
Paarl, a village about 80 miles from
Cape Town, where a meeting of the
Afrikander bund was held yesterday.
A similar meeting was held in Rich
mond, December 90, and it is reported
the members of the bund of these two
towns are acting in concert.
Members Of the bund at Wellington
and the Dutch in Clan William district
are said to be armed with Mausers and
to be anxious to use them in behalf of
the Beers. Although the stories Of a
rising are discredited, the police and
military are taking ample precautions.

WRONG IDEAS ABOUT CAMELs.
Their Ability to Go without wator Is
Greatly O~vsrrated.


There are many fables told abou
the camel. Riding him is supposed to
make people seasiCk. He has the repu-
tation of being very vicious. He Is
supposed to have several stomachs,
and to go for several weeks without
water as a matter of choice. | can
only say that in nearly four years of
experience | have never met with a
case of seasickness or heard of it;
neither have | known a really vicious
camel, except when they are in a state
called by the Arabs "saim,' which
means fasting and corresponds to
the "rutting' periods in stays. AS re-
CARDS the camel's stomach, l believe
1t is technically the same as that of
any other rumlnant, or that, at any
rate, there is no formation of stomachs
which would enable him to do without
water. His abstinence is merely the
result of training, and 1t is a fallacy to
suppose that he is better without water
or can work as well. In the camel
corps we watered our camels every sec
ond day in the summer, every third
day in winter, giving them their fill or
water morning and evening on those
days, but If in the summer we expected
a long desert march without water we
trained them beforehand by n
watering every third day. But l
never found that this improved their
condition The Arabs keep their cam
els longer without water, it is true, but
then they travel slower, and their ami
mails are grazed on soft food, contain
ing a certain amount of moisture. This
lowers their condition and makes them
inferior to a corn-fed camel when hard
work and long, fast journeys have to
be done. We always found that II we
put a CRASHED Arab camel alongside
Of ours 1t failed in work and endur-
ance. II corn-fed, it cried out for
water as soon as and ooner than ours
did. l say cried out" because a
camel, when 1t wants water, means
continually, and there is no more pain
full sound at night in the desert than
the ceaseless moaning of thirty cam
els.-Cornhill Magazine.

A CRISIS IN CHINA.


The expected falling out between the
powers in China seems to have come,
and a crisis Is imminent With unity OF
purpose and harmonious action the var
ious governments would have been able
to settle the difficulty permanently. but
with the existing jealouses, there can
be no settlement only a postponement
OF serious trouble TO some future time
Russia has automatically declared its
approval Of the United States policy
which is opposed to landgrabbing. but
IL ia not believed that this Is made In
good faith. Russia's diplomats may
later find 1t convenient TO change their
tactics. 1t is believed that none Of the
powers at present desire the actual dis
memberment OF the empire, but that
they rather are waiting for an oppor-
tunlty OF getting the best Of the others,
and In this there Is danger Of a future
collision
What is most remarkable in the pres
ent situation is the fact that Russia and
the United States stand together In this
alignment Of the powers. There has
been much talk lately OF the AngIo-saX-
on race against tie world. But In the
present crisis. Il Is not Great Britain

VETERANS AND PENSIONS.

All the accounts OF the Grand Army
parade In Chicago agree that IT gave
evidence OF the rapid passing away OF
the ola veterans OF the civil War The
gathering Is said 10 have been the best
attended since the historical review To
Washington In 1865 yet, the feeble step
was noticed and here and There
veteran dropped out OF the line eN-

was considerably shorter than usual

was tenderly removed, while bis COM

And no wonder Il 10 now 35 years

grown up around them only a few
years more. ana they viii all have an
awered the final call.
But while the ranks OF the veterans
are gradually thinning out, the ranks
Of pensioners are not growing less
dense, TO any perceptible degree. On
June 30th last there were 993 52s on the
pension lists. 300 more than the pred-
Gus year. and the number OF claims
stlll pending foot up the enormous
amount Of 4371Oi Nearly 20 per cent
Of the total revenue Of the United
states is paid out in pensions over
thirty years after the Ciyil War. This
IS something unprecedented in the his
tory Of the world
No American citizen beHudges a rea-
sonablo allowance OF the bounty Of the
country for services rendered at time
when the life Of the nation was threat
ened. but the question Is often raised
whether the enormous sums paid out
every year really 90 TO those who are
entitled to the gratitude Of the Repub-
lie. The board OF revision created in
1898 reduced the amount paid from. In
round numbers, $4,000 900. 10 SiSs.OOO,-
600. or about sl7OOO,OOO The facts
would seem TO call FOR another revision.
The veterans who need it should be
well cared for by the nation. but false
claimants should not be permitted to
consume the means generously appro-
prated for the veterans Of the Grand
Army.
