Strung closely along the line are a
canoes, Telica, Viejo and Corcovado,
pushing their shoulders high above
the others. Then comes Coseguina,
standing on or forming the promon-
tory which in part shuts in the great
bay of Fonseca. Coseguina has been
1886, it burst and startled by its
noise even the City of Mexico, near
ly thousand miles away. Through
three days the hammering of it's ex-
plosions terrified four republics, and
in that time the volcano covered
three republics with a pail of ashes
that, over much of Honduras at least,
was inches in depth. Old people of
that country have told of the death
of thousands of animals, caused by
the cloak that hid all green things,
stopped the flow of water in the
streams, and suffocated the beasts.
That was probably the most terrific
outburst ever known by civilized
man before the Krakatoa mantled
the sea with pumice and minute dust,
and for many weeks tinted the skies
of all the world by the dust into
which it had burst it's rocks. So
Coseguiana also threw it's dust 80
high into the sky that it hid from
the sunshine all the region within
$50 miles, and even fell upon Ja-
maica, 500 miles to windward.
It would be tedious, and useless, to
which dot the line between Cose-
guina in Nicaragua and Colima in
Mixico, for they are too many, and
the once savagely fiery hearts of
most of them are dead and cold. But
from Colima, now threatening vio-
lence, eastward to the shore of the
bay of Campeche is short arm of
the mighty Andean cross, the only
east and west range of volcanoes in
all America. In that arm are set
seven great volcanoes, the grandest
being Popocatepetl, 1890 feet in al.
titude.
Of especial interest just now is
that part of the great American vol.
canic system which lies in the sunk
en- valley in which are the lakes of
Nicaragua and their outlet, for
there is the line along which will he
the Nicaragua ship canal, if it shall
be made. Within the last century a
dozen of those volcanoes have
belched lava and steam and dust,
and earthquakes have been of almost
monthly occurrence.
Little injury has been done by
earthquakes in that region. It is
true that Leon, in Nicaragua, has
been badly shaken several times; and
no longer than two years ago the
massive ornaments were tumbled
from the towers of her churches,
and wide gaps were opened in their
walls, as like seams were opened in
those of the queer. blacl. sandstone
church of Managua, 40 miles distant.

few of whom have ever seen pictures
outside of the textbooks. Dress.
making is another branch of learning
that has been commenced this sum-
mer.
The boys are likewise taught those
things that will be likely to be the
most practical to them in their sta
lions in life. Their physical develop
ment is attended to in the gymnasium,
and in order to arouse their spirit
of patriotism and instil love for the
country which is now to be theirs
company has been formed, andwith
Quaker muskets the young soldiers
keep step to the beats of the drum
every day after school. One point is
insisted on by the management; the
children must be kept clean. Those
who come dirty to school are hurried
away to the bath rooms and undergo
a thorough course of scrubbing.
Two years ago an acceptable gift was
received by the mission. A beautiful
home, surrounded by % acres of land,
located at Cornwall-onthe Hudson,
was given by John Olmsted and his sis
ter, Miss Sarah Olmsted, both of whom
have been greatly interested in the
mission work and have contributed to
it generously. To this place the chill
dren are taken during the hot summer
months, when their poor homes be-
come heated ovens. They go in groups
of 100 at time for two weeks.
In addition to the children taught at
the day school and fed, every day assist
ance was rendered last year to 600 fam
lilies and 1000 individuals. Over $500
was donated for coal and nearly $4,000
articles of new and secondhand cloth
ing were given to needy persons, not
including 1000 pairs of shoes. One hun
dred and ten thousand meals were
served to adults.
Another great work in rescuing chill
dren from this locality is being car
ried on by the House of Industry. It
was originally incorporated in 1854 as
an industrial school for adults, but is
now confined to children entirely. 1t is
a large ,well-ventilated brick build
ing and is divided into chapel, class
rooms and living apartments. One of
the points of most interest to the Wis
itor is the sleeping-room of the ba-
bies. They all take maps at noon, and.
just before going to sleep for the night.
kneel down together in their night
gowns by the sides Of their cribs and
pray. The dormitories are large and
airy and the beds are spotlessly clean.
The little ones are seated in tiny
chairs in the chapel during religious
service. Their cleanliness and the man.
ner in which they deport themselves
would do honor to any fashionable
upper West side quarter in the city.
They are like white flowers in this
oasis of East side depravity.

the existence of our government.
Of course it would not be right for
the reader to infer that all the other
.chairmen were drunkards. On the
contrary, only one of them was given
to excessive use of liquor. But all of
the others used liquor to some de-
gree. One of them, man in whom
the people had great confidence and
for whom they developed great affec-
ton, never took anything stronger
than wine, and very little of that.
So, while it would not be right Ger
one to infer that they were all drunk
ards or extremists, it is true that all
of them have at times been some
what influenced by at least trace
of alcohol.
There are causes for all effects.
here is a reason for the use of wills
ky by statesmen, although there is
no necessity for it. One of the
causes o. this condition rests with
tie people. They send to congress

those proofs of the power of the most
prodigious and destructive force this
world has known.
Following the line one sees to the

ROM where the eighty-second de-
Il gree of west longitude touches
the Pacific coast of Colombia,
1880 miles due south from the city of
Cleveland, draw line straight north
westward $500 miles to where the
twentyffth degree of north latitude
crosses the Pacific shore of Mexico,
1900 miles from New York city, and
count the once fiery, now emerald,
gems, which jewel that belt.
Near the beginning of that line is
Mont Blanco. It's head rises $3.50 feet
above the Caribbean sea, which seems
to one who looks down from its crest
to be scarcely more than a stone
throw away. A mere step, say Is or
20 miles farther, along our line an
other mountain lifts it's head hun
dred feet higher than that of Blanco.
Then come many mountains of little
less height, before Turrialba rises, a
majestic sentinel at the southern ex
tremity of that broad and fertile plain
which stretches 325 miles to the north
ern shore of Honduras, and forms the
larger part of three republics.
Across this plain flows the Rio San
Juan, draining northeastern Costa
Rica and all the basins of the great
lakes of Nicaragua. 1t is along this
river and through the larger of the
two lakes that the proposed ship ca
nal would be made, should that route
be accepted by the United States.
Turrialba is 11,OOOfeet in height, and
standing shoulder to shoulder with it
is Irazu, II ,4SO feet high. At its foot
sits the beautiful city of San Jose,
clean and provided with electric lights,
tram cars and telephone and telegraph
lines, ice plants and water supply, ho-
tells and cafes, blooming parks and a
magnificent theater, with other con-
veniences, comforts and luxuries. A
thousand feet higher, on the flank Of
Irazu, is the solid old city of Cartago,
long the capital of the republic. If

valuable guests, although
he only pays $40 per
month"; said hotel clerk, pointing
to one of the older members of the
house of representatives. Continu-
ing he said:
1.-THE proprietor was very angry
with me when / told him the low rate
had made, and insisted that should
change it to SIS per month. l told
him that L knew my business as a
room clerk better than he did, That
man spends upwards of 500 each
, month at our bar, buying drinks for
himself and for his friends.
''He is a strange sort of man, and l
knew exactly how to take him when
he came asking for rates last Novem-
Der. l had entertained him-at an
other hotel. He is stingy about his
room and board, and stingy about his
clothing, always having cheap tailor
or buying ready-made clothes but he
is a spendthrift when it comes to
gratifying his appetite for whisky.
Moreover, he wants jolly drinking
fellows around him, and he treats the
crowds, no matter how big they may
be-" Then, swelling himself with
pride and conceit, the clerk said:
There are very few hotel clerks
who have the sense to think of the
bar room and billiard room in maxi
ing rates for their guests. I'd rather
take in q drinking man at low
rate, than a temperance man at y
high rate. There is more profit in
liquor than in food and hence it's
better for the house to have guests
of that sort. The boss realizes that
now, and he lets me make rates to
suit myself for the guests, because
nearly all other public men, and L
know their appetites."
The member of congress who has
the distinction of being pointed out
as a statesman who spends money
enough for whisky every month to
support small family in luxury has
been sent to the national house of
representatives again and again by
his constituents, until he is now
regarded as one of the foremost men
of his party, and his whisky-soaked
brain has had much to do with the
legislation of this republic.
The speaker of the house of repre-
sentatives yields more power, in
some respects, than any other man
in our republic. And yet the writer
has seldom seen that power con-.
ferred upon any man whose brain is,
entirely and absolutely free from al
coholic contamination. The growth
of the temperance spirit in our land
will continue until public sentiment
will make ineligible to high Office any
man whose thinking machinery is
made abnormal by alcohol.
For a little more than quarter of
a century the writer has watched ma
tional legislation, and in all of that
time there has been but one chair
man of the committee on ways and
means who was absolutely free from
alcoholic influence, and that was Mel
son Dingley, of Maine. And yet the
chairman of that committee is the
man upon whom primarily depends
all legislation concerning the raising
of revenue for the expenses of our
great and growing government.
Speaking out of experience, and out
of the recollections of those who have
been here for half century, it may
be added that Nelson Dingley was
the only absolutely non-alcoholic
