Peru. Pawn shops ale incredibly nu-
merous and packed with treasures of
every observation-disclosures, pearls,
emeralds, splendid laces, articles of
virtu, table service, and toilet sets of
solid gold and silver, Including pieces
for all the common uses Of the bed
room betokening the extravaganza of
an age when the Andes poured out
streams of precious metal that were
thought to be exhaustless; for since
these later days of poverty the wolf has
been kept from many doors by the sur
reptitious sale of household treasures,
heirlooms, keepsakes and even rich,
d-fashioned garments which their
grandmothers wore. 1t is quite the
fashion here to visit pawn shops, and
the tourists cannot do better than go
on tours of inspection and perhaps con-
vert some coined silver into jewels in
antique settings, which may sometimes
be bought for tithe of their real value.
From the Plaza Mayor the street call
ed San Lazaro leads down to the river
Rlmac, where it is crossed by an
ancient stone bridge, which was built
in the year 1910, by order of The Mar
quis Monies Claras, the then reigning
viceroy. 1t has six arches, with deep
recesses on each side, lined with stone
benches. Here pedestrians stop to rest
and the place is frequented at all hours
by idlers of the lower classes, who do
their philandering here, while los ricos
are promenading in the tiowery paths
of the Alameda. Here orange peddlers
bring piles of golden fruit; the tamale
woman squats beside her brazier and
fries garlicy compounds that scent the
air; and the beggar suns his vermin-
rags by day on the same stone bench
that serves him for bed at night.
Formerly the bridge was reached on
the side of the city proper by lofty
arch, painted in fantastic colors and
upholding clock; but it long since
structures. The quaint old theatre,
Italian opera house, was built by an
other viceroy, more than hundred
years ago. It's alleged "boxes" which
are mere empty stalls, all open upon a
gallery in the open air, and to get into
one of them you must climb long
flight of outside stairs leading to this
airy corridor. The splendid Pantheon,
Cemetery, just outside the city limits,
was laid out by another viceroy, Abas-
cal, in the year 1908. Its chapel :con-
tains handsome altar, and there are
many costly monuments and well-kept
flower beds. The vaults are built up
in the wall, like rows of ovens, tier above
tier, each numbered in order. Most of
them are rented for stated number of
years, payment of course being in ad-
vance, and if the lease is not renewed
at the end of the stipulated term the
coffin, with whatever it may yet con-
tain, is summarily evicted.

The Steamship Stoker.

Stokers are the hardest working OF
all classes of labor on board steamships.
From intimate association with them
in their labor and from knowledge OF
low orders of labor on shore, l can say,
without hesitation that, as class,
ships firemen and coal passers or
trimmers perform more arduous ana
repulsive work than the miners IN thln
veins in the anthracite region, the
miners iii the hot mines OF Montana,
the glass blowers of the gas belt, or the
grimy toilers in the rolling mills. mhey
receive proportionately less pay. Ihey
usually work in four-hour watches, four
on and eight off. Their location IS IN
front of the firing ends OF the battery
of ships boilers or in the bunkers where
the coal is stored, both of these being
in the very bowels of the ship: The
quarters are cramped, the air full OF
noxious gases, the light, the terrible
glare of the raging fires, and the TEN
perature ranging from 1o5 to 140 degrees
Fahrenheit. The most that even the
Cunard line pays picked firemen for
their mail boats is $40 per month. The
American line has its price regulated
at an average of something over $50,
though at times it equals the best rate

STRAWBERRIES AND SUICIDE.

Washington students of suicidal
mania assert that the eating of straw
berries is conducive to Self-deStTuct
To those who have long esteemed this
berry as one of the greatest dellcacles
of the vegetable world this announce
ment will be startling.
Yet the reasoning Of the experts is
very clear. They first assert that the
records show that the suicides are more
frequent i'll the spring than during any
other season of the year; suicide results
from mental depreSslon: strawberries
are eaten i'll the spring and partaklng
of them causes mental depression
hence strawberries cause suicide.
1t is very simple. Any child who can
blow soap bubbles can understand it.
Green apples also appear in the
spring, and those of us who are not
too old to remember the days OF our
youth can recall occasions when a llb-
eral quantity of green apples taken
internally cast a blight and shadow
upon youthful hopes and youthful
ambitions and caused youthful eyes to
fancy that they could already see the
twinkling of the lights of the New
Jerusalem.
And if innocent green apples can do
this for exuberant youth what may not
the vile and treacherous strawberry do
for the adult persons already burdened
with the cares OF life and blinded by
the dust of the weary way?
In the language of one of the songs
of our friend, His Imperial Highness
King Dodo, the Washington experts

the home of the first five-masted
schooner ever built, is about to have
the additional honor of sending forth
the largest tive-master ever built in

the measuring point, her great size has
already attracted much attention. Geo;

the launching will take place during the
high tides of May, which serve between

A CAMP SCHOOL IN sEARspoRr.
Mr.. George D. Pettee. principal of t

Mr.. George D. Pettee, principal of the
University School in Cleveland, Ohio,
has bought the estate of Mr.. Loomis
Eames and proposes to establish camp
school in Searsport for two months of
the summer, beginning in July. 1t is
for the benefit of the pupils of the Uni
versity schools, but their friends, if
known to the teachers or patrons of
the University, will be welcome. To
quote from the brief prospectus sent
out by the Principal:
Camp Euclid is situated about miles
from Belfast and about twelve from
about seven miles distant, across the
bay Northport and Camden lie oppo-
site the camp, to the south. SearSport
is most conveniently reached by steam
er from Boston, via the boats of the
Eastern Steamship Co. Daily trips are
made in both directions, occupying a
single night. Numerous lines of steam
erS make connections from Belfast to
Rockland, Portland, Bath, Castine,
Sedgwick, Blue Hill and Mount Desert.
BY way of Bangor and the Penobscot
river the camp has water connection
with Moosehead Lake. SearSport is al
so within hundred miles of Rangeley
Lakes.
An auxiliary camp will be erected on
the shore of one Of the lakes which is
within a few miles of Camp Euclid.
The plan of the camp includes the usual
features of boating, fishing, athletic
games, roughing it in the woods and
excursions, and in addition, the estab-
lishment of more substantial and per-
manent recreation home than is COM
mon to school camps.
The members of the camp will pro-
ceed at once to the erection of sub
stantial club house, and it is believed
that the skill acquired during the school
year Ill carpentry and cabinet work
VIII enable the members of the camp
to construct a summer home, attractive
and useful, as rapidly as possible. Two
such buildings will be erected, making
separate provision for the younger and
older boys. Teachers and students are
expected to join in carpentry work two
or three hours each morning. Instruc-
tion will be given in swimming and in
handling of boats and special training
and practice in base ball and track
athletics will be provided, and a week
ly track meet arranged. Light foot
ball practice and coaching in the theory
of the game will occupy the second
month of the camp.
The instructors will be as follows:
George f. johnson, nature study; J.
Harland, rush athletics; Charles Heyd-
Ter, violin and cello; Harry A. Peters,
tutoring; Wesley E. Hartley, carpen-
try: Bernard NJ. Allen, instructor in
Phillips Academy; l.. Gardner Pattee,
instructor in Westminster school, Sims
bury, Conn: Leland Griggs graduate
student. Dartmouth College.
Numerous excursions will be taken
during the summer. and among others
bicycle and tramping trip through the
White Mountains; a canoeing and fish
ing trip to Moosehead Lake. steamer
and bicycle trip to Nova Scotia; trips
by water to Mount Desert Island, and
to other school camps on the coast of
Maine.
Enquiries relative to Camp Euclid,
and applications for membership, may
be addressed to George ID. Pettee,
Cleveland, Ohio.

F. W. GowEN ON PROHIBITION.

Frank w. Gowen of Waterville, wide
ly known as a temperance speaker and
worker, was in Belfast and Waldo
county last week on business and was
highly pleased with the enforcement of
Prohibition in Belfast; and compli-
mented the Judges of the Supreme
Court of Maine for enforcing the jail
sentence under our prohibitory law.
"Maine," he said, twill never compro-
mise or go into partnership with drunk
rd-making business. He left the fol-
lowing letter to be published in The
Journal:
To THE CITIZENS OF WALDO CoUN-
TY: rejoice that our prohibitory law
is thoroughly enforced in Belfast, and
that the rum shops are closed. Now
let every intelligent Christian and
moral citizen in your city band them
and see to it that these hell holes are
kept closed. The sentiment of Maine
is for rigid enforcement of our law and
the extinction OF every rum shop with
in our borders. If you ask me how we
are to fully divorce ourselves in this
State from the dreadful evil, | answer
by the reunion at the ballot box of all
the voting enemies of the saloon. AT
our State election last fall between H.
900 and 10000 Republicans who voted
for Governor Hill refused to vote for
candidates for sheriff and members of
the legislature who were not firm be-
levers in the principles of prohibition.
Now we are to see to it that the public
sentiment of our people. of all parties,
who desire our prohibitory law enforc-
ed, is crystalliZed into a powerful or
ganization that shall mean as | have
said union of voting forces to elect
in 1904 men for the office of sheriff in
all our counties, pledged to enforce the
law, and members of our legislature
who will oppose re-submission and all
forms of license of the liquor traffic,
that terrible enemy of American liberty
and civilization.
At the Grand Lodge session of Maine
Good Templars held in Lewiston re-
Gently, Legislative temperance COM
mittee was appointed to carry on legiS-
lative work and we shall favor the sup
port of any candidate or political party
favorable to prohibition. We shall very
soon name our committees for every
county in the State, of we'll known
temperance men,. In this way, we will
have thorough organization Of the
entire State made up of a band of
supporters who will press the fight
against resubmission ana license and
stand only for temperance candidates
for the office of sheriff and the Legis-
lature. / earnestly hope that every
well-wisher of our noble cause in Wal
do county, where l spent my boyhood
days, will assist us in our work of de-
stroying the rum traffic. The Saloon in
Maine must 90.
Very respectfully yours,
