Tachira. Indeed, it is as much more
troublesome than sea-sickness as that
complaint is worse than ordinary
nausea. When | was first attacked by
mountain sickness [ felt as if | had
been sea-sick for a week on end; then
it seemed as if my reason were going,
and in the end | completely lost my
memory and became delirious, until |
was brought down to low altitude"
Pure-blooded Indians are more or
less exempt from this complaint, but
all persons with white blood in their
veins are subject to it. In Venezuelan
expeditions it has been found that
men who are nine-tenths Indian and
only one-tenth white are just as sus-
ceptible as Americans or Eng1ishmen
1t is curious fact that men who are
immune from sea-sickness are usually
the first to be attacked by mountain
sickness. An old English sea captain
once accompanied the writer on a
| journey to the peak of one of the
mountains of La Victoria, in Venezu-
Ella. 1t was mere pleasure jaunt, the
altitude being little over 5000 feet; but
the skipper had a violent attack Of
mountain sickness before the summit
was reached.

customs. Nowhere, not even in the

cagua, the enchanting Lake of the In
cas-, and the gorge of the Soldiers
Leap are wont to speak sl1ghtlngly Of
the Alps. The severe grandeur of
these lofty peaks towering thousands
of feet above the clouds, with their
rugged slopes shining with all the
colors of the rainbow, impresses
everybody except the natives. In their
case, familiarity breeds contempt.
On the mule-track across the Cordll-
lera travellers between Argentina and
Chill pass within two hundred yards
Of the "Inca's Bridge which is, per-
haps, the most perfect natural bridge
across a torrent anywhere in the
world The native guides who conduct
travellers over the pass never suggest
turning aside for a few minutes to see
this marvel. Unless the traveller him
self suggests it, he misses one of the
most wonderful sights in the Andes.
There are guides who have been
crossing the pass constantly since
boyhood, and yet have never seen the
Inca's Bridge They would not walk
two hundred yards, of their own free
will, to see the finest scenery in the
world They are srFfeited with it.
The Chilian guides, however, insist
on showing the foreign traveller the
gorge Of "E1 Salto del Soldado' ("The
Soldiers Leap'). They say that the
place was named in honor of brave
Chilian soldier who, being pursued by
the enemy and having important de-
spatches, jumped across the gorge,
twenty-four feet wide, and escaped,
leaving the chagrined pursuers on the
other side.

Many others of the numerous An

who yearns to plant his feet on virgin
ground. Several of them have never
been climbed; others have been con-
quered, at the most, only once or
twice, many years ago.
1t is no light task. The man who
wants to scale an Andean peak must

nation of the eyes, and makes the

among the various Andean ranges
suffer much from the complaint, and
they have remedy which is far better
than any lotion the doctors can sug
gest. They simply put raw flesh on
the inhamed eye, as prize-hghters use
beefsteaks. The remedy is an ancient
one, for a Spanish-American writer,
Father Joseph de Acosta, who wrote
three centuries ago, mentions it.
"Comming one night" he says, in an
old English translation made in 1904,

DIED FROM INJURIES.
Charles Tracy Fatally Injured by Train
Near UnionvilIe.

Charles Tracy was fatally injured
by a train on the w. G. r. r. a short
distance beyond Unonville towards
Cherryfield, Tuesday. He was last seen
to start up the track and when beyond
the station n short distance and near
Tunk river he sat down on the track
and is supposed to have fallen asleep.
At that point the track makes a curve
through a clay cut and beyond for
some distance is a considerable rise in
the grade. While in the stupor the
westbound freight drawn by two en-
gines rounded the curve and Tracy
was seen by the engineer, who blew his
whistle several times thinking that the
man would heed the warning and take
himself out of the way.
The blast of the whistle failed to
arouse him and before the train could
be brought to stop, as it was running
at high speed to climb the grade ahead,
Tracy was struck by the front engine
and thrown to the top of the cut. When
the train had been stopped and the
trainmen had gone to look after him
he was found lying in the ditch.
He was placed in the caboose and
taken back to the station and word was
sent to Cherryfield for medical assist
ance which was responded to by Drs.
Van Wart and Mortcn. Upon examin-
alton the physicians concluded that his
case was hopeless and both legs and
arms were broken in several Places be-
sides which he was suffering from in

1t was decided to make his condition
as comfortable as possible. send him to
the Eastern Maine General hospital
that night, but he died before the train
arrived. lie was 80 years of age.
