Brown Mr.. Carey did not take up 9
homestead but bought tract of land
near Pierre.
Pierre is the capital Of South Dakota

the state The land across the river

last June for settlement, 30 miles or
more have been settled since that time
leaving 45 miles to be settled which
will soon be taken. The decided prairie
land east of the river sells from $S to
$l2,the soil is deep black loom without
stone or gravel. Two large ferry boats
and four gasoline passenger boats are
constantly earring passengers and
teams across the river or are employed
in taking excursionists up the river

more serious matter Many times with

has the city been almost wiped out of
existence by fire There is. no water
works of any kind, and blaze once
started by favoring wind sweeps all

To look at a photograph of Guaya-

to be more imposing structure than
Notre Dame or st. Peters; but the
truth is that, though certainly elegant
in architectural design, it is merely

with mud, succeed and painted. A
Latin inscription across the facade
modestly assures the beholder that its
door is Ell Puerto del Cielo, 'the Gate
of Heaven" One would never mis-
trust it from glimpse of its gloomy
and pewless interior, which is extreme
ly bare and shabby, garnished by few
caricatures of saints and angels. Its
uneven floor of brick and cement, like
very poor cellar bottom at home, is
worn into hollows by the knees of wor-
shippers.
1t is common thing to meet a bevy
of priests in the street, clad in sacre-
dotal vestmentS, carrying about the
Holy Sacrament and an image OF the
Virgin, preceded by brass band and
number of boys carrying lighted candles
and swinging incense burners. This is
favorite mode of raising subscriptions
for religious purposes. The procession
stops in front of every house OF conse-
uuence and the priests enter with con-
tribution plates, while the band plays
and people kneel in the dust praying
loudly that charity may be bestowed

tanned, the amount is announced to the
waiting throng, and blessing is pro-

contribution is gained, there is an omi-

curse is pronounced upon the house

ness than comes to women of colder
lands in their three score years and
ten, for these are harrassed by no
''carking cares or high ambitions. In
doIence, religious superstition and
faithfulness unto death are their most
prominent characteristics. Their pas
sionate natures are completely satisfied
in the love of home, husband and chill
dren; they have no longings after the
unattainable, and for them the whole
universe lies within the limits of vision.
Happy women; and fortunate the men
to whom their lifelong devotion is
given.
To be sure, they are VIGOROUSLY un-
tidy in dress and habits; but the manta
or paneulon, like the mantle of charity,
covers multitude of sins. AS the
poncho is the universal and useful gar
ment for men of the lower and middle
| classes, answering for coat by day,
bed blanket by night, an umbrella when
it rains and basket in which to carry
| everything conceivable-so the manta
is worn by all classes of females and is
| equally indispensable, since it hides un-
kempt hair and all shortcomings of the
toilette. There is not such thing in
| Ecuador as bonnet or female hat,
the most aristocratic ladies going about
| the streets with their glossy hair I'M
covered, or shaded by parasol or lace
mantilla or the universal manta-the
latter being large square or light
weight cloth, draped so as to cover the
head, shoulders and most of the dress.
The ordinary costume of the poorer
class woman consists of nothing what
ever but a manta, short and Scant

get up revolution strong enough to
GUST him. Armed revolts are epidemic
in this 'Great and Glorious Republic, -
especially in the interior, where people
of the higher attitudes are naturally
more industrious and patriotic. But
the contagion of revolution seldom
spreads so far down as Guayaquil,
where the excessive heat disinclines
people to exertion of any kind. A
tumble-down fortress overlooking the
town, the funny little gunboat in the
harbq, and handful of hungry-look-
ing soldiers, seem to keep the peace
admirably among the ease-loving citi-
zens.
