The Kansas City World prints an in
teresting account of the wanderings
OF BENJAMIN and McElroy Brown, sons
OF q prominent attorney Of that city
and nephews of Mrs. Brett Of this city.
The older lad is now sailing in Aus
tralian waters in search Of his young
err brother while the latter Is visiting
relatives in Grand Rapids. Mich. They
have been trying to find each other
for two years but never get together.
The first to start out was McElr0y,
who, when fifteen, went to South Afri-
ca, enlisted in the British army and
served in several famous English reg
iments. He returned after the war to
learn that his brother Ben had left
for South Africa to find him.
BENJAMIN has had also his full
share of adventures and perils. He
likewise worked his way across the
sea on a transport. From South Az
RIGA he succeeded in reaching Austral-
la. While in the Australian bush Ben

THE MULE PATH AND GENERAL
FFRRFR

There is another memcnto of the stOr-
my fortunes of Venezuela more elu-
quent than all monuments. This is the
steep zigzag trail that leads over the
high hills which separate Caracas, the
capital, from La Guayra, the nearest
seaport. This mule path. over which
Admiral Drake, the dragon of the
Spanish Main" long ago led his band Of
English Adventures to the sack of Ca
racas, has since been trodden by long
succession of fugitive Venezuelan presi-
dents and dictators. from Bolivar, the
great liberator, down to President Cas-
tro's immediate predecessor. 1t was on
this same path, commanding the Eng
fish railway line and wide road run
ming from La Guayra to Caracas. that
Castro's soldicry. a few weeks ago in
trenched themselves for last stand In
defense uC their otherwise defenseless
capital.
No better position could have been So
lccted. When 7 last rode over this
path I was struck by its strategic ad
vantagcs. Short cut over the noun
tains as it is, it took me little more
cas- to La Guayra on horseback than it
took by rail over the longer route. The
crest of the first foothills. admirably
adapted for the posting of mountain ar
tiliery. completely dominated the two
cities below At La Guayra two little
mountain forts, placed one above the
other, carried large guns which, if well
served might have placed the despair
! of any ships venturing within their
range. On the highest ridge above,
where there is a splendid double view
of the harbor Of La Guayra and the
great blue sea on one side, and the city
of Caracas lying far below the valley
on the other side, lay another disman-
! tied fort, which once evidently dOmina-
| ted both approaches. On either side |
! could see diminutive strings of mules
and burros climbing up and down in
single file, or halting at turns, to let
others coming in the opposite direction
pass. Properly defended, such road
should prove mpregnahle.
If President Castro showed wisdom in
selecting this position as his first de-
fene, he showed still greater wisdom in
putting General Ferrer in command of
it. Ferrer is a Venezuelan of unusual
educa ton and experience, we'll fitted to
observe the niceties Of war with foreign
opponents, and Withal a brave man,
twice wounded in battle, who could be
depended On to hold position until the
last extremity. AS a soldier he distin-
guished himself at his trfst battle by
his superb craftsmanship with rifle
which he had snatched from a bungling
private's hand. AS military govrnor Of
