wall and very wide one-sometimes
scores and sometimes hundreds of
miles across-and except in a few
places all but impossible. There is
the Oroya railroad in central Peru, the
highest in the world, which will take
you from the drowsy tropical coast at
breakfast time and by early afternoon
set you on the roof of the divide. shiv-
ering and breathing fast, 1880 feet
above the sea. There is a railroad up
to Lake Titicaca from Mollendo, in
southern Peru, which crosses the
shoulder of the Andes at an altitude
about a thousand feet lower, and there
is a railroad running down into Chile
and the coast from the Bolivian pla-
teau. The only railroad highway
which crosses the continent, however,
is that which climbs the Chilean noun.

thence across the pampa to Buenas
Aires. Some day this will be through

more places tunnel gangs are nibbling
under the upper cOrdillera. But now
it is open only during the summer, and
even then the fourteen kilometers over
the Cumbre. or summit of the pass,

attempt is made to cross, and from
Mendoza, in the Argentine foothills,

about 100 miles, the road is closed.
The Andes in these parts rise to ap

FATE OF A RARE STAMP.
Craved by Collectors and Burned by
Careless Domestic.

In the year 1851 twelve penny black
Canadian postage stamp was printed
by the government at. Ottawa. The
public did not regard this somber issue
with favor. so few We're issued.
One of these stamps was sent to the
Hamilton postofiice, where 1t was sold
to an old gentleman, who said 1t was
a shame to print the queens picture
on stamp that might be handled by
profane hands. Tenderly the old gen
tleman put it on Il parcel, sending it to
a friend in the United States. Here,
in the wastebasket, it lay for many a
day till an errand boy found it and
quickly transferred it to his album.
Despairing of getting good collection
and his fever for stamps somewhat
abating, he sold them to a dealer. The
new owner, on looking at the cata-
logue. found that what he had paid So
for was worth $50.
Accidentally the stamp was slipped
into % cent packet and sent to a
dealer residing in Hamilton. When
the latter opened the packet he was
astonished to find such a valuable
stamp and, being honest. wrote his
friend to inform him of what had hap
pened. offering him $1,000 for it. The
offer was accepted. and the stamp
again changed hands. By this time the
stamp had increased in value. and not
a few came from a distance to look at
the treasure. One day an English no.
bleman, who, through Canadian
friend. had heard of the stamp. offered
$500. which offer was accepted. The
English lord. falling in love with an
American heiress and wishing to gain
the favor of her brother. presented
him with the stamp as token of
esteem. Here, in its new and lnxurl-
Gus American home. it came to a sad
end, for one day the maid. by mistake,
swept the stamp. which had accidental
ly fallen out of the album, into the
fire. In an instant the stamp which
thousands had heard of and longed
for went up in smoke to the broad,
blue sky, leaving not trace behind.
A Greater Noise.
They had removed from New York
to quiet country town, and new
neighbor was rendering his sympathy.

Dakota Divorces Letters
Indicate Change IN Style

n WRITING her Letters OF Da-
kota Divorce" Jane Burr gives u
J. most remarHab bic demonstration Of
self confidence. When one reaches
the end of the collection of lnissives
sent by Mariana" to her dearest and
closest friend, Lorna the first thought
is how did this authoress dare to risk
her opening chapters with the reading
public.
Somewhere between the beginning and
end OF this near-diary of a woman out
in Sioux Falls in search of a legal
scattering Of the matrimonial shackIes
is a change in the style Of the writer
noticeable enough to force the suspicion
that perhaps the work had proved too
difficult for the beginner Of the work
and that some kind friend had been
called to the rescue.
Frankly the beginning chapters Of the
book are almost enough to compel one
to throw 1t aside I'm disgust. In her
opening letters Mariana" attempts a
slangy style that is decidedly vulgar
and not at all entertaining or even
amusing. Little asides thrown in here
and there to complete the picture do
not belong and merely aid in increas-
ing the dissatisfaction.
In believing that the majority of her
readers would go on through this dis
satisfied period the Authoress certainly
showed her confidence in the readers,
and they are amply repaid, for the let
ters really become a pretty love story.
and the only regret is that the heroine
Is not rewarded with an and then they
lived happy ever afterward" future.
Advance notices told that the letters
would show how love working as a re-
finer transformed a slangy and shock
ingly worldly woman into n real lOvable
womanly woman and this IN brief tells
the story, hut at the beginning you are
alarmed At the magnitude Of the task
undertaken by love.

Futrelle's Latest
Is Diamond Master"

With the promise of a diamond fac
tory preparing to supply enough stones
20 make the prices popular 10 even the
down trodden, underpaid person. Jacques
Futrelle starts The Diamond Master, -
and from then on through 10 the end
he makes new friends and Increases the
admiration Of the cid ones who have
followed him on his Journeys with his
Thinking Machine" and his visits with
"Batty Logan"
One can always find enough mystery
to thrill in the stories Of Mr.. FNItreue.
and ia this instance the F1Itrelle air OF
mystery fills the tale.
F. Van Cortlandt Wymau. a shrewd
young man with a distinctly business
ike air, startIes the diamond syndicate,
made up OF the big dealers OF the COun-
try. by unloading before their wonder
ing eyes a satChel filed with diamonds
OF all shapes and sizes and degrees Of
Dfilliancy. He makes the syndicate a
proposition that Il is ordered to accept
under pain OF seeing the market flooded
with diamonds enough to make the pen
ny-prize package stones valuable when
compared to the important portion Of an
engagement ring
When the syndicate insists upon being
shown what he can do he produces in
a way that is maddening to It duplicates
Of tho Kohinoor, Regent, and Orloff
and then the members in a frightened
frame Of mind employ detectives to fol-
low the young man in an attempt to
discover from whence comes this sup
ply.
All this furnishes the plot hat car
ries one through pages filled with thrills
and forces many guesses as TO the real
solution Of the mystery.
Mr. Futrelle not only furnishes clever
problems for his readers. but shades his
stories with vein OF sentiment and in
THE Diamond Master" there is a pretty
little love tale

Trust Methods Shown
In Cash Intrigue"

Trust methods carried TO the nth
power Is the subject of George Ran
dolph Chester's latest book, 1.-THE Cash
Intrigue" which would be a mere pow
erful story did 1t not fall into a pes
simistic vein that rivals that In "Cae-
sar's Column" printed several years
ago.
Phillip Kelvin is a young man who
has grudge at Wall street and be-
comes the right hand man of Henry
Breed, owner Of the food trust, and
persuades Breed 90 corner all the cash
in the United States by demanding cash
for food.
Breed, Kelvin, and Rollins, a IA ilroad
man. by smashing Wall street, corner
the railroads, the steel industries and
all the big businesses. Then Breed has
Kelvin and Rollins elected President
and Vice President Of the United States
buying their way in and electing a Sen
ate that will give them proper laws.
Meanwhile Breeds granddaughter
Lillian, falls in love with Phillip and
wants 10 sit on a throne with him.
When Phillip declares himself en-
peror Of the United States and re-
fuses 10 have anything to do with
the granddaughter, she joins forces
with Blagg, q wireless operator who
has been organizing the socialists while
working for Breed and knowing the
details OF The Cash Intrigue"
Rollins organizes the horny handed
workers, who are "agin" both socialism
and monarchy and all three clash. In
payment for his perhdy. Lillian stabs
Philip: the Rollins faction is victorious,
and law, order. and the United States
constitution are Tehabilitated. Appar-
emily the purpose OF the author is TO
point a moral, but his picture seems
overdrawn and does not carry with it
the heart throbs and homely interest
that made the Wallingford stories so
readable.
