The Cholo Indians are simple,
docile people, although semi-savage in
the remoter districts. They have the
usual characteristics of mountaineers,

melancholy and tainted with supersti-
ton. They are extremely hardy and
courageous. A Cholo will make long

Honesty is among the many admir-
able traits of the Cholo. He is a good
husband and father, and unlike most
Indians, does not impose the heaviest
burdens on his women.

Lima Is an attractive city archi-
tecturally. but its location on the
coast makes 1t uncomfortably hot
although the climate is unusually
healthy. 1t is distinctly a cosmopon-
tan city-Italians. Germans. French.
Austrians. Cinnamon and British are
found there In considerable numbers,
and among them a sprinkling of
Americans, who make up for their
lack of numbers by the importance
of the interests which they represent.
The Peruvian of the capital is
much the same as the better class
of Latin Americans elsewhere = a
dignihed. genial. cultured, and hos
pitable gentleman. The Peruvians
are justly proud of the fact that Lima
contains the oldest university in the
New World and one of the finest
libraries of Spanish literature. The
influence of this seat of learning is
easily traceable in the native resi-
dents of the city.

seventy-f1ve miles to the Dalles. It Is
beyond this that most Of the improve
ments will be made and that are con-
sidered necessary. for, just as this
great river in 1906 was e waterway
for savages, so today it is important
for civilized man. The canoes of the
Indian have vanished and steamboats,
have taken their place. At the en-
trance to the Gorge one catches a
first glimpse of the titanic forms that
border on each side of the river.
It is also apparent why the Cas-
cade Mountains are so named. Down
the rocky sides of the huge balastic
projections that stand up sheer from
the stream are numerous beautiful
little falls. They pour from every
crevice, often from the mountain tops
and in one place at least twelve of
these cascades with their foaming
spray can be seen glistening like snow
wreaths. Some send down tiny threads
of foam, others are beauties hidden
in evergreen hooks, and still others
spread over broad lodges like wells.
The most beautiful of these is Multi

Further on is Castle Rock, and i'm
mediately following is the odd Bridge
of the Gods. From abutments on the
mountain sides one can understand
that the Indians may have some foun-
dalton for their story that there once
existed a natural bridge which
spanned the river. The Indians say
they were able to cross the stream
dryshod and account for the disap-
pearance of the bridge in various
ways. One legend tells that a dusky
maiden on the Oregon side was stolen
by her enemies on the other side of
the river. When her friends pursued,
the Indian tried to escape across the
bridge and in revenge the gods let
the bridge fall. This is but one of
several fanciful tales. Scientists think
that there may have been an uplift
across the stream, which if composed

entrance to the valley from the coast
is by a pass $4,000 feet above sea-
level and the exit from it to the east
through another at 1900 feet eleva-
ton. A river, which rises in one of
the remarkable mountain lakes of
Peru. flows through the valley and
waters a considerable cultivated area.
The city is built of stone, after the
usual Spanish-American style, with
a central plaza, a cathedral, and a
few public buildings. Through the
valley are dotted here and there a
number of smaller towns and pueblos,
bringing its total population up to
about 10000, the greater part Of
whom are Cholo Indians. Half the

The people of the outlying villages
are engaged in agriculture. Those of
the city gain living by mining and
commerce with the exterior. The
means of communication with the
coast and points on the eastern slope
is over difficult mountain paths. and
burdens are carried by mules and
llamas.
In these mountain valleys great
herds of alpacas, vicunas, and llamas
are pastured. The last named are as

of this river looks as II 1t might last

of it's terrors and the lighthouses
throw their CLEANS across this stretch
which once was considered so dan
gerous.
The salmon fishers with their nets
and fish wheels now ply their trade
along the banks near which Lewis
and Clark once made a salt camp.
It is an interesting business-this
salmon catching. but that is another
story. The mighty Columbia is first
and always a scenic wonder. Once
it was the storm center in Anglo
American politics on account of indie
cision regarding the international
boundary. Today. it is a stream rich
in historic associations and vast in
economic resources. If the now dan
gerous parts can be made safe, there
seems little Limitation in the part it
will play in the scheme of inland
waterways.
