Men bend under burdens Of hunger

And women must suffer and toll and

Che Ucices Of tbe City
The Editor

Kipline has immortalized the great
stencil of Calcutta. In one of his
stories he wildly describes it's terrif-
ic vileness; but Kipling never breath
ed the atmosphere of Guyaquil.
have smelled the stencil of Chi
cago at it's worst; the mud flats of
East St. Louis when they were liter
ed with decaying CLANS and fish; of
the packing house district of south
Omaha; but none of these offer
even a fair comparison to the three
century old stink of Guyaquil.
Situated on low ground, scarcely
dozen feet above the Guymas river,
the city of Guyaquil, Ecuador sends
forth an odor that can be detected full
ly a dozen miles at sea. During the
rainy season its streets, (only few
of which are paved are veritable
cesspools; the mud becomes knee
deep in many places, and the surface
is covered with a poisonous green
scum. 1t is generally the case that
yellow fever makes it's appear
ance few weeks after the rains
commence. The hospitals are soon
crowded and emptied! They car
ry the "stiffs'' away. to the jungles
in cart loads, and throw them in a
ditch. The muddy Guymas, which
flows both ways with the tide, also
takes it's tole.
The city's population is very pa
triotic. They always uncover when
passing their national fag-and when
priest goes by. The writer has
had his hat snatched off on many
such occasions. They are proud of
everything Ecuatorlan, proud Of
their impossible mountains, their
sinking cities and their quater horse
power navy, but proudest of them
selves: they would not think of be-
ing seen on the streets carrying
bundle of even the most modest d.
mansions; they will not even carry
their purses!
The people of Guyaquil are de-
vided into two distinct classes: those
who wear shoes and those who wear
no shoes-nor much of anything
else. The shoeless ones do the work
and live in the filthy novels. They
invite you in to dine with them, and
while there is never much to eat,
you are welcome to share of it.
They are very cheerful, and tell you
the time is soon coming when they
also shall wear shoes. Meanwhile
their children, sans clothes, wallow
like riggies in the mud of the streets.
The citizens who wear shoes labor
not. As rule they live in two
story houses. with mosquito netting
over windows and doors. They
drink wine, eat fruits and pastries,
aud make polite calls, at regular in
tervals, to their neighbors. They
invite no one but intimate friends to
dine with them. They take life
easy and spend a good share of it
building air castles around the pres
ident's palace at Quito.
For it's motto, Guyaquil has the
single word "Manana' tomorrow,
and it lives up to it's motto. No one
will do today what can possibly be
postponed. The whole place is stag
nated-a foe to all progressiveness.
There is only one big and grand
thing about the city, and that is the
m isquito.
