enOugh--they left traces of that fear
in their sons and grandsons, In the
minds of most Of these, indeed, their
thrift was next to their religion to
save, even for the sake of saving, was
their earliest lesson and discipline. No
matter how prosperous they were they
could not spend money either upon
tart" or upon mere luxury and eLter-
tainment, without sense of sin.
Against so homespun a background
the magnificence Of the Ambersons was
as conspicuous as brass band at a
funeral. Major ANDERSON bought two
hundred acres Of land at the end of
National avenue; and through this
tract he built broad streets and cross
streets paved them with cedar block,
and curbed them with stone. He set up
fountains, here and there, where the
streets intersected, and at symmetri-
cal intervals placed cast-irOn statues,
painted white, with their titles clear
upon the pedestals Minerva, Mer-
curry, Hercules, Venus Gladiator En-
peror Augustus, Fisher Boy, Stag
hound, Mastiff, Greyhound, Fawn,
Antelope, Wounded Doe and Wounded
Lion. Most of the forest trees had
been left to flourish still, and, at some
distance, or by moonlight, the place
was in truth beautiful; but the ardent
citizen, loving to see his city grow,
wanted neither distance nor noon
light. He had not seen Versailles,
but, standing before the fountain Of
Neptune in Anderson addition, at
bright noon, and quoting the favorite
comparison of the local newspapers
he declared Versailles outdone All
this Art showed a profit from the
start, for the lots sold well and there
was something like a rush to build
in the new Addition. Its main thor
oughfare, an oblique continuation Of
National avenue, was called Amber
SOD boulevard, and here, at the juno
ture of the new boulevard and the
avenue, Major Anderson reserved
four acres for himself and built his
new house-the ANDERSON mansion of
course.
This house was the pride of the
town. Faced with stone as far back
as the dining-roOm windows, it was
house of arches and turrets and Cir
ding stone porches: it had the first
porte cochere seen in that town.
There was a central front hall" with
a great black-walnut stairway, and
open TO a green glass skyight called
the dome" three stories above the
ground floor. A ballroom occupied
most of the third story and at one
end of it was carved walnut gallery
for the musicians. Citizens told stran-
gers that the cost of all this black
walnut and wood carving was sixty
thousand dollars "SiXty thousand

dollars for the woodwork alOneI Yes,
sir, and hardwood floors all over the
house! Turkish rugs and no carpets
at ALL except Brussels carpet in the
front parlOr-I hear they call it the
reception room Hot and cold water
upstairs and down, and stationary
washstands in every bedroom in the
place! Their sideboard's built right
into the house and goes all the way
across one end of the dining room. 1t
isn't walnut, it's solid mahogany |!
Not interchangeable mahogany Well,
sir, l presume the president of the
United States would be tickled to
swap the White House for the new
Anderson mansion, if the Major'd
give him the chance-but by the Al
mighty Dollar, you bet your sweet
life the Major wouldn't"
The visitor to the town was certain
to receive further enlightenment, for
there was one form of entertainment
never omitted: he was always patri,
otically taken for "a little drive round
our CITY," even if his host had to hire
a hack, and the climax of the display
was the Anderson mansion. Look
at that greenhouse they've put up
there in the side yard" the escort
would continue. "And look at that
brick stable! Most folks would think
that stable plenty big enough and
good enough to live inf it's got run
ming water and four rooms upstairs
for two hired men and one of ems
family to live in. They keep one hired
man loafin' in the house, and they got
a married hired man out In the stable,
and his wife does the washing. This
town never did see so much style as
Ambersons are putting on these days;
and / guess it's going to he expensive,
because a lot of other folks'll try to
keep up with 'em. The Majors wife

Seems to me 1t would go against a
persons stomach, just before supper
like that, and anyway tea isn't fit for
much-not unless you're sick or some
thing Looks to me like some people
in this city'd be willing to go crazy
If they thought that would help 'em to
be as heightened as Ambersons. Old
Aleck Minafer-he's about the closest
old codger we got-he come in my Of
fee the other day, and he pretty near
had a stroke tellin' me about his
daughter Fanny. Seems Miss Isabel
Amberson's got some kind Of dog
they call 1t a st. Bernard-and Fanny
was bound to have one, too. Well,
old Aleck told her he didn't like dogs
except rat terriers, because a rat ter
rier cleans up the mice, but she kept
on at him, and finally he said all right
she could have one. Then, by George
she says Amberson's bought their
dog, and you don't get one without
paying for it: they cost from fifty to
hundred dollars up! Old Aleck
wanted to know If I ever heard Of
anybody's buyin' a dog before, be
cause, even a Newfoundland or a set
ter, you can usually get somebody to
give you one. He says he saw some
sense in payin' a niger a dime, or
even a quarter, to drown a dog for
you, but to pay out fifty dollars and
maybe more-well, sir, he like to
choked himself to death, right there
in my office! OF course everybody
realizes that Major Anderson is a fine
business man, but what with THROWN
money around for dogs, and every
which and what some think all this
styles bound to break him up, If his
family don't quit"
One citizen, having thus discoursed
to a visitor, came to a thoughtful
pause, and then added Does seem
pretty much like sQuandering, yet
when you see that dog out walking
with this Miss Isabel, he seems worth
the money"

ECUADOR FEELING
TRADE DEPRESSION
Market for Hides, Wool and
Nuts Falls Off Since
End of War.
BLAME FOR PRODUCERS
Methods of Making Sales Here
Often Cause of Loss or
Delay.

ou1ro Ecuador, Oct. 4.--The business
world of this country Is now undergoing
the greatest commercial depression
which It has experienced since the be-
ginning of the war. Markets for cacao'
hides wool and tagua nuts are most uh,
satisfactory, and there Is only smali
export OF hats. The supplies or cacao
in the United States and Europe are
more than equal to the demands ana
cacao exporters are having to hold their
product until higher prices can be real
lied.
The wool market is also. very poor
due largely to the enormous suppues
now available in the United states since
the Government of that country mas
ceased its purchases 1t is Always hai
for Ecuadorian wool growers to ma
market for their wool, for they are very
careless in their methods OF preparing IL.
Insufficient effort is made to keep IL
clean. and foreign buyers olten ciali ,l
that IL is fraudulently weighted GOWN
with dirt, manure and other refuse'
Tho nresent decline of the tagua nut
Industry is also stated to be largely the
fault OF the Ecuadorian producers. rms
nut is shipped either shelled or unsheiieu'
the latter receiving a price or from "a
to 2 cents more. 1t has been pointed gu.
many times that local exporters car
make much more from shipping tne
shelled product, for the cost OF LABOR 10
much less in Ecuador than in the unlted
States or Europe. The chief dihlculty IN
the way of this Is the fact that the
shelled nuts are more liable to the at
tacks OF weavils IL the nuts have to 60
into storage on their arrival at New
york. This difficulty is not of grea,
Importance, however, providing the locaI
exporters will give their foreign repre-,
sentatives firm offers and Will permit
them to sell at the best market.
At present the tagua nut growers re,
fuse to trust their representatives ana
by compelling them to cable TO hcuauoi
for acceptance there of every offer made
sales are often hung up and the nuts
obliged to go into storehouses when they
might be sold a1oat.

PAPER CURRENCY
IN MEXICO RISES
Decree Making 1t Receivable
i'm Surtaxes Causes Steady
Increase in Value.
ALL WILL BE RETIRED
Destroyed as Fast as It Comes
In, but $117,000,000 Is
Still Outstanding.

MEXICO, CITY, Oct. 1.-THE Treasury
Department has issued statement Of
the status of the only remaining paper
currency. known as the ''infalsihcable,"
which was issued in 1916 at a par value
of 20 cents Mexican or 10 cents gold
per dollar. This paper or any other has
not been in circulation since specie pay
ments were resumed in the winter OF
1867, since which time nothing but
gold, silver and copper coins have been
in use.
In order to retire the paper entirely
the Treasury Department decreed sur
tax in the paper named on all imports
and exports. Thus If the tax was 800
in national gold, the payee was also
obliged to give the same amount IN
"infalsficable' At the time this tax
was decreed the paper was worth prac-
tically nothing. and for a long time
could be bought in the market at a
fraction of cent on the dollar. As
fast as the paper was received by the
Government 1t was destroyed and as
result the price began to rise, until
now it is quoted at TN to nearly .
cents on the dollar.
The status of this paper, as regards
the amount issued. the amount destroyed
and the total outstanding, is given by
the Treasury Department as follows:
Printed by the American Bank
Note Company in New York.. Abo ooo'U Uoo
Bills of 81 and 81 printed here..... IS OOo'oo
Total amount issued. ..........:.. blSoo0'oVV
Burned by the Monetary Commits
Burned since JuIy / 1919 .,,... is17s, 10
Total amount outstanding. ...,....s III, $50, 70i
There has naturally been a large
| amount of this paper that has been de-
stroyed in one way or another, and II
| It to be doubted II so much as hun
bred millions is still in existence. Va
ricus efforts have been made to induce
| the Government to abolish the surtax
| in paper but without success, as 1t Is
| desired to retire the entire issue and
| this seems the only feasible method.
| Practically all of the holders of the
paper obtained II for only small frac-
| ton Of its present value.
While there are no bank bills in cir
| culation, there are occasional dealings
| in them on the exchange. the quotations
! being as follows: Bank Of London, 81
| to 32 cents on the dollar: Bank of the
State of Mexico, A and IS cents; Bank
| of Nuevo Leon. 65 cents: Oriental Bank
| Is TO Is cents. During the revolution
| airy period the banks refused to accept
| their own paper except as heavy dis
! count, this being one of the reasons why
the Government finally forced them into
| liquidation. 1t has always been claimed
| that the banks of emission possessed
abundance of assets to have enabled

LECTURER THROWS
LIGHT ON BRAZIL
Progress in Agriculture and
the Cattle Industry Told
by DR.. Hunnicutt.

Many preconceived notions regarding
Brazil as a great undeveloped jungle
isnd mainly inhabited by boa constric-
tors were dispersed for those who at
tended the exhibition of motion pictures
and lecture by DR.. Benjamin H. Hunni-
cult held under the auspices of the Pan
American Society at the Hotel Astor
Wednesday evening of last week DR..
Hunnicutt having been a professor in
n large agricultural school in southern
Brazil for many years was particularly
enthusiastic regarding the progress
which Brazil has made in modern agri-
cultural methods during recent years.
As an illustration of the economic aid
given by Brazil to the Allies during
the war DR.. Hunnicutt said that Sac
Paulo made regular shipments of chilled
meat to the Italian army amounting
to 1000 tons every month. The South
Atlantic fleet of the United States Navy
also received It's supplies of timed meats
from the same source.
Recounting Brazil's achievements
along the lines of agricultural training,
the speaker said that the school at
Sac Paulo, which has 100 students and
complete and up to date equipment, cost
the Government s1,000.000. At Pin
heiro, in the State of Rio de Janeiro,
the Federal School for orphans and
abandoned boys most OF whom are
taken off the streets. has more than
400 boys who are receiving primary ed
ucatlon and practical agricultural train
ing in all its branches.
This lecture on Brazil was the first
OF series TO be conducted by the
ran-American Society. AS the hall was
filed to capacity the society is encour-
aged to believe that the next lecture

were of unusual interest although be-
ing somewhat worn were not as clear
as might have been wished 1t is un-
Gerstood that certain other Latin Amer
lean republics are making plans to send
here as early as possible the newest
films obtainable for exhibition at sub

BASEBALL DISPLACE5
MEXICAN BULL FIGHT
American National Game
Popular in Chihuahua.

Grand opera in Mexico city and base
ball In Chihuahua are becoming real
contenders with the bull fight for pop
clarity.
Many thousands 1t is reported, have
several times recently enjoyed the
worlds best music in the large steel
constructed bull ring in Mexico city.
where not so long ago the Spanish
toreador held forth. The bull ring in
Chihuahua was not converted into a
diamond on September 16 (Mexico's
independence Dsy) only for the reason
that 1t was not large enough. For the
FIRST time In history there was no bull
fight in Chihuahua on that day, the
popular sporting attraction being two
games of baseball-one played in the
morning and the other in the afternoon.
The games were between an FL Paso,
Texas, team, which is a member Of the
Army City League of that place. and
two Chihuahua teams, and this inter
national touch greatly added to the in
terest of the games. The grand stand
and side lines were packed both morn
ing and afternoon, SO that thousands
enjoyed the games. The spectators we're
real fans in every sense of the word
quick witted and humorous, displaying a
high class of baseball repartee. A num-
Der brought COW bells to make their
| roofing for the home team more effec-
tive, and no big or bush league games
in the States were ever witnessed by a
more interesting or orderly gathering of
fans.
The players were all Mexican boys,
| except that in the morning game first
base was covered by an old time Amer
! lean ball player who has long lived in
Chihuahua and who, many years ago.
| played with the st. Louis Browns.
And SO to-day in Mexico the bull
| fighter from Spain is gradually giving
way not only to the opera singer from
the Metropolitan but also to the ball
player from the United States.

BOLIVIA PLANS RAILROAD.
Proposed Line Would Obviate
Transshipments.

LA PAz, Bolivia, Oct 1. Announces
ment has been made that the Minister
of Public Works has named a commits
sion to survey a route for the proposed
railroad to run from the city Of Puno, in
Peru. around the eastern end of Lake
Titicaca to Guaqui. the Bolivian port Oh
Lake Titicaca.
The construction of this line would
obviate the necessity of transshipment
by the Lake Titicaca Steamship Com
pany Of goods bound from Mollendo to
La Paz, on the Southern Railroad of
Peru. This transshipment IN expensive.
for 1t necessitates two extra landings,
and II is believed that II this could be
done away with by n railroad around
the lake the resultant decrease in ex-
penditures would make possible a lowe,
ting Of the rates from Mollendo to La
Paz. Such a decrease In rates is greatly
needed, for at the present time the rev-
nues of the Southern Railroad are suf-
fering severely from the competition of
the shorter Arica-La Paz Railroad.
