WHERE LIFE IS EASY.
DN A COFFEE PLANTATIONIN THE
UNIT 5' STATES OF COLUMBIA.
Land and Labor Are Both Cheap—Anioni-
cans Are Held in High Regard at Santa
Marni—‘50 Color Line Drawn Between
Spun iard s and Negroes.
“If any man with $10,000 wants to
nake a modest fortune and enjoy an
easy life while he is doing it,” said Mr.
Henry M. Senter, “all he has to do is
:0 go to the United States of Colombia,
purchase a ‘hacienda,’ and raise coffee.
it is the biggest chance I know of. The
:limate is perfect, your altitude you
nay choose at will, you are right at a
seaport, so that the transportation of
your crop to the ship costs practically
' 10thing, and the demand for coffee is
never oversupplied. Besides these
points, land and labor are cheap and
the property of foreigners is sacredly
Pespected.
“When I say that land is cheap, I
nean it literally. Government land
ponds, each calling for one hec-
:are of the public domain, or two and
1 half acres, are now selling for 27
acute, silver, or about 11 cents in our
money. This is less than 41/; cents an
tore. Claims may be located by the
solders of these bonds on any unoccu-
oied government lands, and I have ta-
ken up 1,500 acres about seven miles
from the seaport of Santa Marta. My
plantation, Las Nubes, which means
The Clouds,’ is in the Sierra Nevadas,
1,500 feet above the level of the sea.
The manner of taking up land is the
simplest thing in the world. You pur-
chase your ,land bonds, select your
property and’ have it surveyed. Then
you go before the alcalde and declare
your intentions to improve the land.
He gives you his blessing and you give
him whatever you feel his blessing is
worth. You then begin to clear the
heavy forest, which covers all the
mountainous parts of the coast, and a
year later your friend, the alcalde, pays
you a visit to see that you are in pos-
session and making improvements. If
I ' everything is satisfactory, including a
.ittle ‘recognition,’ he issues you a title
deed and you become monarch of all
you survey.
“Right here it may be remarked that
while ‘recognition’ is expected in Co-
iombia by public officials, it is not. a
very serious matter. They are a re—
markably reasonable lot of peOple, and
that is the only way you are taxed,
with the exception of a poll tax,
amounting to $4 silver, or $1.60 in our
r.noney.
“Labor is cheap. Such men as are
required to clear the land and plant
the coffee trees only get $1.40 a day in
paper money, which is worth 56 cents
in our currency. Of course, you
needn’t do any great amount of labor
yourself, beyond learning the 14,000
'lifferent methods adopted by the na-
:ive laborers to ‘soldier’ on you. They
are constitutionally tired, and need a
good deal of driving to keep them at
work. Slavery was abolished about
seventy-five years ago, and since that
time the freed negroes and their de-
scendants have considered themselves
as good as any white man. Strangely
enough, the proud descendants of the
Spaniards seem to have conceded this
position, and there is absolutely no col-
or line drawn. Negroes and mulattoes,
if they secure wealth, are on an abso-
lute social equality with the children
and grandchildren of those who were
once their masters.
“The population of Colombia, as sta-
ted in the encyclopedias, is the wildest
kind of a guess, for no white man has
ever penetrated the interior and the na-
tives are too ignorant to give any reli-
able estimate. Santa Marta is a. town
of about 5,000. It was founded in 1525
and is mainly known to fame from the
fact that Kingsley, in ‘Westward, Ho!’
used the locality for someof his scenes.
The foreign element is about equally
divided among Americans, English and
Germans. Spanish is exclusively spo-
ken, and in the entire town there are
only three natives who can spe'ak
English. I
“Education is at a very low ebb. The
children of the better classes are sent
abroad for their schooling, and those
who remain at home glory in their ig~
norance. The wealthier class, those
who have accumulated money by ex-
porting coffee, hides and bananas,
mainly to the United States, live with
much pomp and circumstance in the
ancient Spanish houses. Speaking of
bananas reminds me that they ship
about 16,000 bunches every week to
New York, a voyage of seven days.
I‘heir commerce is almost entirely with
this country, and Americans are re-
garded with greater favor than is be-
stowed on either the French 9r German
residents.
“To my mind the most interesting
thing in the country is the evidence
of an ancient and forgotten civilization
which forces itself upon one on every
hand. In prehistoric times a. mighty
and highly civilized people inhabited
Colombia. On my land there are beau-
tifully constructed stone roads and the
remains of two villages of about 600
houses each, where we find stone
beads, pottery and ancient tools from
time to time.
“Unquestionably there are rich de-
posits of gold and other metals in the
interior, because the Spaniards carried
off vast amounts of it, for which they
traded the natives tin and glass beads.
No Spaniard or other European, how-
ever, has ever attempted to penetrate
the country and return alive. The fact
that the natives will accept no money
except gold shows that they are famil-
i111“ with its value, and it is probable
1112.11 when this tetra incognito. is ex-
plorcd. as it’doubtlws will be some day, ‘
some mighty interesting secrets will be

STRANGE MONEY IN THE MOUNTAINS _
trading Done in Skins “’liicli a Buyer
Collects Four Times a Year.
“The strangest money I ever saw,”
Main street
house the other evening, “was in the
mountain districts of Kentucky and
West Virginia. Last summer I was
making my semi- annual tour thmugh
this district and I stopped one day at
11 little grocery and saloon, not to sell
goods, but to get a drink of the
‘mountain dew.’ While I'was pour-
ing out my drink a. big husky moun-
taineer entered the place and called
for a drink. Ashe finished gulping it
down he reached into "a big bulky
pocket and drew forth what looked to
be a coon skin. He laid the skin on
the counter, the barkeeper took the
skin and opening a. drawer, hauled
out a rabbit skin, which I suppose
was the change. The mountaineer
picked 11p the rabbit skin and started
to the front part of the store, which
was the grocery. He there bought a
twist of tobacco and tendered the rub-
bit skin in payment. He received a
big twist of long green, and I was sur-
prised to see the storekeeper reach in
another drawer and tender him a
squirrel skin. The mountaineer
tucked the squirrel skin in his pocket,
walked out, unhitched his horse and
rode away.
“I became interested and engaged
the proprietor in conversation. He
told me that sometimes he would go
months without seeing any real money
and that the mountaineers used the
skins in all kinds of trades, such as
buying horses, etc. He said that four
times a year :1 hide buyer from Lex-
ington or Cincinnati visited the coun-
try and bought up all the skins. which
were generally concentrated in the
few stores in the vicinity."——Louisvillc

SAWOUST EXPLOSIONS.
Loglslntlon to Stop Lumlmrmen from tili-
lng on the Ottawa River.
Who ever heard of sawdust ex-
plosions? They are common enough
in Canada. Navigation ou the Ottawa
river has been seriously impeded at
times by the explosion of sawdust, and
the Dominion Government has at last
decided to take steps to prevent any
practice which will enhance the pos-
sibility of these explosions taking
place. One would hardly suppose that
sawdust dumped into the river would
in course of time reform itself into
a gas generator which would keep the.
surface of the stream in a constant
state of upheaval. But it is true to
such an extent that small boats have
been injured by the submarine con-
vulsions.
The bottom of the Ottawa River is
covered with ‘a deep layer of sawdust
dumped there by the lumbermen, who
have carried on their log-cutting indus-
try on its banks and tributaries for
years. The dust, becoming water
soaked, sinks to the bottom, and in the
course of time rots and generates a
highly explosive gas. The latter rises
to the surface. each bubble being
joined or reinforced by other bubbles
on the way up. Contact with air-
seems to be as dcstrictivc as touch-
fire to this‘ gas, and the moment the
surface is reached it explodes with a
loud report. Legislation may in time
do away with the annoyance, but even
if no more sawdust is thrown into the
stream henceforth. the millions of
tons already there will take a long
time of work off their gas—generating
qualities—nlYusbington Star.
PlTlFUL CAUSES OF CHEAP BIBLES.
The Spread of the Gospel Accomplished
by Starvation \Vages.
Why are Bibles so cheap? The labor
question seems to enter into consider-
211011 of the subject. The printing of
the incicd 1\ 0111 is subject to precise-
ly the some laws of supply and de-
mand as the printing of the strip of
calico. Some one asks: “Is it not the
zenith of inconsistency to find clergy-
men in their anxiety to have cheap
religious books encourage the manu-
facture of Bibles by inadequately paid
labor?" The trouble seems to be that
in binding women do the work in Scot-
land at from 4 to 10 shillings a week,
whereas in London the men can bare-
ly live when doing the same work at
32 shillings. ' ‘hmc does, indeed. seem
to be something pitiful when a family
of Bible binders may be starving on
4 to 10 shillings a week. The gen-
eral secretary of the English Book-
bindcrs' Society in an appeal to the
public writes: "Before landing the
cheapest Bibles. the officials of Bible
societies should make sure that they
have beon produced by labor for
which fair and proper wages have

THE FISH CAUGHT THE MAN
A 5 sonny Incident Related in the “Wild
“hurts of the “’est of Ireland."
A singular incident connected with
fishing is related by the author of
"Wild Sports of the West of Irelanc .”
A llill'ty of fishermen were out in a
bout after gudgeon near Sumbury.
One of the men, who had lamed his
horse some miles from home, had been
taken on board, but was not fishing.
As a penalty for wearing spurs, he
sat in the bow with his feet hanging
over the side of the skiff.
Soon after he got into the boat one
of the anglers caught a small gudgeon,
which he playfully hung on the horse-
man's projecting spur. The incident
was forgotten, and the gudgcon hung
there, its tail just touching the water.
Suddenly the man gave a cry of as-
tonishment, and the others, looking up,
saw 11 large juckfish floundering about
the dangling foot and splashingr the
water in vigorous fashion. The boat
began rocking. and the man in the
bow lost his balance and tumbled into
the lake. where he disappeared from
sight.
A moment later he rose to the sur-
face, the jackfisb still thrashing the
water about his foot, and it was soon
that the fish was caught on the spur.
The jack was a huge fellow and very
strong, and in its struggles for free-
dom it plunged toward the bottom of
the lake, dragging the man feet fore-
most after it. His weight howcv er’,
was too much for the fish and it made
small headway.
The fishelmen now went to the as-
sistance of their lucklcss companion,
and one of them struck the jack with
an ore and stunned it. The man was
pulled into the boat and the jackfsh
dispatched. The bigr fish had jumped
for the gudgeon, fixed its teeth in its
body, and had somehow been caught
by the gill on the crane-necked spur.

by leaving her home and marrying

A GIFT THAT FEW POSSESS.
The Power of Charming Animals~Fish
Caught by Diving for Them.
It is a strange power possessed by
‘Hun” Conway, a young man who
lives near Guionsville, Ind. He is
twenty—three years old, with ordinary
intelligence, but he has a gift that few
other men have. He is able to call
makes, birds and fish to him by the
sound of his voice. He can handle
venemous reptiles with absolute safe-
ly. He has had this power since
:hildhood, and has spent a great deal
of his time in the woods and fields
omong the animals that he calls his
friends.
Stories of Conway‘s power have
been told many times, but they were
often doubted by people of intelligence.
A short time ago members of the
Board of County Commissioners had
business near Conway’s home, and af-
ter they had concluded their work
they called on the young man and ask-
ed him to give an exhibition of his pe«
:uliar power.
He accompanied them to a hill in a
pasture, where he soon collected a
score of snakes that coiled around
him in apparent pleasure or remained
ginotionless and rigid at his command.
When members 1:: 1'1"; party touched
me of the snake: the apparently life-
less reptile came to life ‘and angrily
hissed.
Then Conway went to a pond in the
pasture, where he removed his clothes
1nd plunged into the water. Diving
below the surface, he came up with a
fish in either hand. He continued
living and catching fish until he had
given each of the gentlemen a suffi-
3ient supply for a meal, when the par-
ty went into the woods. Conway
whistled softly and made Queer noises
with his mouth. Scores of birds flew
to him, alighting on his head, hands
and arms, showing no fear of him.
Conway has possessed his strange
power all his life. He is unable to
account for it. He says that he “just
and that is all he knows

About the face on Silver Dollars.
A leading authority on American cu-
rios thus given the history of the face
on the American silver dollar: "Miss
Anna W. TVilliams is the name of the
lady whose profile is stamped upon the ,
Bland silver dollar. When the de-
signer, Morgan, came to this country
from England, in 1876, he was selected
to make a design for a new dollar. He
settled in Philadelphia, with the direct
aim of thoroughly Americanizing his
work, being desirous to present as the
principal figure a representative head
of an American beauty, finally select-
ing Miss \Villinms, who was living at
the time with her aunt at 1023 Spring
Garden street. She was unconscious
of the ultimate use of the sketch she
gave sittings for, and not 'until two
years afterward was the secret dis~
closet .”——St. Globe-Democrat.
