Cerro de Pasco, Peru (Special to
the Observer) South' America, to peo
ple of the State (that Is the way we
speak of you), has a far-away Bound.
And this Idea-Is' not far from right,
as you will realize," when you consider
the Jcurney from New York to Pana
ma, your" boat probably j touching at
Kingston, Jamaica, en route,' thence
across the IsthmuB, and, if you are
lucky and make immediate connec
tions on thq Pacific side, a week more
of water ' Journey will , land you' at
Lima, or rather Callao, which Is the
port of Lima, and only a few miles
dlBtant therefrom. , 3 " V j
Passing over the day or two of
sight-seeing in "this ancient ' City It
Plzzarulwe will start at once on the
Jour4e)vt4 Cerro de Pasco, over, the
Peruvian Central Railway to La Or
oya, the Junction point of the Cerro
de Pasco Railway. The Central Rail
way takes you up, up, and then up,
, till the summit at Tiella, some 15,600
feet above the sea, '. This altitude- Is
(attained on a 3, 4 and 5 percent grade,
j over , numerous ' switchbacks, . and
through some fifty or more tunnels.
Ton take off your . hat to- Henry
Melggs, the builder of this road as you
see the feats of construction he had to
overcome, and the fight he mu&t have
had to overcome 'natural obstacles,
and the almost supernatural ones oLj
disease and pestilence. ' For to this
very day, there Is a spot on the road
near a big bridge, Puente de Verrubes,
where, when the ground Is stirred up
the people near take sick and die of a
peculiar disease,' a sort of blood boil,
called verrubes. Why this Is, the doc
tors seem unable to determine, as
they likewise seem unable to cure the
terrible malady. !
Oxygen Is Scarce, .
But, we wete at Tlclla 15.600 feet
above the sea level. The pressure of
the air at this point Is Just about
halt what it Is at sea-level 7.S pounds.
The oxygen In the air Is not enough
to cause any 'oppression, I can as
sure you. In fact you are sort , of
looking around in corners, so to speak,
for smal neglected particles of this
particular Ingredient of the air, and
wondering if you lungs have not for
gotten what it looks like, or how to
extract It from, the ozone. But the

grade is . down from here t to Oroya,
(altitude' 12,000' feet), so, though it
grow very cold with the setting of
the sun behind the cordilleras, you
may find the , air pretty nice at La
Oroya. : We better spend the nighf
here anyway to get accustomed to the
altitude, and tomorrow proceed to
Cerro de Pasco over the railway of
that name. - v! ;
The morning dawns bright and
clear, with a layer of ice at least a
quarter of an Inch thick, so yon know
what' kind of clothes to year Don't
let any one tell you to wear your1 suim
mer clothes In these parts at any time
of the year. ! We are near the equa
tor yea,' but we are alBo pretty well
up. toward heaven;, and It gets mighty
chilly up this way, especially, to. one
who has J8t come from sea-level
The average temperature Is around
50 degrees the year round,' the' nights
being' quite chilly, and the days very
pleasant - V, .
; Boad Equipment Is Fine.
It will , rather , surprise you to see
the modern equipment of the Cerro
de Pasco railroad In this far-off part
of the world. The "monkey motion'
Rhode Island locomotive' that pulls
you out of La Oroya is JuBt about as
powerful and good-looking a piece of
machinery as 'you will see pull out
of Chicago, and In fact you can see a
lot of engines running on passenger
trains out of Chicago that will not be
gin to compare with this one. The
grade on this railroad is from one
to three per cent, and the curves are
as sharp as 16 degrees, bnt there are
no tunnels, and only one switchback.
The scenery along the line is probab
ly different from any other In the
world. ' For a time you wind up
through the canyon of a small river
that 'flows Into the Amazon. The
mountains on each side of you reach
Into the air to rival the Royal Gorge of
Colorado, yet we think nothing about
that here. It is only to be expected.
Further on the road comes out onto
the pampas, or elevated plains, some
11,000 feet elevation, and to the left
of you, in an almost endless chain,
extend the jagged snowclad peaks of
the y Cordilleras. A large lake, many
