Mr E A Parker, Dear Fiiend : I Lave come to a stop for awhile. This is about 70 miles from New Orleans by R. R. I came here last Sunday evening and have been working since Tuesday ; would have written before this but did not stop long enough at one placo. I will try and give you a little Bketch of my trip : I left San Francisco Oct . 28, on the steamship Acapulco, for the South. There were about ltt cabin pas sengers, 18 whiteB in the steerage aud 85 Chinamen. The weather was a mue cool and windy, a little cool for about three days out ; then we laid our over coats to one ewe and did not have any more use for them on the boat. I will not say-any thing about the accommo dations for there were none, and what we had to eat is not mentiooable. Six of the passengers were going to New York city, the rest were for points a'.l along the coast. The Chinamen were for Salens Craxe, Mexico, and Panama. We stopped several times but the boat anchored ont from the shore in some places over a mile, and they took the passengers and freight ashore in small boats; so there was no one went ashore, except the onas'who were going to stay, for they charged one dollar for taking thtin ashore and bringing them back. A couple of the places the natives brought out fruit to sell ; they sold most of it reasonably. There was not much of anything of interest. The land when ever we could see it was mountainous and it looked very dry and hot, with a few green echrube scattered oyer tbem. We put in IS days and I got so tired and sea sick that I gut off before we got to where I started ; it would have taken 8 or 10 days to have gotten thsre. I got off at San Jose, Gaatania?a, Centra) America, Nov. 12. I had to pay one dollar to land, (that is 50cts to go ashore in the bsat and 50 ctstolandon the wharf), U. S. money, or two dollars Goatamala money. There is nothing at Sao Jose but the railroad buildings, custom hooe and a few na. live huts. It is so unhealthy that white men cannot stay there. We ooly stopped there loug enough for the custom house officers to go through our baggage as the train was waiting that goes to Goatama la city. We left San Jose -about 10 a. m., and got to Guatemala city at 5 p. m., 75 miles distance. It is on top of the mountain, a very nice location for a city. Along the railroad are a few corn Gelds, some about knee bub, some I as set eO, and some dry enough to pick, a few banana and a few coffee farms- '.ona tbe coast it is low and fiat and very unhealthy ; nr. one iives on that nart of the land. Ills very nice after you come to tbe mountains. The city is built op very much differ ent from any placet ever n before. there is a high doba wail e'ear around the whole block, so vacant lots; the bonnes and Mores are inside if those a-.'.! . It is very bard to tell a store fro in a residence; there are a few two itory hotels, except those and the Cath olic churches the rest are one story The streets are 40 feet wide, paved with tone. The side walks are about 5 feet wide. There are co vacant blocks it. the city, that is there is a high wall all around,o if it is vacant it don't look so, unless it is a few that tbe city has for parks, which are kept up very nice!. There seems to be a good many people in the city bnt oot much work going on. Living is pretty high ; a working man cio't get along on less than two and two and a half dollars a day and then won't get much. Tbe first class hotels charge 4 and f5 a day. They are making preparations for a fair next May, are'putticg np some very nice buildings. I hardly think they will get tbem ready by that time. If many people go tt ey won't get any accomoda tions for they can't accomodate wbat few people there are now and they are not making much arrangements at the ho tel. It will rnly'Uke about two davt to see all then will to be seen, so I don't tee wliy any one would want to spend much money to go that far. Carpenters are about tbe only clas of American laborers that can get much to do. Tbs rest of tbe wora is done by tbe natives and tbe colored race. Common laborers only get $2 and $2.50 per day, tbey don't bave much kit after expen ses are paid. It is no country ior any white man who bas not a light job in the shade, he can't stand any bard woik in the sun. Their money is not worth much, the first gold I exchanged I got $2 30 to one of gold, the next I only got 12.25. I saw some get as high aa $14 of Gaatamala money for $5 of U. 8. gold. It depends some on bow bad some of tbem wants tbe g"ld, if a man bas any of their money and is going to leave the country be can Hardly get rid of it. I stop pedf our days tn the city, saw there was nothing around there for me so I shouldered my valuables and started for Zacapa, a distance of 123 miles, that is the distance between "the railroads, they are bnllrMng from this side to Gua temala City, tbey get the supplies from this side so they work from this aide. It is a very good mountain trail, that is for moles, rbey either go on foot or mule back and as it costs from $30 to $40 to go on a male tbe most of tbe common people go a foot. It toox me six days, I am minus a couple of toe nails and can hardly wear a shoe yet. I started oot alone but there was another passenger came along about 5 o'clock and we trav eled together. It was rather lucky for me for I could not ask fur anything to eat, this fellow had been in the country sometimo and could speak their language very well. Tbey all speak Spanish. 1 stopped two days in Zacapa, took tbe R R from there to Port A! harries, stayed thereone day and boarded a steamer for New Orleans. It only ought to have taken six days to bave come across but we were caught in a storm aud were oat nine days. 1 was sick most of the time, just felt mean. The steamer we came on to New Or leans was loaded with bananas, so when . A a a aa tney uegao to get ripe we Iiaa all we wanted to ea, we just helped ourselves and no one ta:d anytbiny.

A great many old maids are to be con gratulated over the fact that they have allowed t'e last leap year for eight years to go by without proposing. A farmer object very emphatically to the proposition of lion J M Sowers to have a commission of lawyers (or the supreme court to enable it to catchup, lie say we have too many commissions already. A Salt Cake City man is nn enthusias tic believer in the transmutation of sil ver iuto gold. He says that it has cer taiuly been established that gold and sil ver are merely the effects ol eluclrical vibratious making the difference in the metals, aud the difference ran be made up by science at an immense p.oflt. If there is anything in this it won't take very long to settle the 16 to 1 question. All previous records for speedy Justice were broken at Little Rock. At 2 o'clock in the morning Will Howard, stole a yoke of oxen, five miles from town, brought them there, sold them and squandered the proceeds, lie was ar rested by the police, turned over to a justice of the peace, held to the grand jury, indicted, tried in c.rcnit court, con victed, sentenced to the penitentiary and was wearing stripes at 11 :20 o'clock the next moiuing. The Republic ears that the man whu bet that Bryan would carr a greater number of states than McKintey wins The electoral votes of California and Kentucky are divided. Thosj Statu were carried by neither or by both can didates. Of the remaining 43 states Bryan carried 22 and McKioley 21. That is the score it the view is taken that Keutucky and California were carried by neither. On the theory that Bryan and McKinley both carried Kentucky and California the score woulJ stand Brjaa 24, McKiuley 22. In both tt.e divided states tbe election was very cioee, and in each of tbem one democrat ic elector was chosen by an undisputed plurality over a republican opponent. Venus is the earth's nearest planetary neighbor and on that account is an in teresting subject for a "note." Her greatest distance from tbe sun is G7,u5, 000 miles, and her least 66,757,000, which makes her orbit otariy circular. At times, when she gets between us and the son, she is only 4.000,000 miles away. At another time (when the planet is be yond the son in a straight line from u) she is 163,000,000 miles from ns. Venus is 7,700 miles in diameter, which makes her volume 92 per cent that cf the earth. On the earth tailing bodies travel 16.09 feet the first second ; on Venus, ooly 13' j i feet. Venus receives twice the light ! and heat that the earth does, and ber year is only si day and a fraction in lecptu- Ia response to a request from the Ex aminer W.J. Bryan defines democracy : I bave not time toansweryour questions at length. In a broad sense a democra cy is a government which the people r.in, and a democrat is one who believe in such a government. Ia a party sene democracy is defined by tbe Chicago platform, and the person aba soppoits tbe party and its platform caa call him self a democrat. Tbe platform is eu- tirely satisfactory to roe. In my jadj menl it applied democratic principle to present conditions. If a minority bas a right to give a party definition of democ racy, then there may be as many differ ent definitions of democracy as there are persons who desire to wear the name. It is beautifully leas: Tbe official announcement of the vote in the recent election is being given oat from day ta day by the boards of ran vaeeers in tbe various tlaiee. McKin ley'a alleged plurality of "more than one million" grows less, and Bryan's vote more and more. Tbe Philadelphia Record, a republiran paper, isthefi-st newspaper vj issue a statistical a tnanac , for 1897. It gives the total vote tor Mc Kin lev 7,062,43, for Bryan 6S7,3iO and for Palmer 133.710. Tbe prohibition vote is near 100,000. and the Bryan and WateoQ vote 150.0O). The latter should be counted for Bryan, and if this be done McKinley's plurality is ooly 355,204. Taking the vote for Palmer, the prohi bition vote and the nationalist vote into consideration, UcKioley's majority over all is exceedingly slim. A Washington dif patch says that J. 8. Coxey of commonweal fame arrived iu Washington today to resume bis efforts to secure congressional action on bis schemes for good roads and non-inteieet bearing boods. Mr . Coxey has deprived himself of bis mustache sloes be led his famous army upon the capitol. and, ia commemoration of that historical evrnt. wears cut! buttons emblazoned with the legend "Keep off the grae." He had an interview with Chairman Waiker of the house banking committee and filed specifications of bis financial scberaes. Coxey says he intends to send a copy o his latest pamphlet to every voter in the United States. His platform includes demonetizatlot of both gold and silver, government ownership of public work, the income tax aad public sa'aries regu lated by the price of wheat. Here's about a funny robbery : Thomas Keaner, a truck larmer living Just north of Spar'a, a small station cn the Mobile and Ohio, was robbed in a most nniqne manner. Keaner is sup posed to be well-to-do. He dropped into Sparta tor a little relaxation and a lew drinks. He got both, and then took a few more drinks, further increasing his degree of relaxation. Early Sunday morning he started down the Mobile and Ohio tracks for home. He had a jni( that was only to be beaten by bis in tense desire to add to it, but his money had been spent. When he neared borne he started lo sing and was violently in. terruptedbya man with a pistol, who commanded him to bold up his bands. This be did, and the robber, who had been joined by two others, ordered him to undress. When they had secured his clothes they leisurely searchei them, leaving Keauer shivering in his under clothes. In the search of the pockets the highwaymen found a pair of dice, and Btrsightway sat down upou the track to shoot craps for Keanei's clo'bing. Piece after piece changed hands, and Keaner became interested, tie frequent ly applauded a successful throw, and finally accepted tbe bantering offer of one of the thieves to shake dice for his underclothing. He shook and lost, and when divested of bis underclothes by the rang be "shook" tome more, this time with the cold night air. He was coin maoded to go borne and he did so. No one knows what explanation lis made when he arrived there.

The Pendleton Tribune tells the fol lowing: Cnarley Fraxier on Saturday night dropped a nickel in one of the many card machines that are now to be found in this city, and got five kings. The fifth king must have got into the box by mistake, as no provision is made for a prixe for five cards of a kind.
