Goodwin. .ROM Valparalao north there are but few places visited by other than business men and those en gaged in business In them, and true It Is that barely one of them offers the sllg-htest general Interest to the vlultor. Antofagasta, one of the most Important of these coast cltlon, lies In the territory Chile wrested from Bolivia. With the rnpturo of the prov ince an 1 city of Antofagasta them dis appeared the remainder of Bolivia's sen border. It Is a standing disgrace to Chile that Antofagasta is the only port by which she allows Bolivia to either export or import, and only then for the consideration of enormous oustoms dues. Yt such is Bolivia's great mineral wealth, tlio Id ably by the export of her minerals to pay the excessive cost of her Imports. 'J lie custom-house at An tofagasta Is overloaded with goojs which have overflowed Into the sur rounding streets. I'nlil nulto recently the only communication with the inland was by means of mules, and for this reason many of the packs tos have lain there for months, the English or Ameri can shippers guite forgetting to take Into account that so mucu ana no more" is the carrying limit of even a mule. In Nitrat. Beds. Right hack of the foothills of Anto faguRtu lie the cnoi uioiih nitrate of soda pampas. Hesolate una are they stretch, without one single growing thing thereon. This Is solely owing to the entire absence of rain, which would largely wash away the deposits, for ni trate or soda makes the finest artiriclaj fertilizer the farmer can obtain, be sides being the maliipprlng of numer ous chemical And explosive manufac tures. How largo United States com merce with Chile Im may be gauged by the fact that over three fourths of that trade is represented by Chile's export of nitrate of soda. As Chile Is practi cally the only place from which ni trate of soda can be obtnlned, the ex haustion of the Chilean beds is not a f rospecl that the chemical manufacturer Ikes to dwell upon any more tnan do the employes of ',1m various nitrate "oflcinas" or factories. Antofaensia Itself is a place to hur riedly visit and hurriedly leave, for some days afterwards one will find profitable employment in ridding one's clothes of the odor that hangs around them. Choked by the smell and suf- located Dy the terruie oust, it Is a firoblem liow the Inhabitants of this Ittle place exist with any degree of comfort. Water has to be brought n pipes from an oasis over 260 miles away, and none of it can be spared for street watering. Prior to the laying of the pipe lino . distilled sea water, the most horrible thing Invented by tho hand of man, sold by the gallon, waa a'l that waa available. So expensive was water that it Is an old saying that citizens of Antofagasta and Iqulque, which also has a long pipe line, used to drink champagne as a cheaper bev erage than water. However true this may be, it Is certain that, altnough not yet "on the water wagon," west coast cities are not the liquor-flowing resorts they one time were. The rainless condition of the coast 1st responsible iir the visibility of the enormous sf?ns cut in the sandstone rock by the Chilean soldiers during the Bolivia and Peruvian wars. Viva Chile" can be constantly seen, but plainest of all does the writer remem ber on tne c'iff above Arlca the vast sign, "Viva Battalion No. 4." This sign was of especial significance, for Arlca is the most northerly of the ports captured from Peru, and consequently the nearest to the Peruvian frontier. Some years ago a tidal wave swept Arlca and Is reported to have lifted ships In the harbor, broken their ca bles and carried them some distance say 6u0 yards Inland. Pisco, a little port farther north, is noted Tor a spirituous drink produced from grapes and known under the same namo as the town. Pisco Immediately flies to the head, and sea captains load ing ana OisciMu-glng on this coast find their greatest difficulty In keeping t e stuff off their ships. Klghtw, murder and mutiny quickly follow on a ship wtlh a secreted supply of pIsco, and probably the same liquor has been the cause of to many ships being fired on mis western coast by tnelr crews. At nil these norts one cannot fail to he interested with tho mode of fishing. Line and r.ets are a!lke useless owing tn the depth ani clearness of the water. The fishermen stand up In their boats with a stick of dynamite, attached to which is u. fuse, held In the hand. The fuse is lit and the dynamite must be held so that when it is thrown Into tho water It explodes before the water has time to nut out the fuse. If the dvn- tnlte has been thrown successfully the dead or stunned fish float to the sur face of the water and are irathererf Into Uie boats It can easily be gathered from the forgoinjr that it is not an un common thing to meet men minus hand or rinpore on the coast of Chile. A little farther north and we benln to cet amine the euana Islands, our noses recognizing this before our eves. Originally guana was the accumulation of the droppings of sea birds, together with the decomposed bodies of birds and hair sels. which are here found In grest numbers. Peru, with reckless prodigality, sold all these accumulations and now evei y week or so all the rocks In the guana Islands are swept by peons to co'.lect the smaller quantities of the deposit now found. After sweep ing the puana is gradtiallv colected in bulk a:;d In due time bale! and shipped.

Two days' more steaming brings us to Callao. generally spoken of as the port for Lima, but in reality a far fr.om unlnnortant cllv itself. From the har bor can be seen the glistening spires of l,lm:t shining brightly against the dull desert background. Lima itself Is a well built city after the Spanish style, the houses usually having the Indoor court or patio well arranged as a gar den, on which all the rooms open out. lUanv of the most elaborate buildings are made of mud and sun-burned bricks, so thut on the whole Lima would not welcome a heavy rain. As In most South American cities a close Inspection of the interiors of the buildings dooms one to a feeling of disappointment. The cathedral, for instance. Is of matchless architecture and possesses two fine tow ers not unlike a Turkish mosque, yet In side everything Is cheap .and tawdry. 1 1 All the valuables that Lima once pos sessed were looted by the Chilians, who have left but tho remnants of the once fine library and museum. Similarly Lima contains far fewer actual Inra relics than one would bo led to suspect from Its association with the lncu kings. Out of doors the fashionable appear ance of the women of Buenos Ayrts and Vulparaiso Is somewhat wanting In Lima, with the exception of what the ladies of the foreign colonies do to brighten things up. The Peruvian la dles are always acen on the street In large black mantas, a type of universal ly enveloping Bhawl. At bullfights and every out-door public function these mantas are absolutely de rlguer. There are a large number of Ameri cans at Lima so that with them and her groat natural advantages Lima will deserve passing mention in the histories that win reach home of the fleets last South American place of call. Tower of Silence Near Lis bon Fitted With Many Cruel Inventions. NEW BOOKS FOR TIIE LIBRARY STRAY TOPICS FROM NEW YORK NEW YORK. Feb. 22. The bulldlne department found Itself stumped the other day to classify the plans that were submitted by William K. anderbllt for a new building that he tb to have constructed on Fifty-second street between Madison and Park ave nues. The building may be either a garage or a two-family dwelling, or, more likely both. The building which is to cost $150,000 will be flanked by. a stable on either side; but the facade, nevertheless. Is to be In the Italian renaissance style. The basement is to contain a garage and there will be a billiard room in the rear on the ground floor. A central winding stair case with a foyer, an electric ele vator and a pergola that may be used for a summer garden are among the other features of the building, whose tipper floors are arranged for duplex apartments. The structure is to be seven stories high. Now that the use of automobiles has become common in New lork. there has been discovered a new form of "graft" for city officials. The city furnished the different department Heads wiin autos in order that they might save time in getting from place to place and thereby accomplish more wont. But Mayor McClellan has now discovered that the officials use the machines for their own private use, and It is not uncommon to see tho wife of one of the officials going about from shop to shop in a city-owned auto, with a city-paid chauffeur at the wheel, while ail repairs and the gaso- ffif line are paid for out of the city treas ury. The mayor intends to stop the private use of the machines, and while It may be Impossible to learn whether tho machine Is used for private purposes during official hours, it will be possible to eliminate the long Sunday trips which the officials and their families have, been accustomed to take In the city's cars. Mayor McClellan has sev eral plans under advisement, such as tlmechecks and speedometers for run ning down the guilty ones. When the dlfnlfied Judges ! the special sessions court in York f the other day ordered that the court be cleared for ventilation while tho bench -retired for luncheon, one seedy looking man kept his seat. One of the Judges spied the offender and or dered a court officer to eject him. The oftlcer hustled the man out of the room, and warned him never to return, threatening bodily violence if he dared insuK the honorable Judges again by as much as his presence. The court was reconvened, after the midday meal, and the Judge aat in the bench. "John Marshall to the bar." No John Marshall to that bar, at least, although his name was shouted till the crier was hoarse. Again the dig nity of Ihe court was- deeply offended. "Where la the prisoner," asked th Judge. "I know' piped up a weazened old man in the t ront "he's tue. fellow you threw out of the room at noon lime. William Randolph Hearst and his In dependence league has Invaded the quiet and fashionable old section of Manhattan, known as Orameroy Park, which Is located at Twentieth Btreet, near Third avenue. The new Independ ence league clubhouse will occupy the oia uerara mansion which is situated between tho Columbia University club and the Players' club. The latter club occupies the eld home of the famous actor, Edwin Booth. The old square Is fast becoming the center for fashion able clubs. The Princeton club Is to occupy the home of the late Stanford White, wh.i was killed by Harry K. Thaw, while the National Arts club has its quarters In the old Senator Tllden house. Tlio Gerard mansion Is to be remodeled to suit the needs of the Independence league, while a large banquet hall will bo erected on the open plot in tho rear. On Monday next, Gotham's famous Eden.Musee, which Is devoted chiefly to exhibiting wax figures, will cele brate Its 25th birthday. Although new exhibits have been added from time to time, tho idea as originally planned has needed little change. Consequently the museum holds a union. nlan'n among New York's overchanging amuse ment resorts, and is quite as famous as Madafne Tussaud's museum of wax figures in London. Since the museum opened, to the present time. 11.000,000 persons have nald for admission The largest number on a single day was 11,801, on October 1, 1900, when the Dewey celebration was on. Tho day of the famous blizzard In March, 1SB8, produced the worst day's biiH iness when exactly 17 people visited the museum. It has been the policy of the museum, to represent in wax, people prominent in the publjc eye with the result that one of the largest groups to be added shows the princi pals In the Thaw trial. Accusing him of being a cannibal, Mrs. Halleran, a vaudeville arttst, led her husbRnd to court the other morn ing on the ground that he had de voured her entire theatrical company. Mrs. Halleran's troupe consisted of her trained roosters, one piglet, a duck, a goose and a parrot. Falling to secure In New York an engagement which pleased her, she went west, leaving her husband behind. When she returned, her troupe was nowhere to be founr "I had to do It." Mr. Halleran told the court mournfully. '1 was broke and hungry. The pig went first, then the hens. The roosters ' frlcasee wero fine, so were the duck and sonse. broiled, but I never will forget the last words of that parrot." The cour! refused to find a verdict Halleran, either as a criminal or a cannibal cent years between members of Goth am's aristocracy and European nobility.

Po liceman Sheehan who succeeded him is said to have a snore that Is not annoying. PAINTS FIRST PICTURE OF CARNEGIE; REWARD Pittsburg, Feb. 21. Andrew Carnegie had his portrait painted 44 years ago by a Pittsburg artist, John Earle. still living. -Mr. Carnegie was unable to pay for the nalntlng. He did not get pos session of it until recently, but lias now rewarded the. artist handsomely. It was the first portrait of Air. Car negie ever painted. He was a voung man then, and was employed by the Pennsylvania railroad. Mr.. Earle said today that when he finished the portrait, his friend, Robert- McCargo, 'remarked: "That painting will be valuable some day. That man is goingr to be famous." Earle bas recently discovered the picture In an' old lumber room. He showed it to some friends, who sug gested that he send it to Mrs. Carnegie. She and her husband were delighted. The steel master has now settled an annuity upon Earle. The ' amount Is said to be $300 a year.

Edward Margo lles, a former dealer In fur and silk goods at 49 East Ninth street, was held at police headquarters last night on a charge of grand larceny. The arrest of Margolles is the result, according to Assistant ui8iricc Attornoy t;. LrosDy Klndleberger, of his participation In one of the largest commercial swin dling schemes that has cropped up In New York In a long time. While $40, 000 worth of goods are known to have been obtained unpaid for In Its opera tion, the total of profits frem the scheme is asserted to have been up- wara oi iivv,uvv. According to the police, two men. who gavevthelr names as Morris Ross and IsadorVlewls, came to Poughkeep sle n September, 1907, opened a retail dry goods store and did a good busi ness for a month. Ross and Lewis were then able to make a statement to the commercial agencies of $8,200 assets and $900 In bills "not yet due," which secured them a good rating and credit. It was learned later that Ross and Lewis went down to New York, made a tour of the wholesale goods houses and obtained from $100 to $300 worth of oods at each or the l.'O or more places, 'his they were easily able to do on their showing with the commercial agencies. xnese gooas were an snipped to the Poughkeepsle house on 60 days' credit. and from there sent out again to stores n a number or cities, where they were sold. Margolles' shop In East Ninth street was one of the "fences'' here. It is said. On November 26 the Poughkeensle house closed up and Ross and Lewis departed. Margolles went Into bank ruptcy.

The Tower of Silence now contains about 500 prisoners. While the prison was built for criminals of the worst class more than three fourths of the present inmates are political offenders, or mere suspects. It is affirmed that the records of the place show that no prisoner ever endured the life of torture more than 10 years. The majority die after two or three years' incarceration. The prisoners are not allowed to work, nor to have books or paoers or writing material of any kind. They are condemned to spend their days In idleness, their nights In the cotrin. In deed the edge of the coffin Is the only opportunity for sitting down In the cells. The prisoners have no names, only numbers, and even the numbers of their cells are unknown to them. No one knows his neighbor's face or form; even the faces of guards and Jailers are a mystery to the miserable prisoners for all wear black masks when on duty. Likewise the prisoners when out for their midday walk in the court yards, with cannon and rifles pointing at them from every quarter the prisoners in their funereal robes wear black masks like the seldiers who are ordered to kill any one offering the slightest resist ance or whispering a word In the Tower of Silence. 8t Joseph, Mo., Feb. 18.
