AN EXCITING RIDE. Galloping Over a Rough Mountain Road In the Andes. In going over oue of the mountain roads on the way to the crest of the Andes the traveler has need of steady nerves. A passage in"The Andean Land," by O. 8. Osborn, describes the journey. The road Is narrow and rocky and rutty and steep, with no walls to speak of except tumbledown ones that Increase the danger by their false sug- I gestlon of sufety, and In one place the wagon would fall '2,000 feet If It should roll off the edge of the inoun- - tain. The road has no graceful sweeps or round, easy curves as It takes Its way up the titanic heights, but rather It j zigzags like the teeth of n saw, ascend- , lug In short stretches and doubting j back at sharply acute angles, leaving very little room for a team and wagon to turn In when drlveu slowly aud carefully and two abreast. Now, Imagine. If you can, the horses driven madly in a gallop, no trot—that would be slow—but in quick, short. Jerky Jumps, such as the mustang-like | animals would make under the saddle when pressed. The short, high coach follows the cavorting horses. Jerking, careening and springing like a small boat sail- 1 ing in a wildly choppy sea. You per- \ ceive that the wheels are strong and the springs, too. and the whole rig evi- j dently Intended for chariot racing. The driver groans, yells, whistles shrilly, cracks his thick rawhide whip, lashes his horses and does everything he knows thai will inspire fear and j induce speed. All this you become ac. customed to in a measure on your dash up the narrow road dug into and ; blown out of the giant ribs of the tow ering mountains. AN INSPIRING TRIBUTE. Touching Scene Thr.t Occurred In the House of Representatives. From a volume by lion A. E. Ste venson. "Stuiie liing of .Men I llave Known, is lake!) this aeiotnit ot an incident which deserve., a place in memory: A touching scene occurred in the house of representatives a number of years ns" when an aged member from New Jersey arose and for the first time addressed the speaker. All eyes were turned in hi- direction as he stood calmh await: recognition, lie was tall. Sjiare .:s.d erect. ills ven erable appear.i nee ami indly expres sion. coupled with most courteous manners, at once commanded atten tion. As iti husky tones he again said "Mr. Speaker!" there came from the farthest end of tgreat hail in a whisper, but distinctly heard by all, the words, "Sweet Alice, IJeti Holt." A moment later aud from the lioor and gallery many voices blended in the familiar refrain. "Don't you remem ber sweet Alice, Ben Bolt?" The ovation which immediately fol lowed was such as is rarely witnessed In the great hall. Business was sus pended for the moment and the hand of the new member warmly grasped hy the chosen representatives of all parties and sections. It was au in spiring tribute, one worthily bestowed. The member was Thomas Dunn Eng lish. author of the little poem, sung in palace and cottage, which has found its way Into all languages and touched all hearts. The Man Behind the Gun. The late Admiral Erben had the good fortune or the merit to originate a ■ world circling phrase, "the mnn be hind the gun." He used It In a speech on the factors of success in naval war fare to emphasize the necessity of having efficiency, preparedness, run through the entire personnel. It was also a reminder that the enlisted men have a good deal more to do with bringing about victory than always appears in history or official reports. The expression was employed in BUP plementing the views of Captain Ma haD and attained circulation at once as epitomizing a whole library of In struction.—Boston Transcript. The Waters Under the Earth. Below a depth of sLx miles under the surface of the earth's crust it is be lieved that no water can exist in the rock formations, because the tremen dous pressure probably closes all pores. But above that level the quan tity of underground water is estimated i to be equal to one-third of all the wa | ter contained in the oceans. If poured j over the land surface of the globe the j j underground water would, it is averred, j be sufficient to cover it to a uniform i depth of from 3.000 to 3,500 feet. Rapid Transit.
