CHILI'S REVOLUTION. THE THRILLING STORY OF A CHILIAN GIRL. % Prisons Packed With Old and Young—Newspapers of the Peo ple Distributed by Girls—Presi dent Versus Congress. A very pretty little girl of 15 yenis of age, who is the daughter of a Chilian planter, adds to our understanding of the civil war in Chili by a very graphic and interesting letter which she has addressed to Harper's Young People. It seems to her, she says, that we would like to know 44 the reasons which have obliged the peaceful inhabitants of this country to declare war against the President, Don Jose Manuel Balmaceda." She thus nar rates the interesting story: 4 'For many months past the President had separated himself from the best men of the country; he called to the Minis try men without position and of bad reputation. The Congress exacted their dismissal, which the President refused, and ordeied the closing of Congress. It would be too long to describe all that took place during the winter, or to write at length all the abuses committed by the President aud his Ministers. Ac cording to the Constitution of this coun try the President has to govern with the Congress, but Balmaceda openly violated the Constitution and the laws. The time was approaching for the elections, and the people wanted to elect their own President, but Balmaceda had his own candidate, one of his favorites, whom the people and the Congress refused to accept. Balmaceda saw them very determined, and in December suppressed all public meetings. One night the Conservative party was holding a peaceful meeting iu the rooms of their own club, and Bal maceda sent armed soldiers to attack it. The members were not armed, sft they had to disperse. A boy, 19 years old, Isadro Osso, running away from the soldiers, was shot dead in the street. This embittered matters very much, for his father belongs to one of the oldest iff Santiago, and is very much respected oy all. 4 'The President went from one abuse to the other, the people trying by every possible means to arrange matters be tween him and the Congress, but he re fused everything. On January 1 the Deputies and Senators signed a solemn act exacting the abdication of Balmace da, and on the 7th of the same month the Chilian men-of-war turned against the President and declared themselves in favor of the Congress and of the peo ple. This movement was to have been seconded by the troops on shore, and then it would have beeu only a revolu tion of a few hours, but one of the mili tary chiefs advised the Government, who took most active steps to repress the re bellion, ordering the imprisonment of all the Deputies and Senators who had signed the act. Those who could escape went on board the men-of-war, others hid, and some were taken prisoners. New began a reign of terror; the Presi dent declared himself Dictator aud the country under martial law. He ordered the closing of the courts of justice, of all the public schools, all clubs, all the printing offices, dissolved the Naval School, the Board of Health -all the civilization of the country disappeared. The prisous are crowded with gentlemen and youug men. I4 A secret revolutionary committee was formed in Santiago, meeting now in one Since, now in another—constantly in anger and actively working for liberty. The fi ct counted at first with few re sources, but quickly organized an army of recruits on the island of Santa Maria, in thfi south of Chili, the young men from Santiago, Valparaiso, and other cities escaping in disguise in open boats, and as they could, to the lleet. Mean time, on laud, the suffering was terrible, and success seemed almost hopeless, for the Dictator had all the army, and con tinued recruiting the laborers from all the estates by forte. All the houses and estates of Opposition gentlemen were searched for arms, and many of the sou 9 flogged terribly to oblige them to declare where their fathers hid. Our dear old home, Sau Gabriel, of which I have writ ten so often, was entered by an armed force of ruffianly soldiers, who searched and pillaged the house, took all the finest horses, and conveyed as prisoners to the town of Lenares our overseer and two of our men servants. Fortunately, we were not there. As the soldiers have con tinued visiting the place it has been im possible for us to return there, nor is it safe in Santiago, so we have spent this sad summer on another farm. "In Santiago the Opposition founded two free newspapers, called La Hernia tion and El Constitutional. I cannot tell you how *'<"7 difficult it has been to publish them, ns the Government lias spies every where. The distributors of these papers are young girls aud ladies. In the month of February the fleet took possession of the port of Iquique, after several terrible encounters with large numbers of Government troops. This victory was followed by many others, but all have coßt hundreds of lives. Gentlemen and young men from Santiago have fought as private soldiers 011 the side of the Opposition, for this is a struggle for life, for civilization, and for the liberty which we have entirely lost under the Dictator. "The Opposition are now in possession of four rich provinces, from Tarnpnca to Coquimbo, aud we may expect from one day to another a decisive battle in the neighborhood of Santiago to end this time of suffering and despotism. Large numbers of Government troops have lately gone over to the Opposition, which have been enthusiastically received. I am glad to say that patriotism has been more powerful thau lialmaceda's gold, for while tho Dictator offered rewards the opposition work ;d only for their country. "Several lurop-an powers have already recognized the representatives of Congress as tho lawful government. The London Times and the Illustrated Lon don News have published interesting articles on the war in Chili." In closing, this womanly little girl, who signs herself "Ana Luisa J.," de clares that all correspondence has been impossible, letters being opened at the Post Office by order of the Dictator, and she sends this particular letter by a frieud who will post it in Valparaiso. Damming the Nile. The Egyptian Department of Public Works, at Cairo, is actually engaged ou the question of storage reservoirs. Since the cornnletion of the barrage the Nile has ceased to flow into the Mediter ranean for three months in the year. Mr. Willcocks has examined the whole valley of the Nile, from Cairo to Assonah, and reports that no water can be stored north of the First Cataract, lie has designed a dam, which might be built at Philee, but, unfortunately, this would only give one-third of the quantity of Hater re quired and, besides costing $3,750,000, involves the destruction of the well known ruius at Philop, which would be wholly submerged.—[American Agricul turist. Luxurious [Trains. The following description of the cate composing the Pullman new traus conti nental traiu is taken from the New York Sun: The train consists of vestibule drawing room and sl -eping cars, an ob servation car, a dining car and a com posite smoking car. The vestibule composite car is a magnificent affair, and is exclusively for men. A forward end is set apart for baggage. A compartment b&ween the baggage room and the main saloon is fitted up as a barber shop and a bath room. Adjoining the bath room is a cafe. The rear section of the car is a smoking room. The vestibule sleeping cars, of which there are four on this train, are said by the managers of the Pullram company to be the best exam ples of their work ever turned out. They uuch contain twelve sections of two double berths and two drawing rooms. Movable incandescent lights are attached to each section, in order to allow one to lie in a berth and read. In one of these sleeping cars is a bath room for ladies. The dining car, besides containing ten tables, at which forty persons can dine at once, also contains a kitchen large enough to allow four cooks to work ut once. An observation car will bring up j the rear. The body is an open sitting room, finished in hard wood and fur nished upholstered rattan arm chairs ana lounges. Among its conven iences are a writing desk, a large case of selected books, movable tables and an upright piano. But the main feature of the car, and the one which gives it its name, is the deep recess at the end of the car. The platform will accommo date about twenty persons. In the for ward portion of this car will be a small office, which will be occupied by a sten ographer and type writer, whose duty it will be to write and mail the letters of any or all of the tourists gratis. The Oldest Living Horse. The oldest horse on record is owned by Major Robert Maas, of Louisville, Ky., who possesses papers proving its age to be something over forty-seven years. Ivanhoe, as he is called, is a large bay, with a white spot on his forehead, and, up to a few years ago, of a gentle, affectionate disposition, but has grown peevish with his increasing age. This, however, is only manifested toward strangers, while he is devoted to hi 3 master and his children, who play about him with perfect fearlessness. Ivaulioe was stolen several times during the civil war, but invariably made his way back in safety to his pasture, having contrived in some way to escape his cuptors. lie bears on the right flank the scar of a gunshot wound received in the Mexican War at the battle of Buena Vista while ridden by Major Maas's grandfather. It is over thirty years since Ivanhoe has known bridle or harness, but spends his days strolling about his pasture, in which he will ullow no other horse to be placed, but will resent all intrusions with a vig orous use of his tcetli and heels. His faculties appear all unimpaired, with the exception of a total deafness resulting from a severe attack of a disease preva lent a few years ago. Far from being feeble, Ivanhoe moves briskly about and will often permit two or three of the younger children to mount and ride him about the pasture. He has, however, lost nearly all of his teeth and lives upon boiled corn and other soft food. He made his last appearauce in public at the cattle fair held in Lexiug tou last fall, and came home completely denuded of his rnanc and tail by people thus securing relics of the oldest horse known.—[New York Journal. Stronger Friends than Ever. No two members of Congress are more intimate than Benton McMillan of Tenn essee and Amos J. Cummings of New York City. But they are now stronger friends than ever. Recently something happened that brought this about. The two Congressmen went in an uptown resort and were entertaining a number of tbeir friends with stories of Congress ional life. Finally Mr. McMillan, in one of his stories, mentioned his native town in Kentucky. Mr. Cummings interrupted : "I re- ; member a family named McMillan in that town." 44 It must have been my father," said McMillan, and in answer to the question whether his father subscribed to the Chi istiau Worker he replied in the affirm ative. 4 'l remember tne paper well," he said, 4 'and my father used to look eagerly forward to its arrival." Mr. Cummings told his compan ion that his father had been editor and proprietor of the paper. 44 When I was a little boy," he said, 4, 1 used to address the wrappers for the out-of-town sub scribers. I well remember writing your father s name." 44 And I remmeber tearing those wrap pers for my father," said Mr. McMillan, and theie was vigorous hand-shaking, and in his high glee over his discovery Mr. McMillan gave to Mr. Cummings a hickory stick, once the property of Andrew Jackson, and it is likely that Mr. Cummings will return the compli ment at the next session of Congress.— [St. Louis Republic. Electric Storms. There arc regions of the globe where nearly every rainstorm is accompanied by violent electrical explosions, while in others thunder and lightning are as rare as earthquakes. The worst climate for I persons affected with a nervous dread of lightning is the east coast of San Do- j n.lugo, where the sky at the beginning | of the rainy season is often illuminated for • weeks by nearly continuous electric twinkles and flashes. In Western Cali fornia, on the other hand, the equilib rium of atmospheric electricity is so rarely disturbed that many old residents j of San Francisco have never heard a good thunder-peal of the traditional, window-shaking variety.—[New York Voice. A Somnambulist on a Trestle. George Wilson, fourteen years old, living in Rockport, had a narrow escape frJ.n death at an early hour Tuesday morning. The boy lives with his parents on a farm by the side of the river, about 200 feet from the Nickel Plate trestle bridge, the farm having &, roadway lead ing to the bridge. The boy is subject to sleep walking. Early in the morning he got out of bed while in a somnambulis tic condition and walked down stairs, passed his parents' room, and out on the farm. He came to the trestle work and started to walk across. Deputy Marshal Stanton hanucned to be at the other end of the bridge and saw a white figure, small in stature, rapidly approaching, lie stepped to one side until the boy ; passed, and then started to follow him. j Fearing that if he caught hold of him he might be frightened into a fit of sickness, he called him by name several times un til the boy awoke. Ilestood for several minutes wondering where he was. and almost fainted with fright. Stanton theu walked up to him and the boy recognized him.

So much has been written recently of the 44 ghost dance" and all its attend i ant horrors, that perhaps a brief descrip tion of what is known among the White Mountaiu Apaches as the 44 devil's dance" may not be without interest. The 41 devil's dance," notwithstanding the suggestive name, is one purely of peace, and is celebrated by these Indians in honor of their greatest chief, long since departed. From all that can be gathered it seems that the White Moun tain Apuches have been taught by tra dition, through the "medicine men," that their great chief disappeared with the setting of the sun, and that his return can only be secured by the adherence of his tribe to the manners aud customs prevalent during his all-powerful reign, llence, at stated periods certain forms aud ceremonies, the 44 devil's dance" among the number, are observed in token of their continued faith in his ul timate return. There are live principal actors or dancers, four of whom arc warriors, sup posed to represent the head chiefs of the several tribes located north, east, south and west, emblematic of his ack nowledged supremacy in the four quar ters of the globe. The fifth dancer is a small boy, perfectly naked except in the 44 gec string" aud heud-gcar; he imper sonates the spirit of the departed chief, and is supposed to be invisible at all times and to all people. The head-gear, which is a mask cov ering the entire head, is made of black cloth, with almost imperceptible slits for the eyes and mouth, and is drawn down under the chin and tied with a string. Surmounting all is the head dress proper, which proclaims the rank, dignity, and special office of each chief. Their costume is made up of the most gorgeous medley of colors and material it is possible to imagine. In the first place they arc stripped to the waist, around which is gathered a blanket of fantastic color and pattern ; then their bodies are painted an ashy hue, overlaid with grotesque designs iu black, one painted curiously like a skel eton, another with pointed bands of black running diagonally across his back, a third with crescents, each one apparently exercising his ingenuity to produce the most uncanny effect. To realize a scene so weird as the one here described, imagine yourself in the wilds of Arizona, the night a starlit one in January, with a strong breeze blowiug that chills you to the bone; a grand liv ing circle of human beings, numbering in bucks, squaws, and children not less than four hundred, gathered around a huge camp-fire of blazing logs; tom-toms beating, accompanied by a howling, rhythmical chant that would terrify the devil himself, and in the midst of all this to sec eight, ten, or a dozen bucks rush madly in the circle with some indescrib able monster, which proves to be a raw hide, but which at first sight reminds one of 44 01 d Nick" himself, aud which, indeed, it is iuteuded to represent. Thi9 the bucks fall upon with sticks and clubs, pounding it a3 if their very lives depended upon the violence and rapidity of their blows, at the same time joining the chant, which rises and falls in weird cadence to the torn toms. Then comes from the darkness a piercing sibilaut call, followed by woo hoo hoo, which can only be likened to the cry of a screech-owl; then the dancers appear, trotting in single file, brandishing bows and arrows aud long wooden swords, bowing, turning to right and left, jumping, and making gestures impossible to Uescnbe; up they rush to where the devil is being beaten, back they dance to the fire, around and arouud they fly, leaping and yelling, the spirit of the chief (the small boy) rivaling all in feats of agility and endurance, tho whole making night one hideous dream. Then, and only then, can one appreciate the novel sight witnessed on the banks of the Gila.—[Frank Leslie's Newspaper Inebriate Asylums. According to some figures recently published by the secretary of the Ameri can Association for the Cure of Inebri ates, the asylums established for that purpose iu this country have proved a success. More than fifty of these institu tions have been started in the United States, and there are thirty now in successful operation. There are twenty usyulms for inebriates in England and Scotland; only two in Germany, one in Switzerland aud uone in France, Norway and Sweden. The lack of such asylums in those countries does not mean that they have no inebriates, but rather that they have not yet risen to tho point of treating druukenness as a disease. They regard it as a vice. But inebriate asylums have been projected in all those countries. The results in the asylums already established arc declared to be highly gratifying in tho face of much discouragement, due to tho imperfect trial which many persons make of such institutions. Out of a thousaud letters from the friends of inmates of the institu tion at Binghamton, the percentage of total abstainers or temperate among the inmates after five years was sixty-two and a half. At Wa-hingtou Home in Boston after ten years, out of two thou sand cases of those persons who had been jin the institution there was a percentage lof apparent cures of thirty-four, and so iin other institutions. The legal control of inebriates being so slight, the won der is that the success has been as great as it appears Lorn these figures. But the usefulness of these asylums is not a matter of doubt, and where they require | public aid they ought to receive it.— [New York Times. Birth of the Car Cable. The sight of six horses vainly en deavoring to take a street car up one of the steep hills of San Francisco inspired in Inventor Halliday's mind the idea of • the cable car system. The hill was slip ' pery as well as steep. One horse fell | and carried down its mate. The othei horses tumbled, until the six were in o struggling heap. The weight of the cai dragged them down to the foot of the hill, bruising aud maiming them.

THE JINRIKISHA. Japan*. Favorite Motla of Tranaportatlon Quite a Koreas Invention. A two-wheeled vehicle called the jin rikisha, now Been on every road and in every village of Japan, savs a writer in Scribner's ftlagatirie, is a new inven tion, not yet quite a quarter of a cen tury old. No one positively knowa who introduced it, but it struck such root that in Tokio alone there are at pteseut between 30,000 and 40,000 of these two wheeled chairs, and they have spread to ChiDa and Malay, employing numbers of the working population, and adding an immense convenience to public life. Jinriksha signifies "man-power vehicle," and if you have two men to pull you the phrase for that is "ni-nim biki," the letters being a little altered by whnt Japanese grammar calls "Nigori." The Tokio citizens call their little cab "kuruma," whioh means "a wheel," and the cooly jwko pulls it is termed a kurumava. He must bring to his busi ness lungs of leather and siuews of steel; nor does one cease to wonder at the daily endurance of these men. In hot and oold weather alike, streaming perspiration or pelted with snow and sleet, they trundle you along, appar ently incapableoffatigue;always cheer ful, always, in my experience, honest and easily satisfied; sufficiently re warded for running a league with a sum equivalent to three of your dimes. The natives, who make bargains with them before starting, go immense dis tances for incredibly small fares, and constantly ride two together in the same conveyance. I have seen a kurumava cheerfully wheeling along a father and mother with threo children, to say nothing of the llower-pots, bird-cages, and bunches of daikon—the great and dreqdful rgdiaji of the country—carried in the family lap's. At the end of a long run a cup o) pale tea, a whiff at tho little brass pipe, and, perhaps, a slice of bread dipped in treacle, start them off again, trash and lively, for another stiff stretch. The men who took us to Nikko from Utsunomiva raa the entire twenty-fivs miles in four hours with ease, though much of it was up-hill, and would hav returned, had we de-ired it, the rams day. A jinrikisha man in good case and fairly paid is not at all afraid of forty or fifty miles day after day; nor is il true that their work makes them specially short-lived, so far as •my in quirios have gone. I am persuaded that vory advantageous uso could be made of this kind of transport in a cam paign. A kuruuia can go wherevei there is a path, and to draw munitions, provisions, stores, or to convey the sick and wounded, a corpse of jinrikisha men would be invaluable to au army. Ministers declare that in nine eases out ten brides are much more self-pos sessed than ure bridegrooms when the marriage ceremony is being performed. A shy, modest-looking littlo creature robed in white will Btand perfectly erect, looking the minister calmly and squarely in the eyo, without for an in stant losing her self-poise, while the big, blunt six-footer of a bridegroom by her side is pale, norvous, and trembling. His fingers are likely to twitch nerv ously, and lie may even hitch at his trousor logs or twist a corner of his coat skirt. I was once "best man" to a stalwart middle-aged bridegroom, noted for his courage aDd feats of daring, when the time camo for us to ge down-stairs to meet the bride and her attendants ho uearly had at fit, and he looked like a walking oorpse, all through the cere mony. I had to keep saying, "Ilraco up, old boy," and "Come, come, you've got to go down," to get him started at all, and at the door he was idiotic enough to clutch at me and say: "Say, Fred, how would it do to have Mary and the preacher slip in here and have it all over with before we go down at all 1 I can't go through it before all that orowd." "Idiot 1" I said briefly and pointedly enough to leave no doubt as to my meaning, "Mary won't come in here aud you will go down this instant." Ho got through it at lost without do ing or saying anything ridiculous, in which respect lie was luckier than an other stalwart bridegroom of my ac quaintance, who was so dazed and over come that he held out one of his own fingers for the ring when the minister said, "With this ring I tliee wed." Another bridegroom I know lost his head to such a degree that when it came time for him to say, "I, Horace, take thee. Annie, to be my lawful wedded wife," he said in an unnaturally loud toue, "I, Annie, take thee, Horace, to be my lawful wedded wife;" and when the time came for him to intro duce hta bride to some oi his friends who had not yet seen her, he did it by saying awkwardly, "Ah, er—Miss Car tor, this is my wife, Miss Barton," call ing her by her maiden name. Few men say "my wife" easily and naturally the first time they use the words iu public. A funny case was that of the badly rattled bridegroom who stared blankly at tho minister until asked if he took "this woman to be his lawful wedded wife," when he started suddenly and hastily and said in the blandest manner: "Ah, beg pardon—were you speaking to me A village preacher says that he once married a rural couple at the home of tho bride's parents in the presence of a large company of invited guests. The bridegroom was a big, bony, red-fuced young fellow, who looked as though ho oould have felled an ox with his fist; but he shivered and turned pale at the beginning of the ceremony, and at its close he foil down in a dead faint, to the manifest annoyance of his bride, who | had been as cool as a cucumber throughout the ceremony.

Something About Dreams It seems that sleep soon after mealt does not cause worse dreams than the simple and very prevalent habit of seek ing to court the sleepy god with arms against the headboard. The worry which may ue caused by the habit oi tying with the arms resting above the bead, according to this experimeuter, could not be induced by an after-dinnei nap after freely partaking of sauerkraut and pickles. Mr. Lewis seeks to ex plode the old theory that somnabulism is caused by weighty trouble on the mind of the sleeper, and he combats the idea that any great proportion of dreams are the results of trouble, worry, and excitement. His theory that "the many dreams we dream" are but the rc- Bults of wares of thought across the brain, he thus aptly illustrates from ati experiment: "While one watched the sleeper and the other the clock, the third loudly slammed tho door about ten feet awav. The effect was almost instantaneous; the man sprung up at the sound, looked around in alarm, and then exclaimed: 'Thank God that it was only a dieam P " It seems that he had dreamed of being on a crowded street in front of a building which the people about him pronounced unsafe, but that he still lingered near the toppling wreck. Then he tried to elbow his way through the crowd to a place of safety. But the people jeered and laughed anil held him fast. He begged, coaxed, threatened, and entreated, still they held him, till the building fell and the shock broke the spell. He must have dreamed the entire dream in a second, yet it seemed to him that he was in dan ger as long as half an hour before the final awakening scone was enacted. To put the thought-Hash theory beyond dispute, many experiments were in dulged in. Sometimes a weight was lei drop, a chair struck, or the blinds Blammed. In every instance the sleeper had dreamed of some startling adven ture. To Contributor*. Taverner, of the Boston Post, makes a suggestion whioh may be commended, with some grains of allowance, to all contributors to The Companion. "I doubt," he says, "if Shakespeare him self would have furnished good 'copy' if he had attempted to put down his plays with a pencil and a pad," and he con tinues: The late Philip Welch, who flooded all the comic papers and some of the serious ones, with the most original, the most concise and pointed paragraphs, wrote each one—they were always short—in the middle of a sheet of good, thick note paper. Thus he secured two advantages. Having a sheet of paper for each joke, he was under no temptation to lengthen his witticism to suit the page; and the nature of his material, such as one . would use for an invitation to an even ing paity, naturally led him to be con cise and finished—to have a beautiful bon mot iu the middle of a beautiful expanse of white. I will only add that I make these ob servations chiefly for the benefit of my friend Penloper, whose comparative tailure as a humorist I attribute to bis use of cheap yellow paper, and au ill sharpened pencil.
