Some Things You Want to Know Turbulent Central America--Guatemala, Leader of Republics Whether it be in the importance of its business atfairs, in the position of influ- ence It holds among the group of little re- publics, or in the advanced policies of Its government, Guatemala takes first rank among the five nations of Central America In no other way s the progressivensss of the Guatemalans shown 0 well as by fact that the study of English made 1 the public Even the primary buplis are compci.ed to study it In lssul tae er tie dent sald that there are oo man tunities open to the master of Lnglisa permit the Guatemalan youlh to gruw without a speaking knowieage of it Another iliustraton of the enterprise of the Guatemalans is thelr determination to have raii connecdon witn United stries. They are arranging to have thel DRITUW-GAURe T ds v idened, una all links filled to give them connection with national lines of Mexico, and through them with New Orieans, Chicago, Washington and York. 1t Iy expeeted that tie concesslons aircady granted will resuit in the early compiecion of this work It then will be possible for the traveler to ake a Pullman in New York or San Fran- ecisco and go to the very heart of Central America without chagge of cars. Guatemala is the most popu.ous of the five republics, having a population of nearly 2,000,000 souls. Salvador is the only other state with 1,000,000 people. Guatemala has the densest popuiation, with the ex- ception of Saivador, and Is the only one of the republics with an export trade amount- ing to more than $10,000.000 a year. Coffee is its principal article of export, alihougi tropical fruiis, precious and dye-woods and minerals add much to the total the things it has to sell. There are thrie principal classes of peo- ple in Guftemala—the whites, who are mainly Spaniards and Americans; the In- dians, who have maintained thelr raclal integrity through four centuries of white domination, and the Ladinos, who are a kind of raclal jumble, with the blood of three of the five great races of mankind in their veins. The whites are exclusive and are unpopular with tHe Ladinos, who are In turn hated by the Indians. The whites are cultured, but fond of ease and luxury. The Ladinos work, but the Indlans shirk as long as necessity will permit. The latter refuse to be civilized and their main way of making money Is by competing witii the little Guatemalan donkeys as freight carriers, Bands of Indlans come into the cities bearing all sorts of burdens on their backs or heads. They have a queer custom of trotting like horses for long distances, keep- ing regular step as they go. One may be carrying a cupboard, another a sofa, an- other a bureau, another a barrel and an- other & lot of chickens. Sometimes an In- dian, his mule and his wife travel to- gether, each well laden. The woman may have a load on her head and & baby on her net, the mecapal being a band around the forehead, to which the net Is attached—a sort of carry-all for small packages. The Irdian bends over as he walks and the load in the net rests on his back. The mecapal is & fit companion to the yoke which is at- tached to the horns of an ox instead of to the neck, Many business men prefer the Indian freight carriers to mules and oxen. Nearly two-thirds of the entire population of Guatemala are Indjans, and most. of them live-in the same primitive way that their ancestors did ‘before the arrival of Columbus. They. knew nothing about in- toxicants in those days, however, so that their chief dissipation has come with white civilization. They are now hard drinkers. At an Indian funeral one may see the “mourners” carrying jugs of liquor, and the debauch, begun shortly after the death of the occupant of the coffin, reaches a grand climax shortly after the interment. The productivity of the soll of Guatemala 1s almost beyond belief. When the traveler to Central America is told that fence posts grow in the ground he is apt to be skep- tical, but when he gets there he sees it with his own yes. The posts begin to sprout and finally take root and flourish as A 3,000-acre plantation in Guatemala produces each year 1,200,000 pounds of cof- fee, 30,000 pounds of sugar, 300,000 bottles of cane rum and 22,00 gallons of milk. The regular force on this plantation varies from %0 to 1,300 hands, Coffee i the principal crop of the country and amounts to about 76,000,000 pounds annually. the has been compulsory schools prasi oppor- w up the in the dircet New of The government is trylng to encourage the growing of hennequen, a variety of sisal hemp, and Is offering & bounty on all that Is exported. At the same time all machinery for growing of hennequen and the manufacture of {ts fibre is allowed to enter the country free of duty. The growers are alro given military exemption in proportion to the number of acres of this erop they cultivate. There are nearly #0 medicinal plants which grow in Guate< mala. besides 140 kinds of commerciall valuable wood Altogeiher It has 400 species of trees. Gustemala was settied In 1522, and since that time there have been some fifly im- poriant voleanlc eruptions within its bound- arles. Fully half of these were eruptions by Fuego, one of the ‘most remarkable vol- canoes on the globe. It I8 noted for the larity of Ws T ¢ eruptions and, for its rumbings. Some 30 Important earth- quakes aiso oceurred in Guatemala auring the same period. In the eenturies before the Spaulards came to Central Ame fca the Indians sought to appease the wrath of the volcanoes by turowing malidens Into the flery craters.

Yellow fever epidemi¢s have seldom af- fected Guatemala, and deaibs from other tropical diseases aré more Infrequent than hip. Most of the men have a mecapal and would be supposed. The greater part of the country has considerable elevation, ve and it is said that an aseent of one mile | is equivalent, in climatic chang:, to travel- ling northward 1,00 miles. from the equa- tor.

GIRL FOURTEEN AND VERY FRAIL Unable to Work, So Mrs. Grath, Soath Omah Vainly Tries to Get Corn Me- Thrice foense for Her and Ed Lear. A girl stood before the bar of juvenile court. A slight figure shook with sobs; tears streamed down her checks. Her age was 14, but she seemed not that old. There was evident lack of proper nutrition and physical development had not been speedy. Some allment had set its mark upon her complexion The child was in court because of the re- peated attempts of her mother to marry her to a youth named Edward Lear. A matdh-making Instinet has pursued a strange course in the case of Mrs. Cora McGrath of South Omaha as directed to- ward the little girl whose given name is Mary. Three times has the mother tried to se- cure a marriage license. First in Omaha, a second time at Council Bluffs, and again at Puplilion, the authorities have refused to grant the desired permit. The juvenlle aufhorities heard of the case and brought Mrs. MoGrath, Mary Mc- ReG Grath and five other children into court. There 1s a father, too, Frank McGrath, who was brought to court from jall, where he s sald to be serving & vagrancy sen- tence. McGrath is a cripple, having lost an arm some months ago. The child mer- riage he has not favored, and an aunt, too, has opposed It to the extent of warning authorities against issuing a license, He in & Mere Boy. Edward Le: the desired bridegroom, gives his age as 2. He has besn living in the McGrath home, It Is asserted by the aunt and by another woman who was a witness in the court room that Lear & year 280 was married, going through the cere- mony, but that he and this girl nev lived together, so that Lear did not con- sider he had been married. It is asserted that Lear Is not 21 as he says, but 18, and that he was 17 when the alleged marriage took place. The reason why Mrs. McGrath desired the marriage was brought out at the hear- Ing. Mary 1s too young and weak to work," she told a probation officer, “and If she was married she would not have to work.” Final disposition of the case has not been made. It is the expressed intention of the court to provide for all the chii- drén and Mary McGrath, Ihstead of being allowed to become a child bride, will be given a comfortable home. J. E.

These rates take the place of merchants' meetings, for which the railroads granted certain rates which were good only on certain days.
