A Nebraakan traveling for business and
pleasur. In Ecuador give, an entertaining
drJertptlon of the country and it. people
in a private letter to a clergyman In
Omaha. The writer say. In part:
In October last I went to the interior of
Ecuador, visited Ibarla. Quito. La Tacunga
Rlobamba. Ambato. etc.; w CaUpaxI
Chlmbaraao. CaUcachl and .ome of the
other .now-capped mountain, of the An
deau range. Catapaxl is beautiful, i torn

Atlantic Everywhere wa. evidence of the
early fathers of the church. I dare may
that the mo.t marked evidence of their
work la shown In the Indian., who retain
.in, . wonderful tenacity, la spite of
cruelty and oppression of centuries, the
latth. This was nior. conapiuuuu. (
wonderful to me than the old cathedrals
and church edifice, of one kind and an
othei. In Quito I aw workmen opening
a new doorway through the wall of the
cathedral. I meaaured the thickness of
the wall; H wa. nine feet, brick and
mortar, and the opening not yet effected.
There m.y hve been aeveral feet of wall
yet to penetrate. The Jesuit, have by
far the handsomest church. Jt wa. begun
In the colonial day., before the .uppreselon
of th. order and flni.hed after their
restoration. 1 found some wonderfully
clever men of different nationalities among
their group In Quito. They .howed roe over
their place In Quito. A wonder It la. The
library U a trea.ure.
Ca.toma of the People.
Th. custom, of the Interior people are
very dletinct from ours. Moat noticeable to
me wa. the tilth, poverty and lndu.try of
the working people the Indian and half
breed. Their system of agriculture Is mo.t
primitive. They plow with a pair of oxen
bitched to a croa. .tick, and In thl. way
only scratch the surface of the .oil, as they
haVe don. .Inca the coming of the Bpanlsh,
some 400 year. ago. The driver of the oxen

In the end of a long .tick, which he use.
quite frequently while following In the
furrow behind the plow. At harvest time
they gather their crop, by mean, of a
small hand hook, many of them working
abreast In a Meld of grain. Catching the
stack, of grain with one hand they quickly
rut close to the .oil with the hook in
th. other hand. Then thl. is all moat
carefully gathered. Little children only
able to walk go about picking up any stray
head of grain that may have been over
looked by the older people. From thl. on
they work a. we do until the threshing,
aad then come, the waste. They tear down
the .tacks and scatter the grain about and
then turn on a herd of cattle, and by shout
and prodding they keep the cattle In a
circle and constantly going. When they
think the threshing completed they throw
all In the air on a windy day and let the
wheat, barley or whatever the berry may
be fal to the ground and the chaff blow
away. But much of the grain Is trampled
Into the earth and never recovered. The
entire proceeding, from the preparation of
the .oil for the seed to the marketing of
the grain, excepting alone the stacking.
which i. always well done, appears like
baby play In comparison with our methods.
Their root crops are better handled.
Nearly everything Is grown under Irri
gation. The irrigation system, are remark
ably well done. One plant, very old, I wa.
told, which I think would have puzzled a
modern American engineer to Imitate, waa
very ingeniously handled by the Indians.
The water was taken out of a river at a
point where the banks were perpendicular
and diverted Into a tunnell which was con
machlqul, and as he trot, along he get. a
certain quantity of thl. .tuff in his finger,
and with the proper motion of the arm he
tosses It home, and while his fingers never
get nearer than twelve Inches of hi. lips,
ao expert Is he at the game that bis calcu
lation 1. unerring and he never misses his
mark. Children, when they begin on this
food, spot their faces up considerable and
some of them look a. though they had gone
through a Pari, carnival, but the grown
people never have a mark of a bad shot.
When crossing a stream I have seen them
take drink the same way.
I wish I wa. tourist enough to have car
ried a kodak and snapshot a few objects
and sights for you for Instance, a fOur
deck coop of chickens strapped to the back
of an Indian woman going to market and
her baby perched on top of the chicken
coop and her hands busily employed spin
ning cotton or wool always occupied, they
are never Idle.
In Quito, at 8:80 dally mass at the
Cathedral, all the bells are rung at the
struoted parallel with the river, but on a i consecration. Then the people generally all
lighter grade, for a distance of two miles
until good, open ditching ground was
reached. At distances of about 100 yards
there were openings made in the face of the
wall which allowed the excavators on the
work to enter the line and prosecute the
wcrk of the tunnel from many points of
attack. It must have taken years to con
struct that tunnel.
Hooky Koada to Travel.
At one point on my' road I had to cross
a stream. Rio Provldencla it was called.
Why that and not Hlo Diablo I cannot un
derstand. From the point where I began
the descent to the stream to the top of the
bank on the opposite side was a distance
of certainly not more than one mile across.
yet my pocket barometer showed that from
the first descent to the water was more
than 6.000 feet, by sig-iag route. Then I
had to make the same ascent by the same
sort of roadway on the opposite side to get
on me plain again. The entire formation
wa. volcanic and Interesting.
My entire Journey covered a distance of
over 1,000 miles, all made on foot, horse and
muleback and on top of a diligence, and
from sea level to over 11000 feet altitude.
Scenery from the densest of tropical
Jungles where one's vision, owing to the
dense growth of vegetation, la not more
than fifty feet and the rainfall la more
than tiM Inches per annum, to the other ex
treme of dry, barren wastes on the par
amaa and the nights are terribly cold.
(tlUrtal aad Primitive Kraut.
I was favored with the hospitality of Gen
eral I'lasa, liberal president of the republic,
at a banquet and enjoyed the courtesies of
the archbishop and bishops who are Just
now engaged In a great struggle with the
government for having paasud a com
pulsory civil marriage law at the last con
gresa. I also feasted on parched corn and
machlqul with the lonely Indian when I
could find nothing else. This machlqul
stuff is a great game to play at. It is a
sort of flour made from pounding wheat,
barley, corn and other grains between

Wayside Scenes
On my way in after going several days
on foot I found a horse for myself and
one to carry my baggage, and thus was
able to dismiss my cargadores. My bag
gage was quite enough cargo for the poor
Deast that was burdened with It, and so
the owner had to go on foot, driving the
pack horse before him. As we entered the
city of Ibarla, going over the bridge that
marks the city's limit, my guide stopped
before the cross that is cut In the solid
stone cap, uncovered, blessed himself,
bowed his head and assumed the most
humble attitude and remained so about a
minute. Then, as If startled from a night
mare, be ran after his poor horse that
was nibbling a few blades of grass several
paces In advance and began to beat the
poor beast frightfully, as though the theory
of transmigration of the soul had Just been
revealed to Mm and be commanded to
punish the soul of the suffering one. When
I reached my destination I paid him off
and a little more in addition. He again
put on the humble and uncovered, care
fully wrapped his hands In his poncho
aa If to Impress me that he would not
deign to pollute me by so much as a touch
of the hand, but with the covered hands
he grasped the hand that gave the money
and In a most chivalrous manner as these
people of all classes and all ages can do-
bent to kiss the same. He was to take back
a saddle I borrowed, but ss In the old
song, "he never came back again." I have
paid the owner $30 fur the aaddle and we
are now looking for my gallant knight

A Slraager la Tom
I arrived In one little pueblo on my way
j tnto Quito after crossing the paramo of
gry, and like a professional mendicant
made straight for the house of the cura.
Concento they call the parochial residence
here. I found the cura and all fits house
hold at evening devotions In the church.
In the interior the convento always Joins
the church. When finished with the de
votions the cura received ma and without
asking who I was, where I was from, my
business or religion or anything else, simply
said, "I see you are a stranger. You are
welcome to the best I have and you have
at your disposition the poor cura of Mach
Ungul." I was then provided with a good
supper and given the best bed he had.
Certainly no one could have done more nor
shown more genuine hospitality than this
young cura. The next morning he was up
early for his first mass at 6 a, m., and in
sisted upon me using one of his saddle
horses to the next town. On my return I
stopped to call and pay my respects. He
was absent In an adjoining parish, which
he also looks after. Ills major-domo In
sisted upon having prepared for me some
breakfast, and while waiting for breakfast
some of the people of the town came in
to have a look at me and to size me up,
so to say. I observed the major-domo
holding earnest conversations with those
people. When about to leave, after break
fast, the cura returned, and well for me,
too, I believe, that he did; for It appears
that some of the hot heads of the place
would have It, In spite of the major-domo's
protest, that I was a missionary and they
were going to give me a warm reception.
After delaying awhile the cura rode with
me through the principal street and out on
to the highway for several miles, and gave
me a nice note to the cura in the next
town, Otavale. Only the week previous a
clodhopper from Adams county, Nebraska,
with a Jayhawker companion, went Into
Otavale to convert the heathen. They were
very promptly told that they were not
wanted In the plaoe and to "move on," but
they persisted In distributing their tracts.
bibles, etc., and annoying the Inhabitants
of the place with personal solicitations.
Then the people rose up In their wrath and
there was a "hot time In the old town
etc. Our Indiscreet missionaries were not
looking for martyrs' crowns, but only an
opportunity to earn their salaries, so they
fled to the barracks and sought and secured
protection from the soldiers for three days
and nights, and then were got out of town
and back to Quito without further Incident.
o rointrr Like Ours.
I am Inclined to fancy If our Nebraska
missionary friend has recovered from his
fright nnd stopped running, he Is to be
found down on the Little Blue getting ready
for next season's "crops," and If he Isn't
there It's because he hasn't stopped run
ning yet. As a Nebraskan I am not very
proud of his discretion or valor. The
Simpson Institute of Kansas City that sends
out these chaps probably ha. a vacancy
to fill In Ecuador. It 1. very strange, but
a fact, that the laws of Ecuador, a Catholic
country, and the state religion is the Cstho
11 o religion, prohibit a Catholic priest com
ing here from other countries and officiat
ing, yet her doors are wide open for the
clergy of any and all other denominations
to come here and labor.

"long, sweet dream," and has given wrm
to the public, or such of It as cares to
Invest, his clan In a pamphlet under the
title of "Modern Paradise The Grandest
Dwelling Place on Earth."
Briefly, Prof. Oelrich proposes to erect
on a plot of ground four miles square and
containing about 10,000 acres of most fer
tile land, a plant which will comprise a
compartment house, a power plant and a
workshop or manufactory. These build
ings are to be located In the center of the
plot of ground, and around ara to be the
broad fields from which the co-operators
in the scheme will gather such bountiful
crops that they will not only always have
plenty, but will be able to reap enormous
profits. Here Is the way the author de
scribes the plant in his 'own words:
The writer feels confident that under

living and working, from two to three
hours of pleasant, self-employed labor a

able for industrial purposes are few. but
wc btlicve there is no limit to the num
ber of srtilli-lal ones that may be con
structed at almost any desirable place, and
how easily tills may be done we shall now
endeavor to demonstrate briefly by wj. js
and Illustrations.
The Triune Power plant, or artificial
waterfall, here designed is. we bellove an
efficient coml'nitlon of -Und. water (or
compressed air) and electric power.
A large artificial lake, a thousand or
more feet square, is constructed by build
ing a high embankment for enclosing a
larite Quantity of water. Into this elevated
lake powerful windmills continually puniD
the water to a high head, perhaps slx'y
or even 1U0 feet. From this elevated lake
the water can le rushed against a series of
water wheels located In the power house
at the foot of the lake. With such a high
head a comparatively small quantity of
water exerts an enormous force for run
ning dvnamos.
Tha steel towers of the windmills can be
firmly Imbedded In the heavy embankment
siirroiimllns' the elevated lake, so that
nothing less than a regular tornado could
wreck the poweriul windmills.
After the. water has tierformed Its work
at the wheels, it flows into an excavate 1
luke, which extends all around the elevated
one. Prom this excavated lake the busy
windmills are again and again pumping
the water into the elevated lake, so that
the same water may be used over and over
again. Originally the water can be pumped
out of the earth.
Work for the Idle Wind.
Compressed air instead of water may alsi
be used, and In many respect. It would
even be preferable.
A large cylindrical reservoir, perhaps 4,000
feet long and ten feet In diameter, for the
storage of compressed air, placed around
a square 1,0J feet on a side and several
feet below the surface of th. earth. To
this huge steel reservoir the steel towers
of the windmills can be firmly bolted.
The power house of the Triune Power
plant contains three principal mechanisms.
The water wheels, the dynamos and a largo
series of electric storage battery cells for
stoiing large quantities of electricity tor
future use.
When compressed air Is used, air engines

Not out of the dust of the earth ara they
to be derived, but from the very select of
mankind. Hear him:
The selection of members is perhans the
most importunt as well as the most critical
feature of the whole organisation. No
financial contribution should be required of
the members, and no one shquld be ad
mitted solely on the strength of his mere
wenlth. The requisite amount of culture la
all that the members should be required to
furnish, and only those who feel spontane
ously Inclined to proceed In the direction
outlined by the association should enter aa
members. Any man or woman who would
know how to live In harmonious, co-operative
life would, therefore, be eligible as a
probationer.
Matters of Detail.
Other details are handled with the same
delightful disregard for materialistic condi
tions, and arrangements are made for the
common ownership of property for the divi
sion of such profits as may result from the
surplus of production, for the sustenance
of each member and his security In the en
joyment of peace and prosperity under ths
beneficent workings of the plan. Occupa
tions, recreations and amusements are nil
worked out, and the author In his rhapsody
concludes:
Many men and women would also pass
much of their time In the eleerant Inven
tor's shop and the gallery of fine arts,
richly equipped with all kinds of the finest
tools and machinery. Perhaps more useful
Inventions and works of art would originate
In one such prosperous colony than in all
the world besides, and the introduction of
ever so many labor-saving Inventions will
never throw any one out of employment
there. Everybody would there learn to
play, to work, to think and to rest, and
there would be abundant time for all of
them.
The subject Is pursued through several
additional pages of the pamphlet, but the
professor shows no signs of awakening,
even at the end, for he proposes to sell his
little work of twenty-nine pages st 50 cents
per copy, and to devote a portion of the
profits to bringing about a realization of ths
dream he has so plainly Set down.
