TROOPS OF BOLIVIA.
Warriors Who Array Them
selves in Brilliant Colors.
There Are as Many Officers as
Men in the Army.
Military parades, writes Fannie B.
Ward to the Washington Star from La
I’az, Bolivia, are always frequent here,
doubtless with a view to impressing
the people with their powers, but now’
hardly a day goes by without a grand
display of cavalry and infantry, rank
and tile, evoluting around and around
the plaza. Martial music is continu
ally in the air.
At stated intervals duving every day
a company of soldiers comes sweeping
down the hill from one barrack or up
the hill from another, marching be
hind a brass band in full toot and halt
ing before the president’s casa, where
they render a selection or two for the
delectation of the people. It is only
| the ceremony of guard mounting, and
although it occurs every few hours,
: year in and year out, it is invariably
attended by the same flourish of music
and musketry. Besides ad this it has
been the custom from time immemor
ial to hive military music in front of
the palacio two nights in every week
and on the evenings of most fiesta
days, when three bands stationed in a
row play alternately, each musician
with a soldier before him, whose back
serves as a rack for the score, ivhile
gaily caparisoned officers off duty
swarm like mosquitoes and crowds of
people promenade around and around
the plaza.
All the soldiers are obliged to attend
' Sunday mornings, “clean
mass 011
shirt day,* as it is irreverently called,
and an interesting sight it is to see
them come marching in with shining
bayonets over their shoulders, each di
vision headed by its officers. They
completely till die body of the church
and the sound of the organ is drowned
by the l)!are of trumpets. At a signal
arms arc presented, down goes every
i musket upon tho stone floor with a
which shakes the building and
! d ,en mcn 8tai, d motionless as stat
I tlie V>-opcv time comes to fall
1 upon their knees.
I Jn the Bolivian army a great variety
j of uniform is noticeable, each officer
j having apparently been allowed to ex
I cruise his own taste in the equipment
! of liis company, and amazingly have
1 tlicir individual fancies swung 0 out in
! ,
the matter of personal adornments.
The e arc suits in gray and gold, in
black and gold, in blue and gold, in
; blue and red, in black and bine, in
' gray and black; others all red, all
gray, all blue; and caps of various
shapes and colors in tho same regi
ment. Some of the officers wear long
doublcd-caped overcoats in scarlet
\ sloth, others gray cloaks not unlike
those of Franciscan friars, and others
the graceful satin-lined cTculars of
black broadcloth characteristic of
Spanish hidalgoes.
The “President’s Guards,” which we
see careering about the ciiy iu gor
geous array, are, of course, tho crack
regiment—in dress and demeanor as
far removed as the antipodes from the
shabby, bare-footed, common soldiers.

a thousand men clad iu scarlet from

Americans can.
Without disparaging the valor of
Bolivian soldiers their general ge'-up
reminds ouo of an historic incident
which may pci hups illustrato their
character.
It was many years ago, in some fra
cas between Peru and Bolivia, when
the armies of the two countries rushed
forth to battle with banners flying.
So splendidly arrayed were they and
so stunning an appearance did they
make that when one beheld the other
bo h sides turned tail and fled in con
fusion. Gathering courage at length,
the rival generals, with such men as
they could rally, returned to face one
another, keeping at respectful distance
and talking through trumpets, when,
after considerable parleying, tho war
was declared “off,” both armies
marched homo in triumph with flags
unfurled, and to this day the 1 :eal
historians of both countries chronicle
their side as victorious.
In connection with tho difficulty of
placing Bolivia’s soldiers according to
their uniform it may be mentioned !
that her armies are composed of about
as many officers as men. From time
immemorial it lias been the object of
ruling powers to render the military
loyal to the government through pride
of self-interest, if not from patriotism.
Thus we see corporals nourishing >
in toggery of colonels, with pay I
to correspond, and the leader of one of
tlie bands wears the full uniform of a j
general and receives the honors and
emoluments pertaining to the latter
position.
Hawaiian Peculiarities.
“The Sand which Islands form tho
most cosmopolitan section I ever vis- I j
ited,” said Robert J. Ankinson, who
was in the city yesterday on his way
to Boston after a trip to Honolulu.
“English, Americans, Chinese,
Spaniards, Portuguese, South Sea
Islanders, Germans and natives are so
mixed up and have intermarried until
a pure-blooded person of any nation
ality is hard to find among the younger
generation. This intermarriage lias
produced a peculiar race in itself, but
the white blood predominates and tho
whitest men control the government,
while English is the official language.
All the courts have three or four in
terpreters, oil account of the different
people that make up the population.
Nine men on a jury can convict. A
native is entitled to a native jury, and
a foreigner to a jury of foreigners. In
a case involving both, the jury is half
and half.
“If a visitor remains on the island
more than thirty days, he cannot leave
without a passport, and he cannot gei
a passport as long as there is any
charge made by a citizen pending
against him. So he can't, run away
from his debts and board bills, for the
steamers will not carry him unless hi?
papers are all right.
“I visited the leper settlement. Con
sidering their condition, they form a
very contented community. The three
cornered plot forming the scttlemem
is bounded on two sides by the sea and
on the third by a high bluff. The
lepers are well cared for, and the gov
ernment spends vast stuns of money
every year to provide them with every
thing they want.”—[New York Star.
Hard Riding.
In Turkey the sultan’s mails and
disp itches from ou lying province
used to be carried by Tartars riding
post, with relays of horses changed
cve r y 20 or 30 miles, and are now in
some parts of the country where tele
graph has not been established. The
same man in charge went tho whole
distance; these couriers would often
perform great feats of endurance.
From Bagdad to Constantinople is
1,000 mites, not over a level or robing
prairie, but frequently crossing moun
tain ranges, along precipices, aero-s
to;rents, etc., and there is not a mile
of made road the whole way, yet tin
ordinary time the Tartars took to per
form the distance was a fortnight, and
on urgent occasions it has been dune
in twelve days, and even in eleven
days.
There is no doubt whatever about
this, because the route through Asia
Minor, fi*om the Persian Gulf, was in
former days, before (lie Red Sea route
was established, often used by officers
and others who did not mind rough
travel and were in a hurry to get homo
or to get out to India, and they often
rode with the Tartars from end to end,
besides which the British resident at
Bagdad, or rather the residency, was
for more than a century in the habit
of transmitting disnatehes from Iudia
v. *
to Constantinople and Europe by
means of these same carriers, As
much as lot) miles per day has oficn
been done for eight or ten days by the
Tartars. They only rested fuiir hours
out of the twenty-four, and pitched 011
the rest of the lime at a rate of C to 10
miles an hour. — [Galveston News.
