He leaves two daughters, Mrs. Q Goin Diceerss Pra Charles Scott Haley While Callao has little to interest the traveler in the way of historic monuments, the capital city of Lima is fascinating: Its central plaza, the Plaza de Armas, was at that time flanked one one side by a} magnificent. cathedral, in which the remains of many aircraft) Spanish notables, including Pizarro, the original conqueror. are interred. The later; now a shrunken mummy, enclosed in a glass case, is still one of the points of interest which ail travelers visit; not that it is a thing of any great beauty. The Cathedral itself; however, built in the early sixteenth century, is beautifully proportioned and richly decorated in the manner of the early Spanish friars. : On two sides of the plaza were-shops-and stores, the most imposing in Lima, where everythin could be purchased from American shoes and shirts to antiquarian silver work made by Peruvian artisans three centuries ago. On the other side lies the palace of the government. This is most interesting and very attractive, with patios within, whose singing birds and luxuriant verdure delight the eye and ear.

Inside and out, master craftsmen in wood and stone grill and embossed work, toiled for many years, and the nature of the work can hardly be duplicated at the present day. A friend of mine, former Minister of Justice,-who had his law office in this building, told me that he had planned to build an extra room on the ground floor which would be in keeping with his suite in the original building. The room itself would have cost only about a thousand dollars to add, but to duplicate the carving and intaglio such as the other, older rooms, would have cost him well over twenty thousand dollars: Needless to say, the room was never built. Lima as it was thirty years ago and as it is now, has been so often described by better writers that it is not in the province of this-‘narrative to gild the lily. It is sufficient to say that it always has been one of the nost interesting and historic cities in the Latin republics. During our stay, we accomplished two things of ee we managed to convey toa Peruvian carpenter Ithe idea of how an Oroville rocker for sampling should ‘be built; and we hired a cook:for the expedition. His name was John, and he was a Savannah born negro of some thirty years. A wanderer and adventurer by habit, a braggart by nature, and a four way liar met to us throughout the entire trip. He claimed at the time we hired him to have recently crossed the wildest part of the Andes by way of a trip from Manaos, in ‘Brazil, to Tiripata, in Peru. His harrowing description lof the trip was most exciting, but later on, he had
such_a wonderful series of adventures to regale us with that Chris and I started a mild check on his (Please turn to Page 5) by practice, John was a source of pleasure and amuse. . Miss Lulu Rose Ralph Borne To Final Rest GRASS VALLEY: Final rites were held Saturday afternoon for Miss Lulu Rose Ralph, 61, who died last Thursday at. her home on West Main Street. The services were at the family home with burial in Elm Ridge Cemetery. A short time ago she had completed 31 years of service in Grass Valley banking institutions. Miss Ralph is survived by a sister, Mrs. Ferdinand Schwartz of this city. She was a daughter of the late Samuel C. and Elizabeth Ralph. She had _ attended local schools and graduated from Armstrong’s Business College. od CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH “Soul and Body is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon to be read in Christian Science churches on Sunday, November 21.
