(jioocl Color* For Hou?r?. It iu not generally known?not ? von among painters- why certain tint* and colors Wfiir much butter than others on houses, unci tn? knowledge of.Just what (intK are brat to use is, therefore, rather hazy. One writer on paint, In u recent book, saya thai experiments seem to ?how that those colors which roslst or turn back the heat ray* of the iun will protect u house better than those which allow these iuys to puss through the tllrn. Thus red n> a good color because It turns back, or reflects, the red ra^s, and the red rays aie the hot rays. In general, therefore, the warm tones are good and the cold tones are poor, so far aa wear is concerned. In choosing the color of paint for 70U1 house, select reds, browns, grays and olives which, considering the various tones these tlnt? will produce, will give a wide range from which to choose. Avoid the harsh tints, such as cold yellows (like lemon),, cold greenj* (like Ki ass green, etc,), and the blues. It must be understood that no vir tue Is claimed for tints In themselvee, Irrespective of the materials used in the paint. Any color will fade, and the paint w ill scale off. if adulteieted white lead or rutuied paint, is used, but, If one is careful to use the beet white lead some well-known brand of a reliable manufacturer and gen nine linseed oil, the warm tints men tioned,above will outwear the same Materials tinted with th/? cold colors.

The whole population is sleeping on the hills, the parks or the streets. Some articles of food are very scarce. Milk costs two Chilean dol lais a liter, and it Is almost Impossi ble to obtain meat, even at high prices It is not, however, believed that a famine will occur, as thou sands of tons of (lour, wheat and rice M,ro in stores and 011 the ships. The authorities have taken charge of the distribution of food. Tffe railroads are all destroyed. Italn. which began to full Imme diately after the lirst shock, stopped an hour afterward. The nights are very cold and wlndv, and the people sleeping in the open are suffering greatly. Couriers have been dispatched both north and south for troops.. Martial law has ruled in Valparaiso since the first day of the shocks. The conformation of the whole city area has been greatly changed. The sea now washes over most or the, low lying district, which was given I over almost exclusively to business. I Most ot the wharves have disap peared. ami only the roofs of some of j the warehouses now show above the waters of the bay. The southern end ' or the encircling chain of hills seems to nave dropped many feet while rectly back of the city there are great fissures In the hillsides. Much dam age was done bv the quakes sending rocks down the hills on the city. One of these rocks fell Into one of the big public, elevators and killed six per sons The elevators were used for reaching the residence quarters on the high terraces, but all of them now are out of Commission The Ores that started after the first destructive shock detllSl all the cflorts of the lircuicn The water mains were broken, and the only source of supply was from the bay. "nl tlie peculiar formation of the city saved It from being swept < an by i,he conllagrat ion. While some terraces b?rt trails of ashes, others, both above and below, were not even scorched Hut in the lowlands the 'lames rolled almost without hin drances, and (ens of millions in prop erty were consumed. Many ghouls have been shot, but public order on the whole, has been remarkably good. One of the worst trials is the lack of light. The gas and electric light plants were both destroyed, and not a street car is in operation. The railroads, too, are blocked, and '.he only open means of comtiiutiicntIon is by the sea The overland telegraph wires are down, and the city keeps in touch with the outside world by iwo lines of cables one runnh.g south, and the other north.

The shocks continued for abouf fourteen hours, and the grent quake early on Friday morning was followed hy sev eral disastrous fl res. The firemen eventually succeeded, however, in averting a general conflagration The panic was so terrlhle during the vlliratIons that several persons, < razed with fright, flung themselves from the balconies* ??f their homes and were dashed to death in the streets below. Nearly all the churches wore destroyed The Con gress buildings;, the municipal build ings, the normal school, the courts, the Peruvian Legation, the residence of President Kiosce, the Central Mar ket, the Prefecture of Police and the National Telegraph ofllce all were se riously damaged. The wires of the tramway syBlein and the electric light plant were short-circuited and the cltv is still without car service or light. The scenes in the hospitals were distressing in the extreme. Some of the patients left their beds and fought desperately with the nurses and attendants. One woman, who had just undergone an operation for appendicitis, jumped from a fourth story window and was killed on the pavement. There were also shockiyg happenings in the prisons. All the prisoners, filled with terror, made frantic efforts to escape and some of them were shot down by the guards. The worst damage was done in the poorer districts, where hundreds of houses collapsed. Fight bodies were taken out of the ruins, making a to tal of thirty-eight since the working parties were Impressed by the police. All lines of railway to the north and the line to Talca are Interrupted. It is reported that in several places the tracks are covered by landslides. A majority of the sufferers from the disaster wore residents of the poorer sections of the city, where many small houses were thrown to tlie ground. While the fires which followed the earthquake lasted they greatly aug mented the terror of the people. Hut they were promptly put out. The lines of the electric street car system and the electric light wires were short - circuited, interrupting street car travel and plunging the city into darkness. Many slept in street cars, in car riages and in the open air in the pub lic squares and streets. There have been several return shocks of slight intensity which have kepi ihe people In alarm. The astro nomical observatory, however, has given out a statement that it does not appear to be possble that there will be a repetition of the severe shocks. The (lovernmcut has taken steps to restore quiet. An inspection of all houses left standing has been ordered and directions have been issued for the distribution of relief supplied to those in need. A traveler who came here by ex press train says that when the train was near Las Vegas, about half way between Valparaiso and Santiago, the cars were shaken violently and the engine nearly left the track. A stop was made and the terrified passen gers alighted Later they proceeded to Llaillal. which they found in al most total ruin As all telegraph atu^ telephone lines were damaged, th<5 exact sltua I tlon throughout the country is not i clear, but advices have been received that the towns of Vlrlage and Casa j blauca were entirely destroyed and that San Felipe.
