he National Drink of the Mexicans

lCor. Boston Herald.l
The stranger in Mexico is struck by
the prevalence on the tables of bottles of
milky-looking fluid, resembling at sight
the hbsinthe and water common to the
Partisan bonlevards. 1t is, however,
winter looking than that. This is the
pulque, the national drink, which is to
Mexico what lager beer is to Germany
and tho United States. The stranger
usually begins by expressing the great
est disgust at the drink, and winds up by
becoming very fond of il in the course of
two or three weeks. I had acquired a
liking for gose, the peculiar local beer
OF Leipzig, during long stay in that
city, and as pulque resembles it very
much IN taste, though not in appearance,
l took to it at once. Both have the
same sourish, mousy and cucumber
taste, but pulque is sappy and slippery.
1t is very innocent tasting beverage.
and one would think it no more intoyi,
eating than milk, but in reality it is
fully as strong as the same quantity of
lager beer. 1t is the fayorite noonday
drink, but it will not keep until night.
For this reason it is blessing to Mex
leo, for the lower classes, who drink
nothing else, cannot carouse after night
fall, when they may become disorderly
and dangerous. -

ROYALTY AT A BAZAAR,

When the Prince of Wales was IN this
country he refused to dine in party of
which a prominent hotel-keeper and
member OF Gov. Morgan's staff was one,
and the indignant boniface was ex-
cluded. Royalty in England has long
dlsdained to associate with tradespeople,
and tie daughters of men engaged in
barter are denied presentation to the
queen. But the Princess of Wales sold
flowers Mt a bazaar in London recently.

Albany, Princess Teck and Marchioness
Tseng presided over fancy, Chinese tea
house. So insignificant a fact may indi-
cate SO great change as the abandon
ment of absurd notions as to the degra.
dation Of trade. The republican idea is
growing in the British Isles, and not
only is the early downfall of the house
of lords predicted, but hints are heard
as to the probability that the next king
of England will be the last. 1t is vel
for royalty to make concessions to a.
spirit of the age, if it hopes to perman-
iently maintain itself in England.

A Mexican Memento,

Patrick N. Nichols, of the distribut-
ing department at the Cleveland post
office, Is the possessor OF rare and
valuable relic in the shape of the limb
OF tree cut off by ball in the Mexican
war. Mr.. Nichols was at the time in
the bureau Of clothing, under Captain
Thomas King, on Zachariah Taylor's
Ene. The battle was of ,Resaca de Ia
Palma, taking place the day after that of
Palo Alto, on May 8, 1916. The place
was about six miles above Palo Alto,
and the Mexicans were under command
OF Gen. La Vega. The American forces
were shaking their thirst at the edge Of a
chaparal, when the Mexicans opened
fire. The first ball was a six-pounder
that took off the limb Of chaparaI lig-
mum vitae tree that stood in the middle
of the natural road, The limb was di-
vlded among the men near, Mr.. Nichols
getting one piece that will make, when
worked over, a asuperb cane. The wood
is black on the outside and golden with
in. Gen. La Vega was afterward taken
prisoner by the famous Charlie May, as
the general was about to touch, off one
OF his own cannons, and sent to New
Orleans. Mr.. Nichols was born in Ire
land, and went to Milwaukee in 1S49.
he says the Mexican war opened the
eyes of the rest of the world to the
worth of the United States, as her
troops at Mexico were fighters from the
word go, The Mexicans during the war
fought well when under the eyes of their
leaders, but, as put by Mr.. Nichols,
would bolt at the first good chance,

he was told that he was, on his own ac-

tent of $500. "I haven't the money

to the visitor that to sign check would

CONVICT LABOR.


> The continued reports OF buses of
convicts by contractors for their labor in
South Carolina have induced the gov.
ernment to order an investigation. The
Charleston News says: "Last winter it
was shown that the rate of mortality
among the convicts employed in the
phosphate mines averaged from 10 to 12
per cent. while numbers of them were
returned to the penitentiary more dead
than alive and suffering from incurable
diseases contracted in camp. Recently
ten convicts were returned to the peni-
tcntiary from the convict camp on the
Georgetown Railroad completely broken
down IN health; and still mora recently
the wretched condition of the convicts
employed on the Greenwood, Laurens
and Spartanburg Railroad has been
brought to light. The condition of the
convict camp on the Georgetown Rail-
road is said by the superintendent of the
penitentiary to have been horribly
filthy, and it is admitted by the contrac-
tor himself that he had no hospital ac-
commodations for the care of the sick.

The Watch Trade in France.

The Besancon chamber of commerce
In ITS annual report states that the total
number of watches made in that town
last year was only just short of 500, 900,
or nearly 10000 more than in 1881,
when the total was 44s, $50, the average
for the proceeding five years having
been 10000. The proportion OF gold
to silver watches throughout this period
has been about one OF the former to two
OF the latter, and, taking the average
value OF the gold watches at .e3 SIS. and
that of the silver watches at s1, the
chamber of commerce estimates the total
value of the goods manufactured last
year is a tritle over e90O, 900. The num-
Der Of watches imported from abroad is
diminishing every year. In 1881 there
were imported 32, 1855 gold and 60, 554
silver watches, but last year the total
had fallen to %, 21S gold and As, ,7O4 sill
-ver watches, and nearly all of these came
from Switzerland. In other words. the
total number Of watches sold in France
Inst year was 56s, 722, of which Sc per
cent. were made at Besancon.
