heavy and there are iron or brass
cages over all the outside Window
evidences that those who built them
expected them to undergo sieges. There
are no plate glass fronts, no awnings,
no outside stairways, no anything to
separate one house from others in the
same block or to give the variety that
is so pleasing in our own cities. Indeed
it seems a. though the city must have
been built by blocks, each block being
one immense house.

There are churches and churches, of
course, something over three
hundred in all. These are larger or
smaller-generally larger-but are
similar in architecture, arrangement
and ornamentation. The chiefof them
is the Cathedral, fronting the north
side Of the main plaza. 1t is an i'm
mense structure. that was century or
more building and that cost many mill
lions of dollars. Among its treasures
are several large paintings which are
credited to Murillo and which a very
Indifferent art connoisseur thinks
may be genuine. There are some 9TH
er paintings by native artists and there
are any number of sculptured Christs
and Virgins and Saints and martyrs.
The grandest thing though about the
Cathedral are the bells. There are
scores of them, swinging from dozen
towers, and when they all ring out at
once, as they did one Sunday morning
when I happened to be on the plaza.

THE OLD PIONEER.

written by E. T. Barber of Elm township
and recited at the meeting of the Alumni Asso-
citation Of the State Normal School at EmpOria,
June Is, 1851
l sing to the praise of the Old Pioneer,
Ills hopes for the future, and also his fear;
His toll and his labor Is ended at last;
His joy and his sorrow are things of the past.
And We who have gathered from prairie and
plain,
To mingle together In friendship again;
To feel our hearts throb as we felt them of yore
And feel the warm haud-clasp OF greeting once
more,
Should oftentimes call up the past for review,
To carefully winnow the false from the true;
To weigh all our actions in scales tn at just;
To see IL our talents are furnished with rust.
For We are the heirs to princely domain,
or populous city and broad fertile plain,
A state that was born Of . glorious cause;
A nation with justice and right for its laws;
Where Peace and Prosperity hoyeri ng DER,
Shower blessings alike on the rich and the
poor.
We sing of TIE heroes of Greece, Troy and
Rome
Or battle-scarred veterans found nearer home,
We blazon their deeds in bright letters of gold;
We tell the same tale that has often been told;
OfhOw, in the thickest and deadliest strife,
Some hero has willingly offered his life:
But seldom we properly honor fear,
The life and the work of the Old Pioneer
Who fought against pestilencc famine and
drOuth,
And hot, scorching winds coming up from the
south;
Great scourges of insects and W lid beasts Of
prey,
That thwarted his labors by night and by
day;
Who lived in dugout, or cabin of sod;
His clothes In tatters, feet scantily shod,
His life filed with unceasing labor and care,
And oftsntimes cherries and rugged and bare.
He battled with nature to conquer the sod,
And make of our prairie "Garden OF GOd,''
The hero who fell In the heat OF the fight
For freedom and liberty, justice and right,
Is worthy Of glory. and honor, and fame;
All ages to come will his valor proclaim;
But his was battle against blood, flesh and
bone,
With lodgings and passions like unto his own,
And not with the dull and insensible clod,
Wind, scourges and famine, drOuth, tempest,
and sod.
The hero who battles on year after year,
With naught but hope for the future to cheer,
|s surely the equal of him who has won
His glory and fame by deed that was done
While cannon and musketry, bullet and shell,
We're screaming like flends from the region of
hell;
While torrents Of passions poured over his soul
And comrades in arms cheered him on to the
goal.
lis thus Of the Old Pioneer would sing.
Nay praise for his valor continue to ring
Nay duty, and honor, and glory and fame,
Be evermore linked with his work and his |
pame:-
For he has not patiently battled in vain;
The cities and railroads, the broad fields Of
grain,
rhe schools and the churches, that welcome us
Are due to his labor, his faith, and his plOw.

In the first place the city is European
and not American. It is European in
its architecture, European in its Ian
guage, European in its ideas and hab-
its oflife. You can hire a room at a
hotel, but you must furnish your own
soap and towels and you must go
somewhere else for your meals. Sup
pose that somewhere else to be one of
the principal restaurants of the city,
and you will find the meal-if it be
dinner-served in table d'hote style,
and the butter unsalted. You will also
find. I might add, an exceedingly ur-
palatable bill of fare, poor table service
and big price. A cup of coffee, two
eggs and bread and butter, which was
our usual morning meal, cost As cents.
Regular dinner cost 624 cents and was
much less satisfactory than those that
are served in restaurants all over Kan
sas at 25 cents. They say that the
poems in the City of Mexico live on 3
cents a day. An American finds it
hard to get along on lees than $500 a
day for his food alone. A peculiar
by-the-way, of Mexican din
ing halls, is the coffee boy" This is

Hos, about the business purposes
OF your trip2"
We went 10 join the Pacific Pine
Lumber Association, and we ac-
complished our object without the
slightest difficulty or dissatisfaction.
an article appeared in your paper last
Saturday, in your Tacoma CORES
pondenee, concerning orr mission TO
San Francisco, that both amused and
annoyed me. insomach as il was so
absurdly mistaken in its missfate-
ments as to our reasons for Joining
the association. that feel called upon
70 correct the apprehensions under
wh1cn your correspondent appears to
be iaboring. Our relations with the
Satsop Railroad Company and with
Hanson g. Co. have always been OF
the most mutually satisfactory
nature. and cannot imagine
whence any statement to the contrary
should have emanated. Assertions
were made also that we were handi-
capped in joining the association; but
the factis that no conditions whatever
were imposed upon Us We buy our
logs where We can get them the cheap
est, and we sustain Just the same re-
iations 10 other numbering companies
and to the public that we have before.
In fact" continued Mr.. Anderson,
smilingiy, I'VE are not a corporation
eormorant, but simple lusabering
and milling company that purposes 10
do business on business principles.
and 10 furnish lumber to the nubIic al
as reasonable prices as we can possibly
manufacture it.
"Onr NH has been operating about
a month. and we are now turning out
