Transportation in Mexico.

When I say 1 think the system of
tram ways, or street railroads, in tile
City of Mexico is the most perfect sys-
tenn of transportation 1 have seen in
the republjc-I probably owe the
iackass, or burro, system an apology.
This meek. long-sufferIng over-burd-
ened, unfed, and much-abused animal
is utilized on all occasions and for all
purposes. at any time of day and on
all roads leading from the country to
the city may be seen in countless npm-
bers this jack Iabbit family, with every
variety of marketing, including fruit,
milk, poultry in coops. lumber, char
coal, tied in bundles of weeds or long
grass, building stone, brick, burned
and uuburned, and, IN fact, everything
that is movable 10 piled on these for.
lorn, friendless animals and carried to
and from the country. 1t is said before
the introductions OF railroads that as
many as $1,000 were in use In and
around the City of Mexico alone. and
the same system of transportation pre-
walls throughout the republic.
The most amusing thing have seen
in the natives is the ingenuity they
display in packing these burros with
anything they want to transport.
Lumber that is too long to balance
they attach to each side of the donkey
and let one end drag on the ground,
and in that way haGl it fifty miles or
more from the mountains to the city,
or the mines, as the case may be-
There Is another class of transporta-
tion in Mexico, which should not be
overlooked, as 1t enters largely into
competition with all others, viz, that
10y which the heads and backs of men
and women are used. 1t is surprising
TO see what heavy burdens are carried
on both sexes, to and from the coun-
try, the women. generally with q pa
poose on the back. and frequently with
one or two more children a shade
larger following close behind her, and
she behind a man. who is,driving a
herd of burros, all alike loaded TO their
fullest capacity. and making slow rail-
road time. There Is another class
known as cergadoers. licensed by the
government and usually. employed in
cities. They are intrusted with hand
ling all valuable packages. moving
household goods. carrying messages.
transferring people on their backs
across tie streets that are often over
Sow \ IN the rainy season. ETC.. etc.
4 uey are, III short, Kind OF conuden-
tai transportation company, and the
only one have ever heard of in Mexico
AS there are few navigable lakes or
rivers of Importance in the interior of
Mexico, transportation by water cuts
but a little figure. of course Still the
native Indian continues to utilize what
there is. The famous Lake Tezcuco,
upon which Cortez launched his little
feet in his attack upon the City OF
Hexico in 1420. and into which the
drainage of the city is emptied, still
affords navigation for small craft not
drawing more than two feet or water
and is accessible to the city through
canals which are utilized by the In
dians for transporting passengers and
every variety of marketing, of which
they raise large quantities along the
canals and on the borders of the lake.

How PAPERS Disappear,

Yesterday morning Officer Willow was
pacing his beat on Hill street in the
neighborhood of Tenth and Eleventh
streets, when he noticed a boy named
August Hoff, busily engaged in taking
the morning papers from the various
yards. The officer arrested the boy, who
had quite bundle of papers under his
arm, and charged him with petit larceny.
The boy had ten HERALDs and few OF
the other morning papers. The people
have complained to the various news
paper Offices that they frequently missed
their papers, and the capture of this boy
explains matters. The boy was but ~
years old, and the newspaper circulators
did not press the charge against him, con-
sequently he was discharged from Gus.

A suit arising out of the fire in China
town, which occurred on the morning OF
July oath, 1887, was commenced in the
Superior Court yesterday. 1t will be re-
membered that about 2 O'Clock on the

wakened by the news that Chinatown
was ablaze, and it was only by hard work
that the Fire Department prevented a
confagration. A short time prior to this
it was stated that the insurance compa-
nies had Cancelled their policies on all
Chinatown buildings. Charley Ling in
the complaint filed yesterday states that
his property destroyed by the fire was
insured by the Anglo-Nevada Insurance
Company for $1,000 and that the com.
pany has not paid him the amount due
under the policy. He asks $4,000 and
costs of suit.

The quality of our ice is superior to nat
ural ice in purity. The water of which it is
made is taken from a deep driven well, is
first boiled, then filtered, and thus is abso-
lutely free from all impurities. 1t is frozen
evenly and solid, and will last 25 per cent
longer than natural ice. Actual tests will
always prove this, and scientific men have
long ago demonstrated and now admit il.
We are now prepared to furnish resi-
dences. and on application by postal card or
otherwise, our canvasser will visit and ar
range for delivery, 1t should be generally
taken, SO we can have paying routes. By

WHOSE HUSBAND WAS HEi
Many Chief Mourners Mt Gotham Mans
Funeral.

NEW YORK, March l6-The death of p.
+. Brennan seems to be more mysterious
than his life, judging from the numerous
ness OF his widows rs there turned up at his
funeral at the Fourteenth Regiment Ar
mory. When the Rev Mr.. Matson Gala
CHER, Chaplain of Grant Post, G. A. R., WAS
about TO begin the services, Mrs. Emmf
Brennan, with whom Mr.. Brennan lived,
entered the room and took stand in the
rear of the throng, while another woman
who called herself Mrs. Clara Brennan, and
who claims to have been married to Bren-
nan in 1875. stood near by. A third al
legged Mrs. Brennan, who says she welded
the eX-Fire Commissioner in 1880, occupied
front seat with two female friends. Mrs.
Brainard, who AYERS that she was joined in
matrlmOny to Brennan two years ago, the
fourth alleged spouse, had been present but
did not wait for the funeral service, as she
was persuaded to leave the armory a few
hours before the ceremony was begun to
avoid the possibility of scene.
When IL came for the mourncrs to take .
last look at the remains, members of the
Regiment Veteran Corps gathered around
the casket in order to keep the alleged wild
ows from creating scene. 1t is said that
three other women, who claimed the ex-
Fire Commissioner as their husband, were
also present. Everything passed over quiet
ly and the remains were then taken TO
Cypress Hill cemetery, accompanied by the
Fourteenth Regiment Veteran Corps and
Rankin and Grant Posts. G. A. X. After
the Grand Army ritual had been read. the
women, who would not relinquish their
claims as widows of the dead man, were
quietly but deciSiyely led to their carriages
and driven off. One fingered, however, and
sent for Gen. McLeer, telling the messenger
to say that lady from Chicago desired 10
see him. He answered the call and was
greeted by woman who claimed that she
had been married 10 Brennan. Her actions
were very mysterious and she said but little

reporter that her name was Schuyler, and
that she lived in this city, although a

left the armOry before the services began.

enemies. The Brooklyn police are still in
