Three P~ecuIiarities

Hoods sarsaparilla, the great blood purifier
and regulating medicine, is characterized by
three peculiarities, namely:
Idaho semi-weekly world. [volume] (Idaho City, Idaho Territory) 1875-1908, 1888-08-21
IN YUCATAN'S CAPITAL.
The Streets, Churches and Converts of
the City of Merida.


The streets of Merida cross each other
at right angles, and eight of them lead
out of the Plaza Mayor-two in the
direction of each cardinal point. In
every street, at the distance of few
squares from the center, stands an
ancient gateway. arched high above the
pavement. and just beyond are the bar
rios, or suburbs. Not long ago the now
dismantled niche over each great gate
way held its Christ or saint or Virgin,
before which people were always kneel-
ing and crossing themselves Formerly
all the streets were distinguished. in
manner peculiar to Yucatan. by images
of birds or beasts set up at the corners.
and many still retain the ancient sign.
For example, the street upon which we
are living is called La Gale del Flam-
lingo, because of huge red famingo
painted on the corner house. Another
is known as the street of the Elephant,
and the representation of il is an ex-
aggerated animal, with curved trunk
and body big as barrel. There is the
street of the Old Woman. and on its
corner is the caricature of an aged fe-
male, with huge spectacles astride her
nose. The street of the Two Faces has
a double-faced human head. and there
are others equally striking. The reason
for this kindergarten sort of nemen-
clature was because when the streets
were named the great mass of inhab-
itants were Indians who could not read,
and therefore printed signs would have
been of no use to them, but the picture
of bull, a hamingo or an elephant
they could not mistake.
AS in all Spanish-American cities,
Merida's distinguishing feature is its
churches The great cathedral, erected
in 1867, is of quaint and attractive
architecture; and besides there is the
church of the Jesuits, the church and
convent of San Cristobal. the church
and convent of Mejorada, the church
of Santa Lucia and the Virgin. the
chapel of San Juan Baptista and of
Our Lady of Candelaria. the convent
de las Monjas. and others too numerous
too mention. Though now impover-
ished. and some of them in decay, a
number of them still retain enough rich
ornaments and vestments to furnish
suggestions of former grandeur. Since
the expulsion of the Jesuits, nearly a
quarter of century ago, all religious
professions have been prohibited on
the streets, much church property has
changed ownership and even the
names of streets and places have been
altered to suit the present sentiment.
Thus one of the pleasantest squares,
formerly known as the Plaza de Jesus,
i, now called Plaza Hidalgo. In the
old days this park had an exceedingly
quaint and beautiful center. which, sad
to say, has been replaced by an ordin-
airy statue of the hero whose name il
bears. Fannie B. Ward. in Troy Times.
