Osborne q Cleveland, is here making a
fortune for himself, and expects to go to
California and start paper as coon as
he has made his stack.
We also met Mrs. James Gunner,
whose many friends will be pleased to
learn that her health is very much inn
proved. She may return to Los Angeles
next year, as soon as Guy, her son, fin
ishes his course in the schools there.
Returning to our subject allow me
few words more and l will close this
already long effusion. The progress of
Mexico is wonderful and can be seen on
every hand. This progress, / am in
formed by those who know, dates from
the entry of Porfireo Diaz to the presi-
dency of the republic. Railroads have
been built in every direction and the
work still continues. Within one or
two years three lines OF railroad will
connect the Gulf of Mexico with the
Pacific ocean.
The school system is progressing but
slowly, but will in time be success.
1t will probably remain for the Amer
ican syndicates to buy up large hacien-
das and subdivide and sell them to the
small capitalists and those who will
plant and grow fruits, coffee, cotton,
bananas, etc.

Antiquity of Slot Devices.

thousand years or SO ago. Ii was in
vented by priest, and dispensed holy
water automatically. A coin dropped
through the hole tilted the nicely ball
anced lever and a spoonful of the
liquid ran out into the palm of the
hand. The slot idea Is as old as the
Christian era.
But what has puzzled inventors has
been such an application of it rs could
not be beaten by bad boys. The
earlier slot machines could be worked
by buttons. by iron washers. by. coins
with strings attached. and by iron rods
In one way and another the contents
were pumped out and the owner OF the

the richer. About four years ago the
inventors, by zigzag tubes or by care
ful adjustment of weight, or by some
other contrivance. succeeded in get
ting slot machines which could not be
deceived by youthful ingenuity.
Since then applications have poured
in. Principal Examiner Aughinbagh
SAYS that the patents on slot machines
now number in the hundreds. There
are seven different patents for slot
machines for taking photographs. In
England a~patent has been granted
for Il machine which automatically
