special cars, four sleepers, one din
ing car and one baggage car, over
the Mexican National railway.
After breakfast the LIGHT CORE
spOndent met them at the depot
and was at once pressed into the
service of chaperoning them to the
city, and painting out plans of in
tereSt.
AS the car passes in front of the
penitentiary, the POrfirio Diaz Ala
media, the Civil college and the
San ROble church, some of the
party expressed desire to take a
look at the interior of it, Mr.. Julio
a. Randle, who was in charge of
the cars, stopped them so as to let
them look at one of the finest piece
of stone ceiling work in the world.
From there they drove to the lara
goza plaza, where all got out, took
a walk through its shady
walks, and from there they went to
the cathedral where they spent a
few minutes inspecting its affairs,
shrines, paintings, massive col
umnS and lofty ceiling.
After they came out, they got
aboard the cars, and started for
the Topo Chico hot springs and
took bath in their healing waters.
Between the city and the springs
the road passes through fields of
corn. 1t was here for the first
time that they saw the natives
blowing with oxen and a crooked
stick. AS the day was bright and
clear, there was not a cloud in
sight, all had grand view of the
mountain scenery. And as it was
the first time that many of them
saw a mountain their joy and ad-
miratiOn of them were unbOunded.
After they had returned from
the springs they went to the cars
and took dinner. After dinner they
again got aboard the cars, went in
to the city, and from there to the
Bishops mountain and took look
at the palace, from there they visit
ed some of the gardens and back
to the city, made some purchases
of filigree SilVerWare and SOuVen-
irs and from there they went to
their cars where they spent the
night.
Sunday morning they visited the
marted, many of the private resi-
dences, the plaZas and churches,
and in the afternoon they paid a
visit to the Guggenheim smelter,
and in the morning they attended
the bull fights, and at 6 10 p. m.
they left for San Luis POtOsi and
the City of Mexico.
