THE L A


tavos for the use Of q chair by the side
Of one of the chief avenues. All day
long the people Of Mexico, rich and
poor. stylish and humble, promenade
or drive up and down these avenues,
and in no way can the visitor see SO
much of the Mexican character az to de-
vote an afternoon to this sort Of sight
seeing. Although bull fighting is not
now %patronized by the better classes as
it once was. and President Diaz did all
he could to suppress it a year or two
ago, it is still the favorite amusement
OF the common people, and every fine
Sunday the seats about the bull ring
are crowded with eager spectators, some
times as much as % q seat being paid
by those in attendance. Bull fighting in
Mexico, however, is, not what it is in
Spain. The horses used are generally
old, wornout animals, and the bulls are
frequently lean and spiritless. Some
times, when bulls cannot be got, COWS
are substituted. 1t is needless to say
that in such cases the contests are not
exciting. In fact, the COWS sometimes
run away, to the great indignation of
the spectators.
The foreign population Of the city of
Mexico is not very large, there being
more Germans perhaps than English
speaking people. OF the latter there are
about 400 or 800. but they manage to
support a paper printed in the English
language entitled The Two Republics.
1t is quite possible that this paper re-
ceives some financial assistance from the
government. At all events it never
criticises the administration.
President Diaz, who is not only the
chief executive, but practically all there
is OF the federal government, seems to be
very popular with the Mexicans and is
he soul Of courtesy in his intercourse
with foreigners, especially those from
the United States. He is greatly inter
ested in the coming exposition, as he is
in everything tina: seems to have a tend
ency to introduce the spirit Of progress
in the Mexican capital. He is a fine
looking man, and his wife, to whom he
seems devoted, is a comedy woman,
though now a hit stout. They are often
seen in the streets Of the city in a car
riage, the president often goes on horse.
back, and both are cheered at every ap-
pearance. The president has done all in
his power to hasten the completion OF
he great drainage works which were
begun 300 years ago, and it is hoped
that they will be finished next year.
The castle OF Chapultepec, the resi-.
dence OF President Diaz, will overlook
the exposition during its continuance.
Chapultepec is a noble edifice and has
been prominent in Mexican American
history. From its grounds the volcano

but possibly the expense Of living will
be greater.
The visitor to Mexico is apt to be sur.
prised at the high prices that are asked
for most things unless he realizes that
Mexican money is usually worth but a
little more than half as much as United
States money. A meal such as would
cost. say, IS cents in a large American
city will cost about 81. so in Mexico,
or about the same actual value. and the
dishes will be somewhat similar to
those served here, saving that potatoes
will not be furnished unless called for,
and they will be expensive, and every
thing will be very peppery and highly
redolent of garlic. The walters do not
speak English, as q rule, though occa-
sionally one is found who can utter a
few words in the Anglo Saxon tongue.
The street cars are hauled by mules.
The tracks are narrow gauge, and the
mules are generally harnessed tandem.
The cars 60 %careering through the streets
at about eight miles an hour and stop
only on the corners Open cars are little
used, but every one smokes in the cars
who wishes to. In fact, you may smoke
anywhere in Mexico, save in the cathe-
dral, and the SWEETEST daughters Of the
city are daily to be seen smoking ciga-
N~rettes in their carriages and in the public
gardens, where also the senoritas often
deiSn to refresh themselves with beer.
To most American travellers these same

expected to be, but this is somewhat due
to the large amount of paint and pow
der with which they decorate their facial
epidermis.
Street car fares are 9 c~entavos inside
the city limits and 10 centavos outside,
being about the equivalent Of 3 and 6
cents American money. Public carriages
are to be found at hack stands very con-
veniently located. The hacks are blue,
red and yellow and are all about alike,
excepting for the color and the fact
that they vary in price accordingly.
Thus it costs 100 centavos or 81 an hour
for a blue carriage, IS cents for a red
one and so ents for a yellow one If
you wish to- stand we'll in Mexico, from
q social standpoint, You should never
patronize anything but a blue carriage.
In many ways the Mexicans do things
in exactly the reverse fashion from
Americans. For instance, the men wear
their hats in the theaters and the wom-
en- take theirs of. At some theaters
each act is a little drama by itself, and
between acts collectors come around to
take pay for the next n from those
who wish to remain. The performance
rarely begins before 9 o'clock and rare
~ closes before Q o'clock in the morn
ing. The hotels do not furnish meals to
their guests, nor are any restaurants
attached to these establishments, as a
rule. At some hotels it is necessary for
the guest to furnish his own towels and
soap and a servan to care for his room.
A great feature Of Sunday in the city
Of Mexico is the music ON the Plaza,
furnished by bands composed of mu-
sicians Of exceptional ability. 1t is q
favorite way Of passing the afternoon Of
the first day in the week to pay IL cen

De la Reforma. Some 600 acres have
been set apart for the buildings and
grounds, and this area will be divided
into three portions-the Grand court,
the Mexican National court and the
Foreign court. A statue of Porfirio
Diaz, the president Of the republic. will
be erected at the entrance to the Grand
court, and in the center of the court
there will be q beautiful electrical ex-
hibit, while to the rear there will be an
electrical fountain and cascades. Differ
ent attractions will be placed at the four
corners, such as an old Mexican mining
camp, a scenic railway, a captive bal.
loon and an Indian village. Palms and
orange trees will line the walks. The
National our will be to the left, and
in it will be the Administration build
ings, buildings for each of the Mexican
states and SO OH. The Foreign court
will be to the right of the Grand court.
In the corners will be Spanish, French,
American and German restaurants and
cafes, while the center will be occupied
by something very similar to the Mid
way plaisance at Chicago. Everywhere
there will be beautiful tropical plants,
shrubbery and flowers. The grounds
will be accessible by several lines of
street cars and will also be placed in
connection with the chief railroads.
Special privileges in the way of customs
concessions to exhibitors will be made,
arrangements for cheap travel and trans
portation are being perfected, and the
Mexican government has assumed the
responsibility of diplomas and other
prizes. Machinery will be admitted free.
The buildings will be as handsome and.
imposing as can be put up in the time at
command, and they will be Of such a
substantial character as to be serviceable
after the close of the exhibition.
Among the prizes to be offered will
be several for model houses and hotels,
and every inducement to builders of
stone and iron buildings, which have
no heretofore been a feature of the City
of Mexico, will be extended, with the
idea that impressive exhibitions Of such
structures will SO a long way toward
inducing Mexican capitalists to erect
similar ones there. One of the chief
promoters Of this exhibition is Viscount
R. de Cornely, who is director general
OF the foreign department and had a
great deal TO do with the Midwinter fair
at San Francisco.
