There is much interest aroused in the United States over the announced lecture tour of President Porfirio Diaz, of Mexico, who is to visit all our principal cities, lec- turing upon Mexico's laws, customs and history.
 Diaz is looked upon as Mexico's ablest president. He was born in Oaxaca Sept. 15, 1880. At reaching manhood he studied law, and took part in the war of 1S47 He afterward fought in the French war of 1S62 in which he was taken prisoner and sent to prison in France, from where he escaped.
 In 1871 he headed the Mexican rebellion, overthrow the Mexican government, and was made president in 1876, position he has held ever since by re-elections. Even his political enemies concede that he has done great deal for Mexico, and has es- tablished many good customs there which were not in vogue before his day.
 Tn appearance the president is a dis tinguished-looking man, rather reminding
