MEXICO
Mexican Exhibits.


The government of Mexico has de-
cided to send exhibits to the exp0st.
tions at Dallas, Buffalo and ST Louis.
Those Eight Thousand Heather
Chinee
reported to the United States treasury
at Washington that he had been
informed that eight thousand China
men in Mexico were marching towards
the border with view of entering the
United States. The federal autborf-
ties of the western district of Texas
have not yet reported any such army
of invasion butt is true that bands Of
Chinsmen are making their way
towards the border. The new
treaty between China and
Mexico made several months ago
has brought many thousand into the
the land, most of whom have settled in
Sonora and the other Pacific coast
states, and it would perh aps be posi-
BILE to collect eight thousand Cinnamon
in short order. 1t is also the belief Of
the authorities til at many of the China
men in Mexico. having heard of the
trou bles in their own land are anxious
to 60 back, and that by crossing the
United States border, and getting
themselves arrested for violation of
the Chinese exclusion act, they Sc
cure free transportation to San Fran
cisco and across the Pacific to China.
So it is probable that they will flock to
the border, and already there has been
q big increase OF arrests for the viola.
ton of the exclusion act all along the
line.

count of too much confidence in mis-
knowledge of the language l have
noted down some of the instances that
have come under my notice, and others
that were related by my acquaintance
and friends A young man dining at
hotel on the island and desiring ta-
blespoon raped vigorously on the ta-
BILE and called the waiter so everyone
in the room would be sure to hear him
speak Spanish: rYo queies para un
cucaracha' (cocBroach). He should
have said: 'Cuchara.' There was
suppressed litter in the room and a
laugh that was not suppressed in the
least. The gentleman was not heard
from any more during that meal. l
heard a guest at my hotel calling to
the servant quite early one morning
from his room: Me querer (desire)
sopa; sopa, me querer sopa' (soup). l
called to him and said they did not
serve soup in the morning: He said:
don't want soup, l want SOAP l
blandly told him to call for jabon Cha

"a young gentleman made an even
ingcall on a couple of senoritas; just as
he was taking his leave there came up a
shower; hestepped back into the house
and said in Spanish it would be neces-
sary to borrow a 'unagus.' Now that
is a 'perticoat;' he should have said
umbrella. This was too
good to be kept alright, so it leaked
out. A soldier who was stationed in
one of the small towns of the island
and who had received some very kind
treatment at the hands Of Spanish
woman, said to her one day: 'Spaney
mucho malo. Sir she exclaimed, in
diguantly, what do you mean, when !

given you so many things to eat, and
now you say l am 'mucho malo" No,
no. no. he tried to explain, i mean my

languages Strengthened them out and
they were soon as good friends as ever.
A young man dining at hotel and
wanting some ice (hielo) called to the
waiter for 'hilo,' but the waiter did not
pay any attention to him. He finally
got a little excited andSpoke up loud
er and more authoritatively demand
ing 'hilo, so the waiter, TO get the
laugh on him, brought a spool of
thread and laid it by his plate What's
that for? he asked. The servant said;

present at the connubialities, as he
called them, and there was no mar
riage until we got there. Sometimes
there was a dance after the wedding, in
the public square, and the bride had
toallemande left and sashay with every
member of the volunteers before she
did with her husband.
"Then we used to have foot races on
the Fourth Of July, and whenever there
was county fair we were the ones
altogether lovely. In the winter time
when the circuit rider came to town
and got up revival we always turned
out, and IL the sinners didnt come to
taw as lively as they should we would
null straws to see who would go up as
mourners; and in that way the revival
would be prolonged. 1t was always
understood that the one thatpulled the
short straw had the privilege OF back
sliding after the season was over.
"There were no secret orders in
Touse at that time, so when a promi-
nent citizen kicked the bucket, as we
said of a man when he died, the Touse
volunteers turned out and planted him
with masonic or oddfellow donors, ac-
cording to the wishes of his friends.
There was no hearse in the town, so we
put the deceased on the engine and
hauled him to the boneyard. II his
friends wanted masonic honors over his
grave our captain would toot the trum-
pet; If 1t was oddfellow honors that
was demanded we rung the bell; and
in that way strangers in Touse always
knowed which way the deceased had
affiliated, so to speak, in his life. There
wasn't much in Touse that the volun-
teers didn't take hand in"
