 Purchasing agents in the States of
 Veracruz. Morelos, Nuevo Leon and Jalisco are buying entire crops and contracting for future productions.
 Mexican Herald: The citizens of Jalisco have declared their inten- tion to uphold the reputation of the state in the exhibit which will be sent to the St. Louis Louisiana Purchase exposition. The articles sent will include products of all the industries of the state.
 Mexican Herald: Applications for a charter and concession are be-
 ing drawn up for a savings bank to be established in Monterey. Ger man capitalists are behind the scheme. The new institution will be operated on the line followed by similar banks in the United States.
 Mexican Herald: Nicolas Perez Galvan, who has been named by the Pope as bishop of Chihuahua, will be consecrated at Durango about the middle of the month of April. It is expected that num- Der of bishops will assist at the cer- emony. The Seminario Conciliar will hold velada in honor of the future bishop.
 Mexican Herald: Nearly all the industrial organizations invited by the commission to take part in the regional exposition to take place at Durango, have accepted and made application for space. Many arti- sans have also signified their inten ton of placing on exhibition speci mems of their handiwork.
 Mexican Herald Messrs. Roca- bruna, Ferrer and Roure, the Cata- Ian musicians who recently arrived here, have gone to Texas on a con cert tour. These young musicians, who have played before the late Queen Victoria, the Empress Euge- nie and the Grand Duke Michael l of Russia, have won q high reputa- tion here and propose to make this city their home.
 Mexican Herald: A Mexican in- ventor, Manuel Cana, is coming to to the front. He has invented and manufactured waterproof cloth which is at once durable and light. i His latest idea is cloak for sol diers to wear when marching or on sentry duty, and when halting or in bivouac to form tents with them. So ingenious is the idea that Gen. eral Reyes, the secretary of war, has ordered an investigation by army officers whose report is satis- factory. He has submitted samples to the British military authorities and also to the United States em- bassy in this city The combina- tion seems quite practical, and some time ago the inventor secured the i respective patents.
 Mexican Herald; Several years ago beautiful Cuban girl, M &, arrived in this city, and numerous young men endeavored to win her but the victory was re- served for A. A., well known man of means with whom she went to live.

worst fire in the history of Grand

ascertain how many Indians there

which they figured would cover the
value of improvements made by many
of them on their lands in that country,

amount The agent found that there
are 610 Indians entitled to portion
of the amount, and it will be DIS
