 The next was another lofty Doric arch representing Sociedad de Artesanos. in welcome to their associate Don Ramon Corral, who is member of the association.
 The Arizpe district arch, was next in order-an artistic com posite structure, standing in the front of one base a representation of the statue of General Pesquiera, on the Plaza de la Reforma in the City of Mexico. and in front of the other a similar representation of the statue of General Morales, in the same place. Above the spring of the arch was a large medallion portrait of Don Ramon himself, life size, and very life-like.
 The next arch at the intersec- ton of Gales Don Luis and Hidai- so, was erected by the municipal government of Nogales and it pre- sented a terraced superstructure, emblematic of the rise of the popu- lar idol, in whose honor 1t was reared.
 The first arch in Calle Hidalgo was a triple Moresque design, the  main arch spanning the carriage

Farther along Calle Juarez was the arch representing the Mazda lena district. Upon each side of the street stood four slender col umns surmounting lofty bases. From the capitals of the columns was pendent across the street a sweeping banner, upon which was emblazoned in golden letters an appropriate inscription.
 At farther distance in the same street the Altar district was repre- sented by a beautiful Doric arch, bearing an inscription of welcome.
 At the intersection of Calle Juarez and Don Luis stood the arch representing the Montezuma district Upon elevated bases each side of the street stood two silver columns, the plinths and capitals golden. These were surmounted by a pagoda like superstructure, maroon colored, extending over the street.
 Turning into Calle Don Luis at some little distance down that thoroughfare stood the arch of the Ures district, double column structure, tastefully decorated with national colors and flags.
 The next arch, representing the

Sahuaripa district, was the most original in conception and design, and most artistic withal. Upon one side of the street stood pyra- mid of beaten copper, about four teen feet in height, and ten feet square at the base. Upon the op- posite side of the thoroughfare was a smaller pyramid, about ten feet in height, upon two faces, of which were arranged in disk form all the implements of the miners work picks, shoyels, drills, hammers, etc, mine wheelbarrow bed. laid upon the center of the disk.

open order on each side, and thir- teen triumphal arches at intervals, graced the scene. At night they were all illuminated by scores and hundreds of electric lights, and nearly every building in the city was illuminated. 1t was a beauti- ful sight, one to be long remem- bered by every resident and wis itor.
 The arches represented the var ious districts and cities of Sonora societies, colonies, etc. The first, immediately opposite the Sonora railway station, spanning the en- trance to Calle Juarez, and repre- senting the city and district of Hermosillo, was lofty Doric arch, decorated with national ensigns and colors, bearing appropriate in- scriptions and words of welcome in great golden letters.

 Next came a pagoda arch erected by the Chinese colony in Hermo- sillo, which with it's pronounced colors, red and purple predominat ing, and it's barbaric ornamenta- tion and design, was the exposure of all eyes. It was surely very attractive work.
 The city and district of Guay mas presented the next arch, which was of Doric design artistic ally and tastefully decorated with numerous national Mexican stand ards and festoons of the national colors.
 The final arch immediately in front of the residence of Don Ra- mon, after passing under which he entered his own doorway, repre- sented his native city and district of Alamos. The side columns were decorated with mural paintings, one view of the City of Alamos, the other view of the Mayo river falls. The arch was crowned with an open bower wherein sat one of the fair daughters of Alamos, re- presenting the Genius of Mexico. The general effect was superb.
 The committee of arrangements had at the depot number of car riages to convey Don Ramon and party to his residence, and 1t was arranged that he should be es- corted by General Peinado and staff, together with the field officers of the various regiments stationed in Sonora, who had all assembled at Hermosillo to participate in doing honor to the second ex- ecutive head of their nation, and all in full uniform, superbly mounted, were at hand to form q guard of honor. But Don Ramon willed otherwise and overturned the elaborate arrangement. He elected to walk, and he proceeded along his way afoot, his brilliant military escort likewise accom- panying him. The music, and parade followed at q distance. This exhibition of democratic simplicity pleased everyone, and numerous were the praises accorded Mr Cor raj upon all sides. As he passed along the street he was greeted with enthusiastic cheers, and given a welcome that was spontaneous and hearty
 At his residence the distin- guished citizen held an informal re- ception the entire day, hundreds { or friends anu cltizenS calllng t0 see him, and receiving cordial greetings.
 At evening the city was beauti fully Illuminated. Sunday the populace made q gala day. A baseball game at he recreation grounds drew an immense crowd. At evening the distinguished citi- zen was serenaded, and here was a brilliant display of fireworks.
 Monday there was another sere- made by the school girls of the city.
 Tuesday the entertainment of the popuace was given over to the circus of Norris X Rowe, which visited the city that day.

United States.
 The recent tour through the middle and western parts of the United States of Don Ramon Cor ral, vice president-elect of the re- public of Mexico, was a triumph ant ovation from beginning to end. AtSt. Louis the distinguished visitor was the guest of the management of the Louisiana Purchase Exposi- tion, and was showered with every attention. In San Francisco he was the special guest of the gen. eral government, and was accorded reception in consonance with his exalted position, the state and mu- nicipal authorities and great conn mercial bodies uniting in the honors paid the distinguished citi- zen of our sister republic.
 At the California metropolis the party of Don Ramon was joined by our fellow townsman, Captain l.. w. Mix, who by special invitation accompanied Mir. Corral from that time until they reached Hermo- sillo. Tn his visit to the navy yard at Mare Island, to the Notifications commanding the harbor of San Francisco, in his trip upon the submarine war ship, the Grampus, and elsewhere, Don Ramon was accompanied by Captain Mix, who with his intimate knowledge of san Francisco and surroundings, was of great value to the eminent visitor. (By the way, it was as commander of Company c, Sec ond Regiment Artillery, N. C. C., that Captain Mix acquired his title, not as captain in the Mex ican militia, as enormously stated by some of the San Francisco newspapers).
 At Los Angeles Don Ramon was again the recipient of distin- guished attention, and at Tucson many of the most prominent citi- zens were at the depot to greet him during the short stay of his special at the station.
 At Nogales, Sonora, after mid night the gentleman tarried a short time while change of locomotives was being made, and gave the ball in his honor at the municipal palace a brief attention.
 At Imuris an arch of honor had been erected as a testimonial to the distinguished son of Sonora, and half the populace were at the de- pot to greet him.
 Magdalena was reached in the early dawn, and great outpour- ing of citizens was at the depot to greet the new vice president of the republic. The arches and decora- tions were very artistic.
 At Santa Ana and Carbo there were likewise gathered large as semblages, all intent upon doing honor to their distinguished com patriot. The arches and decora tions justly deserve great praise.
 His home city, Hermosillo, wal reached by the train of Don Ra mon about 10:30, Saturday morn ing of last week. The town haC put on a gala appearance ant thousands were at the depot t, greet him. The route to his home along Gales Juarez, Don Luis an' Hidalgo, was lined with troops, il
