La Fiesta del cinco de Mayo in Full
 Blast on the Mexican Side.

These are the days when the Mex ican horse losses his head and paws the ground in his eagerness for the race; the Mexican rooster crows lustily, flaps his wings, spreads his tail feathers and challenges all corners to mortal combat; and be- tween races and during races, be- tween fights and during fights, the gambler of both sexes and various nationalities, and games even more numerous, challenges young and old to tests of luck.
 In the vicinity of the Jig theater in Nogales, Sonora, veritable city of tents has sprung up within few days If there is anything you want that you can't find there, it must be because you want too much.
 You can get any kind of game you want and if you lose your money you will be permitted to return to your home if you do SO quietly. If you win a bag or a roll, you can step into the restaurant next daor and dine. If you have any money left when you get out of the restaurant you can blow 1t in the lrlrroom next door. You can get soft drinks or ice cream next door. Next door you can get sandwich or whole Dutch lunch and then step next door and have cigar, and a chair to sit on while you think it over. Anything you may want that Is not in the tent where you happen to be, you can get in the next tent.
 Then you can step into the street and while strolling up and down through the surging crowd, rub Der" to your hearts content.
 You can see hundreds of hand- some seforas and sweet-faced se- fioritas and some who show the effects of other days observed not wisely but strenuously. You can see the Mexican Beau Brummel in all his glory and. pumping elbows with him, the Weary Walker of the same sunny cline. And of course the children are there.
 They are all there, and their American friends from this side of the line are there, too.
 And for the next two weeks the caballos will continue to paw the earth in their eagerness for the race; the gallos will continue to flap their wings, spread their tail feathers and crow for fight; the lugadors and iugadoras will con- tInue to cry out the a-fortune opportunities of their many games.

Fire Does Much Damage.

Fire broke out tonight at S:30 o'clock in the general merchandise store of R. H. Crews, at the corner of Nineteenth street and Avenue r, and resulted in the total loss of the stock of goods, valued at 5000, and the gutting of the large two-story building, valued at $250O The losses were only partially covered by insurance.
 So fercely did the blaze burn that it was only by hard work that the home of Mayor N. ". Scott and the stables of Smiley Sons x Go. were saved.
 The fire is supposed to have caught in the lower floor of the store, and it seemed that it had been burning some time be- fore being discovered and had gained considerable headway before the alarm was turned in at the fire department.
 The family that occupied the second floor of the building experienced some little trouble in escaping without injury.
 As MT. Crews, the proprietor of the merchandise company, is in Goodwater, it Is not know just what his loss amount ed to-
 For a time 1t looked as if the stables across the street were doomcd and Man ager Jordan promtply had all of his horses and articles removed from the building.
 Mayor Scott's home, which stands near the burned building, was badly scorched in places, but little damage of any con sequence was done to the house.
