LIMA. Peru, Feb. Elaborate
preparations have been made by the
government officials of Peru and the
citizens of Callao and Lima for the en-.
tertainment of the officers and men
of Admiral Evans fleet, which is ex-
pected to reach Callao today.
President Pardo will receive Rear
Admiral Evans and his officers the
day following their arrival He has
arranged for a banquet and grand
ball. Rear Admiral Evans and his
commanders will be takel to Croya,
a beautiful town 1876 miles from Lima.
Special trains will convey the visit
ing Americans from Callao to Lima
and all facilities will be afforded for
visiting the city and its environs.
Twelve hundred invitations have been
sent out for the great ball in honor OF
Admiral Evans and the elect OF Peru
Wan society will attend The chiefs
of police OF both Callao and Lima
have organized special squads OF
English-speakng police for the bele-
fit of the sailors.
While the state affairs given by
President Pardo and other govern
ment officials in honor OF the officers
OF the fleet will be OF a magnificent
nature, the Jacks will not be forgot
ten. There will be u bull fight. swim
ming races. and a series Of regattaa
between sculls. sailing yachts. and au.
tomobile boats.
Jack viii have no cause to complain
OF lack of recreation during his stay
here, for the Peruyians will entertain
him in a manner in keeping with the
reputation for hospitality their nation
enjoys, and so, while persons in the
United States are busy trying to keeT
warm on WaBhington's birthday, Jacl
will probably be lolling in the shade
and slipping ices and cooling drinks
and perhaps the rascal may even sc
far forget himself as to loll in tht
shade and sip those cooling drinks
with one or more OF Lima's fair daugh
ters. for more than one traveller has
agreed that the women OF Lima ar'
among the most beautiful in th'
world.
The letters home, If containing bu
small mention OF the beautiful maid
ems OF Lima, may ne gwen over large
ly TO graphic accounts of a bullfgh
which is to be one of the features at
tending the visit of the men Of thu
American fleet. To make the accoul
real bloodthirsty,' however, Jacl
may be Obliged TO draw upon his in
agination a bit for the bullfights hay
in recent years passed through sor
of denaturing process and are nov
by no means as bad as they sound.
There is much else to claim the al
tention of the American sailors In tn
course OF their stay In the capital G
Peru. such as the old cathedral da
ing back in 1910, which contains wha
