MEXICO CITY POLICE.
Street Lanterns That Keep Them Vigil
liant at Niqht.

Street Lanterns That Keep mem Nfgis
liant at Night.
when | visited Mexico" said an
artist, 81 found innumerable things OF
interest, but that which gained my
notice particularly was the police sys-
TEN. In the City of Mexico the police
at night are stationed at short inter
walls apart In the street Each police
man has a lantern, which is placed on
q stand in the center of the street. 1t
is his duty to remain in easy striking
distance of this lantern at all times,
so that he will be on hand in case of
an emergency.
ANY person who is able to reach
the lamp and lift it from its hook be-
fore the policeman interferes is entitled
to reward of $500. Any policeman
who loses his lantern is subject to In
slant and dishonorabe dismissal. This
is to insure constant vigilance on their
part and to require their presence at
a certain point at all times. At first l
regarded the thing as joke, and l
tried to ger possession of the police
lantern But then 1 found that / was
greatly mistaken. Not once. although
| exercised extreme caution, was l
quick enough for the policeman on
watch.
The CitS of Mexico is one of the
best policed communities in the world.
Policemen are always on hand when
one requires them, and it is virtually
impossible for desperadoes to operate
in the open."-New York Telegram.

Work of the Farmer.

The countless millions of our popula-
ton are fed and clothed by the Ameri-
can farmer. The grain waving in
golden beauty upon the great plains of
the west, the cotton drifting like sum-
mer snow upon the fields of the south,
freight the fleets of nations and loose
their sails, thread the continents with
track of steel, fill the earth with the
roar of trains and heap for trade and
commerce and useful art those stores
that make a nation great Where are
the sinews of our strength il they are
not found in our great, diversified agri-
cultural products? What victorious
hosts ever waved as joyous banners as
those that float above the tasseled
maize from the SHOWS of Maine to the
spicy groves of California? What spirit
of beauty hovers above southern fields
when feecy bolls uncover to crown
king Cotton"-Hon. Ezekiel s. Can

Representatives
