 Mexican Herald: Moroleon in the state of Guanajuato, is to have public library, which it is pro- posed to open, September Is. The ieie poIitico of that town, Limo Matamoros, has sent out circular letter to newspapers, periodicals and we'll known people throughout Mexico soliciting contributions of periodicals and books for the libra.

In this letter he expresses his desire to see iliteraey soon wiped out of the district over which he has jurisdiction, and the public reading room and library which will soon be inaugurated is offered as one of the means toward this end.
 Chihuahua Enterprise: I h e Americans in Mexico are under taking to present to Mexico 100,- 900 peso statue of Peace, something very appropriate on this Centen- nial year of Mexican Independence. Not few Americans wanted to make this memorial gift of Ameri- cans in Mexico a statue of Wash ington and are a little hyper critical about it. The statue of Peace is good enough for any coun- try. If we had our way about it we would have suggested offering a statue of Lincoln for we firmly be- lieve that that greatest of all Americans is admired more by Mexicans that any man who ever lived next to their own JuaTeZ.

 Mexican Herald: Arrangements are being made by the local repre- sentatives of the Toyo Risen Kai- sha, for an elaborate excursion from Mexico to Japan in October. It is hoped by the officials of the company that the Japanese exposi- tion which will be held during the centennial at the Crystal Palace, will create a greater interest here in the products and general articles of Japanese manufacture, and in response to inquiries from promin ent official and merchants, it has been arranged 10 use the II ,000 ton steamer Hong Kong Maru for the purpose of conveying the party from Mexico and return. Consider able interest has been evinced in the undertaking, and aside from the official prominence given, an enjoyable voyage is anticipated, as upon arrival of the party in Japan, especial feasts have been arranged by the government officials, local chambers of commerce and individ- uals.
 Mexico Record: Three million aires of the state of Washington, U. s. A., have begun the building of a railroad from Acapulco 120 miles northward along the Pacific coast of Mexico to Sihuatanejo, an. other port, The promoters are Merits Thomsen, owner of flour mills at Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane and in China; William D. Hofus, steel and iron manufacturer of Seattle and known as the Carnegie of the Northwest, and Robert 5. Spencer of the National Bank of Commerce in Seattle. Not much has been said about the Acapulco enterprise, but the railroad as de. signed and as now being built, will be one of the most notable pieces of engineering on the western coast. One of the chief purposes of build ing the railroad will be the open ing up of 175,000 acres of banana plantation lands which the com pany has already begun to culti- vate, large quantities of plants from Honduras and other countries having already been imported into Mexico and forwarded to the land.

MERCIFUL CAESAR.
A Story of the Great Roman and
 Band of Pirates.

A Story of the Great Roman and
 Band of Pirates.
 Caesar travelled with the retinue of man of rank, and on his way to Rhodes he fell in with an adventure which may be something more than legend. When he was crossing the Aegean, his vessel is said to have been taken by pirates. They carried him to Pharmacusa. an island off the Ca rian coast, which was then in their possession, and there he was detained for six weeks with three of his attend ants. while the rest of his servants were sent to the nearest Roman sta- tion to raise his ransom.
 The pirates treated him with polite ness. He joined in their sports. played games with them, looked into their habits and amused himself with them as we'll as he could, frankly telling them at the same time that they would be hanged.
 The xansom, very large one, about f10,000, was brought and paid, Caesar was set upon the mainland. near Mi letus. where, without moments delay, he collected some armed vessels, returned to the island, seized the whole crew while they were dividing their plunder and took them away to Pergamus, the seat of government in the Asiatic province, where they were convicted and crucifed. Clemency was not a Roman characteristic. It was therefore noted with some surprise that Caesar interceded to mitigate the severity of the punishment. The poor wretches were strangled before they were stretched on the crosses and were spared the prolongation of their torture.-James Anthony Froude.

THE STEEPLE JACK,
He Must Conquer Many Difficulties iN
 His Dangerous Work.

He Must Conquer Many Difficulties EH
 His Dangerous Work.
 The successful steeple jack must possess determination. perseverance and ingenuity. He must solve many a practical problem in hoisting great bodies aloft. He must know how to fasten a hook over the summit of a skyscraping chimney. He must have the nerve to paint steeple that sways like a pendulum at the slender top. He must be able to tear down. build up. many another task that would be difficult enough on the solid earth
 There are many ways of getting up on steeple. and when all others fail the man will tie rope around it and then, with coil on his back, walk round and round it until the entire steeple is covered with rope. and in it fully 300 times.
 But a steeple is not the most diff cult height to climb. Straight, tall chimneys are the hardest of all. There a man has to work with might and main to lift himself inch by inch from the ground to the top. Sometimes the top is 300 feet high. When it is reach ed hook is placed over the edge, pulley is made fast, the swinging chair is hauled up and work begins.
 When the chair is near the top it Is easier to work, because the ropes are short, but when they lengthen as the ground is approached there is ten dency to swing, and the wind gives impetus.
 The steeple jacks safety depends upon the hook, and until he has raised himself almost to the top it is impos- sibe for him to see whether or not the hook has been properly adjusted. More than once a steeple climber has seen when within ten feet of the top that corrosion of the iron and the col lection of soot have so thickened the wall that the hook is merely balancing on the top, so that the slightest pull in the wrong direction would drag it off. Again. the bricks are often loose at the top, and the hook is likely to tear them away.
 One of the natural difficulties to con- quer is the swaying of all high stee pies and chimneys. In a gale a steeple point will sway foot and half. Usually it sways from seven to nine inches. Painting it means reaching for spot on the right side, and find ing it on the left, and. when making dive for it on the. left, to see 1t sway back to the right Yet in spite of the constant danger born steeple jack ex- ults in his work and is at home, like the ironworker on the skyscraper. only when high above the world. He can stand triumphantly at any height. if he can have two and one-half square inches to bear his weight.-Harper's Weekly.
