MEXICAN FLOATING GARDENS.
They Furnish the Supply of Flowers
and VeaesabIes Fer the CAPITAL.

ana NsQeSableS Fer the Capital
Visitors 10 the City OF Mexico should
not miss taking trip to the floating
gardens. whence comes the supply of
flowers and fresh vegetables for the
city. says Il writer in LesIie's- The
Canal de In Vi-a and Nuchimilco.
where these floating gardens are
found. are unlike anything of their
Kind in the world They are well
worth seeing
Ny first visit to NUchimiIco was on
a week day We chose the automo-
bile route to the picturesque little
Mexican village. Santa Anita, on the
cana! banks. This seemed to be Il
sort of port for water craft Here
grouped together in great confusion
we found canoes. motorboats and
punts.
On either side were what in former
years We're floating gardens. Now
they have grown together. forming an
almost continuous stretch of solid
land The site OF the floating gardens
was formerly large lake.
At intervals along the canal may be
seen the former islands. now stationary
and ia<ersectea by a multiplicity of
tiny canals. along which glide Indian
canoes. Traffic is carried on entirely
by water. On every side Indians are
sculling and padding canoes and punts
filed with flower and vegetable prod
ucts on their way TO the markets in the
City of Mexico. Indian women are in
evidence also. Canoes propelled by
them are little floating lunch counters.
Some OF the brown skinned Hebes spe-
cialized by cooking tortillas and encha-
l2das. which they sold. piping hot from
the sheet iron top of Il little charcoal
stove Others offered cabrito with their
tortillaS. tortilla is-a delicious pam
cake made by grinding corn which has
been put through n process which
turns it into hoIniny- The hominy paste
is patted out into Il pancake and baked
on 4 hot sheet of iron An enchalada
is 4 tortiiia in which Il filling of chop
ped meat. highly seasoned with red
pepper and garlic. is laid and the pam
cake rolled into strip. With a Sprin-
king of ParmeSan cheese over the roll
the enchalada is ready to eat 1t is very
appetizing if one can overcome his
prejudice against the way it is made.

A UNIQUE PROCESSION

Five thousand marched in Philadel-
phia and l. GOO spectators turned out
to cheer them y ship mounted on
wagon drawn by ten horses headed the
procession. The ship was thirty feet
long, mounted two guns and had a
crew, including officers. of twenty-five
men. Pilots of the port followed, then
came shipbuilders, calkers and mast
builders. $50 in number Sailors, rope
makers and ship chambers were next,
the shipbuildiag demonstration being
so prominent because it was the lar
gest in the country at that time.
Thens in the order given came ten
master brewers. seventy-two journey
men. GOO shoemakers.. brassworkers.
coppersmiths. goldSmiths. silversmiths.
blacksrniths. etc. The brasswCrkers
carried a mounted furnace in full
blast. the coppersmiths made teaket-
ties all day for all applicants. nailers
finished and sold spikes. nails and
broad tacks in mounted shops. while
under a float pIow irons and horse
shoes We're fashioned and odd jobs
performed on demand

The O7ly Nav

An elder while baptizing converts at
4 revival meeting advanced with n
wiry. sharp eyed old chap into the
water. He asked the usual question.
whether there was any reason why the
ordinance of baptism should not be
administered. After n pause n tall.
powerful looking man who was look
ing quietly on remarked: Elder. L
don't want TO Interfere in yer business.
but / want to say that this is an old
sinner you have got hold of and that
one dip won't do him any good. You'll
have to anchor him out in deep water

How the ToiIers and Their En-

The Memorable Demonstration
of 1882.

A SIZED to define Labor day, the
"a late L. J. MEG who Is
~ credited with being its origi-
nator, made reply as follows:
Labor day. above all other festal
days, holds Il unique position in the
chronology of festivals. 1t gives cheer
TO the weary and Overiaden, it has
promise for the helpless and the weak.
it is redolent with the fragrance of
hopes 10 be fulfilled, it is the harbin
ger of a better life. fairer conditions
and more joyous times for labor.
The holiday. now legalized in every
state of the Union and in the District
of Columbia and Alaska. although set
apart for the countrys toilers the
same as Memorial day is set apart for
the veterans of the civil war. has be-
come a general holiday celebrated with
parades. sports. picnics. excursions and
other diversions.
The significant feature of the holiday
from an industrial standpoint is that it
is made the one time when no question
of local Importance, no strike, no con-
troverSy or dispute shall disturb the
minds of labor. ToilerS assemble and
either parade or hold festivals of an
other character when speakers adj
dress assembled multitudeS.

LABOR JUBILEE In 17ss

LABOR JUBILEE IN 1888
In connection with Labor day it is of
interest TO know something about the
the United States, which took place
July i. 1TSS. Five years had passed
since the Revolutionary war had end
cd Conditions commercially and in
duStrialy We're unsatisfactory, as no
general government had been estab-
liShed. England was flooding the Unit
ed States with manufactured products
of all Kinds. which had paralyzin-
effect on home industry. Trouble over
the acceptance of the constitution
brought the situation to 4 climax. Va
to accept the constitution. but by July
4. HIS. 4 sufficient number TO insure
the immediate organization of the gov
eminent had done 50.
Then labor went wild with joy. Its
enthusiasm and gladness found vent in
the first great labor parade of history
in this country on the date mentioned.
1t has been APPLY termed nm industrial
jubilee. Manufacturers and workers
joined in celebrating the birth of a
government which meant their pros
1 perity in saving them from the misfor-
tune of heavy importations which
home industry could produce.
There We're demonstrations in n num-
Der of states. but the only records of
