NEW YORK, March 3,--There will
be no coal of food famine in this
city, for even freight trains are NOV
ing again on the stormbound rail-
roads. The last lost" passenger
train has been found.
On the main lines through trains
are arriving as much as twenty-four
hours late, but local traffic is close to
schedule. considering the fact that
telegraph wires are still down, ana
dispatching has to be done by tele-
phone, or not at all--or, as Is the
case OF the Lackawanna, by wireless
Through It's wireless system the
Lackawanna Railroad heard today
from its general superintendent In
Scranton that both tracks of the main

obstacle that remains in the Cape Cod

table lands Of Mexico. The plain of
Apam. not far from the City of Mex
leo, is noted for producing the best
pulque In the republic.
Acres and acres OF the huge plants
can be seen growing on the great
~haciendas. The trunk Of the plant is
a pineapple-shaped bulb with roots
widely spread out into the ground.
This bulb Is called the "corazon" or
heart, and contains within a soft veg.
etable pulp. From the outside huge
blades 10 to Is feet long radiate.
armed along their edges with sharp,
strong points. and eliminating at the
top in a longer and stronger spike.
Being a desert plant, the maguey
requires none Of the cultivation and
care hat is necessary In the cultiva-
ton of other crops. From the time of
its planting until the sap rises in its
heart little or no attention is neces-
sary. In setting out a plantation the
Mexican divides his land into Is or 20
sections. One OF these sections he
plants at one time, another at another,
until he has 20 arranged the tract
that one bunch Of magueys will ma
ture one year. the next bunch the en-
suing year and sc on, until a sort OF
continuous chain Of pulque producers
exist, giving an inexhaustible supply
year after year, and an equally inex-
haustible supply Of dinero to the own

will give forth sap until It's tenth
year. and then only upon the very v

of adulterating it begins. Water is
used sometimes. In the majority Of
cases, however, it is heavily doped
with extract of jimson weed, which
makes 1t exceedingly intoxicating. Two
glasses Of 1t will make a man roaring
drunk. And to this cause are traced
largely the degradation and misery of
the peon class.
This drugging continues despite the

Pulque is the never-failing beverage

They are men of great wealth and
