It is the center of an important mining district and is the headquar-
 ters of the large plant of the Ameri can Smelling and Refining O. There
 are big railway works at that place and the agricultural interests of the
 state rank next to those of Vera Cruz i'll importance. Fruit growing is one of the. chief industries and the climate that constantly prevails is generally
 regarded as the most perfect to be found in the world. "Aguas" in Span means hot; and the name of the place. like the several "hot springs" ir | the United States was evidently choser because of the existence there of the wonderful hot springs that are wei
 known and highly regarded all ovel i the republic.

There ar 1 several electric street car lines an 1 good roads both within and withou ] the city limits.
