Bisbee daily review., 1919-08-10

It is named after Benito Pablo Juarez, one of the Mexican presidents, man born in 1896 and of Indian percentage. He was educated by a wealthy Mexi- can and studied law. Mexico was in its usual state of revolution and he became enmeshed in 1t and finally its president for a time. He lived in Juarez several years and the house in which he lived Is still pointed very fine monument erected in his memory which is really worth a trip from Fl Paso to see. History tells us that JuareZ was a man of unusual at tainments for one of his birth. He was absolutely fearless of danger and was usually sincere in his reforms.
 The town is truly Mexican and once across the bridge one might as well be n the heart of Mexico from the ap- pearance of the people and the old adobe houses. Of course, there is a plaza and a market place for they exist in every Mexican town. The market place Is a poor excuse of a sales place for l-smelling "jerked beef" (fresh beef hung out to dry in the sun), fruits, chickens and eggs The chickens are usually sold alive and the method of killing them would drive a member of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals into mysteries. The market never seems very lively for the people have little money and many of the peons live on

also cultivated and many Mexicans have become wealthy through its manufacture. Its cultivation requires rich soil and as soon as the old plant withers young sprouts spring up from the root upon which large leaves ap- pear. The haryesters bore through the central stem of the plant and gej rom ten to fifteen pints from each plant. It is then mixed with a sort of leaven and becomes sweet to the taste. It is drank by the peons, and although 1t seems to be a cultivated taste many United States visitors are devotees of the Juarez "cantinas'
 Sketch of the Town
 The city itself is a town of the State Of Chihuahua and is fertile for stock raising an, fruit, cultivation when it has time between Villas raids. It's population in normal times is about 1000 persons. but very much smaller during the shooting up season when the natives, as far as possible, emi- grate 10 the United States and find refuge in the Mexican quarter of Fl Paso.
 Juarez has poor sanitary conditions. but these are helped by the fact that fl lies $500 feet above the sen level

of soldiers were ready for an emer- gency. The United States did not want war with Mexico, in fact. it has never wanted a war and has been forced into 1t when the behavior of other nations has reached a point where our country could only maintin its honor by taking up arms and many people believe that Mexico will never be finally settled until the United States soldiers cross the Rio Grande and make the natives understand that America can stand no more.
 From time to time the Juarez diff faculties clear up and Fl Paso once more settles down to business, but with an idea that the real fight will come some time and is merely being put off.
 Juarez is well-known to Americans and is frequently called one of the show places of Fl Paso. It lies just across the "silvery" Rio Grande. a dirty, muddy stream and is connected by an international bridge. It gives employment to a number of men of both nations, known as Custom Off, cers." but those who have made ire quent crossings between the cities know that 1t Is about as valueIess an office as can be made and the town serves as a great sporting" place for Americans.
 As Mexico Is one of the wettest places in the world our prohibition will probably make it more popular and tn 'cantinas" will have to be enlarged and our sports will even take to 'pulque" drinking. a vile intoxicating liquor made from the maguey plant II is said that one or two drinks of this will make a man fight with him self and those who have seen men under the influence at the "Cantinas" n Jaurez can readily believe this Is true. It is on sale In Juarez and Is known to the Mexican peon as honey water and while it grows wild 1t is

KOOB TO MEET
 LUNDY HERE IN , BOUTS AUG. 22

Important changes in the card for the Loughrey-Chambers fight at the Warren ball grounds Aug. 22 were an nounced yesterday by the Warren District Athletic club which will add considerable class to the preliminar- ies before the main bout. In place of Queno and Lundy, one of the six round curtain raisers will be between Koob and Lundy.
 Koob surprised the fans" at the Douglas fights a week ago when he pulled remarkable come back. " After being knocked down and taking the count he managed to get to his feet before the gong rang and in the last round won from his Indian op- ponent by knockout. Koob and Lundy, both willing boys, should show the local enthusiasts a whirl- wind scrap.
 A six-round bout also has been ar ranged between Johnny Hughes and Vaughn. while the other six-round preliminary will be between Johnny Meyers and Dusty" Rhodes. Jack Mcdonald of Fl Paso will referee.

pretty soon comes to the conclusion that any nation whose national sport Is the inhuman torture of animals can- not amount to much as a nation. There is perhaps some skill in killing the bull (who never has a chance) by striking him, at a certain vital spot. but there certainly Is no true sport in driving blindfolded old horses direct ly in front of a maddened bull and allowing them to be disemboweled while the populace applauds. As the boys are as delighted with this process as our own boys are charmed with baseball one feels that the kindness of the future generation of Mexico Is hopeless.
 Chicken Fighting
 Chicken fighting is another brutal sport in Juarez and men will go about carrying roosters to which spurs have been tied seeking matches and when one Is found there Is blood and bets, for while the chickens often fight to death the men bet every cent they have, although their families may be starving. Unfortunately betting on chicken fights is not confined to Mexi- cans. as the writer has seen many Americans in the game.
 Fine Race Track
 The great race track at Juarez Is known throughout the world and with its massive grandstand and wonderful track it is really splendid setting for this king of sports" It is conducted solely by American money and during the racing season street cars run direct from Fl Paso to the track thus doing away with the customs formalitIes.
 Some of the most famous horses in the world have made records there and the sporting fraternity and the men who really own good horses have rubbed shoulders there. Of course, the race track people stay in Bl Paso, for there Is no fit place to stay in Juarez, and go to and fro each day during the season.
 As might be expected Juarez has many gambling houses, frequented by Americans and the shooting up seems to have found its way into their blood for riots and fights are by no means uncommon in which the American sport plays a part.
 Now that John Barleycorn" has been knocked out in the United State, the next season at Juarez durinI Villas absence is-likely to be lively.
