SMOKING MERRIHUANA.
It Fills Mexican Peons With 8oma
thing Like Delirium Tremens.
Water bugs anti worms are among
tbe tidbits in which the Mexican peon
delights. He catches his bugs as they
skim along the top of fresh water
ponds, drying them and then eating
them with as much zest as an Ameri
can boy eats peanuts. As near as the
peon can explain it, their flavor is
something on the order of the chest
nut, but us no white man has ever
tried eating water bugs, or if he has
doesn't dare confess it, the exact taste
of these Mexican morsels can’t be de
scribed very accurately.
The peons dote, too, on the nice,
fat pulque worm. This insect is about
two inches long and half an inch thick.
They fry the dainty In grease and
pack It in brown paper packages of
a dozen worms, which fetch 2 cents
a paper. An industrious pulque worm
collector makes a good living.
The worm Inhabits the maguey or
pulque plant, from which is distilled
tlie agtia ralel, or* honey water, of
Mexico. After twenty-four hours’ fer
mentation it Is very intoxicating. Aft
er the Mexican has primed himself
with several drinks of agua mlel and
has smoked half a dozen cigarettes
made of the dried leaf of the merri
huana weed and brown paper he is
rendy for any crime of violence.
This combination of stimulant and
narcotic has the effect of deluding the
victim Into thinking that his enemy—
and every peon has a choice collection
of enemies—Is a pygmy In stature. At
the same time it gives him an idea
that he is tremendously strong and
wonderfully brave. So he sallies forth
to make mincemeat of his enemy or
enemies and, as a rule, lands in the
local calaboose.
One of the peculiar effects of mer
rlhuana smoking is to distort the size
of all animals, making them of enor
mous size and horrible shape. The
smoker is filled with a horrible fear,
something like the horrors brought on
by delirium tremens. A kitten or a
puppy to his distorted vision appears
as some terrible creature. A common
sight In Mexico is to see a swarthy
“greaser,” armed to the teeth, flee In
terror from a small dog, while he
would fearlessly attack any man with
his knife or his machete.
A FAMOUS RACE.
Tho Greatest 3teamboat Contest on the
Mississippi River.
The greatest race ever run on the
Mississippi was between the Natchez,
a boat built in Cincinnati and com
manded by Captain T. P. Leathers,
and a New Albany boat, the Robert E.
Lee, under Captain John W. Cannon.
There was spirited rivalry between the
two vessels, and when the Natchez
made the fastest time on record be
tween New Orleans and St. Louis
(1,278 miles in 3 days 21 hours 58 min
utes) Captain Cannon resolved to beat
It. He engaged the steamer Frank
Pargoud and several fuel boats and
arranged for them to meet him at va
rious points up the river with wood
and coal. Then he had his boat cleared
of all her upper works likely to catch
the wind or make the vessel heavier.
On Thursday, June 20, 1870, at 4:45
p. m., the Robert E. Lee steamed out
of New Orleans. The Natchez follow
ed five minutes later. The race had
been advertised In advance and was
now awaited with gathering Interest
at all the river towns. Large crowds
were assembled, at Natchez, Vicksburg,
Helena and other large places.
Between Cairo and St. Louis the
Natchez afterward claimed to haVe lost
seven hoars and one minute on account
of a fog and broken machinery. The
Robert E. Lee, however, was not de
layed and arrived In St. Louis thirty
three minutes ahead of the previous
record established by her competitor.
Fifty thousand people from the house
tops, the levee and the docks of other
steamers Welcomed the winner as she
steamed into port. Captain Cannon
was the lion of the hour. The business
men gave a banquet In his honor. —
