Life and Business in Capital of Mexico!
(Cop righted by Krank O. Carpenter)
EXJCO CITY The revolution
has been going on hero ta
oer two years, but ns far
an any "shooting up the
town" Is concerned, this
Mexican capital has been as
quiet as In Glasgow on Sunday. This
Is so only from a military standpoint
In other respects. Mexico Is one of the
Hvelkst and busiest cltlos on the faco
o" the earth.
When I started across the boundary I
was warned that T took my llfo In my
1-anX nnd that I would always be In
d.mg r of the Mexican bullets. I re
plied that I would at nny ratn escape the
American automobile and that all the
bullets of Mexico could not equal the
danger of crossing the street In New
Ycrlc or Chicago. I find that 1 have
Jm;rd out of the frying pan Into
the fire Mexico Ity swarms with auto
mobiles and they go ut such speed thnt
the would be hold Up on nny countr
road In the I'nltcd .Slates. Hern no speed
1 m'.t whatever Is observed, and even ttu
tatlcabs race each other on the rhti.'
business streets. l.lmouslni-s go at flftv
mile un hour over the asphalt of the
l'aseo do la Ileforma. and In the Avenldn
do t'nn Francisco, thn Broadway nntl
Fifth s.vemio of this town, the motor
cars fairly bump ench other as thoy
fly this way and that The samo Is
true of all kinds of traffic. The motor
drays make thirty miles an hour and
thoro are hundreds of motorcycles, which
Si so fast that their wheels seem solid
disks I have never seen anything Ilk
It, and my heartbeats, as I have tried
to keep out of the way, have worn my
throat to a frazzle.
Tint Drnil Yet.
I had expected to find Mexico City a
"deader" I thought the revolution would
have squeezed tho llfo out of business,
nnd that the people and prices would be
cn tho down grade. I tint It quite the re
crre The troubles which have been
Kolrvr on over tho country have scared
the Tlch hnclcndados Into renting or buy
ing property In tho capital nnd they have
come hero until conditions are stable.
They am good tnonoy spenders, and the
opera house Is now filled every night I
find tho greets thronged with people and
the r,torcK filled with goods hearing cost
marks us high or higher than those of
the states. J find new buildings going up
on the outskirts and construction of one
kind or another on the chief business
streets. Just below tho Alameda a na
tional theater which Is to cost high Into
tfio millions Is almost completed, and on
the Plaza de la Republlcn stands tho
great steel skeleton of tho legislative

that It was chosen as tho center of the
Aztec empire and as the site of the best
of that old civilization. It Is a garden
spot, forty-five miles long and thirty
miles wide, with a half dozen silvery
lakes running through It These lakes
rite one over tho other, the level of all
of them being nbovo that upon which the
Mexican capital stands. '
Skirting tho lakes and covering the vtl
ley, and coming close to tho edge of tne
city are plains of richest green, and within
them Is tho great red and gray ex
panse of low buildings which make up
Mexico City. That vust building, off to
tho south cost over two million dollars.
It Is tho now penitentiary, nnd It Is now
the home of many a rebel, Including Gen
eral Hernurdo Itcycs.
Off on thu opposite aide of tho city we
can see Chapultopcc, where Is now tho
White House of Mexico, tho home cf
President Madeio. It Is there that Monte
zuma hod his summer residence, and
there President Diaz lived. That wnla
avenuo shaded with trees and decorated
with magnificent statues which leads to
It Is the Pastto de la Itcformu, and the
magnificent buildings about are the Co
Ionian. They cover somo thousands of
acres, and form tho new sections of tho
capital which were planned by Americans
llullt nn n Hvranip.
I say, if It Is ever completed. The build
ing promises to bo too heavy for Its
foundation, and It Is slowly sinking Into
the great bed of ooze upon which this
city stands. The same Is true of the Na
tional theater, the new postofflce and of
other great buildings, which are slowly
and gradually going down Into the ooze.
Within tho last few years a drainage sys
tem has been Introduced, hut this has
taken off the subsoil water, which aided
In upholding the principal buildings, and
thoy are now said to be more stable dur
ing tit rainy season when the ground Is
well soaked.
Tho Mexico of today Is founded on the
site or the ancient capital of the Mon
tezuma, nnd I am told that there has
been a city right here since 100 years
before Columbus discovered Atn.rlr. I
The capital of Montezuma was a town
of Islands and mainland cut up by canals,
It had hundreds of bridges, and Its 120,000
houses, made of red porous stone, skirted
tho cunulfi nnd had cement sidewalks,
lining tho waterways. Just as hns tho
Venice of today.
After tho conquest, when the Spaniards
built their capital, .they did not go to the I ored with bricks laid In Hme mortar,
The Mexican House Tops.
Now take your glass and look at tio
great checkerboard of Mexico City. Tho
most of the streets cross each other at
right angles, and the wholo seems to be
divided up Into square fields paved with
brick. That Is how the capital looks from
tho sky.
Tho roofs of all the houses below us are
flat. There Is not a chimney In tho whole
city, and you can number the furnaces
on your fingers and toes. These peopUi
do ull their heating and cooking with
oharcoal. and a hot-wuter plant would be
as great a wonder here ns"tho Slnnicso
twins or a. five-legged calf. Ndw look a
little closer at the great expanse of brick
fields which make up the houses. Each
house has a hole In Its center. That 'is
tho patio or court around which the
rooms run. This often constitutes the
garden of tho family, nnd wo can seo
trees rising hero and there over the roofs.
Tho tops of tho buildings aro almost
level, save where a public office hero and
there rises higher or where tho many
churches with their spires and towers
stand In evidence of tho days when this
bind was ruled by priests. Their roofs,
like those of all of tho buildings, are cov-

formed the Azteo metropolis. The only
difference Is that they have filled up the
canals and drained a large part of the
lakes, and they have now buildings cov
ering a space which Is many times larger
than trtat of the ancient city. The M6x
ico City of the present covers about
twonty square miles. It has a population
of more than 600,000, and Including Its
outskirts, or the federal district, It Is
tnore than twice the size of the city of
Wnshlngon.

and
there Is almost as much masonry on tho
top of a house ns them Is In Its walls.
MexIco'M Ill Cathedral.
Take this mighty cathedral on which
wo are standing. It Is the largest on thn
North American continent, and Its roof
covers acres. It Is paved with bricks,
containing enough, I venture, to form
the roadways for u town of 10,000 people.
This building cost millions, and the tower
upon which wo arc standing alone cos:
100,OCO or more. Its choir has a balus
trade formed of an alloy of silver, copper
and gold, which weighs almost three.
At the same time the people raise their
hats and cry "Viva! Viva! Madera!"
Tho automobile opens and a little man
with a flat face covered with a brown
beard takes off his hat and salutes aa he
goes Into the building.
We cross tho plaza and go Up the Ave
nida de San Francisco. The sun has now
set and the electric lights lmve sprung
out. The street blazes with the arc
lamps, which, fastened to posts about fif
teen feet high, run through it from one
end to the other. The lights aro so ar
ranged that each cluster of five Is not
more than twenty-flvo .feet distant from
that on tho opposite side of the way. Tho
windows of ho shops aro also illuminated
nnd the asphalt shines like polished kI.jcb
under tho electric rays.
Now stop a moment and notice tho peo
ple. There aro representatives hero from
all over Europe Qermuns, Frenchmen.
Engllsmcn and Spaniards, and alno many
Americans. We see our good In tho
Htores, and hear tho English languuge
often spoken as wo walk through the
streets. There are many rich Mexicans,
nnd somo of them come In from the coun
try with the costumo of the old linden
dado, consisting of an immenso eombroro
loaded with sliver and a stilt of rich
cloth decorated with numerous buttons
and braid, There are many peon men
wcurlug blankets over their shoulders and
Indian " women with black rebosas
wrapped round their heuds. There aro
also girls of tho well-to-do clause, clad
In black with black shawls round their
heads, and others wearing high-heeled
shoes and Paris lints like thoso of our
women ut home. Most of the women
havo powder and paint upon their dark
faces, but not more, I venture, than" voti
can sco any day on thn girls who walk
up and down tho great whlto way in
New York. i
When I was In Mexico City twenty
years ngo the new part )f the cupltal
lying on both sides of the Pnseo de la
IJefortna iiad Jl'f,t bftjui to be. The city
was then only limf the pUb It, Is now.
nnd the greater pait of this region was
covered with swur.ips. Its possibilities
were seen by American capitalists, nnl
they organtzM a syndicate named the
Anirlcun Colony company and b 'Ught
huge tracts of land, which they laid out
In lots. They drained off the water mid
put In paveu-ents and sewets. They also
bv-llt modern" houses costing all tho Way
from $25,000 to J100.000 apiece and sold
thorn on time. Tho Investment was ex
ceedingly profitable, and I am told that
they made something like 100 j;r cent
dividends on Uout'K000,000.
This first district was known na the
colonial, ftnd now we have a half dozen
different colonlas which havo sprung up
In that region. One Is the Colonia Homa,
which named Its streets after tho cities
of Mexico, nnd which represented a cap
ital of . about $4,000,000, furnished by
Americans. Another colonia was Jaid
out by a Kansas City man, and others
by Mexican capitalists.
All of theso enterprises paid well, and
today these colonlas form tho finest parts
of tho Slexlcan capital. They extend all
the way from tho Alameda or a llttlo
beyond It to Chaputtepec, and they have
covered a large part of the ground to
the north and south of tho Pasco de la
Iteforma.
Tho streets of ono colony arc named
after foreign cities, and you can walk
through Vienna, Liverpool, Berlin or
London. Another hus streets named
after famous Mexican statesmen, and
another, near tho Plaza de Toros, might
bo called the colony of doctors, for every
street bears a name with a Dr. before It.
It Is here In this colony section that
our amDassador lives, the American flag
flying over his mansion of stone.

The Water board has gotten out a now

which is to save one' cent postage at the
expense ot disclosing the amount of the
bill to whoever handles or sees the card.
Incidentally, the new card Informs the
consumer further that no receipt will bo
forthcoming unless lie encloses an addi
tional two-cent stamp for postage.
No other merchant or public service
corporation has bcon able to get aown

In the Western Laborer, F. A. Kennedy
has this to say about it:
"Of all the rotten deals exposed In
Omaha, the rebating of water bills by
the water company uncovered by The
Bee Is the worst on record. If the water
board authorized this action on the part
of Its clerks then the board. should re

whole mess shopld be turned Into a dog
fight- It is almost unbelievable that the
rten who make up the water board would
countenance such an outrageous policy."
