which added much to the festivity of
the glorious occasion.
It is rumored that the ambitious Les
lie Emshaw, governor of the Iowa
tribes, who is here with a great follow
ing, views with little satisfaction the
pretentions of Teddicus to the succes
sion, and that he is intriguing with
Hacna, PJatt and other eminent chaps
with the view to setting aside the claims
of Teddicus at the conclusion of this
reign, giving the crown to Leslie I.'
The great events of the coronation will
occur this evening in the Circus Mazi
dob . Two hundred captive Filipinos,
with their wives and children, will be
auctioned off to help pay the expenses
of the campaign. After the auction
Sparticus Pettigrew will be lowered
into the den containing the fierce
Numdia, Colo., lions which Teddicus
drove through the streets today. Sparty
will have nothing to defend himBelf ex.
cept his mouth, which his admirers ex
pect will be effective. Then $17,000,000
worth of fireworks will be turned looee
from the' csp'.tol steps. Sioux City

PRIMITIVE MAIL-BAGS .
Mexican Runners Who could keep up
with a Horse.
During the first few years of my stay
in Mexico, before we had built roads,
runners brought all my mail and cor
respondence ftequently from the Cape,
distant .nearly.two hundred miles. They
carried it in a handkerchief tied around
their loins. They were absolutely re
liable. I never knew them to fail. Even
after roads were built and teams run
ning regularly upon them, the runners
were frequently employed. Once it was
my good .fortune to overtake the most
celebrated of them. I was in a light
buggy which I had had built especially
to enable me to take rapid journeys to
the capital, distant about forty-five
miles on .the old road. 1 had a noble
span of horses seventeen and a half
hands, which the natives called "Ios ele
fantes." It was a down-grade traveling
north, the road in the foot-hills excel
lent. On nearing the coaet it became
sandy and heavy. I was driving at a
fine, easy gait, when I saw a man some
distance ahead throning a ball, appar
ently, which he would overtake and
throw again and again. I quickened my
pace, but the runner also spurted, and
thus we traveled for nearly an hour,
when 1 overtook him. I then discover
ed that be threw the ball with his foot,
without pausing or Btooping. He was
returning from the delivery of mail, and
varied the monotony of ..the journey in
that manner. He kept pace with me
with ease, and when we reached the
heavier portions of the road passed me.
1 afterward learned that the ball was of
wood, and that it is a favorite practice
of the runners. Henry S. Brooks in
