Very sleep grades and sharp curves add to this difficulty. Going down seems equally difficult, as brakes and wheels become so hot from the heavy friction that stops have to be made to allow them to cool. This makes progress very slow. Scenic features along this lino af ford large compensation, however. To the eastward are the famous vol cano of Popocatepetl and lis masRive companion. Ixtaccihuatl, each clothed in everlasting snow although both are well within the torrid lone. Their respective heights are 17,880 and 17,330 feet, or about three-fifths of n mile higher than any mountain In the United States aside from Alaska. Popocatepetl Is now mildly active, af ter being 1 or in an about 200 years. It Is said that sulphur from its crater was used by the followers of Cortes for making gunpowder during the conquest 400 years 8i;o. On the trip mentioned wonderful views are afforded of the valley and city of Mexico, with adjacent towns, lakes and seml-trophlcal foliage. Passing the summit an even more interesting panorama is afforded of the state of Morelos. lying 6000 feet below and requiring a zig-zag rail way Journey of 40 miles to reach Its capital. Reaching this lower elevation, al though still about 5000 feet above sea level, evidences of the real tronlcs are ot hand. Bananas and coffee are grown commercially, while snlolehes of deep crimson and roors crowded with purple show the splen dors of the regal poinsettia and bougainvillea under the Influence of a tropic sun. Here is the ancient rasne or ;or tez. erected hy the Spanish conquer ors nearly 400 years ago. It Is Rtlll in use as the cnpltol or me state or Morelos. Valuable paintings hnng on lis time and battle-scarred walls and Its upper verandas afford wonderful views of the eliy and surroundings. Yet modern Inventions are beginning to invade this ancient structure which still serves as executive man sion, stale house and prison. There are electric lights and In an execu tive office are Oliver typewriters and Kdlson-DIrk mimeographs. The cathedral, with several ad joining chapels each with exquisitely decorated Interiors and ancient chimes of bells. Is one of the most Interesting In all Mexico. A book might be written of the priceless treasures of these cathedrals. Known Internationally are the famous Bnrda gardens. More than II. 000. 000 was spent In their first establishment and more has since heen added. Yet here, as elsewhere in Mexico, revolution has left Its de vastating mark. The are unmis takable evidences of the work of fir ing squads within Its walls, while a part of the structure that was once a retreat for Emperor Maxlmllllan Is now used for the curing and storing of coffee. The ground! still retain much of their tropic beauty, although the present owner fled before the rising tide of revolution and has not yet returned. An echo of revolutionary activities wus noted here during Inaugural Week. About 1000 former Zapatis tas marched through the town one morning and into the military head quarters. Although no publicity was given, it was ufterwards privately learned that they had brought In two men alleged to huve been promoting further revolutionary activities. And the story goes flint they were sum marily court rnurllaled and shot. The Kuputlstiis are said to be friendly wlih tho Ohregon government ul the present time. Cuernnvuca now has but three American residents, although before the revolution there wus a consider able American colony. These colon ieis fled before the uprisings of the Zapatistas and their beautiful, mod ern homes were all destroyed. In some lines these Mexicans show remarkable skill, and Cuernavaca pottery still maintains the highest rank. Of heniiilful rieslm and llnlsh, it Is eagerly sought. This place vies with Guadalajara In having the "perfect climate;" the place where it is always June. A return trip at night shows Mex ico City a radiant gem of electric lights in the midst of the broad val ley. A Bight never to be forgotten.

Dunn evidently collected, a largo amount of money in this county by representing himself to be the agent of a house dealing in stationery. He agreed to name a farmer's ranch, register the name and print the new embossed letterhends. Rnri rnllected n substantial foe In advance for these services and for this work.

"Alus, poor Yorlck." Mr. Mrs. Tom Kennedy, of Hillings. Montana, passed through Itoseburg last night enrotlto to California to spend the remainder of the winter. She was greeted at the stntlon in this city by Miss Ruth Ann Wilson, of the local high school. PEOPLES SUPPLY CO.
