One of the most Interesting side
trips out of Mexico Ciiy is to the
quaint old town of Cuernuvaca, 75
miles south. Passing over the high
range of mounlalns to the south of
the valley of Mexico the railroad
reaches an elevation of nearly 10,-

000 feet above sea level. At such
elevations water boils at a low tem
perature and extra motive power Is
required to take trains over. 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.
