How He Utihized the Donations to the Shrine of Our Lady of Guada- Jloupe—Stories of Old Mexico. “ Behind the Cross the Devil.” 1o Crry, May 25.—[Special to 3. ]—Mexico is supposed to be a protestant country, in fact the law says the people shall be protestants if they wish to vote. This state of affairs was brought about some years ago by Presi- dent Benito Jvarez, the Indian ruler, who destroyed all the convents and monasteries iu Mexico, appropriating their treasure to the uses of the govern- meut, and there are those who say he kept a large slice for himsell! Be this, however, as it may the Holy Seriptures were introduced into the republie, the Baptists sent in the first missionaries, some of whom were promptly murdered as “‘an example to intruders.” The people remaired at heart Roman catho- at night, 18 the Lest food for a brood eow | lics, while the soldiers went about shouting: “Tras la cruz esta el dia- blo! (Behind every cross lurks the devil). One has but to see this city on Sun- day to realize that this part of Mexico is by no means protestant. On the Paseo de 1a Reforma are 3,000 vehicles more brilliantly attired chiidren. On horseback, bright with such trimmings none but Mexican cabolleros wear, are 500 or 600 horsemen. The entire length of the asphalt boulevard nearly three i soldiers in, the fullest™ of full s uniform are stationed, mounted agnificent horses, most of them jet black. They are but fifty feet apart, and are on both sides of the drive., On the side-walks, which are twenty feet wide, is a throng of well-dressed’ peo- ple; nine in every ten of the ladies wear silk and sport fine diamonds. It is a scene such us no tourist, though he may travel the whole world over, will ever see duplicated, save here, where he may behold it any Sunday when the weather 15 elear enough for a bull-fight, Quite different is the scene at Guada- loupe, four miles from the city, whither we drive from the gay Paseo, by one of the causeways of stone built by the Aztecs years before the landing of Cortez on those shores. To the Mexi- cans the shrine of the Virgin of Guada- loupe is the holiest spot in the world. The story of this magnificent cathedral is marvelous enough to be told again, and its truth is vouched for by some of the most eminent scholars of the repubiie. STORY OF A CATHEDRAL, In the year 1581, according to the re- cords of the church, Juan Diego, a poor and ignorant Indian was making his way to the city to early mass. Descend- ing the hill he was met by the Blessed Virgin who commanded him to speak to the bishop of Mexico, in her name, and tell him to build a ehurch on that spot, Jjust at the foot of the hill, The bishop ! at that time was the very famous Zu- | maraga—known to archaologists as the riest who destroyed many of the fing: | Aétee idoly in the country—and this | great man intimated that Juan had been dreaming,whereupon young Diego walked back to the spot. where the Blessed Lady had appeared to him and she again presented herself to his view. When she heard of Zumaraga’s incre- dulity. she tapped the ground with her foot and there gushed from the eerth a very wonderful chalybeate spring, the lik of which does not exist in all Me N and which flows, in all its purity and healing vir- tues, to-day as then. After the water gusned forth the virgin bad peon hold up his cotton L tilma, and she filled it with rar curious flowers, hidding him give them to the bishop and reiterate her com- mands. Juan made all haste to the city, prostrated himself at the bishop's . told him of the marvelous things that had happened him, and ended by emptying the flowers from his tilma, when, lo and behold, upon the cloth was a fine oil painting o f our blessed Lady of Guadaloupe, and it was a painting of which the Spaniards of that day, and the Aztecs as well, were utterly mcapa- ble of painting! The bishop fell to his knees in adoration and Juan Diego FAINTED FROM THE EXCITE NT. The most magnificent church in Mex- ico was erocted on the chosen spot; completea in 533, In the altar, enshrined in a crystal case, surrounded by a solid gold frame stud- ded with jewels, is the miraculous painting, its colors as fresh and vivid, its drawing as sharp, and every detail as 858 years ago, when it was given to Juan Diego; and it is worth noting that other celebrated pictures in the same church, dated 150 years later, are dingy, and the figures scarcely discern- ible. - The miracle painting is by no means the only thing worth seeing at Guada- loupe. To-day there are 1,600 pilgrims from the yellow fever infected district of Vera Cruz (most of whom have walked the entire distance here), off ing up prayers for the safety of them- selves and friends from the dread d ease, which is now virtually epidemic in the seaport town. A GORG JUS ALTAR They kneel before an altar rail which weighs a trifle over fifty-two thousand pounds—twent; tons—and which is made of a ‘‘composite” so rich that English and Ameérican syndicates have repeatedly offered to replace it with one of solid ‘siyer, elegantly orna- mented. The church refused these offers, claiming .ghat it was worth 50 per centum more than puro silvor. Ths Virginof Guadaloupe is the first American saint in¥the calendar. The building of this church was at a most op- portune time, fbr the Indians were just quitting idol' wordhip, and the good bishop of Zumatragd had thousands of converts, This wh&' not exactly what some of the Spdwish soldiers liked, and one day a cavalryman found, in a mag- uey plant, a wo’q:fe" image of the virgin clothed in silksg gnd adorned pearls and mugm}htunl jewels. set up a shrine on called their virgin OUR LADY OF SUCCOR, But the virgin of Gaudaloupe worked 80 many strange mirdvles that presently the shriue of Our Lady of Succor was dé- serted quite, and the image was placed in the cathedral lest the value of the jewels should tempt thieves. It is here yet, and decidededly the most unique thing of its kind in existence. The pearis and other jewels are valued at $100,000, It is amazing how the fame of our Lady of Guadaloupe has spread to the re- motest ends of Mexico, and to Kurope, too, for that matter. Every day finds a dozen or more pilgrims at this holy shrine. A pile of crutches fiftecn feet with They another hill and high and ten feet long testify to what she done for the lame: with standing was cured hero threw away his eruches and returned o his home in_the country rejoicing. A Buptist missionary at Suitillo, hundreds of miles from here, was called recently toseea dying woman. She said sh was a Protestant. As the breath w almost leaving her the good man begged her to acknowledge her faith in our saviour as a meuns of salvation. “Don’t do it,” eried the dying woman’s mother, “the ‘gringo’ preacher is lying to you. Cail on our Lady Guadalaupe; shé can save your soul. [ com- mand you to it!” And with the name that saint upon her lips her spirit took its flight. The enti amily to which the dead woman belonged are regarded as staunch Protestants, but their tradi- tions are too much for them. THE GOOD BISIIOP HEME. There is one little incident connected with the church of Guadaloupe that has never been in print, 'tis said, since the influence of the parties interested has been great enough to make itself felt over the local papers—all of which, except, perhaps, the M an Finan- cier, a trade journal, are ‘‘subsidized,” 80 to speak, which accounts for the remarkable news service from Mexico that we get in the States. Some yenrs ago there was a movement started by those who had been cured at the shrine of Our Lady of Guadaloupe, to crown her picture with a magnificent golden crown finer than anything ever before seen in Mexico. The queen of Spain was to come over and perform the cor- onation, and it was to be a great event. The most worthy and excellent bishop. whose name is Bl thoughtfully, agreed to act us treasure of the fund. The mon came rolling in large amounts and centavos, until at length it reached the grand total of $1,000,000. Just about this time, so the good bishop is reported to have said, the authorities forbade the holding of any ceremonies outside the church i fice, thus squelching, very effectively, ny further action for the time being. It is claimed that this decision cost the good bishop nearly $200,000 by the time he got through “greasing” the ne sary men, 1But 1t was cheap at that fig- ure since he had $1,300,000 left, which, ’tis said, is being invested in fine ha- clendas and profitable mines on the west coast, And those who contributed repent, their folly, but they are unani- mous in saying, **It is useless to do any- thing in the matter; the money 18 prob- ably all gone by this time.”” Such is the Mexican temperament. And now, in the city, and through all the various states of the republic in which we havp traveled, they bave an expression 1o designate a very *‘slick” swind say: ‘“Heis a Blanquea!” This dovs not affect, however, either the sl digestion of the good and v bishop, who pursues the even tenor of his way undisturbed by the evil reports Try the tr system of growing late potaives.

Many are the horrible tales of Indian outrages perpetrated upon the early prospector who dared to venture ouv in search of the precious. metal. Karly in these days it became known that to the west and northwest of the hills, in Central Wyoming there existed some fertile valley lands with abundance of water and rare indications of coal, petrol um, ete. The temptation was too t for the progressive Amevican frontiersman and prospector to withstand, and numerous 5 would put out with all the perils and blood curdling reports and former mas- sacres staring them in the face, with a determination of reaching the promised land. Party after party succumbed to the knife and tomahawk of the blood thirsty suvages, but undaunted by fail- ure, the noble prospector succeeded in penetrating the very heart of the red man’s * paradise, the spot where history telis us the oble reds would come at different times in the year and hold their traditional sun dances. It proved unquestionably to be the garden spot of the great un- explored “'land of the free and home of the brave.” Here in the midst of this fairy land the prospector pitched his tent about twelve yewrs ago. The place is now called Sundance, a beautiful unl thriving little village of 800 or 1,000 people, situated about sixty miles due west of Deadwood, Dak., in Cook county, Wyoming. The nearest rail- way station is Whitewood, the terminnl station of the Kremont & Elkhorn Val- ley railway. undance has perhaps one of the most brilliant fuwures of any voung eity i the northwest.
