Text Appearing Before Image:
ELECTRICITY FOR MERIDA, YUCATAN.
The excellent system of horse, or rather mule railway, at Merida, Yucatan, will be converted to electric. The work of changing several of the principal routes is already underway, and it is hoped soon to bring the entire system up to date. This road is one of the most progressive of the Central American properties, and the energetic young manager, N. Escalante y Peon, some time since laid out a fine pleasure resort which has proved a great success.

Our illustrations show street scenes in Merida, the view at the left being that of the Plaza de la Independencia, and the one at the right a street scene on 60th street, Merida.

Text Appearing After Image:
PLAZA DE INDEPENDENCIA, MERIDA, YUCATAN — SIXTIETH STREET.
