Text Appearing After Image:
Copyright by The Detroit Photo Co. PYRAMID OF THE MOON.(See page 107.) THE SIGHTS OF THE CAPITAL 91 President of Mexico, in the presence of an immense gather-ing. Just above the Liberty Bell is a clock which was exiledfrom the church of a small Spanish town because it wassupposed to be bewitched, having struck the hours out oforder. Although the National Palace is the Presidentsofficial residence, he does not live there, but in a compara-tively small house in the Cadena, a thoroughfare runningoff the Plaza, whence he comes, often on horseback, andalways without any escort, to his daily work. The National Museum has a wing of the Palace devotedto it. Here there is a splendid collection of Mexican antiq-uities, idols from temples, ornaments from palaces, jewels,arms, shields and utensils of the Toltecs and Aztecs, withsome few of the Aztec picture-writings, which were savedfrom the bigotry of the monks. There are also portraitsof the great characters in Mexicos history since the Con-que
