TURNED TO COMMERCIAL USE
Hictoric Mansion in Mexico City Re.
modeled and Made into Typical
American Drug Store.
The conversion of the "House of
Tiles" in the City of Miexico into a typ
ical American drug store marks the
passing of ond of the most palatial and
unique structures ever erected in that
city of interesting buildings. ainy
persons in the United States remember
the house as the "Jockey club," the
most exclusive and aristocratic place
of its kind in the republic, but for the
past few years it has stood on a prom
inent downtown corner, a bleak, de
crepit structure, whose shiny and
gaudy exterior of tile gave evidence
of its former glory. Soon it will open
for Iusiness as a drug store.
The date when the building's foun
dations were laid is lost in obscurity,
but it is thought that It was started
abliout 1590. Later it came into the
possession (of Don Louis do lIivero, a
man of varied career, who was re
sponsible for its exterior cont of tiles.
These latter are of blue, yellow and
white, Moorish lin design, and were
tle by artisans brought from Taln
vern, Spain, by the Dominienn friars
in the sixteenth century. They were
iiotlelId in it speeial ceramic factory
at Puelbin, about 75 itilles distant, and
lie completion of this decoration was
the occasion for a 1ubille c elel)rati lonl.
