ROAMING IN MEXICO
STRANGE SIGHTS AND PICTURESQUE FIGURES TO BE SEEN
The First Morning in the City of Mexico. The Water Carrier and Milkman—The Women's Costumes—An American from Omaha and His Sudden Decline.
If Jules Verne had taken a trip to the city of Mexico and other cities in Mexico which have never been disturbed by the dust and noise of our Nineteenth century locomotives, he need never have taken his celebrated trip to the moon to see strange phases of life. Or he might have called Mexico his moon and written the wonderful tales without in the least fatiguing his imagination.
The first morning in Mexico is full of wonders. Where were the open sewers running with fountains? Where were the death dealing colors and black funeral stree-tors which we supposed were to be shaken hurrying after every car filled with the change. The streets were clean and well swept, the air met sweet and exhilarating, and over all, breathtaking its benefit into every narrow street, was the glorious ever constant sunlight.
STREET SCENES IN THE CAPITAL
Strange sights greeted one at every turn. Down the street passed a vendor of fruits. On his head was a large first tray fringed around the edges with leaves and filled high with yellow mask moons, white on either hand was balanced a smaller tray, one containing apricots and the other prickly pears. This last manner fruit back like small beets.
The picturesque engrossing which all have seen of the eastern carrier has in Mexico living counterpart lent half double under the large par of water on his back, which is sequenced by strips passing over his shoulders and forehead. He treats all day from house to house, measuring the water lot in a pitcher which he carries in his hand, and soiling for a moment a powerful. He is barefoot or has sunny a pair of leather strapped to the sides of his feet, his white drawers are pulled up to his knees, and over his white shirt the years a short leather or cotton jacket. Although he furnishes one of the most picturesque objects in Mexico.
The milkman has bushed all his own—the only swarm of his brown pantalons is left open from the naked if his bare foot to the knee she wearing a blazer of snowy white cloth. The woman wear the chemise as their only waist a bright embroidered pettetat, and the inevitable scar has reabses, with its grenouil fringe seems a suitable dress for this climate. One cannot help wishing that...

There are many private carriages in Mexico which are imported from the United States, and we saw many times horses. These all looked very natural but the drivers and footmen would call from our polite newsboys many at 9:15, 10:15, and afford them much amusement. Sitting on the box, their shawl-like scrapes of bright colors drawn around their shoulders and their hands covered with the hat of the country, felt that the crown of which resembles a very tall beehive and the broad brim profusely decorated with silver brand—the Mexican John is a tremendous follow, and can be seen any afternoon in all his glory driving the fairest senoritas along the Paseo, the fashionable drive which lies between the city and Chapaltepec, the site upon which stood the summer home of Montezuma.
Her one afternoon we came to the most beautiful spot we had ever seen. The hill is surrounded by a grove of giant cypress trees, through which the road winds around and up until the castle on the summit is reached. These trees, covered with Spanish moss, are the only survivors of all their kind which once covered the whole Mexican valley. Their branches droop pathetically as though they were still dreaming of their lost companions and mourning over the sorrows of their Aztec friends, who, no doubt, loved them dearly—Cor. Chicago Journal.
Her Parents Shocked Her.
The following anecdote of a public school graduate was told at a recent meeting of the Association of Collegiate Alumni in New York city: "One young lady, exceptional in her frankness, though probably not in her opinion," said the narrator of the story, "graduating from a grammar school in whites satin and cotton lace, with seven bouquets, three baskets of flowers and 71 per cent., remarked to a friend:
"Yes, I've finished my education, but I'm not so happy as I possess it. You see, papa and mamma promise their words so shocking, and know so little about science and literature and ruthenic — it's positively a hardship to associate them. But I hope I shall have to endure. I mean to marry a banker and live at —Chicago Tribune."
