PERUVIAN LADIES AND SOME OF THEIR
HABITs.-A Lima correspondent of the
New York Times writes: The real Peru
Wan families, rich, stylish, and elegantly
dressed, with their servants to follow them
and carry all their shopping purchases, are
as great patrons of these little native messes
as are their humber Cholo neighbors. I
have seen them buy these spicy red hot
dishes, and eat them with their ieweled
fingers as enjoyably as their less refined
blacker sisters.g One thing l have noticed
that strikes every foreigner with disgust,
and proves conclusively that the Peruvian
though by position and birth lady, has
not the innate refinement of the American
or Ene'-' woman A Peruvian woman
oryoung lady, even if her family be among
the most aristocratic and wealthy, habitu-
ally spits upon the fooor or in the street
the same as man, from the constant use
OF cigaretts. Then again, let her be ever
so elegantly dressed, her dress of moire,
her manta the finest of Thibet, and cover
ed with silk embroidery, and borded with
the richest real guipure lace, her fingers
fairly covered with diamonds of great value
and immense size, her diamond earrings,
and the brooch that h.tens her manta to
her forehead of the purest water-I have
repeatedly seen them reject and cast aside
the elegantly embroidered lace handker-
chief, which hangs from their fingers and
use an old dirty red or yellow silk bandan-
ma in the coarssst manner possible, thrust
ing it back again, an unsightly roll or rag,
into the pocket of the lovely mauve or am
Der silk dress. All their habits, such as
picking their teeth and eating with their
fingers, are very dirty, and plainly indicate
total lack of inbredrefnement, and also
an inherited, careless disregard of the little
niceties of life, from their old Inca progen-
itors

THE FEMALE ACROBAT" John Paup
has been to see the woman on the flying
trapeze (M'lle Senyah) in New York, and
makes the following report:
She Was quite pretty woman, neatly
and simply dressed in girdle made of
stripe or two from an American flag encircl-
ing her waist. [ never telt so proud of
my country's flag before. I had seen it
waving over Thriving cities, happy villages
and majestic mountain heights, but this
was the first time that I had ever seen it
generously protecting the waste places I
shln't attempt to describe what the pretty
little woman did on the trapeze, the rings
and the incidental ropes She accomplished
feats that made my hair run cold and
every drop of blood in my veins stand on
end. She swung head downward from the
trapeze bar, holding her husband by one
ear with the tips of her thumb and fore
finger and In that position turned ten SOM
ersaults over the bar, swinging her husband
over her head each time. This feat she
afterward repeated, varying it slightly by
holding her husband in her teeth, and
Messrs. Jarrett and Palmer by the hair
one In each hand. Then she supported
herself by twisting her back hair around
the bar, fastening it with single hair pin,
and afterward fearlessly ate mince pie
Which the programme assured US was
bought in Fulton market-while shud
der of horror ran through the audience.

RUN OFF At GRANITEvILLE. The through
train on the South Carolina Railroad was
thrown off the track at Graniteville on Sunday
evening. No material damage was done, and
the train arrived in Augusta at 11.2O P. NJ. It
is feared that there was foul play, as the gates
had been tampered with. there should be o
thorough investigation. This is the first rum
of there has been at Graniteville, and it is .
somewhat curious coincidence that one should
have occurred just at this time.
