Hotel Life in the City of Mexico.

Everything in the way of living,
writes a correspondent, is cheap in
Mexico, Of course prices range higher
in the capital than elsewhere, but even
there the prices are much lower than
with us. The hotels for instance,
furnish excellent rooms at from $40 to
$50 month. At the Hotel Iturbide the
rooms are very large, and usually di-
vided by curtains, so as to make parlor
and bedroom. The arrangement is a
pleasant one, and preferable to having
two rooms. For thirty dollars month
you can procure one of those apart
ments, handsomely furnished and
efficiently attended. The scheme of the
hotel extends no further. Your bath
and your meals are outside affairs. On
the ground floor OF the Hotel Iturbide
is an excellent French restaurant and a
very good bath house. These are
separate establishments. The price of
the bath is two reals, twenty-five cents,
and at the restaurant two persons can
contract for meals at $3.50 each per
week. Of course there are other restau-
rants, and of one, the Grand Tivoli, I
can speak safely in terms of unbounded
praise. 1t is arranged as park, with
lovely grounds, fountains, streams and
flowers in profusion.
In the city dining places are scattered
about here and there Chinese pagodas,
Swiss chalets, French cottages in minia-
ture-you choose the retreat which
pleases you most. 1t is here that you
find the great tree, on one of whose
branches is a pretty little cabin, to
which you ascend by spiral stairway,
if you prefer dining SO far from mother
earth. I believe it will be conceded by
all who have partaken of the menu Of
the Grand Tivoli that better cooked,
better served and more elegantly ap-
pointed dinner could hardly be found
anywhere in the world. The cooks are
of the finest Paris schools, the wines
genuine and the accessories simply fasci-
mating.

Geese as Practical HumOrists.

A goose has perhaps the keenest ap-
probation of humor of any animal, un-
less it be her own arch enemy, the fox
The writer once saw in a little grassy
paddock some eight or ten fat and
healthy pigs and half score of geese.
From this paddock a narrow, open gate
gave entrance into the farmyard, and as
evening drew on, the geese ranged them
selves in q row at this Thermopyla.
Obviously, supper time was approach
ing, and the pigs wished to return home
to their troughs. Equally clearly, the
geese had given each other the word not
to let them pass through the gate which
they guarded, without paying toll.
First came up jolly, good humored lit
tie pig, who trotted cheerfully along
with confidence which ought to have
disarmed criticism, till he came among
the geese. Then, with a cackle and
scream, every neck was stretched to get
a bite at him, and, squalling and yelling,
the poor little porker run the gauntlet.
The same fate befell six or seven more
of his brethren in succession, each be-
traying increasing trepidation as he ap-
preached the fatal pass, and made bolt
through the geese, whose chattering and
screeches of delight were almost indis-
tinguishable from human laughter. At
last, the biggest pig of the party brought
up the rear. He was pink deshed,
clean young fellow, with fat limbs and
sides, and his ears were cooked, and his
tail sharply twisted in the intelligent,
wide-awake manner which 80 completely
distinguishes the intellectual pig from
the mere swine multitude. With loud
grunt OF defiance, this brave beast
charged through the flock of geese, and
had actually almost gained the gate,
when large, gray goose made one grab
at his fat ham, caught up the skin in a
bunch, and gave it tremendous pinch
with her red beak. Needless to say, the
air was rent with the squeals of agony
of the injured pig and the ecstatic peans
of the flock of geese in chorus. From
the order in which the transaction took
place, we derive the impression that q
similar game of prisoners base probably
formed the entertainment of the geese
every evening.

The Young Attorney.

The Detroit Free Press thus describes
a youngster who came to that place from
Boston to be lawyer:
1t was amusing how quickly that boy
picked up a knowledge of legal busi-
Office when the lawyer went out, and he
felt all the Importance Of his position.
When big boys came around to ask for q
job of carrying up coal Thomas went for
them heavy.
"Boyr' he would answer in severe
voice, 81 don't want to see you come to
grief, but if you don't hurry right down
stairs I'll get out capias. switch you
behind the bars and have you hung be.
fore grass starts !"
The attorney had to go to Chicago one
day, and he told Thomas that he might
wash the windows and slick up little.
Thomas went in. He had new mating
put on the floor, put a painter at work
and hired an old woman to wash every
thing which could be washed. It was
neat job all around, and he felt as if he
ought to be praised for his enterprise.
The attorney begun to scold, but Thomas
remarked:
CANT we as good as those one-horse
lawyers across the road Is law Office
barn or is it law Office ?"
Two weeks ago he was told to go down
and order half ton of coal to keep the
stove going till warm weather. Some
one told him the coal would be consid-
erably higher next year, and SO, on the
ground of economy, he ordered five tons
sent up, and most of it had been dump
Fed on the walk before the attorney dis
covered the situation. Thomas would
probably have lasted week or SO longer
than he did, but for his reception of a
lady client vino came to see the lawyer
about applying for divorce The law
yer was trying the case in court, and the
boy had sole charge of the office. He
received the lady in his usual urbane
manner, and when she inquired for the
attorney, he replied
He is out, but my legal services are
at your disposal"
She didn't seem inclined to consult
him, and he went on:
{" Is it case of, wife beating or di-
vorce 2"
She intimated that he was an impu-
dent boy, and he replied:
Every well, madam, we can't take
your case at all. ."
She said she'd call and see the lawyer,
but Thomas answered.:
"It won't do you any good. We can't
take your case at all--not for love or
money"
She returned two hours later, when
the lawyer was in and Thomas was out,
and it was decided that the boy would
have to seek some other profession.
That evening, when SO informed, he re-
piled:
"All right. If I'm going to be law
yer want things to git up and git
around. You don't want a lively boy
around here, and saw that over week
ago."
It was intimated tina the hadn't better
"sass" any one, and he blandly re-
piled:
"No one is sassing you. If You want
this partnership dissolved we'll part
friendly. If you don't want to rush
things this is no place for me-"
He is peddling peanuts now, and the
way he dusts around is the cause of his
having half dozen fights per day.
