A woMAN's LIFE IN MEXICO.
The Tyranny of Mexican Social Eth
quette-A Unique Courtship.
49, TIL


This is the first year that ladies, even
Americans, could walk through the streets
of Mexico alone in daytime without being
grossly insulted. They look her straight
in the eye and say whatever they please.
AS to their own wives. they are prisoners
always. They are never permitted to
walk or ride out for a moment without
their husbands, unless the need is very
imperative. One call from any gentleman
viii compromise any married woman in
Mexico. 1t is not believed TO be possible
that a woman can innocently appear
alone upon the street without her hus-
band.
An American lady who boards at the
Hotel Iturbide tells me of a Spanish
American wife there who. though as we'll
as Imprisonment will permit, has not been
out of her room once in seven weeks, eN-
cept to go to church confession, doubt
less) once on Sunday. Her meals are
sent to her. To see American ladies out
shopping seems to these tyrants and vic
tins a degrading spectacle.
/ wouldn't like TO be a Young girl in
"May-he-co, AS they call this land-or
young fellow either. 1t is considered in
decent for them to speak to each other till
they have virtually become engaged, or to
see each other without the presence of
third parties till they are married. To
behold a Mexican youth at first courtship,
gazing Enthusiastically up at brown girl
a hundred feet distant on an upper bal
cony, whom he has never been permitted
to speak to, holding his steed immovable
and gazing up, on his head a colossal hat
brave with great ropes and arabesques of
gold, on his legs breaches of some fine
stuff, gorgeous with silver buttons or coins
down the legs in double rows, holding his
place with unwinking eye an hour at a
time. and coming there day after day,
week after week, rain or shine-especiall
rain-drenehed to the skin, persistent and
passionate-well, know few more edify-
ing spectacles. In two months, if he is
lucky, he viii be able to get into the

WoRTHINGToN, Nov. 20.--Your CORES
pendent has just returned from Yankton,
Dakota, where the U. S. court for the south
ern district of Dakota is in session. Yank-
ton has several fine public buildings, among
which may be mentioned the Yankton Union
College, court house, Indian school building,
and asylum. Steamboating on the river
seems TO be played out. Yankton is blessed
with good hotels, among which is the Mer-

The dining room service is good and tables

Your correspondent happened to be in
court when the U. S. grand jury were called
and as there were the usual number Of alb
sentees, was favorably impressed with the
manner Of Judge Edgerton when he directed
the clerk to call the absent ones a second
time. As the call was made without response,
Judge EdgertOn directed the clerk TO enter
a fine of $50 against each, and turning to
the U. S. district attorney he said, 'sand
want you to see that these fines are col
lected." was in Yankton four days and
saw but little grain in market.
Speaking Of hotels, reminds us that Sioux
City needs hotel and needs it bad; not a
fair hotel in the city. Some enterprising
man would do well to open up good hotel
at a reasonable price and convenient loca-
ton.
