Of June 3, at WinOna, Mimi, in which he
said: II leave here with my mother for St.

proprietor, Mr. Warner, thought that lie Roy
was in New York Hewas expected in Bos-

City Of Mexico Letter in San Francisco Chronicle
Not only do the male Mexicans ride, but
also few Of the native ladies and many of
the foreign ladies', especially the English and
Americans. Very few Mexican ladies dare
be seen in public on horseback, as it is here
considered vulgar form Of exercise for wom-
en-. There is no accounting for taste, aud
probably some Of our American customs ap-
pear quite as absurd TO the Mexicans as this
idea Of theirs concerning horseback exercise
seems TO Us. Ladies who take horseback ex-
ereise here usually adopt the Mexican cos
tune, as far as the hat is concerned. wearing
a very broad-brimmed felt hat (similar in
shape to the ordinary Mexican "sombrero''),
IN either black, light gray or pale maroon
color. In these sombreros, which are made
of Much lighter weight for ladies than those
worn by men, they look very jaunty. The
rest Of the costume is almost exactly tn =,
same as that worn oy equestriennes in Paris
London or New York.

ONE of the most striking features Of Mill
ism in Russia from the beginning has been
the number Of educated and high-boru PEG
pie who have been directly or indirectly con-
nected with the conspiracy. In fact the Nj
hilist propaganda has derived its main
strength and influence from from the sup
port of the higher classes. Students and
professors of science have been among the
principal offenders arrested by the govern
ment. Disclosures of this character led to
the suspension of the University at Kief and
the interdict on the importation of books.
Among recent cable dispatches we have In
telligence of the arrest of band of conspir-
ators, among whom were "many aristoerats
and ladies'" IN spite of the severe aud
cruel measures Of the Russian government
it is evident that the spirit Of the Nihilists is
not broken nor their strength materially i'm
paired.

And then, all through the waltz quadrille,
You squeezed my hand and pressed my waist
The more blushed, the harder stu.

And when / sternly looked az you.
As though such license 70 forbid.
You winked, and ali tie bclder grew
You did, yor scamp, you know you did.
But, worse than all, when once alone,
lou whispered love-words In my ear,
In passionate and tender tone,
Til, oh felt extremely queer.
1 tried 70 laugh, but had 70 cry.
NV tears fell fast the flowers amid;
And in your arms you made me lie
You did, bad boy, you know you did
And then you held me, oh so fast,
Till Mrs. Elsmore came 20 see
What kept rs; for an hour had past
Upon the moonlit balcony.
You said: "My birdie have Gagged"
The while my burning face I hid;
''lm pleased and proud. FOR we're engagsd''-
You did, dear Tom, yOu know you did.

SUNDAY GLOBELETS.

CLAuDIANUs: Clemency alone makes US
equal with the gods.
BYRON: There is not a joy the world

CHATEAUBRIASD: Justice is the bre ad Of
the nation, it is always hungry for it.
BLAIR: He who goes no further than bare
justice stops at the beginning of virtuer
SHAKsPEARE: Kindness in women, not
their beautious looks, shall win my love.
Mas. L. VI. CAILD: An effort made for
the happiness Of others lifts US above our
selves.
JoASNE BAILLTE: A willing heart adds
feather TO the heel, aud makes the clown a
winged Mercury.
MARCUS ASToNINUs: Ask thy self daily to
how many ill-minded persons thou hast
shown kind disposition.
IzAAK WALTON: II thou be severe, sour
eomplexiOned man, then here disallow
thee to be a competent Judge.
WHATELY: In our judgment of human
transactions, the law of optics is reversed ;
we see the most indistinetly the objects
which are close around US.
SWIFT: Invention is the talent of youth,
and judgment of age; so that onr judgment
grows harder to please, when we have fewer
things to offer it; this goes through the whole
commerce of life.
CoLToN: This is the tax a man must pay
TO his virtues, hold up torch to his
vices, and render those frlilties notorious in
him which would have passed without obser-
walton in another.
SIR n. DAvY: Life is made up not of
grcatsacrifces ordutIes, but of little things,
in which smiles and kindness, and small OBJ.
legations, given habitually, are what win and
preserve the heart, and secure comfort.
FRANKLIN: Justice is as strictly due be-
tween neighbor nations, as between neigh
Dor citizens. A highwayman Is as much a
