BEAUTY IN MExIco.-Mexicans may be
slow in many things, but not slow to love.
The laws of Mexico claim girls at II and
boys at Is years old are eligible to marriage,
and il is not an unusual sight To see wo-
man who looks no more than So years of
age reat-grandmother. As children the
Mexicans are rather pretty, but when a
girl passes 20 years she gets "mucho-
mueho' avoirdupois, and at thirty years
she sports mustache and '1galways" that
would cause young bachelors in the States
to turn green with envy. The men, on the
contrary, are slim and wiry, and do not
boast of their hirsute charms especially
when IN company with women, as they
have little desire TO call attention to the
contrast, and the diamond ring finds other
means to display than stroking aad twist
ing an imaginary mustache- Yet this ex-
change of charms ;nterferes in no way with
love making--[Cer. Pittsburg Dispatch.

sharpers Who Got Left.

The Detroit Free Press tells the following:
There is sharper's game which has been
played for the last hundred years. and as
the turning point is avarice the game works
forty-nine times where it fails once. Two
sharpers set out few weeks ago to plav on
Wayne county farmer. One of them
came along one day and wanted to buv the
farm As the farmer wanted to sell it was
quite easy to strike bargain. The price
was to be $1,000 in cash, and tie man
handed over $3.50 to bind the bargain.
Within two days a second stranger came
along and wanted thefarm. He wanted it
SO bad that he couldn't stand still. He
found indications of coal. natural gas and
coal oil, and he was willing TO give SC. 800
for the place. The idea was, of course. that
the farmer would be awful sick of his first
sale and seek to buy the man oft. Ii would
pay him to offer the man 81, 500 to release
him.
The second stranger was only Out of
sight when the first one turned up again.
His mouth watered over the prospect. but
not for long The farmer explained that
he had been offered $500 more for the
farm, and added
" But | don { care for money. The 81. 600
is enough for me, and it's all the old farm
is worth When you are ready to pay the
balance We'll make out the papers"
The purchaser offered to release him for
81 S7O0-S500-S3o but the farmer
didn't want to be released He hung to the
bargain and he's got it yet, while
the pair of sharpers rave and gnash their
teeth every time they think of the thickness
of his skull.

Some new composite portraits OF
Washington, are published in the last
number of Science. Mr.. W. C. Taylor,
who has prepared the pictures in ques-
ton, took no less than seventeen differ
ent portraits of our first president, pre-
pared at dates ranging from 1873 to
179s, and arranging them in three
groups, according to the positions in
which they were originally taken.
Seven of them are in profile, and con-
stitute the first group. OF the other
the face, and five a nearly front view.
OF each of these three groups a COM
posite was made, and these composites
may fairly be called new portraits OF
their illustrious subject.
The theory of the matter is, OF course,
that in this process the individual char
acteristics of the work of the several ar
fists become effaced, while those fea-
lures which it has in common are pre-
served. The plate upon which these
composites are displayed, each sur
rounded by the portraits from which it
has been made up, is a very interesting
study, and what it most strikingly
shows is that the composites are much
more evidently representations Of the
same mar than any individual portraits
of the three groups appear to be. In
spite of the great diversity of the origin
ais, the composites strongly resemble
each other, and we may undoubtedly
see in them the features OF Washington
more truthfuliy portrayed than in any
of the originals.-Chicago News.

A STRAY BABY.
A Y%oungster at tho West End who II
Causing a Commotion.

There is a slight commotion existing in
a certain quarter of the West End, and
all about a very young baby who has
lately arrived in Cheyenne. The baby is
one of hat kind who don't have any more
fathers and mothers than the law allow,
nor quite so many apparently, and was
lately brought to the residence of a well
known lady who lives in that locality, and
left with her. There do not appear TO
be more than a thousand and one people
who know exactly who it WIS that brought
the ~youngstcr to the residence of Mrs.
. 1t was brought, however. and
the lady referred to agreed for a certain
consideration to take the little stranger in
and care for it. This was about a week
ago, but since that time a slight misunder-
standing has arisen between the original
maverickers, whoever they may be, and
it now transpires that Mrs, - is not
to get as much for taking care Of the
child rs she supposed she would, in other
words, she did not understand the CON
tract fully. The consequence is that Mrs.
- don't exactly know about hat
baby, you know. She would like to do
right thing, but on the whole she is Of the
opinion that she don't want the baby
around Mt that price, and yesterday she
was making some little stir over the mat
ter, but as yet has not proclaimed from
the honse tops at least, where the young
ster hailed from or who brought il TO her
place. The prospects are hat there will
be some further developments in regard
to this wee %youngster to-day or to- morrow,
and it is presumed that some of the origi-
nal ancestors will materialize and the mat
ter be satisfactorily arranged.

Mr.. Donald C. Grant, one of the
Forth Bridge staff, is bringing out a new
form of signal for use at sea to indicate
the direction Of the movement of the
helm, and thus avoid collision with ships
close by. He does not propose to super
sede the side lights at present employed,
but only to supplement them. The
officers on watch is supplied with a
couple of signals small enough to be
carried in a breast coat pocket of ordi-
nary capacity. Should he wish to indi-
cate that his vessel is on the port tack
he takes a signal-with a round handle
and colored red-from his pocket and
fires it by giving it a slight tap. The
result is a brilliant red light. After this
light has burned for about thirty seconds
it explodes a small maroon, the report
of which can be heard a mile off; and
after this the light continues TO burn for
another thirty seconds. The process of
firing the starboard tack signal is, of
course, the same, the result being a
green light; but in this case the handle
is square, this difference in form making
it easy in the dark to distinguish the
right signal TO be employed.-The
Engineer.
