TIRE GROOM BUYS THE TRoUssEAU.
1t Costs Money to Marry One OF
Mexico's Ssnoritas.

1t Costs Money to Marry One of
Mexico's Senoritas.
From the Kansas City Times.
Marriage in Mexico ia attended by pre-
nminaries which might we'll cause single
man to mark the country down there as a
good one not to visit. A diamond ring by
way Of token OF engagement. a gold band
signifying marriage, are matters custom ex-
acts OF the matrimonial inclined American.
but that Hymen should tax the bachelors
purse to such mysteries as make up his
brides trousseau is too much. Yet that he
does In the land OF cactus is o solemn, grew
some fact that Theodore W. Parvin will
vouoh for.
sin Mexico" Mr.. Parvin justly observes.
"they have some peculiar customs In re-
gard to marriage. Tne groom provides
the brides trousseau to the minutest partic-
ular. He buys every bit OF it; every stock
ing, hair-pin, pair of garters-e everything,
In fact.
my wife did not wear, or even bring
from Mexico, a single thing that she had
ever worn before, not even her jewelry, to
some of which she had become greatly at
tached. knew that it was incumbent on
me to make the purchases, but didn't
know how to go about that part of the mar
riage preparation, and went to my wife's
mother and confessed.
You see, it is also the custom for the
mothers of the contracting parties TO do the
shopping together. My wife's mother pleaded
ignorance of the American styles and the
requirements of this climate, so I induced
two American ladies to buy everything, and
/ meekly followed around and paid the
bills"
But there are other curious incidents at
tendant upon high-class Mexican wedding.
"The marriage festivities are very elabor-
ate" says Mr.. ParvIn, everybody drinks
and has a good time for three or four days
Tie invitation TO the wedding would seem
odd to an American. Here is one sent out
by my wife's people:
THE invitation is neatly engraved. and
stated, in Spanish, that The General Man
uel Sanchez Rivera, and Soledad Barrigan
of Sanchez Rivera invite you to the mar
riage of their daughter, Josefine
at this your home etc." Mr.. Parvin smiled
in a superior way, and said in explanation:
"The Mexican never invites you to his
home, but, pretending that it is yours,
Graves always the honor OF meeting you
there"
Women of this country who must fain
content themselves with being Daughters of
Rebeka will be envious when they learn
through Mr.. Parvin that ia Mexico women
may join the Masonic order as well as men.
He said yesterday: "My wife belongs to
the order and her father is SD degree
MEMBER
Mr.. Parvin says that it is but seldom
that an American. be he ever 80 rich, wins
an introduction into Mexican society
There is no middle class In Mexico" he
says. land there Is as broad a distinction
between the better class OF Mexicans and
the lower class as there Is between the best
white people In this country and the
negroes. IL Is very rare thing, indeed, for
an American 20 obtain entrance % the
houses OF the best pevple.H

CAUSES SUFFERING IN HEAVEN
Every Time Sin ia Committed in the
World.


World.
AT ST. Pasrick's church yesterday morn
ing Father Dougherty of New York, the
successor to Father Drungoole in the mis-
sion work among the homeless boys of the
metropolis, preached an eloquent sermon .
His theme was the life of Christ from his
birth in the humble stable at Bethlehem to
his cruoifxion on Mount Calvary, followed
by his burial, resurrection and ascension
into heaven.
AS Father Dougherty went through the
scenes of the last days of the Savior upon
earth, he painted word pictures of the car
rying of the cross and the crucifixion, tax
ing as basis the fourteen stations Of the
cross hanging upon the walls of the church.
His language was deeply affecting In de-
picting the sufferings OF Christ for the SAL
vation of sinners. He told his hearers that
every time sin is committed 1t causes a re-
newal of the Savior's sufferings, and he
pleaded with them to abhor vices The SER
mon was one Of the finest ever heard in St.
Patrick's.

The Sentences of the Three Valparaiso
Rioters Are Largely Increased.
VALPARAISO, Feb. Judge of Crimes
Foster yesterday passed sentence in
the long-pending and much-discussed
Baltimore assault case of October
16, 1891. His sentence is SUBJ
iect to review by the Court of Appeals
The document covers $50 pages and goes
over again all the evidence against the ac-
cused, and compares il closely with the evil
dence presented by the prisoners. The find
ing of the Court is as follows:
Carlos Arena, alias Gomez, sentenced to
$40 days imprisonment for wounding Will
lam TurnDull, the coal HEAVIER of the Balti-
more, who died OF his injuries: 800 days for
public disorder; 60 days for carrying knife
and % days for giving an assumed name.
This makes a total of 920 days.
Jose Ahumada, sentenced to 32O days
imprisonment for injuring Turnbull. Fred
erico Rodriguez, sentenced to 40 dayS' i'm
prisonment for wounding Boatswain's Mate
Charles W. Riggin, another of the murdered
American seamen, for public disorder and
for carrying knife.
1t is held by Judge Foster that the evil
dence does not show that Rodriguez killed
Riggin. On the contrary, it is claimed that
Higgins death was caused by shot which
was fired by some unknown person Gomez
and Rodriguez, under the Chilean penal
code, must pay the families of Turnbull and
Riggin damages. These damages are recoy-
cradle by civil suit

The Iron and Glass Bank Should have
Prosecuted Him Before.
An information was made yesterday be-
fore Alderman McMaster's, charging John
c. Brosi, the former jeweler of the South
side, with forgery. Brosi had just COM
pleted term in the penitentiary for his
wrongdoings, and is now to be tried again
for practically the same offense. The in
formation was made by an official of the
Iron and Glass Bank of the Southside, who
charges the defendant with forging names
to several notes and checks amounting to
$780, A day has not yet been fixed for a
hearing In the meantime Brosi is under
bail.
There is considerable feeling among his
friends at the attitude taken by the officials
of the Iron and Glass Bank toward Brosi.
They say when he was tried originally there
was an effort made to have all the banks
that had been victimized to cooperate in
his prosecution. The Iron and Glass Bank
refused to have anything to do with the
case. The German Savings Bank officials
went to the trouble and expense of having
Brosi arrested and brought from Canada,
and in conjunction with the Manufacturers
Bank had him convicted
