TO that of the '~.contadine.' and thus it is
hoped that Il thoroughly graphic and
veracious life picture of female human

are ladies from China. Japan, the South
American republics. from Mexico and
Cuba. as well us from the continent.
The Tyrolese girls. 1t is reported, are

garian contingent sailed a complete or
chestra of musicians. The agents EN-
ployed in getting together this company
of fair women have interviewed. it is
said, no fewer than 1900 persons who

have not ceased to flock to the gay city
