CHURCH AT SAN JOSE DE CABAL.
from a photograph ]

The plaza and the theater are the
only places where the better class OF
women are seen, as a rule. They used
to attend the bull fights, but now they
have tsbooed that sport, and as the
women quit going 80 did most OF the
men.
Most persons writing on Latin Amer
lean countries have great deal to say
about the beautiful women. Mazstlan
has a great many really handsome
women. So for that matter has Los An
gsles. There doesn't seem to be any
thing especial in the atmosphere here
which oonduces to monopoly OF pretty
forms and faces. The homely old adage
that pretty is az pretty does seems 3
good one. You can't always tell how
pretty a woman is when che ia on dress
parade with a boughten complexion.
What is more important Mazatlan
claim, among its citizens q great many
hospitable, genteel men and women.
THE FOREIGN COLONY.
The German colony leads the foreign
procession. followed by the French.
There are not half a dozen American
families in thu city. German inf uence
is strong. They were the pioneers, and
their country has never had the miss
fortune to become disagreed with this.
Mexicans can forgive a Frsnchman, for
they firmly believe they gave Johnny
Frog a tremendous trouncing once upon
a time. But they have no memory OF
having whipped the gringoa and, an.
fortunately all around. their memory
does revert sometimes to the excursion
of General Taylor and Winfield Scott to
the City Of Mexico during Santa Aua's
regime.
THE MEXICAN TARIFF.
One thing which is OF vital, alao of
fatal interest to Americans who contem.

tariff customs and internal duties. /

Special Correspondence to THE HERALD.
Mazatlan is the principal city on the
West Mexican coast, and it used to be
larger aud more important than it is
now. Before the days of '49 Mazatlan
furnished San Francisco with most OF
her supplies-w that i'm portsnt city
was plain, simple Yerbs Buena. The
building of the Mexican Central railroad
and The Arizona and New Mexico road
deprived this town of large portion OF
its territory. Mazatlan is therefore in
the sere and yellow leaf. POLITICALLY
speaking, and growing worse. Any pat
riotic citizen will claim a population
here of from $4,000 to 1900. according

LULLABY.

Tired Of play, my little boy
One evening climbed my knee.
Nesting in my arms, hesSaid:
'Flease sing a songto me.
Don't sing the song you always sing.
Sing one I've never heard"
Ipressed his velvet cheek to mine
And answered not a word,
But in the twilight soft and dim,
sang this little song to him:
Rest, little curly head rest on my arm,
Droop, weary lids, over eyes of gray,
Gods holy angels will keep thee from harm
Through the dark night as well as the day.
Rest thee, my baby, with never care
Thy slumber to mar or thy waking to share.
Rest, little curly head, happy and free,
Sweet be thy dreaming the whole night long,
The darkness can hold no terrors for thee
Who know not the meaning Of right or OF
wrong
Rest little curly head, leave him who sings
To mourn the regrets which experience brings.
Sleep, little curly head, sleep on my breast,
The daylight is fading and playtime is DER
The song bird that woke thee has gone to its
nest
And, save in thy dreams, will call thee no
more.
Sleep, little curly head, dark falls the night,
Haste thee to dreamland where pathways are
bright.
Sleep, little curly head, close to my heart,
No thought Of the morrow disturbs thy re-
pose,
No haunting visions will cause thee to start
Thou st yet to discover the thorn OH the rose.
Sleep little curly head, leave him who sings
To mourn the regrets which experience brings.

"If Captain Bassett, the Watchdog Of
the senate, ever dies, hope he'll leave to
posterity one Of his secrets that would
make rich picking for us guides, " resumed
the old fellow after q moments pause.
"You know JEFF Davis had seat In the
senate before he switched of on secession.
That seat Ii still there Some senator sits
in 1t through the whole session, but don't
know that 1t once belonged to JEFF Davis.
Why2 Cause Bassett won't tell, though
he knows. He's 80 blanked careful about
the property Of the senate chamber that
he's too stingy to tell, for fear the visitors
will chip of splinters for souvenirs. Dur
ing the war q lot Of soldiers got into the
chamber and stuck their bayonets into the
desk, and I reckon they thought they'd
made kindling wood Of it. But old Cap
tain Bassett goes to work and patches 1t
all up with screws and putty and varnish
till 1t looks like any other old desk In the
chamber. know for certain that some
mighty influential senators have tried to
get the secret out of the old man, but they
might as we'll talk to the Goddess Of Liber-
ty on top Of the dome as to try to get him
to tell which Is JEFF Davis seat. As be-
fore enunointed, he's too stingy to tell, and
the secret will die with him, reckon, I'M

Sherman and Hoar, get right down into the

A LITTLE SURPRISE.


est little woman in the world for my wife.
The year just concluded had in conse-
quence been the happiest Of my existence,
present in remembrance Of the event which
had made us one for life. As know how
much more delightful gift becomes when
1t Is unexpected, said nothing to my
wife Of my Intentions wishing to take her
quite by surprise. The accompanying mar
rative will, I think, show how completely
I succeeded in that endeavor.
My business lay In the city, whittier 1t
was my custom to travel every morning
from the quiet of little suburban resi-
dence, returning home in time for cozy
dinner in the early evening. 1t was my in
variable practice to carry with me small
Gladstone bag, and on the day in ques-
tion, after placing into this, along with
few other things, the articles CAD pur-
chased for the purpose named, and which
consisted of a gold bangle, pendant for
the neck, with ruby star attached, and a
small diamond brooch, took the train at
Cannon street in the very lightest Of spirits
on my journey home.
Seating myself in the CORNER Of the first
GLASS carrlaso Al "HAon rouo, Wiol Ivy
bag In hand, l was for a time the only o.
cupant of the compartment, but as the
train was on the point Of starting l was
joined by a person Of very gentlemanly ex-
terror, faultlessly dressed who stepped in
to the carriage with an air of some con-
Germ. Like myself, he carried bag-a
circumstance not at all striking In itself,
but noticeable on this occasion by the SO.
