The work of repairing the roof
of the Alamo is progressing rap
idly and satisfactorily, notwith-
standing the delay on account Of
the rain. So far the work has been
confined to the porches on the
north side of the building.
The large room on the north
wing has been covered with a SUBJ
stantial lumber roof, covered with
tin, and fitted with a sky light,
which also serves for the adjoining
room.
On the roof what is known as
the magazine room a blackberry
tree had taken root. The tree was
six or seven feet high, and the root
in its vamifications covered a large
area. 1t was removed. This is
the only original roof on any part
OF the building. The soil will be
tamped down and covered with a
layer Of cement. A number Of
grape vines are also growing on
top OF the building. An old iron

important night they borrow old shirts
from their fathers and cut out brown
paper miters, from which hang masks
that conceal their faces. Each guiser is
accompanied by squire dressed as Il

door when he sings. While the song is
in progress she sweeps the floor with a

A strange Feast.

A curious feast is observed by the
Mohammedan inhabitants of India,
in which the origin of the custom
known as painting the town red
may possibly be traced.
1t is called the Holi and consists
chiefly in the plentiful sprinkling
upon all and sundry of a certain red
preparation called Holt powder. 1t
stains the white clothes Of the ma
tives with an ugly, dirty looking
red that oonjures up before timid
eyes dread visions of bloody fights
and CHASTITY mutinies.
The powder is made in two shades
the one vermilion, the other rose
red-and both are used impartially
by the observers of the ceremony,
who delight in bedaubing their faces
with the powders until they look
like strange and hideous denizens of
hades come up, still glowing with
the fires of that region: Among the
better classes this festival is falling
into disfavor, for it leads to many
unpleasant excuses and had its or

scene in ancient heather history
