PURPLE AND FINE LINEN.
Stephen Crane Analyses the
Mexican Dress.
SOME AMAZING SHIRTS
But the Hat Is the Growing
Glory Of Our Southern
Neighbors.
Copyright, 1861


The hat is the main strength of the true
Mexican dude. Upon these gorgeous SOM
Dreros The Mexican gentleman OF fashion
frequently spends sou or even 500. And
these splendid masses of gold braid and
pearl gray beaver surmount the average
masculine head with the sane artistic val
ue as would small tower of bricks. In
the first place. the true Mexican wears his
trousers very tight in the leg, and as his
legs are always small and wiry, he pro-
duces an effect OF instability. When you
see him crowned with one OF those great
peaked Sombrcros, you think he is likely to
fall down upon slight occasion.
This same gentleman may run to spurs q
good deal. There are for sale in the shops
in the City of Mexico silver spurs that weigh
couple of pounds each-immcnse things
that look more like rhinoceros traps than
spurs to urge on a horse. He may, too,
when he rides In the country, have n rair
Of elegantly decorated pistol hostlcrs at his
pom mel.
HIS SILVER BUTTONS.
A double row OF little silver buttons cx-
tend down each leg of his tight trousers
and IL is more than probable that his little
Jacket will be embroidered like mad. After
all this, he Will be seated upon saddle
that theSu!tan OF a thousand Turkeys would
never dare use for a foot stool. Mounted
then upon a charger that proceeds at Il
mincng. restrained gait down the avenue
crowded with fashionable carriages, he,
with his full chin, black mustache and
vaguely sinister eyes, is the true type Of
the Mexican caballero.
But, ON tile other hand. the true Mexi
can style has been combated subtly for
years by the ideas from America and from
Europe, which have flown into the country
In the rural districts the ca balero is still
supreme, but in the larger towns and in
the capital, the men Of the greatest wealth
and position always resemble the ordinary
type Of American men OF affairs. And the
younger generation, who are yet OF mind
to care for dress, study the fashions OF New
York and London with much diligence.
HERE HE CLASHES.
Here begins the conflict between the
