The Rainbow Party.

The latest fad is the rainbow party,
which derives its name from the fact
that the girls wear pretty aprons of ev-
cry shade and hue which their good or
bad taste may suggest, all of which are
left unhemmed. Every girl has num-
Der, and two of them take charge of a
box containing duplicates which is
placed near the cloakroom and from
which the men, having previously
bought tickets, draw number, armed
with which they set forth on a voyage
of discovery to find the young lady
wearing the corresponding one on. her
apron,
When all have found their partners,
the master of the ceremonies proclaims
the conditions-namely, that the young
men are to set about hemming the
aprons, the one acquitting himself the
best gaining the prize. The girls supply
the cavaliers with needles and thread,
and at the call of .'Time!" the fun be-
gins with the efforts of the poor fellows
to thread their needles. At the second
call of "Timev" the work is handed in to
the committee, which passes Judgment
upon it and awards the prizes, which
sometimes are of great value to the VIC
tors, after which the aprons are raffied
for, and the party winds up with a
dainty little supper.

at home and help with the houseworls
until they went TO preside over homes

thing of a slur to say that a mans
daughters were obliged to go out to
work. Nowadays this sentiment is re-
versed. \ business training is as much
matter of course for the daughters as
for the sons. And no one is surprised
when the daughters prefer putting the

+ Bull fights seem TO be declining says
the Mexican Herald. Yesterday the
tourist elemect must have made up 10
per cent of the attendance in the
shade. It has been recognized that
there is no public for two Sunday bull
fights, SO that it is announced tn at the
fights will occur at Bucareli and Tacu-
baya on alternate Sundays. The en-
thusiasm of the public for the ball
games is chiefly responsible for the
waning of the bull-fght in popular
favor. What a change fr, m the times
when the Paseo and Colon rings were
crowded Sunday after Sunday with a
wealth and fashion of Mexico and the
double line Of carriages with liveried
footmen, waiting for their owners out
side the rings, stretched far down the
Paseo. These were the palmy days of
bull fighting in Mexico. 1t was then
that Mazzantini came here, departing
first in anger and shaking the dust off
his feet, even under police protection,
