WOMEN IN v Z RINGS.
Three Females Who Butcher Bulls to
Anuse the Spaniards.

American women would find it Diff
cult to imagine one of their sex in the
arena where bulls are butchered to
make a Spanish holiday, but such there
are. Three pets of the bull-ring in
Spain are wOmen-Onc a Spaniard, tho
other two Germans. Donna PiedrOs,
the Spaniard, is n matador, the others
are toreadors. 1t is the duty of Donna
Piedros to finish the fierce brute after
the others. She is a handsome woman
of 233. and has been in the bull-ring
since she was IL. When first she made
known her intention of entering the
arena there was n howl of protest, but
she persisted, and when she made her
first appearance she was showercd
with flowers. Since then she has been
in the ring once every month, and or
several occasions has been more or less
injured. Great danger is incurred by
matadors when giving the quietus to
a bull, because the savage brute gencr-
ally makes Il last desperate rally. In
this way Donna PiedrOs has been face
to face with death more than once.
Her two competitors are the Pretel
sisters, Lola and Angelica. Pretty
blondes, scarcely out of their teens,
they are brilliant and daring riders.
Their exploits in the bull-rings have
been the themes of Spanish poets, they
are the pets of the populace, and for
their achievements in the arena they
receive great financial reward. They
were originally circus riders. Their
manager. being struck with their
equestrian ability, determined to make
bull-fighters of them. lie took them
to Seville. where there is Il school de.

Novel Small Change.

A very interesting report on the trade
OF Ads Abbaba. Abyssinia, compiled
by Mr.. Rennell Rodd, has just been
issued by the foreign Office.
The products exported from that part
of the country are gold, ivory, civet
wax and coffee. The market for the
two former is largely controlled by
the Emperor Menelik. who receives
his tribute in this form. This partial
monopoly and the competition of mel.
chants importing goods from the coas,
to obtain gold to send back have driven
up the value, and gold has nearly dou-
bled in price since last year. The value
of ivory has also advanced.
Dealing with weights and currcncies,
Mr.. Rodd adds that it is remarkable
that the prestige of the Emperor Meme
lik has not succeeded in popularizing
the new dollar stamped with his head.
The only small change for the dollar
consists either of rifle cartridges or Of
pieces of rock salt some eight inches
long, tapcring to either end, and about
two inches broad in the thickest part.
Cartridges have come into use as small
change Of recent years, but they are
easily tempered with, charcoal being
substituted for the powder, and are,
therefore, an unsatisfactory medium Of
exchange.-LOndOn Mail.
