The Natives of That Country Are Far Be-
hind Us In Their Ideas.
We have been under the impression
that the land of darl1-eyed hidalgoes.
with their wide sombreros and short
jackets and gorgeous silver sashes, the
land of beautiful women with graceful
lace mantillas, swarthy skins and mid
night eyes, was making rapid progress,
but this opinion will have to be
amended, says Texas Sftings.
1t is true that the wealthier class
have discarded the bright-hued serape
and adopted the unpicturesque habili-
ments of the gringo. 1t is also fact
that in the City of Mexico the names
of the streets have been changed FROM
the political, or intensely religious, to
nomenclature the most prosaic. For
example: 1.-THE Street of the Sad In
diam and "Crown of Thorns street.
are now respectively Fourth avenue"
and "Diaz street."
These and other changes led us to
infer that Mexico was rapidly becom-
ing ''gringoized," but this delusion is
knocked endwise by the following
item:
"A reIudrRdDIe case is De1nP urleQ IN
the courts here. A short time ago
small weekly newspaper by the name
of Ell Periq uito published in its col
umns an advertisement of business
house. Another firm in the business
has sued the paper for damages, alleg-
ing that they have suffered loss
through the publication of the adver-
tisement of their rival. The case is
attracting considerable attention, as it
is the first of its kind in Mexico
In our own country the man who
does not advertise is regarded as fit
subject for the undertaken or the luna
tic asylum.
1t is strange that the Mexicans
should be so slow to recognize the ad- |
vantages of advertising. There is no
class of industrious citizens who can |
not profit by advertising. For in
stance, a burglar overlooked eighty |
dollars in a bureau drawer, and the To- |
sal papers so announced. He returned |
the next night and not only secured it !
but an almost new suit of clothes be- I

a Challenge of the Giants.

This mornings bulletin announces
that Fitzsimmons has agreed to meet
either Kid Mccoy or Corbett, and the
sporting world and lovers of the manly
art now look forward with joy at the
prospect of another struggle between
formidable scrappers.
This is year of struggle composed
of war, prize fights, attempts to reach
Klondike, exploration to the North
pole, and in fact anything to attract
public attention. One citizen of our
town has been attracting the attention
of the people for the last few weeks by
continually entering the ring with Mr..
High Price and the contest has been
so much one sided in favor of High
Prices antagonist tha every time the
two meet no High Price money can
be found at any odds. Dad Butts is
ready at this time to eet High Price
or anyone else thai gets into their
head that they have bargains in real
estate which can compare with his

the dark red shell began to run away
from Yale. When the ~ mile flag was
reached, Harvards position, barring ac-
cident, had been determined, and tho
crimson was evidently destined to eros

tinued to gain, and at the end of tho
second mile plenty of blue water was
discernible between the Cornell and Yale
boats.
From this point on Cornell gave an
exhibition Of rowing never paralleled OIL
the American Thames. She lowered her
stroke and pulled a measured 80 to thu

fiercely, but the shell did not respond,
and Cornell crept away. With Harvard
1t was the same old story, and the GRIM

sent their stroke up three points and
their shell began to close up the gap
between Yale and Cornell. The latte,
did not undertake to respond to thu
squirt, and 1t was unnecessary. Cor
nelPs rowing was as clean as whistle
and her boat travelled at a pace which
was marvellous. considering the slow
stroke. During the Yale squirt the blu
crew lost something of their finish and
workmanship, and in the waist Of the
boat there was a splashng.
In addition to this the shell at times
