HOW LOVE is MADE IN MEXICO.
Young Men and Women Rarely Meet
Only in Presence of Girls Relatives.

Young Men and Women Rarely Meet,
Only in Presence of Girl's Relatives.
Sonora Adelaide Vasquez Schiaffino,
a Mexican woman, in paper in the
Woman's Home Companion, entitled
1.-THE Social Sphere of Mexican Wom-
en-" writes as follows of courtship be-
yond the Rio Grande:
"a Mexican girl realizes she Is a miss
of some importance when she has at
tracted the attention of would-be cav
alier, who has seen her at mass or dur
ing promenade on the plaza. Without
the formality of an Introduction he dis
patches letters glowing with words or
admiration and devotion, and nervously
awaits reply. In the meantime he
visits the locality of her home, hoping
to catch sight of the object of his ad-
miration at the balcony or as she
energies from the house to attend
church. He patiently but persistently
promenades backward and forward in
the street, for custom forbids his en-
trance to the house, and Is happy If
favored with a glance from her lustrous
black eyes. No ridicule is strong
enough to dampen his ardor, and no
objections of irate parents sufficiently
powerful to subdue his passion.
Mexican lovers rarely meet, for even
If the young man is related to the fam
lily Of the young lady, and has been a
caller at the home, the mere fact of his
paying attention to her puts severe
restraint on his intercourse with the
family. After time, if things have
progressed favorably, he is admitted
as an accepted sutton, and Is received
by the girl always accompanied by her
mother, who usually does all the con-
versation. But love finds many forms
of expression, and stolen glances, never
suspected, speak volumes for the low
ers. AS the suit progresses many an
evening passes with the girl at the win
dow or balcony, and her lover in the
street below, wholly oblivious of the
passer-by or his naive or caustic re-
mark. The duration of a courtship de-
ponds upon the formality employed, the
means at command of the parties, and
their age. Consent for the marriage is
demanded from the parents of the girl
by the suitor's father, who Is accom-
panied by a priest, that the pledges ma >
be made the more binding"

French Colonists Promote Slavery

Boer ill-treatment of the native races
in South Africa has met with no con-
demnation, says the London Tele-
graph, and, after ALL there is nothing
very remarkable in this when the mat
ter is viewed by the light of the dis
closures just made by Jules Durand,
late deputy mayor of Noumea, in New
Caledonia. He states that the principal
firm of NOumea, even when they do not
go in themselves for slave-dealing, sell
the weapons required for the purpose.
When they perceive the luggers of sixty
tons burden landing at or near their
shores the natives hide in the brush
wood, but the dealers are cunning and
lure them out by plausible offers for
the purchase of provisions. Soon the
slaves are put on board. A few guns
have tempted the natives, and alcohol
has won the chief over to the cause of
civilization.

SIMS REEVES. lOSL Out little Oh us rare
quality up to a short time ago. Reeves
was born near London and early dis
played great musical talent Before he
was IA he could play on several musical
instruments, but nature had endowed
him with a magnificent voice which
needed but little training to bring out
its richness. He made his public APP
pearance in 1889 and met with imme-
date success. Later he studied under
French and Italian masters and while
in Milan he appeared in Lucia Lam
mermoor," his singing winning the
highest praise. He returned to his ma
tive land in 1S47 and was Immediately
recognized as England's leading tenor.
He never acquired the great fortune
that lay within his grasp and died in
comparative poverty. In 1895 he mar
ried Miss Luccomba, an opera singer,
and started on a singing tour Of Aus
tralia. He became bankrupt and was
recently granted a civil pension of $500
by Queen Victoria. which saved him
from utter restitution.
