SONORA SETTINGS.

At Hermosillo MT. c. Monteyerde opened upon the l4th inst, chop house and bar room upon the Ameri- can plan, which fills long felt want in the Sonora capital. It is situated upon Gales Tampico and Comercio and extends through from one street to the other. Everything is in the American style, and the Cells broth CTS, Enrique and Rafael, well known in Nogales, are cooks and caterers. The place is known as "Al Rayo x" (to the X Ray and is good place to go and get fine meal.
 At Hermosillo the old, long estab' lished house of R. Ruiz, continues to lead the procession of great mercan- tile houses in Sonora. MT. Ruiz has been in business in Sonora many years, and commands a wide confidence and flattering standing. He is ably assist ed in the conduct of his extensive business by his son Rafael J Ruiz, and the house commands trade co.exten- sive with the Pacific coast of Mexlco. Their heavy and extensive stock of dry goods, groceries, etc, Is one of the largest and best selected in Mexico, and customers can always count up the utmost fairness in dealing.
 Mr. Frank Manni0n, well known in Nogales, where he resided several years and served as constable, and has been employed number of years running pump at Posa de Petalla, which has now been taken away since completion of the new water system from San Jose de Pimas, has moved a bunch of cattle he had grazing about Posa de Petalla, over to Las Norias de Roma, about half way between La Colorado and Hermosillo, where he has secured fine pasturage and an abundance of water. He has leased good range for a period of twenty years, and has tiue start in the cat tie business.
 The ammmoth mercantile establish ment of MarbuIg X Li1ers RI Globo at iIermOsillo, recently opened in new quarters, is one of the mos ex- tensive and attractive in all Mexico. The building, which has a front of more than one hundred feet on Calle Hidalgo, extends through the block to the next street, and is admirably arranged for the dispatch of business. The office of the firm and the retail department face the street. lm- mediately behind are the wholesale departments, several large rooms the shelves filled with goods, and beyond are the warehouses, filled also with bales and boxes of goods, awaiting un- packing Upon one side of the great space is the clothing factory, which is moving in this week. More than one hundred sewing machines, run by gasoline engine, will be kept constant ly at work. It is tremendous es- tablishment.

PANIC IN BATTLE

 recent battles between the Boers and British are very humiliating to the we'll wishers of the British army, and seem fully as needless and unnecessary as that which siezed the raw levies of the federal army at the battle of Bull Run in
 1861. The record made by the British regiments is far more humi- Hating, for they are traiued veterans, with experience in many wars, and regimental and brig sade prestige coming down through several gene rations of fighting soldiers, while the American soldiers of 1861 were raw volunteers, new to war and without valiant record to main tain. Later on the troops who ran so nimbly at the beginning of the American civil war rdeemed them selves by steadiness and courage in many of the most sanguinary ba'- ties ever recorded in history.
 The accounts comming in state that in one of the recent battles the Highland brigade, an organization with a glorious fame from former wars, broke and ran from the field with a loss of only ffty.seven men. Their officers rallied them, and they broke and ran a second time
 Another rally was effected and a third disgraceful panic siezed the command and the men went to the rear, so thoroughly demoralized, says the printed account, that "they were unfit to guard the baggage train" Something must be radio ally wrong when such exhibitions so humiliating can be made. Con- trast with this the record made by an Ohio brigade of three regiments, at the battle of Mcdowell in West Virginia, in 1862. This brigade was sent to take by assault strong Confederate position. It entered the assault with au effective force of seventeen hundred and fifty seven men. In the charge the brigade lost four hundred and fifty-seven men. But it carried the position assailed. The men ran, but they ran toward the enemy. In the bat tie of the wilderness two New York heavy artillery regiments went into the fight each eighteen hundred strong. At the end of two days fighting they had lost in killed and wounded more than thirteen hun dred men each. But both regiments were still in the line of battle and went in at Cold Harbor a day or two later as brave as if marching in review. One regiment in the Con- federate army, the Twelfth Georgia, made a charge into which went nearly one thousand men, and but one hundred and forty-six, com manded by captain and two lieu tenants, came out unhurt. More than thirty officers and eight hund- red men lay dead or wounded on the hillside down which they charged. And whose soul does not always thrill with hearing or reading the account of Picketts famous charge at Gettysburg? It was we'll nigh successful; and a most heroic brigade wa. literally cut in pieces.

Put half pound of flour which has
pastry board and place in the middle of
it three ounces of butter and three
ounces of lard which have been pressed
together Then with knife cut up the
butter while mixing it with the flour;
make a hole in the middle and pour in
a little cold water and mix it gradually
with the flour and butter, using the
point of the knife for the purpose; then
add a little more water in the same way
and stir until a fairly soft paste is
formed.
Flour the board and rolling pin and
roll out the paste; fold it over in half,
keeping the rough edges nearest to you,
and roll it out and fold it again. This
must be done four times in all, and the
last time it should be rolled out thinly
into a long strip. Cut the latter into
pieces about three inches square, brush
them over lightly with some white of
egg and spread some apricot jam over
them. Then roll them UP to form the
puffs, taking care to moisten the edges
and press them together so that the
shape may be retained.
Have ready a stewpan containing
pan to the hottest part of the stove, and
when the fat has ceased to frizzle and
smoke begins to rise from it carefully
slip in as many of the puffs as can be
conveniently cooked at one time and
leave them in the fat until they are
a golden brown. Drain them on paper
in q cool oven and serve them piled UP
on a dolly with some powdered sugar
sprinkled over them.

skirt were laid in narrow lines and
were fiattened down by rows of silk
stitching. A collar and short vest of
silk on the bodice were closed by row
of tiny gold and pearl buttons. The
lower part of the skirt f1ared broadly
owing to the loose arrangement of the
plaits and gave to the skirt that bell
shape so much admired in the outline OF
skirts of the moment.
