A TRIFLE GH-FLAvoRED.

| A Mexican Dish Tasted for the First
 and Last Time by a Man from the
 States.
 "The tobasco sauce incident which l plays such an important role in the Booz investigation reminds me of a
 very narrowing experience of my own in
 old Mexico" said a New Orleans rail-
 road man.
 About ten years ago I went down over the Mexican Central to Chhauhua, and that being my first visit to the re- public everything was new and strange, 1 especially the cooking I had a letter
 of introduction to the commandante of the city, who proved to be courtly, 1 superb looking old gentleman, and he | immediately made preparations to give dinner in my honor at his residence the following afternoon. I was little embarrassed at so much attention, but at the same time I was anxious to get a glimpse of native social life, and when I put in an appearance I found a really
 brilliant assemblage, composed of the
 principal personages of the place. I was
 duly presented all around and after a
 llllle ctISlHOUluuS CUINtISdliOu we lQDh
 our seats at the table, my own place be-
 ing between my host and his beautiful
 eldest daughter
 '"The dinner was excellent and every
 thing passed off smoothly until about
 the middle of the repast, when the com-
 mandante remarked that he was about
 to invite my attention to eharacteris- tic Mexican dish, which he had ordered his cook to prepare for my particular delectation It is local version of hili-colorow.' he said, and while it's trife high favored I will guarantee that you find it delicious At the same mo- ment the delicacy made it's appearance. It was brick-red in color and had the general aspect of a thick vegetable stew. Seeing that I was a bit timid the beau tiful senorita at my side helped herself to portion and smilingy swallowed a liberal spoonful. That dissipated my fears, and without any further hesita- tion I proceeded to follow her example.
 ITO fully describe what happened next would need an accomplished lin- gust You couldn't possibly do it jus tice in one tongue. I felt as if I had bolted a quart of red-hot carpet tacks! The roof of my mouth shrivelled like a collapsed balloon! Tears ran down my cheeks like rain! I couldn't breathe; I leaped to my feet, gurgling horribly, and rushed around the room looking for water, which is the last thing in the world you will find on a Mexican table. The guests shrank back in terror, sup posing I had gone suddenly mad, and m st of the ladies went off into violent mysteries; but the courtly commandante ran after me and seized me by the fly ing tails of my coat. Then he held open my jaws while his beauteous daughter poured a cruet of olive oil into my sig zling gullet That relieved me, but the episode broke up the banquet and I dare say it is still stock story in the best circles of Chihuahua society. I left early next morning and have never been back It is black spot in my

That fire Insurance will soon bc written for property owners of skagwny. at vep reasonable rates. seems very certain Go be- accomplished before many weeks pass
 For over a week there has been In skagway an agent for one Of the largest md oldest fire insurance houses in the United States. He has been quietly sizing up the risks and in general making reg ular experts report Co his company.
 For the present the agent does not want his name or that of his company mon- toned. for obvious reasons. but that mat tcrs are shaping themselves satlsfactor-
 ly ls a foregone conclusion.
 In talking with an Alaskan representa- tive last night the agent said:
 "For sometime our company has had nn eye on skagway. From various sources ] have made a very good report on Che Gre record of the city. In com. parison with other places Of like situa- tlon slagway leads them all. There is no use In my giving you your own fire rec ord for you know it yourself This one thing enters Into the possibility of our company entering this field.
 Another thing | have reported on is your chimney ordinances ! have. un- known Go several councilmon. asked them If this ordinance was going Co hc onforc- cd this winter and have received an ans- wer In Che affirmative. If brick chimncys are used the risk falls many per cent.
 ''As a rule ! have noticed that thc cit- Izens are very careful regarding possible chances Of fire. Each house wife. ] have observed. makes it matter of policy Co watch out for anything that may cause a blaze.
 "T'he only objectionable thing have experienced so far is this wind In win fer. especially during storm. when the streets are rendered difficult Of on ac- count of snow should n fire break out it would be much harder Co get Co the blaze and extlngulsh it because the wind drifts the snow and impcdcs progress. bee licvc. though. with the record of past winters. | can make a report that will prove most satisfactory Co my company and sincerely hope ! win soon be back here Co make out insurance policies hy Che wholesale. at rates lower than ever before offered
