piled No sabe. but he took my dollar
and in l went. Inside ! found big
ring, something like a circus, and ex-
tending up from 1t several rows of stone
seats. Filling them were several hum
bred Mexicans, both male and female, in
multi-colored attire. BY and by a bull
came snorting and paving into the ring
followed by two matadors on old rickety
horses that looked though they did not
have enough strength to walk across the
ring. The matadors stuck the bull with
their lances, amid yells of delight from
the Mexican populace and the throwing
OF small coin. Becoming more enraged,
the bull chased to the fence one of the
old plugs and gored him. The poor old
beast had white rag tied over his eyes
and could protect himself I'm no way.
The matador escaped. AT last the mata-
doris succeeded In killing the bull by
plungng a sword In the back of his head.

THAT POOR sExTETTE.
Every Show Girl After Notorety
Claims to Have Been In 1t.

New York Cor st. Joseph News-Press
Florence Evelyn Nesbit Thaw is now
being mentioned as member of the now
worldfamous original "F'lorodora' sex
tette The statement that she was one
of the six is an error.
IF there had been six times six girls
in the original 'Florodora' sextette," said
John c. Fisher, the producer of "Floro-
DORA" today the number would not be
half large enough to account for the
girls whom press agents and newspaper
mon have declared were members of the
original six. Every show girl who at
tained notoriety, enviable or otherwise
is branded a member of the Original
"Florodora" sextette.
.sNan Patterson was one of these yet
she never saw the original six. Mabelle
Gilman ditto. And so on a score Of
others. As a matter of fact, the six girls
Vaughn Texsmith. Marporie Relyea Ag-
mes Wayburn and Daisy Green Most Of
them married well. and they are now
out of the profession. Not a one Of
them ever did anything to cause unen-
viable notoriety.
AS for Evelyn Nesbit, I remember
her very well. She was one of the most
graceful and beautiful girls on the stage,
and secured her position in the Floro-
dora company through the friendship Of
Stanford White and George w. Lederer
the manager of the show at that time
She was kept out of the sextette, how
ever by her dimlnutive size.

Army Secret Service.

From the Youths Companion.
Toward the end of the civil war the
value of wel-organized scout service
came to be fully appreciated by the
leaders of both armies. Perhaps no
commanders of modern times were bet
ter served in this respect than Cen
eral Grant and General Lee. Both were
kept informed daily as to nearly every
thing that went on within the enemy's
lines
General Gordon relates that one
morning toward the end of the long
conflict, when the Confederates, Off
GERS and men alike. were reduced to
unpleasant straits for food, a captain
from the union headquarters went, I'M
der flag of truce. with communica-
ton to General Lee concerning the
exchange of prisoners.

a smile, after delivering his message,

compliments, and bids me assure you
that he knows exactly what you had
for breakfast this morning"
General Grant must be misinformed
as to this replied General Lee, sur
veying the message bearer, with a sad
smile. General Grant is a generous
man; and if he had known with what
breakfast | had to content myself he
would certainly have sent me half of
his. Give him my compliments" he
continued, with sudden twinkle, 'and
