Mexican Church Legends.

Queretaro was a town before the
Spanish conquest and was made a city
in 1856. A legend Of Queretaro is that
an Otomite chief, Fernando de Tapia
by name. undertook to convert the city
to Christianity in a way that seems
novel to us, but was common enough
to his day. He came from Tula with
q challenge to the people Of Queretaro
to a fair stand up fight. If he won, the
people surviving were to be baptized.
The challenge was accepted, but while
the fight was in progress a dark cloud
came up and the blessed Santiago was
seer in the heavens with a fiery cross,
whereupon the people of Queretaro
gave up and were baptized. They set
up a stone cross to commemorate the
event on the site Of the present church
Of Santa Cruz. There Is scarcely q
church in Mexico which has not q leg
end of this kind attached to it.

Spain and the Peculiar Temperament
Of It's People.
If I were asked to sum up the domi-
nant impression that the survival In
Spain Of the old world mediaevalism
makes, I should say that Spain is in
the precise and specific Of the
word the home Of romance. The spe.
cial character of the Spanish tempera-
ment and Of Spanish developments in
literature and in art is marked by a
quality, rising and sinking with the
rise and fall of Gothic, which we call
the romantic spirit-a mixture, that Ia.
Of the mysterious and grandiose with
the grotesquely bizarre Of the soaringly
ideal with the crudely real, a mixture
which to us today has the cunning fas.
cination Of art, but was really on both
aides the natural outcome Of the ex-
periences and feelings OF the men who
created 1t. This romantic spirit waa
once the common possession of all

ment peculiarly lent itself to the 10
mantle attitude, and It 10 In Spain to

THE HOUSE OF

A Member May Drink There, but IL
Not Allowed to Eat.
The British house of commons has
its own code In regard to the partak-
ing Of liquid and solid refreshments.
A member making a long speech may
take a drink, and the house is liberal
enough not to care whether the color
Of the contents Of the glass is white or
brown or black, whether, in fact, the
glass holds water or whisky or beer.
Mr.. Gladstone's egg fips, which his
wife carefully compounded for him
and he brought to the house In a bot
tie, are classic.
But woe betide the man who scorns
drink and must have meat. Contempt
rary recollection only recalls n mem
Der rash enough to disregard this rule
It was a number of years ago, In the
stormy time Of the home rule debates,
that an Irish member, in the small
hours Of the morning, produced from
his pocket a paper bag and drew out q
bun, which he proceeded calmly to
eat. The house was instantly In an
uproar. There were loud cries of "Or
der! Order!" and that bun was never
finished.
No member may read q newspaper

A NEW BRAND RECORD.

SAN FRANCISCO, July l9.-When
court was called to order in the Louis
Glass bribery case before Judge Lawlor
this morning, both sides appeared with
a renewed supply OF law reports and
books stacked upon the counsel table,
as in all probability the arguments
would consume the entire morning ses-
sion
Mr.. Delmas continued his argument
as to the admissibility Of certain evil
dence to the jury. Mr.. Delmas' conten-
tion was that evidence tending to show
that corrupt relations existed between
T. v. Halsey, former agent for the Pa
cific States Telephone 4 Telegraph Co.,
and Supervisor Lonergan is not admis-
sible, inasmuch as Mr.. Glass could not
be held responsible for the actions of
Halsey and that such evidence if sub
mitted to the jury. would be of dam
gerous and misleading character, /
In the course Of his plea in support
Of the admissihility of evidence Of
similar offenses," Heney turned loose
the vials Of yituperation on Delmas.
Seldom, If ever, in the courts of San
Francisco in the presence Of . jury
has So bitter denunciation been ais
rected by one attorney against an
other. In one breath Heney sarcasti-
cally pointed out Delmas as would
be" Napoleon of the bar, and in the
next breath he lleaped to the other ex-
trems Of metaphor and iikened the lead
er Of the Thaw defense to rhinoceros,
whose hide is so thick that the blush of
innocence cannot rise to the surface.
When the passionate echoes Of the as
sistant district attorneys voice had died
away in the synagogue, Delmas rose to
reply
= Heney he described as 'human
bloodhound filed with the lust Of prose-
cution, obsessed with the desire to in
tlict pain.'
AT another point, Delmas said, his
fervent voice ringing in the far corners
of the room:
'I thank God that / am still able to
travel up and down in the country
without the protection of body guards"
"I'm not afraid of you cried Heney.
"No.' answered Delmas, "the learned
gentleman from Arizona has still an
engagement to keep with Mr. H. w.
Met.on. There he can perhaps satisfy
his lust for encounter without having
recourse to one twice his age"
