removed into another building and
very nice rooms have taken it's
place. A porch on it's west side
and other Improvements add great
ly to its appearance.
Mr.. and Mrs. E. w. Davis have
gone to Ogden, Utah, Mrs. Davis

cry, building for which was started
here by Mr.. Davis, appears to be

of finishing it and turning it into
cheese factory.
Several loads of furniture have
been received by G. w. Blackwell
for the rooms in his new building,
which are now being furnished and
made ready for the accommodate
of visitors. The bar on the ground
floor is nicely fitted up and furnish
ed and is big improvement over
the old affair.
The new illustrated folders got
ten out for the Long Valley Real
Estate agency are very neat piece
of work. They contain good des-
cription of the valley and it's re-
sources and nothing is exaggerated.
The half tone pictures show up
beautiful and clear. Get one and
send it to your distant friends.
Considerable cleaning up has
been done on the south shore of
the lake. The old unsightly noun
tain of sawdust that stood on the
old mill site has been cleared away,
also the ramshackle merry-go-round
which stood near it. Second street
of Mccall townsite is being nicely
graded and other improvements
are being made that will make the
place more attractive.

ing a great interest in the valley.
Fred Williams and the black
smith, John Atkinson, are building
a 2O-passenger stage for the Beggs
company to be used on the line
between Evergreen and Meadows.
1t is being built very strong and
will require from six to eight horses

MARRIAGE IN MEXICO.

How the Engagement and Wedding
Ceremonies Are Celebrated.
The Mexican people are hospitable to
a fault, always welcoming their friends
even though they have not enough to
eat themselves. And they religiously
visit the sick, including those who
have contagious diseases. They are al
so addicted to public social functions,
the invariable mode of entertainment
being h dance. They are fond of mu-
sic, though not proficient In the art Of
making it, probably more from lack of
opportunity than from lack of capac-
ity. The violin and guitar are the usual
instruments Of music, the repertory of
the local musicians being usually lin
tied to a few tunes which are In equal
demand for the dance and for the fu-
neral.
One Of the most interesting and beau
tiful of the social functions Is the prem
dorio. When a young man wishes to
marry he asks for the girl Of his choice
Of the parents, not Of the girl herself,
and IL she is given the prendorio at

and demonstrations of Joy. The bride
and bridegroom are publicly presented
to their future parents-in-law, after
which the company pass In procession
In front Of the couple, each one drop
ping a piece Of money into the hands
Of the bride. Then follows the inevita-
BILE dance. This public betrothal is con
sidered almost as binding as marriage,
and l have heard of but one instance
in which the compact vas not kept. the
%recreant bridegroom in that case being
visited with ostracism. The betrothal
is usually followed by marriage just as
soon as the services of the priest can
be secured. The marriage ceremony is
followed by a feast more notable for
the abundance Of things to drink than
for things to eat and by the usual
dance. Indeed the festivities are often
prolonged for several nights after the

Companies, Liable for Mill
ions, in Shaky Condition,

Victoria. B, c., Sept, 1.-THE
steamer Shawmut. which arrived last
night from Manila via Japan and
China, brought further news of the
great fire in Hakodate. II seems the
big conflagration originated in a soap
factory near the Higashigawa school,
and spread with great rapidity, sweep
ing away hundreds of bamboo houses.
During the fire powder magazine
at Kishimachi exploded, involving
great loss of life. In all, 800 lives
were lost during the fire, and $4,000
houses were burned. A strong wind
famed the fire, which spread with
great rapidity. All the foreign con-
sulates. administrative offices, banks,
company offices, schools, theaters, etc,
were burned. with the exception Of
the American consulate, the court
house, railway station and custom
house.
One steamer, the Nanaye Maru,
was burned and sank in the .harbor,
after breaking from her rnoorings. Ten
large junks filed with coal were also
burned. Loss of insurance liabilities
carried by the eight japanese com
panies amounts to 100000 yen. The
Toxic press speaks in a pessimistic
vein OF the obligations OF the tnsur-
ance companies, some of which are
liable for more than their paid up cap
