MExIcANs in TEXAS SCHOOLS.
Children Of Wealthy FomiIies Educa at
ed In San Antonio.

Ten carloads Of school children from
Mexico have arrived in this city since
the influx began about two weeks ago,
says the San Antonio Express.
Scores of them we're accompanied
nv their parents, and the hotels uf the
city have been indebted, in no small
degree, to this class of visitors for the
brisk conditions which have been ex-
perenced by them during the last sew
eral weeks
Many OF the children travelled from
their disfaLt homes alone or in pairs
or trios, while It was no uncommon
sight 10 see parties of nine or ten
from the same localities across the
Rio Grande at the various hotels.
Nearly all the school equipment and
wearing apparel for the entire year are
purchased for these children here in
San Antonio before they enter their
respective schools, and the CONNER.
cial Importance of their annual visit
can easily be imagined.
Their parents, too, before returning
home, spend several days in the city,
purchasing large quantities of Ameri'
can goods to take back with them to
Mexico, and as the majority Of them
are persons of great wealth and social
position at home, their expenditures
amount to thousands OF dollars.
OF all the children from Mexico who
are educated in the United States the
schools of San Antonio secure over
20. per cent. Not only on account of
the proximity of the city to the Dor
der, but also because OF the general
excellence. of the schools and the
healthiul climate and surroundings ex
perienced here. San Antonio has al
ways been the favorite place with the
Mexicans for their children to obtain
an English education.

Mary Church Terrell, president OF the
National Association OF Colored Wo-
men, delivered furious invectiye
against the people OF the south before
the purity congress here last night.
No servant girl is safe IN the homes
of the white people, she declared, and
no mother who considered her daugh-
ter's honor would allow her 10 become
a servant without first requiring refer
ences. She declared that all the states
of the south had plotted 70 shut out
the children OF the blacks from an
education, and that the courts had
refused to protect the colored women.
