SPANISH WEDDING DANCE.
Music and Attendants-The Dress of
Women md Men.
(THE END.)

Music and Attendants-The Dress of
Women and Men.
The wedding dance was being held
in a long, narrow building near foun-
tain, and we entered on smooth earth
floor; seats were ranged about the sides
of the whitewashed room and the low
rafters were draped and festooned with
fancy wall paper with gold scrolls in it.
The music was furnished by a piano
organ at one end of the long room,
turned In rotation by a number Of
boys in their clean, blue blouses and
brown corduroy breaches, who felt
their Importance, and at the other end
of the room a table was spread with
cakes and bread and a wine connection
very sweet and pleasant, but seductive,
The women, some bringing their
babies, were a pleasant set, but not
beautiful, although a few, with their
large dark eyes, came very near to it.
They did not wear the gay costumes
Of my Imagination, but their dresses
showed great care and conscientious
patching. A gay handkerchief was
often folded around the neck and
across the breast and large earrings
and big breastpins were the vogue even
among the young women.
The men wore broad bTimmed black
felt hats and clean blue blouses, cor
duroy trousers, either light tan or
brown, and the long red or black sash
belt called "faja," wound many times
about the waist, the folds serving as
pockets for cigarettes. tobacco pouch
and the villainous knife that everyone
carries.
The dances were round" inter
spersed with a square dance, where
four people comprised a set-a sort Of
fandango, with lots of stamping and
attempts at 1.-the, serpentine motions,
with the hands raised above the head.
There was a very old man who danced
with great gusto and amused the crowd
of young people, who encouraged him
with clapping of hands.-Scribner's
Magazine.
