IN WRATH OVER POOR SHOW
Mexican Audiences Evidently Lack
Patience Of Americans.

Here is q news item the like Of
which one does not find in the news
papers of the United States. 1t comes
from the City of Mexico and describes
the exciting incident at Queretaro:
Yesterdays bullfight," the reader
is informed, was wretched, and start
ed row. The management announced
that the bulls would be first-class, but
those which appeared were very small
and showed no fight whatever. Four
OF these ridiculous beasts were sent
back to the corral. another barely
qualified, and only one turned. out to
be a real bull.
"The public, unable to repress its
indignation, laid hold of everything 1t
could get its hands on and threw 1t
into the bull ring, causing serious
damage.
Tn the midst of the excitement the
announcement was made that the
management had been fined 500, but
this was not sufficient to allay the
public indignation. The manager of
the bull ring was compelled to hide
owing to the fact that some of the
most excited individuals in the audi
ence were making diligent search
for him.
'It was tremendous row, as we re-
marked before, and would have had
more serious consequences had not
the Fifth corps of rural police ar
rived on the scene most OPPORTUNITY.
The policemen made the discontented
audience dispense, and then mounted
guard over the bull ring and the resi-
dence Of the manager"

EMERsoN's MEMORY AT FAULT.
Had at Times Almost Entire Lack
Of Remembrance.

Emerson was notable sufferer
from the vagaries of memory. His BIZ
ographer relates that he met him one
day in Boston, apparently at loss for
something, and asked him where he
was going. ITO dine" said Emerson,
with very old and dear friend. l
know where she lives, but hope she
won't ask me her name" and then he
proceeded to describe her as the
mother of the wife of the young man
the tall man-who speaks so well"
and so on, until. his interlocutor
guessed to whom he was referring.
Even the names of common objects
often failed him completely. On one
occasion, when he wanted an umbrel-
la, he said: 81 can't tell its name, but
1 can tell its history. Strangers take
It away"
This failing of Emerson led to a
pathetic scene when he attended
Longfellow's funeral, and remarked as
he gazed at the coffin: HE was a
sweet and beautiful soul; but I have
entirely forgotten his name"

Dous 70 Match,

The late dowager empress Of China

For the color, let it be like that Of a

striped like a dragon, so that there

FEW WORDS, BUT TO THE POINT.
Elder Evidently Meant There Should
Be No Misunderstanding.

Last summer the congregation Of a
little kirk in the Highlands Of Scotland
was greatly disturbed and mystifed by
the appearance in its midst Of an Eng
lsh lady who made use of an ear trum-
pet during the sermon-such an in
strument being entirely unknown in
those simple parts.
There was much discussion Of the
matter, and it was finally decided that
one of the elders-who had great 10
cal reputation as man Of parts
should be deputed to settle the ques-
ton.
On the next Sabbath the uncon-
scious offender again made her ap-
pearance and again produced the trum-
pet, whereupon the chosen elder rose
from his seat and marched down the
aisle to where the old lady sat, and,
entreating her with an appraised finger,
said. sternly:

CHANCE FOR SETTLEMENT GONE
5asso Might Have Decided Vexed
Question, But He Didn't.

The choir began the hymn. When
they came to the line: Neither are
they afraid" the composer Of the
music had so written 1t that 1t had to
be repeated first by the soprano, then
by the alto. and finally by the bass.
The soprano seemed to be Of conserva-
tive taste and sang the line: "Nee-ther
are they afraid" Apparently the alto
had departed from the usage Of her
forefathers, for when she brought out
the words they became ''Ni-ther are
they afraid" and it became a serious
question which side the bass would
take The bass was an Irishman. Out
rolled his rich voice: 'Nay-ther are
they afraid
So the question Of usage still re-
manned unsettled.

LoNpoN's WEALTH AND POVERTY
Sad Extremes That Prevail In the
Worlds Richest City.

The London county council, accord
ing to yearly custom, has Just pub
lished some suggestive statistics. In
them the British capital is put down
as probably the wealthiest city in the
world. Its property is insured against
fire for about six billions of dollars.
1t takes about AIS, O37 tons Of killed
meat and 5S,735 live cattle, 375,95O
sheep, 1882 tons Of fish and $685.
$50 gallons Of milk to feed the popula-
ton, which uses S2,152, 249, 900 gallons
Of water for drinking and other pur-
poses.
But besides being the "wealthiest,"
London is also, to use a word made
famous by Bernard Shaw, the ill
thiest." Of the 4,795,7S9 human be-
ings that live on its 1876 acres of
land and water, 1,453,266, or one in
every 80. are paupers. But more ap-
palling still is the fact that 20 per-
sons in every 100 die in an almshouse
or almshouse inirmary. No wonder
