LAND OF THE sOMBRERO.

Every Mexican likes to have fine
hat or sombrero. These hats, with
high, pointed crowns and broad
brims, are sometimes made of costly
material and decorated with many
bands and buckles of gold and silver.
Then they weigh several pounds, and
cost, perhaps, two or three hundred
dollars. The plain sombreros are
worn by the poor Mexicans dwelling
in miserable huts in the country
places. Some of these one-roomed
homes are built of large, sun-dried
adobe bricks. To live in one of them
must seem like living in a box, for
each has fiat roof, dirt floor, no win
dows and but one door.
These country people take their
produce to market on their backs, or
in OK carts, which have wheels made
of solid wood. The wealthy people of
Mexico live in large beautiful homes.
Outside these buildings look rather
plain, but inside they are very rich.
Usually, in the centre of the house,
there is a lovely garden, so that all
the rooms may open onto it. There
fountains play, birds sing and flowers
send forth their fragrance. In parts OF
Mexico water is very hard to obtain
Many people make business of sell
ing it, going from house to house with
their large jugs. Usually the water
carrier has two long jars of water
strapped to his head, but those who
are more fortunate carry the water
jars in wheelbarrows. Next veal

erJe guded up the stairs. On every
landing, as she passed, the groups or
dodgers poured out to see what was
happening. The house was densely
populated, from the rich bourgeois
who occupied the second floor to the
families of those up in the attics;
they all gathered round and followed,
murmuring, half-curious, half-fright-
ened, LA folle! La folle!"
But the three men close to Antoin-
cite needed nothing now. Arthur
could once more hear the deep-drawn
breaths coming from her lips, and he
knew that they were drawing very
near the consummation.
The bystanders pressed behind
them; in the street below they gath
cred thickly round the door. Upward
still they went, up to the fifth floor
of the house, and there Antoinette
passed in. 1t was garret, mean
and bare, shorn of every luxury, or
even necessity. In the. centre of the
room, upon the ground, lay a small
portmanteau; before it, in the act OF
packing, knelt, in his shirt sleeves,
a man with his head turned, furtive-
ly looking over his shoulder, in every
feature agonizing fear. In that
shrunken, pallid face, with livid lips
and hair glued together with cold
drops of terror, they recognized Paul
Leduc.
He sprung to his feet with hoarse
nv, and a rapid look to right and
left, up and down, as IL seeking any
where some mode of escape. But
the crowd had gathered round the
doorway; a couple of gen d'armes,
hastily warned that something was
| amiss, showed themselves among
them. But still, terrible as Nemesis
itself, Antoinette went forward under
| the spell of that horrible compulsion.
Now the wand dropped from her
hands. She stood before the shrink
ing, covering wretch, and spoke.
Her voice rang out clear and wild,
with the sound of wailing cry in its
vibration.
paul Leduc! In you I denounce
the murderer of my father!"
He glanced round him, then with
a desperate bound he leaped through
the crowd. They parted to right an2
left as he flung them aside, utter
ing short painting sobs, like a wild
beast caught in trap.
Cries and shouts, tumultuous
noises followed his mad struggle for
escape
Arthur alone joined not in the pur'
suit. To him the result was nothing
All were gone; he was alone with
Antoinette.
All the force, the power of super
natural strength had left her. She
stood there once more, gentle, ter
ror-stricken girl She held out hel
hands to him with an imploring ges
ture. In her own natural tone she
uttered a faint ""v. Arthur! Ar
thur"
Then he caught her as she fell
not in the strange trance as before
but looking, indeed, as If this Wer'
death itself.
The roar and cries and shouting
without grew more distant, the1
; ceased altogether, and he knelt still
over the senseless form of his be

"I should have to turn myself about

"Who-oo-oo-o said that?" 1t was
the old North Wind who had heard
the little rooster. "Who-oo-oo-o said
he would not turn for me?"
"I did," said the little rooster, quite
bravely. "I am not going to turn for

"Whee-ee-e, we'll see about that, J"
said the North Wind.
So the North Wind just blew and
blew and blew, but the little tin roos-

A young Marlborough egg gath
erer named Joseph Major, while
working on the cliffs near the North
Danes Dyke yesterday met with an
accident which may cost him his life.
He and his brother started gath
ering early in the morning, and the
second time Joseph went over a stone
apparently became displaced and
caused him to fall and cut open his
head. When his companions did not
receive his signals they became
alarmed and went over to see the
cause They found the youth lying
on grassy slope, bleeding badly
from the wound.
With the assistance of other egg
gatherers two men were lowered over
the cliff edge and placed the unfor-
tunate man on a ledge of rock below.
The tide was coming in at the time.
A York visitor, H. Brown, who is
staying at Marlborough, ran to his
apartments some four or five miles
away, and then cycled to Bridlington,
another six miles away, to fetch DR..
WetWan.
The doctor was lowered over the
precipice, a distance of about 400 feet
an exploit that is dared by few who
are not experts-and he bandaged
up the young fellows head. The
rocket life saving apparatus was
taken out, and one of the men, Rob
ert Barnes, descended and brought
up Joseph Major in the breeches
buoy. Afterward DR.. Wetman was
hauled up, and a cheer was raised
as he reached safety.-Westminstel

AMOK!

On every side of me the violent
closing of doors and shutters resem-
bIed a rapid-fire volley from machine
guns. The Parapalang was deserted
and not a thing stirred in any direc-
tion Not a sound was heard except
the repeated: "Rap-Rap-Rap-
rap!"
It was the amok signal! 1t had
started at some place in the city
where an agent of police-or posi-
bly, a citizen-had first taken from its
hook stout, solid wooden CLUB ana
had struck a long, also solid oeam
that hung suspended from an ada
cent portico. 1t had been taken up
instantly at many different points IN
welteyreden by citizens and police
agents, so that the amok signal was
flashed all over Weltevreden as
quickly as if a central telephone or
telegraph operator had flashed it over
European wires. The signal meant
that some unfortunate little brown
Javanese had gone suddenly mad
mad as only a Malay can become.
The repeated signals warned all VINO
valued their lives to escape the man
iacal rush of the dreaded amok run

Around the corner | came upon a
native, stretched out stark, and then
upon a dog that was limping along
with frightful cuts across it's body.

signs of life since the dreaded signal

down the street there came the fin

peated in rapid succession. This sig
nal. like the first which gave the
alarm, concerned the amok runner
only the signal now meant that the

patched. 1t was taken up in all di

houses and soon the little group OF
