but from the moment the first Charg-

soul in the game.
Six beautiful young ladies made up
the "Rienas" (queens) and We're in a
specially constructed stand. They We're
provided with beautiful bouquets tied
with long ribbons, to be pinned on
the successful killers.
The proceeding with each bun was

lower his head and charge. The men
would get out of the way as best they
could. At the same time two mon on

would charge on the BUN. and the bull
on them. At this fight no horses were
killed though they were repeatedly
knocked down. rolled over and tram
pied upon. One hOrseman got pretty
badly rolled on, but he got up and
stuck to it for a few minutes before
finally giving up.
One particularly quick bull succeed
ed in bowling over three of the men
that were on foot but they managed
TO roll and scramble aside.
At a bugle signal the horsemen re-
tired and two banderillos proceeded to

Then the matadore would come on,

at the first opportunity the matadore
would plunge the sabre into the Charg-

lowered head.
ASome Of the matadores managed to
drive the sabre into the hit at the
first attempt. when of course the ami
NAL would instantly drop dead. Others
made several thrusts, as apparently
the fatal spot is very small. The bull
must he on the charge to enable the
matadore to deliver the killing thrust.

reported that il was as alleged a mis-

after thirty years use.
During breakfast we reverted to
topic that had been discussed now and
then ever since We had crossed the
Rio GraEde. viz: Pocket picking. 1t

reputation for slick artists in this line,
and law and custom do their best to
foster the art. Two eye witnesses are

Mr.. Barlow. the I. 8. consul general,
has had his pockets picked three times
since he has been stationed in Mexico
City. on one of the occasions he
seized the thiefs hand while it was
still in his pocket but the authorities
held that it was an illegal seizure
and nothing came of the prosecution

We were talking these things over,
when Mr.. Littsey observed 10 the
brewery machinery man that the way
ne was carrying his watch, viz: in his
vest pocket with fob attached, was
not safe. 'Ho, no., laughed the brew

Then he would go up TO the stand

A different matadore would kill each

In one case a horseman stuck in the
six bars, two at a time. His horse

of the bull and at the same time put
the rider close enough to the bull to
enable him to apply the barhs This
was a fine display of Workmanship
and daring.

one of the bull-hghters and congratu-
