A BULLFIGHT IN MEXICO.

THE
lnllThat Fight and Bull That rtttn
A nay-Giving- the Animal His
Finishing Stroke.
A writer in tlio Now York Commercial
Udrcrtiter thus describe a Sunday bull
fight in the City of Mexico:
Tho bugle sounds the call, and amid
the cheers and shorn of the multitude the
l:ull-fijhtiui team inarches in the arena.
In advnnco are the matadores, Matietn,
rcpc-Hillo nnd Vullailolid, in brilliant
costumes. They arc covered with gaudy
cloaks, which are at onco thrown aside
and tossed to the American ladies, who
occupy the boxes immediately in front of
the judge. Their appearance arouses the
audience to a high pitch of cnthusinsm.
Immediately a number of high-crowned
Jli xican hats po sailing through the air
ami alight in the. ring, a welcome to the
favorites. Following tha matadores
conic the capeadorcs, the men who handle
the mulctas or mantels, and then the
picadores, or horsemen with pike.
As the outburst of applause dies away
nil eyes are fixed upon tho entrauco to
the ring iu which the first bull is to ap
pear. They have not long to wait. He
bounds out of tho passage way and as
ho ncars the ring an attendant plants a
dart firmly in his shoulder. The dart
lias ribboiiR attached to it showing tho
breeder' colors. Maddened by tho pain
the animal makes a dash nt tho first ob
ject In sight. A dozen men with gayly
colored mantles nro scattered about tho
ring. They strive to attract his atten
tion, and when he charges at them they
ump nimbly aside. The bull is lean
and wiry. Disappointed in reaching his
tormentor, his eyes alight on the mounted
picadores, and ho makes a charge on one
of them. The picadoro docs not try to
evade him and tho poor brute that he
rides has no knowledge ot the danger
that threatens him, for he is blindfolded.
The horse, the noblest of the brute crea
tion, is brought into the bull ring to be
slaughtered. Tho bull unhorses the pic
adoro without inflicting any injury on
him, but the horse docs not escape. An
exclamation of indignation is heard from
the Americans as the bull withdraws, and
a stream of blood is seen flowing from the
horse, who is lei limping away. Next
the bandcrilleros take a hand. They are
agile and expert. Standing with a gaily
decorated dart in each hand, they at
tract the attention of the bull, and as he
makes his chargo they skilfully implant
their darts iu his shoulder and adroitly
leap to one side. If the bull pursues
them very closely they evade him, either
by leaping over the walls of the iuclos
ure or by seeking the shelter on one of
tho places of refuge, shallow boxes on
the side of the ring into which the bull
cannot enter. The fronts of these
sheltering spots are thickly covered with
the marks of the horns of tho animals
who have vainly tried to pierce the bar
riers. This performance is repeated several
times, but now the audience grows im
patieut for the end, and loud cries are
made for the espada to give the finishing
stroke. Again the bugle sounds. The
star bull-flghtcr advances with proud and
confident step. He is dressed in green and
gold. A tall and powerfully-built man,
he salutes the judge, and with his glitter
ing blade iu oue hand and a small
blooded mulets in the other, he boldly
steps iu front of the now tired animal
and awaits a charge. After a few passes
he delivers a strong aud well-placed
stroke, burying the blado Dearly to the
hilt iu tho body of the animal. The
audience loudly applauds. More hats are
thrown into the ring aud the fighter
passes around tossing them back to tho
crowd. The bull staggers, falls, and the
finishing stroke is giving by the cachctero.
Three mules harnessed ubreast and gayly
caparisoned are driven in, a strap is
fastened to the carcass, it is dragged out,
and the tirst act in the drama is over.
A second bull enters tho arena. He
has no light in him, and instead of rush
ing at his tormentors, he walks to the
walls of the enclosure and gazes at the
spectators as if mutely beseeching theru
to let him return to his native pastures.
-Jhfl crowd yell at him in derision, and
loud calls are made for the lazadores to
lasso him and drag him out. Two horse
men enter and give an interesting ex
hibition of their skill. In a second the
ropo whistles through the air, it settles
around tho horns of the bull, aud the in
telligent horses, tho rope drawn taut,
braces themselves while the second laza
dore endeavors to catch the animal
around one of the hind legs and so
throw him. He succeeds in looping him,
but tho bull escapes from tho noose and
is finally driven from tho arena. A
third bull is brought out. Ho, too, is
tame and tries to escape. He is turned
out ingloriously.
The fourth comes in with flashing eye
and a manner which plainly shows that
he intends to clear the ring. He stands
for a moment pawing the earth, and
then, with a fierce rush, charges directly
on Picadoro Naraujero. The horse is
overthrown uud the man pitched high in
the air. Ho falls directly on the horns
of the angry heart. Other fighters
divert his attention while tho
man recovers his feet and mounts
"A his horse, which is sliwly driven
out, his entrails protruding a horrible
spectacle. Now we are treated to anoth
er exhibition of skill of a different
chaiacter. Ferrer, one of the boldest of
the fighters, stands iu the pathway of
the bull, and as the charge is made,
vaults lightly over him with tho aid of a
pole. It is a close call for the darin
man. The bull strikes the pole, breaks
it in twain, while the man drops lightly
to the ground out of harm's way. An
other dariug banderillero, Arauzaez,
sits calmly iu n chair awaiting a charge,
and as the bull approaches rises quickly,
successfully implants the darts in his
shoulder aud makes his escape, while the
chair is shattered. Four more bulls are
driven in and killed in rapid succession;
but without startling accompaniment.
The fight with the last bull of the lot
savors more of the shambles than uny of
the preceding. After the animal has
charged the picadores no less than five
times without wounding the horse the
ma' .idor advanced to dispatch him. Time
aat'trr time does he try to tempt the
UTf4lo make a charge, for it must be
uuderatSTfclthut the stroke must not be
delivered uiuler any other condition un
less the liyliter viiies to incur a penalty.
At length u favorable opportunity ar
rive, aud the sword i. embedded iu the
annual's body ueurly to the hilt. Tena
cious of life, ho seems insensible of the
wound he has received, and walks around
the wulln of the arena, gazing at the
kpu tutors, fctjijjiug Ui!LVfiI8ifeL5i'
hanging there, and trying to find a way
to escape from his persecutors. The
laKftdores are called in to throw him. Ue
successfully evades their efforts for a long
time, and is chased around tho ring,
bleeding from a dozen wounds After a
tedious case the animal is roped, thrown
to the ground and- dispatched with the
lancc-headcd dagger. Tho spectators
file out of tho enclosure. 8oitm of the
visitors purchaso the bandcrillos which
havo entered tho bull and are stained
with his blood. Tho moro fight the
bull has shown tho higher the value
placed on tho gory instruments. Mean
whilo there seems to bo but ono opinion
in the minds of the Americans regarding
bull fighting, nnd that is that it is a de
grading, brutal spectacle, unworthy to
be known ns the national snort of a civ
ilized people.

Sturdy Old:
Remarkable Coincidences.
The remarkable story told by ex-Dis
trict Attorney John W. Johnston, of
Lancaster County, Penn., in tho Phila
delphia Inquirer, is not likely to havo
many parallels. About three years be
fore the war, acting on tho great
Greeley's advice, young Johnson got as
far west as Illinois. His cousins, Frank
Price aud Kersey II. Fell, had preceded
him there from Chester County and wero
well established . They pui some legal
matters in his hands that needed atten
tion, and on April 30, 1S37, he found
himself at Decatur, then enough of a
railroad centre to be tho intersecting
point of two Illinois roads. Connections
were faulty here, aud Johnson found that
he would have to lay over the greater
part of the day until the next train came
along. Presently he met another young
man who, it afterward transpired, was in
a precisely similar condition. They fell
to talking and walking together. As a
pair of scales stood near by they jumped
on and were weighed. Each tipped the
beam at 145 pounds. This excited some
surprise, as the oue seemed taller than the
other. They then measured their heights.
Each stood five feet nine inches. Still
more remarkable, however, was tho
coincidence that now came out, that the
one was born on the same day of the
identical year on which the other was
ushered into the world.
"Well, now," said the surprised young
lawyer, "what's your name?"
"John W. Johnson," camo the reply,
"and what's yours?"
"John W. Johnson."
So it was that these two young
strangers, accidentally thrown together,
found that their respective weights, ages
and names were identical. Both were
also Pennsylvauiaus. The Lancaster
John W. Johnson vouches for the truth of
this remarkable series of coincidences.
Ho has never seen the other John W.
Johnson from that day to this.
The Newest Thins in Thievery.
The newest thing in Inspector Byrnes's
line was developed when Detective Wolf
brought in Antonio Frosnello, - a lad
young in years, but evidently precocious
in crime.
Antonio is an Italian, fourteen years
old. He lives at 102 Mott street, and
for a living blacks passengers' boots on
the South Ferry line of boats.
Sunday ufternoon young Antonio
sauntered into T. Goldesman's photo
graphic gallery, 381 Canal street, and
told the artist that he wanted to sit for
his picture. The lad was attired in his
best Sunday clothes, but his appearance
was not quite in keeping with the impor
tance of the event. He said that the picture
was to be a present to his sweetheart, a
Neapolitan beauty, and he wanted to ap
pear at his very best. Ho asked the
photographer to loan him his watch aud
chain for the occasion.
All unsuspecting, the photographer
did so. The picture was takcu, and the
operator went into the dark room, leav
ing Antonio alone. When he came out
the boy had gone, and with him the gold
watch, chaiu and medals attached, worth
$200. Sea York Sun.
Dreams.
The subject of dreams seems to de
maud more thorough study than it has
yet received from science. Dr. Julius
Nelson, of New York, has lately pub
lished the results of au examination he
made of some 4000 of his dreams. He
finds that the dreams ot evening gener
ally follow great physical or mental fa
tigue, and are associated with tho events
of the day. The same applies to night
dreams, which, however, have more of a
terrifying element in them. The most
remarkable and pleasant are the morning
dreams, occurring after complete rest of
the brain. Fancy then appears to have
its widest range and activity, working
marvelous transformations, and giving
clear vision of the past und the future.
Dr. Nelson further finds that the vivid
ness of his dreams is subject to regular
fluctuations of twenty-eight days, und
that they also vary with the seasons, so
that they are vc ry vivid iu December,
and least vivid in March and April. An
old popular superstition attaches special
iiiiiiui i.au,u vvj -J11.1IUS iu iu-o i n 1 1 o

it is suggested that this is, perhaps, bo-

HOUSING THE HOMELESS
HOW NEW YORK'S CHEAP LODGING
HOUSES ARE BUN.
Who the r.trons of tho Houses Are
Prices anrt Accommodations
The KfjtulaOons.
In the great population of tho metro
polis thcro is an array of homeless men.
They are brought to extremes by bad
fortune, disaster, drink, crime and some
times by age, but nearly all of them nro
able to get from day to day a little money
it may be by honest work, or by thiev
ing ov begirary and for such men thero
are some 300 lodging-houses in the city.
They arc really hotels of the plainest ami
poorest type, and furnish little more than
baro shelter to transient, guests, though
many of tho "transients"' are regularcus
tomers, and even hire their rooms by tho
week. These houses have a capacity of
from fifty to 500 guests, and when full,
as they often are in the winter, probably
accommodate 25,000 persons.
A rough estimate probably a fairly
accurate one has been made that one
third of these persons are criminals and
beggars. One-eighth or moro are con
stant drunkards. Probably one-quarter,
equally divided, are men who are out of
work and honestly in search of it, and
those who have work, but earn only
starvation wages. Thcro is a proportion
of small peddlers, ot tramps, of hopeless
ly broken-down men, and there are a few
who live in these houses on account of
parsimony. There aro very few, for ono
who can afford better will seldom enduro
tho life of a lodger for any time.
In the winter, for obvious reasons,
trade is at its best in tho lodging-houses.
It is not seldom difficult to get shelter in
ono of them ; but iu summer tho profes
sional tramp goes to the country, and the
drunkard or tho poverty-stricken man
sleeps out-of-doors it may be on a bench
in the park, or it may bo in au areaway.
The patrons of the houses have learned
how to support lifo on tho minimum.
They can get shelter for five cents a night,
and enough to eat barely enough, that
is for seven or eight cents a day. With
less than this one must go hungry or
shelterless. Not all tho lodging-houses,
however, arc so cheap as this. Prices
vary from five cents to thirty cents a
night, according to the accommodations.
The cheapest consist of largo rooms al
most halls filled with cots or "shake
downs," these latter being thin mattresses
thrown on the bare floors. Tho better
class, where twenty or thirty cents is tho
price, offers to each customer a separate
room. This is a mere subdivision ot a
large room, and is made by board par
titions about seven feet high. Tho
"rooms" are about teu feet long by five
in width, and each contains a cot, a
chair, and half a dozen hooks on which
clothing may be hung. There is also,
in a case of. greatest excellence, a little
closet, perhaps one foot by two in di
mensions, in which the lodger may lock
up his clothing for extra safety. Iu such
a case he will probably put tho key into
his stocking, aud keep his stocking on
when he goes to sleep.
The bedding in these rooms is of the
cheapest, consisting of a mattress aud
pillow stuffed with "excelsior," two
sheets, and a cotton coverlid, cheaper
and cleaner than a blanket. Thero is no
covering to the bare floor; but this is far
from being drawback, as it greatly facil
itates tho cleanliness which is iusisted on
by tho proprietors of the place no less
strenuously than by the Board of Health.
The most releutlcss warfare is waged
against tho dirt, vermin, and disease
germs that naturally accumulate in such
places, and soap, water, aud powerful
disinfectants are used prodigally. Walls
nnd floors are flooded by the use of hose,
bed linen is washed twice or thrice a week
at the least, oftrner daily, and in many
of the rooms the crystals of disinfectants
that have dried on the walls sparkle-liko
the side of a shaft in a salt-mine.
Few of the lodging-houses have bath
rooms, but each has u lavatory, in which
are from two to a dozen wash hand
basins, where the lodgers may perform
their toilets. Strong laundry soap nnd
rough roller towels arc provided, and tho
customer is easily able, if he so desires.to
maintain at least the appearance of clean
liness. In one of these cheap lodgiug.
houses, which is maintained by a chari
table society, the prico of a night's
lodging includes the privilege of a bath
at nicht. and coffee and a roll in the
morning. It may be remarked that this
is not a popular house.
Tho regulations are fow and simplo.
Guests are usually admitted at any hour,
but the lights in the halls nnd dormitories
(none is allowed in tho individual rooms)
are lowered or extinguished at 9 p. m.,
and at 10 p. M., iu most cases, the reading-room,
which is a feature of the
better houses, is darkened. At a fixed
hour in the morning, varying, according
to the season and the house, from 0 to
10 a. m. the guests aro aroused. If they
do not arise at the summons, they are,
in the poorer houses, cither rolled out of
bed on to tho floor, or a stream of water
from the hose is directed at them. In
some places a guest is allowed to remain
in bed as long as he chooses, but if ho
so remain after the rising hour, ho is
charged for another night's lodgiug.
Exceptions are made in favor of print
ers and other night workmen, who come
iu at 4 or 5 a. m., and are allowed to
sleep till 5 r. M.
The business of keeping these houses,
small as the prices are, is a lucrative one.
One man, a pioneer in the business, is
suid to havo accumulated half a million
dollars in it. The proprietors are
usually responsible men of fair character,
from a police standpoint at least, aud
though they are watched by the police,
generally keep on good terms with the
Captain of the precinct. They nevsr
shelter thieves from pursuit, at least
when they believe the polico to have defi
nite information, and they strive to
stand well in the records of the Board
of Health. Harper' Weekly.

The quail's whistling is heard iu the

turns up at 2 :30 on a summer morning.

sound with his tnelodv. The house spar

after 4:30 the voices of the robin aud
