ISt. Louis Globe-Democrat An old Mexican in Nogales, Sonora, is attempting to dispose of his fifteen-year-old daughter by means of a ratlle, thirty chancf s, at $1 a chance. The girl In different hands would be a comely young miss, but, unfortunately, she belongs to a lower elafs, who think it no violation of the laws, the law of God or society, to dispose of an attractive-appearing female in that way. Both Americans and the better class of Mexicans are highly indignant over the afiair and it is highly probable that the raflie will come oö, although tbe Mexican statutes contain no law touching the point, while the man eeems to think that he is doing no wrong in thus disposing of his daughter In that manner. He is nevertheless going into the scheme as slyly as its nature will permit and insure a successful disposal of the tickets. A case similar to this occurred at the same place once before, but the public knew nothing about it until the girl had been eent home to her parents, In this instance a Mexiean woman sold her daughter, who waa filteen years old, to a Chinese merchant for $13 in Mexican money. The Chinaman kept the young girl a while, and when he became wearied of her eent her home to her parents. Young girls are fnquently made an article of barter among the most ignorant tribes of Mexican Indians, but it is rarely that a Mexican stoops so low. A Weddlns Party Drowned. LoKDoir. March 15.

THE HOLY HOUR.
Faintly as fades tbe rail e from a'ecpin Ihe last ot day wanes in the enist west; And from tbe blue abo-re me darknes dips Like some wing-weary bird aoov its nefct. Dim as a warrior's tarnished shieM tie mooa llctts on tbe dusky bordeis ot tbe V,'l.06e deep voice, like some weird old praphet'a rune, Tbrougb the still air is bone ai-r to aae. Tbe low of herds is hushed upon the hill. Tbe mill baa ceased to murmur by tbe streara, In yellow field tbe clanging scythe is still, And all the darkling nor.d is iu a dreaia. One after one, among the stress trees. The lights come out along the Tillage stre-t. And many a pleasant glimpse o! household ease Lends night, with all its stars, a cliarm more sweet. And hark ! where in tower the gloom the time-wora Looms gaunt and shost-lite from tue cynrens grove. How tenderly tte church clock tolls the hour! The ho'.y hjur ot perfect peace and love: 8weet bour; from whose cool, crystal nrns of air The soothing draught to feverel care is given, Wboe utarry silence, like a worldless prayer, I plilts tne dark world to the gates of H.-Teu.

So much money, time and attention are lavished on tbe doily that it seems useless to strive for tne possession of prettv plates Those med in the center of the table for crackers, wafers, rolls, bread, fruit, or con serves ere first covered with a doily large encush and so close in grain as to conceal the decorated design. The tendency is to cover up the pretty decorations, for with a salad the plate Is laid under lettuce; if the course is a cream or ice a mass of spun tugar is first laid on the plate, and with fruits there is a background of leaves or rce petals. The only time one is certain of the privilege of studying a plate is ia tte soup course. Then the brim is always on display, and the elegant host never serves more than the quantity necessary to nil a chocolate cup. A boot with Docgola top, curaco vamp, end patent leather tips, sold at $ , is tin bt s for this eed:on that the trads can oifer for general wear. Better shoes are to be tad, but, anticipating the rainy weather, it is en extravagance to pay more money for a street shoe. Unlike the men's foot gcer, ladies' line shoes are ruined by the rain. Where rubbers are held in abhorence the best plan is to buy castom-maJe boots, in which the material is especially adapted to Flush and water. Properly müde, a boot of this sort will retain its shape to the last. There is no wisdom in freighting the feet with double sales and heavy upper, and thrusting rubbers over all this leather. With rubbers one needs a very hht boot; otherwise locomotion becomes a punishment. A very stylish boot, now in stock, is modeled on the la3t of the gentlemen's street shoe, being laced in front over top buttons with silk cord. The shoe is vamped with straight goat, and the uppers of undressed kid, give a glove lit about the ankles. There are half shoes of beach brown, maroon, scarlet, bronze and black morocco, made with a French heel and pointed that is recommended for ; hcuse wear, being a great convenience, too, for carriage use. These ehoes Bell for $r, j and are the eame cut that found favor in the east last summer among the fashion- i ble resorts. A Dazxlics Iloosler Uu-ie, N'ew York Morning Journal.
