KITC!H KITCHEN, Thoe Cutest Little Cuisine for a Res- taurant Ever Seen, The Kitchen Brothers have reopened their cafe in the Paxton, but on a some- what more oxtensive scale, having put in a special kitchen in a small room adjoin- ng. It looks like the kitchon in a rail- rond dining car, so compact and handy is everything. Two gas ranges do the cook- ing, and so perfect are they in the work that in a twinkling oysters are fried or o stew is made, a prairio grouso done to a turn, a Porterhouse or a tenderloin made savory, ham and eggs finished, or a pot of coffes, tea, or delicious chocolate boiled.

A characteristic and instructive incident occurred at the Sturbride hotel the other day. An American gentleman, desirous of seeing the sights, engaged a carriage at the usual place. They teturned to the hotel in less than an hour, but the driver refused to accept the 70 cents tendered, demanding un pero—a dollar. There is not a driver in Monterey who can speak a word of English, and our American triend could not talk Spanish, but, de- termined not to be swind.ed even out of 50 small a sum, The services of an in- terpreter was secured, when the follow- ing dialogue ensued: Traveler, “*did you not agree to drive me one hour for 50 cents?” Interpreter, ‘‘yes, but you turned the carriage top down.” Astonished “huve r ‘“‘well, what has that to do with it?” Interpreter, teler, says that the car- riage is 50 cents an hour, but if you turn the top down so that you can look at the girls and the girls can look at you, it is a dollar an hour, . This is the custom in Monterey.” Whereupon the price was paid As the coaches are so con ted that it is impossible to see anythit8¥ith- out craning one’s neck out of the small door, the top is pretty certain to be turned down, First we drive to the BISHOP'S PALACE, which, from its name the unsophisticated imagine to be a modern residence. It is aruin now used as artillery headquarters, situasted on Bispado hill, west of the town. Qur coachman declines to drive us further than the foot of the hill, and up we climb, under the broiling summer sun, wondering how on earth those rust- caten cann b are lying all around, wi gotten up there. The would-be wit of our party declarcs that the climb-ate (climate) doesn't agree with us, whereupon we retaliated by inquiring wherein he does not resemble one of the cannon aforesaid—because heis a smooth, double-barrelled bore, and these are sin- gle! But, the top onco gained, the view amply s tho toil and trouble. Bo- low lies the ancient city in its mountain setting,and the heights close in all around us, growing grander and more impossible the nearer we approach them, Traces of the A invasion of 1846 are every- where hese dismounted cannon were Taylors, (for e stormed and took this ““pals ) and on the topmost peak of the lofty Sierve del Silla, on the other sido of the town, the American colors floated over the downfall of Monterey.

The *‘Palace portion of the edinice was never finished. n 1816 Gen.

The mature men of to-day the leaders, politicians, generals, fighters, are those who were born of the trouble and horror of the war, and who inherited from their mothers the hatred which is ‘‘born in the bone." Next it is well to visit the churches of Let us take them in the or der they were built. First there is the Rumous — but still used, Iglosen do San Francisco. It s an odd looking site of Moorish architecture, surrounded by an adobe wall almost ns high as itself. "~ In the carliest days of the conquest, when Spanish missionaries came to convert the Indians, wherever they halted they erected arude jacal(hut) of branches, wherein they performed di- vine sorv! As the Indians moved from place to place in search of better fruits ot richer ground, the missionaries follow ed, sotting up their leafy sanctua) wherever night overtook them, Fray Andres de Leon, who came to this coun try in 15692, for whom the state was named, built his jacal here, and held services in it until ho succoeded in organ izing his mission, In the meantime, Montemayor came, and formally founded the city on the 20th of Soptember, b Fray do Leon being appointed its first pavish priest. For six years aftor this initiatory shed of branches, the parish church of the metropolitan city of Notre ame de Monterey, was a hovel of stone and clay, roofed with hay, and then Fray Leon orected a convent for Fran ang, which still forms part of the church bofore us. As early as 1626 the church had o strong tower and a grave yard, for in those days sanctuaries wero lacos of refuge and fortification as well, 3ut the roof was still of dried grass and Spanish daggor leaves, and again and again tho pricats were obliged to ro-roof it, for winds blew it away and a spark burned it in a moment. So they went on for 150 years, till 1753, when the Iy- lesis do San Francisco, which now ex- ists, was furnished with a thick roof of sabine beams, which appear capable of defying the storms and sunshino of many centuries more. Its great wooden door is worm-eaten and rickety, but the crossed arms painted upon it (one it a sleevo of purple and scarlet, represonting the t']mr\'}l, and the other bare, repre- senting the people) aro still plainly to bo soen. Girass and cactus have grown and died and grown again, for o hundred sea- sons, upon the stone arches of the roof, and among them a few young trees are growing thriftily. Its old tower, reached by an inside staircase whose stones have been worn hollow by many feot, con- tains a so-called “‘chime” of rusty bells, which make a terrible clamor when ‘‘the ringers ring with a_will,” as they do at every hour in the day. In the vaults bo- low it the inquisitien was located, “in tho days when that barbarism .was preached in Mexico. It is impossible tor protestant feet to gain admittance there, but it is darkly hinted that some of the machines and 1mplements of tor- ture are still hiaden in 1ts lower recesses. This old church has a wonderful fasci tion for me. 1 climbed its moldy tower and looked down into its courts—now woeds, grown ana deserted, and think of nuns and monks who walked there in other days, even whose burial place is now forgotten. Inside the church where service is still held daily, are seen the usual pictures, images, altars, and con- fessionals common to such ancient edi- fices, only they aro, if possible, higher than usual. The taste of the early Span h fathers seemed to riot in gorgeous coloring. The Virgin is represented in all the colors of the rainbow, and Christ and the saints are generally caractuned with purple legs and blue hair, Now let us go to LA CAPILLA DE LA PURISMIA, which little church has given its name to west Monterey. Moro than a hundred years ago thero came o great deluge— when it rained and rained forty days together. Tremendous floods fell from the Sierra Madras and poured down through Santa Catarine, deluging all before them and overflowing even the hill where the bishop's palace stands, and Monterey was in imminent duigor, An Indian woman who made shoes for a living, possessed a life sized wooden statue of the virgin, and when the floods were rising in the suburbs of the city she took out her image to the water’s edge and prayed to it—whercupon the floods miraculously receded. Then this pious woman and her humble neighbors erected a hacal upon the spot, commemorative of the ovent, which was called ‘“‘the virgin's home,” and was sucred to her worship. There the women went to pray every Saturduy as they passed by on their ex- cursions or holiday prominades, By and by a rich lady, who had often gone there for her devofions, dying in Monterey, left a legacy with which to build a bett: chapel, which was erected near the old one. A few years later they wmade a graveyard beside the chapel for the many belicving women who desivod to be buried where 80 great o miraclo had been por formed; but in 1858 the cemetery was re moved to make way for the growing city. Next comes KL ROBLE, (the oak) which is as much a ruin as the San Francisco, although it was never completed. 1t was commenced a contury ago, but 80 slowly was the work carried on that in sixty {'um'» the first nave was scarcely finished. They built first the teen yoars later came a royal decree from the King of Spain, establishing in Mon- terey theseat of the Episcopal power, and ‘ordering the building of a cathedral, Gov. Baldez seleoted the site which plensed him best, on the north side of town where now stands the ruins of the ancient citadel. The work was be- gun but after three yoars labor and spend ing sixty thousand dollars, it was_aban- doned on account_of differences of opin- ion botween Gov. Valdez and the chapter of the bishopric. Shortly after Valdez died, and neither his successor nor the chapter of the diocese cared much about continuing the work, although there was then money enough in the treasury ap- propriated to that purpose, which™ will probably never again be the case. *‘La Iglesia RI:\) er," the main church which answers the purpose of cathedral, oxisted since 1604, but, like the San Francisco, was at first only a jaca), sub ject to being burned or blown away, aud | frequontly repaired. In 1635 the pros ont church was begun, but progressed so slowly that half o century later 1t wasu ¢ yot ready for occupancy. Then the priosta took it in hand and by soliciting alms in tho courso of fiftoen years had finished the first vault of the church Then some wealthy citizens, encouraged by this rapid(?) progross, camo to the ros cue, and in 1701 it was declared com ploted. Its outsido walls are colored a pale yollow with much carving and stone work on the front—protty checked, fat logged figures and impossible cherubing without bodies, and up in its town is a wonderful clock—made in the City of Mexico by Antonie Velazquer, in 178, This clock is & great in- stitution. 1t not only tells the hours, but strikes the quarters by another bell, with a deep, resonant tone, to bo heard by all the city. Inthe other tower are soveral bells which are con- stantly clattering, for there is servico overy hour in the day at the cathedral, lnaijn is the ‘‘dim religious light” we read of, for the windows are heavily barred and high up under the roof, and the only light eomes in through the three claborately earved doors. There are per- haos half & dozen seats in the church, owned by privato families, but the great majority of the peaple profer kneeling on the dusty floor. 'I'Lu ornamental altarin front, SLARK Fancling broiniAbbRLS roof, is very fine, carefully carved and gilded, upon which ten lifo-sizo saints stand forth, all with exactly the same expres- sjon of sanctified curiosity upon their faces, which a century has not modified, As the construction of this church lasted 160 years, it is impossible to find any es- timate of its actual cost. When in 1849 the Mexican congress ordered that the valuo of all properties should be present- ed to them, the church authorities (who, cumstances, under-rato its value) repre- sented it as worth $200,000. In arother portion of the church which serves as chapel, even more profuse, and the images more gaudy as to dress and woe-bevone as to ex- pression, is a queer concern which looks ike a wardrobe ornamented with mitres and devices wherever are buried the suc- cessive bishops of Linares. They are shelved in this vault, which is built into the wall, in the following order wt to dates, 1799, 1815, 1821, 1844, The floor of the whole building in composed of a succession o trap doors, each of which is numbered and has a hollow for inserting the hand, so that it may be lifted ~ Un- derneath, for more than a hundred years the dead of Monterey wero buried, but several years ago it was declared full, and no more are permitted to be interred there. It does not decrease the feeling of solemnity when one is inside this dim old church, listening to the music of the mass and the responses in Spanish of the kneeling multitudes—to know that one 18 standing above the bones of u century's dead. Some of the special ceremonies are very pretty, not to say smrtiu. For in- stance, during the month of May, and upon the nata day of any suintess, it is the custom, after o mags, in which is much music of base-viol and cornet,—five young ladien dressed in white like brides, with white veils and orange blossoms, to walk in a procession around the church, the first four sengrites carry upon their shouldors an imago of tho virgin upon a laco draped and flowor strewn litter, pre- ceded by little girls also dressed in white and carrying tall white lillies in their hands.
