They're Very Handsome, But Their Dresses Don't Become Them. AN ANCIENT AMERICAN CITY. 1t Had Its Boom Several Hundred Years Ago and Now Lives Mainly In the Memory of the FPast. Liasses With Languid Eyes. It is but a few hours sail [rom the island of Roatan to Cape Honduras, where Columbus first set foot on the American continent, and situated on a beautiful harbor gheltered by the long sand spit of the cape, is the old city of Trujillo. There is no other point on the north coast that, in commerce, can compare with this city, which Cortez founded and built up at the end of his long overland march from Tehuan- tepec. From here, in olden times, the gold and silver bullion were shipped to Spain, and when that country’s power in tho new world was on the de- eline, it was in front of Trujillo that the buccaneers laid in wait to pick up the Spanish treasure ships. Our small schooner was able to pass the bar with which every river flowing north in Central America seems to be dammed, and & German merchant and I, tho only passéngers, were landed at the small wharf in the dory, writes a correspondent of the New York Times. The city contains about five thousand inhabitants, four-fifths of whom are as dark-skinned natives ag one meets on the mountain trails of Guatemala, though a yellowish tinge of color ruus through them all, hetraying their Cavib orvigin, 'The "arrival - of the monthly schooner 18 an event in the life of a Trujillian, as important as that of Christmas to the small boy of the Unitgd States, anl a hundred men, women and children, offering fruit for sale, greoting us as wo stepped ashore. The only hotel was a one-story adobe, whose rooms opened on an interior “patio,” which served as stable, pigsty, cow-vard and general dumping ground for the whole house, but as dirty as we found the court-yard the rooms and beds wero scrupulously clean. Nothing but the seashore immediate- 1y uuder the equator could be more tropical, Palms and bunana trees linad avery street, and through every door opening into the houses one sees the most luxurinnt vegetition and Howers that bloom the year around. A remem- brance of former prosperity induces nearly every viass of its inhabitauts to dress better than people do at other const towns; and here, as elsewhore, [ found & doclded und growing preference for American goode. The pure Carib wears little but the coarse, common cottons of native weaving; the women of a higher grade affect ginghams and goudy calicoos; but the dress of the lady,” par excellence, is a different affair, and those whom 1 had the pleas- ure of um)lu' wera quite up to the for- eigner’s idoa of the “DARK, LANGUID-EVED" SENORITA. To be dressed as thoy are in Havana is all that the belle of Trujille desirves, and as the elimates differ but little, texture, weight and fashion may be ac- curately copied, IJ‘_h\. gauzy ma- terials seom to be the rule tho year round, aud awong the weslthy every fold neccfismly held together is pinned with a diamond d“l Fortunately I was invitad to the New Year’s ball, and had some illusions dis- pelled which I had formed of Central American beauty. With very few ex- ceptions the young ladies were tall, graceful and of beautiful figure, though their dress rather distracted from their appenrance: and T could not heip thinking how much more to ad- vantege they would have shown them- gelves if they could only have passed through the hanas of n New York modiste. The delicate puleness asso- ciated with Spanish tropical beauty and the raven hair type predominated. Pretty hands and pretty feet are com- mon, though a decent shoe is very rare, The hair 18 usually **banged” and worn plaited behind, though the beauty of the me.l is ulwn)a lessened by running a bright-colored ribbon with the hair. I do not remember seeing a hat worn by any lady along the const, They are never worn while making 1s, and in the streets the ‘‘mantilla” is always used. The soft climate does not cause neuralgia, and I thoroughly enjoyed the absence of females with their faces tied up in handkerchiefs which one sees 8o much of in the streets of Guate- mala. There is a general lack of edu- cation among women; TO PLAY THE PIANO A LITTLE and to waltz is about all that is required outside of mere reading and writing. Many writers and travelers mention the women of Honduras as graceful and fearless horse- women. Nothing could be further from the truth, I have seen very many in the saddle, and I huve never seen one who showed as much courage as the av- erage American girl whbo mounts a horsa the first time. Young women know no more than to sit in the saddle, and their *‘Rosinunte,” or mule, follows the trail, and those of middle age (their time of groat avoirdupois) ride their animals in such a ciumsy way as to resemblo bags of flour, as they go bumping along. Very few "know wlu-,b a riding habit is, and when taking short rides their ordinary dressis not changed —which makes the pussing equestrienne an object of much interest to the *‘Cabal- loros.” The place to seo the Central Awmerican belle is not on borseback. But with none of the advantages fered by morve enlightened countries she never fails to interest the traveler by a peculinr gentleness and sweotness of manner which Plucos her far above the pert, forward “miss” of San Fran- cisco and on a level with the best-bred girls of New York. A considerable portion of the trade of Trujillo is in medicinal plants, more of which grow in the department of Olaneho than in any other portion of Central America. = The sarsaparilla vine grows wild, and one has oaly to walk & fow stops beyond the town limits to run against its thorns. It is a climbing vine, and clings as close to bushes, rees and rocks as the common ivy. Natives wmake trips into the woods at regular intervals, gathering its reddish-brown roots in small quanti- ties. which always command a ready sale to the seaport merchants, who sep- arate it into two qualitles, gomrned by the diameter of the root and its color and richness of juice, The pieces ave cut in one-foot lengths and shipped to foreign countries in twenty-five-pound bules, The medicinal properties of the vine are not recognized in Honduras, and wheu the native thinks his blood needs purifying he physics himself with bl uv»mm pills untfl he salivates bimself, There is & plant ealled the eayamu- ola, which has the peculiar property of salivation. It & about four feet high, with a flaxible stalk like our wilkweed, hav lug at its wp a yellow lily. The. pungeit odor of the stall | when inhaled swells the fuce like pz)ism) ivy, and the leaves, if eaten, loosen the teoth. Cattle iustinctively avoid it as the cattle of the southwest of our coun- try avoid “necdle g which pierces and cuts their entrails The thick forests immediately back uf the town are inhabited by hundieds of familics of monkeys, and one fre- quently has a sense of fellow fecling when ‘in some solitary aund secluded spot he sevs an OLD AND WRINKLED PATRIARCH perched high up in sowe tree, scrutin- izing one’s appearance with nm ridic- ulous solemnity which only a monkey can affect. I have heard tales of trav- elers and surveyors in which monkeys in cocoa palms make themselves disa- greeable by throwing cocoanuts at one’s head with malicious intention, but it never been my nx?ermm.u to find the monkey any more dangerous than the preivie dog of our western plains, I secured some very fine black, long- haired monkey skins, such as are made into $40 muffs and ladies’ capes for 0o apiece in silver. In the many small Indian villages through which the mahogany roads passed I experienced notking but kind- dess uufl hospitality for a small price, 25¢ being one night's bill for the outfit, including four animals, two In- dian servants and self. Many of the men were away fromi home, in the ma- hogany cuttings, and most of the wo- men, while keeping their vegetable gardens and cornfields in good condi- tion, found time to manufacture.rope, hammocks, saddle-bags, horse gear and hats from the **pita’ or fiber of a vavie- ty of cactus which covers the low lands in the greatest profusion, The cactus leaf is cut and rolled and pressed between flat stones, to squeeze out all the pulpy matter, Ihu mass of fiber is then dried in the sun and sepa- rated into threads, to be twisted and fashioned as desived, Isaw some very seen among those sent to fereign coun tries, which sell on the spot for They are nearly as fine as lacework, and so skillfully ave the different col- ors braided in that they look like em- broidery a few feet distapt. il i 2 U4 | CONNUBIALITIES. A Kansas bridegroom sola balis of popcorn 10 his wedding guests, and the papers are in- clined to think his action detracted from the dignity of the occasion. Ex-Sheriff T. C. Kennedy, of Mound City, IlL, eighty years of age, has just maeried a \vo:’nuu nearly fifty years younger thun him- self. Mrs. Henry Lamphere ram away from her husband in Ohio fifteen years ago. ‘'he other day he found her in Hoston. She had been married twice, while ho was living with his thizd, and so they didn’t recriminate much. Baron Joachim Carl von Scheilihs, of Ger- many, is in luck, huvlnr lately succeeded in warrying a Chicago girl. Frank Saddler, of Clieyenne, was married the other day to a lady from whom he.was divorced thirteen years ago, Eaci had been married since the divoree had been granted. ‘What divorced an Indianapolis couple was the fact that the husband insisted on calling the baby Beelzebub, The judge held that such a man had no business with wife or children, It was a funpy coincidence that Abraham Shearer aud his wife, of Canada, ran away from home and met each otgr on the sawe duy, neither knowing that the other was golug, and both acting & part to deceive. e + A Matrimonial Epidemic. Judee Wray, of Walton Springs, Greene county, Georgia, keeps a horse saddled and bridled to answer the calls of couples bent on matrimony. There is an opidemic of marringes in that county now, | HOCH SWEETNESS 1Y A NAME A Lady Writer Ciiticises Shake- spearo’'s Famous Aphorizsm. 'TWAS BARNUM HIT THE TRUTH. People Do Love to bo Humbugzed— Follies in kashion and the Crude Daubs W hich fass ¥or Art. Everything in a Name. ‘When Shakespeare wrote: “What's in a name! that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet,” Ho ponned a failacy thoroughly in koeping with the character into whose mouth he placed 1t—that of a romautic, love-sick girl, who, viewing the future through the rose-tinted glasses of inno- cence und youth, pictured to hersclf an ideal world where honor, truth and jus- tice were the luws which governed it, where beauty and merit were the badget of nobility, where sentiment was reason and wishes reaiity. She dreame beautiful, tender, rapturous dream. Alas, for the awakening. Through all life’s vuried ranks and phases, observation and experienge con- clusively prove that there is overything in a name, writes Mamie L. Hatchett in the Lincoln Cell. Take the business world—the crowded mart, the world of trade and traffic. Do we want to buy a pair of shoes, a bolt of cloth,n piece of furniture,un 1strument of music, a farming implement, a barrel of flour, a jar of pickles ora round of bacon, we want it to bear the stamp of a good brand—to be sure that it was issued from a reliable establishment, the repu- tation of which is well known and is a guaranteo of ity l}uulll\ . 1n matters of ‘dress we do not attach half the importance to the material out of which a gprment is made as we do to the name pf the tailor or modiste who hioned it; and these sell-con- scious -worthies, appreciating their power and importance, contrive tha their customers shall pay well for such passports into the world of fushion, and vractice many harmless frauds upon the suddenly rich and mushroom as- pirants to socinl recognition, Muny an innocent debilthnte, who, by some stroke of fortune. has been rcceublv elevated from the ranks of a shop girl to that of an bétress, would haye her faith badly shuken and her self-com- placency sadly’ upset, if she knew that Mle Worth gdwn,” for which she had paid a cool lhuuunud and displayed in triumph to her envious and less fortu- nate neighbors, had never seen Paris and was made by an obscure dress- maker in her own city, not ablock from her door, Shrewd tradesmen in country towns and the rural districts are keenly alive to the gou:uc\' of & pame. Théy visit towns in the vicinity, buy for & song job lots of old goods, out of season and out of style, which the city mn,rblmnt had rather throw away than give space on his shelves, brings thsm home, displays them to his unsus- cting customers as “‘the latest,” just vom New York, purchased with great —a paine aftor a careful selection from “‘the largest and most fashionable houses in the city. T'he cheat is never detected by the simple rustics, and the farmer’s daughter experienc as much pl in wearing her *‘new bounct” made five years before as does Eer vity cousin whocatches the “fashion in its christ- ening robes, All seusible people are inciined more orless to ridicule the theory of the “faith cure,” yet we practico it contin- ually in our duily actions, and in noth- ing more than in this question of style. The cut of & man’s cout o the shupe of u woman’s bounet matters livtle so long us the wearer is satisfied—self convinced that it is from competent hands and he- youd question the corvect thing. The true inwardness of the whole matter is very aptly expressed in the comic song commencing: “If I koew it came from Paris, Lovely Paris, darling Paris, T would vuy it,”" said Miss Harris, “If 1 knew it came from Paris.” Tn the more elevated fields of culture and education, the significance of a name is 1o less apparent. Do we want a minister, we want & man who has at- tracted attention, a man who is likely to make himsolf hoard outside the folds of his immediate flock. Do we want a teacher, we want to know the name of the university from which he or she graduated, There may be a dozon men and women within a stone’s throw of our own dwelling who are possossed of more natural intellect, more \,lmmu,,h and scholarly attuinm bnts; yot b they chance to be sclf-taught or guined their knowledge within celebrated walls, their superiovity not acknowledged and their claims are sot aside for the less competent but more pretentious stranger. In no profession are the harmtess de- coptions of nomenclaiure more preva- lent and neces: than iu the practice of medicine. The physician who calls disenses by plain ISnglish names, and writes his prescriptions so that they cun be understood by any one except his apothecary, is estimated by the vulgar mind as an ignorant pretender—‘‘he knows no more than thug do and will” get no more bills for telling them wlnu the already know. The suc- cessful practivioner is cureful to impress his patient with his own infalibility and ommscience. He (the patient) is ill unto death with a malignant, uncail- able malady—a bad cold, perhaps, or a derangement of the liver. The patient dies—it was Providence; gets well—it was skill, In either case, Dr. So-and-s0 is a wonderfully clever man und aston- ishingly well up in his profession. The world of art has heretofore of- fered one of the richest fields for the unserupulous and speculative 1mitator. and thousands of modern cheap daubs have been palmed off on the ignorant b, ut fubulous prices, as the wark of he Old Masters,” If lhlphuul. Mich- eal Augelo, Leonard de Vinci and the other great spirits who flourished after them, could return to earth, enter tho sumptuous homes of our American no- bility and bebold the creations acered- ited them, their sensations would be divided between pride und aftounish- ment—pride at the sacredness with | which = they were held and the priceless estimate set upon them; astonishment, both at the amount of work which they wore claimed to have executed, and which could not, under any circumstances, have been crowded juto the space of an ordipary life-time, and at the widely different character of the styles an subjects, proving them to be the con- ul,pilun- of different minds and the representatives of different schools. In the literary fleld nothing can be accomplished v\?l.lwut aname, A man may be as gifted as Byron and as versa- tile as Shakspeare, but unless he is known and has created a sensation in the world of letters, his productions Asure I have no market value, and ho finds it it to scouro publisher upon any Reputation is move often the \ec nlu)t of fortune than of true merit and untiring effort. and thousands of youthful aspirants, who enter the arenn th such spirit. hove and confidence, ow weary with waiting and ‘‘hope long doferrad” and gradually drop out, leaving the ng and fortunate wrestle for the 1s. Cheap notoriety is often mistaken for fame, and while it 1s to the latter as the foam of a soda fount to the bubble of a moun- tain stream, it often serves as an entroe 10 the r«mdm" public and offers an op- portunity to the astute author to take the tide at its flood and launch his barque ou brouader seas.
