It seems strange that sullerers troui tne aoove uisoruers should not cure themselves with llos- tetter's Stomach Bitters. This is a medicine which whets up the appetite, regulates the Dowels, sieauies me nerves aud induces sound sleep. Those who take it find that it cures dyspepsia, anil there is no bad taste in the mouth In the morolug, no feeling ol weakness afier the day's worK is uone. well worth a trial. 1 PERSONAL MENTION. i.ee Wallis is in Engine igain.

I have been iu receipt recently of eral letters regarding yellow fever this republic. It exists of course, fact ou the coast it is raging, and there are many deaths from t lie dread disease. Tho seaport towns are quar antined, and though the newspapers ake very little reference to the mat ter, yet i'- is unite an open question, howc .i r. Theie is no yellow fever iu any other part of Mexico and I under stand it Is uever known in tliecily on account of the high altitude. My only wonder is that there is anything ap- pioachiiig good health at all here for the sanitary arrangements are vile and is tho dirtiest place I was ever In, The streets aro thronged with pro- ssional beggars day aud night, from the tiny child to tho old, old person Some atllicted beyond measure and escription, the lame tho halt and the blind, many of the latter, all with out stretched hand aud the whining cry nil eentavo." There is no law heie restricting them as in Guadalajara and other cities, allowing them to ply their avocation but oue day III the week. Oi.e s charity becomes sadly blunted utter a week or two and one pines to turn them with their importunities over to the police. Yet the City of Mexico is withal do lightliil, historical and lnterestb g. The Alameda Is one of the mostheautl ful parks I was ever In. 1 was at once impressed wi'h its line trees, tho llrst real trees I'vo seen in the republic. I isked u prominent resident here if there were uo forestry laws and why when trees could' be grown In tide ouiitry, there was .-ueli a luck of them , besides wood is fearfully expensive, six dollars and a hall a cord is the low st it can be bought and that la the whole sale price to the railroads? Ho an swered me with the l ilmitable Mi l- cau shrug, "Madam, olden sate." Happily the climate precludes the ne cessity of fuel lor heating purposes and all the cooking is done with chaicoal. I was amused tho other day to no tice how children can utilize things to their own pleasure. Two little chaps wero playing opposite my window. They had ouo ol the largo Mexican hats with a strong string attached; one was sitting ou it and the other served as horse dragging him along the pave ment. Every lock Is put ou upside down aud every key turns the vvr ug way. This Is a rule never diverged from, the object of which, Is beyond my compre hension. Still it Is something to livo In a land whole strawberries, green corn aud cucumbers are In market the entire year round. Tho views from Chupulte- pec and the hill ot lluadalupo are ex quisite In the extreme, aud to rest the eyes ou that grand mountain, or rather volcano, Popocataptl, llslng half way to paradise is to realize thut everything we have seen before of mag nificent mountain scenery must pale when compared to this glorious sight. If no other pleasure were to be found In this ancient laud of the Aztecs, the ourney to Mexico would be fully re- lulled after seeing this. Fancy a big hotel lu tne uuiteu States shutting and locking Its outer doors at tell o'clock at night; the watchman sleeps on the Hour btloie the portal and opens to all who kuock with the quaint old fashioned knocker. Once or twice since I came I think ho must have uceii very sounu in nmum ( for I've heard the rat-a-lut-tat of some . belated guest ringing through the night air for half an hour or more be fore the door was opened. The shops ure very Fienchy and are fine, "just fine," as wo uregomaus say. 1' rencli goous are cueup an imn is but littlo duty paid on them, nut American goods have prices attached that turn one's hair gray. I had a parcel sent me from New ork that 1 recelv.d uf.er a great deal ol unlang'- ing r-d tape and a very long wait, not n E ARE SHOWING THE NEWEST 3 and handsomest line of Wraps 3 ever shown in Eugene.

V; URUFFPfl- I to speak of tho harrowing part of pay lug about six times the value of the contents; about the same lime I re ceived a letter troui tho donor, making ei.cuses, saying mat, 1110 .uexicuua were so afraid that anything from tho United States would gel Into this old republic that they placed all sorts of dilllcultles iu the w ay of shippers. The Btreet car service is excellent, and curious, llrst and second clues cars, height cars, milk cars and funer al cars. These last are Mark with a line poster pagoda, sur:iioun'ed by a cross, under which Is a bier. This ar rangement Is much cheaper than the usual hearse and carrliii;es. You order a funeral car to be at the neau-st point I t 1 tho residence, the c-kt Is put on 1 ard and tho mourners lollow In oth er cars, regular or special. Special cars can bo hired the same as ouo would 0 carriage, for tt part or a whole day. It would be invidious in me to at tempt todescribo the city or its num berless sights to tie seen. I've "uight- sawed'' until I feel cross-.'yed. It Is a great big, beautiful city with every thing but cleanliness to mako It ideal, lluwever, in tho course of time, oven this blot will be obliterated, for a mar velous canal Is already built and the diggiug of sewers will soon begin. In any other country but Mexico the end would belli view, but hero every thing takes time; It is the only thing that is 110 object. Smoking goes on eveiy where. There Is 1 ill one spot exempt, and that Is the Pullman Sleeping Cars. I referred In a recent, letter to tho curiuus custom of naming the Cami llas or saloons. Ueru it Is not confined to tho cantlna; all the shops havo their own distinctive title. There Is one hiihor dasher shop, called "The Uen tie man," a Jewelry store "La Vlobtta" and many others too numerous to mention. There is no such tiling as tho hotel bus. There seems but littlo competi tion. Indeed in the wuy of hotel warfare, and they are wonderfully In dependent. If you are not satisfied, you are politely bidden adlos, but there Is no trying to make you more coiufortahle. A few moro weeks of Mexico for me and then I'm nit to tho North. The Wanderer, SKiXAL OF UBEKTY. Will Ho Produced at Tonight. Tho PaiKer "The Signal of Liberty" which will be produced tonight at The Parker, promises to be one of the dramatic novelties of the season. A story of in tense heart interest from beginning to end, and Introducing elaborate scenic ellects as well, is an unusual event and will 111 all porbablllty pack the house troui pit to dome during the engage ment hero. Tho aeenes of tho play are laid in Cuba, prior to and during the present war, and the drama is there- lore of intense interest to all Ameri cans. The llrst act takes place iu tho city of Havana, showing tho palace of the governor-general and the arrival of the ill-fated Maine. Act second shows the gunboat Wilmington at anchor in Havana haibor, repelling a riotous attack ou an American olllcar. Act third, tho explosion of tho submarine niiuo and the wreck of tho Maine. Act fourth, the sinking of the collier Morrimao In Santiago channel. Act llfth, the bombardment of Moro castle, Santiago, and the destruction of Cur vera's lloet by tho American squadron. These Buperh sceulo ellects, produced lu a realistio manner, In conjunction with un absorbing story, will provo a nuignut to all theater gr.3rs, who believe that tho Stars and Stripes is the "Flag of Destiny." ThoJ,coinpany Is exceptionally strong and tho valley papers nro unanimous In praising the production. As tho play Is ou one night only, they will be greeted by a paoked house. For Sale at a Bargain.
