THE CHILI QUEENS.
THEIR THRONES WERE IN SAN AN
TONIO'S HISTORIC ALAMO.

F.A|»rrl«llf Ornciouii to the ToinUt From

Wlieii the northern tourist used to
strike the town, the tint tilings the pa
triotie citizen who wax doing the hon
or* would proudly xtcer him np iiguiiist
would In; tlie Alamo plaza chili xtand,
with its attendant divinity, the far
fumed chili queen.
“Now, xir, you've xeen the historic
Alamo, the old cathedral and the mix
xioux and got a wliitf of our ozone,” the
citizen would remark with righteoux
pride, “and tonight yon muxt coiue und
eat a Mexican supper and see the eliili
queens. The chili queens are one of onr
most noted attraction*—the beautiful,
dark eyed senoritax, you know.”
Tho tourist geuerully knew. This
wax In the late eighties, the (minty days
of tlie chili queens, when their fame
had spread lo the larger northern cities.
Home very musical verse ulxuit them
had appeared in the magazines, und in
the newspaper sketches they were ideal
ized as stunning ereuturex, with the
rich, brown xkms of the tropic* and tho
languorous grace und bewitching black
eyes of Hpunish donnas,
When the citizen and the tourist
stroll up to the gay lisiking chili stand
with ilx big red, green and yellow lan
terns and its scintillating pyramids of
cheap but gorgeous glassware, she
promptly shuts up the s|sirty young
man who is bandying slang with her or
quits haggling with the chili gorged
bootblack over change.

her huir. and the big bouquet lit tier bos
om and ts-ains on the new arrivals with
sparkling eye*.
Tho citizen addresses her with an
< usy familiarity
‘‘Hello, Cbiquita1 How’s tricks?"
"Hello, scuor. Tricks are bneno
How is my amigo, the seiior?”
They all used the Spanish dialect
when they had special customers, de
spite the fact that other tongues came
easier to some of them by nature. Thcro
were m reigning queens oil the plaza
in 1 *v», and one of them was of Ger
man descent and another was born in
the island where the sod is highly green
and there arc no snakes. The other four,
however, were senorita* of the genuine
Mexican variety.
Gbiquita's eyes sparkle with their
most brilliant lusti r, und,*witli a quick
succession of flashing smiles, she Uses
her red lips and white teeth to good ad
vantage on tho tourist, while she en
gages in badinage with the citizen
"You’re looking prettier than ever
tonight, Cbiquita. I’m glad of it, be
cause we want to make a good impres
sion on my friend here. He’s from away
up north, you know, and he’s heard of
yon before. ”
Then Chiqnita uses her tinkling laugh
and slaps tho citizen gently on the
cheek.
"So sorry, hut 1 have not a single
nickel to give you. But take this flower
instead ”
She transfers a big rose from her cor
sage to the citizen’s buttonhole. The
i tourist is beginning to want his share
i of the fun.
"Yes, 1 heard cf you up there, anil
that’s one reason i came down here—to
see you, you know ’’
"Oh, myl You must have a flower
too. ”
Her hands linger lightly on his coat
as she carefully pins a spray of honey
suckle on, aud the tourist begins to I*;
licve that he must have comedown here
. for tills. He is cnjoyiug himself very
, much
‘ “Well, let’s Is-giu on our chili pep
pers,’’ sugg’sis the citizen. "You say
you never ate one before? We had ls-tter
take a little of everything, then, so you
can say you ’did’ San Antonio right.

A few weeks ago the editor was tak
en with h very severe cold and caused
him to be in the most miserable condi
tion. it was undoubtedly a bad case of
la grippe, recognizing it as dangerous
ho took immediate steps to bring about
a speedy cure. From the advertise
ment of Chamberlain's Cough Uemedy
and the many good reccoinmemlalions
included therein,we concluded to make
a llrst trial ot the medicine. To say
that it was satisfactory In its results,
is putting it very mildly, ludeed. It
acted like magic and the result was a
speedy and permanent cure. We have
no heaitency in reccemmeuHlng this ex
cellent Faugh Uemedy to anyone alllict
