Whi n the northern tourist used to
stri! the town, the first things the pa
trtutie citizen who was doing the hon
ors would proudly > ti er him uji against
would im the Alamo plaza oliili stand,
with its attendant divinity, the far
fumed i hili queen.
"Now, sir, you've seen the historic
Alamo tlie old cathedral and the mis
nous ; i d got a whiff of our ozone," the
eit eo n iiigld remark with righteous
pride, "and tonight you must come and
eat a Mexican supper and see the chili
queens The chili queens are one el nnr
lie t noted attraction.—the hi am. did.
dark eyed senorifas. you know "
The tourist generally knew This
wit in tiie late eighties, the palmy days
of the eiiili queens, when their fame
had spread to the larg rn< rtbein eitu -
Son e very tiiusieal versi about them
had appeared in tin- magazines, and in
the newspaper sketches tl y were ideal
ized as stunning creatures, wiib the
rielt, brown skins i f the tropics and the
languorous grace mid is".vitehing black
eyes of Spanish donnas
Wlien the citizen and fin tourist

She hastily rearranges the flowers in
her hair and the big bouquet at her bos
oni and Isiains on the new mrivi.ls with
sparkling eyes.
The citizen addresses her with an
easy familiarity.
"Hello, Cbiquitu! How’s tricks?'
“Hello, sen nr Tricks arc bneno.
How is my amigo, the senor?”
They uli used the Spanish dialect
when they Imd special customers, de
spite the fact that other tongues came
easier to some of them by nature There
were six reigning queens ou the plaza
in I8>1N. and 0110 of them was of Ger
man descent and another was bom in
the island where the sod is highly green
and there are no snakes The other four,
however, were seuoritas of the genuine
Mexican variety
Ohiquita s eyes sparkle with their
most brilliant luster, and, with a quick
succession of flu -biug smiles, she uses
her red lips and white teeth to gi od ad
vantage ou the tourist while she en
gages in badinage with the citizen.
"You’re looking prettier than ever
tonight, Ohiquita 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
you before. ’’
Then Ohiquita uses her tinkling laugh
and slaps (he citizen gently on the
cheek
"So son-y, but 1 have not a single
nickel to give you. Hut take this (lower
instead.
She transfers a big rose from her cor
sage to the citizen's buttonhole The
tourist is liegmuiug to want his share
of the fun
“Yes, I heard of you up there, and
that s one reason I came down here—to
see you, you know. ”
“Oh, my! You must have a flower
too. '
Her hands linger lightly ou his coat
as she carefully pins a spray of honey
suckle ou, anil the tourist begins to be
lieve that be must have comedown here
for this. He is enjoying himself very
much.
"Well, let's begin ou our chili pep
pers, suggests the citizen "You say
you never ate one before? We had better
take a liftle of everything, then, so you
can say you ‘did’ San Antonio right.
Bring us the whole bill of fare. Cliiqui

The queen turns sharply to the slimy

OLD BARBERS ARE SCARCE,
After Ki-aehlDK 40 They Usually lletlre
or Filter Another Occupation.
“Did yon ever notice, ’said a veteran
tonsorial artist, who had shaved New
Haveners since 1878, to a New Haven
Register man, “that you only see a few
old barbers?"
"Why is it?"
“There are a good many reasons,”
answered the veteran knight of the
blade "I suppose the chief one is that
a barber’s b ind becomes unsteady after
he gets to lie about 40 years old and he
has to give up. A good many barters
drink hard, and that makes their nerves
and bauds unfit for service, and they
retire before they cut their customers
throats Still, 1 will say that in all mj
experience of 87 years 1 never saw a
man badly cut by a barber, not even by
an accident for which the barter was
not responsible. '
“What 1 (comes of the barters after
they retir<
“Oh, sou. of them go to the poor
house," he i' died, with a twinkle in
his eye, “ano some of them, who liave
saved their wages, buy little places and
live on them. |>erhapH running a farm.
Borne of them, of course, go into other
business, [x rhaps bookselling or else be
come insurance agents. I liave heard of
bar I sirs who gave up the business and
became butchers. This isn't such a wide
difference from tiieir former business
(what are you laughing at?) us it might
seem. No, 1 don't mean that they learn
to carve |ieople or oven to skin them
the barter business, but they learn how
to handle a blade skillfully and they
make first class meat cutters. ”
