An inoffensive comedy called Thoroughbred"
by Ralph Lumley, occupied the attention of a
fair-sized crowd at the Grand last night and
on several occasions threatened to become very
funny. 1t is filed with trivial incideats contin-
ually promising to develop into something really
comical. 1t would make a lively one-act farce,
but suffers somewhat when separated into three
acts and no cenimatograph views or living pic
lures to relieve the waits between the curtains.
Charles Frohman has sent out a talented COM
pany of clever. actors with Thoroughbred, ,"
nearly every member being OF the sort that strike
one as having individual merit. There's the
wonderfully versatile Seabrooke assuming a char
acter beset with as many hardships as a young
husband in house-cleaning days. Seabrooke al
ways reminds one of the comic pictures of a
Woodworking %Irishman struggling to set up a
stove in the conservatory. 1t requires a clever
actor to stir up enthusiasm in these piping cam
palgn times and seabrooke several times last
night made the audience entirely forget politics
and enjoy a hearty roar of laughter; On one
faced Charley Butler and William Norris. They
gave a burleSque of a minstrel act, singing
ridiculous songs and introducing a few old ''es-
with a glee club selection. but 1t was not forth
coming. Butler is the sassy little Englishrnan
pany here last year. Maggie Fisher, another
capable .Thoroughbreder," also made a hit in
Cissy's support. Edgar l.. Davenport, who gave
q faithful impersonatlon of the stage American
last night, brought down the gallery once when
he mentioned the stars and stripes, although 1t
is yet a week before Mark Hanna day comes.
He also makes love while mixing a salad a la
Tafy in the late lamented 'Trilby.'' There are
several pairs of lovers in the play who expose
who enjoy that sort OF amusement. A real stage
coach at the race track is one of the realistic
oughbred', will continue at the Grand the re-
mainder of the week, with a Saturday matinee.

Mark Murphy is what he has often been de-
noninated--a funny little man. He and his
neighbGrs opened at the Park yesterday for the
rest of the week and they entertained a couple
of large audiences as a starter. Mr.. Murphy
plays Dionssius Caesar O'Dowd with that same
Irish humor which made him a success in the
higher-priced theaters some years ago. AS
Romeo in the masquerade scene in the second
act he Is especially funny. There isn't much of
a plot to the piece, but Murphy doesn't need any
more than there is. The rivalry between O'Dowd
and McNab for the affections and fortunes of a
wealthy widow form the basis of the story.
Patrick Miles plays the opposite part of McNab
in good style. The company is well dressed and
capable. The specialties are entertaining and
there are plenty of them. Mr.. Murphy's songs.
dances and Irish witticisms form a bright part
of the second act. The piekaninny band is seen
in its liveliest dances and its other characteristic
features. The colored Youngsters are clever and
amusing. 'ODowd's Neighbors'' viii be seen

FUNDS FOR NEW MEXICO.
Appropriations Made at Last Session
OfCOngress for Governments of New
MISUNDERSTANDING Expendi.
lures Limited.

For the information Of all whom it may
concern, and at the request of several in
terested friends, the New MEXICAN to-day
takes pleasure in reproducing the sec.
tions of the last legislative, executive
and judicial appropriation bill passed by
congress, approved May %, 1896, max
ing appropriations for the territorial
government of New Mexico for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1897. Such sections
are as follows:
For the government of the territory
of New Mexico: For governor $4,000;
chief Justice and four associate judges,
at $4,000 ea,h; secretary, $1,000; and in
terpreter and translator in the executive
office, $500, $4,000.
"For contingent expenses of the terri
tory, to be expended by the governor,
$500.
"For legislative expenses, namely: For
rent, light, fuel, ice, stationery, record
files, record castings, printing, postage,
clerks, messenger and porter, and
incidentals in secretarys Office; compen-
sation of officers and members of the
legislative assembly, mileage, printing,
stationery, record books, rent, furniture,
and incidentals for legislative assembly,
$4,000: Provided, That the next session
of the legislative assembly of the terri
tory of New Mexico shall commence on
the third Monday in January, 1897, and
each succeeding session thereof shall
commence on the third Monday in jan
uary of every odd numbered year there
after: Provided further, That no other
officer of either house of said Legislative
assembly shall be elected or appointed or
paid out of any moneys appropriated by
the congress of the United States, or by
the legislative assembly of said territory
than such as may be provided for by the
laws of the United States, except trans.
lator and an interpreter.
"For repairs of the adobe palace at
Santa Fe, New Mexico, $4,000"
It will be perceived that under this act
the next session of the territorial legisla-
ture will not commence till the third
Monday in January next and that the
number of legislative employees is ex-
pressly limited. This Limitation forbids
the election or payment by either house
OF the legislature of more than seven en-
ployes each as follows: One chief clerk,
one enrolling and engrossing clerk, one
sergeant-at-arms and door-keeper, one
messenger, one Waterman, one translator
and one interpreter.
In addition TO the foregoing the 3lst
legislative assembly of this territory en-
ployed fifty-three minor oficers-twenty-
three in the council and thirty in the
house. Under the new appropriation act
it will be useless for anyone to apply for
appointment to any positions in either
house beyond the seven places named.
