A Plea, for the Kids.

Next Thursday the circus will be
here. A circus is something no boy or
girl should be permitted to miss
Within the circus tent there is q mys.
tic realm which, to the childish mind,
contains the acme of all that is wonder
full, great and bewildering. The great
red posters which come in advance
leave filed every young head with
visions of perfect heaven of delight
and amusement, and nothing can fill
the childish heart with Sd much gloom
and abject dependency as the idea of
being debarred from casting wide eyes
about this wonderland. Every parent
should see that their children go to the
circus if in the bounds of possibility. II
may happen that there will be few
youngs ers who will find no way to get
in. There are enough kind hearted gen.
tlemen in Weiser who can spare q dol
lar, that, if an object is made to look out
for kids who haven't the money to gain
admission, and each takes one of them
in, all will get to see the elephant Let
US have no children standing outside
the tent, like a lost soul outside the
pearly gates, with visions of the bOva-
lapus swallowing co!ored victims and
the whangdoodle whistling through its
ri bs and swe atiug blood in their heads,
and woe and gloom and agony in their
hearts that they cannot see them.
Don't let life seem all black to the
kids. See that they get in to the cir

AttacA ed to the petition was the re
commentator of the city health Of
ficer that the petition be granted as II
was necessary and conducive TO The
better health of the city.
City Engineer Wimberly also recon-
mended that the petition be granted
stating that there was enough sewer
pipe on hand for such purposes. The

tended south TO Sixth street.

lowing resolution:
BE it resolved by the city council Of

point q com mittee of three to be select
ed from the voters and tax payers OF

MEXICAN SOLDIERS DESERT.
They Skipped From the Juarez Jail
as They Went ON Guard Duty.

| Last evening betweeo and O'Clock
| just after the guard at the Jail in Juar
ez had gone on duty, the guard decided
that they were tired of guarding pris
ouers and skipped out for this sideOf the
river. Four of them started away arm
ed with their guns with bayonets set,
| while the fifth man left unarmed. The
desertion WAS OF discovered Tor some
time and the deser tiers had a good
start, going in the direction of the New
Mexico line. The officers and several
policemen started in pursuit but failed
to find the soldiers who are believed to
have cross ed into the United States be-
fore morning.
Col. Tava-es said this morning that
there were some soldiers missing, but
tn at they were not yet considered de-
serters and would not be 80 considered
if they returned in three days. hut he
said they had violated m litary orders
and would be published If they shove
up before the time limit for desertion
expired. He did not care to give any
details of the affair.
All the soldiers who deserted were
new men on this frontier and we're
serving sentence in the army for
some penal otfense. The citizens OF
Juarez are better against the police OF
the N litary in sending cnnvicts to
Juarez as soldiers. They think the gov
eromeat should s-nd only paid soldie
who re eve bitter treatment 1htn con-
vict soldiers. The citizens do not
II me the soldi rs for deserving, say
ng they are put on duty As guards and
are watching every opportunity to es-
cape the mseives as their task is even
harder than that of the prisoners they
are guarding, as when they are not on
guard duty they are confined
in the barracks. 1t Is asserted
that one of the deserters was cor
pOral.
The Jail in Juarez this morning was
beir G guarded by a policeman and
nothing had been heard of the desert
ers.
There was no shooting and no one
was Injured in the escapade.
