Though playing under great difficult
ties the presentation of Rio Grande by
the Mesa Dramatic Club last night was
pronounced the best theatrical per-
| Torrance ever given before a Mesa
audience They were greeted by full
house and the work of the cast though
amateurs, showed concluSively that
they appreciated the well deserved
compliment and had the talent to give
performance seldom if ever eXcelled
by those who could scarcely claim ia
miliarfty with the foOtlights- The eX-
hibition has been postponed from time
to time which gave the major part of
the cast ample time for thorough re
hearsaI while the play itself is one of
engrossing interest. To criticise indi-
vidua1 members would in this instance
not only be uncharitable but unjust as
all did remarkably well and it is to be
hoped that this performance is only a
forerunner of many good things yet
to come 1t is excellent training for
the young people and pleasant diver
sion for their elders

NEW PIGMENT FOR ARTISTS.
A Rich Color II Esade from the smut
Of the DAT and II of
CIobre Tint.

A Scotch artist has discovered that
a pigment of great teauty Of color and
fastness can be made trom the smut
of the oat, says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat. The color is a deep. rich
umbre shade, sometimes approaching
to sepia in tone. The smut is a fungoid
growth, which is often seen in the shape
of deep brown or sepia-cclored spore
dust on cats and other cereals. Speci-
mems Of the pigment painted on paper
as water color have withstood the ex.
posture to direct sunlight for man,
months, and shown little change ir
strength of color when subsequently
compared with unexposed duplicat.
specimens. In mild, diffused daylight
the color remains quite fust and uual
tered. The gbrownish-b,ack powder
taken from smutty oats is very dry and
light in nature, and when moisteued
with few drops OF alcohol and then
mixed with rrcilage and water, it can
be effectively handled. In its deepest
tones it is Of a fine sepia shade, deep
ening to brown black. When diluted
with water or Chinese white it gives
pleasing tints OF fat brown, of the
pheasant-egg cast. The new pigment
has been received with much approval

ANCIENT POLITICAL "RINGs."
Monopoli4t1 Tlourlshed Centuries
Ago In Rome end Egypt M
They Do To-Day.

The evil of monopolies and rings
was known to the ancients, Aristotle,
referring to them in his Politics" and
then, as now, it was found necessary to
hold them in check by legislation. The
monopoiist was in Roman law called q
Dardanarius. and published under the
Lex Julia de Ammonia, says London
Answers. Monopolies of clothing. fish
and all articles of food were prohibited
by Emperor Zeno under pain CT con-
fiscation and exile; so that it is certain
that the rings" Of the ancient days
were as mischievous as those of to-day.
At Athens law limited the amount of
corn a man might buy. The earliest
recorded instance we have was a corn
"ring."
There is an ancient tradition that
the king who made Joseph his prime
minister and committed into his hands
the entire administration of Egypt was
Apepi. Apepi was one OF the shep-
herd kings and ruled over the whole
of Egypt as Joseph's Pharaoh seems
to have done. The prime minister, dur
ing seven years of remarkable plenty,
bought up every bushel of corn beyond
the absolute needs OF the Egyptians
and stored it. During the terrible fam
inc that followed, he was sure to get
his own price, and bartered corn sue
cessfully for the Egyptians money,
cattle and lands, and taking one-dfth
for Pharaoh. made him supremely
wealthy. It was not merely provident
act. but a very polite one, his policy be.
ing to centralize power in the mon
arch's hands.

Admiral Dewey cut the cable
himself at Manila and though he
offers no explanation for doing sc
it is believed that his purpose was
not only to prevent the Spanish
governor-general from commune

his plans by cabling protests to
their governments. He made i,
impossible for them to summon
