the Fitz.immons-Corb ett fight" said
Manag er Walker of the opera house to
Round About last night. ''The price
charged fer electricity in this city is
more than the veri scope company can
stand. Last week the Bistner company
had Telegraph in the opera house for
i've nights and the bill from the elec-
trio light company was 500. After a
close estimate it was found the current
had been turned on for III minutes
during the entire five nights and this

little more than $l.16t per minute.
To give ali the pictures in the verie-
scope at this rate it would cost from
500 to $75 for electricity alone, and as
this charge is so far above the charges
elsewhere it will be impossible to in
duce the company to visit Ell PasO."

Harte threw over the mining camps,
immortalizing their gulches. their hills,

The school board is in a quandary.
A China boy has made application for
admission in the public schools. The
board finds itself in the same condition
