They are en route to San Fran cisco, where they open at the Califor- mia theater.
 ''The Hottest Coon in Dixie'' is un- like any other colored show on the road. It is a funny musical farce-com edy of the most hilarious kind. and the programme includes about all the most popular features of vaudeville, com edy, burlesque and comic opera. Fully twenty of the catchiest popular rag time ''cOon" songs will be heard, and a plentiful supply of good specialties are also interspersed. The Hottest Coon in Dixie claims the distinction of having the best chorus of coIo-ed sing CTS in the world, numbering eight ladies and eight men. It is in the rag time melodies that these matchless singers are heard at their best. For sixteen weeks at the New York Casino these singers were the rage last sum mer.
 There is plenty of fun provided by such comedians as Will H. Proctor, Bob Kelly, Fred Carey, Billy Cole Phil Miller, William Grundy. Ed Harris and Norris Smith, and the comediennes, Miss NeaIe Hawkins, Clara Belle Carey Bessie Hamilton T;es..ie Kin ney, MolIie Minor, Sallie Douglass, Maude Gruudy and Georgie Do5bs.

At any rate, he is out of the way of the ''llickers' who are anxiously awaiting his return to know whether they are to remain up in the air without any visible means of ele- vatfon from the ground to the upper stories" or are to trust in the build ings taking q tumble to themselves to reach the average human foot step. The city council and the owners and tenants of the various buildings on Cortez street with the assistance of the engineers of the grading outfit are having a warm time trying to adjust the grade to the wants of the various buildings. and we are not promised very cold weather for some time to come in that locality.

KILLED A HOBO.
Tramp at San Marcial Shot by a Rail-
 road Employe.


 At San Marcial last Wednesday even ing, two shots were fired in quick sue cession in the railway yards. An in- vestigation revealed a dead man lying down on the river bank with bullet wound through his body. says a New Mexico paper. 4 coroner's jury was immediately impaneled. Joe Harris. one of the three companions of the dead man, testified that the party of four were around camp fire drinking alcohol mixed with coffee. Tie de- ceased got pretty drunk and started to town for more booze. While going up the yards to pass a string of box cars the deceased met an old man carrying a dinner bucket. What passed between them is not known, but the deceased began mauling the old man. The lat ter pulled a pistol and fired two shots one of them proving fatal. after his as sailant had ran a little distance. Then the old man continued on south. Let ters on the dead man showed that he was going under the name of George Smith and that he was selling snide jeweIry, purchased from G. O. Still, of Carthage. Mo. He was a professional tramp. about 24 years old, and had a letter from a party in Canada. Harris stated that the dead man recently served thirty days in Albuquerque for assaulting a policeman.
 There the matter rested until Thurs day morning. when Barney Mcclure, track walker residing on the mesa, a highly respectable old gentleman, came in and admitted to being the slayer. He bore marks of blood on his face from the cruel blows of his assailant, but had no knowledge of the death of the hobo until he reached town. He will be eXhonerated from all blame no doubt
