INTERESTING RELICS
pair of Old French Duellno Pistols
With a History

II. s. Beach has just received a
pair of old French dueling pistols from
his father in California. Mr.. Beach
said that his father got them in 1874
out on the Pacific coast. The two pis-
tolls were carried in the Mexican war
by Col. Catterson of the Tennessee VOL
unteer regiment. They are Of the very
finest of material, the barrels being
fine steel and the stocks richly inlaid
with gold Mr.. Beach prizes them very
highly, and has written to Senator Bate
of Tennessee to see if he can learn any
thing more of the early history of the
pistols. He will soon place them on
exhibition in his store in JuareZ.

At THE SHOW
The Star Boarder will BE Given Again
Tonight

The Star Boarder'' at the Myar last
night was attended by only a fair sized
audience. The play is a farce comedy
with not plot to speak of but is full of
specialties. The jokes were all OLD
as were their songs, many of which
were presented by the West Minstrels
here a short time ago. Chas. H. Boyle
as the Star Boarder and Bert SwOr as
the rube created a laugh every time
they were on the stage, Boyle especial
ly by his prankS. SwOr did not have
chance to show his talent. He has de-
lighted many Ell Paso audiences by his
clever monologues and dances but was
not up to his standard last night. The
show Will be repeated tonight.

Hoyt has had many successes, but
he never scored success as pro-
nounced and emphatic as in "a

re markable comedy has broght
him more dollars than all his other
comedies combined, and did more
to bring him prominently before
the public and to establish him as
the most successful playwright of
modern times.
This seasons production of the
"Trip" bears the distinct trade
