AN ADAAILESS EDEN.

Will Colorado ere long have an edu- cated class composed of all ths women of the state, and a menial class com posed of all the men?
 Will Colorado eventually have pop ulation exclusively of women?
 Such Were the questions humorously asked yesterday after comparison of statistics in the office of the state board of health and in the office of the state superin'i5 ndent of public instruc- tion. Though many more females than males are born in this state. there are two deaths of males to every death of a female. In every graduating class there are more females than males, The ratio in the totals being six females to one male.
 The state board of h alth yesterday gave out these figures of deaths dur ing the present year. to date:
 January. 362 males. 27S females: Feb ruary. 323 males. 249 femal5s March, AIS males, 256 females: April. 315 males, 1S9 females: May. 314 males. 233 fe- males: June. 375 males. 2S females; Ju ly. 257 males, 164 females.
 In every one of these months. there fore, the deaths of males have largely exceeded the deaths of the females. Compared wi;h the fact that the rising generation is compos of more females than males, as is shown by certain eX tracts from the school census. these figures are really alarming. In this county alone the school children. classed by law between and 21 years of age. number 19.515 females and 1S.154 males The state superintendent of pub lie instruction declares that many more females than males are taking the full course of the schools and are gradu- a;ing. The logical deduction is that soon there will be an educated class of women and a menial class of men. and that later there will be more women than men In the state, in the ratio of. at least.

AND THE SAW BUZZED.
Uncle Josh Sprueeby Showed a Big
House What An Entertaining
Old Farmer He Was Last Night.

VIII M. Mason was really clever as
the honest old farmer, and he won the
sympathies of the audience from the
| first.
The william has the same relative role
as an umpire at the base ball game
popular hatred. F. 81. La Rue made
himself chsrmiagly unpopular, which
shows he was good bad man.
The band which Ell Paso street knew
as hayseeds In the afternoon, appeared
at night in dress suits as an orchestra,
and played stirring music. They
played we'll.
"Uncle Josh Spruceby" is a good
play of it's kind. 1t is the sort Of play
one expects from the name. Uncle
Josh is lovable old chap, with chin
whiskers and witticisms. and the grace
of a mechanical toy.
Aunt Jerusha is queer mixture of
fire and vinegar and scolding and tenn
per, and looks the part. Right fire.
quently throughout last nights play,
they brought in those subtle touches,
whole world kin, and by them endeared
themselves to the big audience which
filed the opera house.
1t was q neck and neck race for popu-
lar favor between the living, breathing
stars of the company and the wh1rl1ng
buzzing saw in the saw mill scene.
The saw won by tooth. The intense
realism of the scene in which the saw
was seen to dvap tage was appreciated
to the full, and brought sslvos of APP
plause from thoroughly thrilled
house.
The play is of the old fashioned sort,
and appealed to the people who saw 1t
by the very familiarity OF scenes which
cannot be seeh in real life within 600
miles of Ell Paso. But nearly every
one who looked on last night
in that great middle west
vaguely known to Us out here as "the
east" where they have real farms, and
real trees, and real rains. and real
dams, and real idyllic pastoral farm
life, and so Uncle Josh and his people
appealed to us.
There was a villain, with deep
back, who bowed at the wrong time,
like real swells don't bow: an idiotic
Dutchman, who had q lot OF Boer
common sense concealed in his dialect:
and there was the girl who was pretty
and who was wronged, and the other
girl who wasn't either; and the
mortgage on the farm, and the
''pspers" and all that goes to make up
an old time melo dramatic play, full
of:deliciously dreadful shivers and tear
bringing scenes of psthos.
Az Interesting thing about the COM
pany is that they were all artists
artists, and WINNIE Paul,
as Ssllie Spruceby, had no hesitancy
in saying my uncle has just been
hanged. While they are getting ready
for the funeral, I'll just sing lit e
song called 'Goo-goo's Gone to getSome
or words to that effect.
Miss Heyel Wood was pretty and
winsome and delightful as a country
girl with city education. She is the
one who Is wronged as Nancy Spruceby.
