Plenty of speciaIties.

Despite the remarkable line of plays
presented by the King Dramatic Com
pany and the gorgeousness of the stage
settings, the lighter portions of the
performance have not been neglected.
The various specialties introduced
during each performance are said TO be
far beyond the standard established by
repertoire attractions. In The Bohe-
man." the opening bill Monday night,
they will be seen to the best advan-
tage During the action OF the play an
interesting series OF specialties will be
introduced. Among them will be the
songs and dances of Su.ly and Moore,

in connection with his application to
the Board. On careful perus4l of
this record it seems that Bennett was
properly convicted. The Identified
ton that he was the party who COM
mitted the crime is complete by the
man who was robbed and another man
who accompanied him. The jury
which convicted Bennett could not
have done anything else than that
which it did do. Having said this, it
will afford me pleasure if the Governor

scored an immense success. wherever
1t has been presented, cur many ex-
changes speak of this attraction in the
highest possible manner, and there can
DE no doubt but what its former sue

large audience will greet the players
The costuming and scenery are said
to be very fine. the play carries one
back to the year 1920, when to refuse

Irrigation killing OFF the Great Cac-
tus That Is ArizOna's Flower

Irrigation killing Off the Great Cac-
tus That is ArizOna's Flower
Phoenix Correspondence New York Sun.
The bringing of water to the arid wastes
of Arizona and the consequent evolution
from desert to garden Is causing the ex-
tinction of one of the strangest plants In
the world. At recent session of the terri
torial legislature the Cereus giganteus, the
great cactus, better known as the saguara
and peculiar to the soil of this territory,
was made the official flower of Arizona.
Not many years will elapse before new
choice will be necessary.
When the first franciscan fathers Jour-
neyed north from Mexico into Arizona they
carried back reports of the great cactus
which covered the plains of the new coun-
try, and told about it's food value to the In
dians. Now. as the art of the American
has reclaimed. foot by foot, the former des-
ert, and the magic water has made orange,
peach and apricot orchards and great fields
of alfalfa, the saguara has been driven olit,
and only in spots where water cannot De
placed can the odd plant be found.
On the rocky, gravelly mesas, the sagua-
ras, the largest of the cactus family, point
their candelabrum-like arms straight to-
ward the sky, not infrequently attaining a
height of sixty feet. The body of the
saguara, sometimes two feet in thickness
Is composed of thin pieces Of porous wood,
arranged in the form of a Corinthian COL
umn, covered and held together by the out
side hbers Of pale green. At some dis
tance from the ground large branches put
out, while the whole surface is covered
with sharp. prickly thorns. A large, white,
sometimes purple blossom comes forth ear,
ly in the spring and ripens into a pear.
shaped fruit by the last of June. Inis fruit,
the petahaya, tastes like mixture of rasp-
berry and fig, and is highly priced by both
Indians and Mexicans. Part Of the fruit
Is eaten while ripe, and the rest is dried in
the sun or boiled down to jam.
Until the advent of the missionaries to
the Papago Indian tribe some twenty wears
ago, the gathering of the saguara was the
occasion of the greatest orgy of the year.
From the fruit highly intoxicating te, err
age was made. with this thu Indians
drank themselves into a state o. frenzied
intoxication During these feasts a lumber
of the braves were frequently killed The
saguara Is short-lived, although tradition
has given 1t an age measured by centuries
and usually begins to decay at the base
before attaining its growth. Moisture Is
fatal to it, and as soon as it receives a con-
stant supply of water, decay is rapid

Purely a Business Question.
SKIRTS OF THE FUTURE.
Prophecy That Twenty Years Hence
Knee Dresses Will BE Worn.

From the London Telegraph.
When they are grown up. the young ladies
of the future. WHIP were born with this CEN
tury, will look back with amazement on the
manners and dress of the days when their
mothers were girls. If NJ. Octave Uzanne
be true prophet, evolution in things femi-
nine will move. not by, degrees, but by re-
markable bounds between the present year
and 1920. The long dresses Of today will
appear far more quaint to the girls of that
period than do the fiounced skirts of the
eighties to the modern woman. In 1926
says M. Octave Uzanne, the feminine
prejudice" which causes ladies' except, Of
course in ballets, ito object to displaying
the calves of their legs" will have become
entirely extinct. Rational Dress" as ad-
vocated by extremists, will not, however,
prevail. The knickerbocker will not oust
the petticoat but the latter will never fall
below the knee. On the other hand the
present clinging skirt will be abolished,
and dresses will grow fuller in width as
they decrease in length. M. Uzanne be-
Heves that these revolutions in costume
will be promoted by hygienic considera-
tions He Is a violent opponent Of the long
skirt, on the score of its being a mlcrobe
collecting and distributing agent In the
name of the laws of health, he likewise is
persuaded that the corset has but a few
years to live, and will in 1920 be preserved,
If at all, in museums of discarded instru-
ments Of torture Finally, wells will also be
tabooed for hygienic reasons. as they act
as nets for microbes, which are gathered in
their meshes and thence are conveyed to
the mouth and eyes,.
Suddenly breaking away from health con-
siderations, M. Octave UZanne indulges in
flights of far more fanciful prophecy. In
1920 ii seems, occult arts, necromancy and
astrology win flourish as they never did
before except among the Alexand1ine
Greeks at the commencement of the Chris
tian era. Astral influence in which,
presumably. M. Uzanne believes, will be an
article of faith with the ladies of 1920 and
they will dress accordingly" They will be
aware that black predisposes them to Sat-
urnian melancholy; that blue subjects them
to lunar fancies; that gray devotes them to
Mercury, with his gift Of pecuniary pros
perity; that red places them under the
Olympian sway Of Jupiter; that golden vel
lows associate them with the sun, the giver
of worldly success, and that, lastly, green
ish yellows bind them wholly to Venus
and her love philters." The science of PLAN
etary influences will, In particular, be
strictly followed in evening dresses In
jewelry similar practice will doubtless
be observed. The art of reading the mean
ings of preGous stones. and the study of
their respective properties and virtues will
be carefully mastered by ladies and conse-
uuently by couturiers. Generally speaking.
however, M. Uzanne. who seems to be par
ticularly partial to the Alexandrine period,
affirms that the fashions of 1920 In femi-
nine jewelrys will be "Neo-Greek."

The commissioners had the crude gov

The number of well managed geological
gardens in this country is increasing, and
the collections are becoming more extensive
varied and attractive. Meanwhile. the de-
mand for elephants, giraffes rhinoceroses
river horses, sharks, boojums and other
notable wild beasts is steadily growing
stronger. But the supply from the jungles
and the waste places Of the earth is un-
fortunately, on the wane. 1t is gratifying
to note, however. that the breeding of me-
nagerie animals In captivity has been prac-
tised with excellent results in recent years.

Lives Where Head Rests.
From the London Chronicle.

Where does a man live when he Is on
boundary? The old problem has cropped
up again In the revision courts. One re-
vising barrister solved 1t by ruling in two
cases that man lives in that parish where
his front door is situated But what IL the
imaginary line run under the middle Of the
step and come out at the back of the
house? Something very like this actually
exists at Norwich, in Cheshire. and as a
consequence the occupier of a small cott age
has for many years claimed, and. We be-
Iieve, actually exercised. the right of voting
in two parliamentary divisions. Perhaps
the best general rule for settling boundary
disputes is one which was formulated at
the Clerkenwell sessions In 1915. A man
who lived In two parishes became a
parper, whereupon a dispute arose as to

which should maintain him. Models Of
the house and the bed on which he slept
were laid before the court that it might as

settled where his head ('being the nobler
