to judge by the perennial success of the

one. The topics which the play treats
of-Wall street speculators-are Of even
more interest today than when the play
was first written, if one remembers the
recent panic that occurred in stocks in

armed, there were fewer gun plays than
were expected in this drama of New Mex

at the end of each act, when it was nee
essary TO COW a half-breed ranch fore
man and his Mexican associate whose
villainies were cattle thefts and the ex-
tortion of money from the owner of the
ranch.
The play is original and amusing and
three of the cowboys introduced were

Eddy kites are easily sent up without assist
ance To raise a box kite it is wise to let out
$50 200 feet of string; have this lie exactly
in line with the wind, and get Some one to hold
the kite lightly until the wind catches it and
begins TO lift. At the instant it is released ff-
teen twenty feet of cord should be pulled in
That performance has the same effect the
kite running. If the kite shows disposition
to dive, let out a little twine quickly.
When one kite is fairly raised a second one
may be sent up and tied with four hundred or
five hundred feet of cord to the string of the
first. Then after line is paid out, third
kite may be attached in IT, same manner. The
added kites help lift the main cord, and thus
permit loftier ascents. Cameras, thermometers
and other instruments may be fastened either to
the uppermost kit or suspended from the line
after only little of the latter has been let out
When a flag is to be sent aloft by means of
kites one edge should be tackled to a stick suffi-
ciently heavy to hang VERT ". and the upper
end of the stick tied to the kite string when the
kite or team has gone up only short distance

who fly kites do so for recreation and not for
purposes OF research.
At the shops one can find great variety Of
kites Some are shaped like yachts and others
like eagles. These are rather expensive, how
ever. The more common FORMS both in the toy
trade and among scientists, are the Eddy and
box kites. Both OF these are tailless which fact

Before this stage OF construction is reached
certain other measures must be taken, in order
10 give the kite a slightly bulging front. The
