The manager o. the Bisbee Opera
House has decided to greatly improve
that theatre for next season. The stage
will be enlarged SO as to accommodate
first-class attractions and an effort
will be made next year to secure all OF
the good shows that stop at Tucson,
going and coming from California.
The Murray and Mack Company
played to the best audience OF the
season here. THE Irish Pawn
brokers'" which Is in way parody
on the Murray and Mack show, took
second honors in ,nIs regard. These at
fractions play at the popular priced
theatres in California and the East
Those plays which draw big houses
and play to raised prices In the East,
meet with row after row OF empty
seats in Tucson. "a patron OF the Tue
son Opera House was heard to ask an
other the other day what this meant.

said he. "A theatre is certainly good
mirror of the tastes and tendencies
of a city" The question was answered
by both men coming TO the conclusion
that the people OF the vest did not
tane life SO seriously and that they
went to the theatre to be amused
rather than to be entertained, so to
speak
The Tucson Opera House has but
two attractions booked for the balance
OF the season. THE Prisoner of Zenda"
and Rupert OF Hentzau" played by
the same company will be here on
April and 10. The Christian will
be presented here on April %. "hile
these are the last, they are by no
means the least of the attractions that
have been presented here this year.
They are both first clas- companies
presenting popular plays. The Chris

here last season. Both attractions
should draw good houses.

Reckless Shooting
South OF the City,

Complaint Is frequently made of the
reckless shooting of guns south of the
city and just beyond the city limits.
Unless the properly constituted au-
thorities take measures to stop the
practice some one will fall a victim one
of these days.
Oniy a few days ago the inmates of
the pest house had to hunt holes or
crawl on the ground TO avoid conflict
with flying bulels. The public high
way" just beyond the city limits are
dangerous because of the criminally
careless practice referred to. 1t is to
be hoped that the authorities will ex-
ert themselves to stop this reckless
shooting before coroner will feel call
ed upon to hold an inquest.

Making Artificial Butterflies.

Artificial butterflies are sometimes
manufactured for sale as rare speci-
mems to natural history museums and
private collectors. says the Chicago
Daily News. Their preparation mainly
consists in spreading with a cancels
hair brush very thin gum or paste over
the wings of ordinary butterflies and
then sprinkling over this certain deli.
cate metallic powders of various colors.
By this deft manipulation very COM
mon butterfly can be transformer into
one that is extremely rare. The fraud
came to light through an alleged speci.
men of a red admiral. the butterfly so
widely noted for its brilliant red and
white hues. Sometimes the white
specks turn blue and n specimen in
which this transformation has taken
place is regarded as great rarity.
The t.ealer knew this. and naturally
his red admiral had many blue specks.
Unfortunately for him the purchaser
was suspicious, and by the use of 4
magnifying glass and damp brush
quickly discovered the fraud.
