THE TWO DESERTeRS.

Major F. II. Hardie, of the Four
teenth United States cavalry, stationed
at Fort Wingate, accompanied by Col.
j. s. Van Doren, arrived here last night
on passenger train No. and are COM
fortably quartered at the Alvarado
Major Hardie is called here to ap-
pear as witness in the investigation
to be made this afternoon of Frank II.
Bush and George H. Smithover, pri-
Yates, charged with having deserted
at the fort on the 18th inst
Bush and Smithover were arrested
held in the county Jail. They have en-
ployed w. Z. Heacock as their attor-
ney. He will bring about habeas cor
pus proceedings and try and secure
their release.
At these proceedings Assistant Unit
ed States Attorney f. L. Medler will
conduct the case for the war depart
ment, and the circumstances, which
are very unusual, will be investigated
thoroughly.
MdJOI I1dluic is Iue OHCer IN COM
mand at Fort Wingate and very con-
servative gentleman, and does not
think 1t his duty to talk of the case,
as 1t is now in the possession of the
courts. He thinks that it Is very
strange that these men should desert
at this time, considering that their
term of enlistment will be finished in
a year and that they are likely to be
taken to the Philippines. In case they
were taken to the islands it would be
great trip, as they would have the
opportunity of seeing a great deal of
the world and at the same time draw
pay. 1t would be more of a pleasure
"Trip than campaign of war, as things
are very peacerul on the Islands az
present.
The Fourteenth is ordered to the
Philippines and will probably embark
from San Francisco about August /.

performer.
u. r. Strachan caused hearty laugh
ter by catching bees at the picnic.
Speechmaker Nat Greene added to
the attractiveness of the surroundings
by his stately and attractive appear
ance. Chaperone Billy Berry was here,
there and everywhere. His watchfur
eye prevented any blunders in the per-
formance of the company. The best
number on the program, according to
the opinion OF the pleased audience,
was the song composed by Mrs. Berry,
"A Trip to the Orient, or the >Ffckle
Actor" The leading part was taken
by Mrs. Berry, assisted by Miss Grace
Houghton, Miss Ethel Bowser, Miss
Virginia Finch, Messrs. Lee Mitchell,
Thomas Walsh and Frank Hungate.
The song is captivating and was re-
ceived with popular esteem. This is
the first time the song has been given
in pubic. having just been copyrighted.
A novel number of the program was
the animated song sheet, sang by Mr..
Elmer, and assisted by twelve young
ladies, whose heads were unexpectedly
thrust through large sheet of music,
extending the width of the stage, at a
timely interval. Piano accompanies
were Miss Hawthorne and Miss Bertha
Loebs. The musical part of perform
ance was under the supervision of Mrs,
Berry and the dramatic part and ar
rangement under j. w. Barnes.

success

Mr.. Fall contended that a report from

consideration. President Chaves held
that the report could be made at any
time as privileged report. Mr.. Fall

The familiar old holdup game. where
one man buys while the other helps
himself, was worked In Mike Mandells

this morning, just after Mr.. Mandell's
nephew, a boy about 16 years old, had

Two men came in, and seeing the
boy alone, one asked to see some over
alls The overalls were at the rear of
the room, and the boy suspicioning
nothing, went with the man who wish

lovers by her sweet and charming
voice. The songs and recitations of
Francis Elmer showed that the young
gentleman was stage artist. Mrs.
Rosa Berry and Mr.. Elmer appeared
IN an original ragtime piano duet
which was heartily applauded until
