Will be the Leader

AS Colorado is a neigh5or of New Mexico
and its resources and contour are similar to those
of this Territory, it is interesting to note what
has been accomplished along industrial lines in
the Centennial State. In Colorado as well as in
New Mexico agriculture stands at the head as a
wealth producer, although few people look upon
either commonwealth as an agricultural section.
In gold, the Centennial States production for
1903 is almost 81, 100000, below last year owing
to labor strikes, and the Silver and coal produc-
tons show a similar falling off. On the other
hand, the value of the beet sugar products has
increased from 81 DDS, 900 in 1900 to $1,000 600 in
1903. In other agricultural and in orchard pro-
ducts similar advances are shown indicating for
New Mexico the most permanent and the most
promising lines of development Mining is
good thing, for Colorado's mineral products
amounted to $720OOOOO last year Or about 80
times those of New Mexico's, but it is after all
agriculture and manufacturing that make great
commonwealth.
There is a vast amount of good sense in the
last clause of the above clipped from the New
Mexican, and while we should not miss any OPP
portunity to advance our mining and other inter-
rests it is by development Of our irrigation sys-
TENS and the settling Of our plains by cultiya-
tors of the soil that our greatest and most per-
manent prosperity must come

BIG DRUM IN THE ORCHESTRA,
IL Is one of the Most Familiar and
Important Features of the
Shows.

Few persons realize it, but the mar
who beats the big drum in the orches-
ira is one OF the most important mem
bers of the musical aggregation" said
an attache of one of the local theaters
to a writer in the New Orleans Times
Democrat, land as a matter of fact we
could not get along without him at this
day and time. While the drum is one of
the most ancient of musical instru-
ments, being positively primitive, it is
yet, even in this advanced age, one of
the most useful. Men were beating on
the tightly stretched hides of wild ami
mails and getting a sort of music out of
it long before they had learned to blow
the simpler melodies out of hollow reeds.
The drum idea came into existence
long before men ever dreamed of
footing horns. Humping on a coon
skin, or a skin of some other kind, was
the only music of a great many primitive
peoples, and even 10Y this kind Of music
is played while some of the island tribes
go through their ceremonial dances.
But / was thinking of the great use
to which the drum is put nowadays In
theatricals. We could not get along
without it and as a result the drummer
is paid a salary next in amount to that
of the leader. He is well paid and earns
his money. You have no doubt observed
that in performances of a certain kind
the drummer is very much in evidence.
Take the special stunt of the sort we
find in vaudeville, comical stage falls.
dances, any kind of turn where there is
a violent and sudden change, and you
will find that the drummer will play an
important part. He is the man who
marks the time of the change. He al
ways hits the drum at the right time.
He is in perfect accord with the per-
former. 1t takes a man of some talent to
do this. You have nc idea of the trouble
we have in finding men who can do this
work as We would like to have it. 1t has
developed into quite an art, this bust
TO tapping the drum at the right
time, and hence we experience some
trouble in getting men to do the work
just as we would have it done.
That's why we are forced to pay the
drummer a good salary. He is an i'm
portant person in the orchestra, and
don't you make any mistake about it.
And | may say that he knows it, The
public may overlook him, but you can
not say as much Of the theatrical man
ayers, for he is a mar they have to reck
with"

An apparently simple idea upon
which recent inventors have toiled is
that of moving pictures that can speak.
The words and other sounds are easily
recorded by the photograph, and NOV
ing objects are pictured by the cinemat-
ograph. but it has seemed well-nigh i'm
possible to make the two kinds of appa-
ratus perform their work in exactly the
same time. 1t is claimed that the diff
Guilty is at last overcome by the "chrono-
phone" of Gaumont and Decaux, two
French inventors. The cinematograph
needs considerable power, while the
photograph requires uniform speed,
but perfect synchronism has been Sc
cured by operating the moving picture
machine by a motor receiving electric
current through the p%honograph shaft
and automatically regulated by the turns
of the latter. Edison's early dream of
mechanical reproductions of operas and
plays seems destined to be realized.
