SHOW WORTH THE MONEY.

There are moving picture shows
and there are shows that sonuld keep
moving. Beatty Brothers are not of the
last named class. They furnish peo-
pie with an entertainment that wins
the admiration OF the people Tney
were here two years ago and The
Herald states the plain truth in say
ing they gave full value in every In
stance. In the first place their moving
pictures are up-tO-date and comprise
high class artists. Secondly, the ma
chine used is of the best and the ef-
fects are as good as can be obtained
in Denver or any other large city.
The Herald would not make this state
men did 1t not know from past exper-
ience and from general account that
every word is true. Therefore do not
get the Beatty Brothers mixed up with
amatuers. They are the genuine thing
when it comes to moving picture en-
tertainment.

STATEHOOD LOOKS FAVOR
ABLE FOR NEW MEXICO

WASHINGTON. d. c., Feb. S.
New Mexico stands a chance of be-
ing admitted into the sisterhood of
states without having Arizona tag
ged to her. The session yesterday
was long and full Of interest. AS stat
ed In yesterdays dispatches, the first
surprise came when the committee
accepted Foraker's amendment pro-
yiding for separate vote by each of
the territories of Arizona and New
Mexico on the constitution to be adopt
ed by the proposed state of Arizona.
That provision mad scarcely been made
a part of the bill when Mr.. Bard pre-
sented his amendment which had orig
inaIly been offered by Mr.. Patterson
and which provided for the admis-
sion of New Mexico as state without
addition Of Arizona. This amendment
proved to be the point around which
all subsequent proceedings Of impor-
tance revolved. 1t was at first adopt
ed by the close vote Of 40 to AZ. This
vote was taken while the senate was
sitting as a committee of the whole.
and was reversed In the senate prop
er by the tie vote OF 3s to 49, Subse-
quently the senate decided by a vote
of 3S to 36 to entirely eliminate New
Mexico and Arizona from the bill and
this result had hardly been announc-
ed when Mr. Bard in a slightly chang
ed form renewed his proposition for
the admission OF New Mexico as a
state and this time the amendment
prevailed by a vote Of 40 to 81. One
of the affirative votes was, however,
csst by Mr.. Beveridge, in charge OF
the bill for the purpose of moving a
reconsideration Of the vote. He was
prompt In entering such motion az
soon as the result was announced but
his motion was laid on the table by a
] vote Of ~ toG3s. The effect was to
