BlJou-Mason and Mason, In "FrItz and

Fun and foolishness are the keynotes
OF the musical comedy, Fritz and Snitz,r
by Mason and Mason, at the Bijou theater
this week In fact. from the time the
curtain rises until its final fall there is
not thing to 1t but nonsense. ~
While the Mason brothers are decidedly
clever as German dialect comedians,
their speciality Of appearing as exact
counterparts is becoming impossible This
is due to the fact that Charles A. Mason
is getting too heavy to be able to make
himself resemble Harry L. Mason. This,
Of course, will not interfere with their
work as comedians, but will make 1t nee
essary to abandon the idea which Shaks-
pere utilized in the Comedy Of Errors, u
and which has been a favorite with play
writer's Of all chimes and times.
Several clever musical specialties are
introduced in the comedy. The most
catchy Is perhaps 1.-THE German Recruits, y
by the Masons and a chorus. What A

VIRTUES OF HONEY.

They Were Known Even Before the
Koran Mentioned Them.
''There prOceedeth from the bellies Of
bees liquor OF various color wherein
Is medicine for men," says the
Koran. But the virtues OF honey were
known before the Koran said any
thing about it and by countless peo-
pies besides the desert folk Of Arabia.
Not only has it long been used as food
and medicine, but many drinks Of diff
'fering potencies and fiavors have been
made from It. In England a fav0rite
drink Of the old time was mead. which
was made by the fermentati0n OF the
liquor obtained by boiling In water
combs from which the honey had been
drained. In the preparation Of sack
mead an ounce OF hops is added to
each gallon Of the liquor and after the
fermentation a small quantity OF
brandy. lIetheglIn or hydrOIneI Is
manufactured BY fermentlng with
yeast q solution of honey favored with
boiled hops A kind Of mead IS much
used IN Abyssinia, where II Is carried
on journeys in long horns. In Russia
drink called '1lpetz" II made from
the delicious honey Of the linden. The

BAPTIST CONVEN-

New Mexico Baptist Meet Hero
On NOV. q iOr Three
Days Meeting.

On Nov. % the New Mexico
Baptist convention will convene
in Alamogordo. This conven-
tiOn will bring our Baptist breth-
rem from all parts of the terri
tory. General business of Bap-
tist matters are to come before
the meeting, such as the mis-
sionary work, and the hearing OF
the reports of all kinds of Bap-
tist church work. The conven.
tion will hold for three days.
We think that it would be
well for some of US, if not all u
us, to pick up the trash about
our premises and burn it SO that
our visitors may see that we ex-
pected company and appreciated
their coming. Our merchants
will shine up their show windows
and make things look fresh. All
the people of New Mexico are
watching Alamogordo, and with
eyes upon us we must have on
our best Sunday looks next week
(only one week..
Let's give our Baptist breth.
rem a warm welcome.

CATCHING SOFT CLANS.


An Interesting Occupation ON the
shore at Low Tide.
As we walk along the shore at low
ti'le, ON the lookout for seaweeds or in
teresting animals, little jets Of sea
water win be seen squirting up from
holes In the sand. Let ua dig rapidly
down under one OF these tiny openings
and we will catch the spurter. the COM
mon soft clam, but If we are not quick
enough he will burrow so rapidly as to
disappear entirely and only send last
spout Of water into our faces, as If in
defiance. Place the shell in glass OF
sea water and when the clam gains
confidence he viii extend from his shell
the long tubelike siphon, and the two
openings in the end Of 1t, with their
fringed borders, viii be seen.
Now take compound microscope or
magnifying glass and watch the
water above the siphOn. You will see
that 1t is moving. With the minute
life forms it contains the water sweeps
in swirllng currents toward one Orifice
of the tube and plunges suddenly down
it. Then, after passing over the gills
and body Of the clam and giving out
n0urishment, the water Is expelled
through the other tube, and we see it
rising slowly from the opening. If,
however, the clam takes fancy to
contract his shell and so hasten this
motion we will see little fountain
shoot up and sprinkle the surroundings
just as they were observed to do on the
shore.-St. Nicholas.

FOOT CUT OFF
Mexican Boy Jumping On
Moving Train is Made
Cripple for Life.

Enrique Hogatis, Mexican boy,
lost . foot Tuesday afternoon by
falling under o moving freight
train. 1t is said that the boy
with others, Mexicans and Amer
leans, were jumping on the cars
and riding through the yards
when this boy fell and had a
foot cut off.
The practice of boys jumping
on and riding moving trains
through the yards at this place
is common thing and it is no
surprise that one should get a
foot smashed off. If a few of
them would get their heads cut
off maybe the others would take
a hint as to the danger as to
quit such foolishness.
