"COUSIN KATE" WAS GOOD
DREW LARGE AUDIENCE AT THE
ELkS' THEATER LAST EVEN
ING.

Hubert Henry Davies production,
Cousin Kate" which drew a larse
and delighted audience at the Elks'
theater last evening is perhaps the
most unique of the recent New York
successes. Il is comedy drama,
where the climaxes. and the plot, for
that matter are sprung with a sud
denness which for a second throws
the audience into quandary as to
what ii all means, and the next mo-
ment explains itself with an accom-
panying thrill Of pleasure. Alberta
Gallatin In the title role, needs no
words of commendation as to her
ability. as she is already to well and
favorably known in the theatrical
world. Her fortress is in emotional
work, and though cousin Kate does
not afford the talented actress the
opportunity to display her genius in
this line as much as many other
plays do. which she has starred In,
the conclusion Of the second act
serves as a mild demonstration OF
emotional powers.
Miss Gallatin was ably seconded by
Wilfred L. Roger, her clever irish
lover The rest of the cast suppor--
ed capably. interpreting their par'5
in a most satisfactory manner.

CELEBRATED AUT0IST EX.
PECTED HERE DECEMBER 20
FROM LOS ANGELES TO NEW

FEAT UNDER PROGRESS.

Uness the auto world is badly mis-
taken there will roll into Albuquec-
que about Christmas time, a REQ
Mountaineer, sixteen horsepower
touring car, containing two begrimed
automobilists, who are bent on cross
ing the American desert, a feat yet
unaccomplished by any motor cars.
The men are Percy F. Megarel, of
the Buffalo, n. Y. automobile club,
and David +. Fassett, an expert me-
chanic from the REQ factory at Lans-
ing, Mich. They left Los Angeles on
the 5th of the month and are sched-
uIed to reach Albuquerque on Decem-
ber 20, remaining here over the 21st,
and reaching Las Vegas on the go.
According to the schedule received at
this office, they will reach New York
on January II, which seems very
much out of the question to one "a
miliar with the obstacles to be en-
countered on the desert, as well as
in the middle states during the win
ter. Some autofsts consider the feat
impossible in the time scheduled.

from an artistic and histronic, as
well as financial point of view.
The committee on the New Years

committee on attractions reported
that they had closed negotiations
with H. Ray, manager of the noted

MORE MEN VICTIMS

MENT AND LAND FINALLY IN

There seems to be no let-up on the
part of Denver employment agencies

Fe railroad company, for which the
applicants pay the employment con

the most part, that the promised job
is a myth, and they are out of pocket

square meals a day.
Last evening the police arrested
Will Shaffer and II. l.. Wood, two
men who were sent to Belen by a
Denver employment agency. The un'
fortunates had walked in from the
cut-off, penniless, as usual, with the
information that there was no work
there for them. They were locked up
on the charge of vagrancy. 81 wonder

FREIGHT WRECK
NARROWLY AVERTED
Yard SWitChman Signals
Approaching Train With
Switch Light.
NO SERIOUS DAMAGE WAS DONE

What might have proved disas-
trous wreck was narrowly averted in
the Albuquerque yards of the Santa
Fe early last evening.
The presence of mind Of switch
man probably saved two freight
trains from coming together in the
darkness, the result of which is not
easily determined, had it occurred.
Just about dark one of the loca;
switch engines was engaged in kick
ing cars about near Grand avenue.
In doing this. several cars were left
standing on the main track at one
time while others were switched to
a siding.
About this time the sonorous whis-
tie of freight train sounded, coming
from the east. AS there was no light
on the head end of the freight cars,
it is not improbable to state that had
it not been for the cyclonic thinking
of one of the switchmen aud his pres
ence of mind. the heavy freight train
would have crashed into the box cars
in few seconds and reduced them to
kindling wood causing a blockade of
the line at the same time that would
have required many hours to straight
en- out.
Quick as a fash the switchman
trains from coming together in the
light from it, jumped back to the head
of the freight cars and swung it
about in lively fashion. The engineer
of the approaching freight saw the
danger signal, slowed up, and the dan
ger was over The switchman re-
turned the light to the switch and the
incident was forgotten.

ALBUQUERQUE AS A

Las Vegas Merchant to IS
tablish Wholesale House
in Duke City.
PLANS COMPLETED IN THIRTY DAYS

Charles Ilfeld, the Las Vegas
wholesale merchant. returned home
this morning. after having spent sew
eral davs i'm the city on business. Mr..
Ilfeld is considering the advisability
of locating a distributing house in Al
buuuerque. and during the past few
days held several conferences with
officials of the Santa Fe regarding a
building site near the Santa re tracks.
whether the site was fully decided
upon. could not be learned as the par
ties interested would neither confirm
nor deny the report, but Mr.. llfeld did
venture the assertion that the matter
would be fully decided in about thirty
days. and that he would return to
Albuquerque in about that length of
time.
Just how large a house Mr. Held
expects to build here is another mat
ter that could not be learned this
morning. but 1t is expected to be quite
large, as Mr.. Ilfeld is said to have pur-
chased forty cars OF goods with which
to stock up on.
Charles Ilfeld, known the country
over, as the merchant prince of
northern New Mexico, is one of the
oldest and largest wholesale mer-
chants doing business in the territory.
His present place of business is one
Of the largest and most important at
Las Vegas, and he has been strongly
identified with the building up of the
Meadow City, having lived there
many years, during which time he has
amassed an Independent fortune. The
evident interest that Mr.. Ilfeld has
taken in Albuquerque shows that he
has great faith in its future prosperity
and its prowess over the southwest as

The boys of the foot ball team
were called to President Tights Of

with fear and trepidation. They had
in mind some of their escapades OF
their recent trip to Las Cruces. They
were, however, relieved when Pres
ident Tight made no reference to
their trip, and instead, invited them
to dinner next Tuesday.
PERHAPS no improvement at the
university will be more appreciated
than the fitting up of one of the large
rooms in the science hall into a mu
scum of minerals. Twenty-Five or
thirty dust proof cases with seven
shelves each, have been placed in the
room. Here the large collections OF
minerals owned by the university
