CIRCUS COMES TOMORROW.
Wonderful Mid-air Acts With the
Greater Norris & Rowe Circus.

Norris & Rowe are celebrating the
goth year of their partnership and
for the present travelling season have
engaged more and varied acts than
they have ever before. It is pro-
posed that the tour will mark a new
epoch in the history of this popular
organization. 1t is fact that no
other circus has as loyal following
as have these young showmen. For
lalmost a decade now they have
steadily grown in size and upon every
side one hears murmurs of the re-
markable progress of Norris &
Rowe. Probably the highest salaried
mid-air acts in the business today
are those of the celebrated four fly
ing Banvards and the noted Leffel
troupe of aerialists. The former
consists of two young men and two
young women, and the latter of
three daring athletics acrobat5.
Both acts are performed at the very
extreme top of the huge tent. The
Banvar5s have what is called a "hy-
ing" act and flying it is. The grace
full daring aerialists fly through the
air from bar to bar, the men cast
the young women from one to the
other and they turn single and
double somersaults in re-passing. 1t
is one of the pretticst as well as the
most sensational numbers that has
ever been accomplished. The Leffel
trio perform upon aerial horizontal
triple bars. The act is hard enough
to do when the bars are on the
ground, but placed high in the air

Gus, but the clean limbed athletes

plause that greets their efforts.

gas being made by a generator In
which the principle for the manufac-
ture of fume was application of
heat. In the new experiment, the
heat was omitted and the fumes
made by chemical process. The
scheme was originally discovered by
two Maine men, but 1t has not so
far come into wide use. The college
experiment indicates the chemical
plan to be the better.
Permanganate of potash, II
ounces, and a quart of formalderyde
was the mixture, brought together
in a flve-gallon earthen vessel. Ar
effervescence resulted in which the
fumes that issued were extraordi-
nary and long continued. Anthrax

former experiment, survived the
latest test. The experiment demon
strates beyond doubt that the
chemical process is the more effective
as well as considerably cheaper, and
more simple in application.

AN OLD glNfEPIECE.
StilI Ticking on the Minutes After n
Hundred and Ten Years.

Indiana was state and while In

The clock. which has been in the
family OF Mr.. Yandes for SO years,
and which was hammered and carved
out by the hand OF August Hoft,
clockmaker OF Lancaster, Pa, per-
haps a quarter of a century before,
Is well preserved, and although none

Mexico. With the ending of the next
Legislative Assembly we will have
five volumes of session laws since

nitely what the law is upon any par

The number of retail liquor licenses
issued in the various counties of the
Territory in 1905 was 585, of whole
sale liquor licenses 90, nj of gam.
bling licenses 800, and the amount OF
income from them all was $164,412.
Figures rs to the exact proportion of
ldnis amount derived from gaming H.
censes are not at hand, but from sim
liar statistics from all but five coun-
ties for the yea 1906, it appears to
be less than one-half. Two-thirds of
the net amount received from the
three sources is, by law, paid into
the district school funds, and one
funds.
l am aware that one of the argu-
ments brought against the abolition
of licensed gambling is that it will
cut off some of the income from our
schools and increase taxation. If this
were true, 1t is an argument which
should not be allowed for a moment
to influence any of the taxpayers. The
man who allows himself to b. swayed
by it, if in other respects he believes
that gambling should 20, is stultifying
himself. But the manifest, acknowl-
edged and unquestioned evils result
ing to the youth of New Mexico in
seeing openly maintained before their
very eyes at every turn institutions
sanctioned by the law, which carry
on a business universally acknowl-
edged to be vicious and deplorable
to the last degree, are such as to
make V e the mention of such an
argument unworthy.
Incorporate use of intoxicating H.
quors is depIorabIe and results in ev-
il, but the abolition of saloons is not
in my opinion practicable. The aboli-
ton of licensed gambling is. But the
limitation of he retail liquor business
is both desirable and practicable. l
call tic your attention the fact that
an average increase of 5000 to 1925
in the retail liquor licenses through
out the Territory, while making a
very desirable decrease in the num-
z VI ooiOOHS WOuIu, III oil pGODdDII- |
ity, more than make up for the loss
to the school funds of the money
now derived from gambling licenses.
The saloons would not only be de
in number, but with gambling
eliminated from them would be much
less Objectionable. This is s~elf-evident.
l strongly recommend that a bill
be enacted making it a misdemeanor
punishable by a fine of not less than
two hundred dollars nor more than
for not less than two months
nor more than one year for any per
son to conduct or carry on in any
way, either as owner or employee,
any sort of a game played with cards
Or any other device, for money.
checks, credit or any other represen-
tative of value. A law less definite
and stringent in it's character would
not result il abolishing an evil,
which for the welfare, good reputation
and fair name of New Mexico, is alb
.solutely essential should be abolished.

The Lessons Which the James

,E.., Teach. %y H.. "

Norfolk, Va. February 14.-China,
the sleeping celestriar Kingdom, will
have q representative at the James
town Exposition. An official letter
received at the Exposition headquar-
ters, in Norfolk, from Robert Bacon,
assistant secretary of state at Wash
lngton, says that American Consul
General Bagsdale, at Tien-Tsin, China,
has been Informed officially by the
Chinese government that China would
send representatives to the exposition.
The representative will be inS ..cted
to gather all possible information
about the progress Of America as
shown by the exposition.
Major A. M. Wheeler, chief of the
department Of exhibits, says that ia
pan is to be similarly represented, and
that is the custom Of all the big Euro
pean countries to send representa-
tives, quite aside from official COM
missions to study the American ex-
positions. At st: Louis he recalled
that French, Austrian and German
representatives went personally to
each separate exhibit, buying extern
slvely all manner Of articles and send
ing them home. He was SURPRISED
at the thoroughness with which this
work was performed. In addition they
obtained all the reports of state com
missions, on the exposition. It is ex-
pected that merchants and manufac-
turers who seek part in the growing
trade of the United States with China,
which has been growing since the open
door policy, has been applied to many
additional ports, will be spurred to
great activity as a result of this lat
est news from the far east.
