journment follows:
Neither house, shall, without the
consent of the other. adjourn for
more than three days nor to any other
place than that in which the two

1t is maintained. by those who feel
that the house made a mistake that
by adjourning yesterday until Mon
day it adjourned sine die and that the
only way It can be reconvened is by
call Of the governor for an extra
session. The senate yesterday morn
ing discussed the action of the house
for more than two hours and then
passed a motion granting the privilge
of adjourning in order to bolster up
the contention of the majority that
adjournment was legal. This was the
only business transacted by the sem

KING EDWARDS VISIT
EXCITES COMMENT


Berlin, Apr. liking Edwards ap
preaching meeting with King Victor
Emmanuel is exciting much comment
in the German press, which regards
the event as being an effort to iso
late Germany and Italy away from
the triple alliance. An article in the
Cologne Gazette in this sense is be
ing widely discussed, because it is
believed that the article was directly
inspired from Berlin. The writer says
that public opinion in Germany sees
in King Edwards visit an attempt
to disturb European equilibrium
which is calculated to awaken mis-
givings regarding the disarmament
proposal, and finally warns Great Bri-
tain that WAR with Germany could
be made dangerous for any opponent
or any association of opponents"
At the foreign office it is stated that
the German government is in no, way
responsible for the views of the pa
per. and that the government officials
would have taken steps to prevent
publication of the articles if they had
known of them in advance.

the benefit of the Ladies' Cemetery

just as its quality is meritorious.

of numbers by the chorus, drilled by
Miss Rodkey, pantomime songs by
the young ladies' chorus, "Reveries
of a Bachelor and individual num-
bers by Mrs. Robert C. Cook, Miss
Rodkey and Messrs Alexander and

HURD G. REED MINSTREL
BEST EVER SEEN HERE

The Hurd & Reed minstrel, which
is being put on every night of the
convention in the Auditorium Rink
at the corner of Fifth and Main, was
attended by an immense crowd last
night, when the opening performance
was put on to the entire satisfaction
of everyone. A great many pronounce
it, unqualffiedly, the best show of the
kind ever seen in Roswell.
Every part of the show is right up
to the scratch in every respect. There
is nothing old, nothing stale-every-
thing bright and catchy, as min
strel should be. The program is typi-
cal, with music and songs galore and
ious kinds. Deserving of special men
tion are the O'Rear whistling and
bone artists, Hale and Ransom, the
singing and dancing comedians, Jas.
Mullen and mis- waltz song, and Hal
Reed with mis- songs and end work
If everybody in Roswell doesn't go
go to this show they will miss good
chance, and will not have the right
to say, as many often do, that mo
good theatrical attractions come to
Roswell" This show is simply fine,
as good as can be seen in Kansas
City. Every visitor will do well to
see the show at least once. There is
a partial change of program each
night. Seats are on sale at the Pay
ton Drug Store.
