blows free, Oh, bury me not on the lone
prairie. Is one of the songs sung in

Opera House New Years night,
Wednesday. Jan. l. by a orugh bunch
of cowboys in true western style. who
make the woods ring with their rough,
%silvery voices. carrying with each nole
memories OF the. great and boundless
west. The Cow-Puncher' is full Of at.
mosphere and local color, the charac-
tern are taken from men and women
living in the very heart of that grand
picturesque state, Arizona. The plot
is well defined and plausible, Hal
Reid, the author, having spen this
boyhood on the vast plains OF which he
writes. w. F. Mann the producer, has
spared neither brains, energy or money
to make this production pleasing to
the eye and correct In every detail.
Two carloads Of scenery are carried,
together with properties, light effects
and wardrobe trunks. The cast Is com
posed Of the best metropolitan players.
and the appearance Of this charming
play Is %anxiously awaited.

Morton had led his wife to their bed room, at the

When the cab turned up Fifth-ave., in its progress
toward 65th-st., Mrs. Morton relieved to have
the unpleasant and unfamiliar sight thus put behind
her. She had never realized that such things
Vaguely she had known that New York was impos-

urged her husband to get away from business for the
comforts of the shore the mountains; but he
had as invariably declared himself unable to do SO,
usually disnissing the suggestion with joking hint
that should he desert his duty in the city, she
and their daughter could not enjoy these pleasures
OF course she had easily got used to the idea ohm
always declared it didn't matter; SO, naturally, why
should she think about it?
But it had been keen shock to her when her boy,
at the end of his first winter his fathers Office had
been forced to leave his catboat and his saddle horse
idle at the pier. She was almost much shocked
greved that he should feel forced to do without his
accustomed pleasures; and in September, when he

he was told he was wanted at the gov
errors yamen, and when he got there
they told him that word had come from
the viceroy that he was to be executed.
AS he himself was an official he was
carried out to the execution grounds
differently from ordinary criminals. He
was allowed 70 ride in q chair, and
was dressed in long silk robe. His
hands were not tied and his mouth was
not gagged, as is the usual custom.
On the way out he talked to the peo-
pie, telling them to see what he had to
suffer after all he had done for the
country as an official, and warned them
not to become officials, for they would
not be appreciated. Then on the execu-
ton grounds he asked that he might
have time to worship toward his home,
that he might not have to kneel to have
lhis head taken off, but be allowed to
stand up, and that he had an old
mother eighty years old and would they
for her sake not sever his head entirely
from the body, All was granted him
except the request to stand up. 1t was
not convenient having him so high, and
by compromise he was allowed to SIT
The Chinese name for these rebels is
I'm Yung,' wandering or travelling SOL
diers, and they got this name from be-
ing discharged soldiers about nine
years ago, when in the southern part
| of the province they were discharged
from service without pay, and left to
get to their homes as best they could.
They took up arms against the govern
ment and created a reign of terror for
the people, as they robbed them to
make living for themselves, and
pressed others into service as chair
bearers and carriers of burdens, etc..
and carried off the women as their
wives and became little world in
themselves.
As the southern part was hard to
hold they backed up into the northwest
part, where the mountainous region
made an ideal place for them to carry
on their rebellion and resist all official
opposition. While they had many fol-

Of tests that have been made, both in
this country and abroad, il is for the
purposes of this argument more than
safe to take three and ene-half per
cent. as the amount of butter fat in
average New York milk before it is
tempered with. Which is the same
thing as saying that 100 pounds of this
milk will make three and one-half
pounds of butter. Now the law de-
clares that all milk which contains
less than three per cent. of butter fat
is adUlterated. This means that any
milk containing three per cent. or a
trifie more of butter fat is perfectly
pure milk. And here is where the deal
e. makes his little profit. The average
milk that he receives has at least three
and one-half per cent. Of butter f3t-a
