the role ring true. Misses Woods and
Lytell play their respective parts well
and all the company have been ade-

enthusiastic and many took the op-
portunity to voice their appreciation
and compliment the different members
of the company on their clever work

Referee in Bankruptcy

Regarding the above decision the
bankrupt has option in two courses.
one of which is to have the case Ger
titled to the judge of the United States
district court, which is of the nature
OF review and in which the whole
matter would be re-opened before the
judge. The other option is for the
bankrupt to allow the time given him
to lapse. and then the referee certifies
the whole proceeding to the judge.
The judge then cites the bankrupt
before him to show cause why he
should not be punished for contempt
in disobeying the order of the referee.
This re-opens the case in a similar way
to n review, and the judge can confirm
or reverse the referees order. If he
confirms the bankrupt is then in con-
teinpt, although he has the right TO APP
peal TO the circuit court of appeals at
Boston. The penalty for contempt Is
Imprisonment.

 One of the animal curIosities of South America Is the ''oil-bird," or qua charo. It breeds in rocky caves on the mainland, and one of It's fayorits haunts Is the island of Trinidad.

The caves inhabited by the birds are usually accessible only from the sea, and the hunting of them Is sometimes an exciting sport
 The great cataract in the New River, formed in the Imperial Valley. Cali fornia, by the escape of the waters Of the Colorado River, has been llkened to Nigara Falls It varies from 90 10 100 feet in height, and Is from l,5OO to 1,S0O yards broad. It likewise re- sembles Niagara in eating backward, or upstream, but It's progress ln this direction Is extremely rapid, amount ing to about one third of a mile per day. This arises from the fact that the channel of the stream Is cut through the fragile material deposited centuries ago by the Colorado River at the head of the Gulf of California. IL Is predicted that If the escape of the waters of the Colorado Is not arrested before the cataract has cut back far enough to unite the New River and the Alamo River, the Imperial Valley will be entirely deprived of It's lrriga- ton streams. This cataract may be called "man-made," since It's existence Is due to his interference with the wa ters of the Colorado.
