 Upon School Boys.
 San Antonio. Texas. March af.-(spe- e,al .)--Agricultural enthusiasm in the pubIic schools of San Antonio bids fair this spring to take the place of base ball enthusiasm in the minds and hearts of small boys of this city.
 Since the establishing of school gar dening some two years ego. the growth of interest in this particular phase of education has been remarkable.
 Through the benehcence of public spirited citizen here, George W. BracI<- enridge. a school farm and laboratory has been established. Lately home garden club has been organized among the public school pupils. every mem Der of which Is maintaining a garden at home.
 A tree planting movement in connec- tion with this hah been instituted and slips are being distributed for, the planting of 10000 fig trees by the boys of this city. The fig tree Is not only ornamental, but produces a delicious fruit, and Is a welcome addition to the family menu. Later in the spring ar- Dor day will be celebrated by the Tree HIanting Club organized among the grown up people and by the Home Gar den Club when 10000 additional trees will be set out.
 It is confidently expected that in few years this tree planting campaign will make San Antonio bower of vernal beauty

 Mrs. Leslie-Carter Ia szaxa.v
 Mrs. Leslie-Carter the foremost ac- tress of the American stage will pre- sent "zaza" at The Grand on Monday evening. March 30.
 Fault cannot be found in placing Mrs. Carter in the front rank of the players of our time. The only artist emotional actress Is Sarah Bernhardt. to whom Mrs. Carter has been repeat ed1y compared. The occasion for this comparison ts apparent to all those
 who are acquainted with the art of acting. who are cognizant of dramatic
 temperament. and qf its sway over audiences. Without 1t. acting is mere ake-believe-@never real and vital and
 convincing. An actress may know
 every trick of the trade, may be con-
 versant with every little technical
 nicety of the art and be totally unable
 to give reality to her impersonations..
 Such an actress may be admired for
 the care she may take in her work;
 may even satisfy some who are pleased
 by her personality; but she can never
 produce the heart throb in the spec
 tator: can never transport him on the
 wings of imagination. for she is lack
 ing intemperament. which is God given
 and cannot be taught and cannot be
 acquired by study. Mrs. Carter has
 temperament. It was discovered in her the first time she set her foot on the stage-at the Broadway Theatre
 on November 10. 1890. Every critic
 next morning recognized this blessed possession. When therefore. she is re- ferred to as "The American Bern hardt," there Is fact and reality be-
 hind it.
 Of the several impersonations that H.n fee "a Tfn place on the stage of our line. her Zaza takes first rank. It was hardly to be expected that she would ever be able to repeat her marvellous suc- cess in "The Heart of Maryland" which displayed her art on so many sides. that to so beyond and above 1t seemed out of reason. So 1t was that when the news of her amazing hit in Zaza was heralded over the coun- try 1t could hardly be believed. It is
 only at very rare intervals that cres- cent success follows such a monu- 1 mental triumph as was her portrayal | that other French woman, zaza. And on that night the actress proved that it Is a perilous undertaking to measure a great dramatic tempera- ment in advance of fruition. The 1 American stage has no parallel for this 1 gifted woman's success in this role. | Zaza with Mrs. Carter as the heroine
 has been one of the chief dramatic 1 delights of the American stage of re- cent time. During the interum. since it's production. there have been several fine plays from the native dranatist but Zaza sti1l takes front rank. It is the most vital play. very likely, that has been written during the past decade. One of the best informed
 critics said of 1t: ''It is indeed q | truly remarkable work in many re- spects, and in contemplating it one | Is lost in Admiration and wonder, for more stupendoup production than | this it would be difficult to innagine.

 eery of Good Qualities of the Root.
 Although chicory was probably known and used by the ancient Ro- mans as a pot herb. 1t remained for the Holianders about 200 years ago to discover that the roots of the chic ory plant dried, ground and roasted produced a drink like coffee, both pail atable and healthful.
 During the Napoleonic wars a strict blockade of the continent of Europe was maintained and all importaticns of coffee. tea and cocoa ceased. This forced the people to turn to chicory as beverage and 1t soon came into gen. eral use.
 So good was it's taste. so rich was It's aroma that the new beverage at once became exceedingly popular with the good Dutch housewives who are known the world over for their ability as cooks.
 After the war when ample supply of coffee could be secured, the Hol- flanders were loath to give up their chicory. As q result 'i-r A fee and chicory and produced the good old Dutch coffee now served in near ly all hotels, restaurants and homes in Europe.
 Not only did this blend produce that rich aroma and flavor, but it was found that ehicory counteracted the bad effects Of straight coffee. Those who found ordinary coffee injurious drank the combination and it proved both refreshing and healthful.
 Thus 1t is seen that chicory has been used for centuries in Europe; where 1t is regarded as a necessary addition to coffee. s*
 Americans began using chicory as soon as they realized 1t was put on the market to improve the quality of coffee and not in any spirit of dis honesty. Fortunately the new United States pure food law requires all mak- CTS to state on their packages what the contents are and this protects the buyer from all substitutes for pure coffee and pure chicory and insures grade equal that from which the old fashioned Dutch beverage is made.
 Through our foreign born citizens so consistently demanding 1t. the merits of chicory have become known by word of mouth until those who have beretofore been disappointed in secur- ing the rich. full coffee flavor in their morning beverage have found that by h,,ving coffee mixed with chicory, they secure the exact combination they have been seeking.

Wright Goes Through the Air
At a Wonderful Speed--Ab-
SOIate Control of His
Machine.

At Fl. Meyer, Va, Orville
Wright made the two greatest
areoplane flights ever made pub
licly in this country when he re-
NAMED in the air over IL minutes
on his first fight and nearly eight
on the second on September 8.
Throughout both fights Wright
apparently had the machine under
perfect control, rising at times to
so feet and making sharp turns.
Sweeping to earth like giant
eagle, the machine was brought
down by Wright within thirty
feet of the starting apparatus,
having made IL complete circles of
the field in II minutes and 10 Sec
Onds.
Wright started for the second
attempt. On one trip around the
field he flew over the stables which
line it on one side, and again on
another round he flew over the
Aerial Garage" where the aero
plane is housed.
After eight circles of the field
Wright brought his machine
down. 1t was estimated that
Wright covered 81 miles in the
first flight at an average of 36 miles
an hour and on the second fl ght

Automobiles and ShOtQunS.

Our plan is to give our police
automobiles and double-barreled
shotguns, to enable two or more of
them to pass half a dozen times in
the night nearly every house in
town and stop wherever they see a
signal in regard to criminals.
We have great confidence that
our plan, with its trained police
dogs similar to those now largely
used in European cities and towns,
will be adopted by thousands of
towns in the United States and
