Pueblo, Colo, July 10.-Because the
city fathers cannot agree upon the list
Of favored ones who are to receive
liquor licenses for the coming year, Pu-

in its history. Every saloon was or
dered closed at midnight last night, and
today drawn blinds and closed doors

Under the new city ordinance not
more than 100 saloon licenses can be is
sued. The councilmen have been un-
able to agree on the favored ones in
their respective wards, and since july
all saloons have been running without
licenses. A special meeting Of the c0un-

drought.

o,siR viii Be Upward Revision in Its Most Aggravated
FOrl-InheritanCe Tax Looming Up Again.

IN the city. II is expected that his place
in the conference viii be filled much Of
the time by Senator SmOOt.
Amendments were considered today in
their numerical order. When the ses-
sion closed for the day, the conferees
had passed through the chemical and
! earthenware schedules and more than
halfway through the metal schedules.
All OF the amendments in the schedules,
! however, were not settled.
Differences Not Serious.
The adjustment of the differences be-
tween the house and the senate viii not
prove so serious a task as is indicated
by the large number of amendments.
More than 200 of the amendments con-
sist of changing the phrase "as pro-
vided by section one and two of this
act to read ''as provided by this sec
ton These changes were made neces-
sary by the action of the senate in con-
solidating the dutiable and free lists and
making the maximum and minimum
provision the second section of the bill.
Nearly 300 other amendments relate to
phraseOlOgy over which there will be no
dispute whatever. Eliminating these, it
is pointed out that there are less than
400 amendments that represent oppos-
ing views.
Few members of the conference com
mittee are willing to place the time nee
essary for the completion of the bill in
conference at less than ten days. Some
of the conferees place the probable
length of the conference at a fortnight
or more.

Corporation Tax Amendment.

The corporation tax amendment has
not been considered by the conferees in
any way. Nevertheless, it was predict

the proposed tax on the net earnings
OF corporations would be reduced in con-

It was also reported that the cor

provision restored to the bill, but no

nor could its origin be traced

"THE SINGING BANDITS"
PLAYED AT THE MAJESTIC

Spontaneous applause burst from a
long silent Majestic audience last
night as the strains of the Lucia
seXtet afforded a welcome conclusion
to the first act of The Singing Ban
dts" Both the end and the applause
seemed a long time coming. 1t is as
plain as the most generously proper
toned nose that the people like opera.
1t is almost as evident that The Sing
ing Bandits" is not even comic opera
let alone that more pretentious thing,
operate comedy"
1t is a great pity, for the little COM
pany which Thomas II. Parsse and
Miss Edith Mason led upon the Ma
jestic stage last night is a conscien-
tious and a well trained organization.
In the Lucia selection and later in
one from "RigolettO' they showed
plainly what they can do with music
worthy of their voices. In the rendi-
tion Of much of Herman Perlet's score
they appeared to be doing little but
time. With all courtesy TO their in
diVidual excellence, it must be con-
fessed that as entertainment and in
bulk THE Singing Bandits" is eX-
ceedingly well named.
The story is a diverting affair, re-
lating the complications arising from
two brigands and three stranded ac-
tors stopping at the same inn in Italy.
The actors are taken for bandits, and
the real bandits insist upon being
taken for a wandering noblenan and
his servant The innkeeper in help
less chagrin sees his store of food dis
appearing. and, to cap the climax, dis.
covers another penniless actor behind
his rain barrel, clad in the seductive
scarlet of Mephisto. He is such sau
devil that mine host is quite naturally
convinced that he must be genuine.
Out of these misunderstanding some
good situations are developed, worthy
of better wit than that with which the
has infested his lines A
love affair or two help to straighten
out the tangle and conclude the piece
as happily as may be.

placement and sweet tone, which is

FRIENDS OF MEXICAN

Addresses at Simpson
Auditorium

Friends of Mexican freedom gath
cred in simpson auditorium yesterday
afternoon to listen to addresses relat-
ing to political conditions in Mexico
at the present time. l.. Gutierrez De
Lara, the Mexican liberal and patriot,
was the principal speaker. He dwelt
on the governmental abuses there and
was warmly applauded when he told
his auditors it would be but short
time when Mexico would be a republic
in fact as we'll as name through the
establishment of the constitution of
1857.
Other speakers were George H. Shoaf,
special writer for the Appeal to Rea-
son, who detailed how he secured an
interview with Villereal, Rivera and
Magon, the Mexican liberals, when
they were in Jail here; j. b. Osborne.
"the blind reformer" who told Of
abuses sustained by Mexicans in states
along the border, and S. A. Olympus.
president OF the De Lara Defense
league, who gave a brief resume of the
arrest and liberation of l.. Gutierrez De
Lara, who was charged with being an
alien anarchist subject to deportation.
Following the speeches plans were
laid for a national league which will
have for its purpose the protection of
political refugees who come to the
United States.

heard 10 fair advantage in her solos
Mr.. PARSE sings powerfully and often
appealingly. The ensemble numbers,
except the two interpretations, at times
gave a painful impression of discord
which was difficult 10 trace, but i'm
possible to escape. Robert McKim and
II. l. Dempster. as the two genuine
bandits, supplied most of the observ-
able comedy. Both are good actors and
sang well. The makeup of the former
bore a striking resemblance to the
earlier pictures of Lord Byron, which
quite became the Italian setting and
spirit of the play.
Noble Grayson impersonated the de-
throned Mephisto, and Miss Bernice
Holmes sang the necessary contralto,
sometimes well, sometimes to the
judgment of the ear with a certain
lack of harmony. Harold Reeves and
Miss George KnOwlton played the inn
keeper and his wife, both acting and
singing acceptably.
In another vehicle one could imagine
this little company affording pleas
ing and artistic performance. AS 1t is,
the deserving cause of comic opera re
vival is rather hampered than assisted
by their honest efforts. w. H. b.
