Good Dance

The Catholic benefit dance,
given last Saturday night at the
Armory, was a source of u great
deal Of pleasure to those who
we're fortunate enough to attend,
and incidentally netted some
thirty dollars for the church.
Those who worked so earnestly
and faithfully in making oil the
arrangements, are Of course re-
sponsible for the success of the
dance, and deserve much credit.
Louis Hills orchestra furnished
the music, and as each member
seemed just in the mood for the
occasion, the music was rarely
good. One Of the novelty
features, which added charm
and interest for many, was the
dancing Of the Mexican quadrille.

BUSTER BROWN DELIGHTS
MANY CHILDREN
With the Ever-faithful Tige, he
Visits Alamogordo
NOT IN OLD MAN, BUT A REAL BOY
He had the Youngsters Right With him
From Start to Finish

Buster Brown and his good dog,
Tige, widely heralded and adver-
tised, and for a long while expect
ed here by the youngsters, have
actually been in Alamogordo.
Accompanied by his mother,
Buster arrived Sunday and re-
NAMED until Tuesday night,
when the party left for Tucum-
carl. All Sunday afternoon the
little boys followed the great and
wonderful Buster everywhere he
went. They followed hin on foot,
on bicycles, horseback and in
automobiles. Monday afternoon
at four o'clock, when the enter
tainment was given at the Alca-
zar, the place was packed and
jammed with school children.
Immediately after the entertain
ment, souvenirs were given by
the Wo'finger store.
The original in the Buster
Brown role was man, we'll
advanced in years. The Buster
who played here was a boy, quite
a boy, and interested in all the
fun and sports which appeal to
any healthy, rational child. He
visited the park, and made the
rounds of all the attractions.
Buster is touring the country
advertising the shoes maDufac-
tured by the Brown Shoe Co., of
st. Louis. Ordinarily, he would
not make the states or terri
tories so sparsely settled as New
Mexico; but this year the sales
man for New Mexico earned
first place in the list of salesmen,
and as reward, the company
sent Buster through this terri
tory. As an advertising plan, it
is one which appeals directly to
the. wearer and consumer. It
is said that already a great many
children have begun begging aud
teasing for Buster Brown shoes.

Baseball In The Pulpit

Recently the baseball editor of
metropolition paper was sent to
report the sermon of new min
lister, aS the religious editor was
i'll. This is the copy he turned
in: Quite a bunch was pres
ent last Sunday evening at the
church owing to the presence of u
new star in the box and the
boosters were anxious for line
on his work. Rev.-is certainly
there with the goods and per-
formed to the satisfaction of all
present. Owing to the fact that
this was his first appearance on
the local grounds he was a little
nervous the first inning, but en-
couraged by the coachers in the
Amen" corner, he let himself
loose and had the game we'll in
hand from then on. His New
jerusalem slow ball is a peach,
aud when he turned loose on
eternal punishment his speed
was terrific. AS this was his
first workout it is too early to
try to predict a future for him,
but if he can keep up the gait
he has struck it's him for the big
leagues next season. ."-Ex.

BUFFALO BILL FAVORS
indian MONUMENT
Believes we Should Honor our
Pioneers
COL. CODY KNOWS THE RED MAN
Ohivalric Victor Should Honor the old
Time Foe

Washington, April 10 "The
Indian, | have known since | was
old enough to know anything"
said Col. William F. Cody. in a
recent interview, And it is the
greatest qualification to me to
know that the bill pending for
a National Monument to be
erected in New York Harbor,
has been reported farorabIy
from the Committee on Library
of the House. This bill, which
was introduced in the House
by Congressman Goulden. and
in the Senate by Senator Depew
provides for the erection of a
National Memorial TO the Indian,
to he erected in New York Har.
Dor, on u site selected by the
Secretary of War and the Secre-
tary of the Navy, without cost to
the Government.
1t is a great satisfaction ia
me to know, that for the pur-
pose of gathering the true story
of the Indians and of becoming
familiar with them, Mr.. Rodman
Wanamaker, of Philadelphia,
sent the expedition into the
West, and that through his efforts
the memory of the North Ameri-
can Indian is to be perpetuated.
1T is a patriotic idea to allow
the children of the country an
opportunity to contribute a
penny to this memorial. Laud
able as was the idea of Mr..
Wanamaker, IN his enthusiasm,
to donate the entire amount
himself, think it is but right
that the people of the country
should be allowed to do their
share. This statue will show
the welcome that was extended
by the Indians of America to
those who came from Europe tC
build their homes and create the
Republic which we all enjoy"

DR.. GOwen Resigns

DR.. B. 5. Gowen has resigned
the presidency of New Mexico
Normal University, at Las Vegas.
DR.. GOwen is one of the most
successful educators who have
ever lived in New Mexico. His
record at Las Vegas furnishes
ample evidence of this statement.
When he took charge Of the
school three years ago, the
institution had an enrolment
of sixty five. During the pre-
sent school year, the attendance
has been increased three hund-
red, while many applicants
have been denied admission on
account of no room.
The reason for the resignation
has not been made public, and
DR.. Gowen has refused to discuss
the matter. But whatever the
reason is, it is to be regretted,
because New Mexico can i'll af-
ford to lose the services of SO
valuable an instructor and educa.

Otero county teachers institute,
which was held in Alamogordc
in August, 1908. He made q

Mountain Crop Killed

The most discoursging reports
concerning the fruit crop are
coming in from the vicinity of
Mountain Park. The freeze and
the snow got in their deadly
work last week to such an ex
tent that there will be no fruit
crop this season. That is the
severest sort OF q blow to many
Of the people Of that section, be-
cause fruit raising is their prin-
cipal business. But they will
have a big resort at High Rolls,
to help to put money into circula-
tion, and they have also their
hopes for q bumper crop for next
season. That is not much in the
way Of encouragement, but q
little is better than none.

evening. Every body hoped that
the entertainment would he
pleasing and interesting; but no
one anticipated a stellar per-

which was actually put on. From
the opening chorus by the High
School Glee Club to the scarf

there was not one single number
which failed to hold the undi-

ence.
They were all there in attend

From the youngster right dcwI

dame with sDow white hair,
they all enjoyed the exercises.
Even without advertising, the
assembly room was packed, and
1T was necessary to put in many
extra seats and chairs.
There were three choruses
rendered by the High School

charming girls. And in addition
to looking charming, they sang
in pleasing way. The subjects
of the choruses were THE Owl" !"

Attack due to Infecti n From Case Of Fry
sipelas

DR.. Otis w. Miller suffered a
stroke of apoplexy last Friday
night. which resulted in the par.
tial paralysis of both the lower
limbs, the right side and arm.
The attack, which DR.. Miller had
somewhat feared for some time,
occurred about eight o'clock.
DR.. Gilbert was immediatly
summoned, and after an eXami-
nation, coucurred in the diagno.
sis which Dir. Miller himself had
already made of the case.
The attack of apopleXy is at
tributed to the condition of the
right eye, which became infect
ed from case of erysipelas some
months ago, and has been a
source Of continuous pain and
trouble since that time. 1t is
believed that an operation, pro-
baby involving the removal of
the eye. will ELIMINATE the pro-
liability of future attacks of ap-
opIeXy.

No younger brother, arrived
on the limited Thursday after
noon, and will assist in arranging

the use of his right arm. He
has displayed remarkable forti-

his own trials in helping conduct
a congress, the Sixteenth, at AL

was secretary of the board of

advantages of town and state
are inestimable. He cited one
instance, that Mr.. Garfield of

half million proposition in New
Mexico by reason with his iden-
