THE GLEE CLUB
 TOMORROW EVENING

An exchange says of the University Glee club, which will sing here tomorrow night:
 'The audience was altogether an en- thusiastic one. A very full quota of encorcs was repeatedly exhausted with the crowd still clamoring for more. The club was a distinct hit, and 1t was jolly two hours spent listening to the boys sing. In addition to the excellent choral and solo work done. there was that jolly and care-free spirit which always goes with bunch of college boys and which per vades the house with its contagion.
 'The programme for this season is one of the best the club has ever sung. Mus ically. it is more ambitious than any yet had and from a standpoint of hits it is a great success. A great number of the selections were entirely new, and those heard on former occasions were heard again with equal pleasure. The team work of the club was decidedly good. The boys sang together with smooth-

by the fact that the people are uncer-

The Mexican people can cope with

ing man who is popular throughout
the country and can control the army.

the responsibilities incident to self

Concerning the revolutions them
selves" said the judge, 1T is found
that they are uniformly local in scope
and action. The principal activities
have been in Chihuahua, and are the
outgrowth of long-standing dissatis-
faction with municipal conditions there.
Lack of organization, of leadership

things is to form a corps of rural po-
lice who, we'll armed and equipped,
working with activity and constancy,
can in a short time destroy the gang or
bandits, thereby reestablishing tran
guilty in the country and assuring to
all the peaceful and laboring inhabitants
the guarantees which they merit and
which they need to pursue their labors.
1.-The account of the state with the
moneyed interests is sufficient for the
sustenance Of these rural forces and
seek solely the assistance of the citf-
zens who love order and progress to
enlist and present their labors to the
end all private necessities for the form
alton of the rural corps.
Therefore call upon all Chihua-
huans of good Will, to those who.
knowing their duties as citizens and
patriots, they know that the only form
by which it is possible to succeed is by
the method Of the union To those that
understand that only the legally con-

its institutions. who have shed their
blood defending our principles rigor-
ously and who have not stopped at any

MURDER CASE TRIAL
PUT OVER FOR WEEK
Boys Charged With killing Frank
Dunbar to Have Hearing After
Thanksgiving.

In order to make it unnecessary for
number of jurors to be locked up in
the court house on Thanksgiving day,
the criminal trial list has been altered
so that the Dunbar murder case does
not come up first when court convenes
Monday afternoon at o'clock. 1t had
been arranged that the murder case
should be the first one to be tried after
Nov. Z, but when 1t was found impos-
sible to commence the case this week
it was decided not to start it until af-
ter Thanksgiving, because the jurors
in that case will have to remain in
custody all the time that the testi-
mony is being taken. This is not true
in the other cases. The first one that
will be tried is that of Frank Corcoran,
who is charged with crime against
children, rape and sodomy. The state
feels sure of convicting him on the
first of these. The second case on the
list Is that Of George Sarnburn,
charged with incest. The third is AL
bin Sundberg, charged with man.

boys indicted for the murder Of Frank

For the cup and kiss have been

of infantile paralysis.

The stone age men were forced to

monster, because we do not yet know
how to fight it.
The chief stalking ground of this
