HORSE SHOW OPENS.

New York. Nov. 1s.-Well known
horse lovers from cities throughout
the United States and Canada were
today to attend the opening OF the Ma
tional Horse show. 1t is the twenty
seventh annual event of its kind in
the metropolis and the last horse
show to be held in Madison Square
Garden, which is to be razed next
spring to make way for a mammoth
office building. In all essential re-
spects the show this year closely re-
sembles its predecessors. Both the
entries and the prize offerings are
slightly in excess of the previous high
figures and the program pays more
attention to the soldier horsemen than
heretofore. Otherwise it is the same
old show, as gorgeous and brilliant as
high stepping horses, beautiful " ,men
in magnificent gowns. music, lights
and other accessories can make it.

OIL CONCESSIONS TAXED.

Mexico City, Nov. 1S.-All conces-
sions granted during the Diaz regime
for the development of oil lands, will
be rendered practically valueless if
congress passes a bill introduced to
tax these lands along the same lines
as other properties are now taxed.
The concessions now held by Lord
Coudrey and his associates do not
provide for the payment of any con-
siderable tax, but enables them to
prevent others from developing the
property.
The author of the bill, Jose Laza-
no, frankly declared on the floor of
the house that his measure was in
tended to destroy the power of the
Pearson syndicate and the Standard
Oil company.
IF we do not do this now, said
Lazano, "the time will come when
Chapultepec Castle and the ancient
palace of the viceroys will be ruled
from Wall Street"
The bill also provides for an ex-
port tax on petroleum.

CIRCUS MASQUERADE
ON new YEARS EVE
LAS VEGAS FIRE DEPARTMENT is
PLANNING FOR ELABORATE
PLEASURE FUNCTION.

Already the arrangements for the
annual mask ball to be given by the
boys of the East Las Vegas Fire de-
partment ON January l, are we'll under
way and indications are that it will
be the biggest and grandest affair in
the history of the Meadow City fire
department. At the last meeting of
the firemen in the city hall on No
vember committees were appointed,
and the committee on arrangements,
composed of Arthur Minimum, Dick
Smith and James Lowe, Immediately
got busy and has already outlined the
entire plan for the big dance.
According to this committee, the
affair will be more elaborate and
larger than ever The idea for this
year is of circus carnival and every
thing will be run on those lines. The
boys of the department before the
regular mask ball will pull off new
little circus stunt in which all of
the talent of the company will be
used to the best advantage. The boys
are all good acrobats and, it will no
doubt have any one circus in the
business beat city block on the gym
nastic side and any Georgian min
strels from the comical side of life.
This little show is only a starter for
the things to come.
The committee on arrangements is
in correspondence with one of the
best costumers in Denver and to
tempt the highest class of masking
the boys will spare no expense in the
way of prizes. The firemen are plan
ming to spend over 5000 in prizes and
are going to carry out the entire
affair in the same way. A similar
sum is to be spent for decorating the
opera house. The committee has
written for bids to some Colorado
firm, which will furnish the material,
and will make known its plans upon
the receipt of replies.
A new feature of the big function
will be a parade in the afternoon.
Though the plans for this are not
completed, it will be a feature well
worth witnessing. The fire boys are
going to have the best music that
there is in the Meadow City. A spe-
cial orchestra will be organized for
the occasion in which there will be
the best talent in Las Vegas. This
annual New Year ball of the fire lad
dies is always an event to be looked
forward to and the public can count
on a great deal this year. The com
mittee on arrangements has ordered
some large posters of the circus type
and for further announcements
watch the billboards and The Optic. <

Haunted defiance at Yale in New

Princeton looked on such an element
with more complaceney than Yale,
