Morley, Jesse Nausbaun. of Santa Fe,
and General Guia Luiz of Yucatan,
TO visit, pacify and explore" the is
land Of Cozumel mas a bellicose pro
gram to meet became known here
following the reports printed OF the
trip in the New Mexican Tuesday.
Other letters received by Santa
Feans indicate that Mrs. Morley, wife
Of the Harvard scientist, is prostrat-
ed with worry over the fate of her
husband in view of reports that no
white man in recent years has visited
Cozumel island and lived to tell the
tale Of his journey. Two English ex-
plorers recently braved the hostile
Indians of Cozumel, it is said, and
were never seen again. 1t is believed
that they were eaten by cannibals.
Took Ten Soldiers.
It was ascertained today that Cen
eral LUZ was to take ten soldiers
with him but just what equipment
they had remains to be announced.
The general is a veteran warrior it
is said, and had the presence Of mini

had no doubt but that the interstate
commerce commission would order an
investigation into freight rates in the
state from various shipping points on
the Pacific coast, from the Mississippi

asked that when the time for the hear

Santa Fe Should Wake Up
Apropos to this whole matter, Com
missioner o. L. owen said this morn
ing that it behooves the city of Santa
Fe to wake up on the subject and in
line with the other towns throughout
the state to take some action through
its chamber of commerce and on the
part Of its business men looking to-
wards cooperation with the rest Of
che state. Mr.. owen says that it is
the intention of the corporation com
mission to get some member of the
interstate commerce commission out
TO New Mexico before the meeting OF
that body which will probably be held
some time in June, and to take testi-
mony or hear complaints and get afcts
on the matter, hearing on the injury
inflicted by the present rates and the
obstacles that have to be met on ac-
count of them.
Mr.. Owen further said that the cor
poration commission will file brief
before the national body covering ar
guments and containing statistics re-
garding the whole rate question in
New Mexico, as to present tariffs and
also as to the cost of transportation

This Should Keep

Laxative

Ii is often difficult to tell just what
is the matter with crying. peeYish
baby or child too young to express its
feelings in words, but as a general
rule the mother will find that there is
tendency to constipation, which has
brought on a headache or nervous
ness. The little one has no pain, but
feels "out Of sorts"
The first thing to try is family
remedy containing good but mild lax
atiYe properties, and many mothers
will say that their choice would be
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Thous-
ands Of mothers keep it in the house
for such emergencies, among whom
may be mentioned Mrs. Jennie Man
uel, Altamount, ILL.,, who began to
give her baby, Frederick, Syrup Pep
sin when he was months old, and
has used it ever since with gratifying
results. She writes that Frederick
was not growing well and threw up
his food, but after a few days use of
Syrup Pepsin he was able to retain
his food and gained rapidly in weight.
Thousands of others are glad to say
that Syrup Pepsin saved them many
an illness and many a large doctor
bill, for by administering it promptly,
when the first symptoms of illness
were noticed, they prevented a serious
ailment.
It is so pleasant tasting that no
child will refuse it, and as it does not
grippe the child is glad to take it
again. A bottle can be obtained of any
druggist for fifty cents or one dollar,

WE0 EhN EEAGOE UNDER WAY.
Omaha, Neb., April 18.-With utter
disregard for all Friday superstitions
the Western league started its cham
pionship season today, and if the pre-
dictions of league officials and the
club owners are fulfilled the year will
be one of the most successful in the
IA years history of the organization.
From the Denver champions down to
Topeka, the tail-enders. all the clubs
are reported in good shape for the
race.
The league circuit is the same as
last season and there have been very
few changes either in managers or
among the prominent players. The
only managerial change is at Lincoln,
where Charley Mullen, formerly of
the Chicago White Sox, has been en-
gagged to pilot the home team.
In the opening games Lincoln lined
up at Wichita, Denver at Topeka,

RAILROAD Rate Matters

Attorney General Clancy and the

the chamber Of commerce Of that

Mr.. Clancy said the action of the
state corporation commission in taking
up the freight rate question for the
people of New Mexico was not a move
hostile to the railroads, nor an attack
upon railroad corporations and ought
not to be so construed. He said that
on the contrary, the commission il
animated with desire to not only
benfit the people and stimulate bust
ness and the development of the state
but ultimately to benefit the railroad,
themselves.

WOMAN AGAINST WOMAN" AT
THE LYRIC THEATRE
NEXT WEEK..

One of the strongest and most i'm
portant features of any stock company
is its ability to be versatile, as the
players are called on TO portray many
roles varied and exacting, meaning
complete change of mannerisms, read
ing and everything that goes with a
production.
These features are mentioned now
because it is a very long road between
The White Sister," one of the most
powerful and dramatic shows of recent
years, and a comedy drama with
forceful melodramatic undercurrent,
as Woman Against Woman"
This story shows the terrible results
of a gossip, who lets nothing stand in
the way TO gain her purpose. 1t also
demonstrates TO what extent a wom-
an will go when her anger is aroused,
and she determines TO make the
wrecker of her home suffer, especially
if the wrongdoer is of her own sex.
Years ago this play was a success
in stock, and that ii maintains the
reputation is shown b ythe demand
for seats for every night next week.
The Peruchi-Gypzene Stock Company
is particularly fortunate in having
players who are equal to any task, and
this makes it certain that the entire
cast will be up to the high standard
set by it earlier in the season.
Mr.. Peruchi promises a production
that will leave nothing to be desired
and the patrons know what that
means. Mabel Gypzene and Alice De
Lane, the former as the heroine and
the latter as the woman whose false
hoods almost cause a wrecked home.
! Mr.. Mansfield will be the husband
who listens to the lies. but gets the
right road in the end and realizes his
wife is all she should be.

CRESCENT.

The Crescent Theatre will have the
field practically to itself
next week, as both the Tulane and the
Dauphine will end their regular season
on Saturday night of the current week.
For its attraction, the Crescent an
nounces the first engagement in New
Orleans of one of Americas favorite
minstrel comedians, Neil O'Brien. who,
this season, has an aggregation all his
own and comes to New Orleans with
the endorsement of almost the entire
country of having one of the largest
and most extensively equipped min
strel organizations which has even
been sent on tour. Mr.. O'Brien has
been largely known through theatre
goers of this vicinity through his many
years connection with DOckstader and
Field as their principal comedian. In
his particular sphere he probably has
no equal as an impersonator of the
quaint and lazy type of levee darby.
He has become famous from the At
lantic to the Pacific as the most truth

baritone of rare quality and sings sew
eral compositions expressly written
for him. Jack McShane, the tenor who
was last heard in New Orleans during
the first engagement of the COhan and
Harris Minstrels at the Tulane four
years ago; AL Fontaine. the basso, who
for many years was a favorite with
the Dockstader show; and Eddie
Gates, a juvenile singer said to pos
sess a contra-tenor voice, are number
ed among Mr.. O'Brien's double quar-
let of soloists. The entire production
is said to be most beautifully and elab-
orately staged. the scenic effects be-
ing particularly brilliant and the ward
robe tasteful and attractive. In addi-
ton to the first part, there is a big
singing and dancing number introduc-
ing twenty-five or more people in a
series of quaint and artistic dances
conceived and staged by Pete Detzel.
Mr.. O'Brien's act, written by himself,
is entitled Following the Flag In
this sketch Mr.. O'Brien plays the role
of a negro general in a colored regi-

full exponent of this class of character.
Mr.. OBrien brings with him an organ
ization composed of many favorites of
the minstrel stage. Notable in his
support are Eddie Mazier, the rotund
comedian who for years has delighted
local audiences with his unctuous
style of work; Harry Van Fossen, who
for several successive seasons came
here as one of the principal end-men
with AL Field; Pete Detzel, John Burke
and several other black-face kings of
Momus assist Mr.. O'Brien in giving
what is said to be one of the merriest
minstrel entertainments ever staged.
The vocal features are credited as be-
ing quite as superior as the comedy
end of the entertainment. w. H.
Thompson, who, for the past several
years, has been singing exclusively for
the Edison Photograph people and
whose records have gone all over the
world, is Mr.. O'Brien's principal sing
er. Mr.. Thompson possesses a lyric

committee of three from each OF
the different lodges of the knights OF
Pythias. namely Crescent, Halcyon,
and Virginia lodges, will give weeks
entertainment at the Memo Theatre on
April eth to 18th inclusive. The pur-
nose of this entertainment or beneht
will be to improve the Pythian burial
Mot in the McDonoghville cemetery.
This plot was originally purchased by
rbe weIl-known committee of nine OF
the three lodges, and it is under the
auspices of the committee OF nine
that this entertainment is to be given.
T. E. Huckins, who is chairman OF
this committee, has so far the ar
rangements we'll in hand and besides
the regular moving picture features at
each nights entertainment there will
also be vaudeville of local talent, as
well as some of the best in the city.
Mrs. J f. Huckins has charge of the
vaudeville end and it goes without say
ing that there will be some new
stunts on the stage during the week.
II is rumored that some of the local
Pythians will also be on the stage,
and as this will be their first appear
ance either in vaudeville or the regu-
lar profession, it will no doubt cause
considerable amount of amusement, to
say nothing of the added attraction
this will give to the enterprise. In
our next issue it will be our pleasure
TO mention some who will consent to
take active part on the stage.
Tickets are being sent to each one
of the members of the three lodges for
distribution and the committee asks
that in helping on this deserving en-,
terprise the tickets be purchased as
soon as possible so as to encourage
the members in asking for further
supplies.
1t is hoped to realize enough money
through this benefit to make the pres
ent Pythian burial plot in the GENE
terry a beautiful place for the repose
of the dead Pythians and as it is a
worthy cause the committee asks that
the purchase of tickets be generous.

many prominent stars have been en-
