ALABAMA MINISTRIES.

1 About the best negro minstrel show that Fl Pasoans ever saw was that given at the Fl Paso Theatre Tuesday night by the Alabama Minstrels. The house was we'll filled and the audience, black and white alike, laughed or ap- plauded heartily throughout the even ing. There was lots of real fun and several acts that would win applause anywhere.
 Hi Henry Hunt, the cOntOrtioniSt and fire eater, was a real novelty and his act is one that is not often seen any where. Among other feats he took a small frying pan full of burning alco- hol and ate it with spoon,the flames leaping from his mouth with every spoonful; then he covered a string with alcohol and set it on fire and took it into his mouth: as a final act of daring he took red hot soldering iron from a timers furnace, walked to the front of the stage and put it into his mouth The audience could hear it sizzle.
 Arthur Prince, the juggler and hoop roller, is a real expert. There are hoop rollers on the best vaudeville circuits in the country who have no better control and some that do not perform as difficult feats as Prince. His hoop rolling is nothing short of wonderful. Similar acts have ap- peared at Hammerstein's in New York that are not as good.
 One of the strong features of the show is that the comedians are real comedians. They are the funniest ne groes that it has ever been the priv ilege of Fl Paso theatregoers to see. Watson, big black fellow, is a fine singer and a natural fun maker. Lots of white men behind burnt cork mask, who draw much more money than this negro, are not such good en- tertainers. Edwards, his partner, is almost as good. He has voice that gets laugh from the very start and the talking act between these two men is scream.
 There is also little negro who can dance all around lots of other minstrel men. Last night he was showered with money from the audience.
 c. l.. Erickson, former football star, automobile racer and globe trotter,son of a millionaire, is owner and manager of the show, and takes pride in put ting on the best that he can get in the line of dark skinned talent t.-El Paso Herald.

A bill introduced by Senator Har- rison, of Santa Cruz county, in the State Senate, provides for the abolish ment of the office of County Road Su- perintendent in each county, also the office of County Surveyor, and in their places substituting the office of County Engineer. In effect, it is the merging of the office of County Surveyor and County Road Superin- tendent. It strikes us that the bill has a great deal of merit.

From a Distant Friend.
Seattle, Wash. Feb. 10, 1913

Seattle, Wash, Feb. 10, 1913.
j. A. Menzies:
Dear Sir-Enclosed please find one
dollar in payment of my subscription
to the Expositor. | would thank you
to change my address to Rochester,
Wash, where | intend to make my
future home during my natural life.
Have bought small tract Of land
consisting of twenty acres, all black
soil, three to six feet deep and not
stump or stick or stone on the
place. 1t is an improved place with
house, barn and chicken houses, a
small patch of strawberries from
which the former owner cleared $3.50
and never picked berry himself.
Other people would pick for them
selves and pay a certain price for the
fruit. Besides this patch of straw
berries, there are all kinds of other
berries, blackcaps, raspberries and
blackberries. There are number of
fruit trees, just how many or kinds
| do not know, but / think there are
plum, pear, apple and cherry.
In January blowing begins and dig
ging potatoes that are left in the
for the spring or early summer sale
before the new potatoes come onto the
market. A high price is commanded.
In Rochester last year a cabbage was
raised that tipped the scales at 120
pounds. DO you think this can be
beaten in good old Michigan? This
is no fairy tale. Rutabagas that COW
er fields, grow as large as COM
mon teakettle, carrots that grow a
yard long, oXhearts as large round
as wooden quart measure.
| have been in this country for the
last five or six years and have seen
no section that will compare with the
country around Centralia and Roch-
ester between which places ] am To-
Gated but get my mail at Rochester,
il being nearer my home.
The climate here is away ahead of
that of the East. | can not stand the
excessive heat of the summer or the
extreme cold in the winter During
my residence near Yale all my early
life | suffered with rheumatism and
catarrh. | am not troubled with those
ailments now at all.
A man living in Seattle today, who
is as spry as any young man, had to
BE- carried OIL ii stretcher to the train
when he left Michigan. His trouble
was rheumatism. You see what this
climate did for him.
These few lines might interest the
readers of the Expositor and as my
son (Myron EarD of two years
wishes also to write the Spositor
mans l will draw to a close. l re-
main your well wisher for success
and prosperity with your paper.
Very sincerely yours,
ALEX. G.. WILLOUGHBY.
p. S. James Teets was looking fine
the last time | saw him. 1t seems to
agree with him as with all others who
come out here He wishes to be re-
membered.

+. f. Fead is getting material on
the ground to build a fine new resi-
dence on the lot corner of Wood and
kennifick streets where his dwelling
now stands. Mr.. Fead has purchased
the Hart property in the rear and will
tear the old house down and remove
his present dwelling house onto the lot,
fitting it up to rent. Yale has num-
Der of beautiful residences and our en-
terprising and prosperous citizens are
adding new ones each year.
The Yale Wooden Mills is making
changes and improvements to its plant
whenever needed. The latest is the
installing Of sprinkler sys IN
throughout the buildings. Perforated
water pipes will be so distributed and
arranged that when heat originating
from lire reaches certain temperature
and strikes them a spray of water will
flow from the pipes extinguishing the
blaze. The present rate of insurance
is $l.57 per hundred while the new rate
will be 15cts. The company can
double the amount now carried and
the saving will pay for the system in
two years besides getting what is call
ed blanket policy.

1t is the guess of good many of
the Republicans in the Sixth Congress
sional district that DIR. J. B. Dyke of
Lebanon will be nominated as a can
didate for congress, and that there
will be no opposing candidate of
either wing of the Republican party.

toned in Bert Walkers paper of Os-
borne, his home town, as good man
for the place, but Mr.. Sample has
sold his business to Mahin, Mahin g.
Mahin of Smith Center. Mr.. Sa mple
goes to San Diego, Cal. and will take
a partnership in the law practice
with ex-senator J. T. Reed and
leaves some time in December for his
new field of work.
Ex-CongreSSman i. D Young does
not want the nomination. This
leaves the field clear for DIR. Dykes
and his friends are insisting on his
making the race 1t is safe to say
he will be a candidate
DIR. Dykes has always been loyal to
the Republican ticket. He has served
the last ten years as chairman of the

and has always kept Smith county in
