ROYAL HORSE TROUPE
 WITH SELLS FlOTO

During their engagement here on Wednesday, Aprll ,. the management of the Selis-FIoto circus will present the greatest band Of Highland Pipers in the world, known to fame as the Royal Scotch Kilties Of Toronto, Can ada.
 These men will appear both in the parade and at regular performances the kits and tartans Of their clans. and will bring with them the memories of the gallant battles, wherein the Highlander has contributed to his tory since time began.
 At the regular performances, the Royal Kilties will appear, giving con. certs with the Pipes and DFumc. folk, lore songs and the various dances so aear to the heart of every Scotchran.
 There will be no extra charge for this; their number being part of the regular performance. Let it not be forgotten that the Sells-Floto people still adhere to their cut-rate policy iu price-the admission to the whole entertainment being 25 cents.
 Do you know said the Almighty Voice of tine Sells-Floto Circus, do you know that hippotamus doesn't have to swim around in a tank Of water in order to keep him alive as most folks popularly supposed? Why Ron, our baby hippotacgus, plays around n a cage, right on the ground floor of the mensgerie, nearly all day long and only goes back to his tank when it stime to go to bed"
 The discovery that he could live cut of the water just like other anl- mals who are not amphi5ious, was only made last winter We had . cold spell and the hot water pipes in Bon's tank froze so that he had to be re- moved from his regular den until the repairs were made. We put him in a small enclosure on the ground floor of the home menagerie and contnary to our expectations he made himseIs perfectly at home. Then Recardo, our head animal trainer, undertook -so teach him to stand on a rolling bah and other difficult feats, which he learned just as easily as the average animal"
 Bon will be seen in the menagerie Of the SeIls-Floto Circus before and after the performances which commence at 2:l5 and S:15 D. m-, although the doors are open one hour earlier in order that the patrons may view the mena8erie and Horse Fair for which this attraction has always been so justly noted.

kO DIVIDEND FOR
 HE RAY OR CHINO
Directors of These Porphyry Companies Take No Ac- tiOn at Their Meeting

Directors Of the Ray and Chino cop per companies took no action on divi- dsnds at their meetings Thursday. Regarding the action of the directors Ar. Hayden, of Hay den, Stone G Co.,, saukers for these two companies, says:
 The recently published quarterly reports of the Ray and Chino com pauies showed clearly and fully the operating conditions at the properties ana their earnings. The decision not 10 declare initial dividends today on Key and Chino was in nc way based 4pon the question of what the earn iHgs have been, as they are thor oIghiy satisfactory. IL was based purely and simply upon the fact that the boards of directors of these two companies do not propose 10 make the initial dividend one winch is paid by borrowing money against copper.
 Until very recently the sales Of copper metal, covering a period Of perhaps 90 days, were very small. Recent large sales have been for de- livery in March, April and May. As soon as the companies have thus con yerteG sufficient copper into cash, div idends will be declared. There Is nothing special about April 1st' that makes it imperative that a dividend be declared today and payable then
 This statement is issued so that the stockholders may be fully advised as to the attitude of the directors re- garaing this matter.

VAUDEVILLE OF
 BEST IS COMING
Orpheum Makes Ten-Strike in Entering the Western Vaudeville Managers As SOciation
ASSURES HIGH CLASS

Final telegrams were exchaug lest evening between the orpheum management in Bisbee and the West crn Vaudeville Managers association. with headquarters sn Chicago, under which the Orpheum became a mem her Of the association and will to- morrow night present it's hrst list O. attractions from the " V A $ $ hook ings.
 In securing the new service, the Or pheum joins with the strongest vau- deville management in the country and will bring to Bisbee higher class of vaudeville than has ever be- fore been seen here. The reason for this is in the fact that the w. V M. A. gives to vaudeville performers a more satisfactory arrangement of travel and guarantees than previous ly worked out by any vaudeville tour ing management.
 For this reason it has been able to make its own selection from the ranks Of vaudeville throughout the country, and routing it's shows from Chicago over well chosen route, giving the performers the most satisfactory jumps and the largest maTgin of gla-- antee between Chicago and San Fran cisco and return has established it. self in the good sraces of performers with result that 1t readily gets the hest and can refuse all else.
 Leaving Chicago. performers of the Managers association are supplied with railroad transportation covering their entire route Ali important cities. coming by way of Denver and d hs, northern route, are booked and the class of attractions booked for Bis bee toHorrow night filled their Den yer booking of five nights last week with standing room only signs out a. each performance.
 Heretofore Bisbee in common with all Arizona has been obliged to large extent to take whatever might be sent. this as a rule being inferior, tho coast proper holding the lest. From now on. however. it will be another story. For the best, the coast will have to wait on Arizona Naturally the Bisbee Orpheum management is pleased both with getting the new service and the much better attrac- tions it will provide. as well as with the consideration given Bisbee as 2 good show town by the Chicago organ ization.
