.HURRYING To-
MEET THE NEED
Entertainment Next Tues
day Night Will Give Full
Value Twice Over.

All arrangements are complete for
one of the most thoroughly interesting
and enjoyable entertainments ever
given III Ell Paso, to be given next
Tuesday night at s o'clock sharp. at
the Ell PasO theater. The entertain
ment is for the benefit of the fund for
relief OF Belgian women and children
exclusively and tickets at soc each
are on sale at downtown stores, offices
and hotels. 1t is hoped that the adj
vance sale viii be so large that a sec
ond performance will become neces-
sary. The amount suggested for each
lndlVldual 10 SlVe-$1 or half that's
small in proportion to the sums spent
on less necessary things, AID thou
sands could give that much without
missing It. But 81 buys a quantity of
flour, condensed milk and canned meat
that viii sustain the life of a mother
and her children for number Of days.
Besides the brief lecture by a native
Russian on travels on central Asia,
there VIII be more than 100 beautifully
colored lantern slides to show, of
scenes never before pictured in this
country. DR.. c. c. Young (Kiriu
ChristianOvitch in Russian), who will
describe the views after a brief intro
duction to the subject is under a five
years contract with the national ChaU-
tauqua, by whose permission he gives
\ this lecture free for the relief fund
Besides the beautiful pictures and the
lecture, there will be Russian music
Bean; Russian folk songs by Mrs. H.
H. Stark, Mr. Christian and Dr. Young;
Russian folk dances by Miss Ruby
Stone with orchestra accompaniment;
and Russian orchestral music Mrs.
W. R. Brown and Mrs V. I. Bean will
be the accompanies. Misses stella
BricA Camille Kibler, Dema Fleck,
Beatrice Pateman, Sarah Bridgers
Reba Elliott Clara Fink, Nora Sanders
and Margaret Bryan viii act as ushers,
under the direction of Mrs W. W.
Bridgers. All the participants IN the
evenings entertainment viii wear
typical Russian costumes many OF
them brought over from Russia by
DR.. Young, others secured for the oc-
casion. The program will begin
promptly at s. Cars may be ordered

Fund Mounts Steadily.
Another hundred has been added to
the fund since yesterday, and cash re-
turns become more numerous each day.
In fact the expectation is that the
longer the people hold their tickets
without making a return, the greater
likelihood there is of check or bill
peeking out Of the envelope when the
return is finally made to headquarters
So there is reason to be sanguine Tor
a degree Of success higher than any
body dared to hope for. The partici-
pants in the very interesting program
all volunteer their services free for the
cause, hence the expenses will be care
fully kept down to a necessary mini
mum: rent of the theater is the big
gest item, and the court receiver oper-
ating the theater has cut the rate to
two-thirds of the regular commercial
rate in consideration of the purpose
of the entertainment He would glad
" cut it down more OF donate the
house if it were not for the require
ments of the court orders under which
he is managing the property.
