Scholars Furnish
Nights Enjoyment

The presentation OF "Esmeralia
at the assembly-room OF the high
school last evening by members OF
the graduating class was a success,
hstrionCally and financially. TIE
large room was filed to overt1OwinG
with friends and relatives of those
who took part and they enjoyed
every word Of the dialogue. The
only marring feature was the wait
between acts but under the condi-
ton, that could hardly be avoided.
"Esmcralda" is one of the prctticst
little comcdy-dramas that has been
put on the stage in recent years, full
of humor and pathos, and back of 1t
all j. the schcming design OF an am
bilious woman. This part was ably
portrayed by Miss Edythe Johns.
The other characters were Creditably
represented by Adele NorCross as
Esmeralda, Alice Towle as Nora
Desmond. Clara floopes as Kate
Desmond, Gladys Fuchs as Sophie,
Elvina llcidcnrcich a, the Marquis,
Franklin Morrison as MIR. Rogers.
Arnold Millard as Dave Hardy, llar-
ry Day a, Mr. Estabrook, Ralph
Twaddle as Jack Desmond and Neil
Taylor as George Drew. The parts
were all SO we'll sustained that one
was hardly entitled to more credit
than another. 1t required all Of
them to give the play its full zest
and each was up to standard.

and between twenty-five and thirty
miles OF laterals, to the lands to be
irrigated.
The area for which Mr. Buol eN-
poets to furnish water comprises be
tween 1000 and 10000 acres of the
choicest land in the valley, which,
has been gradually secured by NJ.
Ruol during the past ten years.
To be able to sell lands with d
guaranteed water right will solve
the problem of populating the Vegas
valley. The remarkable productive
ty of these lands when furnished
with plenty of water and brought t.
a proper state OF cultivation will at
tract men OF means who will quicN

The capital for carrying out th;,
big irrigation enterprise is being fur
nished by English and Scotch capi-
talists, thanks to the far slg!tedncs,
Of Mr.. Buol who has been for years
laying the foundation for this work.
The work will be pushed to compile
ton as fast as good Judgment will
allow and Las Vegas may soon bt
enjoying the agricultural growth and
prosperity to which for several
years she has been looking forward.

last night characterized the Mexican
situation as extremely delicate. This
comment referred particularly to the
mediation conference, which will be

it also applied to conditions in north

he should have complete military
