The hurdle race for officers of the

Palmer lay back in the field for the

HARVEY M. SHIELDS
 FORMERLY 0F CITY
 DIES IN TEXAS CITY
Pastor of Episcopal Church Here and Later of Dawson, N. M. Passes. Remembered Here by Many.

Word received in the district yester- day morning announcing the death of the Rev. Harvey M. Shields. pastor Of the Episcopalian Church in Dawson. New Mexico. and resident of Bisbee in the same capacity for about seven years, brought sadness to great num- Der of his friends His death occurred in Mineral Wells, Texas, where. with Mrs. Shields. his daughter and young est son. he had gone in search of bet ter health. His oldest son was in Bis bee al the time of his death.
 Harvey Shields was known in Bisbee as man of the people. He was not held aloof. as are most ministers. and in that quality lay his charm and his grasp of the peoples affections. He came to Bisbee in 1900 and left here in 1907 for the post in the New Mexi- co town. He has been located there since that time. As testimony of the manner in which he was esteemed at Dawson and in Colfax county. New Mexico, it might be said that he was a member of the board of county con- missioners tbere for several terms. The last time the place was forced upon him by his many friends.
 The deceased was practically a pro duet of New Mexico. his father coming to that state in about 1879. The fath- CT died at Jemez Hot Springs last fall. While in Bisbee MT Shields was an active member of the Elks, of which ne enjoyed a life tenure. of the Fla gles and Of several other fraternal or ganiZations.

ANOTHER SUCCESS
 FOR COMEDY SHOW

"All On Account of a Count" at the Orpheum last night was another sue cess for the Manhattan players. who in their short stay here have reason to be proud of the impression they have created among Bisbee playgoers
 Tommy La More and Arthur Ha ri. son as usual formed a capital team. A refreshing fact about the comedy of those two is that it is quite free from the vulgarity and coarseness which mars the effectiveness of many otherwise clever comedians.
 Miss Stella Maylield created a most favorable impression, the more so as on this occasion her charming ap. pearance was without disguise, and her singing of the telephone song was most cordially received Her yer vatility is proven by the fact that in the four plays in which she has taken part she has assumed four to- tally different types of character. and and each with conspicuous success.
 Miss Ruth Leslie and Wm. True hart, whose repertoire appears to be as varied as it is excellent, made a remarkably clever display in the Yer non Castle One-Step" Their dancing

INFLUENCE FROM
 WASHINGTON HARD ON SHORT MARKET
Stocks Were Again Under Pressure Though a Few of the Specialties Respond to Manipulation and Soar.

NEW YORK, March 4.-Although there were no developments during the short session. stocks weer again under uncertain influences, resulting from the situation in Washington. Trading was light to the point of utter apathy. In tn efirst half of the session, a few specialties. chiefly Petroleums, tobaccos and coppers, were manipulated to higher levels. Later the market began to drop in all quarters. Total sales of stocks were I65,O00 shares.
 Bonds were steady. the total sales par value being S1.250,000.

was marked by perfect ease and grace of movement, and the rlosest critic of their act would find it impossible to detect a flaw or false step.
 Miss Floe Collins has never been heard to better advantage than in her song "The Dainty Damosel,' with which she charmed her hearers last night. responding to an encorse with the plaintiye little ballad Little Gray Mother" which evoked as much ap- plause as the first number When it is remembered that Miss Collins is but twenty years old it is easy to forecast for her in a few years the highest measure of success in her pro ession.
 It would seem that when the work a chorus is effective thef should he as well entitled to mention as the principals, and the Manhattan Girls Chorus, consisting Misses Blondy Wood, Hazel Elliott, Dot Bernard, Tiny Bennett, Mildred Lee, and Floe Collins are certainly deserving re cognition or their dery capable work. It has been noted that they are as ull o nerve and spirit at the conclus- ion the perormance as in the open ing number

While the Musical Director has one of the most difficult parts of the bill, he rarely receives adequate notice for his share in the success of a piece and in the event of it's failure the en- tire blame is usually put on his shoul- ders. Paradoxical as it may seem,
 Mir. Jack Adams accompaniments are so uniformly good that they pass almost unnoticed except b ythe most careful observer, and it is evident that his work is mainly instrumental in producing the smoothness with which the Manhattan COmpany's plays run from the opening to the drop Of the curtain.

BOSTON, March Alt looks as if the situation in Washington was clear ing up. There seems to be better feeling prevailing in New York, busi- ness continues at high water mark. Foreign demand is large even if ship ments are small because of lack of transportation facilities. However. se- curity prices may fiuctuate as the stocks are worth more than they were six months ago. The stock market has acted well considering the disqui- ctirg rumors, with which it has had 10 contend, undoubtedly liquidation of weak accounts have been thorough and 2 heavy short interest created. All that is needed is favorable news to start change in speculation senti- ,ment. In the meantime there is a steady investment absorption on all recessions.
