OFFICER 666"
FUNNY, CLEVER
Comedy Drama Is Being
Given High Glass Presen-
tation at the Crawford.

~Officer SOS" shown at the CraW-

drama and the local company is Civ
ing II a superb presentation The
story Of the international thief Of
paintings and Of the society man who
borrowed the uniform OF patrolman
Michael Phelan, No. 666. Is well known
TO theater goers and readers Of the
atrical reviews and the bright lines
and clever situations lose nothing in
the way the Otis oliver people handle
them.
In the first showing at Sundays
matinee, Thomas St Pierre, as Ira
Vsrs GladWin, had a part well suited
to his personality and likewise one
more pleasing to the audience than
any he has enacted heretofore Con-
seouently, he either was or seemed TO
be about 100 percent better than ever
before and established himself as a
first rate society herO-cOmedlan-
Better than anything ne has done
IN previous plays was Fred SelgaIs
acting in the role Of Alfred Wilson,
the international picture thief, and
those who have watched Mr.. Selgafs
fine work from week to week know
that is saying a great deal. He gives
10 the part the suavity. mental keen
ness and entire self possession and
control Of any situation which the
book requires and makes it all so
natural that the audience forgets
the stage-which is a triumph Mr..
Seigal ranks with the very best actors
who have held that role in Officer
666."
Though in a minor part, Fanny Fern
came out with fine acting and par
ticularly excellent facial expression in
the role of Mrs. Burton, mother Of
Helen Burton, who was Miss Franc
Dale. the leading woman Of the cast
Miss Dale had little opportunity IN
her rather colorless part, but played
Il up TO its full possibility
In fact, the whole company rose
above its usual good average in this

clean play, full Of genuine humor,
clever situations and good acting
should miss this chance H. s. H

WANTS 8 BATS,
DEAD Or ALIVE
Surgeon at Camp
Cody Needs Them for Ex-
periments With a Serum.

Three bats, dead or alive, are
wanted by DR.. A. o. Finney. Of the
division surgeons office of the 34th
army division at Camp Cody, Deming
n. NJ, according to a letter received
by C. c. Davis. 617 Martin building,
Ell Paso.
The bats are wanted not later than
January % by DR.. Finney for expert
mental purposes. and he states that
if they cannot be secured by that
time he will have to throw away
some serum cultures that he has for
experimental research work.
That it would take him a trip OF
a week in order to obtain the bats
wanted by DR.. Finney, was the state
ment made by Mr.. Davis. who is in
terested in west Texas bat guano de-
Dosits. He hopes that some one in
Ell Paso or near Deming will be able
to supply DR.. Finney with the bats
needed They should be sent c. o. ID.
by express or parcels post, or the
bill sent TO DR.. Finney.
Bat Caves Around FL Paso.
There are many bat caves in the
vicinity of FL Paso, it is stated, also
in the northern part OF Mexico The
guano is being used now in fertilizers
manufactured in the southern states
as q substitute for cottonseed meal,
which is very high in price at present.
There are also said to be many bats
in the western part of New Mexico
in the vicinity Of Lordsburg and Sill
yer City According to one theory,
bats consume large quantities of mus
quitoes in the summer time and are
thus preventives of the carrying OF
disease germs by these insects.
