GAYETY-Burlesque.

Dave Marion's own company is the
a attraction at the Gayety this week
and. although Dave does not put in
an appearance on the stage, his hand
is seen in the management of the
production. 1.-THE Land of Impossi-
BILE" as the two-act musical play is
entitled, is an entertaining mixture of
songs, dances and novel stage effects.
Emil Casper, q black-face comedian,
is the star of the show. his work in
the graveyard scene being one of the
funniest stunts on the burlesque stage.
and his eccentric dancing won him
rounds of applause. viii Ward and
George Mack also have prominent
parts in the production. the former in
comedy work and the latter in new
songs that went big. The Byron
Brothers Saxo Band furnished plenty
of jazz music. Inez De Verdier and
Rose Bernard led the feminine cast
with a number of popular songs. The
chorus is exceptionally large and we'll
drilled and the costumes form a
very pleasing color array. The seem
cry is something new for the bur-
lesque stage and the mechanical ef-
fects. notably the sinking Of ship
at sea and the fire in the last act are
very realistic,

Judge Brlce ON the Primary

| The democrats of ChaVes county
take politics very seriously. But
| the democratic central committee
of Roswell decided to let everybody
vote at the city primaries called by
| that organization who would prom.
| Use to support the nominees. This
was because a ticket must desig.
nate the party which submits it fot
a primary election. and no repub-
| lican ticket or citizens ticket was
proposed. There was an element,
| however, that said nobody should
| be allowed to vote at the primary
who did not prove up as a demo-
crat. So they started something
| to secure an injunction against the
! liberal plan of the committee. and
went before Judge Brice at Clovis
to secure protection against dilut-
ling democratic organization. This
remarks of that jurist are interest.
ing. Judge Brice said, according
to the Roswell News;
This court has no jurisdiction
| to interfere in the strictly party
matter of determining who shall
vote at the democratic primary, or
the primary called the Roswell
democratic committee. That 1t may
injure the party, or that republi-
cans may vote therein, or that the
members of the committee have
departed from democratic. usages
or even violated the trust imposed
upon or in them by their party, is
not sufficient grounds for the in
reference of a court, and their
punishment, if any should be met
ed out, are matters of party disei-
pline. The argument that repub-
licans are enjoying the predica-
| ment of the democrats and with
ghoulish glee squeak and gihber on

THE UNCLAIMED DEAD.

Eleven thousand American SOL

swcr 10 the war departments re-

majority of the parents of the hero

be returned for investment in their
native soil; a considerable nFnber

the homes of the 1000 there has
come no answer. They are I'M

It is not to be wondered that a
great wave of sympathy is urg
ing throughout the country fer
these lonesome spirits who have
none to show interest in their place
of last abode. A cosmopolitan
army they were in life. Many of
them had no home, no family, no
dear ones. To many of them Amer
lea was but a symbol, a hope; a
land whose language they had not
learned, but a land whose great
spirit had touched and warmed
their hearts, Mutcly, obscurely,
they went to battle for their adopt
ed country; unknown they fought;
humbly they died. Unhonored,
they sleep.
Perhaps somewhere in a distant
land, someone wonders where they
are, whether they live or not. Per
haps some time, a tear is brushed
from the eyes of some one who
despairs at the interminable ST.

need not be large, nor need they be
brilliant so long as they possess
somewhere in their depths a light
that fascinates and charms the be-
holder. 1t was poor Eve who fell
a prey to the magnetism OF the
first pair of ophidian eyes, but it
is the guileless Adams of today
who are supposed to fall for the
charms of the truly up-todate
snake Orbs.

fact seems to have been rather

She thus describes herself: "pcC-

oppression" which she haC Just
escribed-"there was fixed look
which resembled that of a serpent
when fascinating his prey, dream
ing, passionate eyes. somber he
cause the soul reflected in them

Among those who were fascinated
by these dreaming. passionate eyes

American readers know more of
George Sands amours than they
do of her noVels-were Chopin the
great Polish composer, de MUSES.,
the French poet and Jules Sandcau,
a leading journalist of the day,
In literature the prize pair Of
snake eyes was created by an
American novelist-Oliver Wendell
Holmes-and the pOssessor of them
was Elsie Venner in the novel that
bears her name. They were the
real thing. They didn't just look
like them; you are led to believe
that there actually was something
of the snake within the makeup
or this unfortunate young woman.
She is thus described: BLACK
piercing eyes. not large-a low
forehead, as low as that of Clytie
in the Townley bust,-black hair,
twisted in heavy braids,-a face
that one could not help looking ut
for its beauty, yet that one wanted
to look away from for something
in that expression, and could not
for those diamond eyes"
Throughout the book there are
FREQUENT references to these did-
mond like snake eyes of Elsie Ven

and drops his eyes a little so as 70

On one occasion when the doctor

saws: "She narrowed her lids
slightly as one often sees a sleepy
cat narrow hers-somewha as you

his eyes and looked at heF over
his spectacles again.
