CIRCUS PAGEANT
NEEDS ACTRESS
F.. WITHOUT FEAR
Al. G. Barnes Had Difficulty
In Filling Role in Big
Spectacle.
lin, dangling a cane, leaving

Almost any &recognized actress
could enact the role of "Alice" in
in "AliCe in Jungleland," the I'M
usual spectacle which will open the
performances 20 be given by the AL.
G.. Barnes four-ring wild animal
circus in albuquerque Saturday,
october 30, but for one thing-the
story calls for Alice to awaken
with blood thirsty lions. Not many
Of the stage favorites would well
come realism of this nature.
That is why there has been only
one Alice" When AL. G.. Barnes,
who personally supervised the cast
ing and staging of this elaborate
spectacle, gave the role to Miss
Martha Florine, one of his fearless
animal trainers, who also is a clever
actress-he acted wisely-she has
never missed a performance and
Miss Marie Baudet, her under
study, has given up hope of ever
getting an opportunity to display
her nerve.
The spectacle is a decidedly new
feat. Unlike most circus pageants
it carries a real story, and the adj
ventures of "Alice" outrival those
of the widely known heroine of
Lewis CAROLS children's story,
alice in Jungleland." In addition
to introducing the hundreds of ami
mails of the Barnes menagerie, the
pageant brings out the entire acting
contingent of the circus. Four
prima donnas, two tenor soloists,
with grand opera experience,
and a carefully trained chorus OF
singers and dancers provide the
song numbers to the accompani-
ment of Edward Woeckner's So
piece concert band. Especially
written songs are intermingled with
the chants of the jungle and desert.
The costumes are designed to fit
the extravaganza and the offering
is best described as a revelation in
color and music"
So popular did "Alice in Jungle
land" become during the southern
California tour of the circus that
Mr.. Barnes received several offers
from film directors for the screen
ri hts to the spectacle.

POST FILLED BY
GRAZING EXPERT

The local office of the United
States forest service announces the
appointment of Kenner C. Kartch
ner as forest supervisor of the
Manzano national forest with head
quarters at Albuquerque. He will
succeed Ward Shepard, who was
recently transferred to Washing
ton. d. G.
Mr.. Kartchner comes to the
Manzano well fitted to handle the
many varied problems of the for
est. Having been born and raised
at Snowflake. Ariz., he is not new
to conditions In the southwest. Be.
fore entering the forest service he
had had experience with bt tn cat.
tie and sheep and for while war
actively connected with timber OPP
erations. His nine years of fores'
service experience, first as ranger
on the Sitgreaves forest and 'atel
as deputy on the Sitgreaves, Coco
nino and Lincoln forests. have also
admirably fitted him for the posi-
ton which he now takes. During
the past several ears his work
has been largely in connection with
grazing on the forests to which he
has been assigned. This work has
put him in very close touch with
the stock industry. whose present
problems and difficulties he under
stands thoroughly.
Mr. Kartchner and family arc

CLEANING TASK
At ROSE NWALDs
IS UNDER WAY
Water Entirely Removed
From Store Except for
Mattress Section Where
Caution Is Still Needed.

The task of cleaning the debris
from the lower two floors of the
Rosenwald department store was
completed yesterday, and much of
the wreckage from the unburned
section of the third story had been
cleared away.
Early Saturday morning, watch
men reported that a tiny bit OF
flame had been discovered in the
pile of mattresses where the con-
flagration started. 1t was quickly
extinguished and water from a
connection within the building Is
being kept ready for emergencies
The mattresses, some of them only
partly burned, will doubtless be
taken out Monday, at which time q
more definite idea of the losses VIII
be possible.
Although there was some street
criticism of the methods OF the tlre
department, Friday afternoon, a
careful view of the building late
Yesterday revealed the fact that
the strategy used by Chief William
Collister and his men was propa
bly, the best that could have peen
EMPLOYED. Due to the heavy
smoke from the varnishes, wax
and mattresses, an entrance from
the Central avenue side of the store
would have been difficult to ac-
complish and OF doubtful value.
There were columns piled hlg1
with dishes and glassware when
would have been demolished mad
the hose been brought through
the front window.
AS it was, the chief himself was
a member of the group that car
ried a line of hose from the second
floor up the stairway to fight the
fire from the front. By lying flat,
they were able to stay below the
smoke and turn the hose directly
onto the blazing pile from close
range.
Spectators on the street below
noticed once a stream of water
shoot out from a window on the
Fourth street side. This occurred
just as Chief Collister put on q
smoke mask and prowled his way
to the west side of the building.
He was able to find that the
stream of water being sent by the
men at the head of the stairs was
going too far to the north and
was shooting it out of the window.
He returned and directed that the
water be turned more directly into
the center Of the fire.
A view of the mattresses yester-

hardly burned at all. 1t was
thought at first that the fire in the
corner had virtually burned itself
out, but an examination revealed
the fact that the firemen were to
be credited with stopping it long
before that.

which are recommended by the bureau
of markets of the Department of Ag-
riculture as being sufficient in num-
Der to satisfy all legitimate require

S-quart, or l peck; 16-quart, or one

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
To eliminate fraud in the marketing
of fruits and vegetables by the sub
stitution of short measure packages
at full-measure prices is one of the
principal objects of specialists of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture now making a study of the hun
dreds of different types of contain
ers in use. For example, baskets
which contain seven-eighths of
bushel are frequently used as bushel
baskets, it being difficult to detect the
short measure In Farmers Bulletin
1906, from the bureau of markets,
just published by the department. the
specialists discuss the need for stand
ard containers for fruits and vege-
tables and describe how the public is
sometimes defrauded because of the
many types and sizes of containers
now in use.
Multitude of Sizes Increases Cost.
The serious lack of uniformity of
containers increases the cost of mar
the greater expense of manufacturing
a large number of unnecessary styles
and sizes and by breakage in transit,
which is sometimes directly attrbut-
able to the difficulty of loading odd
sized containers There are in com
mon use at present about 40 sizes of
cabbage crates. 90 styles of celery
styles and sizes of hampers, Is styles
and sizes of rOund-stave baskets and
marketing baskets varying in size from
] to "A quarts, whereas relatively
few standard sizes would satisfy all
demands of the trade. In many cases
the 6quart market basket, the IA
quart peach basket, the 7s-bushel bean
hamper, and the 5-peck lettuce hamp-
er are confused with peck, half
bushel and 11a-bushel baskets.
No Standard Hamper.
The federal standard barrel law and
the United States container act. which
establish standard containers, have
done away with a large number of I'M
necessary sizes of barrels, berry boxes
and grape baskets, and have awak
ened widespread demand for the ap-
plication of the same principle to
other containers, says the bulletin. At
present there is no standard hamper,
which is one of the most widely used
types of containers. especially popu-
lar in the eastern and central states.
Almost 100000 of these baskets are
