Antonio's newest and finest playhouse,
the Palace, is set for March 3. There
will be but one performance on the
opening night, the doris being thrown
open to the public at Z o'clock and
the performance comemncing promptly
at 8 o'clock.
The Palace is unique among theaters
in several respects, the most promi-
nent of which is the long winding ar
cade running from Alamo plaza to Lo-
soya street. This arcade serves as
both exit and entrance TO the theater
proper. which is situated in the CEN
ter of the block. The arcade is fur
nished with a series of magnificently
decorated shopwindows that will line
one side of the promenade. The floor
of the arcade is in Venetian red tile
and harmonizes splenddly with the
general scheme of the theater.
Don Felice and his S0-piece SYM
phonJ orchestra have been strenuously
rehearsing for the past two weeks and
he declares his musicians are the best
he has ever been able to group to-
gether. He has carefully weeded out
his various pieces until he has gath
cred an ensemble that is worthy of any
city. The Palace symphony Orchestra
will be the first musical organization
of its size in San Antonio whose sole
endeavors will be devoted to the daily
entertainment offered in modern the
alter. 1t is predicted that it will win
for itself a very prominent and influ.
entail position in the musical life of
the CITY,

he sent his son-in-lsw, Fred Brown,
of Yorktown, a few Of the choice seeds,
which he planted in his garden. These
seeds were planted late in the fall and
yet came up and, with the same re-
suits. would have produced over 8
bale to an acre had they been planted
during the summer.
Mr.. Hengst plans to experiment q
little more with his machine By max
ing the three wheels in the cylinder
larger, an experiment which he hopes
will increase the speed of separating
the seeds. He is thoroughly familiar
with the way the machine should work
and the results that should be obtained,
having farmed for 80 years near Cuero,
Tex. He moved to San Antonio three
years ago and has been engaged in
carpenter work and the construction
of his invention since that time. Mr..
Hengst will either sell the rights on
the machine or will make the machine
and sell them,

RICHES OF EGYPTIAN
TOMB NO SURPRISE TO
BRITISH MUSEUM HEAD
Sir Frederick Kenyon Says
Ancients Took Everything
Movable to Craze.
BY JOHN GARDINER


Copyright. by The San Antonio IAght.
Montreal Que, Feb. 21.-Sir Fred.
erick Kenyon. director of the British
Museum, who is on a visit to this
country and will later visit several
American cities, is not surprised AT
the richness and completeness of the
paraphernalia being found in the
tomb of Tutankhnmen.
Olden kings, he says, took with them
on their heavenly journey about every
thing they possessed on this earth
except possibly the kitchen stove. The
ancient Egyptians, in particular, be-
lieved it best to carry along complete
furnishing for their apartments in the
hereafter.
They did not carry to their graves
comforting thoughts of peace and
plenty in the LeKt world. Instead
they believed in the policy of prepar'
edness and wanted war implements
and equipages put near them in death
even as they crayed to have the pres
ence of alabaster vases and precious
jewels. The faithful worshippers oil
Osiris, Isis, and the hawk-headed Ra
took no chances on the conyeniences
and equipment OF the world to come.
IL is too early, according to Sir
Frederick to discus the disposition
to be made of the treasures now being
unearthed. The matter must be left
in the hands of Lord Carnarvon and
Egyptian authorities. There is enough
to enrich the museums of nearly all
the world.
King Tut's tomb escaped plumber
ing evidently because of the fact that
another tomb was discovered some
time ago right close to it. and the
robbers did not trouble TO look so close
by for another rich haul. Most Of
the Egyptian tombs have been plund
cred with nothing left in them but
the commercially valueless mummics

Mr.. Hengst's separator is a large

The large cylinder. through which

simultaneously revolves the spindle

BIG FUTURE AHEAD
Manufacture See Growth Unless Pro
hibitOry Laws Are Passed.

At least 1000 factories will be To-
Gated in San Antonio within the next
seven years if the normal rate OF in
crease which has taken place during
the past decade is maintained, accord
ing to c. G. Leel, secretary of the San
Antonio Manufacturers Association.
This means that by 1880, under nor
NAL conditions, San Antonio indus
tries will more than double both in
number of establishments and number
of employees engaged, while the value
of manufactured products will reach
at least S120,OO0,000 annually. This
will be Conditional ONLY upon no ad-
verse legislation being passed by the
state Legislature, which will act detri-
mentally to the increaes and success
full operation of our present industries,
and which would make other states
which do not possess such laws more
attractive to the manufacturers We
know are looking toward this territory
as an attractive field for investment.
One hundred owners and managers
of industrial plants will meet We'd
nesday night at S O'Clock in the of
flee of the San Antonio Manufactur-
ers' Association in the Gunter Hotel
to discuss the general business outlook
and to hear reports of committees
which have been handling matters of
vital Importance to local factories. The
present status of all industrial legis-
latiye measures now under considera'
ton at Austin will be presented and
the work accomplished by the asso'
citation since January will be dis
cussed. Twenty new members will be
introduced, and an interesting session
is anticipated. President Arthur
Storms will preside.

EXPENSES WITHIN
SPECIFIED SUMS
STATE DEPARTMENTS, HOLDING
WITHIN ESTIMATES, ACCORDING
TO BUDGET OFFICER.

Approximately 10.5 per cent of the
appropriations made from the general
fund of the state by the legislature
had been spent at the close of the
first three months of the biennium, it
is announced by George W. Lewis,
state budget officer, who has made
up report of the expenditures of
all state departments and institutions
for that time.
Dividing the two year period into
eight three-month sections would al
low each state department and insti-
tuition to expend in each three months
121k per cent of it's appropriation
made by the legislature. Mr.. Lewis
report at Boise, Saturday, shows that,
as whole, the state officers have kept
below this mark but there are indi-
vidual cases of where the 121a per
cent has been exceeded
Expenditure Held Normal
The total appropriations made by
the legislature from the general fund
amounted to $4,486, ,O29.45 and of this
amount there had been expended
March 81, $475, 1854.
The largest expenditure was made
by the University of Idaho which paid
out approximately $4,000 from a
fund of $8S0,403.
Several state departments show ex-
penditures for equipment, supplies,
etc., amounts which are more than
12H per cent of the amount appropri-
ated by the legislature for these speci-
fic purposes.
g 1t should be explained" Mr. Lewis
said, that this is because it is neces-
sary for practically all departments to
purchase new supplies at the begin
ming of the year for the entire year
or two-year period, thus requiring the
expenditure of a greater part of their
appropriation for these purposes"
There are several departments,
however, which show more than the
121. per cent limit for salaries and
wages. These are:
The reclamation department which
has expended 1871 per cent of its SAL
ary appropriation; secretary of state,
1873 per cent; motor vehicle registra-
tion department, 1888 per cent; deaf
and blind school, 14,4 per cent; Idaho
Technical institute, 1873 per cent, and
the University of Idaho, 1922 per cent?

one issued Friday, every three months
during the binnium and the auditor
is required to notify each department
and institution of the standing of its

TOO MUCH HOOCH GETS
YOUNG MAN in BAD

A young man by name Of Hanson,
of Kendrick, was arrested Saturday
evening and gave $50 cash bond
for his appearance tomorrow in pO-
lice court to answer to charge of
disorderly conduct. The young man
is said to have been gloriously drunk
and had been wandering around the
streets annoying people and using
profahe Language. He went into the
Third Street Market and was max
ing himself obnoxious, when Arthur
Craig, who happened to be present,
landed blow on his jaw, which was
sufficient reason for him to move on.
He then got in his car, which was
in front of the Frantz hardware, and
was making a drunken effort to start
the car when Prosecuting Attorney
Moore came along and took him out
of the car and turned him over to
Chief of Police Silvey, who was on
his trail. He was averse to being
placed under arrest and put up quite
a scrap.
