G. DUN & CO. Mercantile Reports. Mercantile Collections. EL PASO OFFICE: 112 SOUTH the vocal organs of youngsters, and the little fellcws who sang their songs last night showed the perfection of that kind of training. The children of the public schools took an important part in making the entertainment a financial success, for they sold a great number of tickets. By way of reward the schools were closed a litlte earlier than usual and the little ones were given tickets for the matinee. They filled every nook and cranny of the house and made their little hands sore applauding the songs of other Juveniles on the stage. No less enthusiastic was the audience at night, nearly every number on the program being encored. Mr. Roney, however, found it necessary during the rendition of the second number to stop and administer a striking rebuke to the ushers for tbe noisy manner in which they performed their work. It reaiiy seemed as if the employes had entered into an agreement to see how hadr they could slam the seats down and create as much disturbance as pos sible. Moreover, this is a matter of general practice and should be consis teptly condemned The first number on the program was a violin solo by Master Tracy Hol- brook. It was that brilliant but cx ceedingly difficult composition. Wieni awsicis Second Polonaise, and it was rendered by the young artist in a man ner that at once established him with the audience. The work of young vio lin virtuosos is more frequently than not a sort of gymnastic exercise and rapid dignity of manipulation, but not w with this youngster. His playing showed that he was not only a master ot tbe instrument but that he loved it. Ia ike polonaise he exhibited a wonder ful technique and fine bowing, and in Schusert's "By the Sea" a sympathy and delicacy of touch no less remark able. He was recalled time after time and fairly captured the house with the artistic manner in which he played that sweet old song "The Last Rose of Sum mer." Harold Maurer. the .ontrnlto. a boy of 14. sang Rodney's "The Sol dier's Dream" with fine efTect and un derstanding. His voice was very sweet and even, the lower register be ing exceptionally good. Master Harry Cockrell. aged 11. and the baby of the company, brought a smile to the lips and perhaps a little moisture to the eye by his singing. He was such a tiny tid-bit of child hood to have his place upon the con cent stage; one felt that he ought to be at home and tucked up in bed. Never theless he did his little part in fine style. He warbled in the most remark able way in a staccata polka by Mul der.' his voice running over three oc taves with -astonishing ease. As an encore he sang a dainty litle bit "Love Wrnt Sinsing." Then came Master Jamie Crippen, aged 13.. Among the child artists there is no doubt that he is the star. With a most winning personality, a voice tweet, pathetic and true in every note, perfect enunciation, and self possess ion without forwadrness. he charmed everyone present. He sang that dif ficult aria from Mignon. "Dost Thou Know That Sweet Land" with a con ceptio nof ail it contained that was lit tle short of marvelous. In response to the enthusiastic encore he gave the one "When I'm Big I'll Be a Soldier." Blatchford Kavanagh was entirely satisfying. His voice is a baritone of the richest quality and as it matures it will undoubtedly be a remarkabte or ran. He sings today with the same ar tistic thoroughness, added to a more mature understanding as characterized his work as a boy when he received fl.AQO a night. He feels what he sings and he makes the audience feel too. His singing of Buck's "Bedouin Love Song" J.nd Cowles's "Forgotten" earn ed the wxrm approval of the audience, and in resnonse to repeated demands gave "The Kentucky Home" with much feeling. In addition to the solos there were duets and trios and quartets, all Of a class of music which test the vocal powers o( matured and cultured sing 'era.

From the Saturday Evening Post. Several hundreds years ago Sir Wal ter Raleigh made the definition which will always exist. He said: "The dif ference between a rich man and a poor man is this the former eats when he pleases and the latter when he can get it." In the natural course of things the poor will be always more or less at the mercy of the rich, and while civilization is doing great things for us. building glorious monuments in art and industry, and increasing almost incredibly the luxuries and conven iences of life, at the same time it is multiplying the poor. Poverty is always hard, but the most awful type of It is that of which mil lions are victims the lot of those who work and get barely enough to keep body and soul together. Most of them get a Christmas dinner, but the other 1094 meals know neither turkey nor dessert. It is the gradual Improvement of these that is the problem in the re ligion and humanity of the day. The safety and the true progress of any na tion are not found in the prosperity of the few, but in the soundness and the happiness of the many, and it Is hard to be either sound or happy on one good meal a year. ARMOUR'S HATRED OF CANT. The late Philip Armour, above all things else-, hated hypocrisy and cant. A writer in the World's Work relates. in this connection, a characteristic anecdote: On one of his many quiet trips through the poorer parts of Chicago, Mr. Armour came upon a family in great destitution. The husband had broken his leg while at work. The wife was suffering from rheumatism. The six children were without food. Mr. Armour did not stop to inquire what the antecedents of the family were, but that day sent food and money to them. Soon afterwards a clergyman who knew of the case called on Mr. Armour and told him that he had made a mis take in succoring the hungry ones. "Why so?" asked the merchant. stroking his side whiskers in a medi tative manner. "Because." was the minister's reply, the woman is an irreligious sinner. fallen from grace and society." "You ." replied Mr. Armour. you are a canting bigot unfit to teach the doctrines of Jesus Christ. Get out of this office." THE GREATEST IN THE WORLD. From the Saturday Evening Post. Every state has increased in popula tion, and the only city which has ap parently lost is the one which padded ts returns ten vears ago and now suf fers for its folly. The United States now has a larger population than any European country except Russia; and the average of our wealth and productive capacity car ries us far beyond that kingdom in real greatness. Germany, among European countries, comes next to the United States, but it can show only a population of 52,279,601. or about two thirds of our toatl. In area the United States, with its new possessions, is about as large as all Europe. In its wealth it is the richest nation the woHd has ever known. QUESTION ANSWERED. Yes, August Flower still baa the largest sale ot any medicine In the civ ilized world. Your mothers and grand mothers never thought of using any thing else for Indigestion or Billloua ness. Doctors were scarce, and they seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart Failure, They used August Flower to clean oat the system and stop fermentation of undi gested food, regulate the action of the liver, stimulate the nerves and organic action of the system, and that is all the took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches.
