“THE ROSARY." I have always believed that a play dealing with the tremendous power of our human thoughts was really needed upon the stage. Men and women arise In the morning iwrtf go about their work heedless of the fact that it Is their own attitude of mind that brings 1 them success or failure. That is what [is shown in The Rosary,” a beautiful new play from the pen of Edward IE. Rose and produced by Messrs RowI laud and Clifford, which will play at ■the Bosse opera house next Saturday October 26th, matinee and night. You can see the effect of thought upon the different individuals. One character is that of a business man happily married to a wife who loves him. But this thought is wrong. He harbors fear, doubt and unbelief in the good that lies all around him. He loses all: fortune, home, wife, even his own selfrespect. How does it end? Go and see "The Rosary."

THE PAST AND PRESENT OF HOME-COMING. Echoes recede, each becoming lesr distinct, while memories of past events advance or become vivid. Thus in advanced age the "Home-coming" event lias for us a joy inexpressible as we contrast in memory the past with the present. The Sabbath was a.day to be revered, and the Fourth of July a day to be celebrated. Three months of dark winter were "school days,’ while six mouths In sunshine and rain was "labor day.” l-et this suffice for pasl"X periences. The enthusiasm recently witnessed at the Home-coming week in Decatur is indicative of a good ancestry. The present generation is not only good entertainers but a provident and progressive people. Visiting the rural district we miss the great forest which once cumbered the ground. It has been removed and there remains only here and there a mere grove of young trees. Great areas of land lie open to view, and the undulations of valley and upland that were hidden by the primeval forest are apparent. Not a stump remains to mark the spot where the monarchs of the forest lifted its giant branches against the storms of a thousand years. In its stead the billowy meadows of green, or the tasseling corn extend beyond the vision. We looked in vain for the site where the log cabin sheltered a happy family from the blasts of the bleak winter. The back log and fore-stick have smoldered into ashes and the andirons have been sold for junk. The mansion with its furnace and architectural exterior challenges our admiration. The prattling child, clad in a recently laundried bib, and wearing shoes, comes trippling down the brick walk to greet the mail carrier and receive a message from grandma. • We visited the school ground where happy country lads and lasses contested for head-marks in spelling, "skipped the hard words.” in reading, and “learned the multiplication table by heart." Had the methods of the present day been required then, it would have resulted in a panic apd the teacher would have taken flight. Perhaps the teacher of today would take flight if required to abandon written spelling exercises, or the word method in teaching spelling and reading. A short drive on good roads, Such as the pioneer longed for, brought us into the city, and what a revelation it was to get there so soon. The astonishment increased when we struck the brick paved streets, and we stood in awe and bewilderment. The new and reconstructed buildings overshadowed every land mark. The morning of the fourth day preceding the "Home Coming" celebration was auspicious. "Old Glory,” in all the variety of splendor of which she is susceptible, waved a welcome throughout the city. Os the eventful week and its pleasures the Democrat gave a daily account. Before the week ended we felt under obligations to everybody in and out of Decatur for the excellence of the program presented, and the general smile accompanying the cordial greeting. D. J. ABER, New Mexico. ■ o PUBLIC SALE.
