“Your WE DEAD!”
It was June Travis who spoke.
“But haven’t you a boy or a girl to live for —honestly?’’ she asked
the gray-haired stooped veteran of many a prison term. There was a
note of sympathy in her voice but “Circle Jim " Borden cursed with the
inheritance of the Red Circle did not understand. All his life he had
been hunted as an enemy to society and he advanced toward the girl as
if to strike her.
The Red Circle
A gripping story of romance adventure and heredity written by
Albert Payson Terhune tells what happened as a result of that strange
neeting between society girl and criminal.
The Red Circle has been put into motion pictures bv the famous
HOUSE ofPATHE.

RED CROSS FORBIDDEN
Corpus Christi Business .Men Given
Hint to Stop Using Sign.
CORPUS CHRISTI Tex. Jan. 7.—
An interesting little incident has
leaked out in connection with the
Federal Court proceedings which
were held in Corpus Christi this
week. It is said that just after the
grand jury was impanelled it was
discovered that several Corpus
Christi firms particularly proprie-
tors of ambulances were using the
Red Cross emblem in connection
with their business. This is in di-
rect violation of the federal statute
protecting coyprights. Hence the
various men who had been using the
emblem were called before the grand
jury and requested to discontinue
use of it immediately else they would
be liable to prosecution. As a re-
sult the offenders are today remov-
ing the conspicuous decorations from
the various places in which they had
it displayed.
Pallas and Honey Peach Trees
and fifty other sure bearers for this
section. Come and see how fine the
trees are.

YOUNG PUBIS!
BIBS TRIUMPH
Recalled Many Times to Bow
Acknowledgement of En-
thusiastic Applause.
ORCHESTRA ALSO SCORES
Conductor Claassen's Work
Since Last Season Seen in
Improvement.
Compelled to return tn the stage
a half-dozen times to bow his ac-
knowledgment of the enthusiastic
applause accorded his artistic pres-
entation of the Liszt E Elat concerto
at the symphony concert at Bee-
thoven Hall Thursday evening. Har-
old Morris achieved his greatest suc-
cess as a concert pianist since re-
turning to his native city from Cin-
ctnnnati. Seldom has any visiting
artist been accorded anything more
nearly approaching an ovation.
As a feat of memorization alone
the playing of this masterpiece of
the great Hungarian composer and
pianist is almost a staggering un-
dertaking. Mr. Morris poetic in his
conception and Interpretation of the
various themes displayed a complete
mastery of the work holding the
rapt attention of even the least
musical of the large audience. Con-
ductor Arthur Claassen contributed
to Mr. Morris' success by keeping the
orchestra well In hand’ Those few
in the audience who knew of Mr.
Morris' tentative plans to seek other
fields of endeavor were inclined to
feel regret than San Antonio may
lose this talented member of Its
musical contingent.
Mme. d'Acugna Flenses.
Mine. V. Colombati d'Acugna for-
merly a grand opera star hut now a
fixture in San Antonio’s musical col-
ony. sang pleasingly two numbers
from Bizet's "Carmen." as the soloist
in the second part of the program.
Mme. d'Acugna who has interpreted
the title role in this opera many
limes has rich low tones which
v ere heard to advantage in the "Se-
guidilla."
The San Antonio Symphony Or-
chestra surprised even its most
ardent supporters by the. adequate
manner in which it handled its part
of the program under the baton of
Mr. Claassen. There has been a
great improvement since the or-
chestra's debut last season. The
various sections are better balanced
and there is more of confidence in
nftack. The orchestra as a whole
grasped the interpretations of the
conductor readily and gave instant
response.
it was a large and appreciative
audience which greeted the organi-
zation in its formal debut for the
second season. Beethoven hall was
filled with a thoroughly representa-
tive gathering which testified by
applause its interest and enthus-
iasm.
Program Is Pleasing.
The diversified program was
doubly pleasing. It gave the or-
chestra and conductor an opportun-
ity for the display of versatility nnd
was so balanced as to hold the in-
terest of all.
The ballet music front Rubin-
stein's “Feramors” and the overture
to Weber's "Euryanthe” were in de-
lightful contrast to the heavier
statelier Mozart symphony with
which the program was opened. The
majestic passages of the "Jupiter”
symphony In its four movements al-
legro vivace andante cantabtie. min-
uetto and molto allegro gave the
string sections an opportunity for
some especially pleasing work.’ The
imposing composition Is not lacking
in spontaneity as was brought out
in various passages.
Tn the afternoon a large number
of people attended the public re-
hearsal. a feature planned for the
especial benefit of the school chil-
dren and other young students of
music. Tn this way it is sought to
spread a knowledge of the best in
music among the rising generation
tn aid in insuring the future of the
city musically.
The next concert will be given at
Beethoven hall Thursday. January
20. with the public rehearsal in the
afternoon.

CORPUS CHRISTI. Tex.. Jan. 7.—
W. J Doyle left today for Browns-
ville. where he will confer with A.
P. Blockson colonel commanding at
Fort Brown for the purpose of in-
ducing him to permit the machine
gun squad to come here during the
progress of the Gulf Coast Annual

is permitted to come they will bring

AS WE GROW OLDER
our minds are quite as active as in
former years but our strength does not
respond when we need it most; per-
haps the kidneys are weak the liver
torpid rheumatic pains or stiffened
joints beset us and we cannot easily
throw off the colds that winter brings.
What we need is the cod liver oil in
Scott’s Emulsion to renew the blood
and strengthen every organ of the
body while its glycerine soothes
the respiratory tract and its hypo-
phosphites strengthen the nerves.
Scott's Emulsion is a scientific oil-
food of unusual benefit to those past
fifty years —particularly during the
colder seasons it imparts warmth and
creates strength. Oue bottle w ill prove
its worth. No alcohol or harmful drugs.
