By Associated Press. •
El Paso, Tex., Dec: 30.-—American
money is at a discount in Mexico be-
cause of the advance price of silver, a
financier just out of Mexico said to-
day, adding that the Mexicans are
hoarding their own silver dollar pieces
for the same reason and using the
fractional Currency of comparatively
lower value.
The financier explained that the
Mexican gold dollar of half the weight
and value ©f the American gold dollar,
is now exceeded in value by the Mexi-
can silver dollar, which is quoted by
the brokers in the Mexican capital at
about 60 cents American gold. Lately
Carranza issued a decree arbitrarily
placing the gold and silver dollar on
a par. This has sympathetically raised
the exchange value of the gold dollars
as the gold is put by fiat on a silver ‘
basis.
Mexican fractional money is deficient
in weight, particularly the half dol-
lar. As Mexicans have a tendency to
hoard the more valuable coins they
have made the half dollar the popular
coin in trade.
Similarly, the new copper five-cent
piece, being- of base metal, has driven
small silver coins into the back-
sround.
Carranza’s “uncounterfeitable” paper,
no longer enforced by decree, has dis-
appeared in Mexico, according to the
same authority. He also says the vol-
ume of money in circulation in the
country is/still far below the require-
ment's of trade and has seriously han-
dicapped business.

“It Pays to Advertise” really needs
no boosting, for it advertises itself,
being one of the brightest, most en-
joyable plays produced in many sea-
sons. It is not a “high-brow” play. It
is gust a sweet, clean comedy of the
farce variety that everyone can under-
stand and appreciate. Wittily written
and excellently acted, with enough ro-
mance to make it attractive to the
sentimental loving portion of an aud-

ested in a lover—especially if we can

London Spectator Outlines Entente
Program as Peace Basis,
By Associated Press.
London, Dec. 30.—The Spectator de-
votes the greater part of tomorrow’s
issue1 to answering President Wilson’s
question as to what are the peace
terms of the entente allies? Briefly
summarized, the principal demands as
outlined by the Spectator follow:
“The peace terms are to start from
the status quo before the war, thus
including the evacuation of the whole
of Northern France, Belgium and Lux-
emburg, and of all lands taken from
Serbia, Rumania, Russia and Montene-
gro.
“Alsace-Lorraine is to be restored to

sub-kingdom of Poland, which the czar
Mrs. Mary Hunt Afleck of Brenham,
who was yesterday elected an hon-
.04 orary member of the association, made
an earnest and eloquent appeal for
cleaner newspapers, and closed her re-
marks by reciting a bit of her own
Kindly humor, good fellowship and
a spirit of genuine comaradrie were the
controlling- forces which guided the
destinies of a dinner party given at
Rogers’ place last night to the Texas
Editorial association by the Galveston
News and the Galveston Tribune. The
affair was arranged as the final offi-
cial function incident to the annual
meeting of the veteran editors of
Texas.
Tom Finty, Jr., of Dallas, served 'as
toastmaster and he did it with con-
siderable eclat. He explained that he
was selected for this post because he
was the only one present who had
ever worked for bo|h publications
which were playing the host and that
as the evening moved along he would
do his duty as he saw it. He did. He
set the limit of each talk at 500 words
and enforced it with more or less
rigidity.
Col. Frank P. Holland of Dallas, the
father of the editorial association,
was the first to be called upon for a
speech, and despite his declaration
that he was too full—of apprecation—
to do much talking he did give voice
to some very pretty sentiment and
was given a big round of applause. He
bragged on the newspaper men a bit,
which probably had something to do
with the amount of applause.
George W. Bailey, paragrapher,
column conductor or columniator of
the Houston Post, was permitted to
“reminisce” for more than his 500-
word allotment. He was doing the job
so well and so entertainingly that the
toastmaster didn’t have the heart to
interrupt, although he too, still had a
load on his chest. Bailey told of his
early adventures as a newspaper man
—the adventures being efforts to make
advance connection with his weekly
stipend. He paid a tribute to the
newspaper business office that brought
vociferous and prolonged applause
from editors, old and young. He
couldn’t have told his story in fewer
words than he used and if he had
used more the company would have
sone into "convulsiones risibilitas."
EFFORT FAILS.
The toastmaster then tried to get
an expert opinion as to one of the
courses of the dinner from Vaughn G.
Thomas of the state game, fish and
oyster commission, but he tried in
vain. Mr. Thomas proved more than
apt at “passing the buck” and talked
entertainingly about something be-
sides the subject assigned.
The toastmaster tried it again and
endeavored to compel A. L. Perkins,
introduced as the personal representa-
tive of C. H. McMaster, to furnish the
desired information. “Advice to coun-
sel” was the basis for Mr. Perkins’ re-
fusal to carry out instructions. He did,
however, give a few words of appre-
ciation to the editors for their presence
and expressed the pleasure of the local
press at being able to have .-them for
their guests.
By this time the toastmaster con-
cluded that John F. Lubben had cooled
off sufficiently from the effects of
George Bailey’s remarks about the
business office to be able to make a
speech. He had arrived at the right
conclusion. Mr. Lubben was in splen-
did humor and took occasion to thank
the editors for being present for the
dinner.
Hamp Cook, secretary of the associa-
ion,. 'and Col. Charles L. Martin,
president, indulged in a story-telling
contest at each other's expense that
convulsed the audience.

“The House of Glass.”
An advance notice says:
A thrilling play of great interest is
“The House of Glass,” by a young
writer named Max Marcin, which will
be presented by Cohan and Harris at
the Grand opera house two days, be-
ginning -Tuesday, Jan. 2, with Wednes-
•day matinee. The heroine, who is the
dominating figure in the play, meets a
thief who has represented himself to
her as heir to a large fortune. The
thief is arrested as the two are about
to start for the West to be married;
the girl refuses to testify in her own
behalf at th tril that her disgrace
may not become known, and both are
condemned to imprisonment for three
years. The woman serves her time
and is released- on a parole.
She breaks her parole, leaves New

er. Precipitation, during the last 24
hours, was reported from the south-

and California, elsewhere the weather

opera house musicians. “The Garden
of the World,” an allegory of dra-
matic power, based upon military fact,
is declared to be the most ambitious,
act ever offered by the Interstate
Amusement company. It is staged in
superb splendor and with a lavish ex-
travagance that make it ons of the
mightiest spectacles yet procAiced upon
the American stage. In "he Garden"
of the World,” the vampire, War,
strives to tear Civilization from the
arms of Peace and cast the nations
of the Old World into- strife.
Comedy that sizzles and sparkles
predominates in the other acts on this
bill. The celebrated funster, Wilfred

C. Gardner Sullivan, the author of
many of the Ince Triangle plays and
the most prolific scenario writer in
the business, says that his new play,
“Three of Many,” showing at the-Queen
today for the last time, is"a war play
that is not a war play.” There are no
scenes of war and battle, but the story
concerns three people of the countries
now in conflict, just, a chapter from
life back of the roaring cannons. The
early scenes of the story take place in
a New York boarding house where
Nina Antinni, of Italian birth, Emil
Vorstman, an Austrian, and Paul Car-
doza, also an Italian, are friends in
the truest sense of the word. Both
are suitors for the hand of the girl
Nina, but there is no animosity be-
tween the two pals. When the great
war breaks out, both loyal to their
countries, go home to become enemies,
and Nina, also loyal, goes to Italy
where she is a nurse. -How the three '
meet under unusual and dramatic cir-
cumstances, and how the sweet com-
panionship of the three in the United
States is recalled in a vivid manner,
is the subject of the interesting story
which follows. Clara Williams, George
Fisher, and Charles Gunn are the three
main characters, the only ones .of prom-
inence enough to mention in the cast,
and they handle the story with a del-
icateness and strength that, makes a
pleasure to view.

York for the West, and there marries'
the man who has employed her as his
stenographer. He is a power in the
railroad world, and is called to New
York to occupy an important post
there. His wife goes with him. He.is
a strict disciplinarian, especially noted
for his firmness against all who have
no right to be allowed to' return to
society. He is determined to prose-
cute a boy who has been stealing
money from the road. The detective
who is at work on the case recognizes
in his wife the convict who has brok-
en her parole. Her conduct betrays
to her husband what has happened.
The governor of the state has inter-
vened on the boy’s behalf and been re-
fer “Bits of Our Hits,” the same being
a hodgepodge of mirth and melody
that is declared to be irresistible.
