THE TOWN WILL GROW.
What MT. Seibert Thinks of the Pros
 poets of Phoenix

One of the guests of the Ford hotel is R. s. Seibert, Los Angeles busi- ness man. This is Mr. Seibert's first visit to Phoenix, and he is exceedingly well impressed with the city and sur roundings.
 "The Salt River valley is a wonder fully rich agricultural country" said he, and being situated so advan- tageously there is no reason in the world why Phoenix should not grow to city of good proportions. No

 as the San Diego, Phoenix & Globe railway project.
 Travel is not very brisk just now D said General Agent Gillette of the s. F., P. & F. yesterday. Tt never is just before the holidays, but there is always a reactionary movement afterward. The winter climate seekers will come in faster after Christmas. More of them are coming each year. The charm and healthfulness of our winter
 weather leaves a lasting impression on visitors and they tell their friends of the east about it. In this way Phoenix
 receives good advertising. The peo- 1 pie of other sections are beginning to learn where to come for health and paying investments"

FAUST AND MARGUERITE.
This Famous Piece to be Played here
on Jan. 25th, by Morrison's
Company.

The above company win be seen
in here on the 25th in the specta-
culor production of Faust" This
will be version, of Goethe's work
and is written by Mr. Boyle Ber-
nard of London.
1t is said that Bernard's Faust
is similar to Sir Henry Twins, but
is not copy by any means,
The synopsis of the play is given
and runs thusly;
Marguerite is imprisoned, char
ged with the murder of her mother,
and not with the killing of her
child and indeed the fact that she
ever had child is ignored. This is,
no doubt, done purposely, aud the
reason for its omission are both
excellent and commendable. The
piece is staged well and the pictures
are effective. Electricity is. used
with good effect in several scenes,
the duel with is flashes of electric
light is a startling incident. The
apotheosis is also interesting making
a fitting close to the weld and
singular performance. The scene
on the the sumit of the Brocken Is
thrilling and impressive, as was the
case in the Irving production. It
holds the attention of the audience
and its close made brilliant by a
dazzling display of fireworks is quite
a novelty. A great may super
numeraries are used and they are
handled so skilltully that they add
to the naturalness and effectiveness
of the pictures. The calcium lights
are also cleverly placed aud utilized
to the best advantage. Great care
has been used in selecting the COM
pany, each member of which is
peculiarly adapted to the parts for
which they are cast, thus assuring
harmonious whole.

HE WANTED A "DIVvY. "

On Friday night, the Texas
calaboose had two distinguished
visitors. They were guests of the
City Marshal, and, we're given the
same cell, ground floor. They we're
put in the hold-over for drinking too
much "boot-leg" whiskey. They
got on very well together until the
shades of night crept on, and one of
them appropriated the only bunk
and all of the blankets to be had.
The other one got tired resting his
head on the concrete floor for a
pillow, and asked for a "divvy" and
was refused. He told his fellowman
he would roast him if he did not
divide, but this had no effect on the
man who was covered up in bed.
When he awoke again he found the
Jail full of smoke and the man
striking matches and putting them
to the blankets. He jumped out OF
bed and caught the man by the
throat, and soon had him choked
down. He gave the alarm and soon
a half dozen officers and others
went in and drug the man out, who
had been choked down. They put
water on him and revived him.
When he opened his eyes he said
"I want you all to understand that
I am a Kentucky Gentleman" and
and with this he began to throw
his arms about and make quite a
show of resistance, but he was put
back in another cage. There were
some tea or dozen blankets burnt
