READY TO REPORT
Return Of Committees Investigating Various Territorial institutions.

The members of the legislative com mittees, appointed to visit and inves- tigate the five territorial institutions, all returned to Phoenix yester-
 day afternoon, with the exception Of the party which went to Yuma, to see the penitentiary. This committee is expected back in time for the roll call Monday afternoon at o'clock
 The Yuma, Tucson and Flagstaff committees left the capitol Wednesday night, the two appointed to examine into the affairs of the Normal school and insane hospital, remaining here. The university committee, after a days visit at Tucson, report in a gen eral way that it is "a1l right The rarty that went to Flagstaff to see the unfinished reform school building, re- port it 'all right as far as it is built It is yet to receive it's foo s, parti- tions ard interior finish. The com mittee found the citizens of Flagstaff in accord with Governor Murphy's view that the building should be used as an educational institution, and not as reformatory for bad boys
 The gentlemen who drove over to the normal school at Tempe, report that the 1EU or more emDIyOn1c ScnOO1 ma ans there are all charming The committee visiting the insane hospital found things material in bad shape. The main buildings need repairs, that if thoroughly done would amount all most to rebuilding the interiors The sanitary conditions are bad and re-
 quire remodeling. The furniture and equipment of the wards is poor and scanty. The institution is over-croWd
 ed, there being about 1S0 inmates, oc- Cupying quarters designed to accom- IT. odate about half that number. The present population would have nOl mcre room than is required if the en-1 tire building was equipped with wards, and the ground floors or basements of the two main wings are unfinished As the established ratio of insane isI 1 to 750 persons, the population of the Arizona hospital seems exceedingly large At this ratio the territory sl population of 100000 warrants not above 133 inmates of the insane hos pital. A view of the inmates as a mass leaves the impression of a poor house, or infirmary, rather than anl insane hospital, and so mild is the gen-E eral form of demeanor that the gov-l ernn ent of the institution takes on a military aspect.

Since it's removal. the club has taken on new life. There has already been an increase of mem bership and a prospect of a much 1srg r one.
 The club now occupies two rooms; a gymnasium 50x60 fe2t, the ether Q lCuneing and reading room, 18x24. It is supplied with the leading daily papers and Eeriodi- calls The g7mnss um is equipped with horizontal and parallel bars. a double set of rings, chest weights. mats and gloves There is also a large punching bag and a small ceiling bag and whatever else appertairs to an e7 cellent gymnasium.

THE MAMMOTH MINE.
That Famous Pinal County Property
 Again in Operation.

After lying idle for several years the Mammoth mine, one of the most fa- nous in Arizona, is again in operation by the Mammoth Collins Gold Mining company. George P. Blair, the manag- e. of the company, was in Tucson and to reporter for the Star said:
 The works are now reducing 150 tons of ere daily, and in the mining and reduction of which the company car ries about seventy-fve men on it's pay rolls. The Star is pleased to inform it's readers that the company has conclud- ed the determination to add very inn pOrtant improvements to it by d0ub- ling its stamps, making them 100. The cyanide works are also an important part Of the large plant which is giving g very satisfactory results.
 The striking improvement to be made is that of utilizing the Aravaipa river for generating electric power for the entire works of the mills, cyanide plant and h3ists This will be done by harnessing the water at point if teen miles from the location Of the works The water which at it's lowest supply. exceeds 2,000 miners inches will ta diverted from it's channel at point two miles from the power plant It will be conducted by pipe Or canal. whichever is the more practical. At the point Of use there will be a fall of 200 feet, the most magnificent ant nat ural water power for the cost to be found in the Rocky mountain region, which will supply p0Wsr sufficient not only for the needs of the company but scores of mines in that region which may require the power. The cost of controlling the water, building and fully equipping the plant, conveying the power and connecting it with the works at the mines will not exceed STE, 900. This taken in connection with the fact that the annual cost of the fuel consumption is $50,000 speaks for itself, as the producing capacity of the reduction of ore can be doubled at from one-third to one-haf the present cost.
 ..The work on the new plant will be- gin within the next fifty days. The plant will be ordered as soon as plans and specifications can b5 prepared and the entire business will De completed within six months. The importance of this improvement is the introduction of electric power for mining purposes as well as for treating ores, especially when power can be generated at so small cost as compared with the fuel and steam proposition is of the most vital interest to the Mammoth Mining region and means much for Tucson
 Manager Blair expressed himself as agreeably disappointed at the wonder ful mineral resources Of Arizona He has no hesitation in saying that he be- 1ieves 1t to be the richest mining region

A THEpSIAN AFFAIR
Alleged Robbery of inc Mesa Dram
 afiC Society.

John Corder and Clarence Jackson,
 mem bers of a colored theatrical com Einaticn, were arrested and brought into Justice Johstone's court yesterday on a charge of stealing lot of tickets, a makeup box, some te1escopic va lises and a. couple of dramas. all the pr perty of the Mesa Mutual Improve ment Association and Dramatic club, at which the defendants had given an entertainment The defendants are not accused of purloining the name and title of the association, which was probably tCo long for conceaIment and too bulky to be carried back to Phoenix on the M, P. & s. R. " R. R.. except as excess baggage, the payment for which was hardly justified by the proceeds.
 The two. dramas a1leg to be stolen were: ''The Noble Outcast., and "Camad; CT the Hand of a Friend, ," which is otherwise designated as Hot Number No. 1.''
 The defendants deny the charges. They admit that thev took the tickets but said they needed them because they had run out of tickets of their own. The two dramas were undoubtedly car lieu away ny d COupIc OL IIG WOHIcI members Of the troupe. who were read ing them between acts and became so interested in the fortunes of the per sonages in the cast and the artistic genius of the playwrights, that they forgot to leave them behind. They deny that they took any other property and a careful search of their lodgings failed to disclose either the makeup box or the telescope valises. The de- fense will endeavor to show that these things might have been stolen a month or more ago; that they were kept in a trunk exposed to the cupid ity of any traveling theatrical aggre- gatiOn, of which several have lately played at Mesa under the auspices of the Mesa Mutual Improvement Assoc iation and Dramatic Society. The affair will be fully sifted by Jus ice Johnstone tomorrow

TODAY'S BALL GAME
Last of the Series Between the TcilbYs
 and the Home Team.

The result of the last ball game be- tween the DeMund and Trilby teams has caused both hines to redouble their efforts for the contest which will be held at the park today. The Trilbys have shown their abilities for playing 9 tricky game, while Phoenix plays it's same steady ball and the team work is seldom at fault. Both sides thorough ly realize that the greatest number of hits for either team will practically da- eide the game and consequently the most skillful batters have been shown the preference in the selection of men,
 The members Of the Trilby team will give cake walk in O'Neill hall Jan uary 31, after which it is their inten- lion to return to California, making the game today the last of the series with the home team, Following is the fN,. r J,o

It is discipline unique to pr. Miller's hospital. and is probably net attempt ed anywhere else in the world. That such discipline is possible, evidence } that Dr. Miller is a most skillful hand ler of crazy folks, or that insanity in Arizona is as mild as a Phoenix winter.
 What the gentlemen who went to Yuma found at the penitentiary, it is not possible to anticipate, but it is ex- pected that they will make a supple mental report on the social condition of Los Angeles.

She had been but week in her new
school when she disappeared. and after
eighteen days, In which half the detective
force Of the. French capital was seeking
her, she was discovered in the garret OF a
student in the Quarter Latin.
She was taken back to her seminary.
When her mother reached home after the

astounded at being greeted upon getting
out of her carriage by Clara herself. The
