A vIOLINIST RETURNS.

The literary and musical people of Phoenix were thrown into a state of expectancy about three weeks ago by a runor that Mir. Cassie C. Grammar, the well known violinist, who so de- lighted Phoenicians with his masterly playing at various concerts and servi- ces last winter, was expected to re- turn from Salt Lake City. where he went to fill engagement with the orchestra of the Grand Theater of that city last summer. The rumor has finally materialized and Prof. Bran nan will probably land fin Phoenix in a day or two. much to the delight of his pupils. who have been waiting for his return for some time.
 Phoenix being community of cult ur0d people. both in literature and music. as was clearly shown by the en- thusiastic crowds who greeted Leopold Godowsky. Leonora Jackson, ct cetera., last winter. takes special pride in hay ing as its citizens such thorough mu- sicians as Mir. Grammar, and will well come him back with open arms.

IMPENDING coTroNwooDs.

To the Editor of The Republican-Sir: l wish to call attention to the fact that the Tempe road for much of the way for the first mile east of Seventh street is u very dangerous thoroughfare on account of the large number of dead cottonwood trees which overhang the road. There are at this time several loose limbs among the overhanginS branches of sufficient size and weight to cause the death of any unfortunate victim that might be in the way in case they become dislodged.
 The proper authorities should see to it at once that these. trees are removed as the next heavy wind may cause serious damage.

Our reporter noticed that a carload of vehicles had been shipped in here and were being peddled out to the ranchers. We inquired of our dealers if this could be done as cheaply as they could sell the same class of va- hicles and were assured that 1t could not, and if any rancher would stop to figure q little he would see that he Is paying from 2o to 30 per cent more for these vehicles than he would have to pay to the focal dealer for the same vehicle.

A MENTAL WRECK.

AS they re-entered the larger room
they were astonished to come upon
Miss Page standing in the doorway.
She was gazing at the recumbent figure
of the dead woman. and for a moment
seemed unconscious of their presence.
How did you get in? Which of my

asked the constable. who was of an
irritable and suspicious nature.
She let the hood drop from her head
and, turning. surveyed him with slow
smile. There was witchery in that
smile sufficient to affect a much more
cultivated and callous nature than his,
and though he had been proof against

effect of its repetition.

Miss Page eourtesied. looking so be-
witching in the fresh morning light
that the tough old constable scratched
his chin in grudging admiration. But
he did not reconsider his determination.
Seeing this. she. accepted her defeat
gracefully and moved aside to where
the bushes offered her more or less pro-
lection from the curiosity of those
about her. Meanwhile Mr.. Sutherland
had stepped into the house.
He found himself in a small hall
with staircase in front and an open
door at the left On the threshold of
this open door man stood. who at
sight of him dotted his hat. Passing
by this man. Mr.. Sutherland entered
the room beyond. A table spread with
eatables met his view, beside which, in
an attitude which struck him at the

y Mr.. Sutherland, with a start, again
bent down. The arm of his old friend
lay crooked upon the table, and on Its
blue cotton sleeve there was smear
which might have been wine but which

''But Mrs. Webb?"
'sCome in and see.''
There was board fence about the
simple yard within which stood the
humble house forever after to be point
ed out as the scene Of Sutherland
towns most heartrending tragedy. In
this fence was gate, and through this
gate now passed Mr.. Sutherland and
his would be companion, Miss Page.
A path bordered by lilac bushes led the
way to the house, the door of which
stood wide open. AS soon as Mr..
sutherland entered upon this path a
man appeared from the house and
came directly toward him. 1t was
Amos Fenton, the constable.

Sutherlandtown was seaport The
village, which was a small one, con-
sisted of one long street running par
allel with the coast and numerous
cross streets running down from the
hillside and ending on the wharfs.
On one of the corners thus made stood
the Webb house. with it's front door
on the main street and it's side door
on one Of the hillside lanes. AS the
group of men and boys who had been
in search of Mr.. Sutherland entered
this last mentioned lane they could
pick out this house from all the Others,
as it was the only one in which light
was still burning. Mr.. Sutherland lost
no time in, entering upon the scene of
the tragedy. AS his imposing figure
emerged from the darkness and paused
on the outskirts of the crowd blocking
up every entrance to the house..a MUIR

way was made for him to the from,

her determination may have had its
influence in silencing him. He joined
the crowd, and together they moved
down hill. This was too much for the
servants Of the house. One by one
they, too, left the house till itsstood alb
soiutely empty. Jerry snuffed out the
candles and shut the front door, but
j the side entrance stood wide open, and
into this entrance, as the last footstep
died out on the hillside, passed a slight
and resolute figure. 1t was that of the
Fmusician who had questioned Miss
Pages attractions.
