 ] MRS COOLEY'S RECITAL.-There was not nearly so good an audience at
 the recital given by Mrs Mae French
 Cooley at the Doris theater last night as that most excellent entertainment
 merited. great many other things
 were going on in Phoenix, and a not very large population was badly di- vided, but those who were fortunate enough to hear the recital pronounce it to have at least equaled any similar entertainment ever given in this city On the occasion of several attractions
 on the same night there are always
 many who try to go to all and spend
 only little time at each Those who went to the recital first did not go anywhere else But remained until the last number of the programme had been rendered. Every number was a good one. Mrs. Cooley, though suffer- ing from a bad cold. proved herself to
 be most accomplished elocutionist
 and was equally attractive in the pa thetic and the humorous. She probably
 appeared best in The Chariot Race. :" She was ably assisted by Mrs D'Aalta

 The checks were put into local banks and forwarded to Mesa for collection There was another check, evidently emanating from the same source. That was disposed of at Ezra w. Thayer's and d six-shcoier was taken in part pavement. That transaction has not yet been officially reported to the sher ins office.
 All the victims of these operations had previously cashed forged checks ir the not far distant past. one of them, speaking of the matter yesterday. said that they would probab bly be taken ia d great many more times before they retired from business. His only wonder was that considering the great number O. small checks they have to cash. they are not taken in more frequently. Hun dreds are presented every week. signed by well known cattlemcn and rauchers who have an exceedingly loose way of doing business. It is impossible to de- terminc the senuineness of the sigma lures for. sometimes the name of one man will be-signed in half a dozen diff ferent ways.
