Rubenstein for some time before the shooting had been carrying the mail between Phoenix and Scottsdale. As the direct representative of the government, he believed that he had the right of way over all public roads, and there were frequent instances of collisions between him and unofficial persons whom he met. On one occa- sion he held up man at the point of a gun and made him leave the road a distance of 100 feet. Nye and the h. dian were hauling a load of hay along the road, which at the place where they met Rubenstein, was partially obStructed by a mudhole. It does not appear that there was any quarrel or warning of any kind. Both men were killed instantly. Phoenix Republi- nl n

NATIONAL IRRIGATION.
The President May Refer to Arid landa in
 His Message.

ms WcSSdge.
 A Washington special to the Globe Democrat says:
 "A visit to the White House today by Mir. Elwood Mead, who talked with the president for some time on irriga. tion matters, has led to the belief that the president will embody something in his message relative to gen. eral plan for irrigation in the south. west. It is known that Secretary Hitchcock, of the interior department, has given thought to this subject, and that a portion of his report referring to irrigation has been completed for some time and is at the disposal of the president.
 MT. Mead is the irrigation expert of the government and found in the president an interested auditor. He explained the different plans that have been investigated by him in the irriga. tion line and gave the president some of the conclusions he has reached. Mir. Roosevelt is familiar with nearly all of the arid and semiarid land states, having spent considerable time in them. He has manifested much inter est in the irrigation agitation and l.as given intimations to western members that plan of general scope would meet his approval"

Frank $ Pixley. Chicago newspaper
man. and author Of The Burgomaster, %
lately seen at this theatre. The Carpet
bagger" and Mr. Murphy were seen in
Washington during the early part Of its
career and those who saw 1t at that time
stamped IL with their approval That
their judgment was correct Is proven by
the fact that the play and Mr.. Murphy
have enjoyed great prosperity.
Last spring The Carpotbagger' was
taken to New York for a run, where if
was received 10y both the critics and the
public with great favor, Mr.. Murphy re

critics some OF the most lattering notices
ever written about an American actor.
To those who went through the stirring
days that followed ia the struggle between
the North and South. The Carpetbagger'
IS an historical parsonage, and one of
the most interesting that this country
has ever produced. The play. The Car
