 LOST ON THE DESERT-I.ast Sat urday Mr. H. Harrison and Mr. Jonn J. Kolberg with driver and cook druV e to the Arizona dam. returning Sunday On their way home the driver chancef tu remark that old Comeback loomed up in great shape. Messrs. Harrison and Kolberg did not think that the driver was pointing to the old Camel back at all. and when the road bore off in that direction they ordered him to change his course and head for the Superstition mountains.

Di- rector Rosenbecker has his orchestra under perfect control and il was won derful to note how easily he could bring out the more delicate effects Of light and shade and change to the bril- liant fortissimo passages in the dili- cult classical numbers rendered. The vocal soloists. Mime. Eagna Lime and Mrs. Edward T. Towne. sang several selections showing the highest state of cultivated voices. and in the celebrated duette from Romeo and Juliet by Gounod. which is one of the most beau tiful and difficult duettes written. scored an immense hit with the audi ence. Mir. Jan Van Oordt completely captivated everyone with his masterful playing of the first movement of Wien iawski's great concerto. The cello solo which was given by special request hy Herr Wagner was much appreciated. Altogether the concert was one never To be forgotten and should the Chicago symphony orchestra ever return to Phoenix they may be assured that q house crowded to the doors will greet them.
