THINGS THEATRICAL
What Some of the Stage Lights Are
 Doing in the East.

Edward J. Connolly. who was in "The Belle of New York company in Lon don, England. and America. has been engaged by Klaw X Enlarger for the "Huckleberry Finn" company.
 Kathryn Kidder's tour, under the management of Jules Murry, begins at Syracuse, N. Y, in December. The new play in which Miss Kidder will ap- pear has been named An Eye for an Eye" It is an adaptation from the French of AleXandre Dumas. Fills. and it is expected that in it Miss Kidder will more than duplicate her biggest success, Madame Sans-Gene."
 Blanche Walsh has begun her starr ing tour, under Wagenhan &, Kemper's management, in Stanislaus Stange's The Daughter of Hamilcar." The first big city she reaches is Chicago. This play is based upon the famous character and story of Salambo. Miss Walsh has a role that is intensely emo tional. Scarcely less effective than her own part is that assumed by Charles Dalton, her leading man, who starred for SO many years in ''The Sign of the Cross"
 Stuart Robson is finding ample proof
 
 sic plays, for in his present tour in his elaborate revival of The Comedy of Errors" he is playing to a phenomenal business. In fact, Mir. Robson has dis covered in "The Comedy a drawing card of even greater power than his old time success, 'The Henrietta" which however. he is presenting from time to time in cities where it has not been seen in some years. As this is the first Of the big Shakesperian productions to be taken on the road this year ade- quately presented. it is pleasant news to the lovers of classic comedy to find the public once more than ready to wei come it..

DAN PARSE, ORGAN GRINDER
A Blind Man With a Memory aud a
 Karpy pisDosition.

Dan Parse. the blind organ grinder came to town yesterday after a long a bseEce. There is a card hung on the front of his instrument of torture stat ing that he lost his eyesight by pre- mature blast. These placards generally convey little accurate information, but in the case of Dan Parse the statement is true. as many Arizonians know. X premature blast in Q mine at Turkey Creek in Yavapai county destroyed his cyesight. That happened in the early eighties. He determined at once that te would not become a burden upon the community and nothing offered him an opportunity of making Q living ex- coDt the hand organ.
 One c-nnot live upon a hand organ in riagle community; in fact, he can not ctly ia one very long and neither can the performer on a hand organ afford to pay railroad fare in moving about. Dan Parse had to have passes and he wanted to travel all over the United States so that he would not bear down on 2. single reighborhood. He decided that he had better go to headquarters and get his passes. He accordingly went to New York. He tackled the he'd of the Vanderbilt sys- fem first, because he thought it was the hardest. He was successful not only there but in all quarters, so that when he left New York he had passes over every important line in the country. and he has them yet.
 He has Q Tcmsrka ble memory for voices, just 2s some prodigies have for faces. It is said that he never forgets a voice that he has once heard and Identified with its owner. Last summer he was at Santa Monica, where Ber Butler saw him. Said he. Hello. Dan.' Hello, Ben" was the instant reply, I'm glad to see you looking well" He is a great wit and a wonderful josher. If he has any regret for his lost vision he does not show it in a morbid CT scr- rowfuI disposition.

CIRCUS MANS STORY.

Thrifty, always said the old circus man, was the old man, and he used to wait always till fall till the show was in off the road, before giving the houses and buildings at our winter quarters their annual painting up.
 Before we got the giant we used to have all this work done by performing Arabs They'd stand on each ither's shoulders like they used to in the show, three men high, and do the side of an ordinary house without any trouble whatever.
 After we got the giant the paintin' work was easier still, though at first his comin' in made some hard feelin's with the Arabs. They'd come to sort = like this paintin' job, it was kind Q fun to them, singing the paint around. and they resented the giants coming but. Of course. the old man was boss, and he says the giant paints, and so the giant did paint; and, say, he cer- tainly could paint house in less time and with less trouble than any man you ever see.
 "Of course, he didn't use no ordinary paint pot. He used to use for his paint pot a big iron kettle, and, of course, his brush was about three times as big as the biggest brush that an ordinary painter would use. And to see him paint was a sight to see.
 You see, he had a natural, free-arm sweep. standin' up straight, of about fifteen feet. and if he bent his body over little to one side or the other he could reach twenty feet or more: and if he shifted his brush from one hand to the otter, as he sometimes did, why, he could reach further still.
 He'd run the brush along the top edge of the house, under the caves trough, 10 make a smooth finish line

TO THE fOOR HOUSE
The Fate to Which a1 Old Horse
 Has CCme.

The pathetic incident of a horse being sent to the poorhouse for live stock will shortly he witnessed in this com muaity. More than ten days ago the horse came to the residence of MT. Hatcher. living we-t of the city. and qucrtercd itself upon him. Mr Hatcher took the horse q couple e. mites east on the Tempe read and turned him loose. Before he got home the animal was there again. He was put on pasture and just ten days later a Mexican ap- pcared and claimed him. He wanted Co know what the expenses had amounted to. MT. Hatcher said that if he were going to make a regular charge he could not consistently charge less than 9 cents a day. That would be S2.50. But as he was not in the busi- ness of taking care of stray horses ha would make a nominal charge of $1 for the horses board.
 The Mexican looked at the horse and shrugged his shoulders. He told MT. Hatcher that he might keep the animal for part pay. It is Mir. Hatcher's opin- ion that the Mexican is not a bad judge of horse flesh. He will give a dollar to any man who will take the animal away. He would have let the Mcsican have him for nothing, but the charge he made was exemplary and in tended to prevent the horse from both ering him any more.
 He was advised that his only relief lay in the poundnaster. the constable of this precinct who was so unfortun- ate as to receive the greatest number of votes at the election two years ago. The poundmaster will have to take the horse to the pound. and from there ba will have legal access to the boneyard.

there to start with, and then he'd bring his brush down and sweep it along a strip Of house a foot and a half wide clean out to the corner boards; and, then he'd turn the brush over and slap it down with sound that was like the slappin of 9 whales tail on the face of the ocean, and draw it back with swish that sounded like blowin off steam.
 And he liked to plint-I dunno, I think we all like to paint-a little; and the way he used to swale that brush around was certainly somthin' amazin' to see. Why, he'd have the whole up- per part of the side of a forty-foot house painted fore you knew it.
 And the Arabs themselves, as mat in the way of house paintin' on the middle level. One man standin' on the ground would hold up two, one on eacn shoulder, and these two men would paint. one right-handed and the other left-handed, at the same time, and so reach quite a space. And with two Arabs on the ground, each holding up two men, we could bring four painters to bear on the middle stretch, and they could work at the same time the giant did, because he had to stand so far away from the building, anyway, that they wasn't in his way al all.

Our Chauncy Babies of Europe.
(By the Associated Press.)

New York, Aug. Ex-senator Chaun-
cey M. Depew was passenger on the
American Line Steamship Philadelphia,
which arrived here today. On Euro
pean affairs he said:
1.-THE most noticeable change in Europe
since my visit last year is the disappear
ance of the American terror. Then there
was panic of industrial fears of Ameri-
can invasion. That fear has disappeared
1t was too hysterical to last. The for
eign mind is now not so much how to
keep the products of American mills,
factories and furnaces out, as to copy
American methods and then with their
cheaper labor they hope to hold their
markets at home and abroad. But their
study of our industrial development and
success, which is very careful and ex-
haustive. has produced a Widespread
desire to combine with US.
1.-THE negotiations with the Vatican on
the question of the Friars and their lands
in the Philippines have done more in
few weeks to educate Europe about our
position in the war with Spain and our
possession and government of the archi-
pelago than all the diplomacy and liter
ature since the beginning of the con-
test. There is general concurrence in the
opinion that the action of the American
Government is necessary for peace and
order in the islands, and eminently just
and fail"
