can drama which will one day dcvelope into a
most imposing situation.
"Arizona," the name implies, is play
which has its scenes, characters and incidents
located in the picturesque far West. The peo.
pie OF the play comprise sturdy ranclmen and
cowboys, the brisk, alert women of the pioneer
generation, and their dainty graceful, yet
strong and scf-reliant daughtcrs-ypes of the
American girl over which the whole world has
come to admire and wonder-oficers and sol
diers, fair samples of the Heterogeneous conmm-
nifty, which Mr.. Thomas has chosen TO utilize in
the way Of literary material
That "Arizona' will be richly staged and
eXccllently well acted is guaranteed by the
names of the artists who painted the scenes
from actual sketches in the territory OF Arizona
and the names of the clever actors whom Mr..
Thomas has chosen for the principal roles of
the plGy.
