"WEARY WILLIE WALKER"
Is to Tell His Troubles at the Grand,
Beginning Tomorrow.

bcglNTif'D 'oT'oi'oW'
1t is claimed by managers, and doubt
less with good grounds, that farce-comedy
was never more popular as class of en-
tcrtainment than il is today; this may be
true. and yet there is noticeable change
in public taste in regard to farce-comedy
(Which has for years been much abused
term and grossly misapplied to all sorts
OF rough entertainments) Horse play
with copious interpretations of poor variety
acts is now relegated to the cheaper class
of farcc-comedy il not, it does not re-
ceive favor with the better class OF play
goers.
To this list OF up-to-date comedy
farces has recently been added one which,
from all accounts in our exchanges, is
destined to make a strong bid for popu-
lar favor. Its title, Weary Willie Wal
ker," is a good one and one suggestive OF
all kinds OF good humor
This attraction. with a large company,
said TO be frst-class in every particular,
headed by the well-known and popular
young actor, Rube Welch, with Miss
Kitty Francis, will be at the Grand opera
house for three nights, commencing with
q matinee tomorrow.

KATE CLAYTON

Orphans" Tuesday.

viii Open at the Broadway IN The TWO
Orphans" Tuesday.
Miss Kate Claxton, in "The Two Or
phans,' is a strong attraction at the
Broadway February "a and rs. For
number of years the name Kate Claxton
has been Synonymous with that famous
emotional drama, "The Two Orphans"
which was the master work OF D'Ennery,
the French dramatst. 1t has held
prominent place on the dramatic stage
for upwards OF 20 years, with Miss Clax-
ton as the ideal exponent of the blind
girl, a part she has played over 5000
times 1t is announced that this is Miss
Claxton's final tour in this standard play.
She has made for this season a big re-
vival production and gathered together the
best company she has yet had in her sup
port.
The scenes OF "The Two Orphans" are
laid in and near Paris. New scenery has
been made for each scene and the produc-
ton will be given here in full. Our thea
tergoers should avail themselves of this
opportunity of seeing (for probably the
last time) one OF the greatest of plays,
and one OF the most popular of female
stars. "The Two Orphans was originally
produced in Paris. but its success has
been so enormous that il has been trans
lated and played in no less than eight lam
guages. a record uncqualled by any other
play.

MEN KILLED
 KNOWN HERE
CHARLES GODDARD KNOWN BY
 MANY LOCAL RESIDENTS
Messenger Brought News of Tragedy to Phoenix Officers Who Al Once
 Sent Posses after Perpetrators

The two ranchers who were killed north of Phoenix a few days ago were known by a number of people, now living in this section. Officer Hender- son stated yesterday that he was em- ployed by Charley Goddard for sev- eral months. The details of the af- fair show that the men were shot down in cold blood.
 While the killing of the two men is laid at the door of unknown Mex jeans, there are many inclined to think that there is another motive which led to the tragedy.
 After a hard ride over rough coun- try and wet roads Jose Altomirano brought news to Phoenix Sunday night of the double tragedy in the Bradshaw mountains. in which Chas. E. Goddard, a prominent Arizona sheep owner, and one Of his team sters, Frank Cox, lost their lives.
 The courier conveyed a letter from Jim" Gibson, a cattle rancher sta toned fifteen miles south Of the scene of the tragedy. Gibson furnished only meager details of the murder. and the sheriff's office made an effort to keep the matter quiet until a posse was fairly in pursuit. The news reached Prescott and the Prescott and Phoe- nix offices were at once in telephOnic communication with each other 10 ar range for the in-e-ceptiOn Of the two unknown Mexicans who com,nitted the crime.
 Joe Roberts, the sheriff of Yavapai county. was in Phoenix tonight and Billy" Cook. sheriff Of Maricopa county, arranged with him to put two parties in the field. The posse from both directions met at the scene of the tragedy Tuesday when they SCOUT ed the mountains. II the authorities have any clue to the identity of the perpetrators Of the crime they are guarding their secret.
 The killing took place Sunday night about o'clock, when the victims were seated at the supper table. Ac- cording to advices from Jim" Gib- son, the Mexicans under cover of darkness took deliberate aim and shooting through the windows filed both bodies with lead. The Mexicans are afoot and have an equal chance of escaping. Doubtless they are headed in the direction Of the Weaver dis trict. where hundreds of MeXicans are ever ready to shield the most des- perate criminals.
 The region literally swarms with bandits. and once over the Bradshaw mountains and in the neignbOTbCod of Rich hill there is little probability of the officers finding their quarry. The mauslayers win be compelled to cover a distance of more than twenty miles walking over a rough and formidable country and with a good force of men in the field the posses may intercept them before they reach their Weaver rendezvous.
