Florence Roberts in "Magda. !"


Florence Roberts, who ranks
among the great actresses Of this
country, comes to the Auditorium
tor one night on Tuesday, Dec. Sth,
in Herman Seederman' powerful
drama, "Magda," which ranks
among the classics of dramatic liter
ature and is said to be Miss Roberts
best achievement.
The story is woven around the
character of the daughter Of strict
old German soldier, who leaves her
home and adopts the stage for a
career. She becomes famous as an
opera singer and after some years
returns to the family circle and is
received with open arms. The
father endeavors to force her into
an uncongenial marriage involving
such a number of sacrifices that the
daughter refuses, and the wilful
father dies from the shock.
The play is powerfully construct
ed from every standpoint, and af-
fords Miss Roberts excellent op-
portunity to demonstrate the mar
velous qualities of her art and ver-
satility.
Miss Roberts is supported by a
strong company, including Messrs.
Lucius Henderson, Frank Hollins,
VIM. Yerance, Howard Scott, w.
L. Gleason, George Yielding, Greg
ory Rodgers, Albert Luetringer and
Misses Fanny Young, Edith Angus,
Virginia Brissoc, Marion Barhyte,
Louise Royce, Lucia Stetson, and
others.
The scenery and properties will
be attractive features of the per-
formance here on Tuesday night.

Al. Stevens, q brother to |. \. and C. F.. Stevens, who spent several years of his early life in Clifton, arrived last week from the Philippines, where he had been living for the past four years. When the Spanish American war broke Ou., Al. was in business in Ohio, but realizing that interpreters the government, which were accepted, and he was sent to Porto Rico, where he spent some time. After returning he went to the Philippines and en- gagged in business for himself and did well until the cholera struck the country, which paralized trade of all kinds. Al. is not particularly favor ably impressed wsth the Philippines. He says the islands are rich in many ways, but there are so many draw backs that he thinks an American can do much better at home than in that country. The mining resources, he says. are undeveloped. There has been some little placering done by prospectors. who, however, accom- plished little, as the diggings had been worked hundreds of years ago. Owing to the dense growth of under- brush and the deep alluvial deposits, it is almost impossible to prospect for lodges. The mosquitoes, teaches, and other annoying insects, almost drive the prospectors crazy. In fact almost all of them have either succumbed to the trying conditions or were killed by the natives. who have but little use for the Americans anyway. Mir
 Stevens is of the opinion that the is lands will be no good to the Ameri- cans until existing political conditions are changed. Americans will invest nothing without concessions protect ing their interests, and these they can- not now get. Mir. Stevens seems to be of the opinion that the affairs of the islands are not conducted in such manner as to give Americans any en- couragement at all, and many more of them are leaving there than are ar irving. The aristocratic class Of Filip- riuos, he says, are better satisfied with the present form of government than they probably would be with any other. but the great mass of natives are not satisfied and never will be un- til as a people they can be educated, and taught what civilization means to them and their country. He says they are apt students, and "catch on" with amazing rapidity when brought into daily contract with the Ameri- cans. Mir. Stevens is on his way home to Ohio, where he has an interesting family of wife and four children whom he has not seen in four years. He will spend few days here visiting relatives aud old friends.

Nenhi Packer and Dick Hill. two Q.

Nephi Packer and Dick Hill, two of Duncan most prosperous and pro- gressing citizens. spent couple Of days in Clifton this week. They re- port this the finest season that Dun- can has ever had, and predict inn mense crops. The agricultural area is fast eXpending in that section, and good crops this year will still further increase the acreage under cultiva- tion. The entire community is pros porous and contented, except that labor sufficient cannot be secured to harvest their crops, but by working over time they will all be able to save their grain.

W. E. Thompson. president of the Coronado Copper company, is home again from the Bisbee country, where he spent some days looking over the district. He reports great activity in that section. but thinks there is a greater element of risk in prospecting there than in this section. In the Blsbcc country nothing crops out on the surface, and in order to ascertain whether or not a claim carries values. 1t k necessary to sink from 700 to 1000 feet. This of course precludes prospectors from doing development work, which can only he undertaken by big companies. The wonderful success made by the Calumet & Ari- Zona company set the district wild, and for the past year tremendous boom has been on. Prices for mere prospects have gone skyward, but
 only seems to stimulate the desire Of purchasers, who seemed to be afraid that the opportunities will all be gone in short time. Mr. Thompson, who has had much experience, does not hesitate to say that he thinks the Bisbce country is all right, but it is quite evident from his conversation that he prefers the Clifton Morenci district, where the mines can be opened by tunnels, and can be made to pay from the grass-roots.

Mike Rose Dead.

On Sunday last at 2 30 p. m., Mike Rose. a well known citizen of Clifton, breathed his last.
 He had been sick but a few days, and even his most intimate friends did not realize that he was danger ously ill, hence his sudden death was a great shock to them.
 Deceased was thirty-three years of age. He was reared at Silver City, New Mexico, and was resident of that section until he moved to Clifton two years ago.
 At the breaking out Of the Spanish American war he joined the Rough Riders, and was one of the few Grant county boys who SAW service in Cuba. He was with the Rough Riders at Fl Caney and San Juan, and was person ally complimentcd by Colonel Roose- welt for his conduct in those engage ments.
 After the surrender Of Santiago he was taken sick with the Cuban fever, from the effects of which he never fully recovered. Until that time he was a perfect specimen of physical manhood.
 He was kind hearted, good and honest man, ever ready to assist those in distress and need. He had many friends throughout the southwest who will 9rieve for his untimely end.
 He leaves an aged mother and father at Silver City, and several brothers and sisters to mourn his loss.
 The funeral occurred Monday cven- ing from the residence of C. r. John son, South Clifton, the services being by Coronado Lodge K. Of F., of which order he had long been a member. The funeral was largely attended.
