THE MINSTREL SHOW.
Gus Suns Big Company and It's Success
Last NIGHT.

Gus Suns Minstrels were greeted
with large and enthusiastic audi
ence at the Doris theatre last night,
and fun reigned fast and furious
from the rise to the fall of the cur

Many new features were intro
duced during the first part. The
solo singing was exceptionally fine.
Among the best were the solos of
Frank Minch, who Is without doubt
the best baritone heard here
with any Ministries and the
basso, Dan P. Trent, who it
was plain to be seen, was suffering
with a severe cold, sang finely.
During the specially part OF the
program especial mention should
be made of the rag time dancing OF
Diamond Bros, who showed the
Phoenix patrons of shows what was
needed to convulse an audience
with laughter. Harry Skunk was
ca y the best monologist that has
appeared here, and at any time he
will be a welcome visitor.
Each and every act was a teatu, e
In itself, but Mr.. Sun seems to
know good thing and consequent

patti ons what Is essentially needed
to complete a meritorious and
and up to the minute program. Mr..
Sun made a strong hit with the
audience in his Juggling act. The
spectacular street parade caught the
crowd and held 1t ill the band had

to hear another string.

Boomer kind of a socialist, but
belongs TO the less radical class, who
do not believe in seiznig the earth

or ceremony. He thinks the socialist
theories will be gradually introduced
into our government and society as
the people demand them and not
before. Talking politically, be does
not claim success for his party in
this state the coming campaing, but
says that the party will put up state
and county tickets and will poll

been formed for the purpose of
publishing a paper and printing
literature. The headquarters will be

for an active campaign and will have
speakers in the field by June and
keep them there until election day.
Mr.. Miller says that the republicans
have a good show of carrying the

travelling over the state he finds much
dissatisfaction with the administFa-

the democrats more united.

the great chronological problem, much discussed
and speculated upon by scientists here and
abroad as TO the origin of the native races Of
the northwest coast Of our continent and
their relation to those Of the Old World. Com
parative studies indicate that the primitive
tribes Of both coasts have passed through a long
and varied history. The type Of the Indian in
habitauts now occupying the North Pacific
Coast Of America shows a great similarity TO
North Asiatic peoples, and the question arises
whether this resemblance is due 10 mixture. TO
migration or to gradual differentiation The
culture of this area shows many traits that
suggest a common origin, while others point to

Toward solving this difficult question sys-
teruatic researches have been carried on among
the various Indian tribes Of the North Pacific
Coast and many specimens have been obtained
which throw new light upon their present and
past customs Probably the most interesting
tribe. as far as their mysterious and spectacular
ceren5niaIs ale concerned, are the Kwakiutls,

represent a fabulous god, is concealed on the
top Of the roof near the centre out Of whose
mouth drops the grease to feed the fire, which
has been previously placed in a scCoped out
cavity in the interior Of the image. The flames

almost scorched by the heat Still etiquette de-

Another Kwakiut ceremonial which was for
merly considered very important and was wide
ly practsed, was called the potlatch, which
nothing more than clever swindling codge on
the part Of the gtver to acquire possession Of
quantity of household property which he feeced
from his ignorant guests. In short, the prnci-
pie underlying the potlatch is that each person

had to bestow the host. This was usually
