A GREAT
IMITATOR

Arrangements were made last week
to have the celebrated impersonator,
VIM. Lee Greenleaf, Thursday evening,
Feb. 18th, the Fraternal Order of
Eagles having taken the initiative. A
miscellaneous programme has been ar
ranged, giving representations and a
great variety of selections from Garlic
ton, Reilly, Nye, Hussey, Holmes,
Poe and others.
In addition TO his original sketches
he will present as a monologue, one
of the most favored of the we'll known
plays, Grip Van Winkle," also the
interlude to ga Mid Summer Nights
Dream"
In thus presenting a play he uses no
costumes, wigs, or other accessories,
but distinguishes the characters by
initiating their facial expressions and
manners of acting and speaking.
Knowing what lines in the face indi-
cate certain types of character, and
being able to make these lines in his
face and to initiate great variety of
voices, he is able to give others his
conceptions of the characters, and it
is his fine conception and ability to
portray that rank him so high as an
entertainer.
PLAYS AS MONOLOGUES.
That it is possible for one person,
without the use of scenery, "stage
property" costumes or "makeups, "
so to present play that it will be as
intensely interesting and as we'll I'M
derstood as if presented by a company
of players who use all these articles,
is fact that may be easily doubted
by one who has never seen it demon
strated, and who does not consider
carefully why it is so. But when we
remember that it is the characters and
events of the play, not the scenery
around them, in which we are inter-
ested; and that it is the actors art,
not the costume he wears, which makes
us understand them, we can the
more readily believe that this is true
The monologue artist must build
his scenery in the imagination of his
auditors and distinguish his charac-
tiers by initiating their expressions
He must not only be familiar with
their features in order to resemble
them, but must understand their pas
sions and their thoughts in order to
express them in a natural manner. He
must be able to put himself in the
place of each of the characters and
change rapidly from one to the other,
and if he can do these things he can
so interpret play that it will meet
its highest object, which is to por-
tray human nature in such way that
it will be understood and to impress
the lesson to be learned from the lives
of others.

Entertains This Week.

This has been quite a week of en-
tertainments with Mr.. and Mrs. o. A.
Hesla. Owing to the large numbe Of
friends whom they wished to entertain
at their home they divided the invita-
tions into three sections, the first en-
tertainment being for Tuesday even
ing, when the gentlemen and their
wives who are members of the Euchre
Club, were entertained by Mr.. and
Mrs. Hesla together. The prize win
ners for that occasion were: Mrs. G.
w. Middleton, for highest points ;
Mrs. G. A. Peter, lone hands, and
Fen S. Hildreth, gentleman's prize for
highest points.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Hesla en-
tertained another party of ladies at
cards, the prize winners for that occa-
sion being: Mrs. j. A. Lowrey, prize
for highest points; Mrs. J. J. Fisher,
lone hand and Mrs. j. b. Hooker,
consolation prize.
This afternoon still another party
of ladies we're entertained, the form
of entertainment being changed from
cards to a guessing contest, which was
greatly enjoyed. Delicious refresh
ments we're served at each one of these
parties and Mrs. Hesla's we'll known
reputation as a charming hostess was
fully sustained.

Lewis Is involved.

The affairs of the International
Bank of Nogales which recently closed
its doors, seem to be in Every bad
tangle, and the affairs are found to
be worse involved on further investi-
cation. Two gentlemen who have just
come from Nogales, we're in Phenix
yesterday and they state that infor-
nation has been given out from re-
liable sources in that city that war
rant had been issued for Il. Allyn Lew
is, the financier of the bank, and that
an officer was or soon would be on his
way to New York to bring that gentle
men here.
The feeling, these gentlemen state,
is high in Nogales against the Off
cials of the bank, and some open
threats have been made. These threats
were so alarming that the officials pre-
fer the Jail to liberty Soon after be-
ing arrested John Dessert, president
of the bank, secured bond for the Off
cials. He had not been at liberty
long, however, before he voluntarily
returned to the Jail and has remained
close there even since. \ large num-
Der of small depositors have their all
in the bank, as we'll as some of the
larger depositors. The Shehan COM
pany recently sold a ranch for $40,
600, and the money was in the bank at
the time it closed its doors. One of
the men of this organization is known
to be a desperate man, and would not
hesitate to wreak summary vengeance
on the officials if lie thought there
was crooked work in the failure which
wiped out his deposit.
1t is charged that large part of the
money, said to amount to over S125,
600, was lost by Lewis in speculations
on Wall Street, and that the bank sold
exchange up to the hour of closing
on the last day the bank was open.
Mr.. Lewis friends in Pbenix, how
ever, doubt the accuracy of these
charges .-PheniX Gazette

Instructed Delegates.

DIR. VIM. Dufiield, one of the lead
ing republicans of Phenix, and a gen
tleman who has always taken an act
i've interest in the party's good, is
quoted as follows by the Phenix Ca
zette this morning:
"Should Wall street succeed in de-
feating Mr.. Roosevelt, the masses 1 am
afraid, would not have the confidence
in the nominee that they now have
in the president With Roosevelt at
the head of the ticket, the republican
party would remain in power, and the
country i'll safe hands. 1t is non
sense to court trouble, and so long as
every republican in the territory
claims to be for Roosevelt why not
send an instructed delegation to Chi
cago, where this territory can do what
little good il can. Even the fact that
Arizona instructs for Roosevelt would
have its influence, and the main thing
is to use it to the best advantage to
hold the balance of power and keep
the country from the disaster that is
sure to follow the election of a dem O.

The county republican convention of
Putnam county, Missouri, adopted
the following ringing endorsement of
President Roosevelt: 1.-THE republi-
cans of Putnam county, Mo-, in mass
convention assembled, most heartily
indorse the Incompatible administra-
tion of President Roosevelt and pledge
our best effort to procure his nomina-
tion and election as his own successor
to the high office now so creditabIy
filed by him. The convention of
the fifth congressional district of Mis-
souri, instructed its delegates to the
support of Roosevelt in the national
convention. Will Arizona, indebted
to him for so much, do less than show
its appreciation of him and gratitude
to him by pledging its delegation to
his support?

Sprinkle the Streets.

As this is the time of the year when
the wind will pay its daily respects to
this section, something like it has to-
day, but probably not always as bad,
yet bad enough to make it very disa-
greeable to be about, and bad enough
to fill the stores with dust and nearly
ruin the stocks of goods, there should

The wonderful metal, recently found
in certain ores, and known as radium,
continues to excite immense interest
among scientists. Sir William Ramsey
of England has ascertained that radium
gives off gas which slowly changes
into helium, hypothetical substance
known only to the spectrOscope. II
is thought the changing of radium
into helium makes possible the trans
mutation of metals. Thus former
theories in relation to chemistry may
be >revolutiouized. At present the
only practical use to which radium is
put is as a remedy for cancer, it being
claimed that its rays destroy the can
cerous tissue.

SOME COUNTY CONTRACTS.

The board of supervisors awarded a
number of the yearly contracts yester-
day.
The effect of awarding contracts last
year to the highest bidder was notice
able in the bids this year, as in three
or four instances only one bid was
presented for particular contracts.
This was particularly noticeable in
the bids for the burial of the dead.
The board in its superior wisdom last
year rejected a bid of 50. 80 on the
ground that the service was worth
more, and accepted a bid for IS per
body. The result this year was that
there was only one bid presented and
this at $50 per body.
The hospital contract was also let
last year to a high bidder, and this
year only one bid was presented for
that, as we'll as for the board of pris-
oners.
AS to the matter of the county
printing the Journal Miner was the
lowest bidder by little over 500, but
the board by close scrutiny of its
bids discovered a technical error in
which they felt justified in rejecting
the bid and letting the contract to the
next lowest bidder. The rejection was
solely on a technical point. The bids
called for a certified check to accom-
paRy all bids. The Journal Miner en-
closed its bids for county printing
and for printing the great register in
one envelope accompanying it with
the certified check as required. The
board ruled two certified checks of
$3.50 each we're necessary in spite of
the fact that the bidder has been en-
gagged in business here for over twenty
one years, has had numerous contracts
from the county, city and territory
and has never yet defaulted.
There is a territorial law, if the
Journal-Miner mistakes not, which
prohibits an officer of the county from
being interested in any contract. As
the chairman of the board is very
much interested in the paper to which
the contract was awarded, holding
mortgage of few thousand dollars on
it, he might have found technical rea-
sons for not making the award there
either. Or did that fact have an in
fiuence in making the award? The
people who pay the bills may answer
the question.
