SPLENDID COMPANY COMING.

Not often in the history of amuse- ments in Flagstaff is the announce ment of so pleasing an event possible as the appearance of the noted Phil harmonic Lady Quartette of Chicago, which will be heard in the School hall on Friday, May 20, for the first time.
 The Philharmonic Lady Quartette is touring west to California, and was induced to stop of here for one night only. They come here heralded by the most aattering press and public notices from all the states in which they have appeared this season, be- ing cited by the Texas press as the strongest company that had visited that state in recent years. They in- clude a lady quartette, character impersonator, and young lady vio- linist, Miss Lois Mendenhsll, whom the San Francisco papers have said is probably the best young lady violinist in America today.
 The program given by the Philhar- monies is said to be catchy and up-to- date in every particular. They ap- pear in the Elk's opera house in Albu- querque before coming here.
 The committee having the matter in charge are endeavoring to make the advent of these talented artists one of the social a we'll as musical features of the season. Reserved seats are on sale at Brannen's drug store.

There is very amusing story go-

There is very amusing story go- ing around in Los Angeles about a prominent member of the Ellery band, a young Italian, who likes very much to make 8 favorable impression on the ladies. He is short, as most Ital- ians are apt to be, and thought he would have more success if he could add couple of inches to his height. Having noticed in magazines and newspapers lately the advertisement of 8 man who had invented an appar- atus to make people taller, the am- bilious young man very quietly in- vested $1O in one of these machines. Now this young fellow has a room mate, also member of the band. Not wanting any one to know of his project, the young Senor conveyed his apparatus to his room after mid night one moonlight night after his companion had retired. Using no other illumination save that which came from the full moon outside, the young man adjusted the machine. This machine is SO made as to give those who use it the appearance of being strung up in mid air. A heavy weight is tied to the feet, iron bands are put around the chest, and gro- tesque head piece completes the cos tune, which is attached to the ceiling by bully. About ? o'clock in the morning the sleeping man awoke with a start to see ghastly spectacle in the moonlight--his companion hung up in mid air, his face purple, and his already prominent eyes starting out of his head. The first impression naturally produced on the young man so suddenly aroused was that his friend had committed suicide in mo- ment of unrequitted affection, and he gave a yell that was sufficient to arouse the neighborhood for quar- ter of mile around. People rushed in in all sorts of costumes and from
