4 GREAT PIANIST.

To Readers of The Republican:
 I write to you in the interest of one Of the notable events in the musical history of this city. MT. Harold Bauer. the eminent pianist, is to appear here very shortly. He is now making a tour Of the country, and every place he is being acclaimed the king of pianists. In solid pianistic attachments he is doubtless without a peer. In Boston. with the symphony orchestra, he achieved a positive triumph, and his progress through the country has been one grand success. After much corre- spondence he has consented to make an appearance in Phoenix on his way to the west. He brings with him a magnificent grand piaEo and is to give us of his best. Let it hot be said of Phoenix that we coJld not appreci- ate this opportunity. Sincerely,
 VIM. EDISON STROBRIDGE

BAUER'S CONCERT.

Philip Hale, of the Bostcn Journal. the greatest critic in America, writes of Harold Bauer's first concert in Bos- tom This was a remarkable concert MT. Bauer not only gave rare pleasure to the inveterate concert gcer; he also awakened respect, sympathy and live ly admiration in the hearts of the hard ened musician and critic The per- formance of his Beethoven Concerto was d masterpiece of yhythm, senti- mert, poetry and understanding"
 Bauer will appear at the Doris the ater Tuesday evening, February 23. As it is very seldom that d town the size of Phoenix gets the opportunity of hearing an artist of this grade, it is to be hoped that the public will show It's appreciation of Manager Stechan's s bringing such an attraction in these days of vaudeville. show girls and farce comedies. Manager Greenbaum, who has the direction of Bauer's tour, is very much gratified, as most of the so-called theatrical managers don't ap- preciate the meaning of a recital by an artist of this caliber, while MT. Stech- an immediately took hold of it. Re- served seats will be on sale at Good mans, Saturday, February 20, at 10 a. Tn. Prices, $1.50, S1.O0 75c, 50c

RICHARD CARVEL.

Brilliant and powerful in style, MT. Andrew Robson, who comes to us next Thursday at the Doris, has won for himself a fine reputation as an actor of intense romantic roles. His Richard Carvel in Winston Churchll's story of that name is everywhere spoken of as fine and manly interpretation of a superb character in fiction. The gen. tlemans success in this part for the past two seasons has been something of phenomenal nature, and has serv- ed to place him in the foremost rank of the bright dramatic stars of the day. In form, face and voice critics unite in the belief that he Is the ideal Richard Carvel, such as Mir. Churchill had in his minds eye when he con ceived that parsonage.
 MT. Robson is said to have paid spe- cial attention to the selection of his company and made honest efforts to supply the requisite qualities needed for an amplification of the multiple characters required in MT. Roses adap- tation of the novel.
 The scenic establishment of the play is said to be of an laborate nature and the costuming absolutely accurate. Two carloads of scenery and wardrobe constitute the effects of MT Robson's S production of "Richard CarveI."

COULD HARDLY BE BETTER
Hessrs. kibbey and Fowler Satisfied
 With Washington Situation.

It was mentioned in The Republican when Engineer Hill was here that he had asked the permission of his su- periors to furnish the board of gov ernors of the Water Users association with maps, pictures, surveys, esti mates, etc, in his possession concern ing the Fish Creek road to the Tonto dam site. The desire Of the board to get this data Is to inform itself of con ditions and possible expense before en- tering upon a campaign for the issu ance of bonds for road construction. Secretary Parker yesterday received a telegram from MT. Hill in effect that he would be Mere about Thursday and would be prepared to give such infor- nation as he has in his possession.
 Secretary Parker also received let ters\ yesterday from President B. A. Fowler and Judge Kibbey. Both were under date of February &, and both announced that the matters under con- sideration were progressing nicely. and they thought they would be able to start home in about a week. The con- dition of things is tersely described in a quotation from one of the letters, which is, All matters are in first class shape and could hardly be better"

The Erwin Blunkall company will present Edwin Milton Royle's famous comedy drama. Captain Impudence.' as the opening play next Monday evening.
 The play is of particular interest, as it is of the time of the great Mexican war, involving some of the most excit- ing and important incidents of the his torical conflict in a we'll drawn story written by a master dramatist.
 The situations are well conceived, heightened by brilliant dialogue and a happy blending of sentiment and high class comedy that never fails to please the most conservative and critical theatergoer.
 Much has been said in praise cf MT. Blunkall and the members of his com pany wherever they have appeared.
 It is an evident fact that the organi- zatiOn is one of merit as 1t was chosen out of numerous applicants by MT. Crawford to open his beautiful new theater in St. Louis at the opening of the great fair.

HE CLEANED THE SLATE
A Suicide Who Left no Trace of His
 Identity.

An unknown man committed suicide last night just after dark by taking morphine, and presumably also, with suicidal intent. Whether it was hts purpose to conceal his identity, or whether he had nothing that could be of interest to others. save the namt that died with him, does not appear. but in any event he left as little as q man could to connect his memory or his personality with the world.
 About o'clock in the evening Off, cer Tipton passed down First street on his bicycle. There is a lot on the west side of the street, between Madi son and Jackson and adjoining the residence of C. Lauver, vacant except that it is occupied by the wagons of q transfer company in which MT. LauVer is interested. The officer saw a man sitting near wagon on pile of re- fuse lumber. The stranger hailed him and said Well come and get me If you want me. I'm onto you fellows"
 The officer replied that he was not hunting him and noticing that he was sick suggested that he had better go to his room if he had one. He replied that he guessed it was no use now.
 for" said he, Il have enough poison in me to kill a mule" At the same time he slipped off the lumber to the ground and the officer sent for c. w. Barnett, another policeman. pr. Hughes was also summoned but before he arrived the man was dead, having passed away in a convulsion.
 Coroner Burnett was called and summoning a jury the body was view ed where it lay and the pockets of the mans clothing were carefully search ed for valuables or any possible in formation. Not a letter, paper or scratch of a pen was found to indicate his name; there were no valuables. no money. All that did appear that was worth enumeration was a tin box nearly full of morphine in powder form, a similar one with tablets in it. the machinery of a hypodermic injec- tion plant, very small vial of ether probably used in connection with it. and other little medicine bottles and boxes.
 The dead man appears to be from B to 40 years old. has a small sandy moustache. rather high forehead. hair inclined to curl, but not heavy. He wore pair of dark pants covered by blue overalls, rather light coat and colOred shirt, and a light gray sloucn hat. very much after the manner of cowboy. His shoes were good but d little worn, the bwhoIe makeup re- sembling that Of a man whose busi- ness might be the driving of a freight wagon. His teeth are rather peculiar, being wide apart and not of a regular or attractive formation. The body was ordered moved TO the undertaking par lors of Mohn & Doris where anyone who thinks he might identify it will probably be privileged to see it.

RACE CALLED OFF
But Another Good One Was Run In
 Its Stead.

Jack Gibson yesterday called off the advertised horse race between his mare Bella Dcnna and Tempe Maid. which was intended to be a half mile dash for q purse of s150 side. The reason for stopping the race was that since it was announced a bigger race was scheduled between Bella Donna and Lottie Sparks. to be run on the 27th. As both horses are fast ones, and Opin
 fen is closely divided regarding their speed. MT. Gibson thought it better to

forfeit the first race than to tire the horse out before the larger race.
 A good race was run, however for a half mile dash, between My Boy, own ed by MT. Rosenbaum, who keeps a corral at Five Points, and a colt that belongs to Jim Winningham My Boy won the dash in 51 seconds. There was a very fair attendance, though some were disappointed in not seeing the ex- pected race between the two horses first named.
