 ROBBED AGAlN.-Selim Ackel re- ported to the marshal's office yesterday that the store of himself and brother had been robbed again. He said there was more iewelry and some money missing. He also said that he slept in the store but went out about 10 o'clock Saturday night to get his supper He did not discover the robbery till early Sunday morning. An officer looked over the premises which are one of the storerooms in the Gardiner block, the store having been moved there since the robbery a few weeks ago. The back window was found to be open but no trail that could be followed was found. Later the goods thought at first to have been stolen were found by K lars had dropped them as though they were frightened away during their work.
 GOT PHOENIX SkINNED.-Report is that Phoenix has got to take a back seat in the matter of raising sweet potatoes. The record yam in these parts is somewhere between thirty and forty pounds but the Yuma board of trade announces that John Crowley of that county has brought in for exhibi- tion a sweet potato that weighs 43A pounds. The suggestion is made that MT. Crowley's sweet potato was the cause of the earthquake in Yuma last spring and that the temblor resulted from the potato pushing the surface of the earth out of place to make room for it to grow in In the course of time Mir.

 CAR BROKEN DOWN.-A number of Phoenix passengers on the Indian school car yesterday found themselves up against it in a very discouraging way. The car was almost at the north end of the line when it suddenly baked and refused to go any further. There was no wreck or breakage that they could see and it looked as though the car had been suddenly stricken with heart disease. The passengers waited till the motorman walked to the school to telephone for a doctor or another car. He returned and reported that he could not even establish tele- phone connection with the outside world. He hoped to have things fixed up shortly but could give no assurance that anything would be done that day SO most of the passengers asserted their rights as fTeemen and walked back to town. They knew the company would have to bring them back some time but they didn't propose to stay

1.-THE MINISTER'S SON."

"The Ministers Son. is like a simple melody. restful, though somewhat soul stirring. The play itself is quiet and wholesome. unfreighted with any giant purpose, any perplexing complications or any wearisome waste of words. In "The Ministers Son" is a beautiful sim pie portrayal of every day life, showing a sons loyalty to his parents, and while all the village think him a worthless idler and laugh at his invention. he goes to the city and soon interests cap italists in his scheme, sells his inven- ton and returns home in time to save his old father and mother from being turned out of their home. A beautiful pastoral play that has won its way into the hearts of the theater-g going public, and while high-class and refined in construction, it is a play for the masses and appeals to all classes. This company appears here next Wednes- day, Jan. 20.

DOWN BY THE SEA"

Tn these days when everyone is be- moaning the degeneracy Of the drama it is intensely interesting and refreshing to sit for three hours and thoroughly enjoy a clean, wholesome play like Down by the Sea which is announc- ed for a. special engagement at the Doris theater next Friday, Jan. 22. For the past eight years this play scored one of the most pronounced sue cesses in England and was unanimous " endorsed as the most powerful com edy-drama produced since the days Of "The Silver King" As to plot and story 1t is complete and the situations and climaxes are thrilling and inter esting. Its characters are original ere ations and the play throughout is re- fined and free from stage eXaggeratiOn so common in most melodramatic pro auctions of the present day. The com pany presenting Down by the Sea- is far above the ordinary in quality and size. The scenic effects are elaborate and beautiful and the production is one of the most expensive of it's kind on tour.

Filter Beds Ready for Concrete.
There are TO be twsnty-nine filter beds,
each covering acre. There have al
ready been excavated approximately GO9,OO0
cubic yards of earth. This has cleared the
way for about fifteeH beds. For the re-
naming beds it win DC necessary to exca-
vate about 2To000 cubic yards. Each of
the three steam shovels has capacity of
1900 cubic yards per day, and they are
working assiGuousiy, with almost human
conscience. A point has been reached, how
ever, where 1t is imy-acticable to do any
more excavating at present The contractor
will wait until the concrete filter beds have
been laid and dried on the ten acres now
ready. Then he can dump the excavated
gravel right into the beds to serve as MI
ters. This will obviate the necessity of
carting the dirt a half mile away and bring
ing it back again. In this regard Mr.. h.
ID. Hardy, in charge of the work under

lay has been encountered. The general i'm
