1.-THE KNOBS O. TENNESSEE"

THE KNOBS O TENNESSEE"
 "The Knobs O. Tennessee" the play selected to open the third week of the successful engagement now being played at Eastlake park, combines to very great degree all the elements that go to make up the successful play of the present day-comedy, pathos, villainy, love. and spirited and inter- esting action-every scene unfolding new themes, new plots, new ideas, which are finally woven and inter- woven into one pleasing, wholesome and thoroughly entrancing play
 The opening scenes of the play are laid in the heart Of the Tennessee mountains, for which scenes the scenic artist of the company has painted the entire settings, and which are most elaborate; in fact, the most preten- tious ever attempted in the annals of summer theatricals in Phoenix. The simple mountain people are shown with their peculiar dialect and their simple modes of act and speech, but withal they make up a homelike pie ture that lives forever in the memory. Their loyalty to each other is brought out to a marked degree, and, in fact. furnishes the principle motive for the play, which hinges around the raiding of an illicit "still' by the United States deputy marshals The comedy is fur nished by a young Irishman in love with a Swede girl and the old negro servant of the family, who knows that Irish and Swede am a mixture the good Lord done goin' to frown down upon just as sure as your born.'
 The Evening Press of Lima, ohio, has this to say of the production of the play by this excellent company in that cif ba Gaf of the Ethel Tucker company by the press of the east and south were verified last night by the presentation of Hal Reid's notable play, The Knobs O. cnnes- see.' The play was well cast, the act ing excellent, the costumes appropriate and the stage settings and scenic ef- fleets admirably suited to the several situations. No fault can be found with the acting of any of the cast but the Press feels that special mention should be made of the superior rendition of the character of Joe Preston. the moonshiner, who dares to love a city girl by Whit Brandon, the Madeline of Miss Tucker whose impersonation of the character was a dream of sweet simplicity and naturalness, the excel- lent work of Otto F. Peck in the eX- acting dual roles of Lige Preston and Col. Bailey. and especially forceful was the delirium scene of the latter char acter in the last act, as forceful and masterful a bit of acting as it has been our pleasure to witness in some time; also the exceptionally clever imperson- atiOn of the Swede girl by Miss Geder- oth."
 The other characters are cast to meet the best in the individual merits of this talented company and an eX- ceptionally clever performance may be looked forward to.

the bank in the sum of S5,00O. As an evidence of indebtedness they gave the bank their note for that amount and each of them put up 5000 shares of Cieneguita stock as security.
 It is alleged in the complaint that there was an understanding that the stock was not to be sold except on the agreement of all the parties 10 the transaction and in that event the bank was to sell only enough of the stock to cover the amount of the note and that the part of the Batre stock remaining unsoId was to be turned over to Mrs. Batre.
 It is also alleged that an arrange ment was made between the bank and MT. Christy whereby the stock was converted to the use of the bank. The plaintiff says that he has since de- manded in vain his share of the stock.

SUIT FOR STOCK
Revival of the Case of Batre Against
 the Valley Bank.

Suit was begun in district court yes terday by Charles Batre and Alma R. Batre against the Valley Bank and Shirley Christy for s5O,OOO, the value of 5000 shares of Cieneeguita stock alleged to have been wrongfully con- Verted. A suit with the same object in view was begun about two years ago and when it finally came to trial by reason of the absence in the east of MT. Batre and his attorney. the late Judge William H. Barnes, it was dismissed without prejudice.
 It is stated in the complaint that the first named plaintiff and MT. Chris ty, who were then associated together in the service of the Mutual Life In surance company, became indebted to

Will Be Associated Hereafter With
 Mexican Interests of ". K. Ryan.

l.. H. Landis returned yesterday morning from a months visit to the United States, spending most of his time in the vicinity of New York and other villages that have electric lights for the country butterflies to buzz around. He returned feeling well, and coming this time mainly for his health. Having found something during his absence that seemed to offer him more promising future, he resigned his position with the local Santa Fe sys- tenn. But he wanted to come back, anyway, and formally turn over the office and rest up for a week before assuming his new duties. In order to have an excuse for being in Phoenix while he wasn't working, he managed to catch a severe cold in Chicago, and is now parading as an invalid. It was a hot day in Chicago, hotter even than it gets in Phoenix, though the ther- mOmeter didn't get so high, but MT. Landis managed to secure his cold by sitting under an electric fan. Less energetic men than MT. Landis have been able to do that
 MT. Landis' new employment will take him to Mexico, and probably keep him there the greater part of the time. He has become associated with W. K. Ryan, as private secretary, MT. Ryan being well known in this city and hav- ing spent two or three winters here with his family. MT. Ryan has large interests with the Ryan-Whitney syn dicate and the Metropolitan railway system of New York, of which Paul Morton will soon assume the active management. But MT. Ryan's per- sonal activities for a few years past have been mainly in Mexico, where he is engaged in mining, railroad con- struction and various other enterprises requiring the employment of large capital by himself and associates. It is in this field that MT. Landis expects to be employed after leaving here. MT. Ryan spent last winter in Mexico, but went to New York a few weeks ago. MT. Landis meeting him there.

A SPIRITUALiST MECCA.

Gift of Church Expected to Make
 Leroy. Ill.,, Headquarters of Cult.
 A Spiritualist church is soon to be erected at Leroy. Ill.,, at cost of $25.- .00O says a Bloomington dlll dispatch to the Chicago Record Herald. The money is provided for in the will of J. T. Crumbaugh, wealthy banker of Leroy. who died recently, aged eighty seven. The will Is dated four years ago.
 The beQuest is in the form of LIDO acres of the richest farm land in cen tral Illinois, worth $200.00O. from which the income Is about $10.000 yearly. The amount remaining after the church has been built will be used for the furtherance of the Spiritualist belief.
 While at present there are only about 100 members of the denomination in Leroy, 1t is believed that the Crum- baugh church will make the town the headquarters of the cult in the United States and that finally it will become the Mecca of believers from all parts of the world Special provision Is made that no part of the land shall be mort gagged or disposed of. but 1t Is left for ever and ever for the uses mentioned.
 Mrs. Crumbaugh is an ardent Spirit ualist and will see that the will of her husband is carried out both in letter and spirit.
 Splritualists say that the bequest of Mir. Crumbaugh is the result of direct inspiration from departed spiritualists and that the Crumbaugh will was di- rected. just as the Leland Stanford. Jr., university was founded. under in- spiration. as alleged. of the spirit of Senator Stanford's only child.
 The will also provides for the cree ton in Leroy of a free public library. and further provides that after her death Mrs. Crumbsugh's part of the es- tate. amounting to $100.000. shall re- vert 10 Spirituallstic uses.
