MISSING WORD CONTEST
MRS. NORRELL WINS AGAIN
Has Had Her Zeal Awarded Oftener
Than Any Other Contestant-Many
Correct Answers Received.

The Palladium's missing word con-
est, conducted daily, is still attracting
a great deal of interest. Mrs. B. F.
Norrell, who won yesterdays conest,
has had her zeal awarded more times
than any of the others of the contest
ants, though scores have picked out
the missing words each day. The
first correct answer received is award
ed the prize. Many letters come by
mail, not reaching the office until late
in the afternoon. Yesterday there
were forty-seven answers received and
twenty-three were correct. In order
to stimulate new interest to all con-
cerned the Palladium believes that it
has made the solving of the missing
word contest somewhat more difficult
today. Read the conditions careful
ly again and then begin the search.
No answer will be received before 1870
o'clock this afternoon. Send or
bring your answers to the office at
that hour.

Yesterday was busy one for the

considered, but final action was again
delayed for one week. A remon-
STRANGE was filed against this improve
ment signed by majority of the resi-
dent property owners, and it is more
than likely that the resolution will be
modified and then sent to the Council
for their action.
Remonstrance was filed by Joseph
Lutmer against the assessment made
against his property in the matter of
the widening Of South H street. AS
this Improvement comes up for action

AT THE THEATERS
Vaudeville at the Gennett.

Berger Brothers, hand to hand bal
ancers and comedy acrobats, who are
on the bill at the Gennett this week,
do their full share toward furnishing
the entertainment. They perform
some very difficult feats in their bal
ancing, do some clever tumbling and
the comedy end of the team furnish
es considerable amusement by his an
tics. While much that they do looks
easy, those who take time TO think
about the matter can readily see that
it has taken long, hard preparation
on the part of the Messrs. Berger to
perform as they do now. Gill Brown,
polite entertainer and dancer, has a
clever song entitled, Perhaps" 9th
er features round out an evening of
much pleasure for those who care for
vaudeville. Liberal patronage is
marki"0 the week, the first that Man
ager 'sher has offered vaudeville
for a 'iderable time.

Rensrtoire at New Phillips.

1t seems almost incredible that per-
formers in repertoire can carry in their
minds the great number of parts they
are called upon to take in the course
of a weeks performance. While here
at the New Phillips this week, for
instance, the Dora Woodruff company
will produce perhaps ten different
plays and each actor is called upon for
that many roles, with entirely different
lines to recite and varied situations to
encounter. 1t takes careful prepare
ton to put through so many plays
without break, and this is what the
Woodruff people do. This afternoon
they will present The Stowaway' and
tonight "The Cowboy Girl" For the
remainder of the week the bill is as
follows: Friday matinee, children of
the Sums" night, DR. Jeykell and
Mr.. Hyde" Saturday matinee, 1.-THE
Old Judge" night, "Deadwood Dick"

The temperature was lower yester-

which in view of the temperatures of

In Yuma and Phoenix, where the

weather continues and there is little
hope of an immediate change.
The beach towns are crowded with
people who have fled from inland towns

be cool and comfortable.

Kittring and his attempt to murder his
wife and her sister, the police received
Information to detain Edwin Kittrng,
who. according to the information
given to the police by the uncle of the

to his mother and aunt and which, the
uncle said, the boy was going to use
to get transportation from this city.
According to the information given
by the uncle, Edwin went to the rooms
which his mother had occupied the day
after the attempted murder and there
told the landlady that his mother had
sent for her property, which included
a gold watch and some money. The
boy is said to have received the money
and taken it to his uncle's home in

HOODLUMS SPOIL
At HOME PARTY
HURL FIRECRACKERS, IGNlTING
LACE CURTAINS
Police Finally Come to Rescue of Har-
assed Sichel Street Hostess,
but Too Late to Catch
the Ruffians

Hoodlums interrupted a pleasant at
home given by the daughters, Georgia
and Hazel, of Mrs. A. l.. Morse, 1868
Sichel street, last evening, and before
the party left the police were notified
of the unusual disturbance.
Last evening the two beautiful
daughters of Mrs Morse planned to
entertain a party of their friends, and
at O'Clock the splendid home was
ablaze with lights and singing and
laughing were heard on the outside.
Soon after 10 o'clock in the evening
several hoodlums, who are said to be
very annoying to some of the residents
on Sichel street, began to serenade the
house. At first they sang and then be-
gan to jeer, and finally to throw lighted
firecrackers toward the building.
At first the noise was purposely not
noticed by the merrymakers, but soon
it became so loud that the two young
women who were entertaining became
alarmed.
The ruffians, however, became boldeI
and bolder, and finally threw lighted
firecrackers in the building through the
open window. When the crackers ex-
ploded a lace curtain caught fire and
burned fiercely and was extinguished
with some difficulty.
Soon after the police arrived on the
scene, but no trace of the trouble max
erS was to be seen.
