 Miss Fife Robinson is enjoying al pleasant two weeks vacation from her duties in the Copper Queen store of flee. She win go to Naco tomorrow to spend a few days with Mrs Tapp. Miss Robinson formerly lived in Naco.
 The general opinion of those who saw the play Tuesday evening was that of approval and complete satis- faction. The entertainment was giv- en by the young people of Douglas un- der the auspices of the St. Cecelia Guild, and was, to say the least. a success. Some features were equal to those of a professional program and received the hearty applause due them. The Florodora Sextet as cur tain raiser was not only well drilled and gracefully executed, but was ar tistic and generally. pleasing, The na- tional dances were a novelty highly at tractive to the audience, each number being carried out in costume, and graceful dancing representing the diff
 
 feature of this number was the Span ish dance, with Mrs Ready and Miss Martha Griffith in the role of senori- tas. After responding to an encore, the audience was reluctant to lose sight of such perfect grace and sym metry as these ladies preseeted. Noth- ing could have been more complete than the ease and gracefuiness of their dance. The solos were all good and thoroughly enjoyed. In speaking of Jack Baglin, some one said Hes all ways good" and so be is; he never fails to hold his audience. The recita- tion of Miss Ellie Robinson was good, many people were heard to compli- ment her spirited and realistic pre- sentation Miss Kelsey, though prac- tfcally a newcomer in Douglas, sang in a most pleasing manner; her voice has the quality of the true contralto. But perhaps the most complete sur prise were the selections by the old time favorites, the "Elk's Tooth Quar- tet." These gentlemen have made for themselves an enyiabie reputation and may rest assured of place on every program in the future. Their songs were well selected, and simply carried the audience by storm. The burlesque on the Elk's Tooth was truly comical MT. Georgeson in his lady of color stunt with MT. McVey was so completely disguised that even his friends had trouble in identifying him. He made a most bewitching lady and warbled in regular prima donna fashion, and then last came the Major Mariory, a well drilled chorus, and most military in their maneuvers. Miss Rose Conwell was splendid in her part, and received no end of compli- ments. And now it's all over. The play was good. It amused large aud fence, whose general sentiment was that of decided approval, and the la dies realized handsome sum in con sequence, even more than could have been hoped for.
 Judging from their earnest talk and expressive gesticulations one might have guessed they were complaining at the fierce questions in final exams. but who ever guessed just right in the case of two little boys? When one came a little closer he found the word ''merry-go-round" was the cause of so much excitement One little man was so in hopes the concern would stay un- til after school was out, cause then he

Some one has prophesied that this week, in fact, the remainder of the summer, would be very duHi especial ly so since so many persons are leay- ing, but we fail to find that view correct one One must consider that there are any number of people re- turning from delightful visits, and, be- sides. we few left behind are going to see to it that we do not lack for good times. This week has been one con tinual round of excitement, with sev- eral parties, the play on Tuesday night, and the lawn fetes. It's fairly impossible to imagine any relaxation in our gayety.

months. Their work for this year has been faithfully carried out, and a sue cessfui term concluded, thus making it possible for them to spend the re- mainder of the summer In rest and on pleasant vacations. With all due mod esty they have tried to console us by saying that their places will be filled by others for whom we feel the same interest. but we feel justified in saying that there are not any more at home like these. Mir. Lutz, who has been an able and congenial superintendent, is planning to go to his home in Virginia and visit his mother. Some time later in the summer MT. Baughman will go to Ohio to visit his old home place, which he has not visited for several years.

 Miss Hooper will spend a delight fut week visiting Mir and Mrs. E. R Pirtle before she joins Miss Majors in Fl Paso.

 In 9 very short time Miss Weber will leave for her home in San An ton c, Texas, and about June Miss Lucas will go to Superior, Wisconsin to spend the summer at her home.
 Miss Christy will make a tour of several interesting cities which hold social place in her memory, Tucson first, then Phoenix and Prescott, and finally trip to Los Angeles.
 As was stated last week, Miss Moore is in the east enjoying the festivities
 
 it really very cosmopolitan to have cur teachers come from such various points, and what a compliment to Douglas that so many should express their desire to return next .ar. The appointments have already been made, and the following teachers chosen for the year beginning next September: Mrs. Anna Dyer, Mrs. Florence K. Smith, Mrs. Edith Flickinger, Misses Mary Mullen. Berta Weber, Sarah Hooper, Mae Broyles, Nina B. Hurst, Katharine Christy, Anna Lucas, Mar garet Norcop, Ethel Moore and Mir. F. J. Baughman.

On Tuesday evening Mir. Fisher con- ducted a crowd of young people through the Copper Queen mine. The party went down through the Hol- brook and came out at the Gardner. There are many people who have lived in Bisbee for years without seeing the inside of one of the greatest cop per mines in the world. Hundreds of men go in and out every day of the year without injury. and yet it makes a woman shudder at the very thought of going down in those awful cages This party who enjoyed the novelty were Mrs. Gallon, the Misses Quale, Glasgon, Malam, Black. Silverthorn. Perry, Messrs. Cain, Perry, Wood, Williams, Fischer and Doris.
