THE BosWoRTH READING
An Event of Much Merit az the Nor
NAL Friday Evening.

II is probable that not again in some
time will Tempe people be privileged
To attend an event Of as high a charac-
ter As was the reading Of Macbeth at
the Normal Auditorium last Friday
evening by Hobart Van Zant Bos-
worth. Mr.. Bosworth has made a
study Of Shakespeare's works for
many years and for the last twenty
has devoted the greater part Of his
time To the stage in different charac-
tiers Of the great writer's plays He
played the part of Macbeth when
eighteen years Of age and at the read
ing Friday night showed himself
familiar with every line Of the piece
Mr.. Bosworth has been resident Of
Tempe off and on for couple OF
years and though he IS intimately
known by many. Friday evening was
the first time that many Of his best
friends here had seen him on the
stage. An excursion from Phoenix on
account Of the event was literally pat
ronized and when Mr.. Bosworth took
the stage. the auditorium was comfort
ably filled. He devoted a few mo-
ments to a discussion of the history
Of art and drama. the probable origin
of Shakespeare's plays and other mat
tiers relative to the question at hand.
on account Of the length of Macbeth
II was obviously impossible for him
10 read the entire play; but he inter-
preted the most important scene and
in manner that proved him to be a
man of rare ability in Shakespearian
roles and an actor in the truest sense
Of the word. Not only did ne read
portions Of the play but when he came
To scene in it upon which famous
actors differed rs to its proper inter
probation. he gave both and perhaps
at the same time. his version Of it.

TEN CENT STORE.

new stock of notions which Will be
opened to the public this week under
the name of the Ten Cent store. The
location of the new concern is east OF
the telephone office on East Main for

store. 1t is the idea of the proprietor
not to institute a competitive business
with any other concern in the city but
to fill a place which she believes is

SHELTER SMOKE HAS
 NO TERRORS FOR BENSON

A recent press report states that the United States supreme court has been asked to grant an injunction against the operation of the Tennes- see Copper companY's smelling plants. on the ground that they are public nuisance The smelters are not yet completed and the supreme court very properly refused to grant the injunction, and will give the smelling company an opportunity to demonstrate their assertion that no appreciable damage will result. The court gave them until october to October to make a showing.
 Here in Arizona, where people are familiar with copper smelters. they are glad to have them located in their midst, more especially points like Benson says the Benson Press, where there are so many big bodies of cop per ore within radius of fifty miles in every direction
 Furthermore, even the slight incon- yenience of smelter smoke is entirely eliminated from the homes situated from the smelter in the direction from whence come our prevailing winds.

WHAT'S TO BE DONE WITH ROOSEVELT

All great institutions have a "fixer,' g that is person who. as the name suggests, fixes things when they go wrong. He must be clever and dip Iomat. The "fxer' has different names. The corporation attorney is a type of the 'fixer." An insurance adjuster is type of the "fixer." Tn the show world he is just the '.fixer." !"
 The forthcoming retirement Of Roosevelt has opened up speculation as to what he shall do in the future. Whats the matter with, creating the position of national '-fxer" and giv- ing the place to Roosevelt? It is just the place for him and Roosevelt is just the man for the place. More over 1t would not interfere with Loeb.
 Someone has suggested a senator ship for the president Another per son has suggested cabinet position. Marse Henry Watterson in a molly coddtsh moment connects Roosevelt with the presidency of Harvard uni versity. Life has suggested that he go way back and sit down, while the St. Louis Republic nominates him for the position of Universal Tennis En- voy Pienipotent.ary This paper thinks the position of National Fixer is the one for which Roosevelt is best fitted. Give him the job and ciothe him with power and he will do the rest. Of course. thers might come time when the "fxer" would have to be fixed" but why look So far ahead?

The Tucson Star has passed its thirtieth mile post on the Arizona Journalistic road. It was the first to begin the publication of daily in the territory and the first to receive the Associated Press dispatches. The Star was published during the trou- bIesome and dangerous days of the territory when the Apache Indian say. ages hid in the mountain passes and behind rocks to await the coming Of the wagon trains which were the only means of transportation.

This paper has it from a source which is absolutely reliable that the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining company is working more men in the mines today than at this time a year ago The Calumet and Arizona and other companies in the Warren dis trict are in good shape so far as miners required for producing ore is concerned. Labor is very scarce all over the country and it is hard for any mining district to increase it's forces. but certainly Bisbee is getting her share of men, notwithstanding the efforts of the Western Federation of Miners to keep union men out of the district. There will be great in- crease of working mines in Bisbee during the coming fall. as at that time to handle much more ore than ever the smelters in Douglas will be ready before.

All that remains in Bisbee of the strike. called by the Western Fedora ton of Miners. are a few pickets. When the strike was called it was against the wlll of majority of the union men working in the camp who had no grievance because of wages, hours or other conditions. Nearly all the men who obeyed the strike call drew their pay and left the district. leaving the organizers to handle the strike as best they could. The reason the Bistee strike failed was because it was not based on any real griev- ance and did not have the sanction of even the union men in the camp.

According to our understanding of the two decisions recently given by Judges Doan and Nave they are not necessarily conflicting. Judge Doan held that a justice of the peace had no jurisdiction to try criminal case for the violation of a city ordinance where the offense charged was not violation of the territorial statue. The case before Judge Doan was against barber in Bisbee who pro ceeded to do business without first SC curing the city license required by an ordinance. Doing business without 8 city license is not a crime under the territorial law. The case before Judge Nave was based on a charge of dis turbing the peace in violation of a city ordinance. Disturbing the peace is made misdemeanor by the terri torial statute as well as by the Globe city ordinance. Hence, as we under stand the two cases they are not nee essarily conflicting. If the decision of Judge Doan is sustained there are many very important city ordinances which cannot be enforced The new city charter law would remedy this lame place in our municipal govern ment

From the manner ia which the anti American agitation in Japan sudden ly ceased, which was accompanied by the announcement that Aoki would remain at Washington, there is ground for suspicion that some ex- traordinary diplomatic passages have occurred within the week. England and France. Japan's allies, realize the power and wealth of America and the comparative poverty of Japan, if the Nippon islanders do not themselves. Those powers. it may be surmised, have said something that has caused Japan to see the great light.

The latest Republican plan to get rid of the surplus Is to pension the government clerks that have become too old for active work. If that is done all employees of the government whether clerks. artisans or laborers, must in all fairness receive the same treatment. With civil pension list added to the military pensions, the in. creased government expenditures would be good excuse for further postponement of tariff reform.
