PIMA
Large Audience to
See Our PLAYERS

To show the appreciation in
which the Pima Comedy and
Dramatic Company is held at
home, it is only necessary to state
that every seat was sold for the
play of "Hazel Adams" last Sat.
urday evening before the doors
opened. The play deals with the
love and sorrows of Hazel Adams,
the heroine of the play, who is
driven away from home by her
father because of her refusal to
marry Basil Northcote, the man
he had chosen for her. She is
united with John Esterbrook, the
man of her choice. Northcote
turns out to be deep villain, and
is afterwards arrested for larceny
by the clever detective work of
Hazel's husband. Two negroes
and a negress interweave a vein of
comedy into the play and present
some vastly pleasing specialties.
The various parts were credit,
ably filled by Messrs. J. H. Lines,
Fred Webb, S. S. Green, W. E.
Mcbride, Lige Saline, Ethelon
Cluff, Mrs. Josie. Follett and Mrs,
W. E. Mcbride.
Appropriate music was furnished
by Charles N Birdno and Miss
ClYde Birdno.

Investigating Cold
Sf0raOe Plant

Judge Fonda is still investl.
eating the question of cold stor-
age plant. He states that there is
an enormous market in the mining
camps of southern Arizona for the
output of such plant. He further
states that every product of this
valley could be sold to those camps
at good prices if. the shippers
would but exercise care and clean
liness in shipping. All shipments
should be put up in neat, clean
style, and if the goods are perish
able they should be packed in ice.
1t is useless to send out goods half
decayed or dirty, as they will not
be paid for and only injure the
name of the Gila valley producers.
Mr.. Fonda has not decided which
is the best point for the plant, but
thinks Stafford will likely be a
feasible place. The plant should
of course be centrally located be-
tween Globe, Bisbee and Clifton,
wherever that point may be. The
production of chickens and eggs in
this valley, and in fact in all south
ern Arizona, is far below the de.
mand, and if storage plant were
established, it would be necessary
to keep it supplied by shipments
from the east. Mr.. Fonda is OF
the opinion that several large
chicken ranches would be paying
investment in this valley.

Suggests Need
OF Better Stock

ave find a great demand for
butter at present." said Mr.. q. G.
Prina, manager of the Stafford
creamery, to our representative
Monday. ave could easily sell
three tunes as much as we are
making and we could make three
times our present output if we
could get the milk, We are doing
everything possible to increase our
milk furnishers, but we find it
very difficult to obtain anywhere
near the amount of milk required
"Tho trouble with many Of the
farmers" continued Mr.. Prina, sis
that their cows are of an inferior
grade.
"a COW will eat thousand
pounds of hay month, according
to experiment station authorities
One cow may produce ten dollars
worth of milk in a month, whereas
another may produce only four
dollars worth. AS rapidly as
possible the farmers should dis.
pense with the four dollar COW and
build up their herds with ten dol
lar cows. The latter is as easy to
feed and milk as the former, and
the return to the farmer is two
and q half times greater. OF
course it takes time to bring about
these improvements, but it is to be
hoped the agriculturists will work
them along as rapidly as possible,
If we could obtain three times as
much milk as is now being deliv
cred to us it would mean three
times as much money distributed
through the valley,
"There is another question con.
nected with this subject that many
farmers do not consider thorough
ly. There is a somewhat general
idea that u ton Of hay at $40 yields
higher returns when sold as hay
than when sold as milk. This is
erroneous. When the farmer feeds
bis hay he saves the expense OF
baling, which is two dollars pei
ton, and also the expense of haul.
ing to market. Then again he has
the yearly increase in stock from
his cowherd. And in addition tc
these important items, ton of hay

says to the stranger with whom she has fallen in love, Whats your name?" the audience is truly deeply interested. Miss Robson as the heroine was excellent. Her dialect was exquisite; her every utterance was given with so much feeling that it went straight to the hearts of her audience. Her enunciation was we'll nigh perfect, and her lines at all times must have been heard in every part of the house. During the scene where she bade goodbye to the man whose name she knows not, but whom she is aware has killed the scoundrel that had endeavored to kiss her, there was not sound in the house. She had made an effort to help him escape, but he was later captured and was suspected of being a horse thief, it not being known that he had killed Baldwin. He with stage robber is about to be hanged, and as Salomy Jane says goodbye, no one else caring to do so, she kisses him. You would have to see tt to appreciate the scene. And the star was surrounded by most capable company. Tuba Bill, as. enacted by Scott Cooper, and Jack Mawbury, the gambler, handled their parts well. So did George w. Wilson, wlfo as Colonel Starbottle made the audi ence realize that almost every com munity has such, a parsonage, for in Waterbury, could be found q man who would fill the part to nicety. The colonel was the wise man of the village, with a white moustache and goatee, and was clustering like the wind at all times. In fact, all the parts were well taken care of. The three children in the cast were real istic characters and their childlike pranks kept the audience in good humor throu ghout the production. The setting. of the play could not have been improved upon. Would that we could see few more such productions.

It is a question whether a more pleased audience ever left Poli's than that of last evening after wit messing the production of "Salomy Jane" with Eleanor Robson in the stellar role.

ROLLER SKATING.

Eagles hall was re-opened last ev- ening as roller skating rink by Messrs McMahon and Halliwell, which. again promises to be one of the popular pastimes during the cold months. A very large crowd was in attendance which was something un- expected owing to the fact that mo- tice had not been made of the open ing up to few days ago. The skat- ing will be continued until the open ing of the Eagles fair when they will have to vacate for few weeks but when they come back again they will also have polo and will be here for good. Sessions are held every after noon and evening. Band music is fur nished at every session. On Satur- day evening skating will be dispensed with and there will be promenade.

GIRLS KIDNAPPING STORY.
New Haven Girl Returns Home Aftel
 Strange Absence,

New Haven, Oct. 2.-Saying that she had been Kidnapped and kept in confinement from the time of her dis appearance, September 19, Rosina Carlardi, the 15-years-old daughter of Frank Carlardi, returned to her parents last night. The story of the alleged kidnapping is somewhat con- flicting and the details are puzzllng the local police.
 On the night of September 19 Frank Carlardi entered police headquarters with Vthe story that his dauhgter had been kidnapped that afternoon. The story was not believed, but the child did not appear and finally a letter came from Naugatuck, on September 27 that bore earmarks of the Black Hand. It was crudely written, said the child was well and demanded $1OO0. =, .E
 When the child returned, she told a story of being seized and rendered ul- conscious by, the use of a drug. She averred that she had been confined in a dark room until she was released
 When questioned by an agent of the Organized Charities she told diff ferent story, to the effect that she had become dissatisfied with things at home and left. s..--.N .,.
