THE STORY OF PATSY"
TouchingIy Told by Miss Crossen at
 the Normal Friday Evening

Those who failed to attend the en- tertainment at the Normal Auditorium Friday evening by Miss Nellie Amber Crossen missed a rare treat indeed. and there were many such. for the merit O. the evenings entertainment was deserving of much better patron age from the public. The audience, though small, was an appreciative one and from the start was in full sympa- thy with the speaker.
 Miss CrOssen at the last moment, decided to change the evenings pro- gram from When Knighthood was in Flower" to "The Story of Patsy" and miscellaneous readings and in so do- ing her program was made to embrace every emotion from grave to gay. from mirth to pathos from comic to dra- matic and serious to sublime. The feature of the program was Kate Douglas Wiggin's famous sketch. ''The Story of Patsy" In presenting this, Miss Crossen showed marked ability. Those familiar with the story can ap- preciate the varied emotions required to properly portray the several char acters. Miss Crossen was not found wanting in any of them and at the conclusion of the story there were few dry eyes in the audience.

THE NORMAL WON
Yesterdays Contest Defeat for the

Yesterdays baseball game between the Mesa High school team and that of the Normal was by all odds the best game that has been seen on the local diamond this season. It was good for several reasons. bat principal ly for the fact that the result was in doubt uo to the very last of the game
 The attendance was good, but it is to be regretted that the Normal has not some means of collecting from all who see the game. Those who have enough interest in the school to contribute a quarter can just as well see the game from the street and many take advantage Of this lack of facili- ties and do this very thing. which works hardship on the management from financial standpoint
 At yesterdays game Mesa was rep resented by a good turnout of sup porters. The Normal had its quota of rooters too and Phoenix turned out q

Great minds sometimes seek trivial

United States senator from Montana,
work diligently for 80 minutes in order
to have little fun at the expense of a
colored servant. 1t was on an over
land Northern Pacific train Carter,
sitting in the smoking apartment of
one of the coaches, wet the sides of
several boxes containing Pullman car
matches and rubbed on the sole of his
shoe the composition that ignites the
lucifers. Then he held up his foot for
quarter of an hour while the mixture
dried, after which he summoned Sam,
the colored porter, and asked him to
do some small service. While the
dark-hued servant was present Carter
tried to light one of the Pullman car
matches on his shoe.
"Yuh KANT do dat, Mars Carter;
sho yuh kain't," Sam expostulated
The senator protested that he could,
and Sam declared with ardor that such
a thing was not possible. The discus

senator calmly lit match on the sole

Safety pins and matches as a diet
for baby struck Nurse Aurelia Light
bourne of Rockville Center, L. l., as
pretty good stunt to get out of taking
care of it, according to reports which
have led to her arrest and confine-
ment in the Nassau county jail. The
child belonged to w. ]. Purdy, at
whose home Aurelia was employed.
Baby got sick and investigation
showed him to be full of safety pins,
dress pins, matches and other small
articles unsuited to a baby's tummy.
A further investigation led to the con-
fession by Nurse Aurelia that she had
dieted baby on the stuff so that he
would get sick, in which case she ex-
pected his mother to. care for him and
let her have a day off. Now nursie is
in Jail and baby is being relieved of
his prize collection by judicious dos
ing. When Aurelia longs for a day off
