sLossoMsr LAST NIGHT

"Orange Blossoms" or something akin to it, were presented by the Mar
 guerite Favar company at the Mesa opera house last night to a fairly well filled house. The actual presentation of a play of regulation length was not anticipated and in this the theater- goers were not surprised. The enter tainment was of the light, breezy sort. calculated to drive dull cares from the mind and remind one of springtime and handsprings. The Garrett brothers, in their trick piano stunt, and George Colvin. buck and wing dancer. were features of the evening. The company will hold the boards at Mesa tonight with an entire change of program.

Naples, April S.-(Special) )-Thousands of American residents and tourists In Italy are hastening to Naples, determined to see former President Roosevelt. Trains from Rome, Milan, Pisa and Genoa are thronged with Italian excursionists A prominent Italian expressed the feeling of the Italian people when he said to me: '"The Italians wish to make the dock a bed of roses to show their apprecia- ton for what MT. Roosevelt ras done to aid us.''
 There will be little opportunity for the people to express their admiration, how ever, as the police arrangements will be of the strictest character.
 I have just returned from an interview with Commander Castaldi, prefect of po- lice, where in addition to presenting my credentials l was obliged to secure a letter from American Counsul Crownin- shield and be r$tsonally identified by a noted Neapolit ka before being granted written permi<sion to enter the police lines Castaldi said to me:
 While 1 have no reason to fear the slightest attempt to harm MT. Roose- welt. because the Italian people love and admire him to their highest degree, yet I am leaving nothing to chance and talk ing such precautions as will preclude the possibility of accident"

SHERIFF AND HIS
 MEN KIDNAPPED

Paducah. Ky, April 3.-(Special )-When Sheriff Bishop and Deputy Sheriff Cham pion of Livingston county, Kentucky, boarded the steamer Liberty at Smith land this afternoon to allow Capt Harry Davis to execute bond, they were kid naped and carried down the river to the Illinois shore, opposite Paducah, where the Kentucky officers had no jurisdiction.
 Captain Davis was arrested when the boat landed at Smithland on the charge that liquor had been sold aboard the boat recently while 1t was landed there. He was fined $50 and asked the officers to accompany him to the boat so he could execute bond. When they reached the cabin the boat pulled out. The deputy took the wheel and in trying to guide the boat to the Kentucky short the tiller rope was either broken or cut The boat finally landed on the Illinois shore opposite where serious trouble was threatened between the crew and the Kentucky officers, who were then out of their jurisdiction. Both sides had pistols. When the sheriff went in the engine room two shots were fired outside and he got out. Later the officers returned to the Kentucky side.

But the republican side defe tied the dem ocrats' design to put the majority party in the house on record now, so as to de- feat the republican St. Louis municipal election next Tuesday The democratic members of the committee, 1t deN eloped after the confusion had died away, de- sired to submit a minority report, recom- mending that the amendment do pass, thus committing themselves to statewide prohibition.

The pas sengers will be immediately segregated from the Roosevelt party. Passengers proceeding to Genoa will require written permission to go ashore. The other pas sengers will be landed at Naples before the Roosevelt party.
 The docks will be surrounded by 200 policemen. A strong force of detectives will be stationed inside and outside. No body will be admitted within the police lines without pass personally signed by Commander Castaldi.
 ''It is due the frendliness of Italy for America" continued Commander Castaldi. "that MT. Roosevelt arrives and departs from Naples without mishap. Should MT. Roosevela decide to come ashore, wher- ever he goes he will be attended by q corps of armed detectives in motors"
 The Duke of Aostas dinner, planned for Sunday, will possibly be given on Monday, provided the steamship company delays the Admiral's sailing until mid night. Consul Crowninsheld has planned a reception for Monday at which will be exhibited slides taken during the Messina earthquake.
 The delay in the Hamburg's arrival has upset all arrangements Everything is now chaotic except the extraordinary po- ice precautions.
