SAVOY PRESENTS
A COHAN COMEDY
"Forty=five Minutes From
Broadway" Will Be Attrac-
ton for One Week

One OF the best companies sent on the
road this season is that of Cohan &
Harris, who will present Forty five
Minutes From Broadway" at the new
Savoy theater for one week beginning
tonight
This is George NJ. Cohan's original
play with music and is one of the best
pieces the young playwright-prod
composer has ever done.
.Forty-hve Minutes From Broadway
is in three acts, all of the scenes of
which are laid in New Rochelle.
While in no sense is 1t a musical
comedy, the music play introduces
some of the most popular music ever
whistled or sung. Here are the titles
of some Of the song numbers: Mary
Is a Grand Old Name" Il Want to Be
Popular Millionaire" so Long,
Mary" and many others.
Charley Brown is the Kid Burns of
the piece, and Elizabeth Drew the
Maru. Others in the big cast are:
Ninon Ristori, Louise Gardner. Susan
Chisnell. Joseph Kaufman, May New
man, James Manning. James A. Davett,
Harry Gwynette, Roger Hurst. as well
as a clever singing and dancing con-
tingent.
Cohan followed no set lines in the
writing of "Forty-five Minutes From
Broadway" but departed radically
from conventional lines by combining
most effectively drama, comedy, farce,
melodrama and music, with the result
OF achieving an entertainment as in
teresting and enjoyable as it is unique
and original.
There viii be a professional matinee
next Thursday and the farewell per-
formance will be given Christmas
night Ezra Kendall in The Vinegar
Buyer follows at Cort's pretty play
house.

Twenty years in the penitentiary for each man was the sentence dealt out by the court. Early in the week Cur. ley and SqIall were found guilty Of murder in the second degree. AL though they were tried separately aud Judge Campbell took precautions against any influence the result of the first case might have on the second, the verdicts were alike the penalties imposed by the court yesterday were the same.
 On Monday, the United States grand jury will report at g o'clock. Follow Ing the empaleling of that body, one of the embezzlement cases against R. D. DooddeH will begin. The trial jury has been excused until Monday at 1O:3O o'clock

 Next National Issues.
 "Mr. Bryan, what do you consider vii likely be the big issues at the next presidential campaign?" At present. the tariff question Is more discussed than any national question but no one can say in ad- vance what issue may appear to d. vide attention with the tariff.
 The President has endorsed the central bank idea and the ship sub lsidy and take it for granted from Wickersham's Kansas City speech. he favors national corporations.
 If these measures are pushed they may arouse so much opposition as to become important factors in the next campaign" Asked for his opinion regarding the results of the New York municipal election. MT. Bryan replied: q know Judge Gaynor personally and believe he will make an excellent mayor. l
 shoud be disappointed if he does not make splendid record in office. He is constitutionally opposed to graft and the exploitation of the public. And his administration will, believe, prove an example"
 Mir. Bryan declned absolutely to comment on the campaign which wil- liam Randolph Hearst made but from the tone in which he announced that he would not discuss Hearst it was easy to note that there is lacking d Damon and Pythias friendship be: twen these two Democrats, both of whom have been repeatedly and prob ably will continue to be before the limelight as Democratic standard bearers.

 HURT AT HOLBROOK

James Wilson miner employed at the Holbrook was struck upon the head yesterday by a. falling boulde.'. and stunned, being unconscious until far into the night. It is thought pos sible that his skull is fractured in which event his injuries may prove fatal.
 Wilson was taken from the mine to the Copper Queen dispensary where his wounds were dressed The concrs- sion of the brain which caused uncon- sciousness was also bar to deter mining the exact extent of his hurts. He was taken from the dispensary to the hospital of the company where -hc Is at present.

DESPONDENCE IS REASON FUR
 SUICIDE

Financial reyerses and subsequent despondency cla:med victim last night, when Kit" Nelson, about 40 years of age well known miner em. pioyed at the c. & A. mine. with a fl colt revolver. shot himself in the head shortly before s o'clock at his home on 0 K Trail. while members of his family were in the next room unaware that anything was wrong.
 About o'clock Nelson was down. town and talked with several friends on Brewery Gulch. He seemed in the best of spirits when he started to go home. Upon arriving there he went directly to his room without speaking to members of the family.
 A few minutes later shot rang out and when people rushed into the room his dead body weltering in blood, lay stretched at full length upon the bed. He had evidently taken this position before firing the fatal shot.
 The bullet entered the right side of the head and still remains imbedded in the brain. The revolver was nred with the right hand. Dr. M. D. Co hen was summoned but as death was instantaneous his services were not required.
 The body was partially disrobed, as though he had started to retire. His coat and shoes were off and he had evidently begun to remove his trousers when seized with the desire to end his life.
 The remains were taken to the Pal ace Undertaking establishment. Cor oner High impaneled jury, which will hold an inquest this afternoon.
 Nelson, employed by the C. & A. company was well known among miners and business men as well. He is survived by a widow and d step son, who came here recently from California and was at the house at the time of the tragedy. Mrs. Nelson is completely prostrated by the affair and was hysterical the greater part Of the night No funeral arrangements have yet been made.
 Aside from financial difficulties, nc reason can be given by Nelson s friends for his act. He held con ference with Justice High yesterday morning over money matters, bill which he owed in Hachita, and which he arranged through Justice High te settle seemingly doing it cheerhlly Other reverses, however, he is alsl said to have suffered recently whica doubtless brought on fit of despond ency that prompted the suicide.

DROPPED FOUR HUNDRED FEET
 YET LIVES

Few men drop four hundred feet in runaway cage and survive to tell their friends how it felt. Pat Sullivan, however, Is the lucky ex- ception, for he took the awful fall from the HOO to the 1900 level at the Hoatson shaft Monday and not alone survived. but can exhibit no injuries beyond a slight abrasion on his left hand and a few small bruises.
 Sullivan, who is employed as a eager, was descending to one of the lower levels of the shaft when the clutch upon the hoist broke and the engineer, unable to control the mech anism of the drum, watched 1t unroll, ing the cable with lightning like rap idity, as the cage dropped like shot toward the stump. Sullivan, accord ing to his story, was doing a little thinking himself. With an instinctive movement he grasped a bar under the hood of the cage, on the second deck of which he stood and lifted his feet from the floor. With jolt and jar the cage struck the stump, but beyond a pain in his left hand and a severe shaking up, Sullivan remained entire ly uninjured.
 A quick descent was made by men who had seen him dropping, to what they considered certain death, down the shaft. The hood of the cage was removed and-out stepped Sullivan.
 His escape was entirely due to sew eral feet of water which cushioned his fall into the stump, and to being upon the second instead of the lower deck of the cage. as he would have certainly been drowned before rescue had reached him.

MERCHANTS K|Ck UPON POLICE
 CHANGE

Local business men are of the opin- ion that the city council could cut down expenses in other ways than retiring one policeman from the force. They think that one man is entirely insufficient to look after the entire town at night, which would be the proposition if an officer is remved.
 The Main street merchants, especi- ally, are expressing their disapprval, owing to the fact that they are afraid the duties of the night policeman will keep him on Brewery Gulch to such an extent that their district will re, main practically unprotected, save for the services of Officer Jay Wilmoth, of the Merchants patrol
 Many of them suggest that the coun- cil cut down on the street sprinkling proposition instead of removing an of ficer. They figure that more could be saved by this method than the one proposed, by letting each merchant water the street in front of his place of business and keep it watered, there by doing away with a sprinkling cart.
 They also disapprove of the lighting of the gooseneck lights in Subway al ley, claiming that the business DOT tions of the town, in many places, have not sufficient light and think the lamps should be distributed about where more urgently needed.
 It is probable that some form of protest will be made at the regular meeting of the council in December.

RANGER FORGE
 STANDS NJ CHANCE

Recently, Harry Wheeler. former captain of the Arizona rangers. made the statement that many of the dem ocratic members of the last legisa- ture have expressed regrets that they voted to abolish the rangers, and that if they had to cast their votes over again they would vote to keep the rangers.
 To determine just how much truth there might be in Wheeler's asser- tion, the ten democrats of the coun- cil were asked if they would again vote to abolish the rangers, and here are their replies:
 James B. Finley, Pima and Santa Cruz-"Am well satisfied with my vote on the ranger bill Would oppose reinstatement"
 Keene St. Charles. Mohaye-''No." "
 George W. P. Hunt Gila-.I voted in the 24th to abolish rangers; also in the 18th. To reinstate the rangers would be a useless expense to the territory"

Inquest Into
Girls Death
Tomorrow
Inquiry Into Drowning of
Miss Cuvreau to Be
Held in Superior
Court Room

Coroner G.. d. Shaver said today
that he would hold an inquest over
the body of the late Miss Margaret
Cuvrean tomorrow morning al
$40, and at that time the circum.
stances leading up to her death
by drowning last Sunday after
noon will be thoroughly investi-
gated.
John Flynn, the young man who
was out with Miss Cuvrean In q
boat when the accident occurred
was last evening permitted to
leave the police station and go to
his home, with the understanding
that he would be on hand when
the inquest was eld. Flynn was
closely questioned yesterday and
maintained the drowning was pure
ly accidental. The inquest will be
held in department 1 of the SUI
perior court.
Coroner Shaver and DIR. B. II.
Foreman made a post mortem ex-
animation on the remains last
nigh. A large clot of blood was
found between the scalp and skull
on the crown of the head and the
face shows the effects of severe
beating, which Flynn frankly adj
mits. he gave her to prevent her
from dragging her down with him.
The post mortem showed, how
ever, that death was due to water
on the lungs and not to the blows.
