Dawson's Administration.

The greatest development that
West Virginia has ever known. came
under Governor Dawson's admins
tration, and 1t was indeed fortunate
that the state had for its chief exec
utiye, a student of Industrial condl-
tons, and a man of strong convic-
tions to direct the course of the ship
of state in the trying times just
past. 1t should be acknowledged by
even those who were antagonistic to
the policies of Governor Dawson,
that his interest was at all times
unpersonal, and were the same con-
ditions again to arise, they are few
who would recommend a course DIFF
ferent from that followed by the

 AIRDOME AUDIENCE

May Boley. who has just left long engagement with the Princess musical comedy stock company. of the Prin- cess theater. San Francisco. for an other season in vaudeville, appeared for the first time in Phoenix at the Airdome last evening. To say that she pleased her audience would be tame tame comment. She threw the packed house into a seance of delight and held it there with her beauty, wonderful voice. and clever wit
 Her Parisian gowns, are the most stunning seen in Phoenix since last fall And she has a goodly number of them, a change for every performance. And she knows how to dress. Her stage attire Is not startling. gaudy, or blase. but bewitching. attractive. and simple. For May Boley knows that she needs no artificial touch to make her charming She Is really pretty just as Miss Simplicity. Her beauty is one of the avenues by which she has won international fame in vaude- vile
 Her very appearance proves her an artist, not made but born so. Her i'm presentations show wonderful insight into the ways. oddities. and peculiar ities of the human being She has a fine sense of humOr. she sees the fun ny side of life, and what's better, knows how to present her observations to the audience naturally and truth fully.
