AN ARIzONL AGENT
 GOES AFTER THOMPSON DEPUTY ADAMS LEFT THIS MORNING FOR DENVER. Armed With Acquisition Though the Prisoner Promised to Waive
 That Formality.

Deputy Sheriff Jeff Adams left this morning for Denver to bring back Frank Thompson who is charged with the embezzlement of $6000 worth of land scrip. the property Of General Manager E. Stenger of the Ray com pany, and President n. R. Jackling of the Utah Copper company.
 There had been some efforts looking to a compromise of the matter but when MT. Stenger arrived in town yes terday morning he saw nothing to compromise. Thompson was in jail and the chief of police of Denver was in possession of the scrip. He accord ingly insisted on the prosecution of Thompson and he swore out the war rant for his arrest which was issued by Justice Parker
 Since his apprehension last Satur- day Thompson has frequently stated that he would waive eXtradition; he said he was not afraid to return to Phoenix for he claimed to believe that he would be able easily to clear him self of the charge
 But notwithstanding his apparent
 
 cided to take no chances and yester- day afternoon a requisition upon the governor of Colorado for his extradi ton was procured.
 No reply had been sent to the chief of police at Denver to the telegram i'm forming the office of the sheriff of Thompsons arrest and it was surmis- ed that he might have been turned loose. But yesterday afternoon a tel egram was sent bringing the prompt reply that Thompson was still in jail and would be held until an agent from the territory arrived.
 William Robinson a cousin of Thompson. who left Phoenix with him was taken into custody at Denver at the same time but Thompson in his confession to the authorities at Denver exon erated him of any compliCity in the alleged crime Whether he is still held is not knewn but it is thought that the Denver officers would hardly turn him loose on Thompson's statement. He will likely be released on the arrival of Deputy Adams at Denver for he is not charged with any crime.
 Before leaving Phoenix, Thomspon withdrew from the bank the account of the firm of Hildreth and Thompson. about S3OOO. half of which of course was his He has not been formally ac- cused of the theft of the other half: he is being proceeded against only for taking the scrip

"RAWH|DE" PREDICTION
 WHICH MISSED THE MARK
Why Messrs. Jesunofsky and Buehler Got Wet.

Manager Buehler of the telephone company has lost faith in all things and in the weather bureau in par ticular. Its frailty was brought home to him on Sunday in particularly striking manner. Many people at one time and another have been misled by it's flags but a much worse thing than that happened to MT. Buehler.
 He received q proposition on Sun day morning from Observer Jesun- ofsky to go hunting. MT. Buehler is not a weather sharp but he thought he detected signs of rain and spoke to Mir. Jesunofsky about it. Mir. Jes- unofsky pooh poohed the idea of Tain. No rain for Phoenix today; not q drop today" said MT. Jesunofsky. waving his arms at the heavens as if that settled it. He spoke with the confidence of a man who had the rain securely locked up for the day. His confidence was infectious, and Mir Buehler caught it. He admitted that he knew more about telephones than about the clouds so that his first fears were groundless.
 The hunt ensued and everybody knows what happened in the Salt River valley about six o'clock in the evening. A good many people were caught in that awful downpour but Messrs. Jesunofsky and Buehler were a little wetter on their return to town than any of the other unfortunatcs
 MT Jesunofsky now gets out of it by saying that his prognostication was offered as that of a private citizen merely and not as an officer of the weather bureau. It was what is known among lawyers as a ''rawhide" or horseback opinion.

IA BUSY SESSION
 FOR THE SUPERVISORS
Among Other Things an Application For New Special Road District.

There was a multitude of matters
 before the board of supervisors yes terday. much of it of more than ordi- nary importance. but final action was , taken on little of it.
 There was a petition signed by for { ty-five residents of the country north west of Phoenix for the establishing ! of special road district of magnifi cent dimensions. It begins on the Grand canal on the eastern boundary , of the Ventral Avenue district. better known as road district No. 1. and runs to the Arizona canal. which 1t follows west to New river. It runs down that stream to it's junction with |, the Agua Fria. which it follows to a point midway in section 19. township 2 north, range 1 east The boundary runs east until it strikes the Grand canal. which 1t follows to the point Of beginning.
 The trustees of school district No. 1 were before the board with a re quest for more money Superintend- % ent Fulton had recommended a per capita appropriation of $500 which is an increase of $500 This would raise S46.135. The trustees wanted $5OOOO. which would require a per capita of s375O
 The board did not seem inclined to accede to the request on the ground that there will already be a decided increase in the levy this year which Chairman Hoghe said would proba- bly amount to S3.1O.
 The Buckeye school matter was again before the board At the re- quest of what seemed to be the unan- imous voice of all the people in two districts they were some time ago joined together by the order of the board. As soon as that action was taken a great deal of opposition be- gan to develop and finally this took the form of a request for the forming of a new district out of the joint district. It was pointed out that though that might be done it was too late for the board to apportion any money for the new district.

THE CHANGE OF BILL
 AT GRAND LAST NIGHT
"The Bishop Of Birmingham" Makes q Big Hit With Audience at the open- ing Production.

"The Bishop of Birmingham, as presented by the Raymond Teal Mu- sical Comedy company at the Grand theater last night. scored an instan- taneous hit and. judging by the man ner in which it was received by the good sized audience present. should prove fully as popular as Variety Isle" the opening attraction of the company.
 This weeks bill has a strong plot which is seldom lost sight of in the rapid action of the piece. It deals with the troubles of a much hen pecked husband who attends a prize fight with his prospective son-i law. The police raid the place and the two manage to make their escape at the expense of their wearing apparel. A travelling salesman who is also at the fight, compels the two to hide him in the home of the old man. Here he assumes the character of the bish- Op of Birmingham and the many ludicrous situations that follow keep the audience in roar of laughter When the real bishop arrives there is more fun.
 Cash Knight is seen in the role of Michael Finney. the man of many troubles. and makes the most of the part. William B. Friedlander. as the travelling salesman. assists materially in the fun getting. as does also Orvey Post, who plays the part of the pros peCtive son-in-law. Frank Morton. in the character of the real bishop. has not a great deal to do. but. neverthe less. contributes toward the success of the play Raymond Teal is seen in character part for the first time since the beginning Of the engagement of the company He appears in the role of Felix, negro servant, and pro vides plenty of fun.
 Nan Halperin makes a dainty and pleasing Ethel Finney. while the character work of Grace Wolf. as Ma tilda. pleases immensely. The other principals are good in their roles.
 This week the chorus is again doing good work throughout the action of the play a number of pretty and songs are introduced and all are handled in clever manner Among the best of the musical mum bers are Reed Bird" sung by Nan Halperin and chorus: I'd Like to Have a Girl Like You" by Orville Post: "Heinie." by Nan Halperin and chorus: "Everybody's With You When You Smile" by William F'riedlander and company. and Mandy Lou" by Evelyn Bunnin and chorus
 The Olio presented the Bunnin sis ters in singing sketch: Oracle Wolf in her dancing act which was an i'm mense hit. Harry Mclean was in troduced by Raymond Teal. and re ceived a big ovation. He thanked the audience for turning out. The benefit was a success but will be continued tonight owing to the fact that the threatening weather kept so many away At that the house was almost filled to it's capacity. The dasIce after the show was well at tended.

Il accepted the Chinese miesion at
his request and solely because OF as
surance that could be and would
be permitted 10 be of service to the
country in constructive work of the
greatest importance to it and OF the
greatet interest to me II has been
made perfectly clear that conditions
here were not and are not such as TO
make this possible. TO demonstrate
this IT mas involved a personal humil-
iation such as no self-respecting man
