Conditions are not unfavorable, but
they are admittedly less favorable in

DIVERSION DEMANDED
 FOR SUMMER EVENINGS
Clever and Interesting Programs at Airdome Fill Popular Demand and Guarantee Large Audiences at Pop ular Playhouse.

That the people of Phoenix want to be amused and desire some at traction that will help them to pass the warm evenings and momentarily to forget the monotonous heat of our long summer was evidenced last even ing after the first few warm days and nights of our beginning summer sea- son. The open air theaters were crowded to their fullest seating capac- ity while the court house plaza was filled by those who preferred to be entertained by band music rather than to listen to light comedy. However the devotees of comedy, orchestra mu- sic and pictures, were out in such numbers that many could not be ac- commodated and were compelled to be take their diversion by listening to the first evening concert of the h. dustrial Liberty band.
 All evening the AirdOme theater was crowded and the entrance and the street outside were thronged by those anxious to get in. The bill was new one the feature being the farce comedy, "Minerva's Maneuvers," pre- sented by the members of the West Howell and the Elliot -Fassett com panies. The audience was kept in roar of laughter throughout the whole sketch, which was well designed to touch the funny place of all those to whom humor makes appeal, and which was very cleverly acted by the mem bers of the vaudeville companies. In addition to the comedy sketch, the usual pictures were shown. A new one, ''The Star of Bethlehem" was one of the finest films ever shown in this city. The coming of warm weath- CT, together with the high class of attractions which have been, and are now being offered by the Airdome management, will combine to make that popular playhouse a favorite re- sort of those Phoenicians who spend he heated season at home and will in sure the management crowds which will test the seating capacity for ev- cry show.

THE NEW GOVERNOR
 SUITS MR. ST0DDARD
The Latter's Confidence in the Early Admission Of Arizona.

Hon. Isaac T. Stoddard returned yes terday morning from Washington. Though he was understood to be an active candidate for governor, he joins in the qualification of all Arizonians in the appointment of Judge Sloan.
 At the time of his arrival in Wash ington, Mir. Stoddard was only a re- captive candidate for the appointment, urging no claim except in the event that there was to be no reappointment of Governor Kibbey.
 As matters turned out afterward. he got into the field. and is now glad of it, for his candidacy developed friends and supporters in Arizona, the east, and in high official life in Washington, whose efforts in his behalf were very gratifying. The desire of the presi- dent. however, that on the eve of state hood the governor should be an able lawyer brought about the appointment of Judge Sloan.
 As to statehood, MT. Stoddard said last night, nothing that has not yet come to pass is more certain than the admission of the territory early In the next session of congress It is the set tied purpose of the president to bring admission about, and every member of the cabinet is heartily in favor of it. Mir Stoddard talked with the leading eastern senators and representatives, and found no opposition that will like ly be embarrassing. Senator Root told him that a statehood bill would have his earnest support, and Senator Nor gan G. Bulkeley, who has always op- posed statehood. indicated his purpose to support the bill.
