 A prospective basketball game is being arranged for during fair week, the boys team with Phoenix High school, and one for the girls with Tempe Normal.

\ RAILR0ADER H|TCHEs UP
Attaching Mere Horses to Blackboard May Be Fraught With Excitement
 and worry-Off Right of Way.

" SS "AtA hAS bhtsthNS tON8to ukah and beast, and when he suddenly shifts his environment and avoca- ton precipitately, his mental pro- cess ofttimes precludes that clear ness of insight for which he may have been noted previously. All of which is merely to say that when a railroad man tangles up with a team and harness, he has much to be excused for. Also a railroad man is usually very much attached to the right of way, and when he accidentally or otherwise mali ciously breaks across the line, the surrounding country takes on a new and varied aspect bewildering to one who has always noted the two slim, shiny snakes of steel pointing out the way ahead.
 MT. Elmer Duffield, who so loves the click, clink and chuck of the wheels going over the rails that he was made trainmaster of this divis- ion, sought seclusion and deer in the wild fastness of the mountains adjacent to Flagstaff, and secured a temporary lease of team, har- ness and blackboard recently, with which utensils of locomotion he in- tended to convey himself and a conductor named Ferguson, ac- companied by two other railroad Tookers, to the aforesaid wild fast nesses.
 MT. Dufield, in handling his To- comotive power and in endeavor- ing to get up steam, backed one of the equines in on the switch and signalled the other to come ahead from the roundhouse, or barn. When he had spotted both quad rupeds on a siding where it appear ed best adapted to annexing them to the train of entourage, he pro- ceeded to scatter straps, couplings and equipment over the aforesaid equines or mere horses. In his endeavor to get the cruper over one horses front leg, and cinch his hind feet to the whiffietree with the girth, or what has been com monly termed "bellyband," he found that the tongue, pole or draw-bar to the blackboard stuck too far out in front and the collars seemed too loose to fit around the horses tails or caudel appendages. In attempting to put the neckyoke underneath their fore legs, that the rear equipment could better help to force the horses down hill, he found it was necessary to unloose the rivets in the breast straps and shorten the links or tugs. This naturally delayed the "high-ball" signal for an hour or more.
 
 In passing out of our beautiful city, to which all visitors are most welcome, they endeavored to foi- low the Flagstaff Lumber Manu- featuring company's logging road, believing that such familiar signs | would keep them within certain ] longitude, but in rounding a curve they missed switch and were off | the right of way. The logging | crew, who, we are advised, use a | very similar language, informed them in their own dialect, accom- panied by waive sounds and mo- tions, that Mormon Lake had not been moved lately, and that by | steering a course to the starboard, with a judicious use of the quirt blower, they could move Mormon mountain toward them.
 Since they expect to remain |

fans viii have the opportunity Of seeing
a comedy that is particularly near to the
hearts Of the people OF Washington, as
1t deals with the experiences OF the army
of government employees who are to be
found here. 1t was written only after
years of study of the situation by Chan
ming Pollock, who, as a local newspaper
man. had unusual opportunities to OBJ
tain a knowledge Of the subject AS the
unassuming girl whose love is q sacred

as the original Anna Grey, and beside
her in the other feminine roles viii be
Phyllis Sherwood. as the landlady' 5
daughter. EmeHe Melville as the land
lady. Florence Huntington, az Mrs.
Graham. and Grace Sherwood, as Miss
Wadleigh. AS the Secret Service man,
Samuel Meade Paul McAllister will have

Actors, Field Dav

On August 10, at the Polo Grounds, the
great and the near great will assemble to
aid the Actors Fund of America. Di-
rectors Cohan and Harris have hit upon
the tournament of Ashby Go la Zouche as
the model for their entertainment
The matinee idols will ride in medieval
splendor on prancing Arabian steeds to
joust for the honor of choosing the Queen
of Love and Beauty. The names of the
Disinherited Knight and the Black Slug
gard have not yet been published; but
It Is understood that Jack Johnson will
net assume the latter role.
Further events that were unknown in
the day of WiIfred of Ivanhoe will be
added by way of spice. Two ball games.
one between actors and managers, the
other between prima donnas and SOU
brettes, will further eniiven the day
Moving pictures of the latter game viii
doubtless be barred from all American
cities on the ground of brutality. Some
OF the girls from the Follies OF 1910 will
be In the swim, and Annette Kellerman
VIII krinkle the spectators hair by high
diving feats. Elephants by land and aero
planes by air will be available for trans
portation. IN a grand pageant, all the
participants will display their charms.

any demand in that country for Shake

says, is an endowed repertory theater. Il
should be small, she insists. else will the
finer shades Of psychological drama get
lost in the wings; 1t must be small too,
because 1t is of the essence that it should

thrift and without the vulgar expenditure
on dresses" and decor which character
lie the regular theaters. Within It's walls
neither society mannequins nor their
masters. the milliners. would. it is TO be
feared, find inspiration for their sartorial
arts. Simplicity would be the keynote
of the Repertory Theater, passionate
faith in its ultimate destiny would be it's
driving force. Endowed 1t would have ITO

shows from October to May, and the
public would be relieved from the strain
OF having to listen TO what friend FL
bert Hubbard calls "belliaking' from
one years end to the other.
The only possible quarter in which dis
advantage might accrue would be in the
syndicate booking Office. Possibly fees
would decline IN the aggregate, and
therein. possibly. lies the meat OF the
whole matter A mere booking agency
ought not 10 be permitted to dominate
the arts Of acting and the playwriting in
the United states.
The contending factions would better
take care lest they kill the goose that
lays the golden egg.
