CHANGE IN MANAGEMENT IN THE VANCE AIRDOME MIR. VANCE QUITS THE SHOW
 BUSINESS. The Amusement Place to Be Known as
 the Pastime.

The Vance Airdome has ceased to be. Henceforth in the future it will be known as the Pastime and will be op- erated by the firm of Lapham X Dono- van. This is due to the fact that MessrS. Lapham and Donovan, who for a short time have been associated with MT. Vance in the management of the amusement place. have purchased the latters interest in the venture and have taken a long time lease on the play house here as well as on the Vance auditorium in Mesa. The two gentlemen are now negotiating with William Goodwin, manager and owner of the Goodwin opera house, for simi- lar lease on his building, their idea be- ing to continue the Pastime until cool CT weather and then use the opera house for the winter. It is a little toe early to say whether or not such ar agreement will be made, but it is en- tirely possible.
 The new management announces ar entire change of pictures and vaude- vile for next week, beginning tomoro- row night with pictures and being fol lowed Wednesday, Friday ani Satur- day evening by both pictures and vau- deVille acts.

RAILROAD BUILDING IN ASIATIC
 TURKEY.

tt is stated that plans which call for the investment of from S6O,00O,OOO to $100.000,000 have practically been completed by a New York syndicate for the railroad development of Asiatic Turkey. The enterprise is designed to open up the mineral and oil lands of the Kurdstan and the Tigris and Euphrates valleys. The projected trunk line will run from Sivas to the Gulf of AleXandretta. a distance of 1243 miles. Terms of the agreement by which the syndicate is admitted to the Turkish field is that the prop erty be vested in the Turkish cor poration to whose stock Ottoman sub jects will be given the right to sub scribe to 90 per cent. The Turkish government reserves the right to buy up the road after thirty years by making annual payments based on net earnings. A valuable mining con cession is to be a part of the agree ment.
 Among other developments in the Eastern railway world is an extension of the Mediterranean-Persia Gulf line which will carry it clear through Persia anw Baluchistan to India. giv- ing a direct connection between Paris and ta.-Bradstreet's.

MESA DEPAR7MEM1
4 SUNDAY SCHOOL
 ENTERTAINMENT
An Excellent Program Before Large
 Crowd at Leh.

The Lehi hall was packed to the linn 1 it Thursday evening when the enter i tainment given under the auspices Of. the parents class of the Sunday school
 was present. Although the admission price was exceedingly low there was so large a crowd in attendance that
 that the sum realized amounted to a neat little sum. There was no an
 nouncing of the program, each person
 knowing his turn and performing with
 an ease that told of careful training
 and much practice. MT. and Mrs Ellis
 Johnson are to be congratulated, for 1t
 was under their direction that the af-'
 fair was given. D. r. Jones delivered
 the invocation opening the exercises
 and was followed by Frank Shill, who
 sang nicely. Miss Carrie Sanders gave
 a well rendered bit of verse, and then
 Scott Shill sang, also in good voice. A
 mixed quartette of ten voices added
 appreciably to the program, and Mrs
 Elijah Allen gave The District School
 Master in a most pleasing manner Don Rorkrock sang Don't Take Me Home" with much animation, and Grant Merrill also rendered Just Someone" in acceptable style. The quartet then sang Come to Me and was followed by Bonnie Merrill who recited How People Come to Church. Priscilla Nelson sang Where the Ivy Vines Grow Beside the Door" and Milo Shin The Murder of Leadville | in his usual excellent manner. The quartet sang again and the function closed with a benedictiOn by Harvey | Harper But the most interesting num-
 Der on the program was the cowboy song Seven little boys with chaps spurs, bandanas, pistols and full re- gaIia marched out to the music, hand
 on each others shoulder and stood al attention, turning and marching in perfect time to the singnals given ! They sang a real wild and woody west | cowboy song and simply took the
 house. It was probably the best thing | of the evening. The young men who 1 participated in this were Warren John son. Marion and Roger Clifford, Fred | die Riggs, Rulon Rogers, Hugh Jones and Ellis Johnson, Jr

CALLED ID COAST
 BY MOTHERS DEATH
A Telegram Brought the Unexpected
 News.

sam Brown received a telegram late Friday afternoon conveying the sad in formation that his mother had died suddenly in Los Angeles shortly after noon. MT. and Mrs. Brown left on the evening train Friday night for Los An geles to attend the funeral. MT. Brown expects to be back early in the week. while Mrs. Brown may remain longer. During MT. Browns absence, the Tempe Hardward company will look after the city water system and attend to any breaks or other accidents.
 No particulars of Mrs. Browns death were contained in the telegram but as she was well advanced in years, being over 70, and had been troubled recently with heart failure, it is pre- sumed that her death was result of d combination of these two. The fact that the last letter from here gave no intimation of her failing health, made the shock of the telegram even greater than it would otherwise have been.

ENTHUSIASTIC
 REPUBLICANS \ Profitable Meeting Of
 Club Friday Night SOCIAL AND POLITICAL In Nature, the Meeting Was Huge Success. Several Prominen t Phoenix Re publicans Were Present and Spoke
SOCIAL AND POLITICAL

There was an enthusiastic meeting of the Tempe Republican club Friday evening at the odd Fellows hall with a good attendance present. In addition to the Tempe republicans who were at the meeting there were several promin- ent Phoenix republicans on hand among them James II. McClintock, H. P. Hays and Attorney H. E. Wilkinson. IL was expected too that J. F. Cleave- land would be present, but he was un- avoidably detained.
 The meeting was called to order by Chairman Stewart and after the trans action of a small amount of business there were short talks by the visitors and local members of the club. Of the visitors, MT. Wilkinson was the first speaker. He did not cOnfine himself to any particular subject but spoke in generalities, though as was tO be eX- pected. most of his remarks had to do more less with the republican side of the present campaign.
 He was followed by Colonel Me Clintock It was his opinion that the the initiative and referendum but state IOOu. llldl Slpulu Dt NOllSlutitO fore all else. After that is once se- cured these other features of govern ment can be secured if majority of the people of the new state appear to want them. Right at this time. though, said he, when the opportunity for statehood is offered it is the funda- mental and not the experimental things that should be considered. He spoke of his personal acquaintance and contact with congressman who are only waiting for a chance to turn Ari- zona down again and who gave it this opportunity to secure statehood reluct- antly It was the speakers opinion that in this election nothing should be done that will in any way lessen the territory's chances of securing statehood.
 MT. Hays in his address made an ex- cellent impresson on his hearers and convinced them that he knew exactly what he was talking about. He con sidered chiefly the constitutiOnality of the particular issue this year and ex- plained it in a very clear and lucid manner He took up various phases of the question and cleared a good many minds that perhaps were a trifle clouded Many of his points were clinched with a good humorous story.
 The meeting was as much of sue cess in a social way as it was in po- litical way A box of cigars vas kept on tap and the evening was spent pleasantly and profitably by all who were present.
 The Phoenix gentlemen came over on the & o'clock train and were met at the depot by R. J. Schweppe with his machine. At the conclusion of the club meeting they drove back to Phoenix There will be another meeting of the club

ARRESTED UPON X
 DEPuTY's REQUEST

Constable Estrada received a tele- gram yesterday morning from Deputy Sheriff A. l.. Campbell at Kelvin, re- questiug the arrest of George Jackson who was supposed to be somewhere Tn Tempe The constable forthwith got busy and very promptly located his man. He placed him under arrest and locked him up in jail for safe keeping He then notified MT. Campbell by wire of the arrest and expected the deputy here on the afternoon train. He failed to arrive, however, and Jackson VIII of necessity be obliged to remain III jail until he does arrive, probably on this afternoons train.
 The telegram offered no reason fol the arrest of MT. Jackson and the par ty himself offered no information as to why his arrest should be so much desired. The particulars will probably not be learned until the arrival of the deputy sheriff.

Smith was given the best of it for the reason that the fight was forced upon him py Ballestero, who insulted him repeated ly until Smith was finally obliged to quiet him by knocking him down But for the fact that he lost his temper and kicked Dolores in the fact after flooring him, he probably would not have been arrested.
