The First Appearance
 Of the Dodge Company
"Nero, the Gladiator" Pleased a Good
 Sized House.

The first appearance of the Sanford Dodge company in Tempe at the Good win opera house on Thursday evening drew a good sized house and it was not long after the curtain went up that those who care for really good plays and good acting. realized that the company is one far above the av- craze in general ability. The play was Nero. the Gladiator" and was decid- edly different from the average attrac- tion presented. by companies that play towns of this size. MT. Dodge as Nero" was easily the star of the com pany but is fortunate in having with him company. the members of which are all good and are we'll suited to the parts they portray. Last evening the play was "Othello,' and tonight, as stated more in detail elsewhere, the play will be Faust"
 Yesterday morning at the opening exercises of the Normal school, MT Dodge addressed the student body He spoke briefly on Shakespeare and gave several selections from Julius Cea- sar" He was given the closest atten- ton and his visit to the school was much appreciated by the students.

interesting one Faust" In it Mir. Dodge, who plays the part of Mephisto presents the character perhaps differ ently than it has been seen before by some.
 Although the role of Mephisto is somethimes flippant nearly always cynical and often repellant yet with all MT Dodge feels the deep responsi- blity of the lesson he must exem- plify and through all his work there is a note of seriousness and a sense of the burden that is in his attempting to represent she almost infinite pow CTS of evil which can only be over come by the mightier power. the pow CT of good or God as is represented by the church. Mir. Dodge gives the role a dignity of seriousness of purpose which crowns Mephisto with a maJes- ty in keeping with his position as king of evil.

Howe t. CorSon Jr. Claimed By Death
THE END CAME EARLY YESTER-
 DAY MORNING.
The Funeral Will be Held at O'clock
 Today.

Howe C. Corson Jr., died yesterday morning at an early hour at his home on East Seventh street. Though not entirely unexpected. his death yester day cast a shadow of gloom over the vicinity and words of sympathy are heard on all sides for his surviving wife and baby daughter and his par ents and sister.
 Mir. Corson has been in i'll health for a long time but it was not until last October that he was obliged to give up his work. From that date until the end he suffered q gradual decline. His condition. however. was such that up to ten days ago he was not obliged to take to his bed and until that time he was able to be about. Long since. all hope of his recovery was given up; it was known to the mother of his family that it was merely a question of time. Thursday evening he did not appear any worse than usual and it was thought he might yet survive sev- eral weeks. The end came about two o'clock yesterday morning and he passed away peacefully in his sleep.
 The funeral will be held this after
  the Craig place, on East Seventh street at two o'clock. Rev. B. H. Cocks of Phoenix will officiate and the inter ment will be in the Double Butte cem- etery.
 The deceased was the only surviv ing son of Mir. and Mrs. H. G. Cor son. He was born in Ouray. Colo, on October 12, 1882, making his age at the time of death. 27 years.
 In his early boyhood he evidenced a great interest in the printing busi- ness and was a competent printer at the age of Is. At that time he went to Lockport. x. Y. where he further followed the business of printing and became linotype operator. For some years he worked on different papers in New York, Lockport and Niagara Falls. but his speciality was fine job work.
 In 1906 he came to Arizona and for a short time was employed on the different Phoenix papers. He then went to Bisbee and Douglas and just year ago accepted the position of foreman on the Mesa Free Press. He remained there in that capacity until forced to give up the work by i'll health last October
 It was while in Mesa that he was married to Miss Griffen of that place He and his wife then moved to Tempe where they have since resided.
 Howe was a genial character and a man who made friends easily: He was well liked wherever he was known and his death is the cause of much real sorrow both here and in Mesa where he is better known than elsewhere in the territory.
