 The rooming house is a three-story house. About o'clock yesterday morning a shot was fired on the sec. ond floor. When the two officers ar. rived the house was in state of commotion and Black. who is said to have fired the shot, was desperately angry. It was said by officers that Black had shot at an intruder, but it is understood that Black denies this.

Henry Ashurst had a day and a night of rest in his campaign yester day and last night and took full ad 5antage of the opportunity to rest his vocal powers which, though iD good condition, feel the strain of the campaign he made for the senatorial nomination and must be held in suffi cient reserve for all of the speaking that is entailed by the campaign for election, which he has already be. gun.

BELIEVED DEAD, HE
 IS VERY MUCH ALIVE
Tex Edwards Reported Killed at Agua Prieta Is
 Now in BiSbee

It was as if the grave had opened or a ghost were walking the streets Of Bisbee when friends of Tex E. Edwards met him yesterday, for he had been reported as killed and was believed by practically all who knew him to be dead. Yet it was very much alive that Tex Edwards was found to be. IL was no ghost that clasped friends by the hands and ex- changed greetings with them. Then explanations became necessary and Edwards found that it was up to him to show his friends not only that he was very much alive but that he had never been dead. no matter what they had heard to the contrary.
 And the cause of Edwards expert ence and that of his friends dates back to last spring. back to the last fight at Agua Prieta, when he was reported to have been killed, and since then he has never denied the state ment that was published in the pa pers of Arizona to that effect. The story that was accepted at that time was to the effect that Edwards was captured by the federals and after wards shot. There was also a story of the escape of a prisoner and 1t turns out that the prisoner who made his getaway and whose name was never learned was none other than Tex Edwards. Since then he has been to Mexico City and has been at- tached to the body guard of Francisco l. Madero.
 Edwards states that he reaped a financial reward from his services to the Mexican insurgent forces and this enabled him to return to Tombstone and pay on mortgage on the home of his father and mother. His father is we'll known all through the coun- ". having once been sheriff Ed. wards says that the federals at Agua Prieta concentrated their fire upon himself and his men and captured him. That he afterwards made his escape; how. he does not say, and went to Mexico City.
 Tex Edwards has had a varied ca reer. He was in Bucby O'Neills com. pany in the Rough Riders. Later he was an Arizona ranger and left to go to Nicaragua after the shooting of Cannon. Returning, he enlisted with the insGrrectos and fought at Casa Grande and Agua Prieta. Tn the recent revolution he obtained the rank of cartain. He has a number of interesting souvenirs and more in teTesting stories of his adventures during the Mexican troubles. Of the souvenirs he gave John TwOmey a match box bearing the name of W. B. Martinez, which he took from the pocket of dead federal captain after the battle of sAgua Prieta.

War is that condition which is brought about when the eminent statesmen of one nation cannot agree with the eminent statesmen Of an other nation. To settle the disagree ment it becomes necessary 10 send men who know nothing of the diplo. matic angles of the matter 10 shoot al one another. Many are killed and many more are wounded. and eventu. ally the var is over. with one side or the other victorious. And the eminent statesmen--how many of them are slain and wounded.

Mask and Wig Club.

The twenty-third annual offering Of
the Mask and Wig Club. Of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania. entitled THE In
nocent," will be presented at the Belasco
Theater tomorrow evening. This years
play was written by Warren F. Martin
and Charles, s. Morgan jr.. and is one
Of the most elaborate productions the
Pennsylvania organization has ever at
tempted.
Incidental to the second act will be
a travesty on alias Jimmy Valentine"
Each year the club has delighted its
audiences with novel specialties. but this
year far surpasses all others In elaborate
and brilliant features. Special mention
may be made Of My Maid from Mon
treal," in which toboggan girls and boys
shoot across the stage on toboggans, and
end with a characteristic dance. By far
the most spectacular novelty Is 1T Hap
pened on Monday" Eighteen Of the
chorus impersonate fairy girls, Gold Dust
Twins. and show boys and picture and
dance a unique pantomime characteristic
Of the Mask and Wig Club. The most
pretentious advertisement is the inter
probation Of a Brahms waltz by twenty
four Of the chorus, lead by D. H. Smith
and c. H. c. Pearsall.
The 'Innocents' themselves are eight
youths, adopted sons Of an irasciblle
colonel. Cuipeper by name. The play
purports to be the adventures Of Col.
Culpeper, old beau and rich misogynist,
who after eight unhappy love affairs
adopts eight orphan boys whom he tries
to keep in ignorance OF the existancs
of womankind

Choral Society Tuesday.

One Of the most interesting features OF
the Washington Choral society's con-
cert Tuesday evening, at the First Con-
gregational Church. is the selection Of
Frederic Martin. Of New York. for the
important role Of Elijah. Mr.. Martin oc-
cupies an enviable position In the field
Of concert and oratorio. He IL the pos
SCISSOR Of a deep. sonorous voice. COM
bined with great intelligence and . keen
sense Of the artistic. His fine interpreta-
tion, clear enunciation. and perfect
breath control are sure to prove q delight
to critical music lovers. His work with
the Boston Festival Orchestra, the Pitts
burg Festival Orchestra. and the Chi
cago Symphony Orchestra Is well known.
The Elijah" IL the most dramatic. and
consequently. one Of the most popular Of
the oratorios. II has been pronounced
by certain authorities the greatest re-
hgious musical work since Haydn's The
Creation" It demands the full powers Of
soloists and chorus, and those who have
attended the rehearsals Of the society
predict that this con sert win be the finest
rendition Of the Elijah" Washington has
yet heard. The contralto role will be
sung by Mrs. A. Julian Brylawsld. whose
voice has been pronounced the most re-
markable contralto possessed by any
Washington singer.

ances of these managers inf1exible oppo-
sition to impurity on the stage and their
lifelong determination to elevate it.
with all the apt alliterative art Of Tody
Hamilton, who first gave us those mar
velous descriptions of ponderous, pachy-
dernic performers, and demoniacal, death
defying dare-devils of the circus, these
prose poems on purity assail the purvey-
ors of histrionic putrescence who have
debased the stage by catering to the low
est tastes OF humanity.
We are assured that never have these
paragons Of theatrical chastity lowered
their eyes from the standards Of their
illustrious forefathers Of the drama and
that nothing IS more execrable in their
sight than the Haunted feminine nudity
and salaciousness that fouls the stages
Of many Of New York's theaters. We
are permitted to believe that these Gal
lahads OF the Rialto pass the doors of
these dens Of wickedness with averted
eyes and that not for all the boarded
gold in the United States Treasury could
they be induced to prostitute their pro-
tession by the production Of entertain
ments Of such caliber.
This, for instance, attributed to the pen
Of George NJ Cohan:
isn't 1t a disgrace and a damnable
blot on the memory of the earnest men
who have gone before and the upright
ones who remain, and who by exercising
their sense Of right and wrong, have con-
scientiously blazed a taintless trail for
their progeny and posterity. The follies
Of the human race are multitudinous. but
why fiaunt them before the eyes of the
world? Why should managers with no
moral discernment be allowed to fill our
theaters with sensual sensationalism and
people our stage with the bedizened bands
Of faded sirens to lure the susceptible?
Not for arts sake. not for the uplifting
OF the stage are such exhibitions toler-
ated. Then why countenance them at
all? laugh can't be extracted from
