special scenery, a musical director Of

modest way are said to rival more pre-

pieces of melody.

ADJUSTMENTS
COLISEUM.

There ares more laughs in the new
 show put on at the Coliseum Tuesday evening than any show seen in Phoe-
 nix for weeks. All three of the
 teams are comedy teams: moreover every actor or actress in the bunch is a top notcher.
 Those parodies of Bert Gerald, partner of F.. R. Keith in a singing and talking act, seemed to make the biggest hit It looked like the audi ence never would let him quit Again 1 and again he was called back, not | only during the first show. but dur ! ing the second. Good parodies on popular songs never fail to please. and Gerald certainly has some daisies. MT. Keith, Geralds partner. sings several bass solos. He has mag nificent voice. and some fine songs. Keith also helps Gerald sing some of fthe parodies.
 Clark X Turner are a handsome lady who do a song and dance act that is hummer. MT. Clark also has some pretty good parodies He and his partner are very good, indeed, both in their songs and in their dances.
 The third team is Rickard & De- Winters. who present "Arabella's New Nurse When it comes to laughs. this little sketch is certainly a win ner. IL is new, founded on some new ideas. and is well played as well as written in a masterful manner. MT Rickard also does a gymnastic feat or two that are remarkable Anyone who doesn't laugh at every line of "Arabella's New Nurse" should see doctor.
 Taking everything into considera ton, no better purely comic bill was ever presented at any Phoenix hous. There have been more diversified bills and perhaps they pleased wider circle of theatergoers. but then. every one likes comedy and that's what is now being handed out at the Coliseum comedy in large chunks.

Today you are getting twice that for your twos and the winter losses are far less than in those days.

This spring your yearlings. those of you who sold any at all, brought from seventeen to twenty one dollars. So there is no use in being discouraged. because we won't let you increase your numbers and again get the range overstocked and court a die-off year. Rather should you be alive to your own interests and grade up your herds. until they are of the best. Mind you we don't charge any more for grazing your pure -breds than we do for the scrub.

WIGWAM.

Manager George D. Mullen of the Wigwam feels that he has a right to be proud of one of the pictures he presented last night. He is so charmed with the picture-and last nights audiences were charmed. too that he wants every Christian m Phoenix to see it.
 "A Mexican Legend" is the title of the film, but that gives only a faint idea of the story This story is of an attack made upon a band of priests by Indians. among the noun tains of Mexico. The priests are sur rounded. but one manages to get away and go for help. As he tolls over the mountains he falls more than once. but always Christ appears to help him onward Finally he reaches his people. and they arrive on the scene of battle in time to kill the Indians and save the priests They then climb to the top of a hill. where Christs cross appears. and he makes speech to them.

GRAND,

The Grand opened as vaudeville house Tuesday evening It was filled to capacity. and everyone knows that the Grand is a theater of some size But the audience was not at all dis appointed; in fact the patronage was more than warranted, for a rattling good show was presented.
 It is hard to pick out the feature act, but the Musical Millers probably are entitled to he considered the top liners. though they come last on the program. There are three of the Millers and they are some musicians. The act is a novelty from start to finish. All the music is produced by playing upon freak instruments. such as tin cans. tubs and a dozen other things. including a mechanical burro. The audience went wild and yelled for more

well as a religious standpoint it is a triumph.
 "I want to extend a personal in vitation to every Christian in Phoe- nix to see this picture" said Man ager Mullen last night. Those who are not members of any church will also enjoy it.
 "A Mexican Legend will be shown Thursday and Friday nights.
 The other pictures at the Wigwam are also good. They are: His Breach of Discipline a French army drama. and Generous Customers and Birthday Cigars The latter is a comic film that makes everyone tough.
