SUGGESTION AND FACT

Did you ever pick up a high-class
magazine and see one of it's full
pages that cost from 100000 to
$5,OOO0O for a single issue, sparing-
ly occupied by a beautiful etching,
and few simple words saying
want more Cream of Wheat?" That
gives nice impression and sugs
gests high quality. That is adver-
Using. The man who says, Come
to my mill and get half bushel of
what some call Cream of Wheat for
fifty cents,'' is not advertising
Still, he proves that our breakfast
was half advertising. No wonder
we have indigestion with high liv-
ing.
Automobiles are sold largely by
advertising. Ford tells you the
real specifications SO you can judge
the Ford car by real merits, the
same as you would any other ma
chine. Ford gives comparisons and
comparison is the basis of reason.
The Ford car and the highest
type of passenger locomotives each
weigh fifty-three and a fraction
pounds to the horse power. Most
automobiles weigh from IS to Ito
pounds to the horse power. The
Ford tires are large enough to give
2T inches of tire to each pound of
car. No other car has over inches
of tire to the pound of car and some
not that.
The Ford weighs 1900 pounds
and has 3H-inch tires. Most OF
the cheaper heavy cars weighing
from 1000 to $500 pounds use 81.
inch tires. Rubber will stand
about SO much strain without tear
ing and it is the strain of the rubber
on the ground that moves the car,
You can see that it makes a lot OF
difference when you add a thousand
pounds of additional weight and
extra strain on a 81 inch tire.
The Ford car running gear is
braced and coupled together on the

OBITUARY
ELMER K. covELL

The sad and unexpected news oil
the death of Elmer Covell cast g
gloom over the entire community
last Monday noon.
Mr.. Covell had been ailing for
some time and last week took to
his bed with a severe attack OF
pneumonia and his condition be-
came quite serious, but he took a
turn for the better on Monday,
when his family and friends were
hopeful of his early recovery.
About noon, while the nurse step
ped into the next room for lunch,
he shot himself in a fit of delirium,
dying several hours later without
having regained consciousness.
Elmer Karrol Covell was born in
Prescott June %, 1861. He was
married in 1892 at Wabasha to Miss
Lillian Whitmore of that place. He
leaves to mourn his loss his wife,
father, mother and one sister, Mrs.
Fred Bliss of River Falls. The
funeral was held from the residence
yesterday afternoon, Rev, Mr.. Stills
officiating. The large attendance
and the beautiful floral tributes at
tested the esteem and respect in
which Mr.. Covell was held. Bust
ness houses were closed and the
Commercial Club, of which he was
an active member, attended in a
body. He was one of the trustees
of the M. E. church, of which he
was an active member.
A genial disposition, active, ener-
getic and liberal, foremost in every
movement for the good of the COM
munity, with always a Icheerful
word or kind act for those in dis
tress, had endeared him to every
one who had the pleasure of his ac-
quaintance, and his passing away
in the fullness of active manhood
sent thrill of deep sorrow to ALL
Prescott Tribune.

Irish Play Makes Bic Hit.

The play Shaun Aroon,' at the
Opera House last Friday evening
proved one of the most successful
home talent productions of drama
tic nature ever given in this city.
The hall was crowded, many stand
ing in the outer isles throughout
the play and still more had to be
turned away at the door on account
of lack of room.
John Lowe, in the title role, gave
good version of a "reviving Irish
lad, with a light purse and lighter
heart" and his brother James, as
Lord Fermoy," the landlord, made
fine impression. Warren Knowles
as Fergus Riordan" had perhaps
the most difficult part of all, but his
Interpretation of it was fully up to
the excellent standard of the humor-
Gus characters in which he has here
tofore won high favor with local
audiences. M. Mclaughlin was at
once the surprise and hit" Of the
evening with his strong performance
in the role of Dan O'Grady," and
depicted the character of an Irish
farmer true to life. Miss Florence
Hurkie as molly" made a most
charming appearance and played
her part with splendid success,
fully justifying Lord Fermoy's"
choice. Mrs. Meath gave faith full in
depreciation to the character of
Mrs. O'Grady," and George Nal
Tory was we'll placed in the role of
tom O'Grady." Miss Josephine
Mallory and Harry Reynolds as
household servants, made a pleas
ing team and amused the audience
with some we'll rendered song spe-
cialties. Octave Baillergeon played
the part of "Old Hennings," the
money lender, with realistic effect,
and ]. McKahn, as Nipper," the
detective, proved very acceptable
Limb O. the law" The costumes
for the play were well chosen and
their perfection added greatly to
the realism of the play. Great credit
for the success of the production is
d1e to Mr.. A. N. Wolff who super.
vised the staging and directed the
rehears ais, showing unusual talent
and skill in this work. Excellent
music was furnished by an orchestra
under the leadership of Lutte Dodge
AT the conclusion of the play the
floor was cleared and all those who
AIRED to, were given an opportunity
to enjoy few hours of dancing.
The proceeds of the entert ainmen
and dance amounted to over 5000
which go toward the maintenance o
St. Bridget's Catholic Church.

THE COLISEUM.

Those four singers appearing at the Coliseum every night this week are about the classiest quartet that ever made a Phoenix night melodious, and if they sang as many encOres as their audiences try to force them into giv- ing. there would be no time for the other numbers on the bill. The quar- let would fill the whole evening Their appearance has been as successful elsewhere as it has been here and they are strengthening the reputa ton they have had for several years of being the best quartet singing in the west Last night as the crowd streamed out of the theater a num- Der of remarks of a commentatory nature were heard; one party say ing: T thought I had heard the best of them, but that quartet beat ev- erything else I ever heard"
 There's no doubt about the fact that the Musical Spragualos are good comedy pair. One member of the team does the black face part and the other does the soubrette. both playing inimitably, and with good finish. The incongruity of such q beautiful young lady as the sou brette having anything to do with such an unprepossessing scamp as the black face brings irrisistable laughter from tn. audience, and as they work their clever dialogue they are compelled to stop speaking at times to wait for the laughter and cheers to die down.
 Of course the comedy act. The Messenger Boy and the Actor" is the head liner of the show, and it de serves to be. The actors who carry the parts. Jones and Greiner, are up to the demands of the most eXacting stage manager. and they are bring ing more people to the Coliseum this week than have been attracted to the popular theater at any other time this season by single number. The pictures are up to Manager Reeves usual standard and the show, con- sidered as a whole offers a symmetrical and well balanced troup of amusement artists.

THE EIKS

The bill at the Elks this week makes a strong addition to the high class theatrical entertainments pro Nided in the city for Phoenix theatre goers, presenting as it does an actor of the Pacific coast whose reputation was gained in such theatres as the Burbank and Belasco Of Los An geles. and monologist of long ex- perience and indisputable cleverness
 IL is a usual thing for new theatre to open with a crowd, and close with half a dozen straggiers in the house at the end of a month or two. but the way in which the num- bers attending the show at the Elks theatre are increasing nightly in- dicates a general appreciation for the acts billed by the management of the theatre. and admiration for the artistic work of the actors.
 The Littlest Girl" has proved a decided success, and the act gains in finish with every performance. The manner in which Douglas Arnold. the leading man. and Warren Holden. both experienced men, but never be fore cast in the same play, man aged to fall into their parts and work together would be astonishing to any one who knew the short time and the few rehearSals they had before open ing the theatre last Tuesday night. Miss Mary Aliens mOnOlogue is one Of the feature acts of the bill, and il is numbered among the best scenes the capable actress has presented The White Silhouette" shows the struggle of an ambitious soubrette who aspires to an emotional part in a new melOdrama, and the manner in which Miss Allen pOrtrays the anxiety Of the girl is wonderful. A number of people have stopped at the box office Of the theatre on their way out after the last curtain to say that Miss Aliens work is marvellous ly realistic and as near perfection as any emotional parts seen in the city this season
