THE WORLDS FAIR
 STOCK COMPANY

For good clean spontaneous laugh producing comedy, "Jane" to be given at the Teller theatre during the en- gagement of Myrtle Vane and the Worlds Fair Stock Company, has all the previous productions in that line that have appeared here for some time backed off the boards.
 From the rise of the curtain of the first act until it's fall of the third, the audience is kept in con- tinuous atmosphere of merriment. Arthur Collins, the author has woven story around the servant girl, Jane which is guaranteed to drive away lbe worst attack of dull care. The scene is laid in an apartment house in New York City and in snite of the delicacy of the situations it is abSo- lutely devoid of any suggestiveness of the French comedies. Myrtle Vane, the pretty and clever leading woman, of the Worlds Fair Stock Company, will be seen in the title role, Jane"
 Other plays to be given during the engagement of Myrtle Vane and the Worlds Fair Stock Company next week, are Arizona" "The Charity Ball." Sweet Clover" Out of the Fold" and 'When We Were Twenty One" Seats now on sale at the Iii- ma Drug store.

The provisions of the bill also make it optional with the super 1 for judges of the various counties as to whether probate notices shall be published or not.
 In the Senate
 The formal killing of the Lovin di- vorce bill which was introduced with the object of crowding Reno off the map, was the lone feature in the sen- ate this morning.
 The members of the upper house have apparently run out of material for bills, as practically no new meas ures have been introduced in that body for the past week. However, the senators. make up for that appar- ent oversight by doing a great deal of work in committees, thus assist ing to a great extent in clearing the mass of work that is now clogging the legislative wheels.
 Report Tomorrow
 It is generally expected that the senate labor committee will make a report some time tomorrow on the Kinney bill providing for English speaking miners. Two reports will be made on this measure by the con- mittee but it is not generally known whether the majority report will fav- or the bill or urges that it do not pass.
 MT. Brooks of Gila will tomorrow introduce in the house a bill provid- ing for the free text books in public schools which is said to be far more complete than the measures already along the same lines.
 Final Action
 The house this morning by a vote of A ayes, nays and one absent, passed House Bill No. 43 by Bradner, limiting the number of freight cars in a train to 70 and the number of cars in passenger train to IA.
 Both houses stood at recess until 2 o'clock this afternoon.

MANDATES WELL CARED FIR
 IN MEASURES IN CALENDAR

Phoenix, Ariz., April 17.-(By Marx Dunbar). That all the excitement re
 garding constitutional mandates was 1 somewhat in the nature of tempest
 in a teapot was demonstrated this morning in the legislature, when the special house committee reported that all the constitutional mandates with the exceptiona of eight, are covered either by bills already introduced CT by measures now in course of prapara' ticn. The eight mandates in question are specified in the report of the con- he house in the very near future.
 It was the general understanding in both houses that but very few man. dates of the constitution had been pre- sented so far and that unless the Sol ons immediately got busy, an extra session would be necessary. On top of this prevalent belief the report Of the committee which was suDm' 'cad this morning, came in the nature of a surprise, but a very pleasant )ne at hat.
 The fact that the mandates were nearly all cared for seemed to en- outrage the framers of bills not touched by the constitution, as seven lew measures were presented this morning.
 The first of these bills was 5y MT. irvine of Maricopa and prohibits the establishment of a house of i'll lame within two miles of any incorporated city or town.
 Another member took a whack at the butchers trust when he introduc- ed a bill regulating the licenses of butchers.
 A unnique bill, but one with consid- erable merit, was presented by Nr Lewis of Gila, and provides for the as a part of all public schools, of a kitchen to be manned by experts for the purpose of prepar- ing launches for school children, to he served free of charge. Mr. Lewis also stood sponsor for a bill to prevent accidents in underground and for a measure ere atiEg the office of state electrical in- spector. The bill provides that the ap- pointee shall be a practical electrician of at least five years experience. The

MAJORITY IF MEN
 SUNK WITH SHIP

St. John, April 16-All hope that my male passengers and the crew of he Titanic, other than those aboard he Carpathia, are alive, was abandon ed this afternoon. All steamships which have been cruising near the disaster continued on their voyages.
 Messages from Cape Race seem to indicate that a large majority of the men on the Titanic went down with the ship. Messages from the Carpath- ia state that all boats launched by the Titanic are accounted for.

carpathia Is Only Hope


 New York, April 17.-AIl other sources of rescue were eliminated this morning, and the Carpathia is the only hope of relatives and friends of the passengers on the Titanic. Of the S6S survivors on board, the names of only BPS were recorded by wireless before the Carpathia instrument went out of communication. The names ot $40 aboard are unknown. Speeding to her to get the remaining names and information are scout cruisers Salem and Chester It is estimated that ap- proXimately 40 of the crew were Sav- ed, manning the lifeboats. It is sup posed that 40 in the Steerage were saved, which will with the list of first and second cabin passengers sent. complete the total of S6S. The names of only 79 men are in the rescued list, while 249 women appear. Of the SUD- positional 400 steerage passengers all are believed to be women. A flash of hope came early today when it was reported that the fishing schooner the Dorothy Baird, which was passed in the vicinity of the disaster by the freighter Etonian of the Phoenix line. had rescued some. The Etonian off cers thought it probable that the big schooner was unaware of the disaster.

 Too Many Trying to Get Information
 Halifax, N. S., April 17.-Communi cation with the Carpathia is hamper ed by the maze of wireless messages from steamers seeking news of the Titanic.

 New York, April 17.-Captain J A. Schulke, of the steamship Cincinnati, bound from Naples, today reports that at Midnight, Sunday, April IA, he ans wered a wireless call for help from the Titanic.

House Bills Passed

The house this morning transacted considerable business, including the final passage of two house bills. The final to come up was MT. Bradner'S bill providing that all locomotives ex- cept those used in switching work should be equipped with electric head lights of not less than 150O candle power. The bill passed with only one dissenting vote, MT. Buchanan casting his vote in the negative.
 The second bill passed was MT. Bradner's measure which stipulates the number of men who shall compose the crews of all trains. A hot fight was made against this measure being led by Mir. Jacobs of Maricopa, who contended that not more than five members of the house were qualified to discuss and pass upon with any degree of intelligence, any matters pertaining to the intricate manage ment of railroads.
 Under our Constitution, we have Corporation Commission composed of three men whose duty it is to ham, dle all such matters as those contained in this bill. The gentlemen will de- vote a great deal of time to the con- sideration of railroad problems and surely will be better able to deal with these matters than the members of this legislature" said Jacobs.
 Mir. Rabbit took a similar stand, and spoke against the measure. That they convinced others that their stand was correct, was demonstrated when the roll call showed IS members vot- ing for the passage and 16 against, one member being absent.

DOUBLE REPORT IN
 THE LoRIMER CASE
Minority Finds Him Guilty of Cor ruption, Majority Exonerates Him.

Washington, May 2e-The second struggle over the retention of William Lerimer of Illinois in the United States senate may be precipitated at any time from new on until final ad- journment. The issues were drawn to- day in the majority and minority re- ports by the special Investigating com mIttee..
 Senator Lea for the minority intro- duced a resolution declaring tht cor rupt practices were employed in LOT imers election and that his election therefore was invalid. This resolu- Iion will be called up later when Sena- tor Kern of Indiana. probably VIII open the debate for the minority. Senators Kenyon of Iowa and Lea or Tennessee, the other two minority minority members of the committed will speak.
 The resolution followed the submls- sion today of the two reports The majority, headed by Senator Dlllng- ham of Vermont, chairman of the com mittee, stood by the senate's previous judgment in favor of Lorimer, de- claring that no vote was obtained Tor him for bribery. The minority con tended that at least ten votes for nm in the Illinois legislature were cor rupt, scored Edward Hines of Chica- go and attacked the majority's support of the plea of res adjudicate, saying that it was inconceivable that the ma jority members 'all of them dlst1n- guished lawyers" would have proceed ed with the investigation, without right of jurisdiction"
