 Ruth Hesser, who possesses a clear, sweet voice, sang a lullaby with pleasing ease and grace, after which Freddie Seeger op. ened the baby show act by an- nouncing that a prize would be awarded the prettiest "baby." Thirty-two children then filed on the stage, each wee tot dress ed as a mother and holding dolls nearly as large as themselves. After each little mother had urged her claim, Mary Dady's "baby" carried off the prize. Fred Seeger, in full evening dress, made a capital judge and looked at home in the part.

CANDIDATES PLENTY
 FOR SPEAKERSHIP

It seems very generally agreed over the state that the speaker of the house of representatives in the first Arizona state legisla ture will come from Cochise county m deference of the fact that the representation of that county will be one sixth of the strength of the legislature. That Cochise will use it's representa- tion to get for Cochise what is jnstly due her, is also apparant. Knowing the power that Co., chise will yield, it IS said that other county delegates are get, ting ready to make overtures to the big brother of the south west corner.
 The apportioning of the house speakersh1p to this county will add to the power of being the strongest delegation and make every ounce of repre- sentation count. Dr. Craig Is being men, tioned as speaker of the house. According to advices from the other parts of the territory, 1t is expected that Samuel Bradner, of Benson, will be candidate for the speakership, and two or three others are being consid- cred
 There will likely be no scrap for the plum, however, as the Cochise delegation will have agreed upon its speakership can didate before the first legisla- tive session begins.-Blsbee Re l view.

DIR. SAMPSON FOR
 STATE PHYSICIAN

According to the southern Ari- zona papers, Dr. Geo. P. Samp- son of Winslow was to be the state physician appointed by Governor-E Elect George w. P. Hunt. Elsewhere in this issue we have an account of the state ment made by Governor Hunt in this respect, declaring that he has as yet made no appoint ments whatever.
 UnbeknoWn to The Mail, Dr. Sampson has been an applicant for the position of state physi- clan and has numerous packers to that effect. That now makes two applicants for that position from this section of the country.
 Ofcourse, it is all up to Gov ernor Hunt who shall fill this position, but the northern peo- pie feel that they should have some representation when it comes to handing out some of these jobs, although there are about fifty applicants for each position.
 Taking the side of politics and the good work done by Dr. Sampson tor the Democratic party, he stands a very good chance of getting the appoint ment for that position, being not only known in Navajo county but all over the territory for that matter. His work as county physician for years in Navajo county has brought fav- orable comment not only from men in his own profession and NavaJo county people, but from people all over the territory and the territorial physician, Dr.. Godfrey, who commended the work of Dr. Sampson very high ly the last summer.

 Miss Reeds performance in the soprano role was especially noteworthy, the qualities of her voice approaching a degree of excellence that insures her occu- pying position of prominence in the musical world.
 Miss Brown as altoist made a favorable impression by her very capable rendition of the part assigned her, while MT. Weinert delivered the tenor parts in his usual form and rendered valuable assistance i'll d direct ing capacity.
 c. l. Spellmire assumed the baritone role and met it's re- qull ements with his customary ease
 The success of. the individual perfor mers was attributable lar gely to W. .Geary who presided at the organ and whose artistic and masterly attachments as a musician are too we'll krOwn and appreciated to need com ment.

Winslow News Notes
From the Winslow Mail

There are a few old plays which apparently defy the changes that take place in the form of dramatic attractions. They are presented year after year and are always welcomed by theatre goers. Such play is Human Hearts" which will be presented at the Opera House, Thursday night, Jan. 4. The story of the play IS familiar. The injustice suffered by Tom Logan and his final vindication forms the theme of the piece and the comedy is furnished by the Imaginable characters of Jem Ma son, the tramp " Limpy" the newsboy, and Nose, the faith ful Sold colored servant, and a great deal ot new comedy has been written into the play this season.

Planning For 1918 Baseball Season.

Baseball managers are planning for
next YEAR Even in professional base
ball every club has its weak spots,
which stand out prominently after the
last fight for the pennant takes place
1t is no easy task to get real line on
the ability of a youngster in the spring.
The men report at the training camps
soft from several months layoff and
have to be nurSed along until they get
into condition. Then, too some are
what is known as .spring ball players,
while others get into shape so slowly
that they do not show their true form
until after they are sent back to some
minor league club. In the early fall,
however. every man should be at his
best. 1t is a much easier task at this
time to classify the youngsters. AL
though the minors have already sold
many of their stars. the draft will
probably. be large, and there may be
more new faces than usual in the big
tent in 1913.
