State Banking Department Worried About Charges Against It

e-T-SHE State Banking Department
greatly disturbed by the various
charges which have been made
against It. has been moving vigorously to
try to head of an official investigation
by Governor Sulzer. The depositors OF
the wrecked Northern Bank and the
Washington Savings Bank have demanded
an investigation OF the Banking Depart
ment and have offered to prove that their
funds were stolen under the eyes of the

comfortable charges have been made,
which the depositors have begged Cover.
nor Suizer to give them CHANCE to sub

Coliseum,

The vaudeville at the Coliseum this week is fully up to the standard. Ber- nard Eckert starts the ball rolling with a refined musical act, using in a mas terful manner the trombone, chimes and Xylophone Mclaughlin & Stew art as laugh producers are next and with bells on at that. Their comedy sketch "The Hickville Pair" has never failed to please since opening night The jokes used are new and put over in a lively way which win much ap plause. The Gilmore Girls present a very clever sister act, using the latest song hits and dances, accompanied by- some very appropriate wardrobe. Taken all in all the bill is well worth seeing Particular attention may be called to the Pathe's Weekly, showing the latest events from all points of the world, particularly Mutt & Jeff in their latest antics.

PRESCOTT GOLF COURSE
 ID BE READY SHORTLY
Classy New Links Announced Near Completion; Local Golfers Notified
 and Match May Result.

| Prescotts new golf course will be in readiness for the players within a very 1 few days, according to a wire received yesterday by ". ;. Goldsworthy, local
 general agent of the Santa Fe from F. 1 P. Cruice, travelling freight and passen-
 ger agent for the s. F. P and P line | He asks Goldsworthy to notify the local enthusiasts and in particular Herbert B. Atha, president of the Phoenix golf ists' association of the nearing com pletion of the Prescott course, a fact which can have no other significance except that the two clubs are planning a clash.
 Notices will be posted about the
 Phoenix clubs Harry Welch will be
 told of the new course and the news
 will then be considered well spread. In about ten days more, the links will be ready for the strOllers. It will be of the usual type, with Prescott varia-
 tions. It's setting near the city and
 amid the pines of an especially pretty
 hillside is more than ordinarily attrac-
 tive. In fact the Prescott golf course
 may properly be said to be one of the
 best scenically and politically than any
 other within the state if not in the
 southwest. With semi occasional ten
 his matches, Prescott and Phoenix
 sportsmen and women manage to get
 together right often. The new golf course will afford one more way in
 Which the two cities can find time and
 place to fraternize.

There will be a complete change of program at the Lamara beginning with the first performance this after noon. The bill will run also Monday and Tuesday. The style of pictures that are being shown at the Lamara can not be duplicated anywhere in the city. The pictures are the latest re- leases of the General Film company, the combination that is making the best pictures in the world. Feature pictures are obtained whenever there is one released that will appeal to this section of the country. In addition to this five full reels, or five thousand feet of pictures are shown at the Theater Comfortable every night. The theater is clean, well arranged, and the whole place presents a pleasant location for spending a Sunday after

WARD RET|RES
 FROM STRIKE
Man Whose Discharge Pre- cipitated Controversy No Longer an Issue-Strik- ing Carmen Stand Pat on Other Demands

William Ward, the employe of the Phoenix Street Railway company, whose discharge precipitated the street car strike here, is no longer an issue in the strike. He has voluntarily with drawn and yesterday left for his for mer home in the east. A committee of the strikers went to the train with him and bid him goodbye and good luck Immediately thereafter a state ment was issued from the headQuarterS of the strikers to the effect that while the departure of MT Ward withdrew his case as an issue of variance be- tween the strikers and the street car company, they proposed to stand pat upon the other three propositions; the increase in wages, seniority of runs, and recognition of the union.
 One of the prominent strikers said last night, We are only contending for what be believe to be just and right. We have stood for that and will continue so to stand, if it takes all summer
 As for the street car company it is going along it's way breaking in men for positions with the company just the same as was done for the week imme- diately proceeding the strike. The strike breakers who were shipped in here are being used as instructors. The attitude of the company for the past two days has been that of ignoring the existence of the former employees, the mediatOry committee of the M. & M as well as the corporation commission.
 For the purpose of creating still greater. interest and sympathy for the strikers a mass meeting of union men and Sympathizers has been arranged for this afternoon in the City Hall Plaza. There will be speakers from both among the ranks of the strikers and the union leaders of the com munity
 The union men yesterday felt a great deal more optimistic than they have for the past week. The retirement of William Ward from the controversy, and that fact that contributions for the support of the strikers were being re- ceived from various parts of the state, indicating a widespread interest in the strike gave them 'stiffer upper lip if that can be said of them. Numbers of the men spoke last evening with a great deal of faith in the future of the strike.

THE BEE AND THE BOTTLE

Maurice Maeterlinck has described the experiment of placing q bee in an open bottle, the closed end of which faces the sunlight. In it's endeavors 10 regain it's liberty, the bee will beat it's life away upon the glass; it never at tempts to escape by turning away from
 the light and retreating through the open end of the bottle. The Belgian philosopher suggests that this may be due less to deficient intelligence than to an instinctive assumption that safe ty always lies in the direstion of light
 Such a trait is. it must be confessed, characteristic of humanity in general. It has long been an accepted belief that some subtle retrogression has taken place in that portion of the human clay from which workers are evolved. The
 reflex action of this condition has been

Tobacco Habit
 Easily Conquered

well-known New Yorker who has had wide experience. has written a book telling how the tobacco or snuff habit may be easily banished in three days without any return of the craving.
 The health improves wonderfully after the nicotine poison is out of the system. Calmness, tranquil sleep clear eyes, normal appetite, good di- gestion, manly vigor. strong memory and general gain in efficiency are among the many benefits reported. No more of that nervous feeling; no more need of pipe, cigar. cigarette or chewing tobacco to pacify the morbid desire. The author, Edw- J. Woods 534 Sixth Ave, 594P.

GIBBONS SMHEs TWO
 FOR R.. s. TENNIS CUP
There Isn't Any Cup, But Gibby Won It Just the Same; Courts Heat
 Up to High Temperature.

Willum E, Gibbons, Gibby and Sor- rel-top to his intimates in the U. s. k. S.. is now the undisputed cham pien of that. exclusive set as to ten- his. In three incandescent matches on the. Sims Ely courts yesterday afternoon, Gibbons trounced Marcus May and his pal Dawson, to a fare ye-well, and thereby earned the title he so proudly mentions on the slight est excuse. The official score, which was carefully kept by s. K Baker until he delivered it up to The Re publican man last evening was 3-6, 6-3, 6-4, the twain taking the first one but losing the second two.
 The players and spectators made solemn affidavit last night that the temperature on the courts during the game was 10S in the shade, and that part of this was due to the activity of Gibbons, waving his hectic head
 about wildly in pursuit of the balls
