AT THE PRINCESS

The staged "Virginian" is al
most as popular as the book itself
and this truth is meritoriously
proven in the stock production
here yesterday by the Princess
theater people when both per-
formances were played to packed
houses and Manager Richards has
proven that he has made care
full selection.
Almost everybody knows about
the Virginian, it's comedy, its love
scenes and it pathos, and it's
treachery, and all these perqui-
sites to good drama are found in
the Virginian and the 81 MEM
bers of the cast for this week per-
form admirably their parts. First
honors go, of course, to Lee Lind
hardt, who plays the title role of
the "Virginian." Lees interpre-
tation of the part makes us all
forget of all past performers who
essayed to slaughter "Trampas, !"
the william, who is returned in the
flesh in the person of William
Brewer. Mr.. Brewers work calls
for no criticism.
And Mollie Wood, the pretty
school teacher, is we'll taken care
of, too, for Florence Bell takes
the part we'll and gets her share
of the applause.
The part of the cast is fitted
well for the various parts.

WRESTLERS
FINISH WORK

Winding up the three days
feature of combining athletics and
religion the University of Wash
ington students occupied the pull
pit at Pilgrim Congregational
church last night. Herman An
derson, captain of the university
football team, James e. Sipprell,
one of the wrestlers of Friday
night; Wilfred Lewis, president
of the university Y. M. G. A., and
Rev, e. c. Wheeler, all made
short talks.
Sipprell, who wrestled to a
draw Friday night, told the audi
ence that the fight for Christian
character is just as strenuous as
the wrestling game, but lasts
longer. at is a contest all the
time. There is no draw, no time
limit" he said.

AT THE TACOMA

deliberately mounted, gorgeous
1y gowned, and full of ensemble
effects, the Rose Maid" with
Alice Lloyd, made a distinct hit
with a rather small, though ap-
preciative audience, at the Taco
ma last night.
Like most musical shows this
operetta has little plot to boast
OF. 1t is about an English duke
in the clutches of three money
lenders, who plot to have him
marry an American heiress, when
a rich uncle fails to pay his
nephew's debts. The duke mar
ries the faithful little Rose
Maid" however, and uncle be-
comes forgiving.
Alice Lloyd is pretty and sat
isfactory, although not seeming
to have such an awful lot to do.
The real real big hit of the bill
is undoubtedly Harry Lester Ma
son, in a German comedy role. AS
a comedian, Mr.. Mason is all
there and then some. One Of the
prettiest women in the cast is Ida
Van Tine, who plays an American
heiress.
Some very good music is given
by the augmented orchestra,
and the "Kute Kiddies," four tiny
tots, who dance very profession
ally. should not be forgotten.
The Rose Maid" repeats to-
night.

NEW YORK LETTER

NEW YORK, March 3.-Thos.
A. Edison has the reputation of
never allowing one of his inven-
tions to be publicly exploited
until he has brought it to a point
where its workings are entirely
satisfactory to him - where he
can feel pride in its perfection
as we'll as it's novelty.
If SO, the eminent inventor
seems either to have departed
from his rule, or to have erred in
his Judgment, concerning the. new
"kinetophone" or moving-talking
pictures, which are having their
first public exhibition in several
local vaudeville theaters. While
they furnish a remarkable ex-
ample of Edison's wizardy, they
are nevertheless most unsatisfy-
ing as an entertainment. And Ii
is as entertainment, surely, that
they must be judged, rather than
as an interesting mechanical
achievement.
The synchronism is perfect
startlingly perfect. A man APP
pears In the moving picture,
walks to the front of It, and
makes a speech about the klnet-
or hone. The speech he makes
mes from talking machine be-
nd the screen. Watching the
SANS mouth, you note that every
syllable corresponds exactly In
time with the lip movement.
A violinist plays. The melody
floating from the monograph Is
precisely In accord with the bow
ing of the player. A pianist sits
at the keyboard, and anyone who
can follow music at all knows
that every note sounds as he
strikes it.
This is the triumph Edison has
achieved, and truly 1t is great
step. But--to see a speech de-
livered by an orator who stands
before one, whose tones should
lin the theater. and to have tc
listen to faint, squawky talking
machine echo of that mans voice
lridiculously disproportionate te

FRANCHISE
GRANT IS
OPPOSED

The Commercial club trustees
are opposed to granting fran
chise across the High bridge but
apparently also opposed to a mu-
nicipal street car line. In a reso-
luton sent to the city council to-
day the trustees declared against
granting any franchise to any
company but asked the council to
lease the right to cross the bridge
to private companies for a term
of years. If it did this of course
no municipal line would ever be
built over the flats.

the figure that appears to be
speaking-it destroys the illu-
sion completely. A minute or two
of 1t is sufficient; one sees what
Edison has done, and realizes
painfully what he has not been
able to do.
The hands of the piano player
sweep up and down the keys
the melody merely tinkles from
the monograph. So with the
violin, so with the MINISTRIES. The
words of the interlocutor, the
music of the band, the songs OF
the singers, all are SO diminished
in volume that 1t is impossible
for the spectator to blend In his

SOME FUNNY LETTERS

W. H. Knox, secretary of the Mesa Egyptian Cotton Exchange, has an advertising campaign on in the south and middle west, in an effort to get cotton pickers to pick our cotton In answer to these advertisements he is receiving hundreds of letters some of them being very interesting as char acter studies. One gentleman writes that he wishes to get married and Knox would furnish the amount nee eSsary and also send him two tickets both he and his future wife would be glad to become citizens and voters Tn the Salt river valley. Another man complains of the tobacco habit and would be glad to have Mir Knox give him more information as to how to quit. He probably thinks that cot ton picking is an employment used in the Keely institutes for the to- bacco habit and that Mr. Knox is running a sanitarium One "cullud'' brother writes that by the grace of God he can send several of his flock to this country. provided he is fur nished with sufficient cash in ad- vance to buy tickets and give him a rake off There are many more along the same line, but MT.

SOME MORE HOUSES
 NEEDED IN TEMPE
Real Estate Dealers Complain That Supply is Dimi inshed. People From
 all Arizona Coming to Tempe.

With the opening of the four Tempe schools on Monday morning, Septem- Der eighth, the request and search for dwelling houses in and about Tempe to house the children and their parents during the school term is and has been for the past month quite noticeable ac- cOrding to local real estate dealers. The demand for residence, both furnished and unfurnished, has far Outsripped the supply and in consequence Tempe is losing q large number of people who would gladly make their homes here were suitable accommodations pro- vided.
 As a school town including besides it's two city schools the Arizona state Normal and the training school depart ment Tempe is called upon to house many non-residents during the winter months. People from all over the state and particularly those located in the mountainous regions where schooling facilities are not so easily available, have looked upon Tempe as their win ter home. And as time advances keep ing pace to the growth of the schools more people are pouring into Tempe from year to year in search of a house where they may reside while the child ren are attending school
 The supply of suitable houses listed with the real estate dealers this year has diminished considerably in number since the first of this month. And with the end of the month looming into sight the desirable locations have practically all be taken. There are therefore but a very few empty houses.
 The chances for an investment along such a line which will yield q good return to the investor were never bet ter. The need of houses in Tempe was never more aparent than it is now and still the opening of school is ten days off.

THEIR SON LOST,

Mir and Mrs. G. Truesdale of Phoe- nix spent Monday and yesterday in Tempe searching for their sixteen year old boy who took 1t upon himself to leave for other parts last Saturday af- ternoon. The youth was sent to town to meet his father, but in place of calling for him, left the horse and bug gy within easy reach and made his dis appearance. Since then he has not been seen or heard of except for a short tune on the streets of Tempe Sunday morning. The parents are considerably worried over his sudden departure from home and have put in two days full search in the attempt to locate him, but so far no good, the youth is still at large.

THUNDER AND LIGHTNING.

Few Tempe people slept through the early hours of yesterday morning in absolutely peaceful slumbers. there was too much thunder and lightning to al low the feeling of complete safety to rest in the heart of any human includ- ed in the zone of the storm. One bolt of thunder in particular. immediately preceded by a brilliant display of lightning zig zagging across the heav- ems, left an impression in the minds of many slumberers who were so suddenly wakened by the peal. The storm start ed in proceedings about ten o'clock and materialized into the real stuff about three yesterday morning. From four until five there was thunder and light ming galore and then a refreshing rain, just enough to lay the dust without leaving any mud, lent the finishing touches to the storm.
