GREAT ALASKAN FILMS
 THREE NIGHTS AT SAVOY
The Alaska Siberia Pictures Are Brought to Phoenix by Local
 Man.

For three nights, beginning this evening, there will be shown at the Savoy theater that series of moving picture films, the Alaska Siberia pictures, that have created a furOre wherever shown. They were taken under the direction of the Carnegie Research Institute. not alone for ex- hibitiOn purposes, but for filing in the archives of the institution. That arrangements could be made for their exhibition in Phoenix means that the theatergOers of this city will have an opportunity of seeing at small cost pictures that one day it will be impossible to see except upon special occasions and that by making the trip to Washington or New York City.
 The films of this wonderful series have been purchased by Frank Light foot of this city and he alone has the exclusive right to exhibit the of ficial pictures in Arizona and New Mexico. It is likely that these three nights will mark the last showing of these exceptional films in the south west.

LIQUOR
 CHARGE HELD
Indictment Sustained in the Case of Charles Brady, Who Received Minimum Sentence - The Carlisle Brothers, One Guilty

The impOssibility of his being in Phoenix at the time he was said to have been in Tucson selling a quart of sherry to brace of Indians was the futile defense of Charles Rrad.- in the federal court yesterday. And after the jury had made the defense out as useless, Judge SaWtelle deliV- cred to the said defendant the sen tcnce of 50 days in jail and a fine of $100, the Iightest penalty he could impose under the law, notwithstand- ing the fact Brady caused the law a delay and expense by bringing his case to trial.
 It was the first trial of the term. and it started at two o'clock. It was not possible to commence proceed ings earlier on account of a lack of eligible jurors. The court had to send out and round up a new venire before the case could be tried. The introduction of evidence was formal, and the efforts to combat the states testimony perfunctOry Jose Juan Miguel, a San Xavier PapagO, con fessed to having purchased the quart of wine from Brady. Marce1lanO, a pal. admitted being present and par taking of the refreshment. Jose Bus tamente. an Indian police officer, told of having caught the men drinking and having taken the bottle from where they had secreted it under a cloth on the little plaza at Tucson the evening of June "A, San Juan's day. Charles Odell made the arrest the next morning.
 On the stand in his own defense, Brady aVerred he was a miner, re spectable man and not one who would put himself in danger of the pen for the ten cent tip said to have been given him by Marcellano. He left Phoenix the evening he was said to have been selling the liquor, bound to Tucson, where he arrived the next day. He called w. C. Pendleton in hIs defense, but the best the wit ness could do was prove that Brady was in Phoenix on June g at 12:45.
 The case against Louis Carlisle, Phoenix Indian school boy. went to pieces when the convicting witness said it was Blaine, a brother of Louis, who had sold him the booze Louis was acquitted on motion of the district attorney, the jury never leaV- ing their seats. Blaine had previ- cusly plead guilty.

FIERCE WAR ON MOSQUITOES
FRANK THOMAS, City Recorder.

Travellers to Atlantic City of late have noticed that the broad meadows extending from Pleasantville to the shore are being laid out in checker beard squares by the digging of deep Q nd narrow ditches. The squares are very small, and many have wondered what the work means.
 This is simply the latest develop ment of the war on the mosquito which the state of New Jersey has been waging for some time. It is found that mosquitoes breed little
 if at dll in tide water. Their natur-
 al breeding grounds are pools Of stagnant water. and these are many. all over the meadows, where very hollows on the marshes The new plan is to ditch these many square miles so thoroughly that no tide, however high, can leave behind it any water. all of. which will be drained off in the ditches.
 This is only part of the campaign, but it is the most prominent The experts employed have had extra ordinary success elsewhere, but never have tackled such a large proposi- tion They are confident that by the time they are through there will be no breeding spot for mosquitoes from the mainland to the breakers-a con summation devoutly to be wished

Coliseum


 Another big bill of the hard to beat variety will put in an appear snce at the old reliable Coliseum this evening. Frederick, the Great. of magical fame, will form an import ant part of the program. The clever performer bears a world wide repu- tatiOn as a magician, in the expert class, and doubtless the mention of his name will be sufficient recOm- mendation to many vaudeville fands. The Thaten DuO'' are seen in a novelty sketch, with special scenery, depicting dear old Holland in sing ing, dancing and talking. The act is not entirely unknown to Phoenix, having been seen about two years ago, at which time, it was featured. The Ritters appear in an entertain ing little skit entitled, The Col legian and the Girl" into which is introduced much comedy and sing ing, of a very pleasing nature. On the movie program is two reel feature, an output of the house of Kalem, "The Sacrifice of the Spill way" full of exciting situations destined to hold one interest from start to finish

Lion Theater


 Another big program for Wednes- days change The Halfbreed,' a Frontier is a western story having several strong situations and holds the interest nicely. The girl refuses him because of his unfortunate birth but after repeated demonstrations of his heroism, changes her mind. The rounding up of Black Jack is a clever piece of work. "Suspense.' a Rex, by Lois Weber is another good pie ture. This authors works are too well known to comment on. only to say that this is one of her best. The Tutors is a clever Eclair pro- duction in which the lover plays the role of a professor to win the heart and hand of the girl he loves. The Imp is a double reel subject, the first comedy entitled, Baron Jinks,' a farce with the scenes and characters set in JayvilIe, which is bound to make funny picture. The cartoons by Fly. Myers are exception ally clever and amusing. Owing to the repeated applause H. E. Ransom will continue singing his big song hit The Curse of An Aching Heart" Last but not least. the new Lion orchestra is becoming more popular each day.
