The Brightest Spot In Phoenix"

The busiest spot in Phoenix today is at the western end of "Theater
 Alley" First Avenue and Adams street where the new Columbia the ater is under construction. Great gangs of men are working here night and day and the corner is as busy as hive. Not only is the theater being rushed; but the new Hulett drug store which is to be a wonder of modern-store construction and beauty is being hustled into shape and across the street new fronts are being put in the building on the corner.
 The management of the Columbia theater has chosen for slogan ''The Brightest Spot in Phoenix" and if they carry out even half of what they have planned they will make good in this one particular at least, and the roster of men behind it sup plies an absolute guaranty of good faith
 Everything that can be done to make the place comfortable and at tractive is being done and the the ater will sure be a beautiful one. while the vaudeville acts to be pre- sented will be of a class that cannot but draw bis audiences. A big ven tilating plant is being installed which will insure coolness al all times. The motto over the door of the theater will be. No matter how hot the day may be. the temperature here is i3 and Manager Hart says he wishes it distinctly understood that it goes.
 The theater hopes to open for business on May 1lth and it's open ing will offer four of the biggest acts ever seen in Arizona. In addi- tion to the vaudeville acts there will he three first run exclusive pictures --one of them the Universal Week ly.'' the worlds news in motion views. the balance high grade comedy films There will also be the Columbia La dies Military Orchestra in a program that ranges from classic to popular

 on Monday night the audience at the Singers Club concert was cleo srified by the magnificent playing of Miss Claire Canom. She is an ex- cepsionally fine pianist with remark stle technique: nothing more, brilli- ani than her playing of the difficult I.iszt "Tarantelle" has been heard in Phoenix since we have been here. It Is strange that so gifted a musician should hot have been heard more often during the winter It ,isia ire qacnt complaint that we have no opportunities to hear fine artists and good music in Phoenix. and vet in Miss Canon and Claude Gotthelf we have two pianists living and working right here with us who are infinitely superior to fifty per cent of. those who are heard in the large cities.
 Young, exceptionally talented and with most attractive personality Miss Canon has II bright future to lock forward to, a future which will take her far from Phoenix and make her known in the big musical centers.

Miss Griffen's portrayal was a Won- derfully attractive piece of work, a little classic which would nave adorned any professional stage. The characer was peculiarly fitted to her personality and she filled it with an ingenious freshness and charm and naviette that carried all before it.

 David Bispham Is Coming to Town
 No the season is not over, even if we did think it was. The most not : able musical event Of the season has Just betH dTTdlScQ TOT DN Eugene Redewill and it is nothing less than the engagement of David Bispham, the world famous baritone to appear here in concert on the 18th of next month.
 When MT ReGewil was giving a series of concerts by famous artists last year he tried to get Bispham at that time: but owing to conflicting dates he was unable to appear Now. however. arrangements have been de- finitely heard and the great baritone will visit us and sing, Danny Dee- yer" and Edward" and also give Poe's The Raveny"
 He is SO well known that it is hardly necessary to give him an ex- tended notice. The mere name Of Bispham sends a thrill through music lovers; for many many years he has ranked among the greatest artists that America has given to the world and he is known and honored on every continent. His appearance here will be the greatest treat that has been offered to Phoenix in many moons and he will no doubt be re- ceived by an audience as large as that which greeted Mime. Nordica last season. Remember the date. May 26

 Now the typ,e. of life and resorts which are portrayed in these little plays are much more blatantly eX- hibited in Chicago than in New York Far be it from us to claim that New York IS free from things ef this kind: but in it's resorts at beast it is circumspect. while Chicago saps one in the face with them on her show streets. and it is amusing to hear of the windy city criticisins New York's morals.
