Tom Williams Hanged.

The execution of Tom Williams BY
hanging in the Jail yard last Friday
noon was conducted in most solemn
ly dignified manner as became an
event of such Importance as the talk
ing of human life by the State.
The crowd began to gather early
IN the morning and by the time OF
the execution it is estimated that full
ly 1000 We're on hand Williams was
attended by his spiritual advisor, the
pastor of colored Methodist church,
and was baptised in the Jail shortly
after nine o'clock. Before the march
to the scaffold he was also visited by
Rev. P. Q. Cason and Rev. DR.. Now
lin, the evangelist, who gave him such
spiritual comfort as they could.
Once on the scaffold Williams at
tempted to speak to the gathered null
titude, but his voice could not be heard
and his remarks were conveyed to
the people by DR.. Nowlin. Williams
confessed his guilt of the crime for
which he was about to pay penalty
and advised his hearers to shun drink
and evil companions. He expressed
the belief that his sins had been for
given. When all was ready the trag
was sprung. The fall was nine fee
and Williams neck was broken. D,
Steen said that his pulse ceased t,
beat in nineteen minutes after the
crop. His body was turned over tt
Undertakers Mooney & Davis for bu-
rial. |
The crowd stood in absolute silence
during the moments Immediately pre-.
ceeding the drop, then shrugged and
gave a short breath of relief, then as
quietly departed. They had witness !
ed an awful sight.
The condemned man spoke a num-
Der of times before his death of the
many kindnesses shown him by Sher-
# Kennerly and Deputy Gibson, both
IT whom made him as comfortable
rs possible and granted his every wish
'ut one. Sheriff Kennerly refused |
lin a barber to shave and cut his
lair just before hanging. He thought

Arizona republican., 1914-10-25
By Maitland Davies.

Popular as ii was last winter danC- ing is bound to be the all absorbing topic of the coming season, for with the advent of Mir. and Mrs J. Mur- ray Anderson Phoenix has two of the worlds really great artists. They come to spend the winter here. and although Mir. Anderson has not yet made his plans public, they will unquestionably be most important factor in the seasons amusements.
 The Andersons rank among the foremost dancers of the day and Phoenix may consider itself fortu- nate to number them among her citi- zens, even if it is only for a season.
 On Thursday night the first "Fac- ulty Recital" of the season will take place by the Arizona School Of Music The artists taking part will be William Conrad. Mills, tenor. di- rector of the Votal department; Miss Georgia Lucas, pianist a new mem her of the faculty this season. and Miss Nellie A. Teasdale, accompaniat
 MT. Mills will sing group of the old songs that are familiar and ia nous throughout the world, includ- ing Then You'll Remember Me" Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes and Tostis Goodbye" In ad- dition to this group, which is on the lrogram by request, he will sing Von Felitz' beautiful cycle "Eliland"
 Eliland' tells, in a series of un- usually beautiful songs, of the love of a young abbott for a novice in q convent across the way. In musical value and balance this series of songs IS superior to almOnst any cycle we know of The story is well told
Arizona republican., 1914-10-25

and nothing that V0n Felitz has ever written is of greater merit. l. will appeal to any lover of music and should not be missed. MT Mills will sing it in costume. Five quatrains from the Rubiat of Omar Khayyan, set to music by James H. Rogers, will be another number on his pro Eram.
 Miss Lucas, who is making he first public appearance in Phoenix, will play among other things the sonata. Opus !, in r. minor of Gries, one of his carly and characteristic compositions; another number will be Strauss "Gcschicten aus dem Winor Wald," concert .paraphraae by Schutt of the famous waltz f. . niliarly known as Whispers From the Vienna Woods"
 The faculty recitals at the school were one of the most enjoyable fea- lures of last seasons musical work and they bid fair to repeat their success again this year.

 Princess Changes
 The little Princess theater, which for the past two seasons has been thrilling and shocking New York theatergoers by the gruesome and very naughty plays that have held it's boards, opened new season last week and at tie same time turned over new leaf The bill still consists of a number of one act plays. five in this instance: but the horrors of the Grand Guignol have been reles ated to the background and a reign of cleanliness and artistry takes it's place and critical New York has apparently placed the stamp of it's ap- proval on the change.
 "Phipps.' satire on English so-

ciety by Stanley Houghton heads the bill. It tells of Sir Gerald and Lady Fanny who quarrel because the lady wants jewel and husband will not give it to her, therefore she wants d divorce but has no grounds on which to secure one. Enter "Phipps", the butler, he is appealed to for advice and suggests that Lady Fanny should run away with him, he has long adored her etc, etc. Disgust on the part of both husband and wife and curtain on a happy pair, husband having bestowed the longed for jewel and wife having promised to ask for nothing more inside of six months. All the critics seem to delight in the clever lines of the play and the splendid acting of the cast.
 Next comes The Cat and the Cherub,' a Chinese drama which some of us will remember as having

commendation from both press and public it seems to be tine culmina
 tion of years of steadily increasing artistry and hard work and stamps him as one of the foremost character actors of the day.
 "Mr. Wu" comes to the Maxine Elliott theatcr in New York via a two years run in London, and it has thrilled the big town in q manner new and different from anything else that has been presented this season. Briefly it is story of murder and immortality. The daughter of a Chinese mandarin has been ruined by q young Englishman; when her father discovers it he kills her with the sword of his venerated ancestors and then sets out to get even. He imprisons the betrayed and sets about he ruin of his family. After destroying the business of the father he induces the mother of the boy to visit him-alone, on the preteXt thIt he will restore her son to her In a very broad but marvelously tense and well acted scene he is about to dishonor the woman, but in drinking

"Chin-Chin."
 Another Chinese affair has scored a big hit in New York, the brand est newest of the season, unless Life" scored one last night In this affair, however, there are no heart breaks, for it is written on, around, over and under Fred Stone and Dave Montgomery Naturally, being q Montgomery and Stone affair, it IS tt the Glooe theater, also, naturally, it is 2 big success. There are a lot of people in the cast and bunch of kiddies, of course; but the only one that really matters is Fred Stone, the india rubber man" He danced. That sums it all Up. No human oe- ing can compare with Fred Stone when he dances and no other human can conceive the dances that he does. it matters not whether he dances oh his hands, his head, or on one or two feet, he is the wonder of the dancing world. Someone once asked Stone if he danced the Tango; he answered: No, the music interrupts my stride and the girls get in my way" but on the opening night of Chin Chin" his

 From the various reviews enc gathers that MT.

 Diplomacy.
 The revival of Victoricn Sardou's famous drama "Diplomacy" bl Charles Frohman, with William Gil lette, Blanche Bates and Marie Doro in the leading roles, was the most important event of last week First produced at Wallack's theatre in 1878 the old play still stands as a wonder of stagecraft and q monument to the man who wrote it.
 Not only the play. but the cast c"eat"1 world of interest for it brought about the return to the stage of William Gillette after several

Frohman's move as well as in the play, and there was warm welcome for everybody straight from the hearts of loyal Broadway. Strange, But True.

The third time, , which was the last season, couple of Hebrews named Potash and Perl mutter were doing a thriving busi- ness in the cloak and suit trade, and now they are selling soap.

 Buy a Box of Candy.
 Donald Brian is peeved-justly so. too He cannot see why they are making such a fuss about this Buy q Bale of Cotton proposition, and feels that it would be much more to the point if the slogan were switched to Buy a Box of Candy" especially if Montreal Canada. were made the Headquarters of the movement.

TAXPAYERS FAVoRlTE.

For a number of years the citizens
of Idaho have been approached by pol
iticians of all parties at every election
/ by candidates for state Office who
have told the voters OF the burdens of
taxation and promised. if elected. to
relieve the people by passing such
laws as would at least cut the taxes a
quarter If not thirty per cent.
Many Of the voters have Rved in the
state for years and bi-ennially heard
this argument from political plat
forms and read it in campaign liter
allure and In vain. No relief has
come. There is candidate for the
nomination for governor on the Dem
ocratic ticket who is declaring that IL
elected taxes viii be reduced 80 per
cent and continues his salesman-like
speech without giving the people any
definite way or legislative program by
which he expects to make this Won
derful though needed reform. This
year Is one in which candidate will
he absolutely required to give an eX-
pllcit feasible and business-lile state
meut of how he expects to reduce the
taxes and by what means this is to be
carried out. In other words. the voters
are going to listen not to the political
OF ohlce-seekehs but to the
absolute common sense and business
like surety Of reduction Of taxes.
Not only is this true but the fact is
recognized by all. that the voters, re-
gardless Of party affiliations, are pros
pecting in Idaho to find candidate
who first OF all has the brains to out
line program Of economic develop
opment of our state and business
like platform. which IL enacted into
law. will reduce the taxes without
hampering the growth of the common
wealth. and also have the nerve and
executive ability to carry it through.
From all sections of the state where
the voters have had the opportunity of
reading the personal platform of J. NJ. /
