The Ready Pistol.

In one of James Lane Aliens
novels the distinguished author sati.
rizes the pistol toting habit in old
Kentucky, and he said that the prac-
tice of carrying weapons to avenge
real and fancied insults had gone so
far that a man could not blow his
hose without endangering his life.
1f'this humorous illustration is ap-
piled to case where two men on
bad terms happen to meet. it might
be entirely within the bounds of
probability. Whenever homicide
takes place, usual defence is to say
that the victim thrust his hand to his
hip pocket ostensibly for a weapon.
1t may be proven that the dead man,
as matter of fact, did not have a
gun in his pocket, but such is the
latitude and liberIlity granted the de-
fendant in plea of self-defence that
jury will often acquit him of a
murder charge on a fimsy and ridi-
culous ground like this.
Pistol toting is habit that the law
seems powerless to break up. Secrecy
OF course, is the protection the person
enjoys who carries an array of light
artillery about him, but in his power
to do harm and to spill innocent
'ood there is no class of lawbreakers
who can surpass him. The brave
man does not need a pistol to defend
his character. If he is the right sort
of man and behaves himself he can
blow his nose in peace without fear
of having some nearby enemy plug
him full of holes. Anderson Intelli-
gencer.

THE SPOILERS" IS
 4 GREAT PICTURE
Film Version Of Rex Beach's Well Known Novel Comes Up to and Surpasses All Expectations at
 the Arizona Theater

It is not often that a Phoenix picture theater puts over two big feature sue cesses as "Cahiria" and The Spoilers" within few weeks of each other; but that is what the Arizona has managed to do.
 The film version of Rex Beach's nov el Is one of the most intensely inter- esting pictures which has been shown in Phoenix this winter. It is a wonder ful handling of great big theme and the scenic effects are truly remarkable.
 With the scenes taken in the great Alaskan country where the plot of the story is laid some wonderful pictures have been secured and they all ring true. The big fight scene has been press agented to a finish; but for once il has not been oVerdone, all that has been said of it is true. It is a real thriller. the kind of a fight that lifts an audience out of their seats and leaves one gasping for breath at the finish.
 The story is So well known that there is no use repeating it: but it would be hard to find a better type for Gleinster than William Farnum, he was made for this part and as Cherry. Katherine Williams was most happily cast It is none too long. It holds the intaeest from the first foot of film to the last and will unquestionaby prove one of the biggest successes the Arizona has ever had.

If there is a spot where Christianity and Brotherhood is need ed, it is right here on this spot of Gods Green earth
 The liquor question and it's twin evil impurity came in for q severe con demnation and the absence of the beCkOning hand of the saloon in PhOe- nix was warmly commended. He made the prediction that in five years the city of Washington would be made dry through action of congress.
 He had been told. he said there was no apparent need of educational feat uros being connected with the F'o
 Y. he could plainly see the reason for that, when he looked at the magnifi- cent schools erected all over the city, and their presence made one willing to bring his family here and entrust their education to these institutions but the question of educating the thousands of young men of the industrial class in the crowded sections of the east was one of the greatest works being carried on by the association at the present time in that section of the country.
 Tn this connection he said, No one knows the future of Phoenix. Hordes of homeless Belgians may pour into this country and this valley will re ceiVe their share of them. In such an event, there would be hundreds of young men needing the environment and education that the Y. NJ. C. A. could alone furnish them Phoenix may become d great industrial center, no one knows the future of this won derful valley"
 'I bring you nothing but message of hope, of optimism and of good cheer said MT Cooper in speaking of the business depression that has af- fccted the finances of the majority of the associations all over the country Taken as a whole the fiscal year just closing has been more prosperous than the one preceding"
 In conclusion he thanked the people of Phoenix for the warm hospitality extended himself and his friend Mir Van Scoten. expressed gratitude to Gov. Hunt for his warm reception yes terday morning and remarked that this extension of hospitality was one of the characteristics of the western people.

The new company which came to the Coliseum last night will have hard time living up to the standard set by the Ellis Musical Comedy company which proceeded. It would be hard for any company to follow that collection of faVorites.
 Two very large houses turned out to see the Broadway HoneymoOners in Along Broadway and the conA Adians succeeded in gathering quite q crop of laughs. Neither the chorus nor the costuming came up to requirements. There will have to be big change in both before the company can hope to succeed.

and they all add to rather than take away from the interest and everybody who liked the stage version will thor oushly enjoy the film story.
 The characters are all well handled and the settings are much more elab- crate and pretentious than they could be made on the stage. From any point of view 1t is d splendid picture, easily one of the best seen here this season. and it should go a long way to estab- fish the reputation of the Columbia as picture house.

Thos. Jefferson at the Lion

Today for one day only, the Lion theater presents Thos. Jefferson in "The Fencing Master" This is a fine drama enacted by a strong cast, in
 Cluding besides Thos Jefferson, Teddy Sampson, George Walsh and Frank Bennett. The scenes are laid in France and all the settings are artistic and re- alistic The story of the paralyZed fencing master who is reused to a point where he IS able to fight a duel with M Maroda makes an interesting plot and the acting of the principals is far above the average and is photoplaY well worth seeing. Two other good films are shown today one called "Competition' features Vivian Rich and is an exceptionally good film. The Keystone comedy "A Lucky Leap" is much better than usual and contains many Imaginable stunts. This program is shown today only and tomorrow pretty little Dorothy Gish will be seen in 'Minerva's $ Mission" a two reel com edy-drama that just suits Miss Cish and will be an enjoyable offering.

Bear And Cow To
 Compete In Contest
 With Mouth Organ

New York, July 1e.-Head Keeper William Snyder of the Central Park zoo yesterday announced his latest offering to internatdonaI sport and ani- mal 1overs--a competitive mouth or gan concert in which the contestantA will be Goshen N- r.. Jersey COW and a H1na1ayan sloth bear
 The bear, Zip, is an inmate of the bear cage in Central Park and will uphold the title for the city. He is being trained under the guidance of his keeper, Jimny Coyle. Owing to his penduIous lower lip provided for the absorption of ants. but equally adaptable to the requirements of the mouth organ it is believed by both Snyder and Coyle that with develop ment he will prove 8 winner.
 The Goshen cow is the property of a friend of relative of CoyIe's, whose local reputation excited Coyle to Jealousy on his last visit to Goshen and caused the contest to be arrang- ed. The exact date of the concert says Bill Snyder. depends on the rapidity with which Zip's latent musf- caIAta1ent is developed.

It was plain that Justice Hendriok. took the most intense interest in what was re- garded as the final battle for the free dom of Thaw. Earlier, before Dr. Flint took the stand at all. Justice Hendrick took occasion to say to the reporters present that he had been misquoted and misrepresented as to remark he was-reported to have made.
 It was stated in the published re- ports that the justice had said, after Thaw had answered one question, that he had answered fully and sane1y."- Some of the newspapers in- dicated that the remark was signih- can't This the court emphatica1ly denied. Justice Hendrick said, "I have no objection to the newspaper com ments on this trial as far as they are anywhere within the lines of truth, but you gentlemen must not sit down there and guess at what is said on g. vital thing like that. and want to say to you gentlemen of 6the jury, if you read that, never made use of such an expression and that the papers which do that are in contempt of this coI1rt.'s
