DOROTHY OONNELLY IS
 GREAT IN THE THEFT

When Dorothy Donnelly appears at the Lamara theater today in Henri Hernstein's great drama, The Thief" it will give otPhkoenix the atergoers an opportunity not only to see a great play. but one of this Cuuntrys foremost actresses in the leading role Few plays by this great French dramatist have equaled The Thief" in it he is at his very best. When it was produced at the Lyceum tEeater nNew York the late Kyrle Bellew was chosen to play the hus band and Margaret Ellington tO play the leading female part. In every way Miss Donnelly is superior to the ere ator of the role. in fact, with the pos sible exception of Madame N" Miss Donneliy has never appeared to such great advantage as she does in this picture. It is d tremendous part one of the greatest ever written for a woman. and the reviews of the picture indicate that it is equally effective in film as it was on the stage.
 The plot revolves around beauu- ful woman who loves fine clothes and jewelry and steals in order to get them Her husband is accused, but she saves him by confessing.

 No doubt you are aware of the ter rible calamity that occurred in this community on the night of the 14th, when the Lyman reservoir dam broke Many of the people were left homeless and penniless absolutely destitute. Al though crippled financially. the people here have furnished clothing and food to their more unfortunate neighbors. But if you can obtain relief to help them rebuild their homes it would be deeply appreciated.
 Thresa was one of the sufferers. While she has found a home with us, there are others who are not so for tunate

 Judge Lewis T. Carpenter, speaking on the prospects of securing the Moose sanitarium for the Salt River valley told of the work of that order and of the need of such an institution for it's members and the many others who would be helped by it. The climate here, ne said was more perfectly adapted for the successful treatment of tuberculos- is than any other place in the country and he urged the Rotarians to co-op- crate in every way to secure the sani tarum for this valley. At the clase of his speech, a motion instructing the publicity committee of the club to ad vance the proposition through The Ro- tartan, the national magazine of the Rotary clubs of the world, was passed unanimously. Dr. R. R. Brownfield acted as chairman of the meeting.

 NEW YORK. April 23.-Higher pric- es for some of the less prominent cop pers, together with revival of ac- tiVity in war industrials and equip ments. imparted a semblance of steadi- ness to the stock market, but the un- dertone was mostly irregular. Trad ing was on a reduced scale with ire quent pauses. Pressure was again di- rected against the speculative favorites but without much effect. Some lower grade railways, whose financial con dition is admittedly precarious, regist- cred decidedly lower prices. Motors tobaccos. petroleums and sundry other specialties declined from two to eight points.
 Holland. which holds large amounts of American railway securities of a minor class. was said to have liquidat- ed some of these issues, in turn buying coppers. Large copper producers again advanced the price of their commodity, 1874 cents pound being quoted for pros 'pective heavy consignments to Eng land. Signs of continued improvement in transportation conditions were seen in the earnings of the Southern Pacific and Baltimore and Ohio. for March The former made q net gain of $341 000 the latter $277,000. Bank clearings de- noted an expansion of mercantile busi- ness at leading points.
 Total sales of stocks amounted to 634. .000 shares.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales represented par value of $4,760.O00.
