 The news that Mr Wesrervelt is to join the Redmond company will come as a distinct surprise. The young so ciety man made a decided hit in The Marriage of Kitty" the Country club pla. produced by MT.

He laughed at the idea. but was finally prevailed upon and will make his first appear ance with the popular stock company in the clever Rex Beach play.
 Westervelt is the son of MT. and Mrs James WesterVelt of Portland Place. He has been in the west over a year having given up his law course at Princeton to visit his parents in Arizona. He was so delighted with the west that he determined to make his home in Phoenix.
 He is the first member of his fam fly to make the stage his profession although lis mother has shown de- cided cleveIness in producing anna - teur attractions and has appeared frequently as a vocalist. Last year she staged an event for the Trinity Pro-Cathedral assisted by her sor.

Seth Armstrong of Douglas arrived in

 went across the line at Naco to take
 photographs of the late battlefield where the troops of Gales and Villa
 fought They found gruesome objects.

 After they had snapped several of these scenes they were approached by
 couple of Mexicans who represented themselves to be officers, and probably were who took them into custody on the suspicion that they were Villa spies To accentuate this opinion of
 the Americans they gave each of them a swift kick. Then they proceeded to search them.
 They found on Armstrong aoout s6 ard on Hobart s20 and a s6O watch. This was regarded as suspicious ma
 terial and it was held for further in- vestigation The Americans were also deprived of their kodak and were told to beat it across the line On return ing to Naco they laid the matter be- fore the consul there but probably nothing more will be seen of the con- fiscated property.

"THE YELLOW TICKET" AT ELKs

Tonight the Ed. Redmond company will open in the big dramatic thriller, The Yellow Ticket" The play is termed as one that made the civilized world gasp and the daring revelations
 made of the police methods of Russia and the cruel persecution forced upon the Jewish race is one that compel undivided attention and makes the
 true American spirit rebel at the aw- full tortures hurled upon human beings. Marya Varenka the central char acter, is an innocent Jewess who in
 order to escape the police regulations placed on her race applies for The Yellow Ticket in order to go to the bedside of her dying father. In her | innocence she does not know what the ticket implies and when the un- scrupulous Baron learns of her plight 1 he endeavors to force her into the ! life that the ticket calls for.
 Audell Higgins will appear as Mar va. Roscoe Karns as the young Amer | ican, Julian Rolfe and Hugh Metcalfe
 as the Baron. The remaining members will be well cast and with the lavish
 stage settings provided the production by the Redmonds is due for a record week.
