my Home Town Girl" Plea.e..

my Home Town Girl drew full
house at ''The Cresco" Wednesday
evening in spite of the almost impas-
sible roads, and Cresco is more firmly
fixed than before on the theatrical map,
and Mr.. Kelley, the manager of the
show, who owns and controls three
other attractions equally as good as
"My Home Town Girl tells the Cres-
co opera house management that Cres-
co will always be remembered by him
when booking his shows through this
territory.
"My Home Town Girl gave prob
ably the best satisfaction of any COM
pany since the appearance of High
Jinks,' the opening attraction, and
equalled that in every respect save that
the music was not quite so high class,
but even so it was so catchy and tune
full that there is little room for criti-
cism. The work of the principals, Nc
Intyre and Hyams, was superb, the
former is dainty singer who found
favor with the audience as soon as she
appeared on the stage, while Hyams
with his finished comedy kept the audi
ence in a continual storm Of laughter.
Edna Won Luke scored hit as Madam
Marie, the modiste, with her eccentric
and rather acrobatic tendencies. Roy
Purvience was rather above the average
of musical comedy tenors, and Alma
Youlin, the prima donna, possessed a
voice of richness and power that met
with the hearty approval of the audi
dence. The others in the company
we're up to the high standard set by the
principals, and the costuming and splen-
did stage settings .added much to the
general satisfaction givsealas the com
pany.

JEROME BUTTE ID
 SHIP 0RE SHORTLY.

Considerable interest is being ere Butte Copper company, which has ac- quired control of the Slocum Copper Co, consisting of eighteen claims, twenty-on miles north of Phoenix. ~In addition to the Slocum property the Jerome Butte owns and controls thirty mining claims in the Verde Mining district Yavapai county ly- ing between the Copper Chief and the Green Monster Copper companies
 Surveying and development work is now going on, and the claims are con sidered by the most eminent mining men in the country to be very valu- able and to have excellent prospects for the development of pay ore.
 The Slocum property is well known to people in and around this section of the state, owing 10 the fact that considerable development work. pro- ducing several hundred tons of high grade copper ore, has been done in the past The property has been purchased outright. and extensive work will be started immediately. The shipping of several tons of ore now on the dump 1 will start shortly.
 Assays from the dump show an aver ; age of 17.60 sulphide ore. The organ ization will be composed of the lead ing business men and capitalists of Phoenix. R. l.. Maxwell, together
 with s. c. Kingsbury have been in Phoenix for the past few days arrang ing and perfecting details of organi-
 zaton. It is now their plan to incor- porate the company during the first week of the New Year under the laws of the state of Arizona, and upon the granting of a permit by the corpora tiaon commission will issue 100000 shares of treasury stock. Severs

 Something had to be done-and l had not called her practical Patty for nothing. The first day her brother was out of bed most of the towns people received cards. Said cards announced that Patty would be glad to make cakes, pies, candies and pre- serves-to order--for anyone who was willing to pay for good work.
