NORMAL STUDENTS WILL
 GIVE SHAKESPEARE PLAY

Shakespeare's plays are being giv- en all over the United States more this year than ever before-not only for their dramatic value, but to cele- brate the three hundredth anniversary of Shakespeare's birth. Plays that can live for three hundred years are worth seeing. In Flagstaff however the opportunity is seldom offered. The Normal school nevertheless has caught the spirit of Shakespeare's true dram attic art and in the near future will give "The Comedy of Errors" the first Shakespearian play ever given by home talent in Flagstaff.
 Even though the cast that gives this play is amateur it is by no means inexperienced. These people have had five years of practice under ex- cellent coaching. They began work on this play before Christmas and have been doing conscientious work ever since under the direction of Mr Thorpe, whose abilily in dramatic work has often been shown in home talent plays.
 The seniors of the Normal school are responsible for the rare treat that the people of Flagstaff are sure to have in "The Comedy of Errors" Clarence Pulliam, Mary Hanley, Bue- ma Hilty and Cecil Windes of this cast are among others of standing fame in Flagstaff's amateur acting. The play is truly a comedy of errors and is a true representative of our greatest dramatist to weave series of mix ups" and strange condolences into a drama so humorous, so full of intense interest that an audience is held from beginning to end.
 7 No one can afford to miss this worthy production. Be sure to watch for date and further particulars.

MRS. KELLY SEEMS ID HAVE
 LONG RECORD OF TROUBLE

More correspondence on the pecu- liar case of Mrs. James Kelly, who appealed for aid here in finding her illiterate husband, supposed to have disappeared after promising to meet her in this city, has been received by the charity department of the Civic Betterment league. At Mrs. Kelly's request Secretary Reed wrote to La Junta, to where Mrs. Kelly sent SEQ for her daughters fare from there to Arizona. Today he got an answer from George McCauley, county clerk and recorder at La Junta, who, like the sheriff at Topeka, Kansas, doesn't take Mrs. Kelly's troubles seriously. The S20 referred to, it is believed now, reached Mrs. Kelly in this city. She said nothing about it and the aid as- sociation helped her to get to Las Vegas.
 Mir McCauley says Mrs. Kelly and her daughter have given much trouble to officers in his part of Colorado. They have been working" he writes, through that district of the state for several years. The daughter accused the mother of trying to steal her children and the mother accused the daughter of trying to steal her hus- band. Some trouble was spoken of by Mrs. Kelly here, the husband re- ferred to being former one; not Kelly.
 Mir. McCauley writes that the char itable organizations of La Junta and the county have several times bought railroad tickets for the women "to get rid of them" He says that when ever he hears they are in town now he notifies charitable organizations "to let them alone, as they are not de- serving of assistance. ."-Albuquerque Journal.

NEARLY HALF THE STATE OF ARIZONA
 RESERVED FOR INDIANS AND FORESTS

the mineral rights be not included Although it was in Smiths home country, he never communicated with his constituents on the subject, and let the bureaucrats in the Indian ser vice grab 300 acres of land for each man, woman and child in the Papago tribe, which numbers about 6,000 or less.
 Moeur Protests
 The only man who raised his voice in righteous protest was w. A. Moeur, state land commissioner. When he learned of the purpose of Sells to grab one-half of the best agricultural and grazing lands of Pima county for the Papagoes southwest of Tucson many of them nomadic Indians from the Mexican side, he wrote a lengthy letter, pointing out the absurdity of the proceeding and the extent to which Arizona is given over to reser- vations of every description. He pointed out that of 72,S57 500 acres of land in Arizona, 17,637 ,05S acres were already included in Indian reser. vations exclusive of the proposed re, servation; 13,318,700 in forest re serves, 600,000 in national monuments rife ranges and other reserves, mak ing a total of 31,555,750 acres, ol about 43.3 per cent of the whole state Of the remaining lands over one-halt are unsurveyed and incapable of being cultivated. This leaves only one fourth, and as about half of this i. taken up with railroad grants, scril locations, Indian allottments outsid, of reserves, and settlers, only one eighth of the land in Arizona is oper to selection by the state. Mir. Moeul argued that the creation of the new reserve would greatly retard the de velopment of Pima county and tha entire section of the state.
The Coconino sun., 1916-02-18

The new Papago Indian reservation contains over half of the land in Pima county, outside of forest reserve.
 Embraces 3,100,000 acres, of which 2,S24,O0 are in Pima county.
 Will provide 800 acres of land for every man, woman and child of the Papago tribe.
 Includes within its limits some of the best agricultural land in Pima county.
 Practically half of the land in Ari- zona is now included in Indian, forest or other reserves.
 Half of the remaining land or one fourth, is unsurveyed and cannot be cultivated.
 Half of the remaining one-fourth is already occupied by Indians to whom lands have been allotted in severalty, railroad grants, scrip locations and settlers.
 The new reservation includes thirty townships, or 69O,O0O acres, for which the state land department applied, outside of school sections.
 The state land commissioner strenu- ously opposed the isuance of the ex- ecutive order setting aside this vast reservation.
 Stockmen grazing cattle on the new reserve will be forced to pay $40 per head to the government.
 Senators Asleep
 There is no evidence that the inter- ests of the people of Tucson as a whole, or the cattlemen or the county were ever considered by Mir. Sells or his subordinates. The two senators Smith and Ashurst, and Congressman Hayden, knew of the purpose of the president to create the reservation, on the recommendation of Sells but raised no protest except to ask that

Hughes Off On Stumpiog Tour;
Will Win the WeSt--f0r Wilson

[By Perry Arnold, United Press
staff correspondent
NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-Republican
Nominee Hughes started his stump
ing tour today. 1t will carry him
/ across the country to the Pacific coast
and back again. with few days
vacation sandwiched in between times
at some spot in Glacier National
Park, Mont.
Originally Candidate Hughes plan
ned a dignihed speaking tour with
set appeals for votes in only a dozen
or so Of the big cities enroute to the
Pacific coast. He expects to remain
a day or so in each Of these large
cities conferrng with local leaders,
But the moment he announced a
transcontinentai tour he began being
borbarded with appeals from Repub-
licans for speeches in t:te;r home
town5-and today it appeared that
Hughes would do a regula- barn
storning' tour-a rear platform
speeches and all.

established precedent for hvel:ness
in transcontinental tours and with
Hughes ability as a campaigner his
friends were betting today he would
equal, if not bette, the Rooseveit;an
record for strenuosity III speaking

imous in the matter Of endorsing a
candidate for United States senator.
Needing the advice of Governor Hi
ram Johnson that the Progressives
organize within the party they choose
to support in the presidential cleo
ton, many OF those admirers OF the
governor will see to having his can
didacy endorsed by the Democrats.
Francis J. Heney, who is coming at
the head of big delegation from
Southern California, may oppose this
endorsement and as he is admittedly
power in the party, there may be
a lively skirmish as prelude to the
campaign.
