REVIVAL SERVICES
 OPEN AT TEMPE

Despite a hard days trip from Tue son. Rev. T. B. Price and Rev. C. N. Guice, who are to lead the church people in union eVangelistic meet ing, arrived in Tempe Tuesday night and opened the campaign with most interesting service. Mir. Price is one of the most clear cut and forceful preachers that Tempeans have ever heard. while Mir. Guice is certainly one of the most inspirational of so- loists as well as leader of chorus that has no superior.
 The opening service was introduce tory to the series and the evangelist preached most logical and reaching sermon on "The Sane Revival" show ing that sanity and clearness of thought are as important to effect i've evangelism as is emotionalism.
 The solo by Mir Guice won the audience at the very outset and his
 way of getting the people to sing is remarkable. The song service proved feature. MT. Guice has an exceptionally clear and feeling voice, full of tone quality and expressive sweetness.
 Yesterday afternoon the first after noon service was held and the preacher delivered a suggestive and helpful sermon on prayer. Tn intro ducing the afternoon services the evangelist stressed the fact that these are to be as important as any of the services that they will begin promptly , at 30 and last for but one hour. It

MIDGETS ARRESTED IN SiNGA
 DOPE

The group of Midgets who are giv- ing their show at the Majestic have an interesting experience which they tell as having happened to them in Singapore. China. Singapore is an English port and when the company arrived in port they were arrested and placed in jail awaiting investi- gation. The arrest was caused by the nationality of one of them, he being German. They were soon released but forbidden to land and as they could not get into Germany, the com pany came on to America and ar ranged the. present tour. The com ical part of this affair lies in the stature of the parties alleged to have been arrested. The twins, seventeen years old. are not larger than the average four year old child and the remainder could not see over a yard stick without tiptoeing. They might make pretty good spies if they wished because they could almost crawl through a key hole As it is they are merely travelling performers with d unique and entertaining show. They played to a crowded house at the Majestic last evening. They claim the only female midget contortionist in the world and the smallest men in the world The seventeen year old 1 twins weigh % lhs. each, and either ! one lifts with his teeth a weight of "A lbs.

EVANS vs. MESA HIGH BASEBALL

A group of school boys were scan ming yesterdays Republican and grumbling as they read. Tt isn't in here at all" Inquiry developed the fact that they were disgruntled be- cause the base ball game of Tuesday afternoon had been missed by the re- porter. It further developed that these seekers after publicity were not the Mesa High team but that of the Evans School. The reason therefor seemed to be that said Evans aggregation had walloped Mesa high by a score of twelve to four. The high school boys are rather blue but are in sisting that there is a hereafter. The Evans team will meet Phoenix High in Mesa next Saturday.

is important that the men of the city turn out to these meetings for they are to provide the inspiration and suggestion for the evening service as well as instruct the church people in their duties as Christians. Mir Guice will sing solo every afternoon.
 There will be a service at two this afternoon and then tonight at 7:30 MT, Price will preach on The Spirit of Unity Among Churches;" this is subject with which the speaker is especially familiar as he is secretary of the Federation of Christian Work CTS. containing some two hundred forty preachers representing all de- nominations. He has also conducted union services in nearly every state in the union. MT Price has a way of expressing his thoughts that is most convincing and satisfying He is fear less and says just what he thinks and the occasion or subject may demand. While not sensational there is no lack of boldness and frankness, with a touch of unique and homely phrase ology at times that makes everything as plain as expression in language permits.
 Everybody that has had the priv ilege of attending one service has wanted to have the preacher continue his sermon and the soloist to sing again. They have already captivated the town and everybody is talking meeting. The services are all being held in the Methodist church and all
 the Protestant people of Tempe are cooperating

SUDDEN DEATH OF
 THEODORE W. OTIS
Well Known Pioneer and Former Postmaster of Prescott, Died Sud-
 denly in Mesa Hotel

Theodore w. Otis, a rancher living two miles south of Gilbert died Tues day night at the Palm house in this place. With him at the time of his death were his daughter. Mrs. E. M. Blake and her husband Mr. Otis had not been very well of late and they had come to take him with them for stay at the Blake home in Ray. Getting as far as Mesa they were held up by the washouts on the Arizona Eastern and were resting in the hotel waiting for an opportunity to pro- ceed, when the end came.
 T. w. Otis was eighty years of age at the time of his death His birth place was Ramona, New York, but he had been living in Arizona since 1874 These fOrty-four years placed his en- try into this state in the troublous days of frontier life when white men were few and dangers were frequent
 MT. Otis represented splendidly that fast disappearing type of the hardy, self dependent, fearless, manly men who moulded Arizona into a common wealth of law and order. He was engaged in the mercantile business in Prescott until about seven years ago and was for many years the post master in that city. His wife died about four years since and was bur jed in Prescott. The only child is Mrs. E. NJ. Blake. He had been for

PROGRESS ON SEWER WORK

Work on the excavation for the sewer goes steadily forward. There are yet approximately seventeen blocks to eXcavate besides about three miles of outfall work While the greater part of the eXcavating as to extent has been completed, that re- maining has some very deep digging as it will include the sewers leading from the basements of the stores. The contractors are working two eight hour shifts and it is probable that two or three months will be required for the remainder of the work

 DRAINAGE J0B
Contract for Construction of Drainage System South of Tempe Goes to Watson & Spicer-WOrk to Begin Within 60 Days.

At meeting of the directors of the Tempe drainage district Tuesday afternoon the contract for the con- struction of the proposed drainage ditch was let to the firm of Watson and Spicer of Los Angeles at price of about S45,000. Their exact bid was 15c per cubic yard for excavation and $14.00 per cubic yard for the concrete work, while but a margin of s2S1 be- low was the bid of w. E. Callahan of Omaha, Nebraska. at 13 3-4c per cubic yard for excavation and Sl7.95 for the pany of Fl Paso bid 1928 cents per yard on the excavation and $500 per yard on the concrete work.
 Farmers of the district and people in this section generally will hear with Gladness that the contract has been let, for according to the contractors who were here at the time they were awarded the job it means work will be under way within the next sixty days and that the job will be completed within probably years time. With the new drainage ditch in it will mean the restoration to productiveness of more than nine thousand acres and there is little doubting that even greater area will be benefited.
 It is estimated that there will be about 223,000 yards of dirt to remove and practically all of this will be handled with machines. The concrete work, bridging under canals. across roads and the like will amount to over 1000 yards.
 The proposed ditch will be about eight miles in length and will take diagonal course across the area em- braced in the district. starting at the northwest corner of section 35, two miles east of Tempe
 C. A. Spicer and his firm partner, Watson. who were at the meeting, left last night for Los Angeles and will start preparations at once to com mence their new job here.
