The indictment, came from the son of the reformer who refused to follow his mothers suggestion and married the*f girl he had wronged. in the meantime he took occasion to tell mother a thing or two,
 The merits of the play not being worth discussing, it at least was worth while in that it brought back r to Phoenix two local favorites-charle ing Melba Palmer, who wasn't sup posed to be charming at all, and Audra Alden, who really had too much intelligence to have allowed such a 9thing. Ethel Martelle played the part of mother and gave a per- fectly beautiful talk on the sacred ness of motherhood after the second act. She is splendid elocutionist and the women applauded her round ly. j Ohzyes. women. The matinee was for ladies oplys and they loved it. No men were there not being able to- appreciate the "sacredness of motherhood" it was deemed wise not to admit them at the matinees.
 @' The management apologized for the fact that the settings did not arrive from the coast for the matinee, but it is understood that this particular shortcoming was remedied for the evenings performance. The play will be repeated today and tomorrow.

state, the Maricopa County Dairy mems association, has presented the commissioner concrete suggestions for the handling of dairy products in the following important communication:
 Having every confidence in your in- tegrity and wisdom as a represent ative of the United States govern ment in the regulation and production of food, we hereby offer the follow ing resolution, statements and re- quests.
 Be it, Resolved that we, the Mari copa County Dairymen's association in meeting assembled do hereby re- affirm our allegiance, our loyalty and patriotism to the national government in this terrible war that we are right fully waging and that we further pledge our most earnest and stren- uous efforts to bring it to a success full and speedy conclusion.
 That milk and milk products are among the most essential of foods not even excepting wheat, and that any decrease in it's production would entail suffering on our people, and decrease the efficiency of our armies.
 But that under the present econo- mic conditions our milk herds are in increasing numbers being slaughtered for beef through no lack of sacrifice or patriotism on the part of their owners but on account of circum- stances over which they have no con- trol.
 To prevent a continuation of this receive payment from. the manufac- turer on the first day of each month for all products received in the pre- ceeding month. condition which can only result in an irreparable loss to. our nation. we submit the following requests which we believe are in your power to grant and place in operation. First-We ask for a price to the producer from the manufacturer on milk and cream based on the cost of l production without profit to the pro- ducer to be fixed after due 'intestiga- | tion.
 Second-(a) We. ask for . a :. price | fixed to the consumer after proper in- vestigation based on the cost price tC the producer and a fair profit to the manufacturer with an elimination oi

DANCE IN MIDST
 ALARMS ENJOYED

Twenty distinct and separate fire alarms were sounded last evening to say nothing of several drill calls and one general alarm. There was good reason for each call, and too each alarm brought more enthusiastic and liberal response than any that have been rung in for many months.
 It was the occasion of the twenty third annual ball of the Phoenix fire department. The alarms were sounded on a diminutive tapper and served to announce the various dance numbers of which there were a score and several extras. It was the most novel manner ever employed in this city of announc- ing the dance number coming up.
 Hundreds of Tickets for the big af- fair had been sold in advance Unlike other years, it seemed that nearly all the tickets sold were used for Patrick Hall was crowded to its capacity with one of the merriest parties seen in that dancing room this season. It was 8 happy, good natured crowd that didn't mind a little crowding but insisted or encores for nearly every number. Chic A. F. Wright was there, resplendent with bright buttons and a cheery smile And every member of the paid depart ment that could be spared, tSgethel with host of volunteer firemen, theil wives and sweethearts, were also to bt found among those present.
 As a result of last nights ball { handsome sum of money was realized The proceeds. after all bills are paid will be devoted to the purchase O sweaters and other knitted articles fol the use of the boys on the Battleshil Arizona.

 DANIEL CASE

The case of the state versus Charles Daniel, charged with assault with in- tent to commit murder, was dismissed by Judge Stanford on motion of the county attorney.
 Daniel, who is a tobacco salesman shot J. F. Chapman last September when he is alleged to have discovered the latter in his wife's apartment in the Jefferson hotel.
 After the preliminary at which time the defense offered no testimony, Dan- iel once more appeared in court when Mrs. Daniel brought suit for separate maintenance, which was denied by Judge Lyman. This was one of the most sensational cases ever heard in the local courts and it is understood that rather than have the scandal re- newed Mrs. Daniel refused to return to the city and take the witness stand against Daniel. Her mother, Mrs. C. w. Smith, also came in for a bit of notiriety in the civil action, shortly after which both she and her daughter left the city.

Howard McKent Barnes, so-called drarnatist, is the author of t"Her Un- born Child" and so great is father love that MT. Barnes is not ashamed to recognize his offspring.
 The program of the current Elks attraction gives MT. Barnes, credit for the play which is supposed to deal with the subject of birth control but which fails to treat the big subject sanely.
 The press notices made claim to an ''indictment'-a powerful indictment at that-"of those supposed advanced persons who are seeking to. advance the theory of birth control" The press agent probably never saw the play. Press agents are rather clever
