It is really treat, aside from the tremedous enter taining value of the feature, to watch these two children as they go through scenes with Il the artistic skill of the scenes with all the artistic skill of the is but five years of age, and his charm t-g little leading lady is two years his junior. When one considers this fact, in conjunction with their wonder ful display of histronic ability, it is truly marvellous, and one can readily understand the pronounced success which has greeted their appearance throughout the nation. Even Jack the Bean Stalk was shown at the Lamara recently, it hung up a house record. Babes in the Woods" has proven even better attraction, if that were possible. It may be that the story is more widely known, or it may be that it is more popular, but what ever the cause, this production seems to have struck the greatest favor, and the two starlets have firmly entrenched themselves in the hearts of a doting public. Today will absolutely close the engagement which will give way to- morrow to Paramount's production of Arms and the Girl" featuring Billie Burke.

In the case of the small or mines. their production is in excess Jf normal, he stated.
 When asked whether there had been any talk lately of the removal of the troops from Globe Mr. Myers replied that there had been some talk to thai effect recently, but that there was strong opposition to the removal of the .roops.
 A wrong impression had beer gained, declared Mir. Myers, concerning Inc number of men who had regis tered, according to agreement, fol employment at the mines after the settlement of the strike by the presi- dents mediation commission. Not nearly so many men had thus regis tered as had been generally supposed outside of Globe.

One of the largest audiences present at a concert this season gathered tt the Indian school yesterday afternoon to listen to the regular monthly con- cert of the Indian school band. The perfect afternoon made it an especially enjoyable event, one that is steadily growing in popularity.
 The band under the direction of P. A. Venne, bandmaster is showing marked improvement with each concert, a fact that was generally commented on yes terday. Each number on the program was hberally applauded and the en- cores were generous, so much so that the program was almost doubled in length. Probably the most striking fea- ture of the program was the closing number. The Star Spangled Banner, with the lowering of the flag to the rolling of the drum and with the entire audience standing.

"Alimonyv at the Hin

So many divorce scandals are hushed by the power of wealth and so many homes are broken up by the sneaking divorce lawyer that there is little won der "Alimony," the first National Ex- hibitOr's special picture running today and tomorrow at the Hip, found such fine favor with the patrons of that theater yesterday. It was written from the private notes of an old court re- porter and digs right down under the skin of society and shows d condition that few know anything about way out here in the west where people live cleaner and nearer to right. "Alimony'' tells how a vampire wanted a man who did not want her: how she married an- other and used his name for a cloak while she plotted all the time to attain her desire with the other. She framed marriage, a divorce, and with the aid of money, a crooked lawyer and a crooked detective, she almost succeed ed. Almost, until the mother instinct in her intended victim came to the res cue. 'Alimony' is another of the pie tured selected by the New York Board of Exhibitors passed upon by over sixty of the biggest men in films and then senl out with their stamp. It is augmented by a Pathe News today that contains another set of views of Hah- fax destroyed, and other fine news values.

FARMERS SHORT
 COURSE OPENS AT
 TUCSONNEXT WEEK

The farmers short course at the Ari- zona College of Agriculture begins Monday. January 14, and lasts all the week. The winter short course for farmers is now a regular feature hay ing been established several years ago. Each winter it becomes more popular and those who attend come back en- thusiastic and are the best boosters for the university in general and for the short course in particular that the big Arizona educational institution has.
 The short course is designed prima- rily for those farmers who cannot take complete agricultural college course and who wish to get some scientific as well as practical information along the lines in which they are particularly interested.
 Experts from all over the country, farmers of the state, and agricultural teachers and county agricultural agents take part on the program and give lectures and talks followed by dis cussions of all questions which concern the farmers and the farm home.
 This year the short course will nat urally center around the necessity of increasing the food supplies, and in all branches the talks will be towards the dccOmplSnment or as much as possible in the way of increased food crops and more livestock and livestock pro- ducts.
 Maricopa county has always been well represented at the short course but the benefits to be derived will warrant a much larger attendance from | this county than has ever attended be- fore. Special rates on the railroads will be given, and meals are usually served at the college at practically cost The programs will be out within a few days announcing the various topics tc be discussed. Those interested may ob- tain further information of the county agricultural agent, w. A. Barr or at the | Phoenix Chamber of Commerce.

MITCHELL AGENCY
 LEADS ID ALTAR

There must be something about the Mitchell automobile that leads to mat rimOny. If it isn't the automobile that drives people to the altar it may be the holding of an agency for the sale of these machines. At least recent events in the Phoenix Mitchell agency would lead to such a belief.
 On the last day of 1917 there were three members of the Mitchell agency in Phoenix and these three were ben edicts. Late on New Years eve with in the walls of the state prison at Flor ence. Paul F.. Crummey, of the Motchell agency. and Miss Irene Turner, were married. It wasn't because either of the contracting parties were sojourn- ing at the prison, but because the only larson in Florence at that time was at the prison. Following this wedding under unusual circumstances, there were but two bachelors left in the Mitchell agency.
 Then last evening, F. J. Shirley, an- other member of the local agency drove over to Mesa, accompanied by Miss Marguerite Plattner. A few min utes at the Methodist parsonage ir Mesa sufficed to tie the knot and wher the two emerged they were husband and wife. The ceremony completed Mir. and Mrs. Shirley were guests at z little dinner given in their behalf by City Commissioner George N. Mac. Bean. Included among the guests wer, Mir. and Mrs. Crummey and MT. Cray bill of Los Angeles.
 Now the question arises. how sooT will the third member of the Mitchell agency enter the ranks of the benedicts Indications are, it is said that this vii be an event of the near future.

AMERICAN NAVY
 FIGURES GIVEN

Interesting figures received by the State Council of Defense show that the American navy now has a personnel strength apprOXimating that of the much larger British navy at the out break of the war. It has 260,000 en- listed men, 15.000 officers, 33, 900 ma rines, with 1197 officers, and about 60,000 employees, in all strength of about 340,000. A year ago there were only 6S,000 sailors and 45O0 officers and less than 1000 marines, with 344 of ficers. Incidentally, a very large part of the Marine Corps already is in France doing duty with the army.
 A year ago there were 300 naval vessels of all types. Now more than a thousand are in commission. The navy used to cost $S,000000 a month: it now costs $60000 900 a month. Within eigh- teen months Congress has appropriated for naval needs the enormous amount of 1905, ,410,930.
 The navy has taken over the pr:nci- pal radio stations of the United States and insular possessions. It mas it's own projectile plant at Charleston, ] West Virginia. it's own powder mills at Indian Head, Maryland, and is op- erating at highest speed the great cannon factory at Washington, already one of the largest of it's kind in the world. It has it's own aircraft factory | in Philadelphia and has five private | plants building airplanes for it's use, as well. Every advantage offered by science is being studied and utilized where possible by the Naval Consult ing board, whereof the president is Thomas A. Edison.
