and ease and a well experienced one. Moreover, she showed good dramatic style, has plenty of charm, and good speaking voice.
 Miss Greenwood was not the only feature of the performance, however. They were all good. Next to Miss Greenwood, the leading man, Clifford Alexander, probably made the best impression.
 Cheating Cheaters," the play that introduced the Edler company to Phoe- nix, is a clever and popular drama. It's four acts revolve about the opera tions of two gangs of society" crooks, the Brockton and the Palmer ''mobs,' D in underworld parlance, Nan (Miss Greenwood, is the leader of the Brockton gang.
 The Brockton gang and the Palmer gang-the latter is headed by Tom Palmer, the hero-are stalking each other, each thinking the other is a wealthy family with housefull of jewels. The two gangs rob each other, catch each other. There are all sorts of complications, and finally, on the eve of a consolidation, the two are nabbed by operatives of the mysterious Ferris. In the last act, of course, Fer ris proves to be none other than Nan Miss Greenwood), and everything ends happily as the crooks become de- tectives and Tom and Nan-well, you ! know the rest.

Wm. Russell in RIackface.


 Film fans, the country over, have seen and admired William Russell, stalwart hero of innumerable photo plays, in many stories; they have seen him in dress clothes, cowboy chaps, as a man of wealth and as a human derelict; but now Phoenix people are to have chance to see him at the Columbia theater today and tomorrow in blackface. During the action of Hobbs In Hurry" his newest photo play, he disguises himself as a Pull man porter, to be near the girl he loves.
 Russell takes full advantage of the fun possibilities that lie in such a makeup and laughs galore result as one watches him attempt to perform the routine duties of a Pullman porter

chairman, pointed out the fact that there was but s50,000 left in the road fund for the maintenance of road and repair of bridges, all of which had been damaged by heavy rains, it was suggested that the county borrow the money.
 To Offer Loan of Money.
 Mir. Bradshaw stated that he did not care to take any action until all the members of the board were present and that W. K. Bowen was still in the east on road bond business. It was then decided to put the matter over until next Monday when, it is understood, the money will be offered the county at a reasonable rate by MT. Gillespie. His representative, W. T. Smith, yes terday announced at the open meeting that MT. Gillespie would be willing to make the loan for six month, year, IS months or longer.
 Several months ago the board of supervisors and the state engineer agreed to contribute S3,300 each to- ward the piers that were believed necessary to strengthen the founda- ton for the proposed bridge, provided that the Gillespie interests submit the ucIl ollu DIlQ5t lO llIC 6ONCA AAAACAt- I hC plans and specifications were passed by Denver and by the chief engineer in Washington, but certain changes were made requiring additional piles for the piers, and an extension of the supporting columns.
 All Want The Bridge.
 These matters were reviewed by Mir. Smith who pointed out the additional expense. MT. Smith stated that he had gone before the governor and the state engineer. and they had accepted their half of the obligation, and that if the supervisors would carry on the other half and the work continued at once federal aid might be asked in the building of the bridge at a cost of s9S.- co, according to their engineers. 'If on the other hand, the bridge should be built at any other point over the Gila, it would cost not less than s225, 000," declared Smith.
 He emphasized the value of the road and bridge to the county and was fol- lowed by business men who were equally emphatic in what the valley was losing by not being in direct com munication with the Ajo district. ! State Engineer Thomas MaddacR advised the board to look at it as future proposition, and not tie up tho proposed project.
 Harry Welch, of the chamber o1 commerce said the sentiment in thi: county was strongly in favor of sup port from the supervisors. He did no believe he said, that the county coult afford to pass up the bridge site.
 Consider Offer Next Meeting. Isn't there some way the county can be helped out in this matter?" hC asked.
 It was then that MT. Smith suggest ed that Gillespie loan the money which proposition will be considered a the next board meeting. From the sen

James Conway made an excel lent crook posing as music teacher, and Paul Parr Smith was another good "crook" butler George Lewis as de- tective, and Maurice Chick as another one, were very clever in their DOT trayals.

U. 5. MEN TO ANSWER IN WAGNER SUIT OF
 BONDS AND C ASH

Judge Lyman yesterday oyerruled the demurrer, but gave the defendants 10 days in which to file an amended answer, to the complaint which was filed some time ago ny counsel for Nina Wagner who brought suit against United States Attorney Langston and Special Agent Frank Smith of the de- partment of justice, for the recovery of s1,00O in Liberty bonds and sS40 in cash.
 The young woman was the defend- ant in criminal action involving t he bonds and money which W. D. Thorn ton claimed she stole from him. The jury disagreed, some of the jurors holding that the money and it's equiv alent represented the community prop erty of the couple who came here to- gether from Oklahoma.
 After Mrs. Wagner was released she instituted the suit against the govern ment men who relieved her of the property when she was returned here from California, after Thornton was arrested on the charge of white slavery which grew out of his complain against the girl whom he alleged robbed him.
 Pugh and Brumback. who represent
 
 ceeding are her counsel in the present suit. They recently asked leave of the court to withdraw a paragraph of their complaint in which they assert that the government men converted the money to their own use. The court took no action on that motion. i The defendants in their demurrer | stated that the plaintiff does not al- 1 lege the ownership of the bonds or money nor her right to possession oi | the same. The suit will be tried before Judge Lyman during the late autumn | term of court. the exact date not yet l having been set.
 The defendant officials are holding receipts from the United States de pository for the money and bond: which, it is alleged, Mrs. Wagner con fessed to them in the presence of wit nesses was the property of Thornton.

Frank Mcintyre at the Hip

Frank Mcintyre brings to the Hip for a three days engagement beginning to- day, "The Travelling Salesman" one or the funniest comedies ever written. The whole plot is made possible through the fact that the Pullman porter forgot to call Bob Blake, the big jovial knight of the grip, and as a. result, he is car ried to Grand Cross, little town way beyond his station. Alighting, he be- comes interested in the little telegraph operator who greets him, and decides to spend some time at Grand Cross. He learns something of the life of the little girl, how she had befriended those whom the grasping capitalist of the town had evicted, and how, even now her folks were threatened with being turned out of the house, because of the fact that the capitalist wanted to sell it to a railroad company at a large profit. He becomes associated with the agents of the capitalist, and through a clever ruse in a poker game, not only succeeds in saving the home of the girl, but gets from her promise to become his wife. But he does not do this without many adventures which furnish the fun of the production.
 A selected comedy offering is aug menting the bill
