Grand Passion at Columbia

Grand PasSion,'' a spectacular film play of the great northwest featuring Dorothy Phillips, comes to the Colum- bia theater for Sunday and Monday only. This is regarded as one of the biggest dramatic photoplay produc- tionS of the entire season.
 It is the same type of play as "A Flame of the Yukon" and Hell Nor gans Girl but it is said to be even better than either of those two truly remarkable plays. Grand Passion" |" is a film of rapid action, lots of pep and Q mighty good theme.
 The anti-climax of the play is a spectacle barroOm fight, said to sur- pass anything of the kind ever before attempted before the camera A real, honest-to goodness frame building is totally destroyed in this fight as well as eall the contents which consist of bar-room fixtures, tables, chairs and similar furnishings. The fight between two different factions of the north west wages long and heatedly and is realistic in every sense.
 In addition to this feature, the Co. lumbia is offering the first of a new series of news weeklyy titled Timely Topics of the Day. These films are adapted from current events appear ing in the Literary Digest and are said to be of the same excellence as articles appearing in that famous pub- lication.

TWO EARLY ALASKA VOYACERS CEMENT
 FRIENDSHIP HERE

There was a further cementing of the tWenty-year- old friendship of Lin coln' Fowler and w. L. Leland of San Francisco yesterday. Their acquaint ance was begun on the steamer Port land en route to Nome in 1900. An other AriZonan on that voyage was James E. Bark. Though MT. Leland till retains interests in the northland, he had not been there for ten years and had not talked as much about it as he did all day yesterday when he was with MT. Fowler.
 MT. Leland had mining interests in Mexico and was on his way there. But when he reached Maricopa he decided to make a side trip to visit his old voyage companion. They spent the oay driving over the valley. MT. Le- land left for the south last night.
 Though most of the people who went on the northern crusade did not stay long, Mir. Leland, who was accompa- nied by his wife, almost became a per manent resident. He put in a hydrau- lie system at Nome with a canal sev- enty miles in length and installed gigantic dredger. He later sold the canal, but retains other interests ! there.
 | Talking last night of the business ] or marine insurance, he and Mir. Fow- Ter explained why it was not all fat. | Of the 4 vessels they saw in the har- l bor at Nome, though it may hardly be i called a harbor, only two are now afloat, and that was only IS years ago. Some of them are known to be at the bot om of the sea; others were thrown on rocky coasts, and two of them, the Pleiades and the Panama, sailed out nto the unknown and never came back nor were they ever afterward heard of.
 So perilous was this northern traffic that for long time insurance was not good above 54." It is now, however, carried all the way under certain re- strictions regarding the inside passage For instance, if a vessel enters Nunivak Pass before June ' the insurance is for feited.
 MT. Leland has had a varied iron tier experience. When a young man and he does not now appear to be above middle age, he was working in mines Tn Final county, and when Tombstone was its wooliest, he was there. Later he was chief engineer in trans Pacific
 traffic.

Phoenix theatergoers, long starved for amusement, have had two treats in almost as many days, Have d Heart" at the Columbia last evening maintaing the standard set earlier in the week by The Country Cousin which was shown at the same play house. Although a different type of attraction, the musical comedy was quite as much a gem of it's kind as was the play in which Alexandra Car lisle and Alfred Lunt appeared here Have a Heart" is a typical Henry Savage offering with it's tuneful melody. clever lines and pretty girls. The book and lyrics by Guy Bolton and r. G. Wodehouse, and music by Je- rome Kern promised much and it was a promise made good.
 There is just enough plot to furn,sn amusing situations and the actors are blessed not only with voices, but acting ability to bring out all the genuine comedy that has been incorporated into the two delightful acts that kept the

 It is said that since the government has decided to establish the hospital at Whipple Barracks, it has expended more than $1,000000 there in the con- structiOn of buildings of the most per- manent character.
 On receipt of the telegram, the presi- dent laid it before the senate and i'm . mediately a memorial urging the re- scinding of the order of abandonment was drawn and directed to the mem bers of the Arizona delegation in con- gress, Vice President Marshall, Secre- tary of War Baker and Surgeon Gen cral Blue, pointing out the effect of it upon convalescent soldiers and sailors and the prosperity of the city of Pres colt.

 Didn't Want to Interfere
 He said that he was not wanting in local patriotism, but he had seen SC much of interference with the war de- partment by civilians that he was not disposed to become a party to it. He said that in the preparation for the late war and for caring for the selected men. General Leonard Wood had made a selection of sites for canton ments and undoubtedly the selections made out of experience, were wise Yet at the request of selfish civilians iul over the country the general had been overruled, with the result that many of the cantonments Were locat- ed in unsuitable places, with disas- trous results to the soldiers who were sent to them.

 Grand Lodge Session

the blessing of God, the sweetest most blessed emotions that can gladden. the hearts and illuminate the minds of men while living, or come to calm the waters of life's last river in death are those that proceed from the realization that we have lived to help our fellows, and fro mthe blessings of those whom we have ourselves sought to bless.
 This feeling of appreciation is emphasized in the opportunity that has been given me to say a word to you about the work of the Salvation army, and especially about that little company of brave men and women who day and by night, almost continually under fire, have rendered their unbroken service of sacrificial love behind the bleeding lines of the western front; yet in so doing I confess to reluctance which is almost an embarrassment.
 The war is over. The worlds greatest tragedy is arrested. The awful pull at mems heartstrings is relaxed. The inhuman monster that leapt out of the darkness and laid blood hands upon every home of a peace-blest earth has been overthrown. Autocracy and diabo- lical tyranny the long rows of white crosses that stretch from the English channel to the Adria tic, and we look once more into each others faces with glad eyes
 eyes aglisten with peace and victory.
 I recognize that still there are clouds upon the horizon, but I am confident that our hdnored and beloved president, and the free people of that inviolate banner which has borne it's glittering stars triumphant above the storm, making forever impregnable the ramparts around American rights, will never rest until it's sacred standards of liberty and happiness and hope be transmitted to those beloved countries committed to the issues of this day; until freedom and peace shall within their gold en arms encircle the whole earth, and not one fragment of a nation be left to chafe and bruise beneath the yoke of autocratic tyranny, so that, as God intended, there shall be no more the glory horrors and mutilations of war, but "Peace on earth" as your order so greatly advocates, Good will to men," until the moon shall be turned into blood, the stars into ashes ,and this old world shall be no more.

dea rmothers and brave fathers have paid. The price they that sleep in the lands they have made free have paid; when l think up on all this, it is with no little re. luctance that I speak of the small part taken by the Salvation army in the worlds titantic sacrifice for liberty, which part, we shall ever regard as our life's crowning hon. Tor.
 Then, too Jour service has brought it's own reward, that re- ward which we always regard as the crowning of our service-and which your order helped to secure for us-the opportunity to render it. This is all we ever want. This is our remuneration-opportunlty to give help where help is most needed. And then the expression of gratitude fro mthe highest rank officers, from the rank and file and from fathers and mothers all
