aria from the opera Lakme by Delibes. familiarly known as the Bell Song. This song was written for just such voice as Miss Gates possesses and gives wonderful opportunity for a dis play of technique. It is the ambition of every light soprano to master it's tech nical difficulties. Miss Gates sang it with a great deal of ease and abandon. Her trills and staccattos were almost flawless.
 The last number consisted of four songs in English which were under standingly rendered. Miss Gates re- sponded to encores after every number and these encoreS included the Cuckoo Song, Home Sweet Home, Last Rose of Summer and the Swiss Echo Song. It is safe to say that the Swiss Echo Song
 was more thoroughly enjoyed than any other number on the program. The eeh- oing phrases were very distinct and her tones were flawless.
 Phoenix is to be congratulated that so many local people took advantage of the opportunity to hear this splendid 1 singer. She fully met the nigh expecta- tions which her press notices led us to
 anticipate. Miss Gates will sing tonight at Mesa to a sold-out house and then will proceed to her home in Salt Lake.
 Ida K. Mervine, organist at Trinity l Pro- Cathedral and studio accompanist 1 for William Conrad Mills, played the
 accompaniments in a very artistic
 manner and her work was appreciated not only by Miss Gates, but by the audience

 ID PACKED HOUSE OF
 ENHANCED PEOPLE


 Lucy Gates, a real American singer with a truly wonderful voice, sang last night to a Phoenix audience that packed the Elks theater and enjoyed to the full an evening such as they seldom are permitted to do. She won the aud fence with her first number and then it was just 8 succession of treats, each one better than the other. if possible. The singer was wonderfully kind and responded to encores after each num- Der on the program thus making it all most double its original length.
 Her first song was an Italian one Una voce poca fa," from the Barber of Seville. It was from the old Italian school and gave the artist an oppor- tunity to display her woncerful range and vocal technique.
 The second number was 8 group of American songs by Edward Mcdowell who is recognized as one of America s greatest composers. This group was familiar to many in the audience be- cause they have been sung here by To- cal singers and are programmed nearly every season. Miss Gates interpreted these songs in beautiful manner The next number was group of four French songs which Miss Gates was kind enough to explain to those in the audience who did not understand | French.

 "The last month has been devoted to valley. The formation of the Gila Valley Water Users Association means the establishment of the main trunk of the structure of organization in behalf of the Newlands- Olmsted plan. That be- ing completed, the San Francisco drainage system will be organized. with Clifton as a center; the San Si- mon with San Simon and Bowie as centers; the San Pedro Valley with Benson as a center.

 'The greatest danger to the Imperial Valley today of a repetition of the dan gerous break of some years ago, comes from the Gila river arising from the chance that big flood from the Gila may pile in on top of a flood in the Colorado river and overtop the protec- tion levees of the Imperial valley.

Riverside Park

Riverside Park has added several new features among the concessions to be found on the ground. The man agement is striving to live up to it's an nounced policy of making Riverside a bigger, better, and greater park than ever before. and the results would cer- tainly seem to point to the success Of this effort.
 Anothersmuch appreciated feature is the swimming lessons which may be had from Prof. Cahill who is in con- stant attendance at the park, and who has arranged many classes for the mornings. There is no excuse for any one not knowing how to swim, for the big plunge offers every opportunity not only for beginners, but for the most experienced swimmer. The water is heated, so that the chill has been re- moved, which adds great deal to the general enjoyment of a frolic in the pool
 l The dance will be conducted tonight as usual. Sonny Clay and his partner continue to make the music that has proven such an enjoyable feature at Riverside, and the pavilion is nightly ! crowded.
 The restaurant is gaining in popular | ity by leaps and bounds. Meals can be had there all during the afternoon and evening. thus eliminating the necessity for a return to the city at meal times

'RED. .HAND'' LETTER SENDS THREATS TO
 PHOENIX CITIZENS

Phoenix thus far has not been both cred with the black hand or the Mafia. But some of her citizens were worried yesterday by the receipt of a crude letter, evidently intended as threat, signed "Black Raider" and "Beware," followed by red ink imprint of the heel of hand with all the character istic lines.
 The epiStle was discovered lying near the steps of the residence occupied by Mrs. Mary Millsap and her daughter and son-i in-law, Mir. and Mrs. H. C. Kennedy, at 621 South Central avenue. It was left there after Kennedy, who is the manager of the Apache garage, had gone to work and evidently was thrown by some one passing along the street, and fell short of its destination. the porch.
 The missive was crudely printed on piece of white bond paper of the cheaper bond variety, about the size of apostal card, and contained the follow ing inscription, all printed out except the word 'behold":
 Second time
 Remember behold
 You and your house
 You aspecaly
 Black Raider
 The impression. evidently made by mixing the right side of the right hand on red ink pad, ran from opposite the word "beware" up across the right sid, of the sheet.
 My motherin- law, Mrs. Millsap, an( my wife were very much frightened, said Mir. Kennedy last night. "W, cannot imagine why we should b, threatened. We have never received anything of the sort before" ! The note was turned over to Office 1 Papo, who responded to the call for tn i police sent in when the threatenin, missive was discovered. The police ar at loss to understand whether tn l thing is intended for real threat or i merely a crude joke.
