IRISH PLAY OF LOVE
 AND TROUBLE 4 HIT

Wilma Steck disappeared for about four hours yesterday. She entered the E.lks theater about o'clock yesterday afternoon and entered her dressing room. She was not seen again until after the matinee performance of Molly Bawn, presented by the Del Lawrence stock company. In the title role of the play Miss Steck completely lost her own identity and romped across the boards of the theater, a care free, quick kwitted, adorable col leen. Her infectious good humor quickly brought the audience into the spirit of the romantic story of Irish love and Irish trouble.
 One of the most enjoyable features of the performance was the manner in which Molly told her lover. Richard Marvin, the folk lore tale of Danny and the elfins. The recital brought a hearty ovation from the audience.
 Although the title role predomina ed the piece, Howard Nugent found am pie opportunity to distinguish himself in the part of Michael Bawn. wealthy manufacturer whose heart was as big as his fortune. Del Lawrence as Rich ard Marvin made ideal lover. Others in the cast fitted well. into their respective parts.

The mayor is on vacation trip, pure and simple, he let |. he known and his daughter, q charming little Miss was brought in the hope that the sunshine here would help her to recover from an illness which has necessitateG placing her in the care of a physician.
 Mayor Davis. Saturday afternoon. spoke of the hustle and the prosperity of Phoenix, of the reerudescence of building and agricultural activity in Fl Paso and the Fl Paso valley, and asked many questions concerning the Salt River valley and Phoenix, which he has not visited in some time.
 II like Phoenix he said. People see m to be in hurry They seem to be gong somewhere, and they seem to have money.
 Cotton naturally became the subject of conversation, and Mayor Davis who is an east Texas man, recalled the days when it sold for four cents. with one in particular very anxious to buy. Ninety five cents pound!" he eX- claimed. "No wonder your land here rents for much as our land sells for in the Fl Paso valley. A man could pay Oul III Ouc year. COuiuiI lt.
 The Fl Paso valley has been ex- perimenting in the growth of a cotton having a one and one-eighth inch staple, according to MT. Davis. Ap proximately 1000 acres were planted there this year. and 22. GOO acres are contemplated for planting in the. spring for the 1920 crop.
 Texas con gressmen have been work ing to obtain permission from the iTa- migration authorities at Washington to introduce enough labor to meet the Mir Davis said when told of the diff culty cotton growers in this valley ex- pcrienced last summer.
 Fl Paso expects the 1920 census to show that she has 9O.000 people, cordins to Mayor Davis. Of this num- Ter he said, approximately 50 per cent Is Mexican.
 The county of Fl Paso is also busy he said. Recently it has voted $500, 900 for roads. to which sum the state has added s400,000, giving us s1.200.000 in all"
 Asked which type of road he pre- ferred. a loose base road or a concrete road, the mayor expressed unhesitat- ingly preference for concrete with T hituminous surface for county roads. and bitulithic for streets where a curbstone holds the material in place For city streets. I believe bitulithic Is the best pavement I ever saw he said. We have had it for i5 years in Fl Paso streets and haven't paid five cents for repairs

"The Gun Of Fury

Goldwyns s motion picture version of Rupert Hughes powerful American story The Cup of Fury is the attrac- ton at the Columbia theater again to- day and Tuesday. Interwoven with the dramatic action of the picture is a of the largest shipbuildins plants on the Pacific coast backgrounds many tense scenes.
 The Cup of Fury was directed by T. Hayes Hunter, under the personal supervision of the author, and the fin- ished production reflects the great care with which the picture was prepared for the screen. The story tells of a pampered daughter of the rich-a dancing, pleasure loving butterfly who found her wits pitted against the most gigantic problem facing fhis country today. On one side beclSoned the old life-the life of pleasure, ga,iety and ease; on the other side. a life of drab toll and sweat fraught wieh hard ships and privation. And in the bal ance hung the fate of starving human ity. The story is brimful Of swift ac- tion tense situations and character studies that are human. It has to do with familiar scenes and characters that are known and builds up to one of the most tremendous clirna xes--a fight on the scaffolding of a great ship in course Of construction.
 Helene Chadwick plays the heroine In The Cup of Fury and much of the enjoyment of the story is due to her in- depreciation of 8 complex character. Associated with her are such well lows, Prank Leigh, Clarissa Selwynne Kate Lester, Herbert Standing. Flor ence Deshon. Dwight Crittenden Syd- ney Ainsworth and others
