CONCERT FOR DAY NURSERY
 PROVES REAL TREAT

The Junior guild of the Episcopal church gave a rare treat to music lovers of Phoenix Saturday evening in presenting Robert Saunders. violin vir- tuoso, and Orley Hes. concert pianist. in one of the greatest programs ever heard in Phoenix.
 A New York paper recently said: Saunders produces great sweeps of tone, rising and falling in thirds. sixths, octayes and chord passages, sounding like the wind in the pines. like the wailing or exulting of human voices; impetuous pizzicato like rain drops or hail. Harmonics, pure, clear, like the whisperings in the distance" It also has been said by critics that Saunders produces the greatest tone of any vio- linist since Joachim and Sarasate.
 The program opened with a modern number by VoIpe which covered the entire fingerboard in dashing double stops, running passages in thirds and sixths, and sweeping chord passages intermingled with beautiful themes. The work by Vieuxtemps, with all it's
 great passion and portrayal of the most emotional human feelings. was
 wonderfully played from the first heavy chords. through the appealing
 lamenting middle movement, to the dashing chords, pizzicatos and har- monies of the climax.
 Then came probaply the most en- ioyable number of the violin offering. the A Minor Concerto of De Beriot. His concertos stand at the very pinnact of extreme difficulty, strict musical form and rare beauty. There are fourteen 1 in all which are seldom heard. Sau T. ders is absolute master of them IS well as all other great concertos, and will play others of them at future Phoe- nix concerts.
 The group of piano numbers pre- | sented by MT. Hes represented the works of three great masters of the piano. Rhapsody in G Minor by 1 Brahms, one of the greatest of the classical composers, Prom Uncle Re- mus" a characteristic composition by i Mcdowell, and the Lento of Cyril Scott
 The four Kreisler numbers followed l representing the most difficult and ! artistic achievements of that great
 master. The CorellI- TartlIl Theme

 Editorial


 Our only objection to the bill brought in by Hon. Mir. Meade. in the council, to abolish the office of court stenog- rapher in the third district is that it does not go far enough. All these court stenographers ought to be abol- ished. There is no reason why our tax-ridden territory should be com pelled to support such useless off cials.
 The act calling the official stenog- raphers into existence was one of the corrupt measures of the corrupt leg islature of 1879. It gives each stem ographer $1 900 a year for an amount of work that only requires him, at most, a week a year. In addition to this. it taxes every 1itigant in civil suits 25 cents for every 100 words of court proceedings-an outrageous i'm position. The judge and counsel could and in most courts do, take the notes of trials much more correctly and succinctly.

Defendants crm- inal too. would find another relation between the two words other than that of similarity sound
 We have already called attention to the objec- tions which have been raised, to the admission of women to jury services. the most important being the imperative need of some of them, especially the : mothers of small children at home We have Eested that way might found for automatically excusing service women who attend without serious interference with their domestic affairs.

Petrograd Is Being Shelled

PART OF THE CITY
"The Whole of Russia Ap-
pears to Be in a Fer
ment," Says Dispatch

London. March l0.-Reports from
Russia regarding the revolution against
the soviet regime, continue to be oD-
scure and conflicting. A Reuters dis
patch from Helsngfors, filed yester-
day. states the Russian agency there
has issued statement that the fate
of Petrograd is still in the balance and
DENYING that revolutionary troops are
occupying three quarters of the city
The dispatch says the insurgents have
taken positions in a part OF the city
which is under fire from kronstadt,
and that it is also being shelled by
bolshevik batteries located at Boukovo.
Another Helsingfors dispatch states
that an artillery duel has been fought
between the fortress Of Krasnoye Cor
ka and several armored trains, and
that foreign couriers have been unable
10 leave Petrograd. The fortress OF
Petropavloysk has been badly damaged
it is said.
A message to the London Times
from Abo. Finland, states that the bat.
teries at Kronstadt, the Russian naval
base. where the revolution bagan,
opened fire against the seventh bolshe-
vik division. which was attacking rev
olutionary forces near Oranienbaum,
on the shore of the Gulf Of Finland

adds, appears to be in ferment."
