great works with broadness of vision
and thoroughness of appreciation far

styles, but seems to give sincere

own. She shows in the past year
since she appeared at the Arts Club
and under the auspices of the Wash

yet has warmth and color. Who

forth. 1t was In the Saint. .Saens
Concert in r Minor" that both ac
curacy of technique and cleverness in

powers Of this young violinist.
The allegro non troppo was started
off with strong, firm strokes: in the
second and third movements the
beautiful singing quality of the work
was charmingly emphasized with
light, sure flights of chromatics, ex-
cellently done; as she progressed the
young player developed the beauty
of the composition to climax, re-
markably well handled. The Chopin
"E Flat Nocturne" was the encore.
A gorgeous mass of flowers also were

PRINCESS VICTORY
IN ILLNESS SEEN
Victoria Expected to Recover
if Heart Attacks Become
No More Severe.
by the Associated Press.

LONDON, April 2-F'riends Of
Princess Victoria. who is suffering
from inhuerzal pneumonia, remain
hopeful of her recovery, although
recognizing that her illness il serious.
They say that unless the heart attacks
become more frequent and severe thar
those she previously has suffered there
seems no reason to doubt she will re-
cover. >
The general feeling OF the public is
that the Prince of Wales, who under
went a slight aural operation early in
the week, now lie suffering more from
the restraint the physicians are impos-
ing upon him than from his ear trou-
BILE. 1t ia expected that he soon will be
allowed TO go out of doors.
Norwegian Queen Arrives.
Queen Maud of Norway came to
London last night 10 visit her sister,
Princess Victoria. She was accom-
panied by her son. Crown Prince Olaf.
King George waited 40 minutes in the
hig crowd at the Kings Cross Station
for the train on which Queen Maud
was treVeline. which had been de.
laved on the trip from New Castle.
No preparations had been made at
the station for the coming of King
George and Queen Maud. and the po-
lice started to clear a space on the
crowded platform for the King. The
monarch, however. would not allow
the crowds to be interfered with.
The people recognized the King, and,
when they learned the purpose OF his
presence at the station. kept a sym
pathetic silence A majority of the
men stood with their hats In hand
until the monarch motioned for them
to replace them.
When finally the train came into
the station, King George greeted his
sister and told her of the condition
Of Princess Victoria. He then es-
corted her TO his motor car and
tipped his hat to the crowd in ac
acknowledgement OF it's salutations as
he. drove away.
Move Held Significant. 4
The fact that King George per-
sohally went to meet Queen Maud.
instead of sending representative
was interpreted by the public as in
dicatine Princess Victoria was in no
immediate danger.
The morning bulletin issued from
Marlborough House concerning the
condition of Princess Victoria said:
The pneumonia process is i'm
proving. The strain on the strength
Of her royal highness is great"

Girl Tied to Post Four
Years Freed by Police
and Ordered to Asylum

TUcson-Tied to a post for nearly
four years, in a tin shack five feet

old, was Saturday adjudged insane
by Judge Gerald Jones, and ordered
committed to the State Hospital
for the Insane at Phoenix.
The action came six hours after
Pat Higgins. probation officer, had
found the child lying in filth of
indescribable nature, in the shack
which adjoins the home of her aged
father, Jesus Jacova, one-half mile
northeast of the Venice store in the
Ft. Lowell district.
Immediately after making his
find Higgins got in touch with
Judge Jones, who went to the
scene and made a personal inspec-
ton. He then ordered an insanity
hearing be held at the home, the
girls condition being such that it
was thought inadvisable to bring
her to Tucson.

gingham dress, only emitted grunts
and babbling noises as the court
questioned the father and neighbor
woman regarding the facts of the
case.
According to the story told by the
father, the child was born an i'm
becile, and for nearly four years
he has been forced to tie the child
up to keep her from running away.
She is possessed with mania for
fire and on several occasions he
has caught her in the act of setting
fire to homes nearby, he told Off
Ger Higgins.
A nauseous stencil surrounded
the buildings resulting from the
filth in which the girl had been
living. Her face and hands were
smeared with dirt and filth. From
her eyes there was only a blank
look. Ter body had an appear

She is about four feet five inches

Sufficient Labor
In State to Meet
Demand is Report

There is sufficient labor available
in this state to meet immediate re-
quirements, except for a shortage
of several hundred cotton pickers
and a small number of experienc-
ed metal miners, according to the
department of commerce Labor Re
view.
Cotton gins in the Salt river val
ley, Yuma and Tucson districts are
commencing seasonal operations,
with agricultural activities con-
tinuing to afford all resident and
many migratory field workers with
employment. Increased metal min
ing operation are noted in the
Walker, Wickenburg, Octave and
Mohave county districts.
Considerable expansion and de-
velopment work in connection with
asbestos properties is under way in
Gila county. Building and general
construction continues to afford
steady employment for all available
construction workers, who are
barely ample. An extensive pro-
gram of Federal aid, state and
couny work is under way; labor in
connection reported sufficient in
the vicinities of the work to fill de-
mands. numbering particularly in
the McNary and Flagstaff districts
is increasing; logging operations to
be resumed Immediately in these
districts will offer employment to
about 800 men. A temporary sea-
sonal lull is noted in railroad oper-
ating departments with a resultant
slight decrease in employment.
In Phoenix district the report
states labor of all classes is quite
steadily employed with indications
that shortage of cotton pickers
will develop in this district during
September. All industrial plants
running steadily. Cotton gins are
resuming seasonal operations. AS
result of increased metal mining
activities, demands for experienced
metal miners slightly exceed the
supply. Building in the city and
general construction in vicinity
continues on a large scale and af-
fords steady employment to hun
dreds of skilled and unskilled CON
struction workers. An extensive
street paving program is under
| way. Railroad employment steady.
