The pictures will lie open to the public the first time today. There is "an extensive array of most artistic and beautiful paintings of Ari zona and Indian scenes. Some deal with the desert, but on the whole the scenes are from the north where the moun tains reach to the skies, and where Miss Cory hits been spending the most of her time. The Indian scenes are most worthy They are natural, life like, and are well portrayed on the can vas. The exhibit will open to the public tliis morning, and will continue over two days. Admission wil lhe free, and the whole city is cordially invited to be. on hand to see the paintings. Moose Sanitarium The committee in charge of the work of securing the Moose Sanitarium for Thoenix and the Salt River Valley will meet at the Hoard of Trade this after noon at 4 o'clock. At that time they will diccuss the plans for their cam paign, and will outline the work which each member of the committee will be expected to do. The sanitarium has been proposed for Phoenix, Tucson, and oiher points in the state. It is the aim of this city to show the Moose headquarters just why I'hoenix is the best place for the proposed institution and if possible to brin.'j it here. Power Users Meet At four o'clock, at the same time as . the meeting of the .Moose committee is called there will be a meeting of the The commissions which have in their hands the arrangements for Arizona's representation in the San Francisco and San Diego Expositions in 101.", will mtet in Phoenix Monday, March 23. The call for the meeting was issued yesterday. The commissions were appointed by Governor Hunt two years ago, one ex position being given to each of the two bodies. They are made up of repre sentative business men from all sec- J tions of the state. ( At the meeting on the 23rd it is like- Iy that a definite plan for Arizona ex : hibits and participation in the exposi tions will be adopted, and that a defi jnite program will be laid out for the j work which is before the several mem bers of the two committees. At the last session of the state leg islature there were introduced several j bills all providing for Arizona exhibits in one or both of the fairs. The mem ! hers of the state legislature however ! could not come to a conclusion on the I matter, since they were divided, some j wishing to appropriate for both and others decidedly against the San Diego appropriation. The bills were there fore tabled at that time, and no final 'action was taken on either. I It is likely that the question of which of the two shall be patronized by this state and of the amount that shall be givtn each fair or eiher. will be placed before the people of the state at the next regular election.

Bennett, received a telegram yes terday from Mescal informing him that there was a crazy man at that place. He and Dr. Powell went there in their autos and took into custody the alleged crazy man, who had been at that place for the last two or three days. When found he was carrying two grips which the officer claims were the heaviest he ever got hold of, his name or where he came from could not be learned. Nothing in his actions here last night indicated insanity. He talked intelli gently and did not appear to be any "buggier" than the "kronick knockers" that hang around this town. Jas. E. Robinsqn. president of the California Mission, Elder Jas. V. Mc Murrin, one of the general authorities from Salt Lake, President J. R. Shep herd of the Rear Lake Stake of Idaho, together with Elder Davis of Clifton. Idaho, visited us here at Robinson Branch and St. Davids, both places be ing Mormon settlements near Benson in conference capacity. They found the Robinson branch in excellent condition, both temporally and spiritually. This colony was es tablished by J. M. Cosby about four years ago and has grown with such tremendous rapidity that tile members of the church largely exceed those of St. Davids' which has been settled over thirty years. In fact both places are enjoying greater prosperity than ever before. The visit of these brethren has greatly encouraged us and we feel like working with renewed zeal. Many of the Saints from Mexico have cast their lots with us and are pleased with their homes so much so that many of them have declared they have no desire to return to Mexico and yet there are others who long to return to the land of Manana. The people here are interested in the reports from the industrial school at Port Grant, more especially so because it was located here and the people here know fiom past experience that the girls ought to be separated from the boys and returned to this place where the state has good buildings for this purpose. It is certain that neither the boys nor girls were sent to the indus trial school for their past good conduct and from the fact that they are either criminals or degenerates they should not be kept at the same place. The Board of Control could not devise n better plan than to return them to this place and put them in charge of offi cers and matrons whose characters are above reproach. o EDITOR DRYER WILL RE GUEST OF TRADE BOARD I j First Avenue and Adams jj i Thomas Dryer, editor of the Assoc- lated Advertiser will be a guest of the i Board of Trade of Phoenix next week.

THURSDAY MAR. 19 ALL-STAR VAUDEVILLE , FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ASSOCIATED CHARITIES The Greatest Collection of Artists in the History of Phoenix PROBATE ORDER UNASSAILABLE Colaterally, Hays Supreme Court, and is .Binding Until Annulled Hy Com petent Authority Void able, But Not Void The Supreme Court yesterMay hand ed down quite an important decision in the case of the Lincoln Trust Company of New YorkMts executor and anoilliary administrator of the estate of the late Kate Taylor Grannis against Caddis Perry and Company. A report of the case says: "This was an appeal from a judg ment of Judge Krook of the Superior Court of Mohave County sustaining a general demurrer to the complaint of the appellant, The Lincoln Trust Com pany. "The Lincoln Tr.ist Co., n foreign corporation, was appointed trustee of the estate of Kate Taylor Giannis by the will and the Superior Court of Mo have County admitted the will to pro bate and appointed the Trust Company ancillary administrator for the State of Arizona. Thereafter the Trust Com pany, as administrator and as trustee under the will brought suit against Caddis & Perry Company to recover possession of some land in Kingman, Arizona, together with damages for its use and occupation. "The defendant, Caddis & Perry Company, demurred to the complaint on the ground that it did not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of ac tion in that the Trust Company was a foreign corporation organized under the laws of New York; that it had not been licensed to do business in Arizona and the complaint did not allege a compliance with the laws of this state in that respect. In the opinion of the Supreme Court written by Chief Justice Franklin it is held that the order if the Superior Court appointing the appellant Trust Company, ancillary administrator can not beattacked collaterally and that the act appointing the Trust Company administrator is binding until annulled by competent authority, because ""the court had jurisdiction and cognizance of the subject matter and the estate of deceased, and even though exercising it improperly its judgment would be at most only voidable and not void. The Superior Court, therefore, erred in sustaining the general demurrer nnd the judgment is reversed and the case remanded with instructions to overrule the general demurrer to the complaint and further proceed in accordance with law." W. M. Seabury and Ross H. Blakely j appeared for the appellant while Elias S. Slark and J. Ralph Tascher were for the appellee. LITERAL In one of the Brooklyn courts a re cent case required the testimony of a young German immigrant. "Now, Rritzmann," said the lawyer for the plaintiff, "what do you do?" "Ah vos pretty veil" replied the uintess, "I am not inquiring as to your health. I want to know what you do." "York!" "Where do you work?" continued the counsel. "In a vactory." "What kind of a factory?" "It vos brttty big vactory." "Your honor." said the lawyer, turn ing to the judge, "if this goes on we'll need an interpreter." Then he turned to the witness again. "Now. Britzmann, what do you make in the factory?" he asked. 'You vant to know vot I make in der vactory?" "Exactly! Tell ns what you make." "Eight dollars a week." Then the interpreter got a chance to earn his daily bread Brooklyn Times. TICKETS $1.00 SEAT SALE EMPRESS THEATRE, THURSDAY, 10 A. M.

OPEN EVENINGS THE ARIZONA CURIO JEWELRY CO. ' 45 N. Central Ave. QUICK CAPTURE AT GLOBE OE WANTED MAN Undersheriff Billy Woolf Uses Great Head work In Locating Alleged Forger Thirty minutes after he had been informed that L. A. Miller of Los Angeles was wanted in Phoenix for passing two bad checks. Under Sheriff Billy Woolf had the man where he could be secured, in the city jail at Globe. He called that, city at once, and in a short time was notified that the man wanted had been taken and was waiting for officers to come after him. Miller came to Phoenix last Fri day and put up at the Ford hotel. He came here from Los Angeles ill an Oakland car, A. L. Kellog at the wheel. Kellog had been employed to drive the car here. Saturday Miller went to the Williams Rubber Company on Central Avenue where he gave a check in exchange for a new tire for his machine. Sunday morning he gave the Ford a check for twenty unbars taking fourteen in change, and left for Globe with a new driver, leaving Kellog behind on the pre tense that he was just off for a short trip in the valley. j Monday morning the checks came I back to their former receivers all marked "no funds." and the sheriffs office was at once notified. Woolf ; then located his man in Globe and ordered him held. He then heated the wires to Los Angeles, finding that the man had procured the ma chine he was driving with the same brand of money he had used here. Miller will be here awaiting the arrival of the officers from Los An geles county who will take him back to the coast where he will be ar raigned on a more serious charge than that which hangs over him here. o LIONS, B.

RECENT COURT ORDER a For First Time In Seventeen Years Real Property Case Turned Down In Justice Court The directors of the Texas league have issued a life pass to Governor Colquitt. It is .to be of solid gold and of a size suitable to be worn as a watch charm. An opinion of the superior court recently laid down providing that no civil cases wherein the title to real property is involved shall be heard in a justice court, had effect this morning when for the first time in seventeen years Justice Johnstone was compelled to transfer a case. It happened in the case of J. V. Stacy vs. A. J. Sears, a civil suit ill which the question as to who own ed certain real property came up. Accordingly the case was immediate ly transferred to the superior court, where it will be tried. The peculiarity of the c.ise lies in the fact that though Judge John stone has been in the justice court here constastly for the past seven teen years, this is the first time this provision of the state law has come to his attention. Though he has tried civil cases by the hundred each year never before has the matter or real property title come into one ut these cases.
