Galpin fell exhausted to the ground and died before those who saw him fall could reach his side. Coroner C. V. Johnstone was summoned, but decided that an Inquest was unnec essary.

THE EGALE THEATRE Last Chance to See As nfhe 4 Powerful Peels. Gall and "Wormwood. The Liquor Curse of France. combination chemical engine and hose wagon auto trucks recently purchased to augment the- equipment of the Los Angeles fire department. A car con taining the two big trucks arrived in Phoenix Saturday. One of these trucks was immediately unloaded and Saturday evening and yesterday aft ernoon was on exhibition at the city hall, or was being given demonstra tion runs by Manager Hirsch for the benefit of the commissioners, the fire men and those citizens interested in the project to equip the city with up-to-date apparatus. To the average citizen the sight of one of these massive fire wagons speeding through the downtown streets, while the silver bell clanged out a warning to pedestrians or driv ers of vehicles, was a novel experi ence. Not many had previously seen apparatus of this high grade. It seemed to them that in the big truck, handled so deftly by Hirsch, (he last word had been said in that class of equipment. And underneath the dazzling white and gold of the big machine it was easy to see there was power, stability and utility. So Impressed were some, there was a veiled threat to mob Hirsch if he attempted to take the trucks away from Phoenix, despite the fact that they are already the property of the cit yof Los Angeles. The machine shown here was brought here entirely at the expense of the Gorham company. This was easily arranged, as the trucks were on their way to Los Angeles over the' Southern Pacific, and it required only to route them to Phoenix from Mari copa. Half an hour after the car had been spotted in the Arizona East ern yards, the truck rolled down the ways from the car and started up town under its own power. The car is not only of the same type as twenty or more now in use in Los Angeles, but it is also iderifi cal with two recently purchased for the Douglas fire department. It is what is known as a chemical engine and hose wagon and Is manufactured In,- the Seagrave company at Colum bus, Ohio. It is equipped with a G0 gallon chemical tank, besides two small Babcoeks. There are facilities for speedy replenishing of the chem ical. There are also' 250 feet of chemical hose. The hose carrying capacity is at least 1,300 feet, enough to furnish not less than five streams at any fire that might occur in the city. There 1 are also three ladders, one a 20-foot extension, another a thirty-foot ex tension and a straight twelve-foot roof scaling ladders. The motor is 54-horsepower and equipped with a self-starting appa- ! ratus. The lights are electric oper ated from the driver's seat, and in clude not only the brilliant headlights, but a powerful searchlight for use at night fires. Th.ese lights receive their power from storage batteries, which are replenished by a generating sys tem, a part of the equipment, thereby insuring a never-failing supply of "juice." There Is a full complement of nec essary tools, besides axes, pinch bars and nozzles. Warnings are sounded either with a powerful Klaxon horn or a large bell hung within easy reach of the driver of the machine. The commissioners, while' expressing no decided opinion because of the fact that they will probably be called upon to consider several makes of apparatus before purchases are made, seemed visibly impressed -with the Seagrave truck. With the excep tional engine, also the product of the Seagrave plant, all the speed that could possibly be expected is avail able. Fifty miles an hour. If nec essary, would be an easy matter over rough streets, and an even greater speed over the smooth pavements of the downtown districts. o .

The situation therefore clear up in Cochise county a great deal and when this information reaches Sheriff Harry Wheeler of that county, it will allay his fears, as expressed in a message t: Governor Hunt yesterday. The sheriff made a trip of inspection all over the county and summed up the situation that Douglas and Bisbee needed no more attention but that Oleason Junction, Pirtleville, Courtland, Pearce, which have large Mexican pop ulations are a source of apprehensiorf owing to the coming of the Cino de Mayo celebrations. The sheriff asked go to work. Formerly art with him had been a pastime.

Monday night will see the addition of Hay Duncan and Mazie Hoffman to the company, and by Thursday Bowker expects to ,see three more people to strengthen his organization. The present bill, "The Wrong Mr. Wright," is n clever little comedy and has pleased large audiences.

The ways and means committee is ready to take- up a. war revenue bill if necessary, and the military and naval committee is primed for action. The house has a naval bill up for the week's work and it may be passed on Saturday. It carries a' to tal of $142,000,000, and provides for the construction of two battleships.

DRAY IS NAMED AS INSPECTOR Popular Young Architect and Contractor Appoint1 ed by the City Manager to Succeed Howard B. Claflin Announcement will be made today by Manager W. A. Farish of the ap pointment of Roy A. Gray" to succeed Howard B. Claflin as city building inspector. This will come as a sur prise, for it had been expected that the application of Claflin for contin uance in the office would be consid ered. The new building inspector is one of the( best known of the younger ar chitects and contractors. He was as sociated with George H. Gallagher, who' died about one year ago, the firm name being Gallagher & Gray. He has given every evidence of par ticular ability in the construction line as well as in architecture. Under the regime of Claflin, the of fice of building inspector has meant something more than the collection of a few fees. He has watched care fully to see that building ordinances were carried out to the letter and has recommended several important ordi nances which are now in effect and which have to do with the general public safety. He has been fearless in condemning unsafe property and in rejecting applications for permits to construct buildings that seemed not to comply with building regula tions. He will probably re-engage in the business of architect, which profes sion he followed before being ap pointed to the city position. His most recent work for the city was the drafting of the plans for the new lire stations as well as for he re modeling of the central station. The outlying stations are now under course of construction after his plans. More Bargains for Boston ONLY THE REGALE THEATRE 210-212 V. Washington St. gave the people there a greater feeling of rest and confidence than they have had for some time. It solves the prob lem that confronted both the detach ments of colored troops stationed at Nogales and Yuma of not having suf ficient men to guard the property in their charge. Unless something un toward happens the two companies of militia now in the field in the neigh borhood of Yuma will be recalled. GUESTS OF HOLZWARTH It was some trip overland that H. D. Camp and his family made from EI Paso to this city in their Studebaker car. They arrived here a day or two ago and are now the guests of L. J. Holzwarth, at the Holzwarth home on North Central avenue. Camp formerly lived in Phoe nix but for the past several years has been engaged in business in ElPaso. He expressed himself as greatly sur prised with the growth and develop ment of Phoenix:. na at Monterey reported to Secretary Bryan he had been humiliated, placed in jail by Mexican federal officials on April 22 and kept behind the bars until released two days later by the constitutionalists when thev captured the city. He said the federal officer, with a street mob. ordered the Amer ican flag over the consulate to be lowered immediately or he would shoot it down. Other federals tore down all the American flags and stood on them. Consul Hanna's telegram follows: "On the twenty-first of April, a federal military officer by the name of Alvarez del Castillo, evidently in structed by the federal military com mander to tear down all American flags, arrived at this consulate gener al with a street mob which he had gathered, about 4 o'clock in the after noon. He pounded on the door and demanded that the American flag over this consulate be immediately lw eored rohe would shoot it down. The other federals proceeded to tear down all American flags, stamping on them and making speeches throughout the city of Monterey, burning some flags, tearing them up and leaving them piled in the middle of the . streets. "Tt was the most insulting act that I (lr any of the people of Monterey ever witnessed. They placed a police guard in front of this consulate and all inmates in this building were considered as prisoners. "Next morning a police lieutenant arrived with a force of men and ad vised me that he had been instructed to search the building. When the in- suiting search was completed,, your consul-general was taken prisoner and thrown in the streets with a mob and carried, first to the penitentiary and afterward, to the state govern ment palace, which building has been for some time the military headquar ters and is fortified. "I was taken before the military court and notified that I was charged with being in sympathy with the con stitutionalist chiefs and friendly with General Pablo Gonzales and General Ontonio Villareal. "I was kept a prisoner and incom municado until the arrival of the con stitutionalist forces." Judge Duncan Next With the coming of Bay Duncan and Mazie to the Savoy, opening this evening, there will be a new bill called "Duncan, the Judge," with Duncan in the judge5s part, hence the head of the story. The play is a good, clean one with plenty of snap and plenty of songs for the great big chorus. With every performance the chorus comes in for more apprecia tion from the audiences that nightly attend the Savoy. Manager Bowker of the company and Manager Brought of the theater are hard at work in creasing the efficiency of the attrac- the Iron Play House. Mr. and Mrs. Kornell of El Paso are ex petted to arrive in the city in a few days and they will be added to the company. Kornell is a producer of great ability and will be of great assistance. Opening tonight there will also be a feature picture show ing Mexican war operations as they actually ceur. The pictures were taken during the battles around Oji nago, when Salvador Mercador and 5,000 federals took refuge in the United States against the onrusii of Villa's rebels. A Real Snake Dancer Madame La Albertina, a sister of the famous seeress Anna Eva Fay can be seen at the Coliseum this evening for the last time in Phoenix in her won- which is realistic in the extreme is conducted with eight foot sattle snakes gliding down the stage striking at the dancer. That they are actuMlv the poisonous snakes that is claimed for them is proven by the fact that they ire never dopey as are snakes whose fangs are extracted. They whir and rattle and strike at the dancer and sometimes bite her. She takes great chances when dancing with them on account of the poisonous nature of the rattler. Madame Albertina carries with her preventatives for the snake bites and has many a scar on her arms and limbs where the reptiles have struck her during her dances. They are real snakes and the act is a real act. If any proof is needed a visit to the Coliseum will furnish it. THREE STEEL MEN KILLED - PUEBLO. Colo., April 26. Three employes at the steel mill here were killed by strikers. OLD SONGS (By Philander Johnson.) hen old Seth Slocum lifts his voice and lets his songful sould re Joice, the noise is something on the plan of a rosined string drawn through a can. You long to hit him with a book or holler, rudely, "Get the. hook!" because it hurts your nerves -to hear- his tones so tremu lous and queer. Behind his back he puts his hands, half shuts his eyes and there he stands, permitting tunes all out of date forth from his l.M. S. PINAFORE" OPENS HERE TONIGHT The Avenue Theater- "What Happened to Mary" is the added attraction to the regular pro gram for today and tomorrow at tho Avenue. In "The Drudge", Dorothy Kelly has added yet another to the long lists of triumphs, already to the credit of the Vitagraph company. This offering is a classic of the silent dramas, the story is one of everyday life, the common place existence of many farmer's wives. The pretty school teacher mar ries the wealthy farmer, while piqued at her lover. She is made to pay the penalty by the simple process of forc ing her into the rut of household drudgery. Just when life is nearly un bearable, she plans to elope with the lover of her girlhood; this step becomes unnecessary, when the husband is killed in an accident. "Andy the Actor" is another of the exploits of Andy Clark, the schoolboy star of the Edison company, and pre vides an excellent comedy. "When the Cartridges Failed" is a snappy drama, wherein Ben Wilson and Gertrude McCoy are given the leading roles. The bill, as a whole, is most pleasing. "II. M. S. Pinafore" the most popu lar of the old favorites of the light operas will be the vehicle at the Era: press for this week of the Boston Ideal company, with which the company will make many more friends than they al- , ready have. The city of Phoenix is becoming to appreciate the work of this sterling organization otherwise the crowds that nightly attend the per formances would not be increasing as they are. From the way the revival of Pinafore in New York is taking that city by storm it can be safely pre dicted that Phoenix will share in the delights occasioned by the reappear ance of jolly old "Sir Joseph Porter K. C. B." For the past week the Boston Ideals, who have played the parts many times before, have been 'polishing up the handles just as bright as can be" in order that the most perfect perform ance possible will be given. The chorus and solos in the piece taken with the brilliant dialogue form one of the bright pages in the history of the opera in English. Pinafore is too well known to need formal introduction to Phoenix theater goers. The piece has been seen before hut it is one of those attractions which are like great pictures, they improve with aequintance. Under the able di rection of Director Hazelrigg the work has progressed exceptionally well, and it is safe to say that a great deal of pleasure will be derived by local thea ter fans with the rendition of the opera. The caste has been selected with great care. The following tells the story: Sir John Porthr K. C. B ' A. C. Burgess Capt. Corcoran, commanding H. M. S. Pinafore F. O.

Passing a public school on returning from an auto trip along Riverside Drive, she notices sev eral crippled children and determines to purchase a doll for each of them. Working over them she falls asleep and nant night. dreams she is a big -doll, which i.i fact she is, a greait big boHii'ifuI doll, the favorite of mUlions of movie pttrons. The two reel Kay-Bee featu.-a, "The Raiders" is enthusiastically recom mended as a sure enough winner. The whole production is marked by strong types and convincing aciin?. In the action there is no padding or lack of interest or IogMc; the incidents are thrilling and futl of snap and the local color of the bacj grounds is very good. 'Tercey's First Holiday" is the Than- hauser offering aTid fenturing the clev er comedv work of W. S. Percy, the Australian actor, this picture has a broad humor of a kind that "goes over" easily, and there is a pertinancy in the incidents at nil times that keeps it alive nnd intewesting. Altogether it is an A No. 1 program.
