I AMUSEMENTS COLUMBIA OFFERS A LOT FOR A LITTLE With the matinee this afternoon the Columbia starts its new policy in the price arrangement of ten cents throughout the entire house for the same high class of pictures the Co lumbia has been offering. The Co lumbia theater with its comfortable cushioned seats makes an ideal home for pictures. One of ihe most im portant features of the house is its ideal cooling plant, supplying real comtV.it and relief from the blazing fin outside. During the last few clays two thermometers have been used in experimenting with the oool ir.tr system and it was found that from twenty to thirty degrees dif ference in temperature was the result. The temperature, of the street rang ing from 90 t, 02 and in the build ing from ti." to 70 during the entire matinee performance. The picture 'program for today will crisist of a two-reel "Hison" en titled, "Xabled," a story of police lite that will prove both thrilling and absorbing. Also there is "The Little C.irl of the Attic." a drama of the Civil AVar, that contains a plot of real heart interest. Two good comedies are included, one of them an ever welcome cartoon, in which "Prof. Xutt Takes a Trip to the .Moon." The latter is an excellent photoplay for matinees as it is par ticu'arly appealing to the little folks, witl' whom the Columbia, is fast be ecnvrt; a most popular amusement resort. CHARLIE'S A CHAMPION AT THE EMPRESS TODAY Charlie Chaplin will appear at the Empress tonight in what is said to be a funnier picture, 'than any that he has yet presented. "The Cham pion" is a two-reel picture in which Charlie takes the place of a prize fighter, but what is the use of try ing to explain it, you will all want to see him anyway. ' That Mother's Day picture, "The Silent Plea,!' is a. three part fea ture in which Kdith Storey takes iht lending part, being assisted by an all star cast. This was produced in conjunction with the Xew York state commission for the relief of widowed mothers, and is a dramatic appeal for the widowed mothers' al lowance. There are many very interesting scenes in the Hearst-Selig Weekly -if the warring nations, and also of Grace Darling's travels, "Mr. Carlson of Arizona,"' the first picture taken in Phoenix by Romaine Fielding, will Im? shown on next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. IKn't forget the dates. PICTURES OF "YOU" AT LION TONIGHT A novelty that is sure to draw a large crowd, will be put on at the Lion Theater tonight. For several days the Lion camera man has been taking pictures of prominent people on the streets, which have been made into slides and will be shown on the screen tonight only. Some were snapped while walking, others talking, etc., and they are sure to be amusing. The moving picture program at the Lion today is :i good one, the fea ture being a two reel llroneho called "The Wells of Paradise". This is a story of the Oil . fields, the scenic LOW S KIDDIES WILL TRAVEL FREE New Arrangement Allows Children to Travel to Riverside Park Without Charge on Saturdays be tween 10:30 and 3 " Here is good news for the kiddies, also for their mothers and dads. On Saturday Maxwell's Riverside bus line will carry children under twelve to Riverside park, between the hours of 10:30 in th? morning and : in the af ternoon, without charge. This arrange ment was made between the manage ment of Riverside and the transporta tion people last night and will surely help to make the school holiday pop ular at the big park. Xow that the weather is taking on a summery tone the swimming pool is getting more and more popular, there were more than a hundred swimmers last evening. In order to get ready for the season's schedule of aquatic sports there will be trials iu the pool on Saturday and Sunday afternoons this week. All the would be champions are invited to report and register and on1 their showing in the events on these two afternoons the handicaps for the first port of the summer will be arranged. In stead of race meets at odd times as was the case last summer, it is the intention to have a regular schedule of events, including high and fancy diving, sprints and distance races, under water swims and diving for dis tance. For these there will lie prizes for each meet and season prizes and it is planned to bring the swimmers of Phoenix very much to the front. It is also hoped that a water polo league may be formed and as the various teams will be coached by Frank MeOrath. the noted coast ex pert, great results are looked for. Owing to changes in the pumping system, made during the winter, the flow of water through the pool is almost double that of last year, and in addition t th wutlet at end of the pool, there is a new overflow at the upper end of the south side that feeds the pretty lit tle stream running; around the new island.

Heaviness resulting almost wholly from the latest espects of international affairs was at tended by the unusually dull market. Prices moved up and down according o the caprices of the trading element, which was in moIc command of the op erations. On the whole, war specialties fared better than other issues, being helped in a measure by reports of more large contracts for supplies to the al lies. Total pales of stocks amounted to 450.00(1 shares. Resumption if divi dends and even the form of the scrip of the Virginia and Carolina Chemical preferred, was regarded as an indica tion of better industrial conditions in the south. There were increased in quiries for copper metal nt the highest prices recently recorded, while the placing of a small loan by the ISolivian government bore directly upon this country') steady advance as a center of finance. Total sales represented a par value of $3,317, ooo. Stocks Kleetrolytic, $19; Silver, r,0: Copper, firm.

Two come dies are also on the bill, one called The Doctor's Strategy." from the beauty studios and the other a Key stone entitled patches To Plenty." which is very amusing. Lamara's Good Bill The episode of the "Kxplnit of Klaine" showing the operations of "The levil Worshippers" which is now showing at the Ijimara Theater is the f best that has yet been ehown of this popular serial. It is the most exciting number vet and adds interest to the rest of the series because of the. actual truth that Kennedy comes to of the identity of "The Clutching Hand". The confession is made to Kennedy by a member of the Devil Worshippers clan who is caught in the act of ill treating Elaine and who is released on the con- uition that he reveal the secret that has so bothered the scientific detective in his work of protection and detection around the rich young woman. Who is "The Clutching Hand"? can you guess. Look at tho present number of the ser ies and then see if you can guess ac curately. There Is another feature to the program of three reels in the form of a very much worth while Pathe drama. " The program w;u run again today. Mary Pickford at Arizona Mary Pickford, "America's Sweet heart" is at the Arizona today in "Miistress Xell" a -five part drama re leased by tl.e Paramount program. The story is most attractive and the part should fit Miss Pickford like a glove. It made Henrietta Crossman famous, inr night when it was pro duced as a play in Xcw York and In its trahsferance to the screen it has lost no,ne of its charm. Mirts Pickford will be supported by Owen Mqpre and a particularly capable cast. The picture will be on view at the Arizona tonight and tomorrow with a special matinee on Saturday.

The demand which predicts the biggest gathering to leave this -city on the Shrine pilgrimage in the year is due to the fact that at this sea Frit X'ogales offers much to the vis itors and in addition to the delight ful climate at the season the local bunch of Shriners are trying to out do Yuma which hung up a record for hospitality this spring when that city entertained the shriners from this temple. The novelty of a real bull fight, is perhaps the magnet which Is ac counting for the big advance reserva tion, but it will be only one of the several things the entertainment com mittee has up its sleeve for the edifi cation of the party from here. The arrival last night from, the makers in the east of a lot of new instruments of torture especially con structed for use on trips over the desert and coupled with a lot of side degree stunts the novices numbering over fifty will have cause for re memberance when they have been in vested with the final word of the order. The entertainment committee, so the men in charge here have been informed, will see that the banquet which is to be a feature of the three days" ceremonial, is served where the constitutional amendment will not hamper the spirit of the occasion.
