TUCSON, Ariz 12 —Mexican bandits held up the stage which runs be- tween Potane 1 Torin on the Yaqui River in Sonora last Tuesday night and killed all of the six passengers. Among them was Filberto Alvarado, a wealthy Mexican, who owns a number of ranches along the Yaqui r. The authorities at Guaymas were at once notified. Alvarado and his wife had taken the stage from Potane “to Torin, and the ban- | dits no doubt thought that he carried a large sum of y with him. The stage carried ve mail and rarely any money or v that Alvarado must have b b rk for the bandits. The holdup took place about half way between the two towns.

Sttt @ SIN FRANGISED REED'S SUBDECT Ix-Supervisor Speaks on Government of Municipality. Charles Wesley Reed, at one time a Supervisor of the city and county of San Francisco, delivered a lecture last night under the auspices of the Labor Lyceum at the Academy of Sciences, his subject ‘A Decade ernment in San Francisco. | Mr. Reed told of ihe tide of municipal | affairs from 15%. He said in that year San Francisco was suffering from as evil an administration as ever humiliated ‘and disgraced an American ci About that time the people, regardless of partisan- ship, began to act together in the hope of securing a better state of affairs, and under the leadership of James D. Phelan effected a revolution in favor of good gov- ernment, which reached its high tide in January, 1900. From that time the cur- rent had been flowing steadily against | the reformers, Mr. Reed said. The speaker then dweit on the time when corrupt boss rule possessed the town. It was in 185§, he said, that Mr. Bryce, in his American Commonwealth, while writing of the “extravagance, cor- ruption and mismanagement which marks the administration of most of the great | cities of the United States,” sald that “the jet black of New York and San | Francisco dies away Into a harmless gray in the lesser cities.” This was at the time when the “blind boss,” Chris Buck- ley. had San Francisco in his elutches. His reign was absolute. The Board of Supervisors annually fixed gas and water rat. and Buckley made the board “*hold up” the corporations supplying these com- modities and then coliected large sums of money for the passage of “fair” water and gas rates. “When Mayor James D. Phelan, in Jan uary, 180, encouraged the new charter, Mr. Reed continued, “it seemed as if the millennium of good government was about to be ushered into S8an Francisco, Alas for human hopes! Mr. Phelan as a leader of opposition was matchless. As a construc- tive statesman he was a colossal fallure. The brilllant and successful opponent of bossism no sooner was interested with the vast powers granted to the Mayor | under the new charter than he became a boss himself.” Mr. Reed next paid attention to the| present Mayor, Mr. Schmitz. He spoke | highly of him as the representative of the | | new Union Labor party, but feared that | political patronage was leading him to | destruction. Mr. Reed then took up the future ot | | San Francisco, saying: ““We have seen | Los Angeles take over its own water sys- | tem; we have seen Portland g0 ahead, but BSan Francisco has stood still.” He went | on to tell of the condition of the San | Francisco sewer system and the faultiness | of its construction and of the insufficlency | of the schoolhouses. He also condemned | | the City and County Hospital. He closed | | by saying that should the Democratic party be able to pull itself together and put up a man friendly to the Union ubor | party he might be elected. i po et i Y Distinguished Guests Coming.

This year such a play was sought, but it was found that the time vas not available to revise one of the Eilzabethan dramas for’ presentation. Rather than to allow the custom of giv- ing a theatrical performance on the an- niversary of the university’s founding to fall into abeyance, the senior class decid- ed to stage the Daly play. It will be giv- ‘en at the Macdonough Theater in Oak- and. “The Great Unknown” is a high class comedy, and will be presented by a cast student actors who have all had ex- perfence on the stage. The leading role will be taken by Miss Teddy Howard, the daughter of * Instructor Howard of the faculty. Howard has already scored reveral jes in the fleld of college theatricals. The others who will appear in the play are: Miss Tallulah Le Conte, Miss Anne Thatcher, Miss Portia Acker- man, Miss Bertha Reuter, Miss E. I.
