hrcEs SURPRISE PARTY.

5000 = H"
AT Leubrie's theater, last night, the
Rico Surprise Party performed "Hor-
rors' to a moderate attendance. The
piece is a sort Of e%xtravagant musical
burlesdue, full of graceful and grot-
esque dancing, handsome costumes,
shapely feminine 6gures-som tall
and slender, others straight and lean,
still others full and feshy, with several
forms perfect and pretty enough for
an artist to model statuary from. A
number OF comic airs were cleverly
sung during tho course Of the play.
while Rotations, limitations and other
features were received with consider
able favor by the audience. A scene
on shipboard, representing a vessel
rolling in the waves Of the blue ocean
as it sailed, with incidents character
istic to sailor life, proved interesting,
and many Of the m~imicalities were de-
cidedly amusing. There is nothing to
offend the most fastidious in the
sprightly and novel entertainment. 1t
will be repeated tonight, while "Hia.
watha' is the bill on tomorrow night

WOODEN GOODS for sale, which
have been made this season, 1881,

not fail to please them.
Our goods can be found in stock

Office, mus. execute another's will;
he must be as near like President
Garfield would have been as he can,
following the course mapped out by
his predecessor, and conducting an
administration less his own than the
ones whom he succeeds. GARFIELD is
the martyr, respected, honored, loved
and almost worshiped by the Amer
lean people. His course, whatever
might have been thought of i: had
he been spared, will now and ever
after be lauded as the true and proper
one to follow during these four years
at least, and particularly by hin
whose elevation comes through the
peculiarly unhappy and tragic down
fall of the martyr.
This is the distressing predicament
in which General Arthur finds him
self. If he succeeds he will prove
himself a great man, of whom the ma
ton will feel proud; If he fails, il
will be because the circumstances are
against him and the people do not
lend him that support which ne so
much needs. We believe he will sue

the most brilliant OF Presidents. GER

1t has previously been thought that
more satisfactory investments could
be made in developed mines than in
prospect holes, but investors in mining
property have now come to the con-
cluslon tuat this is wrong, and that
prospects which show good ore and
true fssure veins, with good location,
are better property than developed
mines. The reason of this can be
plainly seen. Prospects of the best
kind can be purchased at prices which
are so far below their real value that
the cost of developing figures only in
the investment. For instance, a pros
pect is bought for S., 900, and it costs
$4,000 to develop it then the prop
erty is worth S1,ooo,o 900, and more
than The original cost of the property
can be taken from the mine semi
annually. On the other hand, let the
cost Of a developed mine be, say,
81, 200, 900, and allow the production
to reach 100000 semi-annually.
This demonstrates the decided advan-
tage Of the former transaction.

II BURIED CITY OF NEW
MEXICO.

About 22 miles southwest Of Albu-
querque, the ruins of an ancient city
have been discovered, which, it is
claimed, was one of the seven cities of
Cibola. The ruins Of a large church
or temple have been discovered which
measures over 200 feet square. Some
hammers have also been unearthed but
nothing in the shape Of sharp edged
or steel tools has been found. About
five miles from this large ruin twenty
five old smelterS have been discovered.
Mr.. Patterson has also a lot of pot
terry, consisting of drinking vessels
used by these old inhabitants of the
country. The vessels are of various
designs, representing several species
Of birds and antelope. Some Of the
specimens are striped and spotted,
with black coloring. An old man
named Baxter found, in digging
down, a chamber about ten feet
square, having On one side fireplace,
across which hung crane with clay
hook, and at the end of the clay hook
was bone. On the opposite side Of
the fireplace was found the skeleton
Of a man in sitting position, who
was evidently watching the bone
roasting for his meal, when he and
his habitation were overwhelmed by
sudden discharge of lava from the
mountain. There are lava beds near
there extending about fifty miles, and
Mr.. Paterson is Of the belief that the
entire population, in some former
period, must have been suddenly ex-
terminated by great volcanic erup-
ton. He thinks at one time the crater
of these mountains was sixty miles
long and from fifteen to twenty miles
across, an eruption from which would
destroy every living thing within
hundred miles.-ANa9aergue Reove7o.

Il ROYAL BUSINESS.

Asthe leading business of the world
the production of bullion takes the
palm.
Gas Prof. Clayton, in an address,
said !; the bullion, the product of your
mines, is always welcome in the
markets of the world. 1t won't rot,
it won't rust dry or wet seasons have
but little effect upon its production !;
tits secure from the ravages of bugs
and grasshoppers. Tariffs don't in
terfere with its value; commercial
panics do not destroy the chances of
selling it, for it is the representative
of values.
F" 1t also represents power. 1t gives
you the force necessary to maintain
governments, build up manufactures,
to establish and carry on the world S
commerce, and to cover our broad
lands with interlacing railroads and
telegraphs. 1t gives the power to es-'
tablish and maintain every branch Of
industry required by civilized man. 1t
makes civilization possible.
1t is not strange, therefore, that
mining for the precious metals has a
peculiar fascination about it, makes
miner producer of money, a creator
of wealth, and a co-worker with di-
vine law in subduing and beautitying
the earth.
+" We may add that these last men
toned considerations should have
their weight with the capitalist who,
when he invests in mines materially
aids the obtainment of the best re-
suits that nature can afford. And not
only is this the case, but the risks he
runs are no more, if as much, as they
are in other ventures that are con-
tinually commanding themselves,
though their returns are>by no means
handsome or remunerative.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1881-06-02
Il LATE DECISION.

Improvements on real estate are
generally conceded to be houses,
fences, outbuildings, etc. Improve
ments On mines are different things,
and what they constitute has been a
mooted question. The United States
laws require certain annual expendi-
sures for Improvements on mining
claims. Most miners have concluded
that the improvements must be in the
form Of shafts, tunnels, wines or
drifts. 1t seems, however, that roads
and necessary work Of any kind may
be included in estimate of required
500 annual expenditures. ]. A.
Williams, Commissioner of the Cen
eral Land Office, has decided that all
Improvements made upon a mining
claim, and having a direct relation to
the development thereof, may be taken
into consideration by surveyors-gen-
eral as basis for certificate of COM
pliance with the law regarding expen-
dltures. In his decision the commits
sioner says: i" Any building, machin-
cry, roadway Or other Improvements
used in connection with, and essential
to the practical development of the
surveyed claim, will enter into and
form a part of the expenditures for
Improvements, to which you are re-
quired to certify. Necessarily, how
ever, improvements of the character
indicated must be associated with
actual excavations, such as cuts, tun-
nels, shafts, etc, SO as to clearly show
that they are intended for use in con-
nection with the claims under consid-
Grafton. Deputies should make full
report of the facts in each case. In
der this ruling (for it is only ruling,
not law a man may buy a $500
portable hosting engine and put it on
claim, and the purchase will answer
for his years expenditure on the
claim. Or he may build a road to his
mine from a mill in town.. and make
that serve for his expenditures. In all
probability this rule will be taken ad-
vantage of in some few instances to
evade legitimate expenditure, but the
ruling is such that surveyors general
can exercise some discretion, so that.
with honest officials no harm will re-
suit. In many instances the rule will
be of benefit to poor miners, who can
spend their money on their claims in
a different direction from what thev
have been accustomed to.

The tragic end of Billy Leroy, the
stage robber, brings to mind a joke
perpetrted at his expense by Judge
Hallett, Of the United States court.
On calling up Leroy for sentence, the
judge asked him his age, and the p,is-
oner responded grufly, twenty
three" The judge then proceeded
to sentence the prisoner to ten years
to the penitentiary, adding, "Th4t
will make your age just thirty-three
when you are discharged, young
enough to become member of cor
gress or an Indian agent" Judge
Hallet does not often indulge in sar-
casm, but when he does it is effective.
