AMUSEMEN
NEW THEATRE coMIQUE.

Miss Fannie Louise Buckingham, who
commences an engagement of one week to-
night at the New Theatre Comique in her
famous character Of Mazeppa, comes to
us loudly heralded by the New York and
Boston press for her fine physique and per-
sonal appearance. She is an Irish beauty
and direct descendant of the Kelley's, of
Kelog, Ireland, being a grand daughter of
John Kelley. When child of five years
she was brought to this country by her
parents. The family located in Baltimore,
Nd. where her father purchased an in
terest in the famous marble and
limestone quarries of that county,
which have made the family wealthy.
Miss Sallie Ward known upon the stage
as Miss Fannie Louise Buckingham) was
bright vivacious child, and manifested
in early life longing desire for the stage.
After liberal education and graduating at
Lutherville Seminary, she decided to en-
bark in the dramatic life, aud being a
thorough horsewoman she selected " Ma
zeppa" for the venture, and made her debut
at the Broadway Theatre, New York, in
1877. From the opening night
her success has been phenomenal
and to-day she stands without
rival in the celebrated character she per-
sonates. Many of our readers know of this
artist through the columns of the New
York papers, and some may remember her
as being in our city four years ago, the only
time she has ever appeared in Washington.
Manager Snelbaker, who is ever on the
alert for the best attractions, has arranged
at large expense with this lady to appear
here as stated, and we predict for him
packed houses the entire week as just re-
turn for his enterprise.
NATIONAL THEATRE.
Barley Campbell's inspiring and thrill
ling drama, THE White Slave" will be
given at the National this week by an
unusually strong company. This is one of
the finest productions of Mr.. Campbells
versatile pen, and will doubtless draw
crowded houses.
FoBD's oPERA-HoUsE.
The finest of English opera companies,
the IDEAL will occupy Fords another
week and will Of course draw immensely.
The exquisite singing and acting of the
vocalists, the superior stage management
and the gorgeous costumes combine to
make this company the best that has ever
visited Washington. The bohemian Grip
will be given tonight.
POLO AT THE SKATING RINK.
The third game of polo between the
Washington and Baltimore teams will be
played at the rink tonight. There will
be very large attendance, and as this is
the deciding game Of the series, hot con-
test may be expected. Subscription lists
are now open for the advanced circling clas:
to commence Tuesday, January %.
NEW DIME MUSEUM.
There are lots of new attractions at the
Dime Museum this week. The great dos
circus remains and the stereopticau pano-
rama. The stage performances are very
good.
DRIVERS GARDEN.
The old fashioned concerts by Colone
Rogers and Professor Anders continue tC
interest Mr.. Drivers patrons nightly.

The Washington city Police Court has
evidently not heard that the laws of this
country do not extend so altitudinously as
to embrace the Attorney-General within
their jurisdiction. The Washington city
Police Court has tried to compel the Astor-
ney- General to sweep the snow off his

Attorney General decided that, in a case in
which he had violated the law by using an
official envelope for private purposes, it was
impertinence in any district-attorney to

On Saturday, Sept. 8th, between the
hours OF 10 and l., at a point fifty
miles west Of Helena. the golden spike
was driven home and marked the com
plction Of the Northern Pacific railroad
and one Of the most gigantic feats Of
financial and civil engineering in tie
history Of the nation. We will not
give a detailed history Of this enter
prise from its incipiency. as the leading
journals of the northwest have been
6nel with such matter until all are
weary of details II IS proper and
Giting however. that the completion
Of such a gigantic industry should he
celebrated with pomp and splendor.
Perhaps there never was assembled on
one occasion. in this country, so many
mcn of mark and wealth IS were pres

The road should he hailed with delight

As was expected, the jury in the
James trial, at Gallatin, Mo, after a
brief retirement, brought in a verdict
Of mot guilty" One Of the principal
witnesses Tor the defense was General
Shelby, of confederate fame, under
whom the whole gang served during
the war There is no doubt that the
feeling engendered al that time had
something to do with the verdict, yet
it was not clearly proven that Frank
James was present at the Winston train
robbery, on which charge he was tried.
As these outlaws have as many friends
as enemies within the limits Of the
State, it would be difficult to secure a
different verdict on any charge that
could be brought

We would suggest that some Of our
citizens petition the county commiss.
ioners to appoint fire warden for our
camp. The fact that not single
building in town has a brick fue,
and all the structures are of an inham-
able character. Is sufficient cause for
prompt action and strong measures
taken to protect our property and
town As yet not a single dollars
worth Of insurance is carried, and
neither can it be secured without pay
ing an enormous rate.
If the appointment Of fire warden
can he secured this quarter, ere the
next sitting Of the board Of commiss-
ioners. we can and will have a good
hook and ladder company organized,
and all buildings supplied with brick
chimney, thus putting us in position
to protect our property and lessen the
dangcrof fire 100 per cent Insurance
can then be secured at a reasonable
rate. Let property holders attend tc
this matter at once.

another fr-shoot that mikes the mines
Of Wmrans, Deadwood anil Boise Basin
and appears to continue on into the east
ern part Of the State of Neva Ia. AT
Elk City the top gravel Of this lead has
been worked and it paid well for working
this place, and Cranes mines is the only
places that this lead has been worked in
the channel from Elk City to Orc Fino.
This lead is confined to its channel in tho
Gro Fino district this lead lays parallel
with creek called Orogrand and it is :
good place to open this lead BY tunnel
from Gro Fino to spur Of the Ceur d
Alene mountains; this lead is hard to
trace, the und,rgrowth and bushes being
so dense in this spur Of the Cnur d Alene
mountains; this channel or lead passes
over the heads of the ravines and leaves
some fine colors of gold in the ravines.
This lead is traceable from the Cascade
mountains to this point on the northeast
line. From this point | turned back be-
lieying that day would come that it would
be clearly shown that there was direct
connection Of the placer mines Of Mon
tana with the placer mines Of California
by and through this deep channel in the
Blue mountains and also q similar
connection of the placer mines Of Brit
ish Columbia with the placer mines Of
California by and through the main chan
nel in the Cascade mountains on the east
side The wealth of the Blue lead and
other deep channels is well known and
needs no comments from me, but if the
spirit Of prospecting Of '52 up to '58
could again be revived the annual yield
of gold from the placer mines would soon
be doubled and from the peculiar locality
of these deep channels the State Of Oregon
> would reap the greatest benefit and the
city Of Portland would soon become !
grand commercial emporium and the cen
ter of attraction on the Pacific Coast. In
addition to the above, in the course Of my
travels through Oregon, Idaho and Wash
ington Territory, / observed a number
of base metal lodes, some Of them having
boen located by some former prospecting
parties, but the great misfortune is that
the prospectors are all poor men and know
, nothing about working these ores by tho
smelling process, but there will soon be Z
= furnace introduced that will work so har-
monious with the smelling process that
the miners will be able to work those base
, metal ores, this is very, much needed at
the present time. This was written ten
years ago, but | have withheld it in the
hopes that there would be some mines
discovered somewhere along the line Of
this channel SO might be able to offer
the same for proof of the above statements
and here offer thuse mines that has
been discovered in the Cnur d Alcne
mountains as that proof.

Nov. 10, 1883.
Mn. EDIToR:-For long time the
miners Of Nevada county entertained the
idea that the mining camps Of Alpha and
Omega was continuation of the Blue
lead, but such is not the case for Maj.
Downey, that venerable mountaineer, has
run tunnol into a mountain ridge some
20 miles to the east of thoae camps and
has tapped deep channel having all Of
the indications Of the Blue lead and be-
yond all doubts this IL the re-discoyery
Of the Blue lead south, for nowhere south
of Sierra county has this lead been open
ed and worked by the miners, This dis
covery will be great benefit to the
southern part Of California, for it will
stimulate the miners to renew their re-
searches for the Blue lead farther south
and | predict that the miners will trace
and open it to the southern line Of Cali
tornia before many years.
In 1870 | extended my exploring into
the State Of Oregon for the Blue lead
Previous to that date however, | was
aware Of a deep channel running parallel
with the Blue mountain, through the
Eastern Oregon and Idaho, a fac simile
Of the Bluo'lcad Of California while ex-
plorng in that region years ago I discov-
cred that the deep channel in the Blue
mountains formed junction with the
main channel short distance south of
the Three Sisters in the Cascade noun
Ia ns and as | have given the line of the
main channel in former article through
Oregon and Washington Territory, |
will now give the line Of this northeast
tributary of the ancient river bed comon-
ly called the Blue lead
From the Three Sisters to the head
of Crooked river this lead is confined to
its channel showing some fine gold in the
head of Beaver creek iiom Crooked river
to Canyon City, it is confined to the
channel, but at Canyon City it broke over
its rim and made those shallow mines
Of Canyon creek, from Canyon City to
Granite creek. 1t is difficult from Granite
creek to Cranes mines on the head of
Grandc Rounde river, it is confined to its
channel here at Cranes mines. This
channel is opened and worked and has
paid well for working from Cranes mines
to the head Of Burnt river, this lead
shows well and it would be good place
to open it with shaft or tunnel here
near Burnt ifyer. This lead ike that
of the Blue lead Of California, makes
an ofi-shoot that makes the mines Of Rye
Valley, Mormon Bason, an colorado.
From Burnt Iiv,rto Snake river this lead
is difficult to trace, bur on the east side
Of Snake river it is better and appears to
cross Big Salmon river just above Little
Salmon river and continues on to Florence

is confined to its channel Passing through
and under Buffalo Hump at the north
