The Boston Journal says: GAS regards the FL

The Boston Journal says: 'As regards the fI-
ture of the company, that of course remains to
be decided. Whether a brilliant success or 9th
erwise will, as a matter of course, depend upon
the traffic it enjoys, the ability of the Mexican
government to keep its pledges, and the readi-
ness with which funds can be raised to keep the
pledges which the company has made to the
government in relation to building the additional
mileage included in the concession. 1t auguers
well for the future, that those of our capitalists
who have the largest interests at stake in the en-
terprise appear to have full faith that it will
prove a great success" The Journal adds:
What would p. P. F.. DeGrand and other pio-
neers of what are called Boston railroads say,
had they been alive to the fact that a ride of
3, 300 miles is now possible from the Hub to the
capital of the Montezumas.H

GRAND OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES TRoUDA-
DoURS.
Salsburys Troubadours, one of the most popu-
lar companies that visit this city, began an en-
gagement at the Grand last night in their new
farcical comedy 'Three of a Kind, A" and the per-
Torrance was received with continued and up
roarious laughter by a good audience. The
piece, while probably not so well suited to them
as is 'Green-room Fun affords opportunities
for any amount of amusing business, and .ridicu-
lous situations, and the company present it ex-
cellently. Miss Nellie McHenry is still the
bright particular star, and her songs and viva
cious ways are calculated TO please everybody.
She is as clever and versatile a performer as is
often seen. Salisbury is a natural comedian and
a "gagger' of high degree, and in the card play
ing scene in the piece he is irresistibly funny.
He, with John Webster and W. 5. Daball, form
the Three of a Kind" indicated by the title Of
the play. Neither of tho other two gentlemen
have much to do, however. A valuable acquisi-
ton to the company is Miss Josie Langley. a
bright little soubrette, who does a very crcdita-
BILE bit of straight acting. Other parts were
creditably assumed by Mr.. T. L. johnson and
Mr.. L. j. Loring. Three of a Kind will be
presented again tonight, tomorrow afternoon
and tomorrow night.

H zoo THEATER.

The reception accorded Harry Miners Comedy
-Four Combination, at the Zoo, last night, was
cordial in the extreme. The attendance was
large and the entertainment a good one. The
card of the evening, new to the people and stage
here, was the phenomenal artist, Shaw, who,
caparisoned in the glittering raiment of a serio-
comic queen, deceived all until the last verse of
his song, when he betrayed his sex by some deep
bass notes. Fannie Beane and Charles Gilday
found favor by their excellent dancing and fun
making. Murphy and Mack in their sketch,
You Can Make a Speech, and L Can't Make
performers were the Jeromes, Jacklcy Wonders
(misHomers), Wesley Brothers, Mccarthy and
Coleman, and Prince Katsunoshing and wife.
The comedy, ''Murphy's Christening" closed.
The company will remain all week, and under
line the usual matinees.

who became alarmed when they learned Of
the raid,
About twenty-five men were arrested
during the night, fully twenty-five others
were ordered to leave the city and ten or
fifteen more were reported as mysteriously
missing from the haunts where they have
long been conspicuous characters.
Marshal Schnitger stated to a reporter
ofTHE LEADER that the raid was an adj
vised one, and that it had been Under
consideration for about a week. Its pur-
pose is primarily to rid the city Of all hab-
itual idlers, and secondly, to establish a
police surveillance which will make burg
laries and street robberies 50 hazardous
that they will cease. By Kidding the city
of the genteel loafers and the lower order
of gamblers, it is believed that the posi-
bility of capturing criminals will be in
creased and that crime will also decrease.
At any rate the moral effect Of the sum
mary action taken yesterday and last wen
ing, will doubtless be beneficial.

A Brisk Dramatic Criticism.


Correspondence Of The Leader.
FoRr LARAMIE, Wyo., December 10.
We have just recovered from a p%aralytic
stroke, caused by a visit to this post of a
very snide troupe. consisting Of a male
and two brazen-faced females. Before
these hard -favoFed creatures afflicted us
with their bootblack songs and concert
saloon voices. our souls were soft and
juicy, and fragrant with nactic ardor; now
they are hard, dry and as devoid of sweet
sounds as an of-wheel mule on an army
water wagon. They did not remain long,
for after a few days the rickcty stage
coach carried them away; but the thoughts
of many wandered with them. Let il
here be said that they left behind several
admirers and mourners, also many debts,
not to mention a broken legged piano, the
property of Sergeant Buckley. The wife
and-nine-children soldier, it is said, was
the only one benefited by their visit; he
was the doortender.
Their claim to be actors was the great
est specimen of cold, marrow freezing.
unadulterated gall that has ever come
within the limits of the writer's vision.
They tortured a good-natured audience,
and the effects produced left us weak and
limp, like a prize fighter on whose behalf
his seconds throw up the sponge, there
being no alternative but to be content
with the commonplace condition in which
the Lord has placed us. BUD"

%pIscovERED IN TIME.
The Residence Of George A.. Draper
Narrowly Escapes Destruction.

-n
Wednesday morning Mr.. George A.
Draper observed the odor of burning pine
wood in his residence on Ferguson street,
but surprising some member of the house
hold had placed pine a crate he dismissed
the matter from his mind. In the early
evening he again remarked the presence
of the odor. Mr.. and Mrs. Draper passed
the evening with friends and about 10
O'Clock returned to their home. When
they entered the house they discovered a
heavy cloud of smoke in the upper story,
while the smell of burning wood was quite
strong. A hasty investigation was made
and the interior of a wall was found to be
on fire. A carpet was torn up, a hole was
hurriedly cut in the floor and a few buck
cts of water extinguished the fire.
The fire was caused by the intense heat
of a CRATE. The ends Of the rafters were
charred and eventually the fire reached
the woodwork between the floor of the
second story and the ceiling of the lower
one. IL also had erept upwards IN the
wall adjoining the CRATE. Not being sup
piled with air the wood had smouldered
all day and even when the fire was discov-
cred it had not burst into a blaze. Within
a few hours the timbers of the attic and
roof must have also been ignited and then
the entire house would have been
ablaze. m
The loss will approximate $500. The
ceiling of the first story was ruined by the
water dashed on the raitens overhead, a
valuable carpet was spoiled and the in ad-
dition TO the necessary repairs, the walls
will require new decorations. No alarm
was given and the fire was not reported
until yesterday morning.

flourish there luxuriantly. Coal is found
in abundance; the pasture lands are we'll

that the coal in use was brought only a

ing they began an aggressive warfare.
Sheriff Sharpless, Deputy Sheriff Hos
ford and Policemen Nolan, Deitrick, Sui
liyan and Smith were particularly active
in the roundup OF the suspicious charac-
tens. The men arrested are, in the main,
common gamblers, genteel tramps, we'll
dressed idlers, and generally members of
that semi-criminal class whose means of
existence is at best precarious. The line
that separates them from the professional
thieves and burglars is at best a very mar
row one, and when made desperate by i'll
luck they are at least subject to tempta-
tons which, if yielded to, must result in
crime.
An extraordinary number of arrests
were made, 1t was impossible to obtain
a complete list of all those arrested and
all who were given a few hours in which
to leave the city. but the following con
spieuous cases will give an idea of the
class of men who received the distin-
guished consideration of the officers:

among those who were treated peremp-
torily. He is a fine appearing man, wears
a full beard, and dresses neatly. His
method Of obtaining a livelihood is envel-
oped in mystery and at present he is en-
veloped in the shadows Of the City Jail.
A covey of three tramps were incident
ally corralled during the round up and
were taken to the County Jail. They
were probably arrested as a hint that the
~ioafers must go.
During the heat of the raid, AS Officer
Nolan was walking along Ferguson street,
he was met by a fellow. who no sooner de
tected the officers proximity than he
turned and ran. Knowing that honest
men do not flee when they behold an Off
Ger, Mr.. Nolan started in pursuit. The
fellow ran into Pierce x Murray and hid
in a closet, but cameo out ofhis hiding place
while Nolan was in the house. He then
ran up the alley west of Ferguson street
pursued by the officer, who finally cap
tured the man in STATIONS saloon. The
