Mr.. E. J. Buckley as the Lancashire lad,
Jem Sta'key, rendered his part with the
usual excellence that distinguishes every
thing Mr.. Buckley plays, and carried the
sympathy OF tho audience with him in its
measure. Mr.. Hamilton as Noah Leroyd,
gave u splendid performance OF a wronged
and suffering father. His makeup
was in itself n picture, and if unlim-
tied applause is q tok n OF meritorious

PARIS. May 31.-The rel .ase Of Jean
Mistral from the Montpelier Asylum for
the Insane is the absorbing topic OF conver-
sation. in Paris. This unfortunate man,
who, by the way, is a cousin to the great
Provincial poet, Frederick Mistral, the
author of the pastural epic, "Mireio"
(Mireille,) has been u~niustly maintained in
a m~adhouse for many years past and
through the u~ntirins efforts oftae Vo1taire,
which hiss been making a vigorous CAM
paian against the present lunacy laws in
France, has now been released by the
tribunal at Tarascon. He comes forth
from his long imprisonment an old broken
down man, q physical wreck, but, FORUM
ately, with hia strong mental facilities un-
impaired. The evidence brought out re-
vealed a hideous plot carried out years
ag by members OF his own family, who
wished to get possession Of the fortune
which he was to inherit. and which now ia
said to amount to several million of francs.
Fifty years ago Jean Mistral fell in love
with an opera singer named DOmbrowska,
whom he married in Poser, Prussian Pc.

parents refused to recog lize the marriage,
and his relatives even went so far as to cause
her to be expelled from France in 1887,
after she had refused to accept an annuity
OF 500 t" acknowledge herself a Of
lewd character. Jeans parents afterward
refused to give him support. The two
then wandered out into the world for a
long time. His wife obtained lucrative
operate engagements, but finally she lost
her voice, and poverty stared the couple ia
the face. Eventually the unfortunate
woman, hoping to bring about her hus.
bands recocil;ation with his wealthy
parents, consented to a separation.
Jean Mistral returned to Provence. Ar
there, however, he was Immediately
arrested on q charge OF lunacy, and has

BANNOCK MINES.
Good Producers Of Gold, Silver and
Lead.

The leading mines east OF Sheridan ara
situated mostly on Indian and Mill Creeks.
A representative OF The MINER who has
returned from there has very flattering
reports to make of some OF them, among
which may be mentioned first the Basin
mine, owned by John Bahan & Co. The
vein in this mine varies from six inches to
two feet. and is entirely OF q free milling
character. Samples Of the ore worked gave
800 in gold to the ton. The taiIings were
afterwards assayed and went as high as $55
silver. Over 100 tons are on the dump,
and there are 500 tons more in sight
in tire mine. 1t is developed through a
shaft 100 feet in depth, but has another
shaft which is sunk fifty feet; a tunnel has
also been started to tapth vein at q depth
of ESQ feet.
On Mill Creek the Bush and Meyers mines
are the most promising at present. These
mines are being developed from a depth of
100 feet. The ore vein averages about
eighteen inches, and found mostly in a soft
iron-stained formation, and clears, the
owners say, SIS to tho ton in arastras.
is Of low grade. Lead leads seem to inter
weave in the foothills, near this claim.
The veins are generally Of big dimensions,
averaging in size from ten to forty feet.
The averages taken from these leads show
25 per cent. lead, 80 ounces silver and
some gold.
In Georgia Gulch the Keynote takes the
lead OF all the base mines. Sam Van Meter,
the fortunate owner OF this discovery, Is
extracting pay "truck' at the rate Of a
carload per month. The vein ia fully four
feet wide, but On account of a "horse"

The Saturday Night, High Ridge, Mag

from them, and there is no doubt OF their
becoming permanent paying mines.
