THEATRICAL.

The Dazzler, which was one of the
greatest farce-comedy successes of last
season, will be seen at the Grand opera
house on Monday, September 10th. 1t
had prosperous engagements at four Of
the New York theaters last season, and
has the stamp of metropolitan approval,
the critics generally conceding it to be
the best skit of It's kind. This season it
bids fair to be even more prosperous,
both artistically and financially, as it
will be presented by bonnie Kate Cas-
tleton, heading Cosgrove & Grants
brilliant array of comedians, cast Of
twenty first-class artists, including the
inimitable young eccentric comedian,
Joseph OFT, and the well-known artistic,
Lena Marville, whose singing and
graceful and agile dancing have gained
for her a national reputation. 1t is
said that there is not dull moment in
The Dazzler. The fun is incessant, and
iollity reigns sans intermission. Songs,
dances, specialties, medleys, laughable
situations and ludicrous complications,
all serve to form a pleasing entertain
ment and introduce the clever array of
comedians, singers, dancers, ETC., which
the management has secured to sur
round Miss Castleton. There will be a
matinee Saturday. The sale OF seats
opens tomorrow morning.

LABOR DAY.
The Trades Unions Succeeding in Hav-
ing 1t Made a National Holiday.

The Trades Unions Succeeding in Hav-
ing 1t Made National Holiday.
Governor Markham's proclamation OF
today Nabor Day. as state holiday,
marks the rapid increase of influence
welded by the trades unions OF this
country. In 1886 the American FEEDER
alton OF Labor decided to adopt the first
Monday in September as national
labor holiday, and recommended that
the various unions make the necessary
arrangements to that end. For three
years after the trades succeeded only in
localities in obtaining recognition of the
Labor Day, but it is today almost a
national holiday. About eleven states
have made it legal holiday, and Cal
ifornia's delay in so doing was caused
by proximity OF Admission Day.
The day will be celebrated by the
trades all over the country by parades,
entertainments and picnics. San FraL-
cisco promises to eclipse all former ef-
forts, over seven thousand men being
expected to be in the morning parade.
The Los Angeles trades are not desirous
of being parboiled IN the midday sun,
SO they will content themselves with
holding an open meeting this evening
at their hall, corner of First and Los
Angeles streets. A number of good
speakers will be present and probably
some literary exercises will also be
furnished.

CORNISH MINERS.
is THE CONTRACT LABOR LAW
BEING VIOLATED?
charged at the Temescal Tin Mines
to Make Room for Aliens.

The Era yesterday learned from what
it considers reliable source that not a
single American miner is now en-
ployed in and about the tin lode at Ca
jalco on the San Jacinto Estate and that
this result has been brought about since
Captain Harris and Mr.. Stevens super
ceded Col. Robinson as general man
ager of the Estate, says the Perris New
Era. Our informant also stated that
Captain Harris himself came to this
country under contract to work a stipu-
lated number of years for stated sum
of money and board. If the Cornish
laborers brought over recently, and now
employed by him in the positions recent
ly held by Americans, were employed
upon the same terms the law relating to
the importation OF alien contract labor
has been grossly and hagrantly violated
by the San Jacinto Estate Co., limited,
and the matter should at once claim the
attention of the proper officials. We feel
no enmity towards this English corpo-
ration or towards these strangers in our
midst simply because they are foreign
ers, but laws made for the protection of
American citizens and taxpayers, who
bear this country's burdens, as against
the ignorant, anarchic, pauper labor of
Europe, should be enforced to the letter.
California has already too dearly paid
for cheap labor imported by the money
kings, and charity should begin at
home.
OF the merits of the case involving the
removal of Colonel Robinson we are not
prepared to speak intelligently. His
management may have been extrava-
CANT and improper. We are told that
nearly three-quarters of a million dollars
have been expended by the company for
work that was largely unnecessary for
the development of the tin industry, and
that the company, unable or unwilling
to longer bear the burden, decided to
cut off all side issues, irrigation schemes
and extravagant accessories and that
this change of policy necessitated the
removal OF Colonel Robinson as general
manager and the substitution of practi-
cal men trained in the business of min
ing and smelling tin for the money it
brings. This may be true and we hope
for the welfare of American industries
that it is true, but what appears upon
the face, the wholesale removal of Amer
ican industry, labor and influence and
the substitution of the pernicious, de-
grading contract, shop store and COM
pany lease methods of the old country
do not put rainbow coloring upon the
face of matters and methods pertaining
to the mining of Temescal tin.

A private communication from Elsl-
more is to the effect that new mineral
field has been discovered about four
miles northwest of Lake Elsinore, near
to the southern boundary of Orange
county, where bodies of lead carbonate
ore, carrying silver and gold, have been
discovered. The ore was found by l..
D. Winder and others nearly month
ago, since which time they have been at
work on the ground sinking shaft, says
the San Diego Union. 1t is claimed
that the rock is rich enough to pay for
shipment. There is every reason to be-
lieve there is some truth in the story,
as the formation in the vicinity referred
to is known to be of kind which
might produce lead ores under favorable
conditions.
The Elsinore Press says, with regard
to the same mines:
The new mines of l.. D. Winder and
Seth Willets are likely to prove an inn
portant addition to our mineral re-
sources. The claim or claims are located
about four miles northwest from Lake
Elsinore, and by wagon road and trail,
distance six miles. The discovery is a
deposit of lead carbonates running we'll
up in silver and gold. The fortunate
owners have good thing and are to be
congratulated on their luck.
THE JULIAN MINES.
From the Julian Sentinel the following
notes concerning recent developments
are taken:
The cross-cut tunnel in the Eagle mine
has tapped the vein and drifting has
been commenced along the strike to-
ward the old workings.
The Wilcox mine is a bonanza. A re-
cent mill run resulted in a clean up of
$77 per ton. The property is owned by
L. L. Wilcox.
D. G. Lane is experimenting opera
tions at the Gold King mine and also
other properties of the Banner Mining
company.
The Stonewall is working sixty men
and twenty stamps are now dropping,
crushing forty tons of quartz daily.
One of the most prominent men of
the mining industry in Southern Califor-
mia is responsible for the statement that
the old Golden Chariot mine, near Ban
AOI, bAOuSu dUduuOucQ duQ COu6lOcIcu
worthless by many, is still one of the
most promising properties in the Cuya-
maca mountains.
Recent developments on the High
Peak mine are understood to have been
satisfactory.
PENINSULAR MINING.
The Lower Californian now says that
the new gold fields at Buena Vista in the
Valledares district do not pay, and the
stampeders are returning.
Rodencio Cesena has returned to Ala
mo from the new gold fields at Los
Chollas with 5000 sack of gold. A $40
nugget is in the lot. Still Mr.. Cesena
says the diggings will not pay.
Alamo is looking anxiously forward to-
ward a railroad. The Lower Californian
says most of the high grade rock of Ala
mo is exhausted, and its lasting prosper
ity depends on getting means to crush
rock running no higher than $12 or $15
per ton.
The Ell Paso mill has again started on
Americana ore. Fifteen men are en-
ployed in the mine.
The Princesa mill is crushing rock
from the Gold Tree, st. David, Penelope
and Newell. Charles A Martin, Barney
Perkins and Bob Matheson are working
the Tarantula.
Placer mining in Mexican gulch still
continues with varying success. There
is more practical work in the way of
prospecting going on, says the Lower
Californian, than ever before.

A Remedy for Chills and Fever.

Fl. F. Fletcher, Rochester, N. y, writes:
-Four years ago l contracted cold that set

lowed by high fever, raging headache, pain on
my left side over the lung, and every time fit
