For the past two weeks two colored
men, Robert Parker and Ed. Chase, have
been quite prolific with giving whisky 10
their friends, besides keeping their own
hides pretty we'll saturated with bug
juice, They loaied around the PLun.x
saloon Of 4. f.. WEIGH, on north Third
street, and the proprietor Tor the past
few days has been suspicious q their
movements, Last evening, about :
o'clock, he observed Parker at a barrel
Of whisky and an investigation proved
that the ely fellow had secured key TO
the faucet Of the barrel and wac filiDg
up some bottles. Chase was helping
him. The matter was reported to the
police, and Policeman Cooper soon had
Parker arrested. Early this morning
Chase waa slso arrested by Policemen
Cooper and Rogers. They we're taken
before Justice Lockbart. and Parker
confessed his guilt, lie was fired 800
and costs, or three months IN the county
Jail. Chase was fined g. and ros,s. or

Mojeska is coming to the Burtis at
Davenport tomorrow evening, ana TO
the rank and file of theatre goers this
speaks volumes. And, as she is 60
ing to present her elaborate produc-
ton of Henry VIII and appear herself
in a character entirely new to the
play goers of this city, easily gives
her engagement the first place in the
record of the current theatrical sea-
son. She has personality that is
the most delightful on the stage, and
the perfection of her art years ago
made her theatrical idol with the
public of this country. She invests
her new character of katharine" in
Henry VIII with charm of thanner
and grace of diction that are too often
absent in the characteriEations of
most travelling stars. Her intellect
ual attainmentS are also of the first
quality. and enable her to gain a
clearer and deeper insight in
to the inspiration of the text
than could be expected from
any other actress on the stage.
Her knowledge. too, OF stage art has
enabled her to decide with fine dis
elimination what to omit and what
to include in preparing this historic
play for modern dramatic presenta-
ton. Her company is beyond all
question the greatest now presenting
legitimate drama, and is headed by
Mr.. Otis skinner. of whom the New
York Herald of December 4th last
said, was 1.-The most likely successor
of the gifted Edwin kBooth." The
entire New York production will be
brought here without curtailment of
any kind.

WHITE OAKS DISTRICT.
Notes from the Rich Gold Camp in
Lincoln County.

In reviewing the mining industry IL
this camp for the past year, it may be sait
that it has been year of more than usua
activity in mining matters, especially il
regard to prospecting. The first dis
covery of Importance was made in thu
North Homestake in the fall of 1892
when new body of ore was cut on tht
1000 foot level which was as large as tht
body that had been followed down to thai
point. The new discovery had beer
worked to some extent by wnze and il
showed it to be higher grade ore, carry
ing at least 81 ton more than the Other
ore body. This is conclusive evidence
that depth in this camp is of great bene
fit, and shows the permanency of oul
veins.
The next important discovery was that
of water, made by the Old Abe company
They sunk we'll in White Oaks canon
which yields $4,000 gallons of water daily,
and now furnishes sufficient water to run
20-stamp mill and for all other pur-
poses at the mine, without using the water
over again. The Importance of this water
is shown by the fact that the four other
mills have to all use return water.
The discovery made on the Vera
Cruz mines which lie between
here and Nogal and which has not
been worked for the past nine
years, is showing this to be one of our
best gold mines, on which there has been
erected 15-stamp mill in the past sixty
days. There have been good discoveries
made on the South Homestake, Lady
Godiva and Old Abe mines, besides those
above referred to.
The Old Abe company has the past
winter erected twenty stamp mill at
their mine with all the modern improve
ments and attachments. They have also
run a pipe line from their we'll, $500 feet
south of the mine, to a reservoir above
the mill, with two Dean steam pumps
which pump the water up the mountain
to the reservoir, which is made like a
cistern and holds 10000 gallons of water.
The elevation which this water has to be
raised is 500 feet. This makes the best
plant of its size in the territory.
The working shaft of the South Homo
stake mine was destroyed by fire two
years ago, last July. The company own
ing the mine commenced to make a new
shaft, and they are now down 300 feet,
with several levels, which are yielding
some good $40 ore. The company did
not expect to encounter ore until they
reached depth of 500 feet, at which point
they expected to cut the lowest level of
their old works. Work on this property
is being pushed and it is expected that
the mine will soon be able to keep their
twenty stamp mill constantly stocked
with ore.
The output of bullion has not been as
good the past year on account of the Old
Abe being closed down, while the new
mill was being erected, which took seven
months. The prospect for the coming
year is very fattering.
The Jicarilla mountains have had con-
siderable attention the past year and
there have been number of discoveries
made which are being worked, yet they
