The strong dramatic production.

theatre last evening to a shamefully
small audience. The play is one in
which the heroic role i admirably

tor whose portrayal of the leading
character evinces the highest talent
The support was generally good,
though in some respects it could
have been improved.
Patent Applied For" the new
play by Elmer f. Vance, comes to the
Burtis n Davenport tonight. There
is a storm scene in it that is the acme
of realism. 1t is not stage art, but a
real slice of nature, as ii were, trans
ferred to the stage. 1t is in the
third act of the play. a ship is seen
sailing away from land. When she
is well out at sea n storm bursts up
on her. In few minutes the sky is
overcast with threatening clouds,
real lightning flashes out of the
Egypt-like darkness; real hurricane
of wind blows great guns; the sails
of the vessel are stripped from the
masts and flung to the angry waves
which roll and toss under and along
the ship. The deck reels and reels
until the spars dip into the restless
foam beneath. Along the slippery
and wet deck are seen two struggling
men locked in each others arms, and
each trying to kill the other. Mean
while the pilot is swept away by the
breath of the tempest, and the ship
drifts helplessly along at the mercy
of the salt sea tide. Then the hero
breaks away from the grasp of the
villain, and takes the wheel and
finally bouts ship. The scene of
thrilling adventure is one of the fea-
lures of the play, Patent Applied

THE attempt of Bank Commissioner
Breidenthel, of Kansas. to boycott New
York banks will not so much alarm
New York bankers as amuse them.
That is. If it is ever brought to their at
tention at all. The Kansas banks,
through which the boycott is to operate,
are generally run by men OF common
sense, and consequently they are not
likely to do more than indulge in good
guifsw at the commissioners expense.
The first attempt to interfere with their
business would, of course, be promptly
met with an injunction, and when the
case got into court the too enterprislng
commissioner would find how big a
blunder he had made. Breidenthal
will have to be placed alongside Os born,

Gals who have written themselves down

THE MONEY CIRCULATION.

We are often asked about the amount
of money in circulation. We have got
the figures, and il the people will re-
member them it will save repetition.
We simply give the money outside
the treasury presumably in circulation
though it includes all hoardings and
all bank reserves as well.
On the first day of July, the begin
ming OF the fiscal year, there were out
side the treasury in the hands of the
people tho following amounts and kinds
OF money:
Gold coin, s4O3 1888, 400; gold certif-
Gates, 500, 970,Ol9.
Silver dollars, $57, O29, 743; silver GER
tificates, 1926, 4s9, 1855; subsidiary silver,
s65, 400, PCS.
Treasury notes, act July IA, 1890,
$500, 66l ,604.
United States Undergraduates
$500, $780, 83.
Currency certificates, act July s, 1892,
ST., 1886, 600.
National bank notes, $l74,73l ,139.
Or, in all-$1, 593, 726,4l1. When you
deduct from this the reserve banks are
required to keep on hand, the sums put
away in old stockings and safe deposit
drawers, there is not much left for train
robbers and defaulting officials to get
away with.
The amount on the first Of July last
was sos, 346, OF less than at the same
date in 1892.

BILlY'S JOKE.
The Story Of a Mountain Goat Who Is of
Humorous Turn of Mind.


Humorous Turn of Mind.
A mountain goat that1 once kept in
confinement was about as cunning as
the average street arab, and, had he
lived to maturity and kept on acquir-
ing knowledge, the chances are i would
have had to move out and give him the
ranch.
He usually followed me, says a
writer in Forest and Stream, on short
excursions into the woods, and gen.
orally kept right at my heels; but on
one occasion he Jagged behind, and,
although / called him several times,
he paid no heed. / finally walked back
to see what he was interested in and
found him busy feeding on some moss
that grew at the roots of a fir tree,
so left him and continued my tramp.
But after / had got away short dis
lance the thought occurred to me to
hide and see how he would act; so
slipped into a hollow stump close by
the trail and awaited the result. Pres
emily / heard him coming bounding
along the trail, and after he had
passed stuck out my head to watch
him. When he got twenty feet beyond
me he stopped and commenced looking
around, and the comical expression of
his face as he scanned every object
that bore any semblance to human
being caused me to burst out laughing,
when he turned and saw me. Then he
commenced to sulk and would not 60
any further, SO had to go home.
The next day he followed me as
usual, but in the midst of some thick
brush and down timber got interested
in bird that was following up, and
forgot the goat, and when l came to
look for him he wasgone. Walking back
to where | last saw him called, but
no BILLY" came in sight. Then COM
menced a diligent search, and present
ly caught sight Of something white
beneath brush heap. STOPPING down
and looking in, saw the little brute
carried up in heap, and not a move
could get out of him. Reaching in, |
caught him by the leg and pulled him
out, and gave him a good cutting on
both sides of his head. But he did
not mind it bit, and seemed to enjoy
the joke immensely, capering about in
his usual manner all the way home, as
if he would say: "You hid from me
yesterday and l hid from you to-day,
and honors are even"

bered land have yet to receive their
visit from a white man. Col. William
Denton, the well-known mining man
and surveyor, was the undesigning wit
ness of savage and exciting contest
while on his prospecting trip north of
Calamojue some weeks ago, the partic-
ulars of which he related to a San
Diego Union man. Attracted bya furi-
GUS noise in the brush and the evident
uneasiness of his animals he tied them
securely and went forward to recon-
hotter, unlimbering his gun for use if
necessary. The sight that presented
itself was certainly worth witnessing,
as battle royal between two magniti-
cent brutes. A full-grown California
lion had attacked mountain sheep,
and was finding its claws full in trying
to Yet go. The sheep was of formid-
able size, and he used his monstrous
horns with astonishing rapidity, back
ing off, stamping his feet with quick
jerk, and propelling himself at his foe
like q sure-enough battering ram.
The great yellow puma, agile and
watchful, leaped aside or into the air
to escape the onslaught of the tartar
he had caught, and with lightning
like spring he would aim to clutch the
ram behind the horns. But not once
did the interested observer see the ram
caught unawares. The heavy horns
were swung quickly on the pivot of his
sinewy neck, and received the clawing
of the cat with no effect whatever.
Col. Denton watched the sport with
all the zest of sportsman, and, on in
dications that the belligerents were
becoming mutually disguised and
about to separate and disappear, he
embraced a moment when the ram
stood stamping his fore feet preparing
to dart forward, and gave him bullet
behind the shoulder. The ram leapet
upward and forward, game to the last
and tumbled forward on his horns
Col Denton then turned to pay hi!
respects to the lion, but as the brute
had already received more than it haC
bargained for, it was out of sight. The
splendid horns of the ram were secured
by the hunter as trophy.
