From Sire to Son.

That Mr.. Milton Mobiles is a man OF
more than ordinary versatile talents has
long been conceded For several years
he has enjoyed popularity in eccentric
comedy dramas OF his own writing, and
has shown a disposition to improve the
quality of the work, both as pl layer and
writer. He has reached a plane in his
last play, From Sire to Son." that must
entitle him to more respect than many
Of his casual critics have seen fit to &C.
cord him in the past. The play is not
only the best work Of the author, but it
is work of a quality 10 indicate yet greater
possibilities with this particularly am
bilious dramatist. Mr.. Mobiles is a clever
man and thoroughly experienced actor,
and what effects and incidents are 10
themselves absurd have been given in =
genIouSiy logical and consistent SEEM
ing. The play is very Skilfully construct
ed, and in the treatment there Is an air
OF probability given to the most incred :
IDLE conditions and combination OF events
Moreover, the story Is interesting, has
novelty, and is relieved by an agreeable
sort OF comedy that arises naturally and
easily out Of the scenes and as 4 cOgn ate
part OF the whole Nothing is deliberate
ly dragged In for the mere purpose of
providing comic episode. At the Grand

A Mining Opportunity Missed.

speaking OF gold excitements,
said George w. Beal in the presence
of little social gathering in West
Park street few evenings since, "re-
minds ne of . chance l once had to
purchase a placer claim in Confederate
gulch. The men who owned the bar
offered it to me for $400 cash and were
anxious to sell 1T that figure, but
hesitated. Finally I told them I would
have an expert examine and test the
ground and if it was what they repre-.
sented it to be would purchase it.
This was satisfactory, and my expert
made the test and reported unfavora-
bly, upon it. That settled the deal,
and I went on my way in search of
other fields. About two months later
1returned to Confederate gulch and
found q six-mule team and q wagon
behind it containing two tons of gold
taken from Z portion of the bar those
mon wanted to sell me for $500. Tho
team was ready to- start for Fort Ben
ton with the gold and was surrounded
by thirty armed men, who were to
guard the metal on the way. After l
refused to purchase the ground tho
men concluded to work it themselves,
and from a space of 100 feet square
had taken the two tona of gold. I
have not seen the expert since them"
