that MIR. Gibney is a young man. Mr..

his years. Miss Yantis has the ingenue
part and presents 1t with nicely of taste
and grace of bearing. Mr.. Halett has a
fine, manly part, one that requires care
and superior judgment both Of which

CAPTURING THE GAMBLERS.

Celestial With His Tan
Outfit.

Officers Fisher and Maley made a
successful raid on a faro game at Sec
ond and K streets, over the Bank Ex-
change last night.
The officers made sneak up the
stairs, escaping observation, and Fisher
managed to look on for several minutes
without being detected. They placed
John Bailey the dealer, under arrest
and captured the entire outfit. dealing
box, cases, etc, and $100 in money,
which is held in evidence. Bailey put
up 5000 as surety for his appearance
this morning and was allowed to go.
About the same time that Maley and
Fisher were making their capture. Off
Ger Higgins was seeking a game Of a
different sort In another part Of the
city. It has been believed for some time
that a tan game had been conducted on
1 street. between Third and Fourth,
but the vigilance of the Celestials had
heretofore proven an efficient safe
guard.
Higgins, however, managed to ap-
proaeh the suspicious quarters without
detection, and dived down into the
basement in time to meet the glass
door, which was slammed in his face.
But he was too spry and succeeded in
forcing an entrance, though his hand
was severely cut on the glass which
was broken out of the door.
Once inside and the sailing was easy.
The tan game was running in full blast
and SIT 90 was in the bank. All Lung
was behind the game, and he, together
with the outfit, including the money in
the bank, was taken to the Police Sta
ton, where he made a $500 cash deposit
for his appearance in court this morn

tWesque as the environment in which

Rocky Mountains. aTennessee's Pard-
neS'' is in four acts, and has been ac-
nowledged by competent critics 20 be
Scott Marbles masterpiece. The COM
edy hinges on the first wedding in
camp, the quaint sayings OF the local
Coroner, the rough love-mak1ng or one
Of the miners with his pretty ward, the
sweet singing of the Golden Nuggets
Quartet, and the funny doings OF
chronic liar and his aversion TO work,
his witty dialogues with his sour
spouse and his love Of whisky and his
seR-i1nportance. The pathetic parts
are the young Southern girls first in
timation OF her fathers death, the de-
ception of one Of the miners by an ad-
venturesS, and the tragic death Of her
paramour. The scenery and costumes
are in keeping with the play, which is
interpreted by an unusually competent
company that has given over oOO per-
formances of the play during the past
two successful tours in the large East
ern cities. A fine stage production is
therefore assured our theatergoerS. The
company is one of exceptional strength
if we are to believe the San Francisco
press which is more than commenda-
tory of it. One of the personal attrac-
tions is dainty little Miss Corcoran. now
playing her first adult part-she has
been ON the stage from babyhood, save
while in school, from which she has just
come. Critics are quite Of one mind in
saying that she promises to do the
American stage great credit. Charles
B. Hawkins is one of the leading men
Of the troupe, and Harry Mainhall an
other. The company is under the d.
rection of Arthur Aston, one of the
most experienced and painstaking of
managers. The advance sale of seats
has been large. The company does not
leave the city until tomorrow forenoon,
no abridgenent of performance need be
feared therefore.

American Money in Europe.

The American traveller has already be-
gun to shovel his money into Europe.
Three steamships which sailed from New
York OH the same day recently carried
1900 cabin passengers. Each passenger,
it is estimated, had allotted at least $1,000
to cover expenses of a jaunt in Europe,
and but 100 of the number We're bent
on pleasure only. AT the least estimate
these 1900 persons will spend $1,50O,0O0.
Every week at this time of the year sees
an equal number depart for Europe, so
that the Americans will leave many mill
lions in England and on the continent
during the present season. At the same
time, America is receiving from Europe
the poorest class of people, who are re-
ouired to have only $50 in their posses
sion to enter the country.-New York

FIRST-CLASS TRAVEL.

The American Found that it was a Good
Thing While Traversing Scotland.
All American who was travelling in
the hills of Scotland paid $40 for first
class ticket for a stage coach ride over
the mountains. Soon after the start he
noticed that a man who had a second
class ticket, which cost So, and several
who had third-class tickets, price $3.50,
were enjoying as good seats and APP
parently as many privileges as he was.
The American concluded that the can
ny Scotsmen had gotten the better of
him, but decided to hold his peace and
pay for the experience. When the end
of the journey was reached, at evening,
however, the traveller had changed his
mind; he felt he had had his moneys
worth. For every time that day when
the coach came to the foot of steep
hill the horses were stopped and the
driver called out: "First-class passengers
keep your seats; second-class passengers
get out and walk; third-class passengers
get out and pushv' And they all did
every time.-Harper's Round Table.

Bullets that Wear Out Guns.

There is one thing which users of the
new high-velocity rifles of .3O-caliber
have to consider, and that is the effect
of the copper or nickel jacket on the
grooves of the rifle. A bullet that leaves
the muzzle of rifle at velocity of
1000 feet a second is so wearing on the
rifing, especially near the muzzlc that
rifles is seriously impaired inside of 12.-
600 shots at the most. The lead bullets.
or those but slightly hardened with a
mixture of tin, do not wear the barrels
to the same extent, and the barrels last

Soldier Buried in Ohio Soil.
One of the red, white and blue stakes
of the g. A. r. is the only mark to
show where lies the body of Mary Ste
vens Jenkins in the village graveyard
of West Brookfeld, and it was decorated
yesterday by the veterans with honors
equal to those bestowed upon any other
of the grass-grown mounds. Mrs. Jenk-
ms, so far as is known at least, was the
only woman soldier whose body sleeps
in Ohio soil. At the breaking out of the
war she was a Pennsylvania schoolgirl,
and being infatuated with a young man
who had gone into the service, made up
her mind to follow him. She cut her
hair, put on mans clothes, and succeed
ed in passing the mastering officer. For
two years she marched by this young
man, shoudering her musket and per-
forming every duty required of men.
In some manner they were separated, but
she served out her time, was wounded in
several places, and came up to Mahoning
county, where she married Abraham
jenkins, who subsequently moved to his
present home near Massillon. She died
about fifteen years ago. The husband is
as much of a character as his wife. Be-
cause of the fancied resemblance he is
