III. I.-Unparalleled Program.
The predictions call for rain to-
day, but there will be no rain to-
night. The rain came down in
torrents yesterday afternoon and
evening in order that it might sim
ply rain itself dry as an accom-
mediation to all those interested in
the grand benefit of Wirth's circus
tonight for the Maternity Home
and Young Hawaiian Institute.
There is to be a grand and
glorious time at the circus tent to-
night, and even if no more tickets
are sold the work done yesterday
by Mrs. Cunha, Mrs. Noonan and
Mrs. G. G. Beckley, the committee
in charge of the Maternity Home
affairs in connection with the per-
Torrance, together with that of the
committee from the Y. H. l., gives
assurance of fine house.
The features by the circus would
be enough in themselves to keep
the audience entertained through
out the evening, but people will
have much more to look forward
to. The Hawiian Band, the Ka-
waihau Club and the Y. H. l. glee
club will be present-not only to
look on, but to furnish music which
many have had opportunity to en-
Joy on previous occasions.
Sylvester Kalama, of Hawaiian
fame, will be the Hawaiian clown,
and will introduce the "P. G. Vol
unteer" to the audience, as we'll as
other pleasing things.
The worthy objects for which the
performance will be given, aside
from the fact that the program will
be the best given in the city since
the advent of Wirth's circus, should
certainly send crowds to the tent
tonight.

IS 1t Not
A Fact

That you cannot purchase

which third-rate goods are
sold?
How temptingly the cheap
plated stuff is made up and
how fluently the dealer stuffs
you about it being JUST AS
GOOD.
How often you make the
sad mistake to take his bare
word for it, purchase some

a time you find that it was
not quite as good as his word,

LIFE RUINED BY OPIUM.
Terrible Degradation of Young Lady
of Good Family.
of Drug by Chinese-Brought
Before Police Court.

SEATTLE, Wash, Feb. IA
raid by the police at an early hour
this morning on a Washington
street opium smoking den revealed
the downfall. and degradation of a
beautiful girl who was found in the
act of smoking opium with a re-
pulsive looking Chinaman.
Emma Perkins is her name, her
father being a big contractor and
builder of Seattle. A distressing
scene followed the arrest and the
girl begged piteously that her
shame be not made public, for her
mothers sake, if for no other. But
her entreaties were coldly disre-
garded by the officers and she was
dragged away to prison,
Miss Perkins is rs years of age
and personally very attractive.
She is well educated, of good form
and figure, has luxuriant growth
of drak brown hair and her eyes
are large and lustrous.
According to a confession OBJ
tanned by the police she has been
in the habit of visiting the dive for
several months and admits that she
is almost hopelessly addicted to
the habit of opium smoking. It
appears that she and a neighbor
girl, whose name she steadfastly
refuses to divulge, having heard
Chinese servants talk so much
about the happiness and blissful
feeling found in the opium pipe,
were tempted to steal away from
home to a smoking place connected |
with a Chinese wash house. Their
visits became more frequest, culmi-
mating in this mornings exposure.
Miss Perkins was liberated today.
She claims her sister and compan-
on in wrong-doing is not now in
he city. A woman who lives in
he neighborhood of the Chinese
establishment observed the girls
visit to the place, and, believing it
% be her duty to do SO, informed
he police.

1t Is Not
Reasonable

To suppose that a dealer who
knows his business, who
knows values, as no novice
can know them, would
charge you for his knoWl-
edge. knowledge of goods
makes it easy for him to pur-
chase right; and to sell right.
We claim to carry the best

Observation-Disclosures PROCESS
To Work the Caresa Tailings in
South Pass. WyO.

c. Gervase Brown, the inventor and
patentee of the Brown chemical-elec-
trical process of ore reduction, return
ed Monday from South Pass, Wyo-
ming, where he has erected 40-ton
plant for the treatment of the tailings
OF the old Caresa mill
This old dump embraces about 1000
tons Of failings that average about 50
in gold TO the ton, $3.50 of which is
saved by this chemical-electrical pro-
cess. The ore Of the Caresa is rich in
gold, but contains so much arsenic and
antignony that it is hard to save on
the plates, and consequently the tall
ings are very rich. These have been
purchased by Brown, Cole and Yocum,
the consideration being $500, and as
the Brown system works very salts
factorily on this rebellious mineral, the
boys will make a ten strike before
they clean up the lot, after which the
plant will be moved to other failing pits
in the immediate vicinity.
Mr.. Browns visit to Salt Lake is for
the purpose of securing a dynamo of
100 candle power for the plant, as so
far the electricity for the treatment
of the tailings has been generated by
a hand battery.
The people of South Pass, according to
Mr.. Brown, are wild over the success
full test of his process, ard as re-
suit he is making arrangements to put
in several similar plants there, includ-
ing one for himself and Bob Myran. At
Rock Creek, two miles from South Pass,
he will build a mill for Fred Rose and
Charlie Swansey, in the erection OF
which he will utilize his old plant that
was formerly located near Silver City,
Tintic. This plant will cost these gen
tlemen $4,000, and after treating 1000
tons of ore, they will thereafter pay a
dollar a ton on every ton of ore mialed.
AT Rock Greek Messrs. Rose and
Swansey have an interest in a mine
that shows an eight-foot ledge of quartz
that carries 7 per cent copper and $1,000
in gold to the ton, and with cheap and
effective milling facilities, the mine will
prove TO be a bonanza.
At South Pass Messrs. Brown and
Yocum are the owners of a big body
of ore that carries from to s per cent
in bottle green tin; and paralleling the
ledge there is a 15-foot vein of mineral
that goes $3.50 in gold 10 the ton.
Mr.. Brown speaks very highly of the
South Pass country, and predicts that
in the near future a great deal of
profitable mining will be carried on
there.
