Berry, the genial manager of Corinne.
Matt is an old theatrical man, though
young in years and crime, and is known

There is now no doubt that the EN-

in the field for business Immediately
after the death of Col Fitzgerald there
was not little speculation as to the
future movements of this company. He
had laid out an immense amount of work
and had begun its execution with a vigor
which promised early completion and
prosperity for the camp. 1t was rumored
That his death would cause great delay
in the prosecution of the work il 1t did
not bring about entire abandonment
