MUSIC AND DRAMA

MARO'S WONDERFUL HANDS.
The hands of Marc are at once the
hands Of d musician, painter and a ma
gician Ordinarily a lifetime is required
to perfect the manual training for any
one of these professions. Yet here is
pair of hands belonging to young man
whose paintings are favorably received
by connoisseurs; who plays every variety
of musical instrument with the finish of
a virtuoso and who excels as an expon-
ent of the art of necromancy. And what
hands they are. Not large nor small.
with square palm and long. slender fin
gers as sensitive and delicate in appear
ance as those of woman. and yet with
muscles and sinews of steel. Think for
moment of the schooling these hands
have had to enable them 10 perform
their manifold duties instantly, unerrinS-
ly, deftly in response to the Will of this
most versatile of artists. II is an aes-
thetic delight 10 watch his hands during
one of his soirees magique. Now manip
ulating a pack of cards with a skill that
seems to give life to each individual bit
of pasteboard; now recalling scenes of
sunny Spain with witching strains from
mandolin or bandura; now developing
seascape OF charming vigor and natural
ness on a sheet Of blank paper. and,
while one watches as in a dream, with
few magic touches Transforming it from
calm 10 storm, from sunlight 10 softest
moonlight.
All of this requires the most assiduous
practice, and having once brough, feat

this veritable wizard, continues regular
routine of exercise devised oy him 10 give
10 his hands the necessary fiexibility.

The General is prosecuting an active

has made the Pop sophistries look like

where he has since been engaged in
business. He has always had great
faith in Wichita, and while unable TO be
here in person, lent his most ardent
support in many ways. He has always
had the fondness for Wichita and the
west that man finds So hard to erad-

through the Eagle and has watched
with eager interest the gallant battle
Wichita has fought with adversely, and
now that she has conquered and un-
furled the banner of victory, Mr.. Figg
has returned to rejoice with the war

He said that he had read in an In
diana paper that the farmers were burn

have all heard of the big crops and the
tide OF emigration has turned to the
west and in his opinion the spring will

during the first month about $17,-
600, aud with a system of devel-
opment more thorough than any
other mine in this district, it is
property which, with proper
facilities, will rank high as a
producer of bullion. In 1875 the
first ore shipments netted $15,-
900; in 1875 twenty-three tons
shipped to Salt Lake City assay
ed $17, 900; in 1873 an arrastra
costing $40, 400 was erected.
Crushing two tons per day, it
had produced $32, 900 in 20 days,
at the close of the working seas
on. During the summer of each
succeeding year the arrastra has
been in operation, and in addition
has made r shipments to Gus
ter mill and other reduction
works. From reliable data, the
total production in bullion and
ore shipments has been $500, 900.
Two tunnels, of a total length of
1400 feet, follow the vein in from
the surface, giving the mine at
present a depth of 400 feet.
Careful sampling has revealed
thousands of tons of ore in place
worth at q low estimate over
$500, 900 in silver and gold. Ore
bins and dumps are full to over
flowing. All this dormant wealth
merely awaits the magic touch
of a mill to awaken to it's right

developed by a system of tun-
