THE CHARMING PRISCILLA"
To Be Repeated at the Hyperion May

To Be Repeated at the Hyperion May l.
On the first of next month the Hy-
perion will be graced by a veritable
May day festival and Priscilla" is to
be Queen of the May. The pretty
opera, ever since it's brilliant presen-
tation in February, has been the sub
ject of delighted comment and the hope
that it might be repeated after Easter
has been on every lip.
Last week it was found that Mr. Ma
comber the director, would return from
the south in the week of April 26, and
arrangements were at once set on foot
to have him here, with the above re-
suit. 1t will be welcome news to hun
dreds, who, owing to the almost I'M
precedented sale of seats, could not at
tend the first performance, and to hun
dreds also who have expressed their de-
sire to witness it again. The same cast
and chorus will be in evidence, they
having kindly signified their willing
ness to repeat, and thus brilliant pre-
sentation is assured.
The proceeds will be devoted, as be-
fore, to the benefit of the Woman's Sea-
mems Friend society.
1t is thought tndI only one renearSal,
or possibly two, will be necessary this
time as the singers all declare they
remember their parts perfectly, and
Mr.. Macomber's skilfui baton will ac-
complish the rest. 1t is safe to say
that the dainty opera, with its wealth
of melody, its laughing, rollicking Choir
uses and pretty maids in trim caps
will be greeted by another immense
audience, as it certainly deserves to
be.

"THE PRISONER OF zENDA" TO-
NIGHT.
The production of "The Prisoner Of

cent. The palace interior Of the second
act, with it's distant view of gardens,
and lofty aqueduct; the Castle Of
Tarlenheim in the third act, and it's
glimpse of the stately ruin combining
the Prisoner of Zenda, are particularly
attractive and effective The costumes,

and entirely in keeping with the gem
eral excellence of the productioa. In
the cast are Isabel Irving, Howard
Gould, Maude Odell, Walter S. Hale,
Arthur Elliott, Robert f. McClannin,

public, and its incidents and scenes are
as refreshing to-day as when Uncle

the characters will be offered by the
same excellent cast that was seen here
last, with Archie Boyd as Joshua Whit
comb w. M. Cressy as Cy Prime

"When the question is popped to q
Cheyenne girl" says the the funny
man" in the Denver Post, ''she bushes
and trembles little and says she will
give the matter careful consideration.
The Laramie girl looks surprised and
sits with lips parted in astonishrnent
for five or six minutes, and then says it
came sooner than she expected, but it's
all right. A Douglas girl droops her
eyes resignedly, pats the carpet with a
neat boot and responds: The Lords
will be DONE The Rawlins girl grins
sweetly and says: Wouldn't that kill
your and then lays her head on his
shoulder to think it over. The Buffalo
girl looks him squarely in the face and
says: why cert. Do you reckon I've
been letting you hug me around here
for two months just for recreation ?"
The Custer girl is unlike the girls of
any of the towns above mentioned. She
don't trembls q little bit; don't blush
loud enough to be visible; don't plead
for an extension Of time to consider the
measure; don't show undue astonish-
ment or surprise; don't consent in ac-
cordance with the Lords will or any
body's else; don't utilize her fellows
shoulder as pillow don't say yes. or
no. but looks her admirer right square
in the eye for couple Of seconds, and
then. in the most direct and pointed
manner, interrogates him az to whether
he has struck ore on his claim that will
do TO shin.

Much space is devoted in this issue,
to the action of congress upon the fat
mans forestry order, which cannot fail
to interest and please our local readers
inasmnch as it not only effects a sus-
pension of the i'll advised order until
March 1898, but, there are valid reasons
to believe. virtually settles the matter
30 far as tho Black Hills is concerned.
With reference to the inspection of the
character Of the forestry reservations.
the work will begin with the reserva.
ton in the Black Hills, says the Pioneer
Times, which has been most actively
opposed. The secretary of the interior
has already instructed Prof Wolcott
director of the geological survey, to send
out parties without unnecessary delay,
beginning with the Hills. This is all
that can be wished. With suspension
of the obnoxious proclamation until
March !, 1898, and an immediate exam
ination and report accompanied by o
typographical map. showing the area
covered by timber, the character of the
whole country. including mines. towns,
railroads, farms, ETC., all may rest assur-
ed that no injustice will be done. 1t
can hardly be doubted that the matter
is as good as settled.

THE SIZE OF 1T.

1t never is, but always is to be. That's
about the size of 1t when you come to
figure up the situation here with refer
ence to the practical development of our
mineral resources. A. B. and G. have
come among us with loud and lofty
pretentions, with emphasized intentions
OF literally tearing up the firm set earth
in their vigorous efforts to solve the
much mooted, but still undetermined
problem as to the existence of valuable
mineral deposits down in the unexplor-
ed depth of Mother Earth below the
limit OF all past endeayors, but-what is
the sum of all past results in this dircc-
tion? Simply the exploration of the
ground to sufficient depth to determine
the length of the grass roots, in most
cases, with an occasional venture of q
few additional feet, but in no instance
to depth that would furnish satis-
factory solution Of the question. The
CHRONICLE has grown weary Of herald
ing favorable symptoms of unexp plored
wealth owned and controlled by men
who permit their holdings TO lie, year
after year unutilized, and who utterly
refuse all propositions tending to their
development that does not contemplate
the realization OF the price Of q mine for
prospect. In this connection it is
proper to state that, there are lew
exceptions, where the owners Of claims
have performed much labor upon their
claims. and have developed the same to
the full extent of their means, and il
should be understood that TO this class,
which is Insignificant in number, no
reference is made.
Ii has now become a plain and pal
pable proposition that cayoteing and
grass root mining will not result in the
accomplishment Of any thing in the
matter Of solving the local mining pro-
blem, and that greater depth than has
hitherto been attained is necessary tn
its definite determination. While the
CHRONICLE admits its weariness and dis
gust, resulting from a long continued
repitition Of favorable mentions of sur
face prospects, and is disposed to largely
ignore such mentions in the future, it
will be more than pleased to note the
Inauguration Of any enterprise that con-
templates the thorough development of
the mining resources Of this district,
which it believes, are unsurpassed in
any other section Of the Hills in their
valuable character, a proposition which
only awaits a more thorough develop.
ment Of our massive and evidently per-
manent ore bodies to determine. We
still indulge the fond hope, that some
time in the dim distant, notwithstsnd-
ing all the adverse influences that have
been brought to bear upon this district
through Misrepresentation from outside
parties, capital may be turned in this
direction for the thorough development
Of our mineral deposits, in which event
the cry Of the maligner will be stilled,
and the district eventually rise to a
position In the front rank of the gold
producing sections of the west.
