About 925, 900 of the 1000, 0G0 shares Of

Clark is the trustee. This was the news
which reached The Spokesman-Review
Tuesday. a reporter called upon Patrick
Clark for confirmation of the report.
"The stock has been pooled for six
months" he said. "It is a strong pool,

in it. The stock is all endorsed over to
me as trustee"

This caves %, 600 shares upon the mar

a pool was being formed leaked out there
has been a strong demand for the stock,
particularly from Toronto and other east
ern points, where the fame of the great
Republic mine has brought the company's
shares into favor.
The Republic mill, whose work was so
badly hampered during the winter by the
extreme cold weather, is now working
steadily. and there is reason to believe
that it will enjoy a steady season of pros

Engineering and Mining Journal: A

WHY MISS
ADA REHAN WAS JEALOUS OF HER
GROWING POPULARITY.

The resignation Of Blanche Bates from
Augustin Days theatrical company will
give many persons the chance to say: L
told you So" says the New York un. A
short career for Miss Bates on that stage
was predicted by them on the opening
night of THE Great Ruby; or, The Kiss
of Blood She was called before the cur
tain four times after her best scene, and
the applause was enthusiastic. That
would have been enough to base the be-
lief on. But there was a second ana
bigger reason why her stay would be
brief. The curtain later fell in silence
on what should have been an impressive
climax for Ada Rehan, and was lifted a
single time after the ushers had melted
a mild demonstration of personal regard
for that favorite. 1t has never been GUS
tomary to nave at Days any other
actress of dramatic strength than MISS
Rehan. The roles secondary in serious
Importance have been played by charm
ing but weak young women. AS soon as
rivalry began, as in the case of Maxine
Elliott, it was removed. In the Sensa-
tional melodrama from Drury Lane, with
the singularly felicitous title or subtitle
of THE Kiss of Blood is a Russian adj
ventures, who has an honest love affa1r,
though she is a thief, and who is the only
female character to figure in the herolcs
Of the play. Miss Bates was assigned to
IL. Sne nau COme from tdlllOIIld, anu
was unknown here. She proved to be
handsome, fiery, forceful and very tai
ented. She was a revelation to the first
audience, and it was disposed to go wild
over her. Maybe it would have been bet
ter for Miss Rehan if the part had been
| given to her. Perhaps she had disliked
| to enact a wicked woman. Anyway, she
had chosen instead to appear as a vain,
frivolous, but clean and cheerful wife OF
a london tradesman. This had been
written as an eccentric character, and at
the Drury Lane it had been played with
irresistible drollery by Mrs. John Wood.
But Miss Rehan had 40 mine to look
i grotesque, and as to low comedy 1t is
clear out of her line. She was as hand
some as she could be in modish toilets,
and she showed no gaucheries to indicate
sudden wealth without social culture. In
a serio-comic scene of somnambulism,
where Mrs. Wood had been a fright in
curl papers and a funny nightgown, Miss
Rehan sacrificed nothing to the comic re-
quirements. She was as digniteG and
stately as any Lady Macbeth. For those
reasons the sleep-walking episode, when
had been very bic in London, count
ed for nothing here, and at its end the
actress had good reason to know that it
had failed with the audience. 1T was
then that experts foretold the WithdraWal
of the California actress. She appeared
at Days only one more night. She mac
not found Days theater comfortable.

PRINCESS MAUD.

After many months work the ledge in
the Princess Maud in the Republic camp
was struck Tuesday. The news is of con-
siderable interest to Butte holders OF
stock in the property. The CORRESPONDENT
of the Spokane Review sends the follow
ing under date of February ri:
THE Princess Maud ledge was encoun-
tered this morning in the tunnel, and the
quartz has been entered for a distance
of three feet, with the farther wall not
in sight. This strike is at a depth of 234
feet below the surface and at a point
about midway between the two shafts
upon the property.
cat this time but two assays have been
made on the quartz at this point. The
first was from ore taken from the hang
ing wall at the point where the ledge was
encountered. 1t showed a value of $24.SO
per ton. The second sample came from
about two feet into the quartz and as
sayed $55.60 per ton. AS the ledge showed
fine values in both shafts these first tests
indicate that the Princess Maud ledge is
a most valuable one. However, it is best
to await the crossing of the ledge before
figuring upon the extent of the strike. 1T
is thought that the ledge will be crossed
by tomorrow morning.

BONDED THE EUREKA,

William A. Clark, the millionaire mine
owner of Montana who was ~recently
elected United States senator from that
state, has bonded the Eureka claim from
George Moody, L. z. Moody and w. H.
Bigham, the deal being made by L. D.
Lively, who represents Mr.. Clark. The
Eureka is situated on Belcher Mountain,
about IA miles southeast of Republic and
adjoining the Belcher on the south. The
only work done on the property is one as

showing. The lead is at least 10 feet wide,

$40 to $50 with a large per cent of copper.
The bond was given last Saturday. 1t is
for S25, 900, and runs till June Is. As soon
as the snow goes off a force of men will
be sent in and the lead thoroughly ex-
plotted. The owners exacted no cash pay-
