NATURAL COKE.
Prof. BIake's Description of the Great
 Wonder


 ican Institute of Mining Engineers in San Francisc very important paper was presented by Professor E T Dumble upOu the occurrence Of nat ural coke in the Santa Clara coaI field in Sonora. Mexico. This coke was discovered in the course of ex plorations made by and for the South. ern Pacific railroad company.
 This coal field lies in the neighbor hood of La Barranca, small town 95 miles northwest of the station known as Ortiz on the Sonora railway. The beds are exposed to view in the drainage basin Of Calera creek. q small stream which empties into the Yaqui river opposite Toniche. The old min. ing town of Tarabumari Is near to the center of the field.
 The coal is found in a series Uf in terbedded sands and clays in the up- per half of the sedimantary triassic rock formations, which are sometimes called the new red sandstone. These formations have dip or incliDation to the horizon of abcut thirty degrees and in snutherly direction The outcropping edges of the beds there. fore trend noriheasterly and sonth- westerly But this dip and direction of outcrop are often disturbed and changed by intruded igneou, rocks by which the beds have been lifted up and broken The beds have also been folded and faulted. The dip and di- rection of the coal beds have been modified and changed
 IL is to the nterjecton of the ig- neous or volcanic rocks we appear t0 owe the presence nf coke. Passing upward through the sedimentary beds these semi fluid. lava like rocks oc. casionally spread out between the bed. like great blankets, and being in parallel layers with the coal beds he coal was turned into coke by losing it's volatile portions. In this way the coke appears to have been formed fir in every instance close relationship of position has been noted between the intrusive rock "ln the two plincipal openings the igneous rock either form the reof, or is separated from the coke by very thin band of slate and in both slopes there are places where the coke holds included blocks of stringerS Of the intrusive rock. In another opening the igneous rock forms the floor, and it sometimes fills small crevices in the coke along the line of contact But But it is possible that the change of the coal into coke is not wholly due to igneous rock for one bed of coke has been found without there being apparently any igneous rock near it.
 The occurrence of coal and coke in the same bed has also been noted, In two cases the coke forms the upper bench and in the other the coal is on top as described by Prof Dumble.
 The discovery was made while searching for coal outcrops along Ca lera creek Fragments of coke were traced up to small bed at the mouth of El Tren. One bed, supposed t0 be coal only, opened out in a body Of three feet Of good coke, underlatn by two feet of anthracite coal. About half mile west body of coke was opened up which at the depth of thirty feet was eight feet thick and over ten feet at depth of one hundred and sa

A special cable despatch from

legged untriendly remarks-that.
Continental Powers should organ
ize for the economic defence against
the United States, "oi which the
pretensions and wealth are becom-

A special cable despatch from
Berlin Tuesday morning states
that when the reputed interview
reached the German capital it
created much establishment in
political circles. The Prince, in
the P.4yiser Plaks, expressed sur
prise and annoyance at the publ
cation.
The Prince writes that he had
merely a general talk, presumably
personal, with the writer for the
Li6Erte, and had no idea that he
was being interviewed" and
adds:-"I have certainly not said
any word which could be inter
preted in a sense unfriendlY for
the relations between Germany
and the United States, and / de
cline any responsibility for the
article" Prince Radziwill declares
that his sentiments toward this
county coincide with those re-

AT THE THEATRES.

At this time when interest is so general
and intense in all that pertains to matters
military, the theatre going body OF
WashinRtonians may congratulate itself
on the temperance one week beginning
Monday night next ofthat most accurate
and realistic OF all military dramas,
"Secret Service" at the New National
Theatre. The memory Of the unprece
dented enthusiasm aroused by this play
and ITS clever author, William Gillette.
during its local engagement last season,
is, however, enough to warrant the
nightly crowding OF the theatre again
during itsreturn engagement in this city
without any reference to the fact that il
is a war pla,. Nevertheless, its wsrlike
features will no doubt De looked upon
with an added zest Ia view Of recent
historical events. "Secret Service"
presents the story Of one evening in
Richmond during the civil war. Anil
such an EVENING" In the short space OF
three hours Mr. Gillette has crowded a
living, breathing, life like picture of the
distTesses, the alarm, the courage, the
dang er and the excitement which existed
in the capital Of the Coniederacy at the
time Of its besieging, The plot Of
"Secret Service" is neither involved nor
complex. In Il is portrayed the adven-
tures OF young Northern officer, "a secret
agent Of the United States, who has
succeeded in getting within the Conled-
crate lines. obtaining the confidence OF
his enemies, and by securing the control
OF telegraph station IS in a position
to do them the greatest damage
by the transmission OF a ialse dispatch.
He is deferred from the execution of his
plan by his love tor a young Southern
girl. With this simple story as theme,
Mr.. Gillette presents a series OF
situations and climaxes Of such sterling
quality and plausible realism that while
one watches the play. it is easy to forget
that the whole cause Of the excitement
is purely imaginary. No play with in
recent memory gets so far away from
theatricalism and approaches so near to
the thing itself as "Secret Service"
The cast gave such eminent satisfac.
ton Throughout last year, that it will be
a pleasure to discriminating theatre
goers to see all the familiar names again
this year when they cast their eyes upon
the programme. The company still
include, in addition to Mr.. Gillette,
himself. Campbell Collan, Walter
Thomas, Joseph Bremen, II. d. James,
M. L. Alsop, Chas. Crosby and Misses
Sara Perry, Hope Ross, Ida Waterman,
Alice Leigh and Dallas Tyler.

Woman In statuary Hail.

For the first time in the his. ory
OF the Republic the statue Of a
woman is to adorn the Capitol
building here. In what is called
"Statuary Hall each State is en-
titled to place two marble or
bronze statues Of the most distin-
guished citizens. The Illinois
Legislature has appropriated S9,-
900 for the purpose OF erecting a
statue ofFrances Willard, whose
name is household word the
Union over as temperance
worker. The bill has been signed
and IS now law.
There was some doubt as to
whether the statue Of a woman
could be placed in the hall. SEN
atOr Mason said: The law pro.
vides that the States may place in
the hall statues Of two distin-
guished persons. and the custodian
agrees that under the phraseology
the marble or bronz portrait Of this
noble woman may be placed
those OF the eminent sons
OF other States. No one will objeot.
There can be no objection, in my
opinion"
This is prohibition victory.

play will be admirably mounted. "When
| decided a few weeks ago to bring
Brown East for the balance OF the sea-
son, gave an order to a we'll known
scenic artist to get me up two entire
new sets for the piece. The first Of
these was an exterior scene, sho wing
the grounds Of Huneysuckle Lodge, in
which the first two scenes of the piece
take place. His models were beautiful
and the scenes when finished were the
prettiest things l ever saw" said Mr..
Rosenthal, "You could actually imagine
yourself in some quiet country spot
looking at a cozy little cottage over
which climbed roses and hOneysuckles
with beaut iful green meadow off in
the distance" The entire production
will be in keeping withtFA scenic effects.

Furnishing Arms 20 the F,IIpinos.
The German haters have also
charged Germany with furnish.
ing arms TO the FilIpinos. The
papers have published dispatches
saying that a German vessel with
arms had been caught. But it
turned out afterwards that it was
not a German but an American
vessel, and we have not heard any
thing about it since.
This reminds US OF what the
Republican Administration did in
1870 II in the French German war,
how it emptied our arsenals and
sold hundreds Of thousands Of
muskets, cannons, and ammuni-
tion to France, enabling the latter
to carry on a most bloody and
unnecessary war in which thou
