"The Prisoner OF Zenda' will be the at
traction at Sweeney & Coombs opera house
on Monday. January 20, matinee and night,
and will be interpreted by 0. fine company,
under the management of MI. Daniei
Irohman of the New York Lyceum theater.
Although now in its fourth year this great
MAY has lost none of its popularity. The
reason for this is that 1t is an up-to- date
play. Most of the old romances are lad
in remote periods and are thereby en-
HANGED In picturesqueness OF costuming ana
the entertainments lent by distance rms
one has an Eighteenth century prologue, II
is true, but the play itself comes down TO
modern times and plants the TRADITIONAL
intrigue fairly upon the soil of modern Sc
curity.
The spirit OF d'Artagnan is infused into
the sluggish pulsations OF an 1881 Engiisn-
man. and the thrill of his adventure
strangely enough, is not defeated by the
occasional glimpse OF a bicycle suit.
THE plot and motive OF the novel and the
play are too well known to require an ex-
tended description. First played AT tne
New York Lyceum, where 1t was the great
success of the season. II had several years
of prosperity on the road. Mr. Howard
Gould. whose excellent performance OIL the
dual role Of Rassendyll and the King mas
added so much attractiveness to the play IN
INST seasons is still engaged for the lead
ing nosition In the company. when also

telligence regarding the discovery Of n
valuable gold and silver mine by DIR,

mine was discovered In the Denison and
Pacific railway surveys after considerable
prospecting and is located about seven
miles from the mine owned by General
Shafter OF Cuban fame, Lieutenant Bullis,
John Spencer and Seth Cooks estate OF
California.
Iii this mine the United States mint re-
ports Of last year showed that $523,o00 in
silver and $1,000 in gold hal bael taken
from 1t. This is one OF the finest mining
properties In the United STATES and las
been worked thirteeh years. This nine,
called the Shaftcr mine, Is located forty
five miles from Marta in the Chinati or
Blaclsbird mountains, and its mineral de-
posits are of pure milling ore, Consisting
of chlorides and carbonates of silver. In
DIR. Landegrens mine there Is said to be
$4,000 OF mineral ore now in sipht and
some assaying as high as $1,000 20 the ton
