chant in Bond street, London, and he is
SO confident that he has discovered the
location of the buried mines that he has
entered into an agreement with the
Tgyptian government by which he agrees
not only to bear all the expense of his
explorations, but also to share the profits
of his trip. In view of this fact he is
promised protection by the government.
Mr.. Streeter, who claims to have made
this remarkable discovery, is a man of
nc little ability. Not only is he a promin-
ent figure in the commercial life of Lon
don, but he is an explorer and archeolo-
gist of repute and an author of consid-
cradle renoWr. One of his books. Pre-
cious Stones and Gems" is already in
its sixth edition and is regarded as one
of the few standard works in this field
of knowledge. Under these circumstances
it is not strange that commercial London
should have oeen willing to accept his
remarkable story without question.
According to the statement made by
MI. Streeter, the diamond merchant has
knoWn the location of these mines for
more than twenty years. Long ago he
had read of the famous Jebel Zebara
mines and of the rich finds they yielded
to the early Egyptians. He had also
studied every par. Of the story in which
there was any mention Of the gold and
Jewels that had been dug from the earth
to add to the wealth of Cleopatra. AT
last he became persuaded that such
mines had actually existed and that they
had been buried in order hat they might
be kept from the hands of the Romans
With this idea in view he went to Egypt
bent upon finding the mines that had
once made that country one Of the richest
nations in the world.
When he returned he said nothing
about his trip bu from time to time since
then he has paid mysterious visits to
Egypt and 1t has been known that he was
in diplomatic communication with the
government. Now that his secret Is out
1,e admits hat he was successful in find
ing the mines on the occasion of his first
trip, that they were within a stones
throw of one Of the largest of the ancient
Roman barracks and that he has kept
this secret all these years simply be-
cause he has been unable to make ad-
Nantageous arrangements with the gov

Romantic as such a project may seem
to those who have long regarded the
mines of Cleopatra as purely traditional,
a basis OF probability is given to the
scheme by the fact that it was Mr.. Street.

the Providence Opera House for three
nights commencing next Thursday with
Saturday matinee. To interest the aver
age American. 1t is described as brill
liant war spectacle, and at the same
time, the finest production of this popu-
lar war play ever given. The stirring
war scenes arouse the audiences as few
big gatherings are ever aroused. 1t is
said that at the first sight OF the Amer
lean flag as ii is seen falling backward
in the great retreat scene, the applause
starts and continues almost uninter-
ruptedly until the final big climax when
the whole company together with the
army of "supers appear on the stage
each waving "A small flag. while the or
chestra plays the National ode. Ii is an
inspiring sight made much more inn
pressive when the audience rises and
joins in the chorus. The cast is great
one. including Maurice Barrymore and

The curtain rises on a musical con-
ccption entitled a Winter carnival in
which "a number of Choruses are Wcll

ladies are seen In an exciting bicycle
race.
Pauline Mayhem opens the olio with
coon songs which she renders in life

she knows a thing or two about bag

one trick bicycle rider and that rs john
