Morrison in "Faust !"

Pope very truthfuliy said: "Truth
needs no flowers of Speech and to that
end the fact Of merely announcing that
Lewis Morrison will appear Tonight at
the Grand in his great creation of Me-
phisto in Faust" in more elaborate
production of Goethe's romance than
mas ever been witnessed heretofore Is
sufficient to assure the public of a per-
Torrance worthy of the author and ac-
tor, for Mr.. Morrison is always thor
ough in all he does and there is a bril-
nancy in his work which is distinctly

mawkish melodramatic sentmentality

obtained and held by the intellectually
OF a master mind and which has been
nodded and dramatzed by one who has
that ear mark of genius"-a creative
brain. Hence. the cause of the enor-
nous popularity of Faust as present.

ments away from Cuba and Porto Rico
before the quarantine goes into effect.
After that all soldiers coming north
will be obliged to remain in transports
after reaching the United States until
the health officers decide that there is
no danger of their developing yellow
fever and other contagious diseases.
This would be a great Inconvenience
and the department is bending every en-
ergy to move all the troops as soon as
possible. For this reason many of the
transports are being kept in commits
sion which should be laid up for much
needed repairs.
For the same reason the department
mas abandoned it's first intention in re-
gard to the Dixie, which has just been
transferred from the navy to the trans
port service. The first plan was to send
her to Manila, but now orders have
been given to hurry her to the south
with all possible dispatch. The orders
are for her to sail next Monday, March
20. Although the vessel has not yet ar
rived from the League island navy
yard, specifications and contracts are
already being prepared for the refitting
which will be necessary before she can
be useful as a transport.

Wildcat Mining Schemes.

Washington, March 15.-United States
Consul McCook writes from Dawson
City:
Investors should be careful of min
ing properties offered for sale, particu-
larry in some sections of Alaska. OF
the many who came here last spring
and summer, hundreds drifted down the
Yukon and located at Forty Mile Eagle
City and Star City. I am informed
there are many schemers there who get
up miners meetings, elect their own
recorder, jump claims already recorded,
get their man to give them receipts for
recording claims, issue prospectuses of
water rights, all apparently in con-
formity with the United States min
ing regulations. They have organized
companies, their scheme being to sell
their so-called rights to the public. No
one should buy anything until per-
fectly satisfied There will be any
number of valueless claims offered by
promoters"

John L. Carlson yesterday celebrated
