STRIKE SETTLED.

The strike OF the Independence miners
at Cripple Creek has been settled again,
and the men went to work on Thursday
afternoon, the 3 o'clock shift. The exec
utive board Of tho Miners union of the
district, representing the Western Fed
Grafton OF Miners, met with Manager
Shipman last night and came to n def
mite agreement upon the questions at is-
sue. Besides the agreement it is given
out that the mine will hereafter employ
only union miners. This has not been
the case up to this time. The agreement
which was arrived at and which consti-
tutes the rule to be followed out at the
mine relative to the conduct OF the men
when they come of shift is this: All
underground men, shaft top men, cagers,
ore sorters and all trammers in and out
OF ore houses shall, when going on or
coming Off shifts, change down to their
underwear, wearing only nm undershirt
drawers, low shoes and stockings, and
pass from one room 10 change house to
the other under the observation OF the
watchman, and il any man is suspected
OF having gold concealed upon his per-
son, he may be halted by the watchman
and permit search in the presence Of
the watchman by one Of his fellow work
men, whom he may select, or in other
manner prove his innocence, or he may
refuge and take his time.

ADDITIONAL MINING.

Job, Flagler & Belcher last week made
three carload shipment of smelling ore
from their 2:40 mine in Russell district,
two cars being from the upper level and
one from the lower level, the latter be-
ing taken out by leasers. The report
that the property had been sold for s40,-
600 is denied by the owners.
The Katie and Humboldt lodes in the
Bobtail hill belt of veins in Lake district
have been sold to the Carr Colorado
company by Hon. Frederick kruse, as
administrator OF the estate OF the late
Lafayette Barnett. The property is
desirable purchase for that company as
it can work the mine by means of the
main shaft of the Carr mine.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick, who is interested in
opening up the Powers mine in Russell
district, sent specimens Of energite ore
from 0-foot workings of that property
which was fair sample of the ore that
contains % per cent. copper to the ton.
Messrs. Chamberlain and Hacker, who
hold a lease of the Powers, are gradually
getting matters in shape for continu-
Gus output of energite ore.
Eldora Miner: Since the mill sus-
pended, the Enterprise mine has been
shipping to the Argo smelter at Den
yer. Eight loads % tons have gone
down this week. The ore is the average
grade taken from the 300 foot level and
runs from S35 to s42. Regular ship
ments will be made until the mill re-
sumes business again. Foreman Chas.
.5hahan is working twelve men on the
drift and two shifts are sinking the shaft
| 1t looks good to see two OF the great
mines of Eldora, the Enterprise and Re
venge, running almost continuous
stream of freight teams laden with ore
of high value to the markets of Denver
and Boulder.
A new air compressor was recent,
placed on the Tropic mine on Seator
mountain, Clear Creek county, where al
drills are now being used in develop
ments. This is the property owned a
one time by Diamond Joe Reynolds, ant
operated under the management OF tn
late General Gilbert. Ithas been larg
producer OF sllver-bearing ore.

A Good House ana First Class Per.
formance Last Night.

One of the old-time houses turned
out at the Orpheum last night and
thoroughly enjoyed the program 1t
was "nigger night" on the stage; a
regular coon carnival, with the colored
quartet, the coon songs of Miss Dixon
and Miss Beresford. and the closing
act of "Slmanthy's Birthday"
Antonio Pirri introduced some new
features, balancing a heavy cart wheel,
a kitchen table or light paper cornu-
copia with apparently equal ease. The
Richards produce the best sketch they
have yet presented. while Mrs. Beres-
ford and her two little picaninnies
scored a deserved success. The quar-
tet made hit, both from a musical
and comedy point Of view. Miss Dix
on and her living octave caught the
popular fancy and was obliged to sing
three songs before the audience seem
ed at all satiated with the novelty.
The animated song sheet is a clever
idea, accentuated by the singing and
cake-walklng of the artist.
The closing act, "Samanthy's Birth
day." showed some signs OF over eager
ness, but contained an unlimited
amount of laugh-making material with
all the regulation characters Of negro
life. The old man. the "pahson," the
fiddler. were all there with banjos,
chickens and razors galore.
Despite the three nights only" ar
rangement this weeks receipts should
loom up larger than those Of the past
month. The program is throughout
an excellent one well worth a visit to
see. hear and enjoy.

THE Topeka CAPT TAL MAN
he Talks About His Coming Expert
ment and Of Many Cog
nate Themes.

CHICAGO. Feb. 25.-During a con-
versation with Mr.. Charles NJ. Sheldon.
the famous author OF I'm His Steps, '
who is soon to try the experiment of
running the Topeka Daily Capital for
week as Jesus would, he talked free
ly of his coming experiment and Of his
work as a religious novelist and Cos
pei preacher.
The interview occurred in a sleeping
car on the Santa Fe Limited, Just as
Mr.. Sheldon was leaving Chicago for
his home in Topeka, Kan. He was ac-
companied by his wife, a vivacious
charming, brown-eyed woman, who has
doubtless invented many OF the scenes
and characters in his writings and in
spired many OF his unique schemes.
In appearance Mr.. Sheldon is a typi-
cal Celt. Ruddy of countenance, tall
large, blue-eyed. brown-haired, gentle
in manner. deliberate in speech.
After talking a few moments about
the wonderful success OF in His Steps
which, II is estimated, has been read
by 10000, 900 people, asked Mr.. Shell
don about the origin and evolution OF
the religious novel, OF which in His
Steps" is the most conspicuous exam
pie.
In reply, speaking slowly and care
fully, as Is his custom, Mr.. Sheldon
said: 1T would be difficult to tell
when and where this form of fiction
was born. II is doubtless as old as any
other kind Of story-telling-that Is, as
old as man. The folk tales of all prim-
tive people we're all more or less re-
ligious. Christ used the short relig-
ious story in the shape of the parable
as the chief vehicle for conveying his
ideas to the world. Why It has been
so little used for the advancing the
kingdom since the dawn of Christian
ity, II is hard TO explain. Sir Walter
Scott went so far as TO say that fiction
should have no moral mission-its
chief function was to amuse. not TO
instruct or inspire. But Scott was
wholly wrong.
Probably the most recent example
OF strictly religious fiction is found in
the writings OF Mrs. Alden CPansy)
She has done more than any other per-

JAMESON RAID DISCUSSED
Great 0utcry Raised by the Candi-

LONDON, Feb. 24.-Queen Victoria's
remarkable letter, addressed through
her private secretary to Lord Wolse-

soldiers to place their services once
more at the disposal of the crown for
the period of twelve months, is in no
sense OF the word unconstitutional, as
has been asserted by a number Of
newspapers on both sides of the At
lantic, for her private secretary ex-
pressly states in his letter to the COM
mander in chief that Her Majesty is
advised" which means that she is act
ing in the matter in accordance with
the recommendations OF her constitu-
tional advisers. namely, the Ministers
of the crown.
