gray haired heroines. Miss Rehan, of course, always wore a wig on the stage buE Ele3nora Dlse plays Camille without he slightest attempt to conceal the fact that since she was last here her hair has grown so gray as to give her scenes with Armand a slightly ma terial suggestion Signora Duse has carried naturalness on the stage fur ther than any oth5r actress ever did, but it's last point must be her refusal to act such a role with a wig, and her course in presenting the rather curious spectacle of young lover driven to such impassioned love making by a very obviously gray haired woman. Such cases have undoubtedly happened, but they are exceptional, so Signora Duse is probably entitled to more cred- it as the creator of a new fashion than as an observer of theatrical proprie- ties.
 Lilli LehmannS hair has been very nearly white for five years, and of course as a vegetarian she could no more be persuaded to dye it than she could be persuaded to wear tight stays, but she never encouraged the fashion of gray hair to the extent of appearing as
  The latest actress to be added to the grayhaired group has for years had nearly white hair. The secret was known only to herself. her maid and her hair-dresser though other persons must have suspected that Ellen Ter rvs hair was not still blonde with the yellow hue of nature. As a matter of fact it has been dyed for years, but it was only the other day that the En- glish actress made her first public ap- pearance after long vacation and as- tonished her admirers by appear ing with perfectly white hair and wearing spectacles. It was at benefit performance that she gave this first view of her nat ural locks to the public. She did look very lovely once, when in "The Dead Heart" she appeared as a sorrowing French aristocrat.
 Sarah Bernhardt has worn a wig al- ways for some years, and has never had to contemplate the inconvenience Of growing gray. Mrs. LeMoyne took time by the gray forelock as it were, when she became a star and the mature, if amorous, heroine of a drama in which sha was the mother of two sons. She amelorated to some extent the gray ness ot her locks, which when she was sen on the stage two years ago were uncompromisingly gray. Now the chestnut tones predominate and prob ably will for some seasons to come.

He has served in the capacity of deputy sheriff in his county for a long time. and as candidate for sheriff was defeated last Tuesday.
 Very little is known of McCourt- land. As a wild man. he terrorized the Mormon community of Penzance, a stone quarry camp near Holbrook, for several weeks. He was captured last Saturday by Deputy Sheriff Bargeman. In a lucid interval he said he was a native of Dublin, Ireland, where he had followed the vocation of bookkeep- CT. He talked incoherently of a trag- edy in which he was concerned before coming to Amarica. Before coming to Arizona, he was employed as a fisher man at Santa Monica. The officer was deeply grieved over the unfortunate af- fair.

GRAND OPERA AT FRISCO.
The Greatest Season on the Coasc is
 Promised

San Francisco. Nov. 12.-Every seat in the Grand Opera house was sold at an advanced price for the engagement of Grau's Metropolitan Opera com pany, which begins tonight, and from the point of view of the box office, at least, it promises to be the greatest season of opera ever given on the Pa cifc coast. The engagement has at traCted more than the usual amount of attention from the fact that the company of 250 artists, after arriving in New York from Europe. crossed the continent to begin the American sea- son in San Francisco. instead of the East, as has been MT. Graus custom heretofore.
 After three weeks in this city, the company returns to the East. playing brief engagements in Salt Lake City, Denver. Kansas City. Lincoln ard Minneapolis, going from the las named city direct to New York. where the winter season will open in the Met ropolitan Opera house on Dec. IS.

AMERICAN CIRCUS IN GERMANY.
Not a Workman Went to the Factories
 the Day it Came to Town.

Aix-la-Chapelle is a busy manufac turing town in Germany. close to the Belgian frontier, on little tributary Of the Mouse river. It has nearly i00,- 0OO inhabitants and its numerous ad- vantages make it a very busy and thriving city. Its sulphur and thermal springs originally made it's fortune, for Charlemagne was so pleased with them that he made the place the capital of his empire, and though the town hall now occupies the site of the marble pal ace he built, the chapel that ha erected and in which he was buried still exists as a part of the cathedral. Nearly S0, 900 visitors flock to Aix-la- Chapelle ev- springs are by no means the only source of its prosperity. It has large elements of wealth in its coal, lead and zinc mines, in it's metal working estab- liShments and in it's cloth mills and f;s manufactories of needles and pins. A large part of the people work in the mills.
 Late in September last the inhabi- ,tants had a, new sensation. It was an American circus, and curiosity was aroused to the highest pitch by such advertising as the people had never seen before. The interest in the bill board and in the circus itself when it entered the town With a great blare of trumpets was so great that Consul Rrundage thought it worth while to send q report to the state department about it.
 The art display on the billboards was a revelation to everybody. The thrill ling, marvellous scenes to be witness ed under the canvas were depicted in the most expansive and highly colOred style of American circus art. Nothing like the magnitude and stunning char acter of this bill posting had ever been seen in the town before, and the free show given on every dead wall was the talk of AiX-la- -Chappella for fort night before the circus arrived. ThOus- ands thrOnged around the circus gTounGs when the big wagons and tent hands arrived, and the way the rings were prepared and the tents erected caused even more astonishment than the spectacular billboards.
 In fact. by the time the canvas door flap was turned back and the ticket seller was ready for business everybody in the town had taken a hand in adver- Using the great American show. There was no work for the factory hands that day Not a workman went to the fac tories and every spindle in the town was idle. At every performance" writes Consul Brundage, ''the tent was full. The vague antipathy felt by the people fer the United States has been turned into respect and awe. The peo- pie now say: anything is possible to Americans D

MARCUS DAILY DEAD

 and Riches
It Followed Upon the Heels of the Decisive Victory of Bis Old Time Business and Political Opponent W. A. Clark.

N2w York, Nov 12.-Marcus Daly died this morning at Hotel Nethar- lands. He had been sick for some time of Bright's disease, complicated by heart trouble.

PATAGONIA MINES
Interesting Details From a Growing
 District.

At Patagonia few days ago I was surprised at the activity shown in mining in the adjoining districts of Harshaw and Salaro, writes Pr5f. w. P. Bake. of the Territorial University, in the Tucson C3fzen. Several prop critics are now being worked on their merits as actual producers, and the platforms at the railway station are crowded with sacks of ore waiting ship ment to Fl Paso.
 The principal shippers at the present are the HardshaH, bojn ore and con centrates; the Mowry, Wilson superin- tcn5eLi.. has a concentrating pant of four tables; the Pride of the West at Washington camp, the Westinghouse company, Emerson Gee, superintendent. is senGing forward buth ore and con- centrates; the Poole m1n1s, Crow su- perintendent, have made some small shipments, as also the Will and Jundy.
 The Worlds Fair mine, Frank Pow CTS owner, ships occasionally, accord ing to the needs of the owner. He draws from it as one does from a bank and then closes down until more money is needed.
 The Flux mfnc, six miles from Pata- g0n.a, Col Richardson owner, one of the oldest mines in that section, pro- dUces lead carbc-5te ore very desirable fer fiuXinS, and makes regular and laIS- shipments in bulk without sack ing.
 In the salero region. ten or twelve miles from Patagonia. there is renewed activity, and many of the elder claims are being reCpensd. Amongst those TOW producing the following may be mentioned: The Victor mine, w. E. Lloyd, agent, shirs a aigl grade argen- tiferCus galena. A similar ore is be- ing produced by the santa Rita Con solid4Ied Mining company. The Tenn poral Mining company, W. H. Bennett manager, is piiing ore ol the dumps prePag atory to shipping.
 The Bradford Copper, near Bloxton, is a regular shipper Of copper ore and is about to put cn q steam hoist and pump. Water mas been encountered below the 100 foot level and cannot be handed by an ordinary whim and bucket. This and one ctAer mine are the only ones in the Patagonia region wnere water is troublesome.
 It is reported that a recent strike of a fna large body of nearly solid galena was made in the Salero district, the width of the mass being nearly five feet. A good wagon road is to be opened from Patagonia to the Salero mines.
 At the Washington camp the new and very interesting process of mag nstic separation by ths Wetherell method is now in operation.
 An interesting and commendable fel- ture of the new own is a collection of the ores of the region arranged on shelves on the sidewalk in front of the store of the Patagonia Commercial company, where strangers can quickly learn of the div srs.ty, Ia ture and rich ness of the ores produced there.
 The cordial invitations extended to me by the mine managers to visit the different mines and to secure specimens for the university are highly appreci- ated.

SHOT AN INSANE MAN
An Unfortunate Affair at the Asylum
 Yesterday.

An unfortunate thing happened at the insane asylum early yesterday morning. when Deputy Sheriff H. J. Bargeman of Navajo county, shot and perhaps fatally wounded Robert Me Courtiand, a pat=nt whom he was bringing to the hospital. Bargeman had brought the patient down on the early morning train and taking a cab, drove to the hospital. When the of ficer and his charge alighted from the cab, McC!ourtland started to run away. The officer called to him 10 stop and al most at th=' same time drew his rev0l- yer and fired. It was the officers in tention to shoot into the ground be- hind the fugitive and he thinks he did so. but at any rate McCOurtland fell. When he was picked up and taken to the light it was thought that the wound was necessarily fatal. The ball had entered his back above his right hip. passed upward through his body and came out from the left brzast The nature of the wound supports the off, c5r's theory that the ball, striking the ground. had been dehected. He says it is possible that he might have fired prematurely in drawing his weapon down. but the course taken by the bullet in that case would show that Me Courtland must have been stopping as he ran.
 Soon after noon a telephone message was received from the asylum saying that McCourtland was not only still alive but was resting easily, and last night his condition was reported to be still more favorable for his recovery A warrant was sworn out for the Dep- uty sheriff's arrest early yesterday morning. Nobody believed him guilty of having intended to shoot McCourt-

GRAY HAIR IS IN FASHION
Actresses Who Show Slightly
 Maternal Air

It used to be said five years ago that middle age was having its innings at last and the innocent maid of IS had to give place to the experienced woman O 40. For a while the dramatists wrote plays about perslons of this age, chiefly because most of the popular ac- dresses and actors were too old to ap- pear as young men and young women. and the author who put Itwo or three mature characters in their books made it seem as if middle age Were really having a vogue. Men who had begun to lose their waists and women who were uncOmfortably tight in their stays, began to regard themselves as once more at the age of sentiment, says the New York Sun.
 But this fashion did not last long and the newest style in ages is not likely to last much longer. It is admitted even by the hair dressers, with all their anX- iety to dye as many heads as possible. that gray is no longer regarded with horror even by persons who have reached an age that entities them to it. Such people were always more apt to be worried over the change than per sons prematurely gray, who might be expected to mourn the premature loss of the characteristic of youth. Now people need give this sign of advanc- ing years no thought, for it has been decr5ed that gray hair is the fashion.
 Ada Rehan was the first woman in public life to allow her hair to turn gray without making the slightest at tempt to conceal what is commonly re- garded in a stage career as a sign that the end has come, or is at all events rear. Other actresses have since ac- customed the public to the idea of
