ADJUSTMENTS.

MADAME MODJESKA TONIGHT.
The MOdjeska production of Mac
beth" comes to the Opera House to-
night. 1t appears that all the elabo-
rate scenic productions for the Mod
jeska repertoire consisting of five diff
ferent plays, were painted by one ar
tist. Thomas Moses, whose studio is at
the American Theatre, New York.
Manager John c. Fisher had all the
scenery painted and built at his own
theatre, in San Diego, Cal, which was
the starting point of the present tour.
It is not an easy matter to get an ar
tist of Thomas Moses standing to go
so far from his headquarters, but in
this instance the inducement was fame
rather than fortune. 1t is the usual
custom, of course, to divide up such
work between many, not less than
three or four artists being frequently
associated with one play. The distinc-
ton of carrying out so large a contract
and for such a famous organization
was, IL is said, the great inducement
in enlisting his services, and he appar-
emily made the most of his opportunity
by doing the best work Of his career.

PICTuRFS OF THE FIGHT.


The -Sharkey pictures of the
great fight will be given at the Opera
House on Monday afternoon and night
Nothing better in the way OF moving
pictures has ever been shown than the
reproduction of the recent Jeffries-
Sharkey twenty-five round battle at
the Coney Island Sporting Club. When
the immense length Of the film is con-
sidered, the operators may be said to
have surpassed all previous achieve
ments in mOtiOn-photOgraphy. The
fight, counting the introduction" and
the rests between rounds. lasted
through just 100 minutes and the cam
eras were in use internationally. Before
this series of pictures was tested and
found satisfactory. IL had been held
that good motion photographs could
not be obtained by artificial light Yet,
there is scarcely a defect in the long
reel of film on which has been record
ed a fistic battle that, il not great, is
memorable in much. The light and
shade throughout the exhibition is re-
markable. and serves to render the pic
lures as realistic as would seem possi-
Bile in the absence OF coloring At all
times the faces and figures OF the par
/ ticipants, of Referee Siler and of the
I sporting notables gathered about the
ring, are distinct and recognizable.

OTHER BUSINESS TRANSACTED
BY THE CONFERENCE.
Westminster. Md, April TN the
Maryland Annual Conference of the
Methodist Protestant Church yesterday
a resolution offered by Rev. j. l..
straughn was discussed giving the
president Of the conference authority
and power to appoint camp meeting
ministerial officers, and to keep a prop
er observance Of the Sabbath.
Rev. Dr. l.. w. Bates stated that
any man requested to preach at a camp
meeting should have no excuse short
of paralysis. and even in that event he
should be conducted there. The OBJ
scryance Of the Sabbath at camp meet
ings was the cue for Rev. DR.. J. j. Muir
ray who. in a Characteristic way stated
that he was opposed to holding camp
meeting primarily for financial pur-
poses and that nothing would justify
such a course. He was opposed TO the
sale Of anything whatever on the Sab.
bath Day. He spoke at length upon
the modernized camp meeting which
had become largely a means of the de
moralization of the communities in
which they were held, in contrast C
the great good done in formers years a
such gatherings.
Rev S. B. Sutherland spoke in favO
OF the resolution. He stated that thl
president should have discretonar.
power, and that if a minister failed &
comply with the request Of the presi
dent Of the conference to preach at
camp meeting he should be brought &
account before the succeeding annua
conference.
An amendment offered by Rev. J. /
Mills to the effect that a ministe

resolution was finally referred to com

Many thousands OF wells have been
sunk in this country, chiefly in the
search for petroleum or natural gas,
but most OF them are not over 900 TO
1000 feet deep. The greater part OF
the artesian wells in the country vary
from 200 to / 900 feet. The average
pdepth Of many thousands Of artesian
wells sunk for irrigation in the west
ern half of the country is 210 feet.
II is in our copper mining shafts on
Lake Superior that we beat the world
in this form Of excavation. Work on
the No. Tamarack shaft,on Houghton
Peninsula began in 1S95,and il will not
be completed till next year, when it is
expected il will be the deepest shaft in
the world, a distinction now held by
the Red Jacket vertical shaft OF the
Calumet and Hecla, less than a mile
away, which is down exactly 1900 feet
II will not be sunk to greater depth
for from this level the company can

in the depths to which a very few OF
our mining shafts have been sunk, but
there are two bOrings in Europe that
surpass our deepest completed work
with the drill. which is at Wheeling w.
Va. where the work was driven to a
depth of 1920 feet. The bore hole on
the Monongahela. above referred to, has
already been driven to a greater depth
than any other in this country, but il
il is sunk to the proposed depth Of g.
000 feet il will still be surpassed by the
two greatest European bOrings.
The two deepest bore holes in the
world were both sunk in Germany, at
government expense, to ascertain the
thickness of the coal measures, and also
whether other beds underlay those that
were known. The deeper of the two
and the greatest depth yet attained is
in the coal fields of Upper Silesia, al
the little mining town of ParuschO-
witt. where the diamond drill has
penetrated to the enormous depth of
$50 feet. The second greatest depth
is that at Schladebach, near Leipsic.
where the drill was sent down to 6,265
feet With the exception of the borings
on the Monongahela and Wheeling and
the deeper of the two wells sunk at st.
Louis all the drilled holes that have
reached an exceptionally great depth
are in Germany. Here is a list of the
deepest bore holes:
