LIFE"

London Life" was an unquestionable
hit in New York last seacon, where it
the unanimous praise of the critics
and the hearty applause of the public,
It's first production in this city next
Thursday evening is awaited with inter-
est. A brief outline of the story sufices
to show that the drama is constructed
with skill by it's authors,
Martyr Field and Arthur Shirley, both
playwrights of recognized skill and
talent in London. There are five acts
to the development of the plot,
and the spectator is led on through the
various stirring scenes in a state of in
creased interest as the play progresses.
The incidents-not one of which is impos-
sible or sensational-are contriyed so
cleverly and with such tact tina the
audience is carried along in a fever of
excitement up to the last strong climax.
Throughout the play are scattered many
delightful episodes of comedy interest,
which necessarily afford just the tenn
porary relief wanted for the drama. One
Of the most effective scenes shows the
interior of a pawnbroker's shop, with the
many quaint types characteristic of the
social substratum of the British metrop-
oils. Another scene which is said to he
exceptionally fine from an artistic point
Of view shows that historic locality.
Fleet street; n still another example
of the scene painters art is found in a
graphic representation of that famous
fashionable street of T.ondon-Picadillv.

superior company of players, all of whom
We're specially chosen for their individual
roles.

COURT NOTES.

The precipe of dismissal in the con
demnation suit of the Montana Ore Pu:.
chasing company and the Johnston COM
against the Butte & Boston and Old
Colony Trust companies. which was filed
in the district our his morning, was
followed this afternoon by a motion to
dismiss. The motion was presented to
Judge Clancy, but there was a slight
difference between the wording of the
precipe and the motion n a short ar
gument resulted between the attorneys
for the respective sides. In the precipe
the words without prejudice" a been
omitted, but they appeared in the mo-
tion and the plaintiffs asked for leave
to amend by inserting the words with
out prejudice" in order that both docu-
ments would conform to the judgment.
Judge De Witt for the defendants OBJ
jected. He said: II think the matter of
judgment is purely a matter of law and
/ ask that the words without prejudice
be not inserted. l think it is a matter
that is settled by the statutes and does
not belong in court at ALL"
Judge Mediation insisted upon the in
s~ertion, and the court settled the con-
troversy by allowing the amendment to
be made.
And as the defendant in the suit had
already asked for a new trial Judge
Mediation told the court his side would
ask that the new trial motion be grant
ed, but this part of the business will be
heard later.

Boston Paper Looks Hopefully
Upon the Future.
SMALL HOLDERS OUT
Coppers Are Among the Best Bargains
on the Speculative Counter
Today's Market.

Editorially, the Boston Financial News
speaks thus hopefully of copper shares:
The fresh advance in copper shares just
developing has a ooh about it hat is
more substantial than many of the raj
lies that have come to this group of Sc
curities during the past few months. In
the first place it is to be remembered that
the most of the copper shares are now
down to an extremely low level; that
nearly all the small holders have long
since been shaken out; that the doubtful
properties have been for the most part
relegated to the back ground; and finally
that a large amount of dividend and in
terest money just now finding its way in
to the market naturally turns to the bet
ter class Of these securities for invest
ment. Another influence calculated to
favorably affect the copper shares, is the
fact that the visible supply Of copper
abroad is still showing a steady decrease.
At the present time, that supply is only
about 1900 tons above the lowest amount
shown during the yea 1899. And despite
the fact that domestic consumption has
eign demand, according to trustworthy
advices, continues very satisfactory and
the price of the material abroad is still
well maintained.

that the severe shaking progress that has
been encountered of late is o apparent

reasons for believing that even this will

at the last meeting of the city council.
The aldermen, who are not supposed to
be good judges of water, accompanied
the chemist in order to give an official
tone to the expedition.
Mr.. Easton will take a sample of the
water which, 1t is alleged, drains the Gem
etery, after which it runs into some of
the cisterns supplying Butte. A thor

ger Of another collapse such az that
which has just been suffered.
The News Bureau says: The London
Financial Times, commenting on the state
OF the copper trade, especially as 1t effects
the American market, remarks that the
Standard Oil clique now holds some $780,
600. 900 Of the SIS, zoo, 600 of the shares Gre
ated in the Amalgamated Copper COM
pany. 1t estimates the holdings OF the
same interest Of copper shares at $780,
0OO, 600 Of stock. 1t points out that the
increased production Of copper has taken
control of the market entirely out OF their
hands. It says that American banks are
beginning to throw copper shares upon
the market and that one bank alone holds
some $50, 900, 900. It adds that the Anal
gamated cannot float new capital till the
shares in the hands of the clique are di-
gested by the public, and considers that
what was virtually an attempt to corner
copper has proved a failure, and that IN
the event Of a crisis, the Amalgamated
shares will be the first collaterals to be
thrown out by the banks.

MOSQUITO Malaria,

The English doctors are pursuing
their prosecution of the speckled-
winged mosquito, anopheles, charged
with being the propagation of malaria.
and the London Times is laundering
against the culprit. The development
of the malarial parasite in the mosquito
and its injection into the human victim
make very interesting story, and the
Times thinks it fully explains the whole
mater. Possibly it does in some types
Of malaria, particularly in that of the
tropics But it does not explain the
chills and fever common to certain dis
tricts which may be acquired during the
winter when mosquitoes are not attend
ing to business. The source of this dis
ease is traced by some to drinking
water and by others to noxious vapors
from freshly turned soil. 1t appears
highly probable there is more than one
cause for malarial fever and that it is
of several distinct varieties, notwith-
standing the conclusions drawn by the
eminent English psychologists.

To Amuse the Sh Ell.

Many stories are told of the Shah of
Persia in connection with his last visit
to England. One of these tales, prob
ably more amusing than true, is that he
advised the Prince of Wales quietly to
make away with a certain extremely in
tiuential duke. as the latter was grow
ing too powerful to be safe.
But story which is vouched for is
the account of the Shah's visit to New
gate prison. While there he suddenly
requested to see an execution. He was
ccurteously informed that at the pres
ent moment there was no one under
sentence. The Shah swept away these
trifling objections with a wave of his
hand. Take one of my suite" said he.
Anyone will do" And he was woeful-
ly disappointed because the officials on
the spot declined to comply with his re-
quest.
The Shah had a magnificent collec-
ton of jewels, among them being an
emerald nearly as large as hens egg.
