AMONG THE PLAYERS

Mans Enemy" that viyidly realistic
and thrilling drama, which comes to
the Opera House next Tuesday night,
bids fair to become one of the most
memorable events Of the dramatic sea-
son. Il will be given with new and
beautiful scenery, intricate and novel
mechanical effects, and a highly effi-
clent cast, including Miss Dorothy
}ossmore. The STORY is full OF power
the plot well drawn, the characters are
natural, and the scenes laid in pic
turesque places
The comedian, Smith O'Brien, Will
be seen at the Opera House on Febru-
ary 13, in his new play by Con. T.
Murphy. The Game Keeper" The
play is fascinating Irish drama Of the
romantic type, and a wealth Of beauti-
full scenery is used in the production.
Mr.. OBrien, who is a noted singer,
pleases immensely in his ballads, "The
Green Above the Red" When You
Were Sweet Sixteen" !" "The Holy City
and other songs. The latter is sung
in the pretty chapel scene. In THE
Game Keeper there are pretty love
scenes, thrilling climaxes, a rapid fire
OF ready Irish wit, and plenty of gool
music.

A vermont Treasure Trove.

An Eastern paper chronicles the
recovery, a short time ago OF 10000
sovere;gns from an English slooP
that had been lying since l777 at the
bottom of East bay, Lake Champlain
Tt appears that the treasure was sent
from Quebec for use in paying Gen.
Burgoynes troops. and the vessel
bearing it was scuttled by her cap
tain when he was attacked by a SUI
D ,1ior force of Yankee soldiers in re-
treat after che reverse of Hubbard
town. The gold was recovered
through the efforts Of one George b.
West. a civil engineer, who turned
aside the water, excavated the wreck
and blew open the hull with dynamite
The sovereigns we're found in an
iron chest, quite unharmed by their
long submersion, and are claimed by
the state of Vermont as trea sure
trove.
To student of history this dis
covery suggests many interesting re-
miniscences and speculations as to
what might have been. It turned out
that Gen. Burgoyne, on his march
southwark for the invasion OF the
colonies, became short of supplies,
and his army was ultimately swal-
lowed up by the wilderness or fell in
to the hands of the patriots. lie
never received the $4,000 in gold
dust sent for his use. Had he done
so, there is reason to believe that his
army would have been better pro-
vided, as gold was as potent then as
now, and potent even with the saw
ages. Ten thousand sovereigns was
a large sum ia those days. Had Gen.
Burgoyne received it, the timely aid
might possibly have made the diff
ference between the success and
failure Of his campaign, and the
course of history might have been
changed. Did not the hand of Pro-
violence guide that little band of
American soldiers, retreating from a
reverse, who stumbled upon the
treasure ship and compelled it's scut-
ting and Amendment? For nearly a
century and a quarter it lay there,
and now its secret is revealed.
incidentally the recovery of this
treasure removes a stain upon the
character Of Capt. johnson, the COM
mander of the old sloop, who was ac-
cused in his day Of having removed
and appropriated the treasure before
he sank the craft. The poor man
died without being able to. clear his
but if he has defendants
they must rejoice at the erasure of
the blot from the family escutcheon.

IMMIGRATION statistics disclose the
fact that during the past few years
there has been large decrease in the
number of immigrants coming from
the countries Of northern Europe,
Great Britain, Scandinavia and Ger
many, and correspondinglY. large
increase in the number coming from
the countries of Southern Europe and
Asia, Italy, Syria, Armenia and Be-
hemia, Not only are these latter in
ferior in race characteristic, but also
in personal characteristics, as % per
cent of all the immigrants that arrived
last year are found to have been il
literate. This condition Of future
citizens OF the republic shows that
much moro stringent immigration
laws should be enacted.

PRESIDENT Roosevelt has taken a
most pr2iseworthy stand on appoint
ments. His rule is not that man
should be a partisan first and com
petent man second, as has been the
rule since the time of Andrew Jack
son, but that the first essential is that
a person shall be competent, and
craftsmanship shall be secondary con
sideration. He is carrying out the
policy in a sensible manner also, for
while he recently refused to appoint
a man nominated by the Republican
organization in Indiana, he still &C.
corGed to the organization the right
to make another nomination. When
it becomes the custom for appointiye
Offices to be given to men on account
of their ability, we may expect to soc

est in politics.

New York, Sept. 26-The tone CT to-
days stock market showed growing i'm
IToyelnent over that of yesterday. There
was considerable evidence of realizing
still, which persisted after opening dip
and showed a tendency to rccur from time
to time, but support was forthcoming on
every decline and before the day ended
the bears were generally disposed to COW
or their short lines, causing practically a
complete recovery of all losses. Not a few
stocks showed decided net gains, includ-
ing Amalgamatcd Copper, Anaconda
Mining, the Vanderbilts, Pennsylvania,
baltimore and Ohio. st. Paul Chicago,
Great Western, Manhattan and Peoples
Gas. The opening losses were due to the
the demoralizing effect upon Copper min
ing shares in the foreign markets of the
break in Amalgamated. Rio tintos were
offered off over three points in Paris
when TIE stock market opened here. while
the copper stocks in London had made a
further slump. London had poured out
stocks freely upon the New York mar
ket in liquidation, making the opening
active and weak. 1t became evident
very quickly that support was to be ac-
corded to Amalgamated Copper and Ana
corda. Only 700 shares of the former and
600 of the latter sold at II below last
nights closing. All subsequent transac-
tions were at or above last nights level.
Both stocks fuctuated frequently during
the day, but the large short interest
showed itself nervous over the rally az
ter so extensive a decline and with all
the bad news, so far as known already
published. The active demand from the
shorts caused copper to recover more
than yesterdays loss and the stock closed
only rs below the best. Anaconda is Is
higher for the day. The relief to senti-
mcnt afforded by the recovery in Anal
gamated oyershadowed all other consid-
erations. The severe liquidation in some
of the railroad stocks which was a feat
urs yesterday. was not in evidence, but
fears felt Of unfavorable developments in

were relieved. The selling was explained
as being due to liquidation by bull pools

weak English cables and to selling pres

after the call the market here turned
firm and worked steadily upward during
the rest of the session with slight re-
ami fitful buying for Southern and COM
mission accounts. Whereas the cable
news and encouraging weather accounts
from nearly all parts of the belt gave
the bears reasons to anticipate further
declines here today, phenomenally light
receipts, bad crop reports, light New
York stock and increased demand from
spinners spurred the bulls on to support
the market every time it showed the least
steady with prices four to eleven points
