1.-The Idols Eve )"

The Boston Lyric Opera com
pany, which will appear this even
ing, has been strengthened to such
an extent since last season that it
is better equipped for the present
alton of the list of comic operas in
its repertoire than ever before in
its history. Col Thompson has
added to his force several eminent
artists of the grand and comic OPP
era stage for the purpose of being
able to present the classic works
as well rs the comic. His inten-
ton is to give a varied repertoire
He has hit upon the rather unique
plan of grand and comic operas
combined. The comic operas are
all famous, expensive royal pro
ductions, in fact, they are the very
best selections that could have
been obtained, the mere mention
of tho list will be an assurance of
that fact, The IDOLS Eye, Frank
Daniels greatest production, which
will be presented here; The Fenc-
ing Master, made famous by Marie
Tempest; Wang, De Wolf Hop
per's excruciatingly funny crea-
tion. The Idols Eye, which will
be presented here, is the best in
the repertoire of the company.

Annual Reduction Sale
ANOTHER SMELTER
To be Erected at Some Point in
the Arkansas Valley.


The rumor that was current on
the streets this morning to the
effect that new smelter will be
built at some point in the Arkan-
sas valley seems to have founda-
ton. Reports Of this kind have
been ahoat for several months 1t
looks now as if A. E Reynolds of
Creede, Ouray and the Gunuisnn
country, is in New York perfecting
the organization of the company
and looking after other matters
connected with such deals as this.
1t is stated that he will return to
Denver about the 10th of this
month when more information will
be given on out.
1t is stated that company with
a capital stock of S5000,000 has
been incorporated for the purpose
of building the plant and carrying
on mining in connection with the
smelter This smelter, if the
prophets are correct, will be located
at Pueblo, Florence or at some
point in the valley of the Arkansas
so as to be within convenient
reach of large properties controlled
by Mr.. Reynolds at Creede, Ouray
and in the Gunnison country.
The Creede and Ouray proper
ties have been sending their ores
to Pueblo and Denver, but it is
now claimed that the ore output
of the properties is to be curtailed
pending the erection of the smelter
plant, Development is to be car
ried forward on an extensive scale
so that large quantities of ore will
be available as soon as the plant
is ready to receive the ore
1t is intimated that Mr. Reynolds
has not been satisfied with rates
charged by the trust for treatment
of Creede ores and on that ac-
count he decided numb ber of
months ago to become entirely in
dependent of outside concerns and
erect his own smelter.
ID. III. Moffat is said to be
closely identified with Mr.. Rey-
nolds in this new undertaking
The two mining men have been
successful in remarkable degree
in their Creed mines and it is
pointed out that Mr. Moffat seems
favorably inclinee at this time to
the smelling industry, as he is
financially interested in the Rocky
Mountain smelter, recently started
at Florence.
The proposed new smelter, and
especially the prominent gentle
men identified with it, is creating
II wide interest among mining men
who claim to be acquainted with
facts connected with the enterprise
not given to the public. In their
opinion, the Reynolds smelter will
be thorn in the side of the trust.
Although it has not been deter
mined Just at what point in the
valley it will be located, still the
people of Florence tave every
reason to believe that it will be
| built here as the town is in the
heart of the Fremont county coal
fields, has unexcelled water facili-
ties aud locations that cannot be

AN OBJECT LESSON.

The Pueblo Chieftain, under the
startling caption, "a Crisis for
Pueblo takes Florence and her
enterprise as an object lesson to
the people of Pueblo, in lengthy
editorial, of which the following
is the first paragraph:
"It may startle some Pueblo
people to learn that plan to
found steel works is now the talk
of Florence. There is nothing too
audacious for the get-there people
of that town. Their Imagination
goes out to everything that is in
the range of possibility for Flor
ence, though of course it seems
natural to.suppose, in the case of
steel manufacture, that if an enter
prise of that kind il on foot it
could be traced up to the former
manager of the Pueblo steel works
now located there"
After handing this bouquet to
fair Florence, the Pueblo man pro-
ceeds to Insinuate that Pueblo is
naturally much more advantage
ously situated than Is Florence for
big institutions, and then he wades
in and lam basis certain classes of
her people in this language:
Some people who are here act
as if they had as much money as
they wanted and did not particu-
larly care for further possessions
to the extent of disturbing their
routine.
@"Some others seem almost afraid
that if there should be an indus
trial movement sufficient to attract
attention it might bring persons of
energy and of means who would
compete with them in their bust
ness or their position"
OF course, every city has to con-
tend with these classes. Florence
has her citizens who are apathetic
and inactive. But while they are
not aggressive they do not oppose,
hence are not as dangerous to the
welfare OF the city as are those
narrow, unpatriotic, sufficient
people who oppose any movement
toward advancement out of fear
that more energetic competition
might be invited This latter class
stand in the way of everything that
makes for progress, because they
can see no farther than the four
walls of their respective places of
business. They are selfish, hide
bound, unprogressive, sma ll-souled
men, whose influence on commu-
nifty is like that of baruacles on a
ship But Florence has in it
: enough enterprise, push, agrees
iveness, stick -to-it-iveness, or what
ever it may be called, to ride ma
jestically over these obstacles, wit h
the result that she is booming;
that she is acquiring one big in
dustry after another, and today
there is no better city in the state
than Florence.

Discord in the Convention.

Philsdelphis, June 12.-The Southern
Industrial Convention has caused its
public spirited promoters something Of
q shock.
Ia spite Of the high sounding plati-
tudes indulged 10 by both sides in their
oratoricai handshaking yesterday, the
dominant note at the opening OF todsy's
session was one of discord
The first trouble developed at last
evenings session when Robert CO 1deD,
OF this city, pike oa Popular educa-
ton, the power OF industrial progress. !"
Delegates took umbrage at this refer
ence to the poor, illiterate white women
of the South, whom, he stated, required
education 90 much, if not more than
the negro.
The threatened discussion was pre-
Vented by President Hargrove, who
said that Mr.. Ogden must have been
misio formed. At this mornings session,
however, Mr.. Hargrove, who nails from
Shreveport, La, and is editor Of the
New Orleans Picayune, got back at Mr..
Ogden in 9 speech which reflected
severely on Philadelphia.
"For the first time" he said, to the
forty persons present, IL feel misgivings
as to the success of this convention.
There was q good start made, but l
fear bad ending. We of the South
are familiar with New York, Baltimore
and Boston, but we know nothing Of
Philadelphia. Why we never see a
travelling man from Philadelphia 10 the
South. We know nothing Of your
goods. You make no attempt to get
our business. Send your commercial
agents down 30 that real commerce
may grown up. That would be better
than talking 30 much and doing moth
log. see few Philadelphians here this
morning. What new faces are in the
hall are new arrivals from the South"
