Returned Prom DonnelIy.

l.. f.. Dunn and Ed Clifford nave return
ed from a prospecting trip to Donnelly
mountain and vicinity. They rave been
absent about a month, part of which
time was spent in prospecting in Granite
Creek range. They made a number of To-
cations. some of which are very promis-
ing. Messrs. Dunn and clifford are old
time, experienced miners and their opin-
ion of the much-discussed Donnelly
mountain discovery can be counted on
as being correct. They do not think much
of it. The original discovery claim is
the only one In the camp In which there
is any showing of ore and in it there is
nothing so far to indicate a permanent
ledge. The ore is rich enough. but the
pocket may be exhausted at any time.
There are only a few men at work in the
camp, no ore having been found in any
but the claim mentioned. Some work
is being done on the claim purchased by
F. +. Baker and other Lovelock parties.
but there is no ore in sight so far.

Republican Convention.

There is a great air of mystery per-
vading the local Republican camp. None
of their candidates for county offices
have yet come out OF hiding and even
the time OF meeting OF the county con-
vention is not a matter of public knowl-
edge. The convention was set for today
and a number of delegates have strag-
gled In from outside places, but 1t seems
that those who are managing the g, o. p.
machine in this county have altered
their plans and decided to postpone the
convention until after that to be held by

will hold their conventional such a star

Tonlght's Performance.

1.-THE Convict's Daughter" which will
pc presented at Armory hall tonight does
not belong to the out-of-date common
place melodramas. j.. A. Fraser Jr.. the
author, has written an entirely original,
up-to-date play that contains all the ele-
ments of successful productions. The
scenes are laid in the South and are life
like In ever detail. The characters are
oil distinctly drawn and represent va
rious types to be found In the sunny
cline. Weary Willie" who is conspicu-
Gus in the play, is a unique character.
He is an honest, noble-minded tramp
the tool of the villain. He finally be-
comes a rich man. The scenic features
represent the highest form of stage rea-
ism.
Seats for tonight's performance are on
sale at the Eagle Drug Store.

The Kickapoos Capture the East.

The K~ickapoos. who gave such enjoy
winter nave been making a great success
in the East this summer in the big cities
and watering places.
Mr.. Bigelow's new illustrated lecture
on the wonders of Yellowstone Park"
and "Mokii Land" are very interesting
and instructive. Their audiences nave
gone into raptures over the magnificent
views and graphic descriptions of the
points of interest in this wonderland of
nature His descriptions of the weird
ceremonies of the Mokii Indians and
snake dance are interesting and the pic
lures of these scenes are remarkable.
After leaving Nevada last June, Mr..
Bigelow spent some time in the Yellow
stone Park preparing his lecture and
having pictures taken of the most no.
table points under his own supervision.
He also made a trip to the land of the
Mokii Indians, where he saw the famous
snake dance which has made this tribe
famous the world over.
The Kickapoos will fill a short engage
ment here next month, and besides Mr..
Bigelow they will be accompanied by the
| Endors, whose ability to entertain and
refined manners made them hosts of
friends here.

THF committee on statehood made
the long expected report to the Sen
ate Wednesday. The report discusses
the matter Of population, aud suggests
that each new state should have a
population equal to the average pop
ulation OF all the states, which would
be about GOO, 900. The report admits
that New Mexico has sufficient popu-
lation 10 be entitled to a congressman.
but says Arizona has not. The report
says that practically all the courts Of
justices of the peace are conducted In
Spanish, in New Mexico, and that
Spanish is used entirely too much;

children use the Spanish tongue

The statehood aght is the hottest
thing that has been on 10 Congress for
a long time. BY a majority of one 10
the committee on territories the ad-
mission OF New Mexico and Arizona
is opposed, the opposers all being re.
publlcans. The democrats 90 the
committee and one republican, Sena-
tor Quay, OF Pennsylvania, favor the
omnibus bill. 1t is said that all the
democrats 10 the senate, and some
twelve or fifteen republicans will vote
for the omnibus bill, and that it will
become a law. A list Of the republic
cans who favor this bill has not been
printed, but 1t is said that Senator
Quay is followed by Penrose Of Penn
%sylvania, Platt of New York, Burrows
OF Michigan, aud Elkins, of West
Virginia. The opposition to the ter
titories is entirely political. The re-
publicans 10 the senate are opposed TO
giving auy more power to the Rocky
Mountain section. The fact that the
last two republican national platforms
favored the admission Of the terrific.
ties has no weight with many Of the
republican senators. AS a matter OF
politics il a republican senator repudl.
ates a national platform why should
he object to another senator disagree
ing with him over some other ques'
tions, like reciprosity with Cuba.

those favoring, have equal rights IL

republicans. Large delegations from
