From all appearances William II.
Crane is growing sad and -misanthropic.
In an interview lately he said: tine
plays which are today drawing the big
gest house are of a salacious type Of
drama, with suggestive situations built
about the life of some woman with a
past" Here is a case of one swallow
making spring, or one gray hair a CEN
tenarian. Where the genial Billy" got
this notion would be curious to learn.
Indeed. We were under the impression
that Billy We drawing the biggest sort
of houses with dear old David Ha-
rum" in which there is no lady with a
sunburnt past. When business is
awry, actors should not talk in this
sorry way. thus revealing a detected
and sagging box office. To return: The
plays. as far as is known. which are
drawing the biggest houses" to use
Billy's phrase. are Viola Allen in '"The
Eternal City" Richard Mansfield with
Julius Caesar" William Gillette in
Sherlock Holmes" and Mary Man
nering in '"The Stubbornness of Geral-
dine" These are the four top-notchers
this season. and vet in not one of these
plays is a crimson lady the heroine.
The salacious drama may attract for a
time in consequence of its appeal to the
purient and the impure. but like the
roue whom COlley Cibber tells US of,
they are too Hbidinous to last" The
seething c~osmopolitanism of the me-
tropolis may run mad yer a type de-
scribed by the comedian as "salaciOus
drama" but "out Of town this sort of
thing won't down. Mary Johnston's
Audrey" with Eleanor Robson in the
title role, is a late play to score
heavily. and yet in this drama there is
no blonde with a brunette reputation
Audrey is a sweet and beautiful love
ceeded il otherwise. Indeed. all the big
and permanent successes of the past
few seasons nave been of this type. The
carnal and 1echerous, even when from
the pen of a master. have been trans
fixed with the poisonous arrow Of
scorn-" The notion that a play to be
artistic must necessarily be nasty. has
been discarded. repudiated and cried
down as unworthy Of attention.
Frank Patterson of the Pittsburg Dis
patch writes: Roland 3. Molineux is
evidently serious in his dramatic as
pirations. II looked at first like a Joke,
but have found that w T Price, a
competent theatrical man and one OF
the best Stars of the stage. has been
tutoring the young man. Mr.. Price says
that Molineux has no intention Of trad
ing upon his nOtOriety. His aim. I un-
derstand, is to build up the Molineux
fortune, which has had somewhat of a
ticklish time in the labyrinth of court
procedure.
Mr.. Price asserts his confidence in
two OF the plays which Mr.. MolineuS
has written, and in addition lauds the
erstwhile prisoners dramatic ability
which is said to be of no mean degree

During the past eighteen months Bisbee has enjoyed a veritable build ing boom. The imposing brick build ings that are the subject of favor able comment from visitors, hay nearly all Teen constructed within the past two years and from the day of t.e erection of the Jacks & Chisholm building on upper Main s;resT, dates the brick era in Bisbeo. The Jacks & Chisholem three story brick was the first imposing brick structure to be erected in the city, but since that time we have the Johnson block, Let son block. Bank of Bisbee building, Copper Queen hotel, Copper Queen Gymnasium and Post office block. These magnificent buildings have all been erected within the past two years and have converted Bisbee from a camp appearance into that of city.
 The incoming year gives still great CT promise in building way. Among the new buildings promised for the near future may be mentioned the magnificent Presbyterian church build ing, the K. P. Hall, Miners and Mer- chants bank building, a brick store building on Main street and another brick building on the Muheim lot on O. K. street.
 The post office block of which a re- production is made on this page, is one of the imposing business blocks of this city and is a regular hive of in dustry. Jake Schmid, the owner is one of the substantial business men of the community and for years was master mechanic of the Copper Queen Go. On the first floor of this building is located the meat market of J. E. Mosher and the jewelry store of George Keenhold. The second floor is occupied by the post office under the efficient management of J. c. Me Cabe, and the grocery store ot Frank J. Graf. The third floor is divided into business offices where we find Dr. Hankin, dentist, O. J. Olmstead, Ar chitect; the Modern Copper Co.,; Prichard and Jones. Insurance; New Era Mining Go.

 This famous mining camp was dis
 covered in 1878 by Edward l.. Schieffe- lin. He was prospecting in 1877 in the Huachuca mountains, in the south western corner of Cochise county, and crossing the San Pedro river to the foothills of the Dragoon range he found and located some promising claims. In the spring of 1878 he de cided to return to the same district and as the Dragoon range was in the possession of ruthless Apaches. he was humorously advised by friends to take his tombstone along. Soon afterwards he discovered the rich veins of silver and gold ore that ere long became famous and in remembrances of his friends warning, Mir Schieffein nam ed the first claim he located. and after

 in the shape of a mining location monument built of boulders imbedded in cement,and prominently placed upon a rock strewn hill. This is the tomb
 stone and the last resting place on earth of Edward L. Schieffelin, whose last request before he died far away was that he be buried where he had first camped and where his grave could be seen from the camp that he had founded. In 1878 SchieNe!in was joined by his brotheT, Albert K. Schieffelin, and Richard Gird. A won derful development soon followed the discovery of rich veins of silver and gold ore and Tombstone became sec ond Comstock, just as the latter en tered it's decline.
