Leavenworth Wants Gamblers to Be
Quiet During Y. M. C. A. Meeting.

Leavenworth, Kas., Dec. 4.-The gam
bling establishments on Delaware street
moved from the first to the second floors
of the buildings Monday, but moved
down again yesterday. The city mar
shall ordered them off the main floors
of buildings few days ago, but yester-
day petition was presented to the act
ing mayor, Mr.. -BauseFnan. signed by
several councilmen, requesting that the
gamblers be allowed to do business on
the ground floor until December IA, and
he compiled. with the request. There is
much dissatisfaction among church
members over the action of Mr.. Bauser>
man. 1t was hoped that ground floor
gambling places would not be permitted
while the state Y. M. c. A. convention
was in the city. ~
Hundreds of Kansas ministers and
young men will DE in Leavenworth this
week. and there was strong demand
that these gambling places be placed in
the background for a few days at least.
1t is said that the resolution adopted by
the council to fine gambling places 5000
month will not be enforced until after
the middle of the month.

1.-THE Honorable John Grigsby." the
play by Charles Klein in which Mr.
James Neill will be seen in this city
Friday evening at the Crawford Thea
ter, is regarded as an uncommonly clev-
er comedy. Its first act holds out all
sorts of promises of good scenes, and IN
the second act these scenes are realized
Mr.. Neill brings this act to a close with
fine scene of well-bridled passion.
There are some other very clever and
entertaining scenes in the paly and the
success of this play has been assured.
The play was originally written for Sol
Smith Russell. an actor whose art was
confined to plaintive and quiet effects
and those who ever saw James NELL IN
"A Bachelors Romance" will realize
how well he portrays Hon John Grigs-
by" OF Mr.. Neils personal success
there can be no question He is an ac-
tor of power and considerable d1stinc-
ton. He has stepped into the favor OF
his audience in this city before. The
period of the play, 1S49. offers capital
chance for quaint costume effects and
the company is well known to be re-
markably we'll drilled. Even as the play
stands at present Mr.. Neil stances u

Although this section has three
copper smelters, neither of them is
in the right locality nor of the right
construction to do custom work, and
smelter of this nature is what is
needed. There are dozens of small
but rich copper streaks in thu hills
adjacent to this camp which the
owners could work if there was a
little custom smelter close by to re-
duce the ore. There are some very
promising copper lodges in this dis.
trict, but they are owned by men
who are not able to develop them.
The ore is generally rich near the
surface and easily mined, and if a
little Vulcan Smelter was located
close by the owners of claims could
turn their ore into money, which
would enable them to continue de.
velopment work on their claims. In
this way the country would be pref.
ty Thoroughly prospected, and in
all probability some valuable mines
opened up. There is slump in the
price of copper just now and copper
mines are inactive. This condition
of affairs will probably not last any
great length of time.
