THE GALICE CONSOLIDATED
Additional Men to BE Set to Work
on Improvements.

The following statement has been
issued by the Galice Consolidated
Mines Co. in view of their recent ac-
quirement of 700 acres of additional
ground;
The acquisition of 100 acres of valu-
able adjacent placer mining ground
has been in contemplation for some
time, and in anticipation of the sue
cess of the gravel elevators now being
tested by the company, purchased
outright all the available ground from
the mouth of Galice Creek down
Rogue River for distance of three
quarters of mile.
Gamblers Bar. the greater part Of
which was owned by the company,
has been famous rendezvous for
busted prospectors in summer time as
good wages could always be made by
panning or with rocker. Nearly
every winter Rogue river runs over
this bar for a week or two so that
permanent improvements IN the way
of opening it up have never been
made.
We acquired this property before
the formation of Galice Consolidated,
and while it was of well-known rich
ness, we did not consider it feasible
to be opened by the regular hydraulic
method as bedrock race out tc
Rogue river would not drain il
properly or afford sufficient dump,
and it was not until the hydraulic
elevators were perfected within the
past few years that it was thought
practical to work these low river bars
Now it is feasible under the pressure
from our high bitches, which are bo
ing extended to this ground. to Sc
one giant piping directly up stee
tube Is to 80 inches in diameter t,
elevate this ground to height of D
feet or more with dump of the sam
height into Rogue River and thus d
away with the adverse feature o
drainage and dump. Hundreds o
atiidavits as to the richness -of th
ground are available, and we hav
personally and thoroughly prospecte
the ground before purchase, and MI
Cousin has seen the ground opene
mp number of times and has teste
it during the past II years with tn
view of ultimately working it b
this process. 1t was decided to pu
machinery on this bar during tn
coming summer, aud in view Of II
creased valuation of similar adjaceI
property, resulting from successfI
operations on our part, IL was deeme
} advisable to purchase all availab
territory that could be covered by OF
bitches before starting active work.
A large crew of men will be put
work Immediately extending Il
bitches, and it is possible to have ol
or two elevators in operation on Il
1 new ground in GO days Numerol
improvements and enlargement wi
: be made to our entire equipment al
it is proposed to bring the waite
from both forks Of Calico Creek al
D the intervening gulches to bear up,

der on the harp, last night gave two exam
pies of his remarkable ability with this diff

under the baton of their young conductor,
A. F. Pinto. They came last on the bill
and their efforts were highly appreciated.
Mile. Albertine Melich and her wonderfully
trained parrots and cockatoos, one Of them
doing somersaults across the stage and

which consists Of four acts and eight

SHOOTING ARRAY.
One italian Laborer Wounds Another
and Then Escapes,

Detectives Muller, Pratt and Horne were
called from their homes late last night to
investigate the shooting of one italian la
borer by another in the Italian camp in
Southeast Washington. The officers of the
fifth precinct and Policeman Oriani, the
italian interpreter. We're upon the scene
shortly after the shooting was done. So far
as the police could ascertain the man who
was shot was Ferro Carmelo. The name
of his alleged assailant was given as Louis
Polomatin.
From some of the occupants of the shanty
it was learned that buckets of beer had
been purchased during the evening and it
was stated Polomatin had not contributed
his share Of the expense. This did not
please Carmelo, and he so stated. There
vas not much of an argument engaged in,
so far as the police could learn, and the
man who used the weapon, it is charged,
left the party soon after the ARRAY began.
1t Is thought he went to his bunk to pro-
cure weapon.
During the excitement which followed
the shooting Polomatin escaped. The
wounded man was taken to Providence
Hospital, where DR.. Bayne performed an
operation The patients condition this
me rning was such that the doctors held out
hope for his recovery. AS soon as the
police were Informed OF the shooting they re-
moved the wounded man to the hospital
and started the search for Polomatin He
had been employed on the railroad work
near Manassas, Va, and an officer was
sent there today to look for him.

Eva Tanguay at the Columbia
Next Weel

Miss Eva Tanguay who has been Lending
her artistic personality to many comedy
stars for the past few seasons, Is now a
star herself, and if contemporaneous re-
views are to be credited, a particularly
brilliant one.
1.-The Sambo Girl" is the name Of the
musical comedy vehicle upon which Miss
Tanguay arrived. and the strenuous 1.-THE
Coincidence will present it at the Columbia
next week. supported by a carefully Sc
lected company of associate fun-makers
and perfectly stunning chorus.
Miss Tanguay's methods are distinctly
unique and practically inimitable. No one
has yet successfully copied her laugh-com-
Polling mannerisms. and 1t is safe to say
no one ever will unless assisted by kalei-
doscopc picture machine.
In THE Sambo Girl Miss Tanguay has
found a part that fits her individuality to
a nicely, and she has also surrounded her
self with a cast and chorus that have been
of material assistance in making this lat
est musical play from the pens of Harry
b. Smith and Gustav Kerker one of the
pronounced successes of the budding the
atrical season

Columbia Theater.

At the Columbia Theater last evening a
strong cast of players, with Edward j.
Morgan at the head, gave an entirely ade-
quate production of 1.-The Eternal City"
Hall Gaines powerful drama, which had
its initial performance on any stage in this
city two years ago. On that previous occa-
sion Miss Viola Allen appeared as the star
in the role of Donna Roma, with Mr.. Nor
gan in the character Of David Rossi as
leading support. In the performance at
the Columbia this week Mr.. Morgan is the
stellar attra ction while Miss Aliens former
role is portrayed by Miss Janet Waldorf.
Each scene Of the piece contains something
of the virile and stirring, which appeals
forcefully to the dramatic instincts of the
auditor. Nor is the dominance of all these
scenes confined wholly to one or two char
acters. There is distribution of opportunity
among several of the principals, and in the
performance last evening the stirring Scenes
and incidents were depicted effectively.
The character of David Rossi, the Italian
patriot, Is aptly suited to the natural tenn
permanent and to the intense conscientious
methods of MI. Morgan. He seems to have
improved with familiarity in his imperson-
alton of the role since his former appear
ance here, and he abandons himself to the
spirit of the character with that same con-
vincing earnestness that has characterized
his acting since his first great success as
John Storm in 1.-The Christian Miss Wal
DORIS appearance as Donna Roma met with
unqualified approval. Her appeal to the
sympathies of the audience in the fourth
act met with complete and spontaneous re-

was properly reverent and sympathetic in
his impersonation of the pope. Mr.. w. +.

Rossi, gave a splendid and satisfying in
depreciation of the part, and was given
several hearty curtain calls at the end of
the court scene.

4 Lafayette Opera House.

Washington saw another performance OF
King Dodo" last evening, this time at the
Lafayette. The merry music, picturesque
costumes and rollicking humor created
much the same impression as they have be-
fore in this city, which is to say they sent
the audience into commissions of laughter
and drew forth considerable applause. The
"Dodo'' of Charles w. Meyers left little to
be found fault with. 1t was natural that
the appearance of Miss Margaret Burn
ham, formerly of this city, should attract
more than the usual amount of attention.
She was the recipient last evening of two
bouquets Miss Elvia Crox, as Queen Lii,
and Miss Lackey, as Piola, received their
share of the general applause, and Messrs.
Donnely and Wooley, as DR.. Fizz and
Prof Nudge, respectively, were recog-
niZed.
