The recent fire at WarrenS, the Ia
nous old historical mining camp OF
Idaho county, in which much that re-
manned to remind US of earlier days
was swept away. is cause for much
timers in this city. Warrens is one OF
the oldest mining camps in Idaho and
in it's earlier day was mecca for the
gold seeker.
In going over old newspaper files
the Idaho Signal Of Saturday, March
20. 1873, has the following interesting
article under the head OF From War
rens Diggings:" I'VE have been per-
mitted to make the following extracts
from private letter addressed to a
gentleman in this city. by Richard
Hurley. Esq, an assayer and metalurg-
list, relating to operations in quartz in
the Warrens camp during the past sea-
son.
.'Warrens, March Z, 1873, Dear Sir:
l presume that you would like to
know the particulars about the (Res-
cue) mine l send you by this express
small package of ore that took out
of the ledge the last day they worked
in the mine. The ledge carried nine
inches of this class of quartz 1t is, in
fact, the richest gold quartz that !
have ever seen in this camp. The las,
crushing of four days with five stamps
amount to one thousand and twenty
one dollars. There was about thirteen
| tons from this quartz send you the
sample of. They struck that ore three
days before they quit working. They
| were troubled very much with water
They had to bail out six to eight hun.
dred gallons of water an hour. !
The last paid five hundred dollars owe,
and above expenses. 1t took ten mer
to fight water and three taking out
quartz. The mine paid profit OF
each run from the LIST of December te
the present time, with the exception Of
the run before the last, of from $3.50 "a
$500. The run before last was badl,
managed. They broke the dies and
ground up the copper plates that were
inside the battery. They lost twenty.
eight pounds of quick silver in thu
run. The Rescue mine looks, to.
day, a thousand percent better thar
ever before. 1t looks like old times
Almost everyone you meet has spe.
cimen or two in his pocket The
way they worked the mine (s as fol.
lows):
They sunk a shaft on the east leve
about $50 feet from the tunnel or cross
cut. They sunk the shaft forty fee,
and, for some reason. started the levels
fourteen feet above the bottom. so tina,

THEATRICAL DOINGS
IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.--The theatre
cal season is in fun swing and there
are many attractions of interest on the
boards.
The biggest success of the season, so
far, is Vim. II. Crane in a comedy
drama called Business is Business"
1T the Criterion theater. The play Is a
translation from the French of Octave
Mirbeaus play, made by Robert Hick-
ers. Mr.. Crane is seen i'm part diff
ferent than anything he has ever be-
fore played. The character he portrays
is that of a shrewd and INSCRIPTIONS
business man who has amassed an i'm
mense fortune through his cunning and
foresight. He does not believe in God
and is cruel to his family. For want
If space ! eannot go into the details of
the story of the play, suffice 1t to say
that it is a story that will hold your
interest especially with the splendid
acting of Mr.. Crane. Splendid is hard
ly strong enough to describe his acting.
/ might say that it is wonderful and
the New York critics are all of the
one opinion that II is the best part in
which Mr.. Crane has ever been seen.
His support is excellent and includes
Joseph Wheelock, Jr., and Katherine
Grey.
Another play which has been pro-
nounced lasting success Is The
College Widow a strictly American
play by George AIDE who Is the author
Of THE County Chairman" and THE
Sultan of Sulu." 1t is being produced
at the Garden theater and II is safe
to bay that the house will be crowded
at every performance Of the engage

love with a well bred man of wealth
who has been attracted by her charm
ing nature. This man does not tell
her that he is married and encourages

the levels were over the rich deposits
of ore. Too get at this ore they had to
sink one of those levels and boil the
water into a sluice SO that it would
run into the stump hole. You can inn
agine the disadvantage they worked
under. They struck this ore about
sixty feet west. They first struck a
feeder and followed it up under the
track of the upper level, SO that they
did not strike it in running the upper
level. There are several feeders, rich
in gold, all running into the ledge be-
low the lower level. -

favorable than they were year ago.

quartz and I could see gold in every

not much choice. I have seen some of
the specimens with some of the men

In the old Hunt burying ground, at
Hunts point, Is the grave and monu-
ment of the American poet, Joseph
Rodman Drake. His resting place is
now threatened curiously enough by
the proposed opening of a Whittier
street through the plot. and the North
Side Board of Trade is objecting
strongly to,the dissertation. Those who
are protesting against the tearing up
Of the plot declare that there are few
places OF such limited extent about

| Instructive historical "Reminiscences OF

obliteration or mutilation Of the old

worst kind and a disgrace to the city OF

what ironical that the name of re-
/ nawned Quaker poet should be given

The suggestion is made that there be
an improvement here in the form OF
theater tickets such as Charles Froh-
man has introduced at the Duke of
York theater in London. The tickets
give the name Of the play, the hour at
which the performance begins ard The
side of the house-left or right-on
which the seat will be found. Mr..
Frohman's name is also printed on the
tickets, as well as the name Of the au-
thor OF the play. Next year. 1t Is pre-
dicted, the cast of the play will be
4 given on the back of the tickets. One
theater in New York now has the hour
OF the performance printed on it's tick
i cts. and 1t is believed that the innova-
ton in London will be adopted here.
4 Memories Of Boss" Tweed and other
equally noted criminals whose records
i city of New York are recalled by the
passing of the famous old Ludlow
street Jail as a detention place for
criminals or persons chaEged with
crime. Henceforth the prison will be
used only to house offenders in civil
cases. Tweed built the Jail, and it was
the irony OF fate that he should be i'm
d prisoned and die there. Next to Tweed
the most noted prisoners in Ludlow
street were James d. Fish and Ferd-
inand Ward. the men who ruined Cen
eral Grant. Whitaker Wright, the
English promoter, who killed himself
after receiving word of his sentence In
London. was the latest important pris-
oner.
