cd working east. At Delaware avenue
the iron tops were taken from the man
holes. and the current is said to have
been turned off. Mangum, one of the
most experienced trolley slot cleaners
in the employ Of the company. lowered
himself into the hole. having in his hand
the little hoe. The other members OF
the gang were either shoveling up the
dirt thrown out of the manhole back
of Mangum. or taking OFF the lids OF
those In front Of him. Because Of this
fact, IL is unknown in what manner

believed that Mangum, laboring under
the Impression that there was no cur

fact that the steel rod was charged
with several thousand volts of electrici-

SUPERB SCENIC PLAY SATISFIES
"a Royal Slave Proves Its Claims
to Excellence.

While Turner theatre was not crowd
ed at the entertainment given by the
Royal Slave company Saturday
evening there was a good house and
the play apparently gave excellent
satisfaction. The frequent applause
that greeted the players showed that
they had the audience with them
The principal figure, of course, is
the royal slave himself the last of the
Montezumas. This difficult part was
excellently taken, and the support,
while not as strong as it might be was
good and bore out the reputation of
the company excellently
The play without thesplendid scenery
that is carried would be considered
ordinary, but there is no deception in
the advertising of the original settings
that the company puts on. It is all
there and more.
The afternoon matinee was not so
we'll attended, the audience being most
ly children, whose appreciation of a
play of this nature is necessarily
limited.

MINISTER WITNESSED MASSACRE
Rev. D. A. Richardson Had Rare
Experiences.

1t was not generally known in this
city at the time Mr.. Richardsonpreach
ed here few Sunday ago, that he had
a history such as few men possess.
Since he was here he has been call
ed to the church of which Rev. NJ. B.
Morris was pastor in Minneapolis.
and the acceptance of the call leads
the Minneapolis Journal to give bit
of the history of his career.
Several times he was taken for a spy
and one time sent to the military pri-
son and kept there for three months,
and was on the point Of being executed
when an order came for his release.
During the seven years of mission
work Mr.. Richardson was stationed
at ErZeroum, Armenia. With his wife
and little daughter Isabelle, then 3
weeks old, he went through the horrors
of the first massacre. The family shell
tered fifty refugees in the house, all
barely escaping with their lives, for
the windows were broken in, the doors
were smashed and the fight for life was
a bitter one. The day following the
massacre Mrs. Richardson picked up
forty huge stones in her front room.

SPEAK WELL OF MINING PROPERTY
ST. Peter Men Visit Idaho Consoi-
dated Mines.


Recently J. B. Gieske, president of
the Idaho Consolidated Mining and
! Development Co., took a party of
men, some of whom were from st. Peter,
to his property in Idaho for the pur-
pose Of proving to them that the IN
vestment was a good one, and upon
their return they are very enthusiastic
in speaking of the prospects and have
arranged to take up large block of
the stock.
The property is a silver-lead mine
and is contained almostin one solid
block. tt becoming quite we'll known
in this part OF the country as one of
the best prospects onthe market. The
mines are being worked and ore is
taken out daily, but the lack of ex-
pensive machinery and additional
facilities for putting the product on
the market makes it necessary to sell
stock to get the money.
Shares have never sold below par
and from one dollar they have adj
Vanced to two and Mr.. Gieske says in
a short time the price of shares will not
be less than five dollars.
