"The Gay Matinee Girl which
is the title OF the attraction to be
seen at the opera house Friday
March 10. can truthfully be
termed veryquintessence OF fun.
Unlike most musical comedies it
has a plot, and this is the main
responsible for the many ludi-
crous mishaps ands implications
that round out two hours and a
half OF genuine merriment, the
company that will present this
operatic comedy, is the original
company from the Casino theatre
in New York. s'The Gay Matinee
Girl is a merry madcap concoc-
ton ofhilarity, and as such leads
the world in laughter, the aud
fence has yet to be met with
that has not been captivated
and convulsed by this incompa-
rable play and its many special
features, each a paragon initself.

Mrs. Dinnie and myself left Mi

very pleasant trip, and while we
saw some very fine country and
some beautiful scenery, we also
saw very poor country. We
were very much disappointed on
our arrival here to find snow on
the ground, and the weather
cold and disagreeable. But we
have nothing to complain ofnow,
as we have the finest kind Of
summer weather. Everyone is
out enjoying the sunshine with
out wraps on. Hot Springs is a
beautiful little city, and certain
lN a fine place, for anyone to
come to for enjoyment, and also
for health; but would not
trade Minot for half a dozen
places like Hot Springs.

There is very little harmony In the
mining laws established by the vari
ous states. In regard to the size OF
claim, some states allow the full
maximum area allowed by the federal
law ii, ,50Ox6OO feet. Other states
allow claims unly one. half, and In
some cases unly One-quarter the area
allowed by the federal statute; for
example, In Montana, mining claims
are 100 feet long by 600 feet wide
that IL to say, 800 feet on each side
OF the vein located. In Colorado the
width cannot exceed 300 feet, or
100 feet on each side of the vein.
In some counties of Colorado, the
local regulations conHns the width to
$50 feet, or seventy -five feet on each
side of the discovery shaft. In some
safe, the law requires the prospector
to do his location work within a short
period, such as. ninety days, where

Much has been said and written
about the promoter, but IL has been
left to the Dillon, Wyoming, Double
jack to compare him to nurse maid !;
which suggests the idea to The Miner
that this conception, extended fur
ther. would lead one to designate the
prospector M fiat, barrea- breasted
mother aud tho investor ~ the wet
nure. The Doublejack says:
"Aud yet, II the devil always got
his due, the much maligned promoter
should be credited with playing the
most impoi tant part Of the trinity
of individuals who make the mines
the prospector, tho promoter aud the
investor. For prospec'or hnds the
mine aud his work IL done, the in-
ve,tor invests his money and waits
for returns. The promoter tells of
its existence To the men who have
money; he IL the go between for the
men who have the prospect aud no
money aud the men who have the
money aud no prospect. The pro-
moter " the nurse maid, who adopts

millions to the wealth Of the east,

aud Nh army Of prospectors who made
their little stake through the aid OF

roots"
The Sumpter miner. [volume] (Sumpter, Or.) 1899-1905, 1905-03-15

The mining law amendment bill,
introduced Ia the lower house Of the
Prussian diet, provides that owners
must operate their mines when there
is u pro ospect of profit, or when their
suspension is detrimental to public
interest. In the event Of owners not
complying with an order ut the min
ing department to resume work, the
latter is empowered to institute pro-
ceedings To deprive the owners OF
their property and In the I,eantine
to appoint Nh official To operate the
mines. That 5ill certainly must have
been drafted by n Willamette valley
farmer.
