"AT SILVER CREEK"

A thoroughly enjoyable play, with an
interesting plot well worked out, finely
acted and adequately presented as to
scenery, appointments and costuming-
this must be said Of the delightful
comedy drama "At Silver Creek" pro-
duced last night at the Star Theater
by the Mack Swain Company. 1t deals
with the fortunes Of an orphan girl
left to the care Of four old men, her
fathers friends, of her early life and
up-bringing amid the rude surroundings
of Western mining camp, her sub
sequent removal to England and more
refined influences, and her final return
to the home Of her childhood, and her
devoted guardians. As Sunday the
waif, the ward Of the rough, but big
hearted old miners, Cora King Swain
was charmingly natural, delightfully."-
original, thoroughly convincing, subtiIy
and ably portraying the gradual devel-
opment from the care.free, light heart
ed, romping girl, to the cultured and
refined woman Of good society. In her
lighter scenes, her mirth and jollity
were delicious; in her more serious
work, her efforts were true to nature
and met with unqualified approval. As
the four old guardians, Messrs. Swain,
Layne, Hutchinson and Berrell were
delightfully."- quaint and humorous and
provided the comedy portion of the
entertainment. Bert Frank was an i'm
pressive "Col. Brinthorpe," Jas. Wright
a conscientious "Tom 0xley," and Daisy
D'Arva dignifed "Sister Margaret"
The same bill will be repeated tonight,
Saturday and Sunday nights, and at

OUR sHREwD GOVERNMENT.

Russia would like to borrow $780,
100000. If Russia had held on to Alas
ka until now, and the world had come
to know as much Of it's value as a
Russian possession as it does now when
it is an American possession, she could
sell half Of it for the loan she desires
to make-$360,000,000.
Uncle Sam would not sell Alaska for
$l,OO00OO,OdO, yet he paid only ST.
100000 less than forty years ago.
Your Uncle Sam has always driven a
good bargain, whenever he has gone
into the real estate business.
That was good bargain when more
than 100 years ago he took over the
Northwest Territory. That is worth
quite a number of billions now, but
he paid small price.
Then look at the bargain he made in

THE LOCAL MARKET
Investors Holding Aloof But Holders
Remain Confident.

So many deals are pending that the
atmosphere is charged with the electri-
cal forces of expectation and feverish
interest, and considerable activity is
certain to result on the settlement of
any one of dozen transactions.
The Five Points people are mining
actively and as good portion of their
development work is in ore the pros
poets are flattering.
1t is possible that Consolidated Mines
and Development Co. will bond their
property in few days and that active
work will be resumed in the near
future.
Rumors are plentiful regarding the
operations of the Michigan buyers now
in the field, and it is more than prob
able that other important deals will be
closed before they decide they have
enough.
Very few trades have been con-
sumated during the week but there
have been several bids for good blocks
of Keystone and other leading stocks.
A few shares of Globe-Arizona can
be bought at bargain and will not re-
main on the market but few days.
