Coming Attractions
New National Theater.

Henrietta Crosman, who holds a high
place in the esteem of play-goers in Wash
ington, as elsewhere, comes to the New
National tomorrow night, when she opens
weeks engagement in "All-of-a-sudden
Peggy" The play is a comedy by Ernest
Denny and last season attained long run
at the Duke of Yorks Theater, London
From what has been said Of the play both
in London and in this country it would ap-
pear to possess much cleverness and orgi-
nality. Miss Crosman has proved anew her
skill in the portrayal of impulsive, uncon-
ventonal, but tender-hearted femininity.
Miss Crosman has been presenting All-of-
a-sudden Peggy" this season, and with a
degree of success that ranks with her pfevi-
GUS notable achievements. "All-of-a-sudden
Peggy" is comedy of the present, with
English persons and scenes. Mr.. Denny is
credited with originality and cleverness in
| its construction, and with having created
amusing character types and evolved drolf
and merry complications. The dialogue is
said to be unusually prolific in, wit. Miss
Crosman In All-of-a- sudden Peggy. Is
again mischievous, prank-loving Irish girl,
as she was in Mistress Nell' and as Sweet
Kitty Bellairs. The character is Peggy
O'Mara, who, with her mother is a guest
of Lord Anthony Crackenthorpe at his
country house. The presence of the widow
O'Mara and Peggy greatly perturbs Lord
Anthonys mother and uncle and other
relatives, who see scheme to capture him
as a husband for Peggy, fate whose threat
fills them with forebodings, as 1t would
mean their Punishment from the plenitude
of his home and income. This marriage
project is the widow O'Mara's ambition for
| her daughter. Peggy herself views it with
rebelious spirit. She is In no wise minded
| to marry Lord Anthony. Yet the situation
affords her gleeful opportunity to tease
| Lord Anthonys relatives by aggravating
| their apprehension. She plays upon their
| fear and further continually shocks their
sense of propriety. All the while, she Is
planning that her mother shall become the
wife of Lord Anthony, whom she sees is
thus inclined. A younger son of the house.

 Although there was not such an ac- -Gye market today as was expected, there was good demand for stocks at prevailing prices. The many reports regarding the fiotation of new proper sies by Thos. F.

NEW MINING CAMP
 BREAKS THE RECORD
CITY OF 5000 PEOPLE SPRINGS UP
 ON THE DESERT.
Six Weeks Ago There Were Four or Five Miners There-New City Is
 Made Base of Supplies for Prospec- tors Who Radiate in All Directions.

A city of 5000 people where six weeks ago there were but three or four lonely miners, is the record made by Manhattan. the new gold camp for " miles north of Tonopah. according to Joseph A. Brandt one of the princi- pal stockholders of the American De Company, of Carson City, who is in Bisbee at the pres ent time looking after some mining He said last night at the Copper Queen Hotel:
 Tt Is enough to make your head swim, the way those camps are springing up. Just as soon as one gets established il is used as a base of supplies for larger number Of min CTS who radiate out in all directions, and these men are making strikes 50 fast it is hard to keep track of them.
 Manhattan was the last sensation. Six weeks ago there were perhaps four men there. Last week established a sort of a banking institution in the town. Of course, it's all desert coun- try, with no trees and yery little water. and that was what made it so difficult AohoPaA He-' oNPPA-SN

 Mir. Brandt was very enthusiastic over the mining prospects in that VI
 cinity. He stated, however, that he believed that in a few years Bisbee
 would be one of the biggest, if not the largest, mining camp in the world. Ht says the rush to Manhattan is duo largely to the recent rich discoveries
 but that many would invest there who
 would realize nothing from their mon Icy.
