Miss Mercy is a queenly appearing woman/and in her varied roles as en- tertainer in her fathers court, as the lover of Marias, the young Roman, and finally as his slayer. through mis- taken identity, and her own suicide and confession or faith in the Chris
 tian religion she displayed the highest order of talent J. Harrison Taylor as
 Marias, could not have been better se-
 lected either for his physique or his accomplishment and L. E. Martelle as the high priest and chief con-
 spirator in the tragedy carried well
 his unlovable part. C. D. Cubine. as
 Pilate was good in his portrayal of the
 Incorporating magistrate yet weak
 and vacillating. Miss WinlOche and C. B. Archer as the king and queen, did very well and all the other charac-
 ters were very well sustained, espec-
 ially Andrew, Peter and Judas Iscar-
 tot, the latter appearing best in the
 moment of his realization of his awful
 crime and the spurning of the silver
 he had so fearfully earned.
 The story is that of the great pas sion in all its tragic details, with the
 romance and its grewsome ending, of
 Salome and Marias. The scenery alone told the story to all present who are famiar with the scriptural recital
 and the characters but enlivened the
 picture and carried through the fate full incidents of the lives of Marias and Salome.
 1t is a performance that though en- tertaining. one hesitates about refer ring to as an entertainment. It is rather, a study. or if not a study it ap- peals in the light of worship or an in cident sought. efat present impress sions might be more deeply engraved
 on the hearts of those who witness it. It possesses no feature of comedy. As soon would d person of culture seek
 the quickening of his disabilities after | once becoming interested in the pre- sentation as he would in attending di- vine worship. The impulse to laugh . is not present. even if something fun ny should occur. on the contrary, one ! cannot but feel to some extent that he is for the moment living in the atmos- 1 phere of those scenes that attended the birth O. Christian civilization.
 ! To the believer the influence is that
 of stronger faith while to the unbe- { liever there must come some feeling of ! doubt concerning his attitude and certainly of at least respectful admir- ation for the lessons that are incul- cated Though the play deals with all ! that is most sacred to the Christian, 1 it is but an illustrated recital of that I which purports to be historical, is ac- | cOmpanied by no unseemly levity, and therefore cannot be construed as sac religious or offensive to the faith that ! has been handed down through the ages. And there is nothing to encOur- age the scoffer. who if he be not re- spectful. will do penance by being un- comfortable.

the only section of the district which Mir. Tremaine thoroughly examined. is three miles wide by fifteen miles long. The veins on all these claims can be traced for hundreds of feet and run in width from one to fourteen feet of high grade ore. the mineralized depos- it's often being much wider than that The veins are not blind or misleading but are easily defined by the surface crOppings.
 The properties are all located on a contact between lime and prophyry except the old Maid. which is in a pOrphyry formation. The average of all these ores Mir. Tremaine says would be about $60 tu the ton as near as can be determined by his sampling though as the excursionists have seen, many samples will run up to fifty and sixty thousand dollars per ton. No sane person, however. expects to find large quantity of ore that will main tain that high valuation. In the Blue Slate, for instance from which the most hypnctizing samples were taken the larger or main formation is chiefly copper. though that portion of the claim from which the gold samples came was rather feeder to the larger vein and was almost exclusively gold found in a sort of a blue slate rock, from which the name was derived. MT Tremaine says that his remarks are not designed to infer that these five claims are all in the district that

that the Beardsley camp is the best in the United States today Charles E. Larson is in charge of the shearing camp, and yesterdays record shows the able manner in which the plant is being conducted. Visitors there re- gently state that the general manage ment of the camp is all that could be desired From the time the sheep come into the corral, tilr the wool is in the car, no moment is lost or vast ed. and there is no unnecessary hand ling. This is the only camp in the country where the loading is done di- rect from the corral to the car. So conveniently and quickly is it trans ported. that no damage can result to the wool from possible rain. By mak- ing use of a horse to handle the wool from the corral to the car, this part of the work can be carried on to much better advantage than in any other camp.
 Beardsley at any other time in the year is merely a section house. Now it has taken on the appearance of white city, with its thirty or more tents Wnlcn are the men SlSepllS quarters and the long mess tent, with a seating capacity for 100 men, who are daily provided for with first class cuisine. At night, when the white city
 is agleam with lighted tents, and flickering bon fires about which the groups gather. it presents a pictur- esque silence-embOsOmed in the prim- i Ordial silence of the great desert, stretching to far, gloomy mountain ranges crouched down upon the sands This is presenting the side to please ! the esthetic tastes. Speaking com mercially. the idea of the whole plant i originated with A. C. Mcqueen who | has given it his personal attention and
 efforts. The great success which the
 camp has always bOasted. is due in no small measure to Mir. Mcqueen and
 MT. Campbell. who have combined
 their Knowledge of sheaving camps needs, to the ultimate satisfaction of
 everyone concerned. It is very fitting ! therefore that this camp should have l the honor of making and breaking
 world records as the seasons go by.

mineral displays Were made for the benefit of the eXcursionists.
 It is not desirable to draw any com parisons that might seem preiudiced in favor of one town or another. for it is true that none of these towns made as good a mineral display as they might have done: iR fact no place ever does. and mineral diplay is not necessarily the proof of numerous large mines. That comes only by an examination of the properties. But it is true that BOuse on that occasion made the finest display and a stop at any of the places would give material enough for many good stories. How ever, it was the good fortune of the writer to meet one man, w. D. Ire maine a mining engineer of Pasadena, who has been at or near BOuse since the 30th of January. His time has been devoted since then to an eXamin- atiOn of five groups in the interest of 'Messrs. Johnson X Lyon of Los An geleS. and it is the purpose of this article to make a little specific men tion of these properties from facts gleaned at that time. It will be of spe- cial interest to those who went on the excursion of the Maricopa County Commercial Club, for many of the most attractive specimens seen last Sunday. came from the properties in question
 The names of these groups are the "Old Maid" Hearts Desire" Flying Dutchman,' Blue Slate" and Little Butte" The "Old Maid" is strictly a gold property though the Blue Slate" and Flying Dutchman" are rich in both gold and copper. while the other two are strictly copper properties. That is of course speaking from present in dications, for nothing but prospect work has been done on any of them. The deepest shaft on any of them is forty five feet.

The audience was not large. which is accounted for partly by the fact that there has been an almost daily entertainment of merit for some time past that has been somewhat of a drain on the purses of theater goers, and parly because the public was not fully appreciative of the na- ture and perfection of the production.

MINERAL STOREHOUSE
 B0USE AND VICINITY
Comment of w. D. TremaIne, a Cali fornia Mining Engineer, on the Bouse District.

As everybody is aware who has been reading The Republican for the last year, that section of Arizona opened up to the world by the new A. X C.
 railroad is one of the richest mineral districts on earth. There are scores of properties under development, some of them producing. and hundreds of prospects located and hundreds more that have not yet been staked. It would requireAa book to tell with any degree of thoroughness of the merits of all the mining claims that depend upon Wenden, Salome, Vicksburg
 Bouse and Parker for their supply stations and this article will make no pretense of doing so. Those who have read of last Sundays excursion are aware that at all these points fine

TWO WORLD DfC0RDS
 BROKEN Al BfARDSLtY
Yesterday One Shearer Handled 325 Head in Nine Hours, the T ota Rec ord Great.

Two world records were broken yes terday at the Beardsley sheep shearing camp. an achievement which again brings Arizona to the fore. and estab- fishes the assertion beyond the point of controversy. that the camp has the most rapid and cleaBest gang of shear CTS ever gathered together in the United States. Thirty men in g hours yesterday sheared 65I2 head Of sheep, a record, and an average of practically 220 head to the man.
 The other record made was, for the number of sheep shorn by one man in a single day. MT. - Hill broke the world record of BIO head held by Wyne, his tally showing 325 shorn in hours. Bowdle took second place with a tally of 309. The shearers are paid at the rate of 1-4 cents per head. Hill for his days work received s2356 and Bowdle s22.4O, from which figures some idea can be had of the high re- muneration they get for their hard labor. when it is added that at Beard sley they are given the best of board for $1 per day. The total sum paid out for yesterdays shearing was S47S.97, or an average of s15.95 per man for the 30 shearers.
 The sheep sheared yesterday belong ed to James A Pitts, who has a flock of 20,000. He expressed himself as most highly pleased with the work and the record. The Arizona Sheep Shear ing company of which Colin Campbell is the president. is doing the work and it is conceded by sheepmen generally

are worth while. It is only that small area that he examined and the same ore zone may extend a great deal fur ther while there may be others in that section equally as good.
 He says-the section he is visited is practically all staked out; nevertheless it is an attractive one to the operator or those who desire to encourage the present owners. for few of them are prepared to work extensively and are willing to sell either their entire hold ings or interests in them at very req sonable figures to others who will de- velop>them. He says that in five years devoted to examining mines. he has never seen such showing anywhere as he has found in the vicinity of Bouse.
