a few miles from Piedmont, and whether the ore is found in lodges or not they are convinced that they have one of the richest deposits in the country. Their diamond drill has gone down to depth of 120 feet without finding the bottom of the deposit, which they believe is a continuous ledge
 The fact that their mines are situated on a high mountain and the presence of foot and hanging walls tend to strengthen their belief that they have discovered the ledge, and If this belief is found to be correct they will at once begin work looking to the extension of the Seaboard Air Line to their property. Their ore is easily mined it being possible to run it down chutes from a depth of 800 feet. and this fact has been of great ad- vantage to the owners in securing tinan- cial backing for mining.

It is we'll enough for the republicans

strong tendency toward standpatism.
Governor Hughes appears to be
backing up the president in the de-
mand that the party proceed with tar

The republicans have simply got to
do something, and they have got to
keep good times with us. If they neg

some forty players, each of whom has
made a reputation for him or herself
during the run of the piece. OF the
stars, little need be said, their unique
personality, their grotesQue acting, the
inimitab!e manner in which they rem
der their songs, the awkward graceful
steps. with which they dance, all go
towards making their performance one
of the most p easing and enjoyable on
the stage. OF the play itself, much
has been said, suffice that it is We

music, artistic marches, splendid Choir
uses and groupings and picture pos
ings, the likes of which has never been
seen in musical comedy before.

for their adaptibility to properly por
tray the several characters which have
been assigned to them.
