BURR MCINTOSH AT HEAD
OF BIG COMPANY NEXT WEEK

What appears at this writing to be
atrical season is the announcement
that "A Gentleman From Mississippi"
with the original cast which ran for
months in Chicago this summer, break
ing all records for a summer run In
the Windy City, is headed this way
and will be the attraction at the Ker-
redge theater on Thursday, Nov. A.
The cast is headed by Burr Mcintosh
and VIII Deming, and includes every
player who made a success in Chicago
during the past summer. The newspa-
pers and magazines have been filled
with praise of this company for so
long that the title of the play Is a
very familiar one and the theater-
godrs of the city have been anxiously
awaiting the time when they could
witness what is said to be the most
delightful comedy of the past few sea-
sons.
Mr. Mcintosh. considered everywhere
as the best exponent of southern parts
on the stage, has been engaged in the
Photographic and publishing business
for nine years, having founded the
Burr Mcintosh Monthly magazine, but
was induced to take up his theatrical
work again when he was convinced
that Senator Langdon, the gentleman
from Mississippi was such a strong
and pleasing part.
Will Deming is well known here,
having made pronounced success as
Perry Wainwright in THE Man of the
Hour" and as Bud" Haines, the re-
porter. who afterwards becomes the
senator's private secretary, he has the
part of his career.
In addition to these two clever play
ers, the Chicago cast intact. will be
seen here. 1t includes Mary Moran,
Evelyn Moore. Genevieve Kane, Ella
Aubrey. Beulah Watson, William VOL
colt, Charles Stedman, Harry Stubs,
Henry w. Pemberton, George Il. Mil
Ter. NJ. w. Rale, Harry Robinson and
about ten others.

Ives of this city. "A young mining en-
gineer, and a number of miners, are
down in the Isle Royale mine, at a
depth of about fifteen hundred feet,
where they have been held since early

skip rope. The party had gone down
to do some engineering work, and
shortly after reaching the level on
which they were to be engaged, the
rope attached to the skip was broken
and up to this morning had not yet
been repaired. The men had only ex-
pected to remain underground short
time and took no food with them. one
of the men climbed to the surface by
means of the ladderways, but the 9TH
ers preferred to stay below until they
could come up in the skip. Mr.. Ives
had number of valuable instruments
which he did not care to risk by at
tempting to carry them up the ladders,
and he did not wish to leave them be-
hind.

HANCOCK RESERVE OFFICERS
DISCREDlT ESCANABA STORY

Officers OF the Yantic and of the
Hancock naval reserves division do
not take stock in the story printed
In the Escanaba Mirror and reproduced
In the News yesterday relative TO the
reasons for the changes on the Yantic
now being made at the Sturgeon Bay
ship yards. II was stated in the
story that the Yantic is to be equipped
with four inch guns, taken from the
Nashville, replacing the present ar
mament of the local training shin,
owing to objections made by the Brit
ish government relative to the naval
reserve ships on the great lakes. An
officer of the Hancock division when
interviewed yesterday regarding the
story stated that 1t was all "rot."
I'm the first place." he stated, "the
article says that the Nashville was
brought from the seacoast by Detroit
reserves. AS a matter OF fact II was
the Chicago naval militia that navi-
gated the boat to the great lakes and
the ship is now assigned to the Him
OILS naval reserves. The alterations
and improvements TO the Yantic which
are to be made at Sturgeon Bay, have
been under consideration for the past
two years, and comprise the rebuild
ing of the chart house and deck, re-
moving one of the masts and the maxi
ing of general repairs, which will
make her easier to handle. AS to the
guns. the ship is now equipped with
six Founders. which will be replaced
by four inch guns,a considerably
heavier piece of armament, the pres
ent six Founders having caliber of
only two and a half inches. The des-
patch announcing the intention of the
government to equip the Yantic and
the Don Juan de Austria with the
new guns stated that they had been
SHIPPED from Washington, which would

equipment will also comprise sub-cal-
iber target practice apparatus, con-
sisting OF extra devices fitting the
breech of the four-inch guns by means
Of which ordinary rifle ammunition
may be used instead of the more ex-
pensive shells for which the four-inc n
guns are built. The Escanaba writer
appears TO have got confused i'm regard
to six Founders and six-inch guns,
in making his comparison with the
four-inch guns

1t is too early to make an estimate
on the copper producers statement.
Current heavy sales of course will not
reflect until December and January
and then domestic shipments should
show record figures. Probably three
hundred million pounds of copper have
been sold i'm the last three weeks ana
il is doubtful if any of it was sold at
less than 13 cents a pound.
We call attention to the speculative
possibilities of La Sale. There is evil
dence that it is being accumulated at
present prices by interests which are
close to the management of the Calu-
met and Hecla company, interests
which should be in position to know
the physical condition of the mines,
and we are of the opinion that there
will be some real action in this issue
